you know how to use the story to document your point. you are a very talented writer.” i offered my sincere evaluation one day after class.on hearing my words, jessica bowed her head, studied her shoes, readjusted her book bag, and stood awkwardly avoiding any eye contact. she spoke just above a whisper, “i suppose my writing is sometimes not bad.”what was going on here? had i broken some rule? was i guilty of a cultural faux pas(失礼, 失言)?as an educator with forty years experience, i found jessicas response to my evaluation to be one of the most difficult adjustments i had to make. we had been told to expect this from adults. “mr wu, your wife is very pretty.”“oh, no, she is common looking.”“mrs wang, your son is a good student.”“he needs to study even harder. he is sometimes lazy.” but i wasnt ready for it in the classroom.praise has always been one of my teaching tools. i dont use it indiscriminately(不加选择地), and i dont exaggerate(夸大), but i have always felt that students need to be told when they have accomplished something.“joe, i like your shirt.”“margaret, your writing gets better every week.”“sam, thats a great answer. how did you get so much wisdom at such an early age?”as a product of my culture, i can use such statements easily without hesitation and with sincerity.as a product of their culture, the students responded awkwardly. they just werent used to hearing such an appraisal of themselves. in fact, some students expressed dissatisfaction because i did not always write harsh(苛刻的), stern criticisms on their papers. they were expecting me to tell them the worst instead of the best.cultural faux pas or not, i am too old to change my methods, so i ignored dissatisfaction and continued with my honest evaluations. this reminds me! i need to send jessica an e-mail today. she just sent me a copy of a short story she has written, and she wants my opinion. i must tell her truthfully. i like it!40. why did jessica bow her head and study her shoes?a. because her shoes were dirty.b. because she felt nervous to face her teacher.c. because she felt sorry because she did a bad job.d. because its her modest manner.41. whats the meaning of “he needs to study even harder. he is sometimes lazy”?a. “he” is bad student.b. “he” doesnt study hard.c. the father isnt satisfied with his son.d. its just a humble response to the praise.42. what will the author do according to the passage?a. praising jessica again because of her nice short story.b. adjusting himself and stopping praising students.c. learning more about chinese culture.d. leaving the place. cnow let us look at how we read. when we read a printed text, our eyes move across a page in short, jerky movement. we recognize words usually when our eyes are still when they fixate. each time they fixate, we see a group of words. this is known as the recognition span or the visual span. the length of time ofr which the eyes stop -the duration of the fixation -varies considerably from person to person. it also vaies within any one person according to his purpose in reading and his familiarity with the text. furthermore, it can be affected by such factors as lighting and tiredness.unfortunately, in the past, many reading improvement courses have concentrated too much on how our eyes move across the printed page. as a result of this misleading emphasis on the purely visual aspects of reading, numerous exercises have been devised to train the eyes to see more words at one fixation. for instance, in some exercises, words are flashed on to a screen for, say, a tenth or a twentieth of a second. one of the exercises has required students to fix their eyes on some central point, taking in the words on either side. such word patterns are often constructed in the shape of rather steep pyramids so the reader takes in more and more words at each successive fixation. all these exercises are very clever, but its one thing to improve a persons ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text efficiently. reading requires the ability to understand the relationship between words. consequently, for these reasons, many experts have now begun to question the usefulness of eye training, especially since any approach which trains a person to read isolated words and phrases would seem unlikely to help him in reading a continuous text.43. the time of the recognition span can be affected by the following facts except _ .a. ones familiarity with the textb. ones purpose in readingc. the length of a group of wordsd. lighting and tiredness44. the author may believe that reading _.a. requires a reader to take in more words at each fixationb. requires a reader to see words more quicklyc. demands an deeply-participating mindd. demands more mind than eyes45. which of the following is not true?a. the visual span is a word or a group of words we see each time.b. many experts began to question the efficiency of eye training.c. the emphasis on the purely visual aspects is misleading.d. the eye training will help readers in reading a continuous text.46. the tune of the author in writing this article is _a. critical b. neutral c. pessimistic d. optimisticda friend of mine, in response to a conversation we were having about the injustices of life, asked me the question, “who said life was going to be fair, or that it was even meant to be fair?” her question was a good one. it reminded me of something i was taught as a youngster: life isnt fair. its disappointing, but its absolutely true. one of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves, or for others, thinking that life should be fair, or that someday it will be. its not and it wont.one of the nice things about surrendering(屈从) to the fact that life isnt fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what we have. we know its not “lifes job” to make everything perfect, its our own challenge. surrendering to this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that everyone is dealt a different hand; everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process of growing up, facing the reality and making decisions; and everyone has those times that they feel victimized or unfairly treated.the fact that life isnt fair doesnt mean we shouldnt do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole. to the contrary, it suggests that we should. when we dont recognize or admit that life isnt fair, we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves. pity, of course, is a self-defeating emotion that does nothing for anyone, except to make everyone feel worse than they already do. when we do recognize that life isnt fair, however, we feel compassion(热情) for others and for ourselves. and compassion is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving-kindness to everyone it touches. the next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world, try reminding yourself of this very basic fact. you may be surprised that it can persuade you out of self-pity and into helpful action.47. the writer thought of his friends question as a good one because _.a. he also wanted to know who held such an opinionb. it made him recall something during his childhoodc. like his friend, he also thought life was unfaird. he learned something from the question as a youngster48. surrendering to the fact that life isnt fair will _.a. keep us from making everything perfectb. keep us from doing everything in our powerc. make us face unfair treatment bravelyd. make us know its our duty to perfect things49. the second paragraph of the passage mainly tells us that _.a. its nice to accept the injustice of lifeb. its nice to surrender to the lifec. we should not surrender to the lifed. we should not feel sorry for everything50. in the last paragraph, “this very basic fact” refers to the fact that _.a. you should not pity for othersb. life isnt and wont be fairc. compassion is heartfelt emotiond. pity is a self-defeating emotion四、单词拼写（共10小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分）51. the problem is that what he says does not c _ with what he

health dangers of smoking have been well reported. for years, doctors have warned that smoking can cause lung cancer. studies also have linked smoking to several other kinds of cancer, heart attacks and other diseases, lung diseases, and a number of other medical problems. the repeated health warnings have had an effect. thousands of people have stopped smoking. but as many people have learned, stopping smoking can be very difficult.a major problem apparently is the nicotine, a poisonous substance found in tobacco. small amounts of nicotine are released as tobacco is burned. and over many years of smoking, a persons body becomes dependent on the substance. an attempt to stop smoking brings the problems of nicotine withdrawal (脱瘾过程).american medical researchers have found that nicotine withdrawal causes people to become angry very easily, aggressive, worried and unable to think sharply. many people who have tried to stop smoking would confirm those findings.to help people give up smoking, some tobacco companies have proposed chewing tobacco, or using snuff as safe substitutes (替代物). snuff is a tobacco powder that usually is breathed in. but many people put it between their gum and cheek.a group of british scientists said recently that many lives could be saved by a major program to get cigarette smokers to change to snuff. an american scientist, allan blum, disagreed. dr. blum argued that snuff, put in the mouth, can cause gum disease, teeth problems and throat problems that lead to cancer. dr. blum also warned against chewing tobacco as a substitute for smoking. he said chewing tobacco can lead to cancer of the mouth, throat or digestive system.medical researchers say another possible substitute for smoking is a special nicotine chewing gum
