about life in china today? if you do, please put your stories here.wu peng, anhui i am a 14-year-old boy from a poor village in anhui province. like many other left-behind children in china, i live with my grandparents now. my parents went to work in shanghai several years ago. they call me twice a month to ask about my study. i really miss my parents and i hope i can go to school in shanghai. i think every child needs parents love and care.cindy, shenzheni like traveling and i have traveled a lot around china. during the trip, i often find that a number of chinese often break the rules in public. for example, when i traveled in hong kong this year, i saw a kid eating noodles on the underground, which was against the rules. however, the kids mother didnt think she did wrong. can you believe it? lets improve our public manners. mike, shanghai these days, were asked to “clear our plates” when having our meals and say no to wasting. some of us used to order more than what we could eat. that was a big waste of food. now we need to finish the food we order. we should also stop wasting in some other ways. for example, we should turn off the lights when we leave the classroom. 31.

especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).above all else, i look for understanding in a friend. a good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. he is not quick to give his opinion. instead, he tries to learn from others. he puts himself in the other persons place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. he is also a good listener.at the same time, however, a good friend is honest. he does not look for faults (过错) in others. he notices their good points. in short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.another quality of a friend is reliability. i can always depend on (信赖) a good friend. if he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, i can be sure that he will be there. if i need help, he will do his best to help me. if i am in trouble, he will not run away from me.there is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. a special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. we should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. that is why i especially like friends who are fun to be with. a good friend likes the same things i like. we share experience (经验) and learn from each other. a good friend has a good sense of humour, too. he likes to laugh with me. that is how we share in the joy of being friends. and i know that he is looking for the same quality in me.when i meet someone who is reliable, honest, and

write, most of them in developing countries. two-thirds are women and girls.john wood who started the room to read campaign（运动）, has opened 1,650 schools and 15,000 libraries in some of the worlds poorest communities（社区）. he said that from the beginning, room to reads goal was to reach 10 million children around the world in the poorest countries.in 1998, on a three-week vacation journey in nepal, wood met a local headmaster who invited him to visit his school in a far mountain village. the experience changed woods life.“this headmaster had 450 students at the school, but he didnt have any books,” wood said.” he had a library that was empty.”wood promised to fill the library shelves and returned to the village year later with some of his friends with 3,000 books. and that was just the start. later, wood used some of his personal money to start room to read. he believes that world change begins with educated children. today, the programme can be found in 10 countries across asia and africa.wood believes the key to the programs success is local support .while room to read gives away money and provides books, communities offer land and parents help build the school. agnes, a room to read teacher in zambia who also runs the library, is proud to say the literacy at her school has improved. room to reads biggest challenge is the huge need. hundreds of communities have asked for literacy programmes. one way of room to reads success is that it will achieve woods goal of reaching 10 million kids by 2015, five years earlier than it is planned.38. the purpose of the room to read campaign is to _. a. ask parents to read together with their children b. help poor children to learn to read and write c. tell more people the importance of reading d. help 10 million children to

created in the twentieth century. in the last forty years, business contacts between japan and the west have become very important. many foreign companies now have offices in japan and japanese businessmen do business around the world. differences between japanese and western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder foreign businessmen and make doing business in japan difficult for foreigners.the american businessman, for example, wants to start talking business immediately. he does not want to wait. the japanese businessman, on the other hand, likes to arrive at decisions after giving them serious thought. another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a japanese means “yes” or “no”. this is because of cultural differences between japanese and western society(社会), which make it difficult for a japanese to say “no” directly.in the usa, it is easy to say “no” to something one does not want to do. but in japan, it is very difficult to say “no”. to refuse an invitation or a request(请求) with “no” is felt to be impolite. it is thought to be selfish and unfriendly. so instead of saying “no” directly, the japanese have developed many ways to avoid(避免) saying “no”. these can help them avoid hurting other peoples feelings. however, this often makes their ways of doing business rather difficult for foreigners to understand and follow.42. what often makes foreigners feel difficult to do business in japan?a. their different ways of doing business.b. their different lifestyles.c. the fact that the japanese never say “no”.d. the fact that the japanese are slow to take action.43. which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined expression “bewilder foreign businessmen” in paragraph one?a. cause foreign businessmen to change their minds.b. give a feeling of surprise to foreign businessmen.c. attract foreign businessmens attention.d. make foreign businessmen think wrongly.44. what fact does the passage lead you to believe?a. american businessmen do things more slowly than japanese ones.b. american businessmen like to say “yes” and “no”.c. americans usually say what they are thinking.d. americans do not say what they think or feel clearly.45. from the passage we can infer(推断) that _.a. japanese businessmen are good at business b. foreign businessmen should try to know japanese ways of doing businessc. foreign businessmen must be more polite d. you must learn from japanese businessmen if you want to succeed第ii卷 非选择题（60分）四、词汇应用（共10小题；每小题1分，计10分）根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。（每空一词）46.his advice is of
