7.                                          From the Other Side
     Lara and Tara are twins.(56)A but they are very different in 
everything else.For example,hot food is Lara's favorite,and Tara has a sweet choice.
     However,this isn't the problem with the twin girls.They always argued that the opposite one was wrong. (57)E,while Tara insisted that mornings were fresh and it was difficult to stay up till midnight.
    (58)B.To put an end to their fights,their parents decided to create a small drama.They wanted the girls to understand that they were both correct from  their own point of view.Their parents covered the girls'eyes with black ribbons,and brought them to the dining room.(59)DLara was asked to stand on one side of the board and Tara on the other.They couldn't see the other side of it.When the ribbons were taken away,they were surprised to see a huge board between them.
     Now,their father asked Lara,"What's the color of the board?"She replied,"It's black!"(60)C.She replied,"It's white!"The two girls began to argue again.While Lara was confident it was black,Tara was sure it was white.Then,they were asked to exchange(交換)their places.They couldn't believe their eyes.Tara,who insisted it was a white board,saw a black one.Similarly,Lara,who argued the board was black,was shocked to see a white one.They understood that each of them was right in her own view.Most of us are like Lara and Tara.We are right most times,but insist that others are wrong!

A.They look like each other
B.For years,their arguments continued
C.Their mother asked Tara the same question
D.In the room,a big board was placed in the middle
E.Lara thought it was terrible to get up early in the morning.

12.Last summer,Maria and her mother moved from their house in the countryside to a flat building in Chicago.Maria really liked some things about the city,but she missed her house and yard in the countryside.
One day,Maria was in her flat building when she noticed her neighbor,Mrs.Garcia,carrying a gardening tool and a bag of soil.Maria wondered how Mrs.Garcia was able to garden in the city.
"My mom used to grow the most delicious vegetables,and I know she misses her garden now that we don't have a yard,"said Maria.
Mrs.Garcia laughed."I'll show you,"she said.
Maria thought that Mrs.Garcia would take her to the park,but she took her to the roof (屋頂).When the door opened,Maria was surprised to see rows of flowers and vegetables on the roof.
"What a wonderful garden!"said Maria.
Mrs.Garcia told Maria that for a long time the roof was just an empty space.Then some of the people in the building asked the owners to turn it into a community garden.The building owners liked the idea because the plants not only helped to keep the air clean,but they also helped to keep the building cooler during warmer weather.
"I plant flowers in my own place,"Mrs.Garcia said,but you would be surprised by how different the plants are up here.Some people grow vegetables just like your mom.You can do some of the same things in the city as in the countryside.You just have to be creative!"

28.Which of the following is NOT the advantage of the community garden?D
A.It used the empty space well.
B.It helped keep the air clean

A.go back to the countryside
B.pick flowers from the garden

18.As an English,I can speak three languages-English,German and French,so do you think the British people are very good language learners?The fact is that they aren't.
Some statistics (數(shù)據(jù)) from the survey done by the European Commission (歐盟委員會(huì))showed that 
62% of the British people only speak English.38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more.Compared with the British people,56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more.
From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.
And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language.
Many European people can have a conversation in English.That's why my people don't think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.
In Britain,students are not required to learn a foreign language.That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school.In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14.So why don't students continue learning foreign languages at school?Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.To solve this situation,the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school.One way is to start learning it at a much younger age.Another one is to give school children more choices.
Changing the British attitude (態(tài)度) to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try!
61.Which country does the writer come from?C
A.America.
B.China.
C.Britain.
D.Egypt.
62.Which of the following about the British people is true?D
A.They are good language learners.
B.62% of them speak two or more languages.
C.They are famous for speaking foreign languages.
D.More than half of them only speak English.
63.According to the passage,students in Britain prefer to learnC.
A.science or German  
B.history or German
C.science or history  
D.German or French
64.In Paragraph 4,"an option"meansA.
A.a(chǎn) choice  
B.a(chǎn) game  
C.a(chǎn) mistake  
D.a(chǎn) conversation
65.What is the best title of the passage?B
A.Speaking English  
B.Foreign Language Learning in UK
C.Schools in UK  
D.Young English Learners.
