The foreigner was quite surprised at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the girl had not heard him clearly, he said, Yes, indeed, you speak very well. But the girl still kept saying, No. In the end, the American boy could not understand and didnt know what to say.Whats wrong with the girls answer? She didnt accept a compliment(夸奖) in the same way as the American people do. She should answer, Thank you instead of “No. She really understood what the American boy had said, but she thought she should be modest. In the west, people will feel proud and confident when they are praised. So if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say, Thank you.”In our country, we think being modest is a virtue（美德）and being proud is a bad thing, but in my opinion, being confident does not mean being proud, so sometimes you should be confident instead of being modest.If you are modest and say, No, Im afraid I cant do it well, while working in a western country, the others may think that you really cannot do it. If you often say, “No”, you will certainly be_by others. When asking for a job, if one says something likeYes,I can certainly do it”instead of “let me have a try”，he or she will expect to get it. So in the west, you should be brave to show your self-confidence。26 . Why did the Chinese girl say“No”when she was praised?ABecause she thought she should be proud.BBecause she thought she should be confident.CBecause she thought she should be modest.DBecause she thought she is a student.27 . If you say,“I can do it well.“when asking for a job in the west，the others may think that _.AYou can do it well.BYou cant do it well.CYou like doing it.DYou dont like doing it.28 . What does the underlined part“looked down upon”mean in Chinese?A瞧不起B瞧得起C表扬D批评29 . Which of the following is true according to the passage?AThe girl didnt hear the boy clearly.BThe American boy understood the girls answer.CIn China, people think being modest is a virtue.DThe writer thinks being modest means being proud.30 . What does the writer want to tell us?AWe should be proud and selfish in the west.BWe should be modest and confident in the West.CWe should be modest and brave in the West.DWe should be brave and confident in the West.Here Id like to tell you something about my aunt Mary.

On Thursday 15 January 2009, a US Airways plane with 155 people on board landed on the icy waters of the Hudson River after a bird strike upon takeoff.After a flock of birds struck the plane, both engines were damaged and passengers heard a loud bang and smelled smoke. The pilot then radioed to air traffic controlling tower that he had suffered a bird strike and reported an emergency. He said that he needed to go back, and air traffic controllers gave him permission to do so, but he then said he wanted to head to Teterboro, New Jersey, because it was closer.With no power, the captain attempted the impossible: to land in the Hudson River. The plane cleared the George Washington Bridge by less than 900 feet before eventually gliding into the water. The way it hit it was very slow, soft and smooth.The captain came on and said, Look, were going down. Get ready for impact(冲击力).“Everyone looked at each other and we said our prayers. I said about five Hail Marys.” Sai Kolodjay when he remembered the terrifying moment.As soon as the plane hit the water, police, fire and Coast Guard boats as well as private yachts and commercial ferries from all directions came to help and were quickly on the scene as passengers lined up on safety chutes(逃生滑道) and were immediately taken away from the sinking plane. The captain was the last person to leave the plane. He walked up and down the plane twice before finally getting on a police boat when the plane began to sink.“I dont think theres enough praise to go around for someone who does something like this.”said former Delta pilot Denny Walsh.President Bush also praised those involved in the rescue. “Laura and I are inspired by the skill and heroism of the flight crew as well as the dedication( 奉献 ) and selflessness of the emergency responders and volunteers who rescued passengers from the icy waters of the Hudson,” he said.34 . The U. S. Airways plane landed within a few minutes after takeoff because_.Athere was a technical problem with the engineBthere was a bomb (炸弹) on the planeCterrorists hijacked the planeDbirds stroke the plane35 . After reporting the emergency, the pilot decided to fly to Teterboro, New Jersey instead of returning to the airport for the reason that_.Athere was a bigger airport in Teterboro, New JerseyBhe was afraid that the plane would crash and explode soonCthe controlling tower did not allow him to go backDhe wanted to try water landing and set up a record36 . The underlined “it” in the last sentence of the 3rd paragraph stands for_.Athe planeBthe bridgeCthe waterDthe ferry37 . Why did the pilot walk up and down the plane twice before he got on the police boat?AHe was checking whether all the passengers had all left the plane.BHe was trying to find out the problem with the engine.CHe was sending a signal to the controlling tower nearby.DHe was waiting for the policemen to take him away soon.38 . The name “Laura” in the last paragraph reminds you of the following names expect_.AJuliane Kopcke from PeruBPeng Liyuan from ChinaCPrincess Kate from BritainDMichelle Obama from the U.S.四、阅读判断How do animals communicate (交流) with each other? They have special “languages”. In fact, they are using signals (信号). Different signals have different meanings.For example, when a bee (蜜蜂) finds food somewhere, it flies home quickly. It cant speak, but it can tell others by dancing. Other bees will know where and how far the food is.Some animals show their feelings by making sounds. For example, when a dog is angry, it barks (吠). At this time, youd better stay away from it. Birds can make different sounds to show different meanings. Sometimes we humans show feelings by making sounds instead of by speaking. For example, when we feel painful (疼痛的), we cry“Oh!”or“Ouch!”.We humans have languages and words. We can communicate face to face by speaking. We can write down what happened in order to remember clearly. We can also send (寄) messages to people far away. But animals cant.根据短文内容，判断正（A）误（B）。39 . Animals can communicate (交流) with each other by using signals (信号).40 . A bee can tell others the messages by singing songs.41 . Birds can make different sounds to show different meanings.42 .
