Getting paid to talk about the World Cup is a great job. I’m not a football commentator(評論員),though-just an English teacher in Japan.
I came to Japan two years ago, and didn't think I would stay, but Japan has that effect on you. People often end up living here longer than they planned. I think it’s best to teach in a biggest city where there are other foreigners to mix with, rather than a small town where English teachers often complain of feeling like a goldfish in a bowl. Many people choose to live in Tokyo, of course, which is good for the nightlife factor. But I’d say that for general quality of living, cities of neither too large nor too small, like Sapporo where I live, are better choices.
I teach English privately, which means I’m my own boss. If you want to devote yourself to private teaching, it’s well worth doing a TEFL course first, because your lessons will be much better for it. The problem with private teaching is finding students; it took me a year to build up a full schedule(日程表)of private lessons, so I started out teaching in schools part-time.
Most of my foreign friends here work full-time for big English conversation schools. The salary is fine to live on. But whether you can save money depends on how much going out and traveling you do here.
The schools are reluctant to take time off –even teachers with tickets for the England-Argentina game had trouble getting the day off.
56.From the passage we know in Japan the write likes to live in_______.
A.Tokyo B.a small town C.a city of middle site D.a big city
57.According to the writer, one had better________first to do private teaching better.
A.take a TEFL course B.decide his or her own lessons
C.find students D.build up a full schedule
58.The underlined sentence in the second paragraph implies that_______.
A.there are many foreigners in Japan B.Japan is good for nightlife
C.they can teach English privately in Japan
D.Japan has something more attractive than expected
59.The underlined word“reluctant”in the passage may probably mean_____.
A.kind B.unwilling C.free D.careless

Section A (10 points)
Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage. WRITE NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.
Many students eat their breakfasts on the way to school or in the dinning-room. But some of them don’t really know how to eat well when eating out.
Here is some important advice. The first is to eat less fast food. The most obvious harm of eating too much fast food is weight gaining because of too much fat. Young people and adults are at risk of diseases related to weight.
Too much fast food can drag your body down. French fries, for example, were recently found to contain much more acryl amide(丙烯酰胺) than other food. This may cause cancer. Actually, deep fried food all contains acryl amide. So don’t eat it too often.
Soda is another thing you should watch out for. Cokes and other sodas contain a lot of sugar and can slow down a person’s calcium absorption, so it’s best to drink as little soda as possible.
Food in the dinning-room may not be as tasty as fast food, but it’s actually easier to make healthy choices. Human bodies need variety. You can have a meal that balances lean proteins, vitamins and complex carbohydrates(碳水化合物). In other words, a meal with fish or meat, vegetables and some bread or rice will provide you with most nutrients that the body needs.
Some snacks, on the other hand, will help keep you going until your next big meal. It is natural for teenagers, especially boys, to feel hungry during school time. Don’t forget to take some foods, like whole-grain biscuits or low-fat milk in your school bag.

Scientists say they now have proof to support the old-fashioned advice that it’s best to sleep on a problem.They say sleep strengthens the memory and helps the brain organize the masses of information we receive each day.
The lead researcher Bob Stickgold at the Harvard Medical School said, “Sleep helps us draw rules from our experiences.It’s like knowing the difference between dogs and cats even if it’s hard to explain.”
The US research team studied how well students remembered connections between words and symbols, reports New Scientist.They compared how the students performed if they had had a sleep between seeing the words and having the test, and if they had not slept.They found that people were better able to remember lists of related words after a night’s sleep than after the same time spent awake during the day.They also found it easier to remember themes that the words had in common.But they forgot around one in four more themes if they had been awake.
Prof.John Groeger, of Survey University’s Sleep Research Centre, said, “People have been trying for years to find out what the purpose of sleep is, as we know that only certain parts of it have a restorative (促使康復(fù)的)value.”
“We form and store huge numbers of experiences in the head every day, and sleep seems to be the way the brain deals with them all.”
【小題1】The phrase “to sleep on a problem” in Paragraph 1 most likely means “________”.
A.to pay full attention to a problem |
B.to wait until the next day for a decision |
C.to sleep to forget a problem |
D.to have difficulty in sleeping |
A.put together words of similar meanings |
B.remember words and their meanings |
C.show their knowledge of words |
D.make up lists of related words |
A.Themes learned right before the test. |
B.Rules from personal experiences. |
C.Words learned before a good sleep. |
D.Ideas stored together in the brain. |
A.It shows that sleep may help us manage information. |
B.It helps find out the common themes of words. |
C.It tells us that more sleep can improve health. |
D.It proves the value of old-fashioned advice. |

It is common to have difficulties sleeping during the day. Humans are naturally wired to sleep best at night and be awake during the day. However, modern work schedules require some people to try to accommodate the unnatural schedule of shift(輪班)work — being awake at night and sleeping during the day.
In order to make this adjustment, you need to pay special attention to your sleep environment and your preparation for sleep. If shift work is a necessary part of your work life, here are some suggestions that may help.
Arrange to sleep uninterrupted in a quiet, dark room. This means you may have to turn off or unplug your phone, hang darkening curtains on the windows or wear a sleep eye mask, and train your family and friends to leave you alone while you sleep.
Fit in a nap(小睡). When your daytime sleep period is too short, taking a short nap of less than 30 minutes just before work or on a break has been shown to improve alertness and enhance performance.
Develop and follow a sleep routine. It's best if you go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day. Try not to vary this too much on weekends. Your body likes routine.
Take extra care to make healthy choices. You may be tempted to reach for unhealthy foods or nicotine to stay awake or alcohol to try to sleep. But ultimately these choices are more harmful than helpful.
If you have tried all these things and are still having problems getting enough quality sleep during the day, talk to your doctor or a sleep specialist. Sometimes medications(藥物治療)may be helpful and safe. In other cases, there may be an underlying sleep disorder that needs to be addressed.

Due to the increasing number of violence acts produced in schools all over the world,more and more parents prefer to have their children educated at home rather than at school. This way they can assure their safety and well-being,although teachers and school representatives are trying to improve the situation in schools by increasing the number of the persons in charge with the safety of the students.
The main reason for violence acts are the films and cartoons that fill the children’s time.They want to do everything.they watch on TV and never think at the consequences,and they may hurt a classmate or a teacher.
On the other hand, parents are not fully satisfied with the children’s results obtained in classes and they consider private classes would have better results.
When a teacher has to watch 30 students in class he can’t probably see what each of them is doing,how he is writing,or if he understands the explanations.At home the teacher can explain in details everything the child doesn’t understand as many times as he considers proper.
And many times.the child grows fond of the teacher at home,who becomes his best friend,and who helps him whenever he needs someone to talk to.
However, the best solution would be a mixture between the education received at school and that at home,because school makes children communicate and socialize.Keeping a child at home for fear there might happen something bad to him.only makes the child’s character weak and prevents him from knowing what real life is.Staying in a crystal ball only does harm to the child.
All in all.schools have been created to help children,not to harm them,so it’s best to keep children in these special places,where they learn,laugh,have fun and make new friends.
