Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class；he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesnt mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teachers work and the actors. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage. A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play：they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they dont understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience, which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along. I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.41. What is the text about? A. How to bee a good teacher. B. What a good teacher should do outside the classroom. C. What teachers and actors could learn from each other? D. The similarities (相似处) and differences between a teachers work and an actors.42. The word “audience” in the fourth paragraph means _. A. students B. people who watch a play C. people who not on the stage D. people who listen to something43. A good teacher _. A. knows how to hold the interest of his students B. must have a good voice C. knows how to act on the stage D. stands or sits still while teaching44. In what way is a teachers work different from an actors? A. The teacher must learn everything by heart. B. He knows how to control his voice better than an actor. C. He has to deal with unexpected situations. D. He has to use more facial expressions.45. The main difference between students in class and a theatre audience is that _. A. students can move around in the classroom B. students must keep silent while theatre audience neednt C. no memory work is needed for the students D. the students must take part in their teachers playsBI climbed the ladder, heard my dive announced, and began the moves that would push me into the air. Pushing off the diving board with my legs, I lifted my arms and shoulders back, and knew immediately I would be close to the board and might hit my hands. I tried to correct myself as I turned, spreading my hands wide apart. Then I heard a strange sound and my body lost control. Moments later I realized I had hit my head on the board.At the beginning, I felt embarrassed. I wanted to hide, to get out of the pool without anyone seeing me. Next I felt intense fear. Had I cut my head? Was I bleeding? Was there blood in the pool? Swimming to the side, I noticed many shocked faces. People were worried about my head; I was worried about something far more threatening. An official examined my head. In a hurry, I pushed him away, and everyone else who approached me. “Dont touch me!” I felt like screaming. “Get away from me!”These were the trials (选拔赛) for the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, Korea. Until this dive, I had been ahead. But now, something else was more significant than winning. I might have endangered other divers lives if I had spilled blood in the pool. For what I knew- that few others knew was that I was HIV-positive.According to my mother, my natural parents were Samoan (萨摩亚人) and only teenagers when I was born, so they gave me up for adoption. When I was only eighteen months old, I started gym classes. At ten, I explored doing gym exercises off the diving board at the pool.Because of my dark skin, kids at school called me names. My diving made me feel good about myself when my peers made me feel stupid. At sixteen, I knew I had a shot at the 1976 Olympics.Everyone was alarmed when I hit my head on the board in Seoul. Regardless, I made it to the finals. During my last dive in the finals, I enjoyed for the last time the quietness underwater and then swam to the side of the pool. The crowd cheered, and I knew Id won - two gold medals. AIDS forced me to stop diving; I had to give up diving professionally after the Olympics.46. Immediately before he hit his head on the board, the writer _. A. climbed the ladder B. started the moves that would push him into the air C. knew he was too close to the board D. corrected his actions when he turned47.

A. practiced less B. was scared and gave up diving forever C. lost the chance to pete at the finals D. still got the chance to pete at the finalsCThe Hunan Satellite TV(HNTV) show “Where are we going, Dad?” is a big hit. Many famous stars brought their children to a strange village alone, and they had to spend 72 hours with their children there. The program fully showed us a modern version of the “how to be a good father”. As the young parents today are too busy to take care of their children, this new form of “Lost on the way” played by nanny Daddy and cute kids triggered（触发）a lot of peoples emotional resonance（共鸣）. Both the kids and their parents will find that their hearts are being drawn closer. But this kind of feeling has just proved that there is a big spiritual barrier between the modern parents and children. The TV shows like “Children are hard to support!”, “Where are we going, Dad?”, “hot mom” and “cute kids” are being more and more popular. All of these show the new parents confusion in childrens education and the appeal for the balance between career and family. In real life, on the one hand the young parents feel helpless because they are too busy to acpany their children under the pressures of work and life; on the other hand they continue to do so. The data collected by HNTV shows that nearly two-thirds of their audience are female, among whom 36% are aged from 25 to 34.We can imagine such a scene that one evening a young mother is watching the show with her young children, while her husband is still at work or trapped in socializing, or maybe is just playing puter games in the bedroom. The story of a child without the pany of father is still going on. In fact, it is sometimes the same to mothers. In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child. The participation of mother in the childrens education is also very low. It is just this kind of confusion where the parents have gone in the modern family education, and where the parents will guide their children to go that “Where are we going，Dad?” shows us. If a child wants to grow up healthily and safely into a modern citizen with independent personality and free spirit, it is very important for hi m or her to follow the parents who serve as their first teacher. Maybe this is the real reason why such kind of TV programs could get hot. The truth is that children will go where their parents go; and society will go where the children go.51. In raising a child in modern society, parents should _. A. play puter games with their children B. keep their children at home to avoid socializing C. balance well between family and career D. break down the barrier between children and teachers52. Which of the following can be inferred in the passage? A. Parents shouldnt entirely leave the education of children to the old. B. 36% of the audience of the program are female aged from 25-34. C. The program shows us the confusion where the parents and children will go to play. D. In a modern family it is often mothers who are responsible for raising a child.53. Which one is the best title of the passage? A. Confusion Behind “Where are we going, dad?” B. Modern Education is Important C. Nanny Daddy and Cute Kids D. New problems in Modern Childrens Education54. What attitude towards modern family education does the author express in the second paragraph? A. Proud. B. Worried. C. Optimistic. D. Indifferent.DRed roses were her favorites; her name was also Rose. And every year her husband sent them, tied with pretty bows. The year he died, the roses were delivered to her door. The card said, “Be my Valentine(情人)，” like all the years before.Each year he sent her roses, and the note would always say, “I love you even more this year, than last year on this day. My love for you will always grow, with every passing year.” She knew this was the last time that the roses would appear. She thought, he ordered roses in advance before this day. Her loving husband did not know that he would pass away. He always liked to do things early. Then, if he got too busy, everything would work out fine. She cut away some stems, placed them in a very special vase, and set the vase beside the picture of his smiling face. She would sit for hours in her husbands favorite chair, staring at his photo and the roses sitting there.A year went by, and it was hard to live without her mate. Loneliness and solitude had bee her fate. Then, the very hour, as on Valentines Day before, the doorbell rang, and there were roses, sitting by her door. She brought the roses in, and just looked at them in shock. Then, she went to get the telephone to call the florist(花匠）shop. The owner answered, and she asked him, if he would explain why someone would do this to her, causing her such pain.“I know your husband passed away, more than a year ago，” the owner said, “I knew youd call, and you would want to know. The flowers you received today were paid for in advance. Your husband always planned ahead. He left nothing to chance.”“There is a standing order that I have on file down here. And he has paid, well in advance; youll get them every year. There is also another thing that I think you should know. He wrote a special little card . he did this years ago.” “Then, should ever, I find out that hes no longer here. Thats the card . that should be sent to you the following year.” She thanked him and hung up the phone ，her tears now flowing hard. Her fingers shaking, she slowly reached to get the card. Inside the card, she saw that he had written her a note. Then ，as she stared in total silence, this is what he wrote: “Hello my love, I know its been a year since I was gone. I hope it hasnt been too hard for you to overe. I know it must be lonely, and the pain is very real. If it was the other way, I know how I would feel. The love we shared made everything so beautiful in life. I loved you more than words can say. You were the perfect wife.”“You were my friend and lover; you satisfied my every need. I know its only been a year, but please try not to grieve. I want you to be happy, even when you shed your tears. That is why the roses will be sent to you for years.”“When you get these roses, think of all the happiness that we had together, and how both of us were blessed. I have always loved you and I know I always will. But, my love, you must go on; you have some living still.”“Please . try to find happiness, while living out your days. I know it is not easy, but I hope you find some ways. The roses will e every year, and they will only stop when your doors not answered, when the florist stops to knock. He will e five times that day, in case you have gone out. But after his last visit, he will know without a doubt. To take the roses to the place, where Ive instructed him, and place them where we are, together once again.”55.How did Rose feel when she received roses a year after her husbands death?A.
