Smiles
A little girl who is neither pretty nor clever can hardly draw a teacher’s attention, especially when she is shy and self-abased.
I was such a girl when I was at the age of eight. At that time I was a primary school student. I loved reading books, hearing stories and playing games. Also I enjoyed listening to music as well as singing songs. I didn’t find myself very interested in music until Miss Lois, my music teacher, came into my life.
She was a young lady who looked just over 20 years old, she was pretty and gentle, with great patience. She has made such a great influence on me that I cannot and will never forget her. In our music classes, Miss Lois sometimes played a short piece of music and asked us to repeat. It was a bit difficult for an eight-year-old child to do so. In one of those classes, some clever girls were chosen, and then followed by some pretty ones. A few of them could do a good job and gained Miss Lois’s praise. Then, to everyone’s surprise, I became the one who was chosen to do it. Surprised and anxious, I didn’t know whether I would be a laughing stock. Miss Lois looked at me with a beautiful smile. At once I calmed myself and took great courage. At last I did very well and was said to be the best.
Maybe Miss Lois can’t remember my name now, for she treats every pupil kindly. But she really has played a very important role in my life. It’s she who turned a self-abased girl into a confident one.

1、How has the teacher influenced the writer?
A. The teacher turns her into a pretty girl.
B. The teacher makes her like listening to music.
C. The teacher makes her become more confident.
D. The teacher makes her realize she is actually a pretty girl.
.2、Which of the following is NOT the description of the girl originally?
A. Shy B. Self -abased.
C. Pretty. D. Silent.

3. What kind of person is the teacher?
A. Pretty. B. Young.
C. Patient. D. All of the above.

4、 What’s the tone of the writer in the article?
A. Indifferent. B. Joyful.
C. Appreciative. D. Sarcastic.

5、The writer did very well when she was asked to repeat the piece of music because _______.
A. the teacher smiled at her which gave her great courage
B. she was actually good at it but she didn’t realize that before
C. she was lucky to remember the piece of music by chance
D. both A and B

Concept of Time in America and Brazil
In the United States, it is important to be on time, or punctual, for an appointment, a class, a meeting, etc. However, this is not true in Brazil. An American professor discovered this difference while teaching a class in a Brazilian University. The two-hour class was scheduled to begin at 10 am and end at 12 am. On the first day, when the professor arrived on time, no one was in the classroom. Many student came after 10 am and several arrived after 10:30 am. Two students came after 11 am. Although all the students greeted the professor as they arrived, few apologized for their lateness. Were these students being rude? He decided to study the student’s behavior.
…………………………………………………答……………………………题……………………………线…………………………………………………
The professor talked to American and Brazilian students about lateness in both an informal and a formal situation: at a lunch with a friend and in a university call, respectively. He gave them an example and asked them how they would react. If they had a lunch appointment with a friend, the average American students defined lateness as 19 minutes after the agreed time. On the other hand, the average, Brazilian students felt the friend was late after 33 minutes.
Classes not only begin at the scheduled time in the United States, but also end at the scheduled time. In the Brazilian Class, only a few students left the class at 12:00; many remained post 12:30 to discuss the class and ask more questions. While arriving late may not be very important in Brazil, neither is staying late.
6、Which is NOT true according to the passage?

Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.
In 1849, after graduation from medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.
Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital, she also set up the first medical school for women.

Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today nearly two-thirds of the world’s populations live within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive (=continue to live). Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many of man’s needs.
The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined (开采).
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish (贝类动物) is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental people.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents (水流) and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.
The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year the problems that prevent us from exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.
16、The major things that the sea offers man are ______.
A. fish and oil B. minerals and oil
C. warm temperature and ocean currents D. the food, energy sources, and minerals

17、The sea serves the needs of man because ______.
A. in provides man with food B. it offers oil to man
C. it supplies man with minerals D. all of the above

18、We can conclude from this passage that ______.
A. the sea resources have largely been used up
B. the sea, in the broad sense, has not yet been developed
C. the problems that prevent us from using the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea have already been solved.
D. by the year , the technology will be good enoug
