| There are a lot of things that happen to me in China but would certainly never happen in the US. One of those things is being called"strong". The first time was last December. I was walking across the high school campus in Guangzhou where I taught when a student in a gray scarf waved hello. I smiled and waved back, but then she stopped and called my name."You're so strong!" She smiled and pointed at what appeared to be my right arm. I looked down at my arms. Let's get one thing clear: I'm a very skinny guy. Once, while rehearsing for a high school talent show, I was told by the teacher in charge that I couldn't participate in the men's shirtless dance routine because my visible rib cage (胸腔) would frighten the audience. "I'm so what?""You're so strong!" she repeated."Um, thanks!" I didn't know what else to say, so we both waved goodbye. The next morning I stepped into my oral English classroom only to be greeted instantly by a unanimous (异口同声的) "Waaa!" of shock and admiration."What?" I asked."You're so strong!" shouted a boy from the back of the class. "Okay, will someone tell me what that means?" I was curious as to the real reason for such praise. So I turned to the monitor, gesturing for him to speak. "We just mean, you look very strong today," he offered earnestly. "What?! You mean like this?" I curled (卷起) my arm like a body-builder. "No! But it's so cold, and you're only wearing a short-sleeved shirt." Oh, I got it. My"strength" had less to do with my muscle and more to do with my apparent ignorance of the cold weather. |
| 1. From the passage we can learn that the author is _______. |
| A. an American teacher B. an American student C. a Chinese teacher D. a Chinese student |
| 2. The author used the example of being refused to join in the dance routine to show that ______. |

| 3. The underlined word "she" in the 4th paragraph refers to ______. |
| A. a stranger he met on the way to work B. the teacher in charge of the dance routine C. the girl who joined in the rehearsing D. the girl he met on the campus |
| 4. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? |

| Bright red post boxes, the Queen and queuing-what do they all have in common? They are all important parts of British life. At least I thought so. However, the ability to queue for long periods of time, once believed to be a traditional characteristic of the British, is no longer tolerated by people in the UK, according to a survey done for British bank Barclays. Once upon a time, queuing was seen as normal. During World WarⅡ, everyone had to queue up to receive their daily supply of foods. In fact, if you didn't stand up and wait in line with all the others, it was seen as uncivilized (不文明的). The famous English double-decker buses, with only one entrance, might also help explain why queuing was seen as a part of British life. Almost always, there is queue to get on. But perhaps the British are tired of being pushed past by the Spanish, the Italians or the French as they queue up to get a table at a restaurant. The people of these other European countries have more than one entrance to their buses, which explains their more relaxed attitude to the queue. Two minutes is now the longest time most British people are prepared to stand and wait. But could it be that the Internet, which allows us to carry out tasks quickly, is the main reason why British people are no longer prepared to queue? "Used to buying without delay, customers are even giving up purchases rather than wait their turn," says Stuart Neal of Barclaycard. "Shoppers are also less likely to queue for long if the item they are buying is of low value." Perhaps I will have to replace "queuing" with"impatience" in my list of things I relate to the British. |
| 1. What can we learn about the tradition of queuing in Britain? |
| A. It was considered a symbol of a civilized behavior. B. It was a long time tradition as old as the Queen. C. It was a product of the slow pace of life. D. It has made the Britain different from other Europeans. |
| 2. According to the passage, the British gradually stopped queuing because ______. |
| A. they prefer shopping online B. the Internet has changed their way of life C. British buses have more than one entrance D. they follow the example of foreigners |
| 3. It can be learned from the text that ______. |
| A. the British like to eat in foreign restaurants B. the British have to queue to receive food C. the British get impatient with queuing for long D. the British prefer to take double-decker buses |
| 4. The author's main purpose of writing the passage is _______. |
| A. to tell us the influence of the Internet on the British ways of life B. to compare the cultural difference between Britain and other countries C. to report his research on the British ways of life D. to talk about the changes in the attitude to queuing in Britain |

| When most people think of giant pandas, the pictures of the cute, black-and-white bears from China that eat bamboo will immediately jump into their mind. Scientists from Mississippi State University, however, are interested in what the bears leave behind; their poop (排泄物). At a recent meeting in Denver, Professor Brown at the university presented her research showing how panda poop could inspire a new way to obtain energy from plants, which are a renewable energy source. Usually, plants can be called biomass (有机燃料) when they are used as an energy source. Burning biomass is one way to capture its energy, but Brown hopes panda poop can teach scientists something about breaking down biomass. Pandas - or at least the bacteria in their stomachs - are very good at getting energy out of bamboo. Unlike cows, which use 4 stomachs to digest large amounts of grass, a panda has only one stomach. Bamboo comes in, and poop goes out. Every day for 14 months, Brown and her team on this project, counted the bacteria in the poop of the two pandas. Ya Ya and Le Le living at the Memphis Zoo. Her studies turned up 12 species of bacteria that break down biomass, including one that had never been found in pandas. Brown says that because the poop contains bacteria that break down biomass, it could also be used to break down other types of biomass. Now the scientists hope to identify the chemicals that help with the process of breaking down biomass and then figure out how the bacteria work. If those chemicals can be made in the lab, they could be used to turn biomass - like grass or other plants - into fuel. Brown says she doesn't mind handling panda poop."It's probably the most pleasant material to work with," she says,"My colleagues and I have been working with other poop for a long time, and we can assure you it has a fairly pleasant smell associated with it." |
| 1. The importance of studying panda poop is _______. |
| A. to explore a new way to get energy from plants B. to create a renewable energy from plants C. to learn a lesson of energy from panda poop D. to figure out how the bacteria work for us mankind |
| 2. The process of the panda poop project can be described as ______. a. Identify the chemicals helpful to break down biomass. b. Find the bacteria in panda poop which break down bamboo. c. Reproduce the chemicals in the lab to turn biomass into energy. d. Analyze how the bacteria in panda poop work in panda's stomach. |
| A. a, b, d, e B. a, d, c, b C. b, d, a, c D. b, a, d, c |
| 3. What does the author mainly want to express in the 2nd paragraph? |
| A. Pandas don't digest bamboo the same way as cows. B. Pandas are capable of getting energy using stomachs. C. Scientists have learn something new from panda poop. D. Pandas can get energy from bamboo more efficiently. |
| 4. What does Professor Brown think of working with panda poop? |
| A. Enjoyable. B. Challenging. C. Inspiring. D. Sick. |

| When you hear the word "recycling", what comes to your mind? The color green or global warming? What if I were to tell you there is a dark side of recycling? A type of recycling that does more harm than good. The dark side of recycling has nothing to do with the environment but rather has a lot to do with the recycling of ideas. Environmental unrest isn't the only trouble we must face. Idea pollution is quickly becoming widespread across the online world. Think about it. When was the last time you read an original blog post? I'm guessing it has been quite a while. Why do you think top bloggers (博主) of today win so much respect? Do you think they recycle their ideas? With each recycled idea the online world becomes much more polluted. Used content contributes to the ever increasing mass of digital smog (烟雾). The first step to reduce pollution is simple: stop recycling. When you stop recycling, you will then be forced to take up the task of creating from your own ideas. When you recycle an excellent idea, it soon becomes good. When you recycle a good idea, it soon becomes just OK. The chain continues until the key part of what used to make the idea good is saturated (饱和), leaving you nothing but a pile of mess. In order not to pollute, your ideas must go beyond "just recycled". Your ideas must stand out from the pollution of the web. For your voice and talent to be heard and seen, you must go far beyond the standard copy of your neighbors' ideas. For the next week, make a promise not to recycle. Let your ideas flourish and flow. Believe in your ability to create, because the death of recycling starts with YOU. |
| 1. Which is true about top bloggers of today according to the writer? |
| A. They are not worth much respect. B. They tend to express many fresh ideas. C. They often recycle their ideas. D. They make good use of others' ideas. |
| 2. The 5th paragraph mainly talks about ______. |
| A. how to stop recycling ideas B. the good effects of stopping recycling C. the bad effects of recycling ideas D. how to recycle good ideas online |
| 3. This passage is written mainly for ______. |
| A. top bloggers B. net researchers C. environment polluters D. common bloggers |
| 4. The main purpose of this passage is ______. |
| A. to remind people to pay attention to environmental protection B. to prove that the web environment is becoming worse and worse C. to call on people to write online more creatively instead of repeating D. to warn people not to pollute our web environment with bad words |
