If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how "foolish" the Finnish people are. Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilorneter. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety. The dining rooms in an big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge. The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly. With so many loopholes (漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take "petty advantages". But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always corne back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has everbeen found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real "gentleman". In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others? |
1. While taking a taxi in Finland, a passenger _____. |
[ ] |
A. can go anywhere without having to pay the driver B. only pays two US dollars for a taxi ride C. can neverbe tumed down by the taxi driver whereVer he wants to go D. needs to provide good faith denlonstration before leaving without paying |
2. We can know from the passage that in Finland _____. |
[ ] |
A. both hotel guests and outside diners are served food free of charge B. big hotels provide meals for all kinds of diners C. guests can enjoy free food once they stayed in the hotel D. big hotels are mostly poorly managed |
3. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? |
[ ] |
A. Generally speaking, in Finland, workers can get more pay by working long hours. B. The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay. C. The workers are always honest with their working hours. D. The bosses are too busy to check the working hours of their employees. |
4. It can be concluded that _____. |
[ ] |
A. Finnish people are really foolish in daily life B. Finland has been a good place for cheats C. the Finnish society is of very high moral level D. all the Finns are rich and therefore honest |

It was graduation day at the university where I work and a beautiful day quite unlike the first graduation I attended as a young professor. On that cold day years ago, as we watched the students walking into the hall, one of my colleagues turned to me and said, "Graduation will be one of the happiest and one of the saddest time of your life." At my inquiry, he answered, "Because the students you have gotten to know have to leave." As years went by, my previous confusion about my colleague's words no longer existed. When I came across naughty students, I have had to rethink why I chose to be a teacher. It obviously isn't the money. Once a former computer science student of mine called me, asking me if I wanted to have a change. He was working at Nintendo Corporation. His salary was higher than my current one, though I have more education and have worked for over a decade. With my programming skills, he said he could get me hired I thanked him, but declined his kind offer. A few days before this current graduation, while working on final grades, I found a note a student had slipped in with her homework. She thanked me for being her teacher and said the things she had learned in my class-not about math, but about life-would be things she would remember long after the math skills had faded away. As I finished reading, I remembered why I had become a teacher. Now, on this sunny graduation day, as I again observed the sea of blue hats and gowns, I did so with renewed dedication (奉献) and a deeper sense of satisfaction-I will always be grateful that I am a teacher. |
1. Hearing his colleague's description of graduation for the first time, the author _____. |
[ ] |
A. quite agreed with his colleague B. thought it very funny C. was very puzzled D. was very sad |
2. The computer science student called up the author because he _____. |
[ ] |
A. wanted to inform the author of his present job B. tried to persuade the author to work with him C. wanted the author to share his joy and satisfaction D. thought the author wasn't fit to be a teacher |
3. The underlined part blue hats and gowns refers to _____. |
[ ] |
A. university colleagues B. life memories C. graduates' clothes D. decorations in the hall |
4. The author wrote this passage to _____. |
[ ] |
A. express his devotion to being a teacher B. compare two different graduation ceremonies C. talk about the meaning of graduation D. give advice on how to be a good teacher |
5. The reason why he earns less than the computer science student is that _____. |
[ ] |
A. he was only a young professor B. he didn't do well in his work C. he taught his students more about life than math D. salaries for different careers are different |

Research shows that humans switch from selfish to unselfish behaviour when they are watched. Do you?
somehow coded into humans and people respond this way unconsciously, or without realizing it. It is not just humans that act unselfishly when they are being watched. A fish called the grooming fish cleans other fish. When other fish are around, it is gentler. When no other fish are around, however, the grooming fish bites chunks from the fish it is supposed to be cleaning. The researchers suggest that the best way to get people to behave in the correct way is to make them feel watched. This could be the reason for the success of a famous American army poster. On it was a picture of an elderly man staring fiercely and pointing, it appeared, to the person who was looking at the poster. Under the picture was the caption "I Want You". It encouraged hundreds of thousands of young American men to join the army during the Second World War to fight the Germans and Japanese. | ||

[ ] | ||
A. He does not want to be shamed by others. B. He needs to show he is a good person. C. He desires others to like him more. D. He feels he will receive some social reward. | ||

[ ] | ||
A. In a newspaper. B. In a scientific journal. C. In an advertising magazine. D. In a science textbook. |
