All of a sudden, he felt like a part of the group, and before long he was treated like a leader.Two weeks later, John and his friends led a group of 70 students to collect food for the needed. They collected a school record: 2,854 cans of food in just two hours.John started showing up at school every day and answered questions from teachers for the first time.

He loved and admired the wise man so much that he decided to observe his behavior carefully, believing that if he did everything that the wise man did, then he would also acquire the wise man ’s wisdom. He noticed that the wise man always wore white, and so he went to the market and bought a white rob and wore it every day. The wise man was a vegetarian, and so he stopped eating meat and replaced it with a diet of vegetables. He followed the wise man ’s example in everything he did and was quite sure that he was getting closer to becoming a wise man. After some time, the wise man noticed these changes in his student ’s behavior and asked him why. “I am learning to be just like you,” came the reply. “The white color of my clothes shows the simplicity of my search, the vegetarian food keeps my body clean .”Smiling, the wise man took him to a field where a horse was eating grass. “You have spent all this time looking outside yourself, which is what matters least,” he said. “Do you see that creature there? He has white skin, eats only grass. Do you think he will one day become a wise man?”1. Why did the young man observe the wise man carefully?2.

But why are people left-handed? The answer is in the way the brain works.The brain has two halves — the right half and the left half. The right half controls the left side of the body, and the left controls the right side the body. So right-handed people have a strong left brain, and left-handed people have a strong right brain.The two halves of the brain are about the same size. But each side controls different things. The left side controls language, mathematics, and logic. When you memorize the spelling of words, or when you put things in order, you use your left side. The right side of the brain controls your love of art, color, and music. It is also good at recognizing faces.This does not mean that all artists are left-handed and all accountants are right-handed. There are actually many exceptions. Some right-handers have a strong right brain, and some left-handers have a strong left brain.1. How many people are left-handed?2. Which side of brain do you use when you recognize faces?3. Do you think all artists are left-handed and all accountants are right-handed?Key:1. About 15 percent of the population is left-handed.2. The right side.3. No. There are many exceptions.4Bill Gates was born in Seattle in 1955. Young Gates’ grades weren’t always great. Not until in the eighth grade did he find his passion.

It is five years ago since I came to China as a teacher of English. My classes are designed specially to meet the needs of each student.

One day he went to visit his brother and was astonishedat the beautiful fruit trees. “Look, my brother,” said the gardener, “I will give you an apple tree, the best from my garden, and you, and your children, and your children’s children shall enjoy it.” Then the gardener called his workmen and ordered them to take up the tree and carry it to his brother’s f arm.The next morning the farmer began to wonder where he should plant it. “If I plant it on the hill,” said he to himself, “the wind might shake down the fruit before it is ripe; if I plant it close to the road,passers-by will see it and robe me of its apples — but if I plant it near the door of my house, my children may pick the fruit.” So, after he thought the matter over and over, he planted the tree behind his barn.But the tree bore neither fruit nor flowers the first year nor the second — then the farmer sent for his brother, and said angrily, “You have given me a barren tree instead of a fruitful one!”The gardener laughed and said, “You have planted the tree where it has neither sun nor warmth. How, then, could you expect flowers and fruit? You have planted the tree with a greedy and suspicious heart — how, then, could you expect to reap a rich and generous harvest?”1. What did the gardener give his brother?2. Why did the farmer plant the tree behind the barn?3. Why did the tree bear no fruits?Keys:1. The gardener gave his brother an apple tree.2.

A frog fell into the pot while it was sitting on the stove. While it wasn’t his intention to be stuck in a pot of water, he didn’t try to escape. He was comfortable enough as he was.The lady soon turned on the flame to begin boiling the water. As the water’s temperature began to rise, the frog was able to adjust his body temperature accordingly, so he remained in the pot without trying to do anything to change the situation.However, as the water approached its boiling point, the frog’s body temperature could no longer keep up. He finally tried to jump out of the pot, but with water temperature continuing to increase, it was too late for the frog to save himself.Unlike the frog, who waited until the last minute to try to do anything about the problem he was clearly facing, it’s important to predict the future outcomes of the problems and mediate them before they get past the point of no return. You have to avoid wasting time and take proper action before problems get out of hand or become too much to handle.1. What did the lady want to cook?2. Why did the frog not try to get out of the pot at first?3. What do we learn from the story?Keys:1. The lady wanted to cook pasta for her family for dinner.2. Because the frog was comfortable enough as he was.3. We should not wait until the last minute without trying to do anything about the problem we face./ We should avoid wasting time and take proper action before problems get out of hand or become too much to handle.10Language is not just used for talking. It is our most important communication tool. Through language, we can tell other people what we think, how we feel, and what we need. Civilization itself depends on our ability to communicate.Languages survive, grow, disappear, move from place to place, and change with time. Some languages are ancient, and others are new. There are about 6,000 different living languages around the world today, and there are many thousands more that are already extinct. They might sound different, but they are thought to have come from a single ancient language. Some scientists say that people first spoke to one another about two million years ago.Today, our sophisticated languages get fully used in the magazines, novels, science books, and movies that fill our libraries and bookstores. The long stories we can tell separate us from great apes. Other animals may use various methods to communicate, but we humans send complicated messages through space and time. The development of many languages helped humans move forward toward civilization.1. How many different living languages are there today?2. When did people first spoke to one another according to some scientists?3. How does the development of many languages help humans?Keys:1. There are about 6,000 different living languages around the world today.2. Some scientists say that people first spoke to one another about two million years ago.3.

The weather here in Juárez has become unbearable. With no rains for over a year, the city is suffering from unusually hot weather. Some light showers have been forecast since last month, but all of them have been effective in surrounding areas. Summer has not even started yet, but temperatures have reached 40 degrees centigrade in the past three days. And people have been warned not to go out of their homes — not if you walk on foot, at least — between 11 in the morning and 7 in the evening. Little kids and the elderly are the ones who have suffered the most from this extreme heat wave. They must drink water all the time. To help our audience have a better understanding of this extreme weather, we have invited Prof. Torres from University of Mexico to our studio this evening.1. When did it rain last time in Juárez?2. What are the elderly advised to do?3. What is the speaker doing?Keys:1. A year ago.2. Drink plenty of water./Drink water all the time.3. Hosting a radio program.13Well, I’d love to share with you my personal opinions on city life and life in small towns. I grew up in a small town until I was 18 and then moved to a big city, so I have experienced the good and bad sides of both. I never thought that I would like living in a big city, but I was wrong. After ten years of living in one, I can’t ima gine ever living in a small town again. Surely small towns and big cities both have some problems in terms of transport. In a small town, you have to own a car to make life comfortable. You can’t get around without one because there isn’t any kind of publi c transport. Big cities generally have heavy traffic and expensive parking, but there you have a choice of taking public transport, which is cheaper than driving. So, if you don’t have a car, you’d better live in the city. I also love the exciting life in big cities. I can always enjoy a lot of films, concerts, and other wonderful shows. However, these things are not common in small towns. The final thing I like about large cities is that you can meet different kinds of people. However, you seldom find such a variety of people in a smaller town. I think that living in an area where everyone was just like me would quickly become dull. Of course, safety should be considered, and that’s one area where small towns are better than big cities. Still, I would rathe r be a bit more careful and live in a large city than to feel safe but dull.1. What is the speaker’s opinion on public transport?2. What is good about living in a small town?3. What kind of life does the speaker seem to like most?Keys:1. It’s cheap.2. It’s safer.3. Colourful life.。

Passage 1Sports have always played an important role in my life. I grow up, and still live, in a small town, where activities are limited. School sports were my only form of athletics for quite a long time. And as much as I love basketball, it can't be played all year round.What to do, what to do? Thankfully, my mom showed me how to have fun with one of her favorite childhood pastimes: roller skating. When I was eight years old, she would take me to a small roller skating rink about 45 minutes away from my house. There, we would join dozens of other children and parents, and spend a good three hoursskating around the rink. The echoes of my wheels against the smooth wooden floor, the cheers from the crowd, and the smell of popcorn are all things that I will never forget. My mom was my partner in crime back then. Together we would skate around the rink, trying to race past the other skaters as fast as we could.

They believe that their family members, especially their parents, don't know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice. It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in children's growing up, because friends can discuss something. These things are difficult to say to their family members.However, parents often try to choose friends for their children. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of “choice〞is an interesting one. Have you ever thought of the following questions?Who chooses your friends?Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you?Have you got a good friend your parents don't like?6.Who did know them better than their parents in many teenagers’mind?——————————————————————————————7.Who is the most important people in their lives to many teenagers?————————————————————————————————8.Is the communication during friends very important in childen’s growing up?

Her hands were shaking when she came home one day to find an envelope bearing the return address of the exchange program. She had been accepted as an exchange student to Brazil. Holly was excited and a little nervous to know that she was going to spend a whole year in another country. Holly didn't speak Portuguese. She didn't even know anyone who had ever been to Brazil.Fortunately, she had two months to get ready.Gabriel looked out of the airplane window and couldn't believe he was on his way to the United States from his native Argentina. Gabriel was an only child, but he was going to live with an American family that had six children. Gabriel would be living on a farm where sheep and cattle were raised and everyone knew how to ride a horse. He had already studied English for several years.Every year, thousands of students all over the world take part in student exchange programs such as AFS Intercultural Programs, Rotary Youth Exchange and Youth for Understanding. With the aim of promoting(促进)understanding among people all over the world, these non-profit programs offer students a chance to study and live in another country for a certain period of time.Students who have studied abroad report that being an exchange student is an extremely helpful experience. Living in another country,staying with a family and attending school means a good chance to 1ealxl about the country and the culture in ways that can never be experienced as a tourist. Learning another language is an extra benefit. Many former exchange students never lose their love of traveling. They go on to look for chances to travel throughout their lives.11.Why was Holly nervous about being an exchange student?————————————————————————————————————12.How are Holly's and Gabriel'S experiences similar?————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————13.What means the underlined word“benefit〞in the last paragraph in Chinese? ——————————————————————————————————14.How long had Holly to get ready? ——————————————————————————————————15.Who was Gabriel going to live with?——DThe Internet has opened up a whole new on-line world for us to meet, chat and go where we've never been before. But just as inface-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when online.The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes. For anything you are about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person's face ?〞If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you'd feel comfortable saying the words to the person's face.If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try not to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.If you do decide to tell someone in the chat room about a mistake, point it out politely. At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.It is not polite ________________ such as their age, sex, and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don't ask such questions.16. What's the best title of the passage?

But few will know-or even think to ask-who it was that invented them. Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging (吃⼒地携带) groceries around in baskets they had to carry. One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business. On June 4,1937,Coldman's first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn't wait to see them using his invention. But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the cart a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try. After a while, Coldman decided to ask customers why they weren't using his carts." Don't you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?"one shopper replied. But Coldman wasn't beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony (假冒的)customers. As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come-those Who came bought more. With larger, easier-to- handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before. Today's shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman's original model. Perhaps that's one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937-before the coming of the shopping cart. 1. The underlined words"chrome-plated contraptions" in Paragraph 1 refer to ____, ( no more than 3 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________ 2.

He became a millionaire when he was only 24. His father was wealthy, but he did not help his son. Getty made his millions alone. He made his money from oil.

He even put pay telephones in the guest’s bedrooms in his house so he could save money on phone bills. [4] In 1973, kidnappers took his 16-year-old grandson, and demanded a large amount of money for his safe return. Getty’s son asked his father for money to save his child. But Getty refused.

[5] Getty started a museum at his home Malibu, California. He bought many important and beautiful pieces of art for the museum. When Getty died in 1976, the value of the collection in the museum was $1 billion. He left all his money to the museum. After his death, the museum grew in size.

They believe that their family members, especially their parents, don't know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice. It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in children's growing up, because friends can discuss something. These things are difficult to say to their family members.However, parents often try to choose friends for their children. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of “choice”is an interesting one. Have you ever thought of the following questions?Who chooses your friends?Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you?Have you got a good friend your parents don't like?6.Who did know them better than their parents in many teenagers’mind?——————————————————————————————7.Who is the most important people in their lives to many teenagers?————————————————————————————————8.Is the communication during friends very important in childen’s growing up?

Holly was excited and a little nervous to know that she was going to spend a whole year in another country. Holly didn't speak Portuguese.She didn't even know anyone who had ever been to Brazil.Fortunately, she had two months to get ready.Gabriel looked out of the airplane window and couldn't believe he was on his way to the United States from his native Argentina. Gabriel was an only child, but he was going to live with an American family that had six children. Gabriel would be living on a farm where sheep and cattle were raised and everyone knew how to ride a horse. He had already studied English for several years.Every year, thousands of students all over the world take part in student exchange programs such as AFS Intercultural Programs, Rotary Youth Exchange and Youth for Understanding.

But just as in face-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when online.The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes. For anything you are about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person's face ?”If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you'd feel comfortable saying the words to the person's face.If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try not to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.If you do decide to tell someone in the chat room about a mistake, point it out politely. At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.It is not polite ________________ such as their age, sex, and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don't ask such questions.16. What's the best title of the passage?
