One day one person met him and said, Do you know what I just heard about your friend?. Hold on a minute, Socrates replied. Before telling me anything Id like you to pass a little test. Its called the Triple Filter Test(三重过滤测试). Before you talk to me about my friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what youre going to say. Thats why I call it the Triple Filter Test. The first filter is truth. Have you made absolutely(完全地) sure that what you are about to tell me is true? No, the man said, actually I just heard about it and. All right, said Socrates. So you dont know whether its true or not. Now lets try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good? No, on the contrary. So, Socrates continued, you want to tell me something bad about him, but youre not certain its true. You may still pass the test though, because theres one filter left: the filter of Usefulness(有益性). Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me? No, not really. Well, said Socrates, if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me? （1）Socrates came from_. A . AsiaB . AmericaC . AfricaD . Europe（2）The person wanted to tell Socrates about_. A . what he heardB . what he sawC . what he metD . what he did（3）The Triple Filter Test had _questions.

A . somethingB . anythingC . everythingD . nothing4. （10分） Many people go to school for an education. They learn languages, history, politics, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living.School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teachers job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula（公式）. It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in math. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem.Great scientists before us didnt get everything from school. Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison didnt even finish primary school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. Above all, they knew how to use their brain.（1）People go to school to _.A . learn several subjectsB . make a livingC . get an educationD . learn from teachers（2）According to the passage, the most important thing a teacher should do is _.A . to teacher his students everything he knowsB . to teach the students how to thinkC . to know everything they want to knowD . to teach the students how to work out a math problem（3）To work out a math problem, you need to know _.A . only a certain formulaB . a certain factC . some factsD . the way to solve it（4）Why were many scientists so successful?A . They received good education.B . They were very clever.C . They knew how to learn.D . They learned lots of facts and formulas.（5）How did great scientists study?A . They read a lot of books and asked many questions while reading.B . They did thousands of experimentsC . They always worked hard and never wasted time.D . All of the above.5. （10分）阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。To us, it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But in fact the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. Its first use was as a shade (遮蔽) against the sun.Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the 11th century BC.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor and power. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office or by royal people such as the kings or queens.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. The umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece, but it is believed that the first people in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans. During the middle ages in Europe, the use of the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it became a symbol of power. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight.
