would be my english literature class. having taught in the us for 17 years, i had no 16 about my ability to hold their attention and to 17 on them my admiration for the literature（文学）of my mother tongue.i was shocked when the monitor shouted, “ 18 !” and the entire class rose as i entered the room, and i was somewhat 19 about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness（尴尬）was over, i quickly 20 my calmness and began what i thought was a fact packed lecture, sure to gain their respect perhaps 21 their admiration. i went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a (n) 22 of achievements.my students 23 diaries. however, as i read them, the rosy glow was gradually 44 by a strong sense of sadness. the first diary said, “our literature teacher didnt teach us anything today. 25 her next lecture will be better.” greatly surprised, i read diary after diary, each expressing a 26 subject. “didnt i teach them anything? i described the entire philosophical framework（哲学体系）of western thought and laid the historical 27 for all the works well study in class,” i complained. “how 28 they say i didnt teach them anything?”it was a long term, and it 29 became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as 30 of my students. i thought a teachers job was to raise 31 questions and provide enough background so that students could 32 their own conclusions. my students thought a teachers job was to provide 33 information as directly and clearly as possible. what a difference! 34 , i also learned a lot, and my experience with my chinese students has made me a 35 american teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.16aworrybideacdoubtdexperience17aimpressbputcleavedfix18aattentionblook outcat easedstand

you can drink before you reach this limit. it varies with each person depending on our weight, your sex, if youve just eaten and what sort of drinks youve had. some people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks. in fact, your drinking ability can be affected by just one or tow drinks. even if youre below the legal limit, you could still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving has been affected by alcohol. it takes about an hour for the body to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink. so, if you have a heavy drinking session in the evening you might find that your driving ability is still affected the next morning, or you could even find that youre still over the legal limit. in addition, if youve had a few drinks at lunchtime, another one or tow drinks in the early evening may well put you over the legal limit. in a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had had the more certain they ere that they could drive a test course through a set of moveable posts and the less able they were to do it ! so the only way to be sure youre safe is not to drink at all. alcohol is a major cause of road accidents. one is three of the drivers killed in road accidents have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit, and road accidents after drinking are the biggest cause of death among young men. more than half of people stopped by the police to take a breath analyzer test have a blood alcohol concentration of more than twice the legal limit. it is important to remember that driving after youve been drinking doesnt just affect you. if youre involved in an accident it affects a lot of other people as well, not least the person you might kill or injure.36、if the police think that you have been drinking from the way you are driving , youll possibly _.a. be fined b. receive a severe punishmentc. be taken to court by the police d. feel guilt37、we may infer that even a professional driver will find hard to pass through a set of moveable posts if he drinks _.a. heavily b. a little c. every day d. occasionally38、this passage indicated that _.a driver who does not take any alcohol will not die in road accidentsthose who drink must be killedmore young men die in drink-related accidents than in any other wayone is three of the drivers often drinks a lot39、one of the writers purposes in writing the passage is to tell you that _.young men should never drive quickly driving after drinking may put many lives at risksafe drinking is impossible the manner of drinking is meaninglessbit is naturally impossible for a well educated, intellectual（懂道理的）,or brave man to make money-the chief of his thoughts; it is naturally impossible for him to make his dinnerthe necessary object of him. all healthyminded people like their dinner, but their dinner is not the main object of their lives. so all healthyminded people like making moneybut the main object of their lives is not money; it is something more important than money.a good soldier for instance, mainly wished to do his fighting well. he is glad for his payvery properly so, and justly complains when you keep him ten months without it; still his main aim of his life is to win battles, not to be paid for winning them.as for doctors, they like fees, no doubt ought to like them; yet if they are brave and well educated, the entire object（目标） of their lives is not fees. they, on the whole, wishes to cure me sick, andthey are good doctors, and the choices is fairly put to themwould rather cure their patients and lose their fees than kill him and get it. and so with all other brave and rightly trained mentheir work is first, their fees second, very important always, but still second. 226w40、.the text is mainly about _. a.money is not everything but no money is nothing b.work is first but money is also important c.work is the chief opinion of the good peoples lives d.people like less work but more money41、.according to the text, it is _ that a good solider will run away when a drowning man needs help but there is no money.a.impossible b.possible c.clever d.foolish 42、.the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph means _. a.their patient b.their work c.the object of lives d.their money43、.if you are middle school teacher described in the text, what will you do if you are not paid for six months? a.to quarrel with the headmaster b.to go on teaching in this school c.to give up the teaching in this school and find a teaching job in another school d.to go on teaching after getting paidchistory is a societys memory and forms part of peoples identity（身份）. but taiwans government has proposed a change to their history. in the move their textbooks will separate the islands history from the rest of china.by disconnecting the islands history from the mainland, the government hopes to create a stronger taiwan identity.under new guidelines（方针）to be carried out in 2006, taiwan has ordered high schools to change textbooks to create one book of taiwans history. at the moment their books cover the complete chinese history. but following the new move chinese history will be taught as part of international history. no longer to be included as part of taiwans history is the founding of the republic of china (roc) in 1911 by sun yat-sen. this event will be in the new international history book.“it is a political attempt by taiwans leader chen shuibian to make their education support taiwans independence,” said li weiyi, spokesman for the taiwan affairs office of the state council.this move has also received great opposition in taiwans schools. “the new outline is too political and facts have been changed,” said yu lin, the headmaster of taipei middle school. “it will confuse students understanding of history.”“who on earth should i think is the founding father of the roc?” asked a student in taipei. “many famous people in history like confucius（孔子）or sun yat-sen, who was considered father of the roc for more than half a century, should now be thought of as foreigners based upon this ridiculous logic,” he said.many people have shown opposition to the move. “history cannot be changed. mixing politics with our history means forgetting our ancestors,” said lien chan, chairman of kuomintang party. “it will not do any good for the taiwanese and only worsen cross-straits relations.” 313w44、.what is mainly described in the passage? a.taiwans government has proposed a change to their history textbooks in 2006. b.taiwan authorities want to separate the island from the mainland. c.taiwan leaders want to make their education support taiwans independence. d.taiwan leaders try to confuse students understanding of history.45、.whats the excuse for the

create a stronger taiwanese identity.46、.which of the following is not included in the move? a.chinese history will be taught as part of international history. b.the founding of the republic of china (roc) in 1911 by sun yat-sen will be in the new international history book.c.sun yat-sen will be considered father of the roc.d.many famous people in history like confucius or sun yat-sen will be

are helping scientists to predict how, when, and where big storms will happen. the more exact scientists warnings are, the better people can prepare for the storms.predictions are improving. “were gotten better over the years, especially the last few years,” says phil klotzbach, a scientist at an american university. how is a storm formed? even if scientists know where a storm will happen, winds can suddenly change, carrying the storm to a new direction. “for a hurricane to happen, conditions have to be just right, ” klotzbach says.first, the ocean water needs to be warm enough so that it evaporates and rises into the air. as it rises, the vapor（水蒸气）cools and turns back into liquid. this process gives off heat. this produces energy like an engine that causes winds to increase. it drives the formation of a hurricane.if wind speeds reach 40 miles per hour, the system is called a “tropical storm”, and it gets a name. at 75 miles per hour, it becomes a hurricane.hurricanes that hit the us start when a thunderstorm forms off the coast of africa. storms also develop over tropical waters in other parts of the world.on average, 60 or 70 storms form off africa every year. about 10 of them get names. there are usually about six hurricanes. two tend to be very big, with winds of 115 miles per hour or higher.the hurricane season lasts from june to november. ninety percent of all hurricanes hit in august, september, and october. 285w48、.according to the passage, hurricanes usually _. a.form off the coast of africa and americab.travel at 40 milies per hour and get its namec.cause sea winds to rise and blow over the sead.hit parts of the world in summer and autumn49、.the underlined word “evaporates” (in paragraph 5) probably means “_”. a.begins to move b.gets lost c.becomes hot d.changes into gas50、.which of the following about the information of a hurricane is the correct order? a.the ocean water evaporates and goes into the air. b.heat creates energy and cuases winds to increase. c.the vaport cools. d.the ocean water is warm enough. e.the vapor changes back into liquid. f.this course gives out heat. a.a, d, e, b, c, f b.a, b, c, f, d, e c.d, a, c, e, f, b d.d, a, b, c, e, f四、认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意：每空格1个单词，不得用文章中的单词。（10分） scientists develop non-stick chewing gumscientists have developed a non-stick chewing gum that can be easily
