They know the time that has increased on the _44_ is the time they owe before they can have a _45_.” If the students respond _46_, Landis doesnt count the time on the watch against them. Many other teachers _47_ techniques slightly different from hers. One teacher we know counts aloud in Japanese - and the counting doesnt stop until all the students _48_. She changes the language each month, so children learn to count in a new _49_ while they manage their own _50_! Another “countdown” teacher _51_ a goal for the counting time that a given class can gather. During the first week of school, that goal might be 200 seconds; the goal might decrease _52_ twenty-five seconds each week, until it is down to 100 seconds a day at the end of the first month. _53_ the students dont gather that many seconds of owed-time, he shares a “joke of the day”. He says the kids hate to miss out on the _54_ - even if it is a tasteless one! Unlike the more concrete awards some teachers provide, this award _55_ him only the price of a good joke book! 36. A.

Recent research indicates that the mobile phone is changing not only our culture, but our very bodies as well.First, lets talk about culture. This has several effects. The most common one, however, and perhaps the thing that has changed our culture forever, is the “meeting” influence. People no longer need to make firm plans about when and where to meet. Twenty years ago, a Friday night would need to be arranged in advance. You needed enough time to allow everyone to get from their place of work to the first meeting place. Now, however, a night out can be arranged on the run. It is no longer “see you there at 8”, but “text me around 8 and well see where we all are”.Texting changes people as well. In their paper, “Iinsights into the Social and Psychological(心理上的) Effects of SMS Text Messaging”, two British researchers distinguished between two types of mobile phone users: the “talkers” and the “texters”-those who prefer voice to text message and those who prefer text to voice.They found that the mobile phones individuality and privacy gave texters the ability to express a whole new outer personality. Texters were likely to report that their family would be surprised if they were to read their texts. This suggests that texting allowed texters to present a self-image that differed from the one familiar to those who knew them well.Another scientist wrote of the changes that mobiles have brought to body language. There are two kinds that people use while speaking on the phone. There is the “speakeasy”: the head is held high, in a self-confident way, chatting away. And there is the “spacemaker”: these people focus on themselves and keep out other people.Who can blame them? Phone meetings get cancelled or reformed and camera-phones intrude （闯入）on peoples privacy. So, it is understandable if your mobile makes you nervous. But perhaps you neednt worry so much. After all, it is good to talk.60. When people plan to meet nowadays, they_.A. arrange the meeting place beforehandB. put off fixing the place till last minuteC. seldom care about when and where to meetD. still love to work out detailed meeting plans61. According to the two British researchers, the social and psychological effects are most likely to be seen on_.A. talkers B. the “speakeasy” C. the “spacemaker” D. texters62. According to the passage, who is afraid of being heard while talking on the mobile?A. Talkers B. The speakeasy C. The spacemaker D. Texters63. The best title for the passage might be_.A. The SMS effect B. Cultural implication of mobile useC. Change in the use of the mobile D. Body language and the mobile phoneCIn the past, the working-class tended to be paid less than middle-class people, such as teachers and doctors. As a result of this and also of the fact that workers jobs were generally much less secure, distinct differences in life-styles and attitudes came into existence. The typical working man would collect his wages on Friday evening and then, it was widely believed, having given his wife her “housekeeping”, would go out and spend the rest on beer and betting.The type of what a middle-class man did with his money was perhaps nearer the truth. He tended to-and still tends to- take a longer-term view. Not only did he regard buying a house as those that provided him and his family with security. Only in very few cases did workers have the opportunity (or the education and training) to make such long-term plans.Nowadays, a great deal has changed. In a large number of cases factory workers earn as much, if not more, than their middle-class managers. Social security and laws have made it less necessary than before to worry about “tomorrow”. Working-class people seem slowly to be losing the feeling of inferiority (自卑)they had in the past. In fact there has been a growing tendency in the past few years for the middle-classes to feel slightly ashamed of their position.The changes in both life-styles and attitudes are probably most easily seen among younger people. They generally tend to share very similar tastes in music and clothes, they spend their money in having a good time, and save for holidays or longer-term plans when necessary. There seems to be much less difference than in previous generations. However, we still have a wide gap between the well-paid (whatever the type of job they may have) and the low-paid. As long as this gap exists, there will always be a possibility that new conflicts and jealousies will exist, or rather that the old conflicts will re-appear, but between different groups.64. Which of the following is seen as the cause of class differences in the past?A. Life style and occupation B. Attitude and incomeC. Income and job security D. Job security and hobbies65. The writer seems to suggest that the description of _ is the closest to truth.A. middle -class ways of spending moneyB. working-class ways of spending the weekendC. working-class drinking habitsD. middle-class attitudes66. Working-class peoples sense of security increased as a result of all the following factors except_.A. better social security B. more job opportunitiesC. higher living standard D. better legal protection67. Which of the following statements is UNTRUE? A. Changes are slowly taking place in all classes of the British society.B. The gap between working -class and middle- class young people is narrowing.C. Differences in income will remain but those in occupation will disappear.D. Middle-class people may sometimes feel worse than working-class people. DFor several days I saw little of Mr. Rochester. In the morning he seemed much occupied with business, and in the afternoon gentlemen from the neighourhood called and sometimes stayed to dine with him. When his foot was well enough, he rode out a great deal，and all my knowledge of him was limited to occasional meetings about the house, when he would sometimes pass me coldly, and sometimes bow and smile. His changes of manner did not offend me, because I saw that I had nothing to do with the cause of them.One evening, several days later, I was invited to talk to Mr. Rochester after dinner. He was sitting in his armchair, and looked not quite so serious. There was a smile on his lips, and his eyes were bright, probably with wine. As I was looking at him, he suddenly turned, and asked me, “Do you think Im handsome, Miss Eyre?”The answer somehow slipped from my tongue before I realized it: “No, sir.”“Ah, you really are unusual! You are a quiet, serious little person, but you can be almost rude.”“Sir, Im sorry. I should have said that beauty doesnt matter, or something like that.”“No, you shouldnt! I see, you criticize my appearance, and then you stab(刺) me in the back! You have honest
