Its a pleasure to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to and accepts other people as equals. A down-to-earth person is just the opposite of someone who acts importantly and proudly. Down-to-earth person may be important members of society, of course. But they do not let their importance “go to their heads”. They do not consider themselves to be better persons than others of less importance. Someone who is filled with his own importance and pride, often without cause, is said to “have his nose in the air”. There is no way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth. Americans use another expression that means almost the same as “down-to-earth”. Its “both-feet-on-the-ground”. Someone with “both-feet-on-the-ground” is a person with a good understanding of reality. He has what is called “mon sense”. He may have dreams, but he does not allow them to block his knowledge of what is real. The opposite kind of person is one who has his “head-in-the-clouds”. A man with his “head-in-the-clouds” is a dreamer whose mind is not in the real world. Sometimes, such a dreamer can be brought back to earth. Sharp words from a teacher can usually bring a day-dreaming student down-to-earth. Usually, the down-to-earth person is very likely to have their “both-feet-on-the-ground”. When we have our both-feet-on-the-ground, when we are down-to-earth, we act honestly and openly towards others. Our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.51. “But they dont let their importance go to their heads” means that _. A. they are important but they do not want to be important. B. they do not show out that they are much better than others. C. they think others are less important but they do not look down upon them. D. they have a calm mind and are not proud of their importance.52. After reading the passage, what do you think a person with “both-feet-on-the-ground” is like? A. He is a person who is honest, modest, realistic and easy to go with. B. He is a person who is kind to others and never looks down upon them. C. He is a person who thinks they themselves less important than others. D. He is a person who never thinks they themselves are a lot better than others.53. “mon sense” here means _. A. real sense without dreaming B. the sense of correct understanding and judging C. not special senses, but mon D. the senses of ordinary people54. If you want to be a person who is down-to-earth, youd better _. A. listen to your teachers sharp words often B. act importantly and proudly C. act honestly and openly towards others D. do more important things BLet children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time: if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other peoples. In the same way, children learning to do all the other things: they learn to do without being taught to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle, pare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.If it is a matter of right answer, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine(常规) work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he cant find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, and how to know what they know or do not know.55. According to the passage, the best way for children to learn things is by _.A. listening to skilled peoples advice B. asking older people many questionsC. making mistakes and having them corrected D. doing what other people do56. Which of the following does the writer think teachers should NOT do?A. Give children correct answers. B. Allow children to make mistakes.C. Point out childrens mistakes to them. D. Let children mark their own work.57. According to the writer, teachers in school should _.A. allow children to learn from each other B. point out childrens mistakes whenever foundC. give children more book knowledge D. correct childrens mistakes as soon as possible58. The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are _.A. different from learning other skills B. the same as learning skillsC. more important than other skills D. not really important skills CCara Lang is 13.

EHow is it that a people who had no written language and didnt even know of the existence of the wheel could within the space of a hundred years build an empire that spanned (横越) some 2,500 miles across South America?The people Im referring to are of course the Inca. The Inca were a small ethnic group who came to rule an empire of more than 12 million people. They ruled their empire from Cuzco in Peru and were not the brutal(残忍的) conquerors that many think them to be. They took control of other cultures through a mixture arms and gifts. They were skilled craftsmen who were able to produce beautiful jewelry and textiles(纺织品). Many villagers were so impressed by them that they thought of them as gods. The Inca were in many ways very tolerant and assimilated (吸收) new peoples, their cultures and even their religions into their own, but not so the Spanish conquistadors who arrived in 1532.With an army of less than 400 men they were able to defeat the 40,000 strong Inca army and they soon set about looting and plundering(掠夺, 抢劫, 劫掠) the riches of the Inca culture. Most of the amazing architecture and plex building they had worked to build up was torn down and made into palaces and fortresses for the conquering Spanish.Amazingly, one Inca site remained undiscovered until 1911. It was the amazing Machu Picchu, the Inca temple to the sun, but by this time of course the Inca were long gone, either killed off by conquistadors or the diseases that they brought with them. Today it still stands, at the top a mountain beside the Urubamba River in Peru, a memorial to the greatness of a people that we can now only read about in books.67.

The Inca had no written language but they mastered the technology of the wheel.C. On their way to building an empire, the Inca had slaughtered many people of other groups.D. The Inca a small ethnic group but later it had a population of 12 million people.68. Which of the following is NOT a contribution for the Incas successful control of other cultures? A. They were skilled craftsmen, which so deeply impressed the villagers that they thought
