But Wang Xianjiong， schoolmaster of Nanshi Primary School， which was listed as being investigated， said he had not heard that any of his students had cards. But he admitted it was not unusual for primary students to use name cards. “Primary students should mainly concentrate on studying， instead of social intercourse，”Wang said.The Yangcheng Evening News report said most of the cards were prepared by parents， who hoped the cards would improve their childrens communication skills. In China， most families have only one child,and many of these children are said to have poor social skills. The report quoted primary student Jia Xiaoyong，a school monitor who decided himself to print his name cards. He said he believed name cards would improve his efficiency to organize student activities. But Wang Xianjiong said name cards were unnecessary for primary students. A local education official named Pan said he was surprised and upset by the news. He thinks education authorities（机构）and schools have long been engaged in organizing various activities to improve primary students social lives，and name cards alone could not make children more sociable.“If children are kidnapped（绑架）by outlaws， they can try to give their cards to warm-hearted people to seek rescue，” the report quoted a parent as saying. Names， telephone numbers and e-mail and home addresses，hobbies and personal ambitions were often printed on the childrens cards， the report said.Many students themselves asked their parents to print the cards mainly for the novelty （新鲜感）of having them rather than to meet actual communication demands， the report said.56.

He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money， they can see what they really value in life.He says our relations with others often become clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does， it brings to the relationship to that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesnt. This person may say that he has a certain feeling， but if it is not carried out in the money world， there is something less real about it.Since money is so important to us， we consider those who possess（own）a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book.Question： What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich， because you are a self-made man？Answer： The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect. I am nothing. I dont know much. All I am is rich.People just have an idea of making more and more money， but what is it for？ How much do I need for any given purposes in my life？ In his book， the professor uncovered an important need in modern society： to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than an end. Money plays an important role in the material world， but expecting money to give happiness maybe miss the meaning of life.64. The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money _.A. is a good way to test your friendshipB. will do harm to your friendshipC. will strengthen your friendshipD. is a good way to break off your friendship65. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview？A. He doesnt feel that he is well educated.B. He doesnt think he is a very important person.C. He doesnt consider himself to be very successful.D. He doesnt think that being rich deserves（应得到）so much attention.66. What does the American professor of philosophy want to explain in his book？A. Money is an end. B. Money is a means.C. Money is everything. D. Money is unimportant.67. Which of following might the author disagree？A. Money is important in modern society.B. The meaning of life does not completely lie in money.C. Wealth will surely bring the owner happiness.D. Happiness is not necessarily the result of wealthDWhen you are curious（好奇的）about something， and want to know more about it， you can use the way of asking questions.
