(2 x 15 = 30)a about a year ago, i went to stay at a detroit hotel. i didnt want to carry too much money with me, so i asked the desk clerk to put a one-hundred-dollar bill in the safe for me. the next morning, however, the clerk said he knew nothing about my money. i didnt have any proof that i had given the man the money. there was nothing i could do but go to the nearest lawyer. the lawyer advised me to return to the hotel with him and give another one-hundred-dollar bill to the clerk. this i did. an hour later, i went back to the desk alone and asked for my money. since i had the lawyer as an eyewitness to the second one-hundred-dollar bill, the clerk could not say he knew nothing about it.another hour later, i put the second part of the lawyers plan into action. this time both the lawyer and i went to the hotel. i asked for the one-hundred-dollar bill once again, and when the clerk insisted he had already given it to me, i denied it. the lawyer said to him, “i saw this gentleman give you a hundred dollars. if you dont hand it over immediately, ill be forced to call the police.” the clerk realized he had been tricked, so he gave me back the first one-hundred-dollar bill. “i dont know how to thank you enough for getting my money back,” i said to the lawyer. and what do you suppose he answered me? he said, “oh, dont thank me. that will be a hundred dollars, please.”56. the man went to a detroit hotel one day to_. a. get his money back b. put a hundred-dollar bill in the safe c. ask to be a desk clerk d. stay for the night57. the hotel clerk at last returned the first one-hundred-dollar bill to the man because _. a. he knew the lawyers plan very well b. he found the lawyer tricking him c. he wanted no trouble with the police d. he wanted to give the man a surprise58. it is clear that the hotel clerk was_. a. dishonest b. ready to help c. afraid of the lawyer d. foolish59. which of the following statements is true?

a. wise b. glad c. happy d. sad b ideas about education are changing in the united states. education today is not just a high school diploma (文凭) or a college degree. many adults are not interested in going to college. they are interested in other kinds of learning. for them, learning does not end with a diploma. continuing education gives these adults the chance to increase their knowledge. it also gives them a chance to improve their old skills or to learn new ones. if they know more or learn more, then they can get a better job or earn more money. there are usually a large number of classes to choose from. some adults learn new skills. some take classes for fun or because the class will be useful for them. others take classes to improve their own lives because they want to feel better about themselves. and still others learn how to be good parents, or how to get along with other people.there are many chances for adults to continue their learning. almost any community college or public school system has a continuing education program. there are classes in schools, buildings, or churches. most classes are in the evening, so working people can attend. the classes are usually small, and they are inexpensive. thousands of people take continuing education classes each year. they receive no diploma and no grade for most of the classes they attend. for them, learning is something they do because they want to.61. nowadays, some adults go to continuing education classes to _. a. just get a college education b. learn new skills c. just get a certificate (证书) d. earn grades62. attending continuing education classes _. a. does not cost much money b. is expensive c. requires a lot d. is free of charge63. what is the main idea of the last paragraph? a. adults can continue their learning. b. most continuing education classes are in the evening. c. adults have many chances to continue their learning. d. classes are held for working people.64. lots of people attend continuing education classes because _. a. the classes will help them feel better about themselves b. there are many courses they can choose from c. they can also go to church at the same time d. learning is something they are interested in doing65. we can infer from the passage that _. a. college education is not important b. adult education is very popular c. other kinds of learning are more important than school learning d. continuing education classes teach the same courses that are taught in collegesclearn to communicate with others talking to teachersteachers are just people behind the desk, living breathing human beings. and they will probably be friendly to people who talk nicely to them. teachers also seem to get along better with children who take schoolwork seriously and prepare for class. and, just like any other human being, teachers like to be appreciated. the next time your teacher helps you solve a math problem or figure out a science project, say thank you with a smile. talking to parentsparents can be very supportive if their children ask for help. if you think theres something your parents can do to help you feel more comfortable around people, then ask them. very often, parents want very much to help, but really dont know what to do. pick a quiet time of the day and ask to talk. tell them how you feel. maybe they had the same trouble when they were kids. talking to strangersthis is always a tough one. how do you deal with a neighbor, or the mail carrier? that often seems to cause arguments between kids and parents. the answer to these questions will vary from kid to kid, from parent to parent because all cultures are different. some folks live in small towns where a hello to everyone is ok. then there are kids who live in the city who may have been taught not to speak to anyone they dont know. if youre having trouble with this and always feel awkward in these kinds of situations, you might want to talk to your parents or a teacher about it. 66. from the first paragraph we may learn that teachers dislike _. a. being talked to nicely b. their students to be serious with the schoolwork c. the students appreciation d. the students who are not ready for classes.67. if your parents are not supportive and you are not getting along quite well with your parents, who or what is to blame?

a. kids b. teachers c. school headmasters d. parents70. which is the best way to talk to strangers according to the passage? a. say hello to everyone you meet. b. do not talk to anyone you dont know. c. do as what your parents taught you. d. its hard to say because cultures are different.part four writingsection a (1 x 10 = 10)directions: read the following passage. complete the diag
