Ge fears air travel, which means he will have to travel thousands of kilometers by train and car to promote the movies.Chen Kaiges Sacrifice (赵氏孤儿) came out on December 4. Ge plays a doctor who saves an orphan at the cost of his own baby. He also appears as a cheat in Jiang Wens Let the Bullets Fly, which appears on December 16. Next comes Feng Xiaogangs romantic comedy, If You Are the One 2 (非诚勿扰2), to open six days later. Ge plays a middle-aged cinematographer in search of love.Ge is best known for playing ordinary characters. In Fengs popular series of “new year comedies” he gives a convincing sense of “the little man up against it (处境困难)”.Feng Xiaogang says the actor exhausts himself trying to satisfy friends. He is also very careful not to offend anyone.Ge is a thoughtful man who pauses a lot in conversation to think over his answers. He rarely turns down a request for an autograph or picture. There was once a fan who said to him: “You wait here, I will go get a pen.” Ge actually waited for the man to return. “It was the 20,000th time for me to sign an autograph but it was probably a new experience for him,” Ge said. “The first time means a lot.”He says he doesnt think of himself as a star, just as a working actor. “An actor is like a worker; you do your job and go home,” he said. The old saying is never far from his mind: The higher you climb, the harder you fall.36.Ge is worried that _ this December.A. he has to travel by air to promote the moviesB. three movies he starred in are coming out at the same timeC. he has to spend so much time traveling to promote the moviesD. he cant stand a lot of long-distance traveling37.

It is published every three years by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).Chinese teenagers from Shanghai far outscored their international peers in all three subject areas: reading, math and science.In readingthe main focus of the PISA surveymore than 19 percent of the Shanghai students gained the top two grades, almost double the number of the US students and nearly three times the average of students in major developed countries.This is the first time that Chinese mainland has taken part in the PISA, and the results are especially stunning (令人大吃一惊的) because they are so unexpected. Only a short time ago, the “Cultural Revolution” (1966-1976) greatly affected the Chinese school system. But the tests suggest that education in China has been rebuilt as a modern and high-performance system, at least in some cities. Even the students of Finland and South Korea, who recently topped internationally in PISA, were left far behind by the Chinese students.The stunning performance was confirmed by the results of Chinese students in Hong Kong, who came second in math and science and ranked fourth in reading. About 10,000 students from two Chinese cities, of course, cant stand for the academic performance of a nation of more than 1.3 billion people.The findings may force people to reconsider some of their ideas about education.The survey suggests that girls almost everywhere read significantly better than boys, differently from math and science, where the tendency is reversed (相反的). It also found that teenagers who enjoy reading and read a novel for 30 minutes a day score better than those who dont, or who only read comic books.Another finding was the spectacular performance of the Asian nations. Four of the top five reading performers in the survey are Asian, with Singapore and South Korea joining Shanghai and Hong Kong at the top of the class.“We have to see this as a wake-up call,” said Arne Duncan, US Secretary of Education.“As it stands right now,” US President Barack Obama said, “America is in danger of falling behind.”39. What is the main idea of the passage?A. America is in danger of falling behind Asian countries.B. Chinese mainland took part in the PISA for the first time.C. Chinese students surprised the world with their PISA results.D. Chinese students did very well in the reading test of PISA.40. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. About 10,000 students from Shanghai have taken part in PISA.B. Students in South Korea ranked second in math and reading.C. Chinese students topped PISA, closely followed by Finland and South Korea.D. Boys fall behind girls in reading but do better in math and science.41.

Asian students good performance sets the alarm bell ringing to the US.C. Asian students are working much harder than American students.D. Asian students are catching up with American students.42 We can infer from the passage that _.A. students in Hong Kong came second in math and science and ranked fourth in readingB. president Obama is greatly annoyed by American students performance in the testC. reading novels regularly helps a lot in developing students reading abilityD. the students taking part in the test stand for the academic performance of the whole ChinaCI was in New York City the other day and rode with a friend in a taxi. When we got out my friend said to the driver, “Thank you for the ride. You did a superb job of driving.”The taxi driver was confused for a second. Then he said, “Are you a wise guy or something?”“No, my dear man, and Im not putting you on. I admire the way you keep cool in heavy traffic.”“Yeah,” the driver said and drove off.“What was that all about?” I asked.“Im trying to put love back in New York City,” my friend said. “I believe its the only thing that can save the city.”“How can one man save New York City?” I asked.“Its not one man. I believe I have made the taxi drivers day. Suppose he has 20 fares. Hes going to be nice to those 20 fares because someone was nice to him. Those fares in turn will be kinder to their employees or shop-keepers or waiters or even their own families.” He said.“It sounds good on paper,” I admitted, “but Im not sure it works in practice.” “Nothing is lost if it doesnt. Tomorrow there will be another taxi driver who I can try to make happy.”“Youre some kind of a nut,” I said.We were walking past a structure in the process of being built and passed five workmen eating their lunch. My friend stopped, “That is a magnificent job you men have been doing. When will it be finished?”“June,” a man grunted.“Ah. That really is impressive. You must be very proud,” he stated.We walked away. I said to him, “I havent seen anyone like you since The Man from La Mancha.”“Making people in this city become kind again is not an easy job, but if I can get other people to join in my campaign .”“You just winked (眨眼) at a very plain-looking woman,” I said.“Yes, I know,” he replied.“And if shes a school teacher, her class will be in for a fantastic day.”43.
