A
The summer I was ten, my mother decided to bring us to the world of art. My brother and I were not very excited when we realized what my
学必求其心得，业必贵于专精
mother meant. What she meant was not that we could take drawing classes or painting classes but that we would have to spend one afternoon a week with her at the Fine Arts Museum. Before each visit to the museum，she made us read about artists and painting styles（风格）. It was almost as bad as being in school。

Who wants to spend the summer thinking about artists when you could be with your friends at the swimming pool?
First we had to read about ancient Egyptians（古埃及人）and their strange way of painting faces and then go to look at them at the museum. My 12—year—old brother thought this was so funny, but I was not interested。

Later we had to learn about artists in the Middle Ages who painted people wearing strange long clothing. We had to look at pictures of fat babies with wings and curly (鬈曲的) hair and with no clothes on flying around the edges of paintings. I certainly couldn’t see what was so great about art.
On our last visit to the museum，something happened when I saw a painting by a woman called Mary. In it，a woman was reading to a child。

The colors were soft and gentle, and you could tell by the mother’ s expression how happy she was just to be with the child。

I couldn’t stop looking at this painting ! I wanted to see every painting Mary had ever made！It was really worth looking at so many paintings to find a painter who could interest me so much。

51. The aim of the mother’ s plan was to _________。

A. take them to visit the museum
B. introduce them to the world of art
C。

ask them to read about artists D。

show them different painting styles
52. What was the writer’ s experience in the museum before the last visit?
A. She came to feel her mother’ s love。

B。

She liked many paintings。

C。

She hardly enjoyed herself。

D。

She could understand the pictures of fat babies.
53. What made the writer go through a change that summer？
A. One of Mary’s paintings。

B. A strange way of painting.
C. Artists in the Middle Ages.
D. Her mother' s instruction.
54。

From the text，we can see _________。

A。

the importance of curiosity B。

the effect of art
C。

the value of learning D。

the power of family education
B
I travel a lot, and I find out different “styles" (风格）of directions
学必求其心得，业必贵于专精
every time 1 ask “How can I get to the post office？”
Foreign tourists are often confused （困惑) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names；in Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names。

For example，the Japanese will say to travelers，“Go straight down to the corner。

Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”
In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks。

There are no mountains，so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. lnstead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for
exa mple, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east，and then go another mile.”
People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office？” you ask。

“Oh," they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here。

” You say, “Yes，but how many miles away is it?” They don’t know。

It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your question sometimes。

What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say，‘Sorry，I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know。

” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know" is impolite，They usually give an answer，often a wrong one。

A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!
55。

When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place they usually _________
A. describe the place carefully
B. show him a map of the place
C. tell him the names of the streets
D. refer to recognizable（可辨认的）buildings and places
56。

What is the place where people measure distance in time?
A。

New York. B。

Los Angeles。

C。

Kansas。

D. Iowa。

57。

People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer ________
A. in order to save time B。

as a test C. so as to be polite D. for fun
58. What can we infer from the text?
A. It’s important for travelers to understand cultural differences.
B. It’s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.
C. People have similar understandings of politeness。

D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.

If you've been joining in chat room conversation, or trading e-mail with your e—pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special short form of English。

And you’ve got a sense of humor about short forms like SOHF(=sense of humor failure）to describe Internet newcomers who understand you。

Across the globe，every night teenagers and their elders are "talking” online - many of them all talking at the same time。

It’s fast：try talking to six people at once。

It’s brief：three or four words per exchange. It takes wit（诙谐），and quick fingers。

Want to enter a conversation？Just type PMFJI（=pardon me for jumping in）。

Interested in whom you’re talking to? A/S/L, the nearly universal request to know your pal’s age, sex and location。

You may get 15/M/NY as a response from your pal。

If something makes you laugh，say you’re OTF(=on the floor），or LOL（=laughing out loud），or combine the two into ROTFL(=rolling on the floor laughing)。

And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG （got to go）or TTYL(=talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible，and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can。

Capital letters(大写字母) are left in the dust，except when expressing strong feelings，as it takes more time to hold down the "shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation （标点) is going, too.
