BTo be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear. Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class： he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality (音色) and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesnt mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teachers work and the actors. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand (预先). What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage. A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play：they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they dont understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience, which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along. I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.24. What is the text about ? A. How to bee a good teacher. B. What a good teacher should do outside the classroom. C. What teachers and actors could learn from each other. D. The similarities(相似处) and differences between a teachers work and an actors.25. In what way is a teachers work different from an actors ? A. The teacher must learn everything by heart . B. He knows how to control his voice better than an actor . C. He has to deal with unexpected situations . D. He has to use more facial expressions .26. Why is it that some good teachers are unable to play well on the stage ? A. Nobody has taught them how to act on the stage . B. Their audiences are different . C. It is impossible for them to do so much memory work . D. They are not used to repeating exactly the same words .27. Which of the following is true ? A. Teachers have to learn by heart what they are going to say in class . B. A teacher cannot decide beforehand what exactly he is going to say in class . C. A teacher must speak louder than an actor . D. A teacher must have a better memory than an actor . C Some people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapersWhy read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know? Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbersAnd books of every kind are sold more than ever beforeBooks are still a cheap way to get information and enjoymentAlthough some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbacks (平装本), which are quite cheapA paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every homeEvery home should have a good dictionaryA good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subjectBesides, you can have such books as history books, science textbooks, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poemsThen from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets28.It can be inferred from the passage that _ ATV programs are a chief provider of knowledge Bcinemas are the best choice in getting information Creading is a cheap way of learning and having fun Dnewspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself29. What does the sentences “Television has not killed reading, however ” underlined in the second paragraph suggest? APeople only need reading, though BReading is still necessary today CReading is more fun than televisionDWatching television doesnt help reading30Which of the following is mainly discussed in the last paragraph?ATypes of books BKinds of dictionariesCLists of history books DCollections of stories and poems31What can we learn from the passage?AFewer and fewer people will buy books BA good dictionary should be kept in every home CBooks with hard covers sell better than paperbacksDMore people like TV programs about famous menD Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly es down to luck. Im not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances dont e into play because they do .Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and thats just the reality of how life is . However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To bee great at certain things, itll require even more time, time that most people wont put in. This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you dont enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever bee good at it. When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. Its sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and theres a huge chance that youre wrong anyway. Whatever you do, if you want to bee great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If youre not willing to put in the time and work, dont expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work wont guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will bee really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.32. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about _.A.the reasons for successB.the meaning of successC.the standards of successD.the importance of success33. In Paragraph 2, the underlined word “that” refers to _.A.being good at somethingB.setting a practical goalC.putting in more timeD.succeeding in life34.Successful people suggest doing what one loves because _.A.work makes one feel painB.one tends to enjoy his workC.one gives up his work easilyD.it takes a lot of time to succeed35.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A.Successful people like to show their great skills.B.People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.C.People need to achieve success at the cost of life.D.It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.七选五（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分。共 10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出正确的填入空白处。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Are you truly happy?
