Steve was ten years old. He was a very good pupil, nor did he like doing his homework. When he did his homework, he always made a lot of mistake.

   One day, his maths teacher went over Steve’s homework, see all his answers were right. He was very surprised instead being pleased. He asked Steve to explain what has happened, “ You have got all your answers correctly this time, Steve. Did anyone help you?”

   As the matter of fact, Steve’s mother often helped him with her lessons. And that evening, she was not able to because she wasn’t in. So Steve answered, “ No, sir, my mother was busy last night, so I had to do the homework all for myself.”

A greeting is a friendly expression or gesture used when meeting or welcoming someone. Greetings usually happen before a conversation and sometimes accompanied by some greeting behaviors such as a small kiss or a hug and handshake. Though the time to greet someone is short,      

  51    . Just as the Chinese saying goes “A kind word could warm one for three winters, a bad attitude would make one cold even in hot summer.”

The following are some greetings in different countries.

1. America: Firm handshakes should last 3-5 seconds.   52    . When greeting multiple people, make eye contact with the person whose hand you are taking, and then go on to the next. They are not used to standing too closely.

2. United Kingdom: A hand shake is the most common form of greeting for both men and women. When people are already familiar, verbal greetings are used. Personal space is important and people can feel uncomfortable if someone stands too close to them.     53   .

3. Australia: A handshake is the preferred greeting. When speaking to an Australian, keep an arm’s length distance from the person.    54    , and eye contact should be maintained as well.

4. Canada: A handshake is traditional. Men usually wait for women to offer theirs. Direct, but not too intense eye contact is acceptable, especially to convey sincerity. The standard distance between two people should be two feet.     55   .

A. Touching is generally avoided

B. people still greet each other with a “hello”.

C. French Canadians, however, may stand slightly closer.

D. its influence is long and profound.

E. When people already know each other well, they needn’t greet.

F. Good eye contact shows interest, sincerity and confidence.

G. Maintaining personal space is important in this culture

Eleven-year-olds are to learn Shakespeare using the approaches taken by actors, and English teachers will be encouraged to let pupils walk around the classroom rather than read the plays while pupils are sitting at their desks.

Within the English curriculum(課程) you tend to look at a play text as a piece of literature rather than performance. But you can’t possibly understand Shakespeare’s language if you’re just reading it in your head. Shakespeare is difficult; it’s not a 21st century text. You have to use different ways to understand it.

The new teaching way focuses on how actors come to understand Shakespeare’s language. In fact actors have the same nervousness about Shakespeare’s language as young people in schools do. But in six to eight weeks they get to a place of complete confidence about the play. Pupils can do as well.

Exercises devised are to let children aged 11 to 14 imitate the methods of professional actors. Written and oral assessments developed alongside the lessons will show how well students have understood the texts.

In one task pupils will work on creating four key physical figures of king, warrior(勇士), lover and joker, finding which lines of their chosen character go with those features first and then acting them out. Through this they can examine how a character such as Macbeth can switch dramatically within one scene from soldier to kingly figure to trick planner. It’s really creative but you’re still getting a really wonderful model of understanding. It’s miles away from a “chalk and talk” method.

Educators think Shakespeare should be a central part of every young person’s education. Developing a love of Shakespeare at a young age often leads to a lifelong passion for literature and helps to improve a child’s reading and writing.

47. How will young people learn Shakespeare?

A. Reading them aloud.                                  B. Reciting them.

C. Cooperating with actors.                           D. Acting them out.

48. You cannot understand Shakespeare’s words easily because________.

A. they are pieces of literature                        B. their expressions are different

C. ordinary people cannot understand them      D. they are performances

49. The underlined sentence “It’s miles away from a ‘chalk and talk’ method.” In Paragraph 5 means_____.

A. Chalk and talk are far away from each other

B. It is much better than the traditional way

C. Chalk and talk are quite different

D. By chalk and talk we can understand Shakespeare

50. What’s the best title of the reading passage?

A. The New Approach to Shakespeare                         

B. The Introduction to Shakespeare

C. How to act Shakespeare’s plays                         

D. Shakespeare’s works in the English curriculum

Counterfeit ( 假的) medicines are a widespread problem in developing countries. Like other counterfeits, they look like real products. But counterfeit drugs may contain too little or none of the active ingredients of the real thing.

People do not get the medicine they need. And in some cases counterfeits cause death. Twenty children in Bangladesh died last year after being given acetaminophen(醋氨酚). The medications contained ingredients that looked, smelled and tasted like the real thing. The medicine was produced by a local drug company that used a dangerous substitute to save money.

The problem of counterfeit medicines is especially serious in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The W.H.O. estimates that up to thirty percent of medicines on sale in many of those countries are counterfeit. The problem is less widespread among industrialized countries. The W.H.O. says counterfeits make up less than one percent of the illegal drug market in countries like the United States, Canada, Japan, and New Zealand.

But the agency also says as much as fifty percent of the medicine sold on the Internet is counterfeit.

Much is being done to fight counterfeit drugs. Several companies are developing ways to make counterfeits easier to identify. And there are existing methods, like a machine that can quickly identify chemicals in pills to confirm if the pills are real. Other ideas include things like special tracking codes for drug packages. People could send a text message with the code and get a message back, which proves that what they bought is listed in a database. Some drug makers and other companies put three-dimensional images called holograms (全息圖)on their products as a security device.

Being that I worked in a grocery store for 7 years, I know quite a bit about impulsive purchases. In fact, I helped (sadly to say) push certain products by placing them in a certain fashion. Through said experience, I tend to know some of the best ways to counter the impulsive nature of buying things that are unnecessary.

The following is a 3- point list to counter the need to buy something shoved in your face…

Don't bring the kids.

You wouldn't believe (or maybe you parents would) how much more junk parents buy for their kids that is completely impulsive. Working as a checker at a grocery store, I quickly learned that most of the time kids were with their parents, the parents would buy something else within 10 feet of the check stand.

Bring exact cash.

I like to use my debit card because I am able to track every penny better, but holding and letting go of cash is much tougher for me personally. So, if I am going through a tough time budgeting properly, I will bring the allotted (限定的)amount of cash to the place of business and only allow that to be used.

Ignore salesman.

If you are at a department store and someone asks if you need help, try to ignore their push as much as possible. Sure, if you know nothing about laptops, get their advice, but even then I suggest doing your research pre-shop. Salesman could care less what you want. It's all about what their quota or commission is. Ignore them.

40. Why does the author write the passage?

A. To talk about her own shopping experiences.

B. To give readers some advice about resisting buying unnecessary things.

C. To complain about some bad experiences.

D. To tell us she has the habit of buying things that are unnecessary.

41. Why does the author like to use debit card?

A. Because her debit card is convenient.                       

B. Because she has not much cash.

C. Because she can know where every her penny goes. 

D. Because she has many debit cards.

42. Which statement about the passage is WRONG?

A. Parents always bring something else for their children.

B. The author will bring the exact cash to buy things when going through a tough time.

C. Salesmen care much about what you want, so you can follow their advice.

D. The author worked in a grocery store for 7 years.

Charlie Chaplin was one of the greatest and widely loved silent movie stars. From “Easy Street” (1917) to “Modern Times” (1936), he made many of the funniest and most popular films of his time. He was best known for his character, the naive and lovable Little Tramp. The Little Tramp, a well meaning man in a raggedy suit with cane, always found himself wobbling into awkward situations and strangely wobbling away. More than any other figure, it is this kind-hearted character that we associate with the time before the talkies (sound films).

Born in London in 1889, Chaplin first visited America with a theater company in 1907. Appearing as “Billy” in the play “Sherlock Holmes”, the young Chaplin toured the country twice. On his second tour, he met Mack Sennett and was signed to Keystone Studios to act in films. In 1914 Chaplin made his first one-reeler, “Making a Living”. That same year he made thirty-four more short films, including “Caught in a Cabaret”, “Caught in the Rain”, “The Face on the Bar-Room Floor”, and “His Trysting Place”. These early silent shorts allowed very little time for anything but physical comedy, and Chaplin was a master at it.

Though Chaplin is of the silent movie era, we see his achievements carried through in the films of today. With the appearance of the feature-length talkies, the need for more subtle acting became apparent. To maintain the audience’s attention throughout a six-reel film, an actor needed to move beyond constant comedy. Chaplin had demanded this depth long before anyone else. His strictness and concern for the processes of acting and directing made his films great and led the way to a new, more sophisticated, cinema.

36. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?

A. “The little Tramp” was the only character that Charlie Chaplin acted.

B. Charlie Chaplin signed to Keystone Studios in 1906.

C. Charlie Chaplin made five short films in 1914.

D. Charlie Chaplin has a great effect on today’s sound film.

37. What is the right order according to the passage?

a. Charlie Chaplin made the film “ Easy Street”.

b. The film “Caught in the rain” was made.

c. Charlie Chaplin first visited America.

d. Charlie Chaplin met Mack Sennett.

e. “Modern Times” was made.

A. d, c, a, e, b                 B d, c, b, a, e                   C. c, d, b, a, e           D. c, d, a, b, e

38. Which word can best describe Charlie Chaplin according to the passage?

A. lovable                        B. kind-hearted             C. strict                       D. awkward

39. What do you think is the passage about?

A. Life of Chaplin                                  B. Works of Chaplin  

C. Characters of Chaplin                                   D. An introduction of Chaplin

One year ago, I traveled 15,000 kilometers from Australia to the US. I am from a beachside town in the 　16 of Sydney, and thought there would be almost no 　17 differences between my home country and my 18 . I was surprised at how wrong I was, and at 19 different the two countries could be.

The United States is 　20 in almost every aspect. The buildings are gigantic (巨大的) and so are the people who 　21 and work in them. At mealtimes, the portions (份額) often 　22 to me to be big enough for three or four people. I once 　23 a baked potato which turned out to be bigger than my head! This was a big 　24 for me.

The longer I spent in the US, the more I started to 　25 smaller differences like the culture of 　26 in restaurants. In Australia we don’t tend to give a tip 　27 the service has been really excellent. In the US you tip for 　28 everything, even at the hairdresser. Waiters and shop assistants 　29 to be given 15 percent of the bill, although in places 　30 New York or Washington DC, a tip can be as much as 20 percent.

31 , I also became more wary (謹(jǐn)慎的) of believing the stereotypes (成見(jiàn)) I had heard at home as I traveled. Not all Americans are ignorant of geography, for example.

Despite this, certain stereotypes about places did seem to 　32 true for me. There is an immense (強(qiáng)烈的) sense of speed in New York. Everyone 　33 to and fro, and very seldom takes time to 　34 the moment. This is very different from the Australian lifestyle. Australians are laid back. Even in a major city like Sydney, we “Aussies” take time to “stop and smell the roses”---very different from our American counterparts.

Navigating (駕馭) the culture divide between Australia and the US was challenging at times. But I took up that 　35 and learned a lot from it. It was an adventure.
