Although I had stayed in England for over a year, it was difficult for me to understand
the British mind. Traveling to then office every day by train, I watched people hiding their faces behind newspapers. They rarely talked to each other, occasionally lifting their eyebrows to look at their fellow passengers. But when I started a conversation by using the excuse of the weather, I found many had a natural gift for gossip. They would go on telling me all about themselves and their families. Sometimes I was even given their telephone numbers and asked to look them up. At first I took their invitations as they appeared. But when I rang and hear the surprised tone “Who?” I felt embarrassed and pretended I had got the wrong number.

I had to learn to say “please”, “sorry”, “thank you”, whether I felt it or not. Once, while buying a ticket to Waterloo, I forgot to say “please”. The man at the counter was offended and would not give me the ticket until I had said “please”. When he handed me the ticket, he said “sorry”, and hurried inside to take the only empty seat.

On the way to the office one morning, a man collapsed in my compartment. At Waterloo, everybody left, but I stayed with him until the ambulance arrived and was an hour late getting to the office. I was told that it was not my job to look after strangers.

I found that many did not even look after their own parents who were old and helpless. In India, it is the duty of the children to look after their parent and old relatives. While serving a meal, my mother always gave food to the elderly relatives and children first and ate whatever was left over. The elderly never felt isolated. They lived with their families and contributed to the happiness of the house.

31. How long had the writer stayed in England?

A. Just a year

B. More than a year

C. Almost two years

D. About ten months

32. What does the word “rarely” mean in the first paragraph?

A. seldom

B. always

C. often

D. independent while the wife is dependent

33. What did the writer mean when he said “many had a natural gift for gossip”?

A. Many British people were born speakers

B. Many British people were talkative.

C. Many British people were hot-tempered.

D. Many British people were talented

34. What did the writer mean to say by giving us the examples in the second paragraph?

A. English people are very polite because they always say “thank you” or “sorry”.

B. English people enjoy teaching others lessons of politeness.

C. He had to learn to say “please”, “sorry”, “thank you”.

D. English people say polite words without sincere politeness.

35. What does the last paragraph suggest?

A. Many old people in England were lonely because they were not taken good care of.

B. Old people in India never felt isolated.

C. The writer’s mother always ate whatever was left over.

D. Old people in most countries are respected.

It is customary for adults to forget how hard and dull and long school is. The learning

by memory of all the basic things one must know is a most incredible and unending effort. School is not easy and it is not for the most part very much fun, but then, if you are very lucky, you may find a real teacher. Three teachers in a lifetime are the very best of my luck. My first was a science and math teacher in high school, my second, a professor of creative writing at Stanford, and my third was my friend and partner, ED Rickets.

I have to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that three are as few as there are any other great artists. It might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.

My three teachers had these things in common: They all loved what they were doing; they did not tell, but stimulated a burning desire to know. Under their influence, the horizons sprang wide and fear went away and the unknown became knowable.

I shall speak only of my first teacher because in addition to the other things, she brought discovery. She aroused us to shouting, book-waving discussions. She had the noisiest class in school and she did not even seem to know it. We could never stick to the subject. Our speculation (思绪) ranged the world. She breathed curiosity into us so that we brought in facts or truths shielded in our hands like captured fireflies (萤火虫).

She was fired, and perhaps rightly so, for failing to teach fundamentals. Such things must be learned. But she left a passion in us for the pure knowable world and she inflamed me with a curiosity which has never left. I have had many teachers who told me soon-forgotten facts but only three who created in me a new attitude a new hunger. What deathless power lies in the hands of such a person?

21. In the writer’s opinion, school life is usually .

A. exciting B. interesting C. tiresome D. challenging

22. We can infer from Paragraph 2 that .

A. it is easy to find great artists as well as great teachers.

B. there are few great teachers but many great artists.

C. the greatest artists are not easy to find; nor are the greatest teachers.

D. being a great teacher is a great art to learn because teachers spread knowledge.

23. In the writer’s opinion, a good teacher should .

A. teach students the fundamental things

B. stick to one subject and be strict with students

C. teach students the knowledge ranging the world

D. arouse students’ curiosity and desire for the world

24. The writer’s first teacher was dismissed mainly because .

A. her class was the noisiest in school

B. she did not teach basic knowledge in class

C. she let students shout and wave books in class

D. she did not know how to teach basic knowledge effectively

25. What is the best title of this article?

A. The Teachers in My Life B. How to Become a Teacher

C. What to Teach at School D. What Makes a Good Teacher

Remembering My GrandparentsWhen memory began for me, my grandfather was past sixty -- a
Remembering My Grandparents

When memory began for me, my grandfather was past sixty -- a great tall man with thick hair becoming gray. He had black eyes and a straight nose which ended in a slightly flattened tip. Once he explained seriously to me that he got that flattened tip as a small child when he fell down and stepped On his nose.The little marks of laughter at the corners of his eyes were the product of a kindly and humorous nature. The years of work which had bent his shoulders had never dulled his humor nor his love of a joke. Everywhere he went, "Gramp" made friends easily. At the end of half an hour you felt you had known him all your life. I soon learned that he hated to give orders, but that when he had to, he tried to make his orders sound like suggestions.One July morning, as he was leaving to go to the cornfield, he said, "Edwin, you can pick up the potatoes in the field today if you want to do that." Then he drove away with his horses.The day passed, and I did not have any desire to pick up potatoes. Evening came and the potatoes were still in the field. Gramp, dusty and tired, led the horses to get their drink."How many bags of potatoes were there?" Gramp inquired."I don't know."

"How many potatoes did you pick up?"

"I didn't pick any."

"Not any! Why not?"

"You said I could pick them up if I wanted to. You didn't say I had to."

In the next few minutes I learned a lesson I would not forget, when Gramp said I could if I wanted to, he meant that I should want to.My grandmother ("Gram") worked hard all day, washing clothes, cleaning the house, making butter, and even working in the field when help was scarce. In the evening, though, she was not too tired to read books from the community library. For more than forty years Gram read aloud to Gramp almost every evening. In this way she and Gramp learned about all the great battles of history and became familiar with the works of great authors and the lives of famous men.Gram hated cruelty and injustice. The injustices of history, even those of a thousand years before, angered her as much as the injustices of her own day.She also had a deep love of beauty. When she was almost seventy-five, and had gone to live with one of her daughters, she spent a delightful morning washing dishes because, as she said, the beautiful patterns on the dishes gave her pleasure. The birds, the flowers, the clouds -- all that was beautiful around her -- pleased her. She was like the father of the French painter, Millet, who used to gather grass and show it to his son, saying, "See how beautiful this is!"

In a pioneer society it is the harder qualities of mind and character that are of value. The softer virtues are considered unnecessary. Men and women struggling daily to earn a living are unable, even for a moment, to forget the business of preserving their lives. Only unusual people, like my grandparents, manage to keep the softer qualities in a world of daily struggle.Such were the two people with whom I spent the months from June to September in the wonderful days of summer and youth.

A、was flattened because it had been stepped on

4.The writer describes his Grandma as ____

We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistake
s are about people."Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?" "When I got that great job, did Jerry really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad.But when we look back, it's too late.

Why do we go wrong about our friends--or our enemies?

If he says, "You're a lucky guy" or "You're a lucky gal", that's being friendly.But "lucky dog"? There's a bit of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn't see it himself.But bringing in the "dog" bit puts you down a little.What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.

How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture (体态)? The look in his eyes? Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.

Learning how to write is like taking a course in public speaking. I' d ask whether a
nyone in class had ever taken such a course. Invariably a few hands would go up.

"What did you learn in that course?" I'd ask.

"Well, the main thing was learning how to face an audience ... not to be inhibited(拘谨 )... not to be nervous Exactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowadays, you don' t hear much about grammar and vocabulary. Instead, you' re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed, how to speak without a prepared script, how to read out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your long-standing nervous inhibitions.

The same is true of writing. The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who' ll read what you wrote. You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and read out to the person at the other end of the line.

Of course, in public speaking, with the audience right in front of you, the problem is easier. You can look at them and talk to them directly. In writing, you' re alone. It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her. But that effort is necessary -- or at least it' s necessary until you've reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously "talk on paper.

1.In the opinion of the author, public speaking is much easier than writing because().

A、public speaking requires less effort than writing

B、it' s unnecessary for you to write a lot for speech and you can say anything as you like

C、you face the audience directly in public speaking; while writing is otherwise

D、in public speaking, the audience have to listen to you whether they like it or not

2.The topic of the passage is().

A、how to be a good writer

B、how to be a good speaker

C、how to express yourself with your words

D、how to get rid of nervousness in public speaking

3.The public speech course mainly teaches students().

A、how to make an attractive speech using perfect grammar and vocabulary

B、how to express themselves exactly and vividly

C、how to collect data needed and organize it

D、how to get over their nervousness when making a speech

4.The similarity between making a public speech and writing is that().

A、you have to do a lot of preparation work beforehand

B、you should get over your nervous inhibitions

C、you should know grammar and vocabulary well to accomplish them

D、both of them have audience
