They look down upon other countries. But Americans say that the British are quite good workers. They are brave and honest. And in time of trouble they face difficulties happily.You can see that these ideas can cause misunderstanding between the British and Americans.

He, from a very early age, has been looking after sheep. At twelve years old he knows more about sheep than most of you, however, he has never been to school. Has this boy ever had any education?Education is discovering about ourselves and about the people and things around us. All the people who care about usour parents, brothers, sisters, friendsare our teachers. In fact, we learn something from everyone we meet. We start learning on the day we are born, not on the first day we go to school. Every day we have new experiences, like finding a birds nest, discovering a new street in our neighborhood, making friends with someone we didnt like before. New experiences are even more fun when we share them with other people.Encouragement from the people around us enables us to explore things as much as possible. As we grow up, we begin to find out what we are capable of doing .You may be good at cooking, or singing or playing football. You find this out by doing these things. Just thinking about cooking doesnt tell you if you are good at it.We can learn so much from life. So why is school important? Of course you can learn some things better at home than at school, like how to do the shopping, and how to help old or disabled people who cant do everything for themselves. At school, teachers help us to read and write. With their guidance, we begin to see things in different ways.54. The author takes an African boy for example to show that_.A.

Scientists have founded the sun this summer. The warning: The suns summer time rays are more dangerous than once thought.A team of scientists from 80 nations recently reported to the United Nations that a layer of ozone (臭氧层) in the atmosphere, which protects humans from harmful levels of ultraviolet (紫外的) radiation, will be thinner over the United States this summer. The thinner layer allows more ultraviolet rays from the sun to reach earth. The extra amount of ultraviolet radiation could cause an increase in the number of cases of skin cancer.Scientists first became concerned about the ozone layer in the mid-1980s when a hole was discovered in the layer above Antarctic during the winter. The hole was caused by chemicals used in refrigerators and air conditioners. When these chemicals are sent out into the atmosphere, they produce gases that destroy the ozone.Concern about the protective ozone layer rose more recently when data (数据) from satellites and ground stations showed that ozone levels were dropping over areas other than Antarctic. Low ozone Levels were recorded in the spring and summer over the United States and over other populated areas in the world.Although many countries have already begun stopping the use of ozone-destroying chemicals, the new findings are expected to advance the timetable for a total ban (禁止) of the chemicals.58. The scientists have observed the ozone layer_.A. since 1980 B. since last winterC. for more than 20years D. for about one year59. The ozone layer in the atmosphere can_.A. do a lot of good to human beings in many waysB. protect humans from diseases caused by bad weatherC. do a lot of harm to human beings in the summer timeD. protect humans from harmful levels of ultraviolet radiation60.

The damage to the ozone layer was caused by _.A. the changeable weatherB. ozone-destroying chemicalsC. chemicals from refrigeratorsD. chemicals from air conditioners62. Which of the following is NOT true?A. The use of ozone-destroying chemicals have already been stopped.B. The ozone levels in the spring and summer over the USA were low.C. More and more people have begun to protect the natural surroundings.D. Many countries have already taken measures to protect ozone layer.DNo matter where you are, knowing how to protect yourself and your family during an earthquake is necessary.

Hold on to whatever youre using for cover, as the ground motion may be violent. Get away from glass, book cases or anything heavy that could fall over on you.Stay away from the doorsDoorways used to be recommended but most exports now say stay away from them. Doors can suddenly shut with bone crushing force. Anyway, the experts say that in modern construction a door way is no stronger than any other location along the wall.Try to run outsideWhile the ground is moving and immediately afterward, the greatest danger is of being injured by taking a fall or by being hit by a falling piece of building as you exit. If you smell gas or when the shaking stops, calmly, carefully make your way out and get clear of the building. Before you leave get shoes on, you will be walking on broken glass.

His health was so bad that when offered the presidency of Israel in 1952 he had to decline (拒绝) it.He had an aortic (大动脉的)aneurysm (动脉瘤) that could burst at any time, and this is what eventually killed him. And he refused the surgery that could have saved his life. The doctors told him that he could go anytime from a minute to a few days. And Einstein still refused the surgery. The day passed quietly, and on the morning of Saturday April 15, 1955, Einstein seemed to be better. He was at home drafting a statement for Israels Independence Day.
