To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.

  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 (音色) 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 doesn’t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. 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 (預(yù)先). 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 don’t 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.

51. What is the text about ?

A. How to become 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 and differences between a teacher’s work and an actor’s.

52. 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 something

53. 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 teaching

54. In what way is a teacher’s work different from an actor’s ?

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 .

55. 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 needn’t

C. no memory work is needed for the students

D. the students must take part in their teachers’ plays

第二部分．閱讀理解（共25小題。第一節(jié)每小題2分，第二節(jié)每小題1分；滿分45分）

“Linda, if beating yourself up were an Olympic sport, you’d win a gold medal!”

Annabel, my close friend, stunned（使…震驚）me with that frank observation after I told her how I had mishandled a situation with a student in a third-grade class where I was substituting（代替）. “I should never have let him go to the boy’s room without a pass! It was my fault he got into trouble with the hall monitor! I’m so stupid!”

My friend burst out laughing, and then made her “Olympic” comment. After a brief period of reflection I had to admit that she was right. I did put myself down an awful lot. Why, just during the previous day I had called myself “a slob” for having some papers spread out on my desk, “ugly” when I left the house without makeup and “an idiot” when I left the house for an emergency substitute job without my emergency lesson plan.

In a more reflective tone, Annabel said, “I once took a workshop at church where the woman in charge had us list all the mean things we say about ourselves.”

“How many did you have on your list?” I asked.

“Fifteen,” she confessed. “But then the teacher said, ‘Now turn to the person next to you and say all the items on your list as if you were speaking to that person!’ ”

My jaw dropped，“What did you do?”

“Nothing. Nobody did. We all just sat there, until I said, ‘I could never say these things to anyone else!’ ”

“And our teacher replied, ‘Well, if you can’t say them to anyone else, then don’t ever say them to yourself!’ ”

My friend had a point. I would never insult a child of God---and I’m God’s child, too!

God, today let me be as kind to myself as I would be to another of Your children.

41. What does Annabel mean by the first sentence of the passage?

A. The writer is a good athlete.      B. The writer scolds herself too much.

C. She is encouraging the writer.     D. A gold medal is not a big deal.

42. What does the writer intends to tell us through the second and third paragraphs?

A. She has low self-esteem over some small things.

B. She often makes serious mistakes in daily life.

C. She is a third-grade teacher.

D. She cares too much about her appearance.

43. We can infer that the underlined word “slob” might be _____.

A. something untidy     B. someone dangerous   C. something dirty    D. someone lazy

44. What can we learn about Annabel?

A. She used to put herself down a lot.

B. She often goes to church.

C. She was in charge of a workshop.

D. She used to be too shy to talk to others.

45. What does the writer mean by the last sentence of the passage?

A. She is ready to turn to God for help.

B. She will be kind to all children.

C. She won’t insult(侮辱) herself as well as others.

D. She is willing to be a child of God.

 1685 was a very good year for German composers. Within the space of a month, two of the greatest were born: Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel.

Handel’s father was a barber and surgeon, which sounds like a strange combination today, but back then those occupations went hand in hand. Even though Handel was very interested in music, his father didn’t think that was a good way to earn a living, so he wanted his son to be a lawyer. The story goes that Handel smuggled a quiet piano into the house so that he could practice in secret.

One day, Handel went along when his father went to shave a duke. While his father was working, Handel sat down and played the duke’s organ. The duke was so impressed that he convinced Handel’s father to let his son study music, and Handel finally got to learn how to compose.

Handel soon discovered that what he liked most was opera. In fact, he was so passionate about opera that he even fought a duel (決斗) over it with one of his friends. Since Italy was the place to learn about opera composing, Handel went off to Italy to study. When he got home, he got a job as court composer for a German prince.

Having landed such a wonderful job, Handel immediately asked his boss for time off. He wanted to go to England, where he’d heard that there weren’t nearly enough composers to satisfy the British taste for Italian opera.

After great success writing opera in London, Handel came back to Germany. Then fate played a funny trick on Handel and his boss. The Queen of England died, and it just so happened that the prince Handel worked for was next in line to the British throne ( 王位 ). When he arrived in London as King George, followed Handel, his court composer in Germany.

In addition to serving the King, Handel became one of the most successful opera composers of his time. And he also produced them and traveled all over Europe to hire the best singers. There are stories of battles with rival ( 對手 )opera producers and of fights between rival singers. Handel apparently had quite a temper.

If you ever go to London, look for Handel’s grave in Westminster Abbey, where there’s a wonderful monument to him.

66. How did Handel begin to learn to compose?

A. His father was sure of his future success.

B. His performance impressed a duke.

C. He begged his father to send him to Italy.

D. He practiced hard and taught himself music.

67. What does the underlined word “smuggled” mean in the passage?

A. bought secretly               B. took secretly  

C. carried in advance          D. possessed personally

68. Why did Handel later settle down in Britain instead of Germany?

A. Because he could find better jobs in London.

B. Because he enjoyed greater fame in London.

C. Because his boss became King of Britain and brought him along.

D. Because London was a wonderful place to learn about opera.

69. Which of the following words can NOT be used to describe Handel, as 

shown in the passage?

A. bad-tempered   B. talented     C. enthusiastic  D. optimistic

70. Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage?

A. Handel was born in the same year with Bach.

B. Many people worked both as a barber and surgeon.

C. Handel quit his job to learn about opera in Italy.

D. Handel was buried in London and was built a monument.

Ⅲ閱讀  (共15小題，每小題2分，滿分30分)

第一節(jié)：閱讀理解：閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

The relations between man and wife are changing. A majority of working women remain in full charge of their home; they come back at night to the cleaning, washing, and cooking that constitute their second career. But more and more husbands are sharing the burden and willingly taking on chores that their fathers would rejected as unmanly, and as too mysteriously difficult anyway. In such cases, man and wife become equal partners, both working outside, both pushing the vacuum cleaner. Actually, the number of husbands who do help that way is much smaller than the number of those who accept the idea in theory. And when the equal partnership is a fact, it doesn’t always work well. The marriage can be destroyed when the wife is more successful in her profession than her husband in his, particularly when she earns more than he does. Sociologists see in this situation one of the main reasons for the increase in the divorce rate—another reason being the husband’s refusal to help with the housework or the care of the children. A third reason could be the growing awareness of the professional woman that she doesn’t have to remain married if she is too unhappy.

61. What is the housework like in the traditional husband’s eyes?

A. It’s a mysterious job.

B. It’s a little difficult

C. It’s women’s job.

D. It’s only men’s job.

62. The underlined sentence means________________.

A. When man and wife share the housework, man can’t do it well.

B. When man and wife share the housework, women can’t do it well.

C. when man and wife become equal at home, it doesn’t mean a good marriage.

D. when man and wife are equal partners, marriage doesn’t necessarily go well.

63. All of the following statements are true EXCEPT______________.

A. more husbands act in helping housework than those agreeing it without action.

B. more and more husbands are helping their wives to do housework.

C. most of the working women take charge of their house.

D. it is possible for the marriage to fail if women earn more money than husbands.

64. What may be the reason for the divorce according to the sociologist?

A. The wife refuses to look after the child.

B. The wife is more successful than her husband.

C. The wife is aware of her unhappiness in marriage.

D. Both A and B.

65. The best title of the passage is most likely to be___________.

A. Equal Partnership Means Nothing in Modern Family.

B. The Changing Relations between Man and Wife.

C. Reasons for Increasing Divorce.

D. The Relations between Husband and Wife.

Directions： Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage.

Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.

The contemporary environmental movement is often said to have begun with the publication of Silent Spring by the zoologist and biologist Rachel Carson (1907–1964). This landmark work, which took Carson 4 years to complete, diligently detailed the relationship between animal death  and the use— now understood as the abuse—of man-made chemicals used as pesticides, especially DDT. One of the claims of the book that she tried to demonstrate was that DDT had the effect of softening the eggshells of birds as well as interfering with their reproduction, and that such effects would lead to their extinction if use of DDT were to continue. It would eventually create a springtime of silence when the songs of birds would not be heard. Her studies also found DDT to be a cause of human cancers.

Born in Springdale, Pennsylvania, Carson graduated from the Pennsylvania College for Women in Pittsburgh (now Chatham College), where she majored in English until her junior year, when a course in biology inspired her to switch to zoology as her field of concentration. She earned a master’s degree in this area from Johns Hopkins University and became a biologist at the Bureau of Fisheries in 1936. During this time, she wrote for various national magazines, and her first book, Under the Sea-Wind, was published. Carson had concerns as early as 1945 about pesticides being used more and more by the government. But her cautionary claims in Silent Spring were met with anger by the pesticide and chemical industries. Her authority as a scientist were challenged, and it was held that her findings were just the roars of a hysterical(歇斯底里的) woman. She was even accused of being a member of the Communist Party. Some go so far as to say that she told a lie .

But She is often celebrated as the founder of the contemporary U.S. environmental movement. Yet her work in Silent Spring, warning about the misuse of pesticides and other chemicals, has not as yet taken firm hold. Americans likely use twice as much the volume of pesticides that they did at the time she published her seminal work, and globally, their use is ever increasing. Powerful pesticides are sold over the counter, and their use is so widespread that many environmentalists are fearful that chemical runoff into streams and rivers is still popullting the animals that humans eat and the water that they drink.

In short, while the main purpose of Silent Spring was to warn the public of the dangers of the overuse of pesticides and chemicals, nonetheless the public hasn’t refused such use. Isn't it time that we firmly said no to pesticides?
