The whole morning we just checked our own things. We were looking for items to give away. We thought of blankets, food and clothing. Our aim was not to find things we no longer wanted, but things we use every day and would be useful to others. We made up boxes with the things and added some small toys. Inside the boxes a simple letter was placed, reading: “Please take these items and know that your life is important. Times are difficult but they will pass. We share what we have, believing it will matter. Use the blanket to stay warm. Be safe and know that the human spirit can overcome anything. Don’t hold your head down. Someday please do the same when you can. How you do it and when, your heart will tell you. This kind act was not because the phone rang or for any reason. It was simply because it was the right time to do. We have often seen homeless people at the park where we left the belongings. The city would say that it isn’t a problem but I see the lives walking to and from it. I noticed that my wife had put her favorite green coat into one of the boxes. I asked if she was sure about it and she simply replied that it had a hood (风帽). She liked the coat but knew the hood could shelter (遮挡)someone from the rain. We don’t know where these gifts of compassion(同情)will go. We never go back and see what happens. It’s unimportant. The right things will find the right people and that is all that counts. On the way my wife started to cry. When I asked why, she said because some things felt so right. 小题1:What can we learn from the first paragraph about the couple?A.They had deep feelings of their work | B.They often threw the useless daily items away | C.They liked helping others by sharing their things | D.They often gave away the daily items they didn’t use | 小题2:The couple placed the letter inside the box mainly to_______________.A.help the poor go through the difficulties | B.let the poor know who gave away the things | C.tell the poor how to use the items correctly | D.tell the poor to pass on the spirit to others | 小题3:The couple liked this kind act because _______.A.they thought it was the right thing to do | B.they had a good habit of saving things | C.they often received telephone calls for help | D.they hated being troubled by homeless people | 小题4:What’s the best title for this passage?A.Boxes filled with compassion | B.Good behavior leading to happiness | C.The most important thing in our life | D.Happiness coming from sharing things |

Dear Dad, I was very upset when I received your letter. I knew you 36 not like my results, but I didn’t realize you and Mum were so 37 with me. This has made me 38 very carefully about myself, and now I 39 how silly I have been. My poor 40 have come from my own 41 . Of course, I want to do my best. I want you and Mum to be proud 42 me, but somehow when I get to school I just can’t keep my 43 on the subject and I stop 44 the teacher.

Tian Yan Dear Tian Yan, It’s bad luck that you have lost your favorite teacher, But if she is still in your school , nothing can stop you going to see her. When she isn’t busy, ask her if she minds having a quick chat. You can then tell her she was your favorite teacher------ everyone is happy to know that they are liked! If she has left the school, it will be more difficult to meet her. It will be hard, but remember people always come and go in their lives. We can’t rely on them to be with us all the time. You may be sad to say goodbye to her, but we can remember and learn from her. Think of her best qualities. You could also try looking for similar qualities in your other teachers. Study hard and give your new teacher a chance.In time, you might start to see that he or she has different qualities to learn from.

BRITAIN is a popular tourist place. But tours of the country have advantages and disadvantages . ADVANTAGES Free museums. No charge for good collections of art works Pop music.

People can dine out on the rudeness they have experienced,” says Professor Tony Seaton, of Luton University’s International Tourism Research Center. Poor public transport. Trains and buses are promised to defeat tourists who have the most patience, so the over- crowded London tube is inexplicably(难以理解的) popular. Rain. Still in the number one complaint.

The speaker, a teacher from a community college, addressed a sympathetic(赞同的) audience. Heads nodded in agreement when he said, “High school English teachers are not doing their jobs.” He described the inadequacies of his students, all high school graduates who can use language only at a grade 9 level. I was unable to determine from his answers to my questions how this grade 9 level had been established. My topic is not standards nor its decline(降低). What the speaker was really saying is that he is no longer young; he has been teaching for sixteen years, and is able to think and speak like a mature adult. My point is that the frequent complaint of one generation about the one immediately following it is inevitable. It is also human nature to look for the reasons for our dissatisfaction. Before English became a school subject in the late nineteenth century, it was difficult to find the target of the blame for language deficiencies (缺陷). But since then, English teachers have been under constant attack. The complainers think they have hit upon an original idea. As their own command of the language improves, they notice that young people do not have this same ability. Unaware that their own ability has developed through the years, they assume the new generation of young people must be hopeless in this respect. To the eyes and ears of sensitive adults the language of the young always seems inadequate. Since this concern about the decline and fall of the English language is not perceived(察觉) as a generational phenomenon but rather as something new and peculiar(特有的) to today’s young people, it naturally follows that today’s English teachers cannot be doing their jobs. Otherwise, young people would not commit offenses against the language. 小题1: The speaker the author mentioned in the passage believed that _____. A.the language of the younger generation is usually inferior(差的) to that of the older generation | B.the students had a poor command of English because they didn’t work hard enough | C.he was an excellent language teacher because he had been teaching English for sixteen years | D.English teachers should be held responsible for the students’ poor command of English | 小题2: In the author’s opinion, the speaker ______. A.gave a correct judgment of the English level of the students | B.had exaggerated(夸大) the language problems of the students | C.was right in saying that English teachers were not doing their jobs | D.could think and speak intelligently | 小题3:The author’s attitude towards the speaker’s remarks is ______. A.neutral | B.positive | C.critical | D.compromising | 小题4:It can be concluded from the passage that ______. A.it is justifiable(有理由的) to include English as a school subject | B.the author disagrees with the speaker over the standard of English at Grade 9 level | C.English language teaching is by no means an easy job | D.language improvement needs time and effort | 小题5:In the passage the author argues that ______. A.it is unfair to blame the English teachers for the language deficiencies of the students | B.young people would not commit offences against the language if the teachers did their jobs properly | C.to eliminate(消除) language deficiencies one must have sensitive eyes and ears | D.to improve the standard of English requires the effort of several generations |
