Children and young people tend to have certain role models – people they want to be like when they grow 1 .

I moved to the small, busy town of Edison in New Jersey six years ago. It was during the second term of my fifth grade. My parents got new jobs and higher income, so they decided it was time to move from Woodbridge to a better, more educational town.
In the US, it is unnecessary to take a test to get into a “good” middle or high school. You just attend the school close to where you live. So, many parents will think about the quality of the local school when they decide to buy a new house. My parents did the same. We finally chose Edison mainly because of the high quality of its school.
In New Jersey, an area with a good school usually means a concentration of Asian people. There are about 300 students in our school. 55% are Asians and just under half of that are Chinese. There are so many Chinese people nearby that we even have our own Chinese school.
Edison is an old town, just like thousands of others in the United States. However, I have treated it as my hometown. That’s where I spend much of my youth, and the memories there can’t be moved anywhere else.
小题1:Why did the writer’s parents move to Edison?| A．Because they were born there. | B．Because it was a better educational town. | | C．Because the writer began his fifth grade. | D．Because the writer didn’t need to take a test. |
小题2:How many students are from Asia in the writer’s school?| A．About 80. | B．About 160. | C．About 220. | D．About 300. |
小题3:What does the underlined expression “a concentration of” mean in Paragraph 3?| A．None of. | B．The whole of | C．A large number of | D．A small number of |
小题4:Why can’t the writer forget Edison?| A．Because he regards it as his hometown. | B．Because his parents got new jobs there. | | C．Because there are many Asians there. | D．Because it is in the state of New Jersey. |

_____小题1:Susan is a big eater. She usually has a lot at every meal. So she wonders whether she could only eat less for the first meal of a day to lose weight.
_____小题2:Tina is a fat girl who doesn’t like exercise much. She just wants to lose weight by eating less but not doing exercise.
_____小题3:Maggie is a busy office lady. She usually has to work overtime every day. So she could only have her dinner late at night. She wants to be slimmer so that she could be much more attractive.
_____小题4: Judy is a fashionable designer. She hopes to have a slim shape as models. She usually doesn’t have any regular meal, but has some snacks when she is hungry.| A．If you eat less for breakfast, you have a lower chance of losing weight. Breakfast is important. It gives the body sufficient energy to sustain itself through the morning, and it also stimulates metabolic (新陈代谢) activity in the body. Metabolism is what consumes fat and what makes us slimmer. So, don’t forget to eat something for the breakfast. | | B．If you ate your last meal right before going to bed, the calories accumulated from this meal could be twice the amount accumulated from a same meal if you ate it another time during the day. | | C．Many people stop doing exercise when they eat less. When you do this, your body will burn less fat. So even if people take in less calories, they get rid of less too. The balance is then unchanged. | | D．People gain fat not from the food they eat, but from the number of calories in the food. For example, a bunch of vegetables has just one tenth the calories contained in a small bit of chocolate cake. So make sure you have adequate regular meals, but firmly say no to various snacks, milk tea or even instant noodles. |

Twenty-first century humanity has mapped oceans and mountains, visited the moon, and surveyed the planets. But for all the progress, people __1 don’t know one another very well.
That brings about Theodore Zeldin’s “ 2 of conversation” — events 3 individuals sit in pairs with persons they don’ t know for three hours of 4 talk designed to help people know better about each other.
Mr. Zeldin heads Oxford Muse, a l0-year-old foundation based on the _5 that what people need is not more information, but more inspiration and encouragement.
The “feast” in London looks 6 at politics or events, but at how people have felt about work, relations among the sexes, hopes 7 fears, enemies and authority, the shape of their lives. The “menu of _8 ” includes topics like “How have your concerns changed 9 the years?” Or, “What have you done against the past?”
As participants gathered, Zeldin opened with a speech: that despite _10 communications like QQ and MSN in a globalized age, issues of human heart 11 . Many people are lonely, or occupied in dealing with their daily businesses that discourage knowing the _ 12 _ of one another. “We are trapped in _ 13 _ conversations and the whole point now is to think, which is sometimes painful,”he says. “But 14 _ interaction is what separates us from other species, __15 maybe dogs that do have interactions with humans.”
The main rules of the “feast”: Don’t 16 _ with someone you know or ask questions you would not answer. The only awkward moment came when the multi-racial crowd of people of different ages, in sun hats, ties and __17_, looked to see 18 they would talk with for hours. 19 15 minutes later, everyone was seated and talking, continuing full force until organizers interrupted them 180 minutes later.
Some said they felt free to talk on 20 topics. Thirty-something Peter, from East London, said that “it might take weeks or months to get to the level of interaction we suddenly opened up.”

【1】 It"s difficult enough to have privacy(隐私) in a house, so privacy in a small dorm room is next to impossible. However, it can be done if both roommates are willing to cooperate.
【2】 Step1 Tie a scarf to the outside doorknob as a symbol of Do Not Disturb, but be careful not to do this too consistently. Warn your roommate beforehand about possible days and times when this scarf will be on the door so your roommate will have time to make plans ahead of time instead of it being a surprise, especially if you plan to have an overnight guest. Be considerate if your roommate needs to get into the room regardless of the scarf on the door to get something out of the dorm because it is his dorm room too.
【3】 Step2 If one roommate is a light sleeper and the other is a heavy sleeper, the heavy sleeper could consider an alternate way to wake himself up besides an alarm. Heavy sleepers tend to ignore alarms, but sometimes vibrating (震动的) cell phones feel like someone is shaking them. It is also a quieter way to not disturb the light sleeping roommate using a vibrating cell phone.
【4】 Step3 Take cell phone calls outside of the room. Your roommate may not want to hear your conversation or you may want some privacy, but your roommate should not have to leave every time you have a phone call. The roommate who is not on the phone has no way of knowing how often you will have phone calls and should not be put out because you do.
【5】 Step4 Ask if it" s okay to have a guest in the room. Although your roommate is not your parent, and you may feel like this is your room too, remember that ____ . He may not want company when you do. If one roommate is more sociable than the other and guests become a repeated argument, consider asking the resident director if you can swap( 交换) roommate with someone else.
小题1:What does the passage mainly talk about? (no more than 10 words)
______________________________________________________________________
小题2:Complete the following statement with proper words, (no more than 6 words)
To avoid disturbing the light sleeper, _______________________ is also a good way.
小题3:Please fill in the blank in the passage with proper words, (no more than 6 words)
_________________________________________________________________
小题4:What does Step 3 suggest us? (no more than 10 words)
_______________________________________________
小题5:What does the underlined word "it" (line 2, paragraph 1) probably refer to? (no more than 3 words)
