Perhaps the only test score that I remembered is the 55 when I was in high school.
The test was the final for a course. I remembered waiting anxiously as my teacher Mr. Right handed out our papers one by one. It was a rather 1 test. I heard my classmates groaning(叹息)， and I could tell by the groans that the scores weren’t looking 2 .
Mr. Right put my paper on my desk. There in big red numbers， circled to draw attention， was my score， 55!
I lowered my head， and 3 the score up quickly. A 55 is not something that you wanted your classmates to see.
“The scores were not very good， none of you 4 ，” Mr. Right said. “The highest score in the class was a 55.”
A 55. That’s me!
5 my sad look didn’t look so bad. I had the highest score. I felt a lot better.
I walked home alone that day with the low but high score. My father knew that I had a big 6 that day and asked me as soon as I got home， “ 7 did you do in your test?”
“I made a 55，” I said.
A frown(皱眉) now stood on my father’s face. I knew I had to 8 at once. “But Dad， I had the highest score in the class， ” I 9 said. I thought that explanation would make a difference.
“You 10 !” my father replied.
“But it’s the highest!” I 11
“I don’t 12 what scores others had， but you failed. What 13 is what you do!” my father firmly said.
For years， my father was 14 that way. It didn’t matter what others did， it only mattered what I did and that I did it excellently.
We often don’t understand the 15 of good parents until we ourselves stand in the parents’ shoes. My father’s words have carried me throughout life.

China’s new hot word,tuhao, may be in next year’s Oxford English Dictionary.
In Chinese,tumeans rude andhaomeans rich. In recent years, people use this term to describe those who spend money in an unreasonable way. The word became more popular with the newest Apple’s gold-colored iPhone, which is loved by China’s rich people. The color became known as “tuhaogold”. The word is now often used to refer to people who have the cash but lack taste.
There are two other Chinese hot words:damaandNoZuoNoDie, which may also be taken in the dictionary.Dama, meaning middle-aged women, was first used in the Western media by theWall Street Journal. Thousands of Chinese women were buying a large amount of gold when the gold price had gone down. Another phraseNoZuoNoDiemeans if you don’t do stupid things, they won’t come back to bite you, is also very popular. Other words, such asMaotai,Chinglishand "dimsum" have also been included in the dictionary.
“Words likedamaandtuhaoare so vivid. My friends and I use them a lot—it’s so much fun,” said an American student who studies in Beijing.
BBC World News recently made a special program called “Tuhao,let’s be friends!” “The frequent use of Chinglish by foreign media suggests that foreign people are looking more to the lifestyle and popular culture of China,” says Zhang Yiwu, professor of Peking University.
What does this trend suggest about the Chinese language's influence?
Xing Hongbing, professor from Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU) said “These show that Chinglish is now being accepted by the rest of the world and they play important roles in daily life of Chinese. Behind these Chinglish words and phrases is the Chinese culture. They are reflections of the changes and trends in the Chinese society and they help people from other countries to understand what's happening in China.”

A．The rich who like iPhone made of gold

14、Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost mention recycling. Recycling in the homes is very important. However, having to recycle often means we already have more products than we need. We are just dealing with the results of thatover-consumptionin the greenest way, but it would be much better if we did not bring so many goods home.
The total amount of packaging（外包装） has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It is 1/3 of a home’s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets, food products are packaged twice with plastic and paper. Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of land because of this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Besides, the plastic from the package puts some creatures in danger, especially birds and fish.
Recycling helps, but the recycling itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such waste in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, few of them have the idea that this cannot continue. For example, supermarkets should encourage customers to reuse their plastic bags.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have been used to the idea that packaging means excellence while anything unpackaged is of poor condition. This is especially true of food. But this idea has spread to other products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how many unnecessary goods are collected. We need to face the waste of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.

A．Using too much packaging.
B．Recycling too many wastes.

A．It may waste land.
B．It may pollute the food.

D．It may make the green house effect worse.
3．（小题3）According to the passage, which of the following is true about recycling?
A．It leads to a waste of land.
B．It means burning packaging for energy.
C．It is the only solution to the greenhouse effect.
D．It helps reduce the harm caused by too much packaging.
4．（小题4）Why do people prefer packaged products?
A．Supermarkets encourage them.
B．People care more about packaging.
C．It is necessary for all the products to have package.
D．People think unpackaged products are of poor condition.
5．（小题5）What does the writer tell us in the last paragraph?

16、Hands play an important part in our daily life. But do you know which of your two hands you use more? Very few people use both hands equally well. Most of us are right-handed. Only about five people out of a hundred are left-handed. New-born babies can take hold of things with either of their hands, but in about two years they usually use their right hands. Scientists don't know why this happens.
Monkeys are our close relatives in the animal world. Scientists have found that monkeys like to use one of their hands more than the other, but it can be either hand. There are as many right-handed monkeys as left-handed ones. Next time you visit a zoo, watch the monkeys carefully, you will see that some of them will use their right hands and others will use their left hands. But most of the people use their right hands better and this makes life difficult for those left-handed people. We live in a right-handed world.
