everyone. parents can help you. teachers can help you. others can help you. but all these only help you to help yourself.there have been many great men in history. but many of them were poor in childhood, and had no uncles, aunts or friends to help them. schools were few and not very good. they could not depend on them for education. they saw how it was, and set to work with all their strength to know something. they worked their own way till they became well-known.one of the most famous teachers in england used to tell his pupils, i can not make worthy men of you, but i can help you make men of yourselves.some young men do not try their best to make themselves valuable to the human beings. they can never gain achievements unless they see their weak-points and change their courses. they are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as they live, unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on their own honest efforts.4. which of the following would be the best title for the passage? a. how to be famous b. what nature says to everyone c. depend on yourself d. men must help each other5. many of the great men in history succeeded because_. a. they were very poor in childhood b. they wanted very much to become famous c. they made great efforts to learn and work d. they could not depend on schools for education6. according to the famous

from this article we can learn that the writer a. is a man of strong character b. sings high praise for parents c. thinks highly of those men struggling by their own efforts d. feels it is the most important of all to accept the advice of otherscwhen i was a child, i often dreamed of the time when i could leave home and escape to the city. we lived on a farm and, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. as soon as i left school, i packed my bags and moved to the capital. however, i soon discovered that city life has its problems too. one big disadvantage is moneyit costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. another disadvantage is pollution. i suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that i am afraid to go outside. then there is the problem of traveling round. although i have a car, i seldom use it because of the traffic jams. one choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous. of course there are advantages. first, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment. besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising-and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.is life better then, in the city? perhaps it is, when you are in your teens or twenties. however, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. i certainly hope to move back there soon.8. the writer was always thinking about when he was a child. a. staying on the farm b. leaving home for the city c. moving to the countryside d. running away from the school9. what can we learn about the writer from the passage? a. he lives in the city now. b. he prefers driving a car. c. he is in good health. d. he is very old now.10. in the passage, the writer tries to. a. describe his life in the countryside b. show an interest in the outside world c. persuade the reader to live in the city d. express his opinions about way of life11. how is the passage mainly developed? a. by giving explanations. b. by listing examples. c. by comparing. d. by inferring.d what is language for? some people seem to think its for practising grammar rules and learning lists of words-the longer the lists, the better. thats wrong. language is for the exchange(交流) of ideas and information. its meaningless knowing all about a language if you cant use it freely. many students i have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they cant speak correctly or fluently.they are afraid of making mistakes. one shouldnt be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. native speakers make mistakes and break rules, too. bernard shaw once wrote, foreigners often speak english too correctly. but the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that chinese students make. theyre english mistakes in the english language. and if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. what used to be wrong, becomes right. people not only make history, they make language. but a people can only make its own language. it cant make another peoples language. so chinese students of english should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldnt overdo(做过头) it. they should put communication first.12. language is used to_. a. express oneself b. learn lists of words c. practise grammar rules d. talk with foreigners only13. generally, when an american or an englishman speaks english, he or she _. a. cant avoid making mistakes b. always makes mistakes c. never makes mistakes d. often makes mistakes14. the sentence foreigners often speak english too
