My teacher seemed to be the _26_ printers, curving their letters just so, and I wanted to do it 27_! Now, after “higher education”, and three_28_ career paths, I have e back to want to be a _29_, but my reasons have changed. I was _30_ in my years of high school, to have teachers that really _31_ me as an individual, and I want to_32_this back. A teachers gentleness needs to be shown when_33_ or encouraging the students. It is important to make the corrections in order for the students to learn. _34_, this needs to be done in a _35_ that will help to _36_ the student to make the changes necessary, _37_ discouraging them from learning. Being patient is also extremely important, because the class needs to know what to _38_from the teacher. This will also help to build a better agreement with the students, and help both the teacher and students to learn more about each other. If a teacher exhibits a true love of _39_ and helping students learn, many of the qualities_40_above will just fall into place. The teacher that had the most _41_on me had the best fame in the school. She was strict, and she did demand a lot, but she was able to show us it was _42_ she cared for us. She knew each of us was worth it, and she knew we each could do it. She _43_ knowledge, firmly, patiently, respectfully, and most effectively. She gently encouraged us to make _44_ when we needed to, and _45_ us when we did.

That, at least, is what it promised us. The difficulty is that it did not take the human mind into account. The reality is that we cannot keep relationships with more than a limited number of people. No matter how hard the Internet tries to put you in munication, its best efforts will be defeated by your mind.The problem is twofold（双重的）. First, there is a limit on the number of people we can hold in mind and have a meaningful relationship with. That number is about 150 and is set by the size of our brain. Second, the quality of your relationships depends on the amount of time you invest in then. We invest a lot in a small number of people and then distribute whats left among as many others as we can. The problem is that if we invest little time in a person, our engagement with that person will decline until eventually it dies into “someone I once knew”.This is not, of course, to say that the Internet doesnt serve a socially valuable function. Of course it does. But the question is not that it allows you to increase the size of your social circle to include the rest of the world, but that you can keep your relationships with your existing friends going even though you have to move to the other side of the world.In one sense, thats a good thing. But it also has a disadvantage. If you continue to invest in your old friends even though you can no longer see them, then certainly you arent using your time to make new friends where you now live. And I suspect that probably isnt the best use of your time. Meaningful relationships are about being able to municate with each other, face to face. The Internet will slow down the rate with which relationships end, but it wont stop that happening eventually.36The number of friends we can keep relationships with is decided by_.A. the Internet B. the time we have C. the place we live D. the mind37The underlined word “engagement” in the second paragraph probably means “_”.A. appointment B. connection C. interview D. agreement38The author holds the view that_.A. the Internet helps to keep in touch with friends far away B. the Internet determines the quality of social relationshipsC. the Internet greatly increases the size of social circlesD. the Internet is of no value in social munication 39What will the author encourage us to do?A. To keep in touch with old friends when we have moved away.B. To chat with friends often on the Internet.C. To make more new friends face to face.D. To stop using the Internet to make new friends.40What is the authors attitude towards the use of the Internet to strengthen relationships?A. He thinks it useless B. He is hopeful of it.C. He approves of it. D. He doubts it.A woman named Emily renewing her drivers license at the County Clerks office was asked to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself. “What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a ”“Of course I have a job,” said Emily. “Im a mother.”“We dont list mother as an occupation housewife covers it,” said the recorder. One day I found myself in the same situation. The clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title. “What is your occupation?” she asked. The words simply popped out. “Im a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair. I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my statement was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire. “Might I ask,” said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?”Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesnt), in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”There was an increasing note of respect in the clerks voice as she pleted the form, stood up, and showed me out. As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (受鼓舞) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants-ages 13, 7, and 3. Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern. I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”MotherhoodWhat a glorious career! Especially when theres a title on the door. 41What can we infer from the conversation between the woman and the recorder at the beginning of the passage?A. The recorder was impatient and rude. B. The woman felt ashamed to admit what her job was.C. The author was upset about the situation that mothers faced. D. Motherhood was not recognized and respected as a job by society. 42How did the female clerk feel at first when the author told her occupation?A. curious B. indifferent C. puzzled D. interested43Why did the woman clerk show more respect for the author?A. Because the author cared little about rewards. B. Because she thought the author did admirable work.C. Because she admired the authors research work in the lab. D. Because the writer did something she had little knowledge of. 44What is the authors purpose of writing the passage?A. To show how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it. B. To argue that motherhood is a worthy career and deserves respect. C. To show that the author had a greater job than Emily. D. To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.To help make the most of your experience at Auckland Zoo we suggest:Plan Your Day: Plan your day to learn more about your favorite zoo animals.

It was my mothers idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the petition.With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was supper time, I walked back home.“How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.“None.”“Where did you go?”“The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”“What did you do?”“Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”“You just stood there?”“Didnt sell a single one.”“My God, Russell!”Uncle Allen put in, “Well, Ive decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickle(五分镍币). It was the first nickle I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.One day, I told my mother Id changed my mind. I didnt want to make a success in the magazine business.“If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “youll bee a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me.My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my fathers plain workmans life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husbands people for true life and love.48Why did the boy start his job young?AHe wanted to be famous in the future BThe job was quite easy for him.CHis mother had high hopes for him.

Parents using facetoface buggies were twice as likely to talk to their children while the babies heart rates fell and they were twice as likely to fall asleep，showing that they were feeling relaxed and safe.In addition，only one baby out of the 20 studied laughed while sitting in an awayfacing buggy.“Our data(数据) suggests that for many babies today，life in a buggy is emotionally impoverished and possibly stressful. Stressed babies grow into anxious adults，” said Dr Suzanne Zeedyk，Developmental Psychologist at Scotlands Dundee University who carried out the research.The study，which was published by National Literacy Trust as part of its “Talk To Your Baby” campaign，found that 62 percent of all children observed travelled in awayfacing buggies.Zeedyk said it would have a negative effect on babies development if they spent a long time in awayfacing buggies，which would be bad to their ability to municate with their parent at a time when their brain was developing rapidly.Laura Barbour of the Sutton Trust，a social mobility charity which funded the research，said buggy manufacturers(制造商) should look closely at the findings.53Using awayfacing buggies may_.Abenefit both the babies and their parentsBaffect babies language ability permanentlyChelp babies municate with their parentsDhave positive effect on babies development54Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?AParents may talk twice with the babies in awayfacing buggies.BThe study suggests children feel relaxed and safe in buggies.CThe samples (案例)of the study were 20 babies wheeled in buggies.DOne of the 20 babies was twice as likely to fall asleep in buggies.55Which of the following would be the best title for the text?ABest for Kids to Face Parents in BuggyBBest for Kids to municate with ParentsCStressed Babies Grow into Anxious AdultsDBuggy Manufacturers Care about the FindingThe weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great! But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡碱)in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic mittee(IOC) has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.56Many people like drinking energy drinks because of the following EXCEPT that _. A. th
