cincinnati (a city in the us) as an au pair (家庭打工留学生), a lot of things there were different from what i knew. my host family lived in a huge house i could only describe as a “castle”. in germany i had lived in a small apartment together with my mom. soon i found out that the “castle” was actually rather small in our neighborhood.everybody there was very friendly and polite. they greeted you when they were walking by at least 3 feet away from you. they must not have seen a german au pair before, for most people i met asked me all kinds of questions about germany. i enjoyed answering their various strange questions. i made a lot of friends and i started to hang out with them.of course, there were a number of new things, and it took me the whole year to find them all out. i never got homesick. perhaps it was because i did not have too many negative (负面的) experiences and felt loved and welcomed there.however, i had undergone some painful experiences back in germany. i was frustrated by the way people would run me over and not even say “sorry.”taking up my studies at the tu-dresden, i felt lonely. everybody here seemed to be withdrawn (离群的) and i missed everything i had in cincinnati. germany was so “cold”. i found it so much harder to make new friends. after six months i got a roommate and only two good friends. i also flew back to cincinnati several times for long periods. i felt that without those visits i was not able to make it.now i am over this german culture shock. it almost took me an entire year. i am still going back and forward between dresden and cincinnati four times a year.21. when the author lived in cincinnati, _.a. some people were not very kind to herb. many people were curious about her motherlandc. she lived in a real castled. she

experienced. how to be an au pair in usabas a music teacher for twenty-seven years, i have always known that music touches the soul. it can break through all kinds of barriers to reach students in a very special way. it can be the means for each child to find their light. a few years ago, i was blessed with the opportunity to teach pre-school students one afternoon a week. one of my most memorable students was vanessa. she was five years old, had difficulty walking, and could not speak. we mostly sat on the floor for our music lessons and vanessa liked to sit on my lap. one of her favorite songs was john the rabbit. it was a call and response song where i sang the call and the students clapped two times while singing the repeating phrase,oh, yes! vanessa liked to put her hands together with mine and clap with me. we performed that song during every class, vanessa and i clapping together. she never said or sang a word. one day late in the school year, when the song was finished, vanessa turned around, looked me in the eye, clapped her tiny hands two times and said the words oh, yes! i opened my mouth and for that moment i was the one who could not speak. through music, we had made a connection. several years later, i came acrossvanessa on the street in town. i stopped my car and waved to say hello. she waved back with a big smile on her face and then clapped her hands two times, mimicking (模仿) the song we had performed in our music class. this precious little girl, through her connection with music, left an impression on me that will last forever. every child has the ability to learn and grow. it is up to us educators to discover the way to reach each and every one of our students. we all must find each childs light.25. the author thinks music _.a.

mankind. b. disabled children are natural music lovers.c. teachers should find a way to discover students light. d. a good educator ought to help students learn through music.cromantic comedies have long been regarded as the perfect movie for a first date. but according to a study, romantic comedies such as bridget joness diary and notting hill could be bad for your love life.rather than being harmless entertainment, rom-coms give people unrealistic and potentially unhealthy expectations about real-life relationships, scientists say.researchers found that those who watched romantic comedies were more likely to believe in predestined love (缘份) than those who preferred other kinds of movie.they were also more likely to believe that perfect relationships happen instantly, and were less likely to believe that couples need to work at relationships.watching just one romantic comedy is enough to sway peoples attitudes to romantic love, they found.dr bjarne holmes, who led the research, said: we are not killing joys - we are not saying that people shouldnt watch these movies. but we are saying that it would be helpful if people were more aware and more critical of the messages in these films. the problem is that while most of us know that the idea of a perfect relationship is unrealistic, some of us are still more influenced than we realize.for the first part of the study, dr holmes and colleagues at the family and personal relationships laboratory at heriot watt university, edinburgh, studied 40 box office hits from 1995 to 2005.most of those comedies described couples falling instantly in love and promoted the idea of fate -the belief that there is just one perfect companion out there, they found.theres a belief of destiny and couples in romantic comedies immediately understand each other, said dr holmes. if you think thats how things are, you are setting yourself up to be disappointed.in a second study, dr holmes asked around 100 student volunteers to watch serendipity - the 2001 romantic comedy starring kate beckinsale and john cusack, while 100 watched a david lynch drama.in a questionnaire after the film ended, students watching the rom-com were far more likely to believe in fate and destiny than those who had watched the straight film.28. according to the passage if you are fond of watching romantic comedies, you _.a. are more likely to believe in future loveb. must be influenced by filmsc. may expect a perfect relationship in your love lifed. may fall instantly in love with one of your classmates29. the underlined word destiny most probably means_.a. fate b. love c. beauty d. romance30. the purpose of dr bjame hohnes research is _.a. to promote the idea of fateb. to ask us to keep away from romantic comediesc. to show how romantic comedies have influence on our lifed. to remind us of the negative effect of watching romantic comedies31. it is implied in the passage that _.a. watching comedies is harmful to a stable marriageb. it is necessary for couples to work at their relationshipc. couples falling instantly in love end up with an unhappy marriaged. we should watch more straight films instead of romantic comediesdbelieve it or not, going to school is not a legal(法定的) requirement in the united states. it is a legal requirement that all kids be educated, though. when parents believe they can give their kids a better education- or have other reasons for not wanting to send their kids to a local school - they may choose home schooling.however, if a kid hates school, home schooling is probably not the escape he is looking for. home schooled students can learn just as much as they would in regular school if they and their parents work hard to cover all the subjects and experiences necessary. parents who home school usually have higher levels of education than parents who do not. they already have the skills to educate themselves about teaching their kids.parents who home school have to be able to put the time and skill into not just teaching, but also researching lesson plans and resources(资源). so they have to know how to find the information necessary to teach their kids. state schools often provide home-schooling parents with a curriculum(课程), books and materials and places to meet. some state schools will point parents to other resources for brushing up on forgotten subjects. or parents may receive continuing education at local colleges or universities.32. according to american law, _. a. all kids shall go to schoolb. all kids must receive educationc. home schooling parents shall receive continuing educationd. state schools must give support to home-schooling parents33. according to the text, most home-schooling parents_. a. are short of moneyb. dislike schoolsc. used to work as teachersd. are well-educated34. the underlined phrase “brushing up on” in the last paragraph can best be replaced by _.a. reviewingb. changingc. choosingd. discussing35. what can be inferred from the text? a. home schooled kids learn fewer.b. home schooled kids spend less time studying.c. being a home-schooling parent needs a lot of effort.d. home schooling will replaced school education.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。how to become smarterthere are three things that will get you ahead in life: good looks, smarts and being considered as being smart. the first is
