【題目】I wish there would be a way to describe China in simple terms but that’s impossible. For the most part, Chinese people are friendly, easy-going and optimistic. They are curious and unusually patient and they are also the hardest-working people I have ever met.

In China, family is everything. In my English classes when the students were asked what they would do if they only had a few hours to live, most students told me how they would spend their last few hours with their families and parents. Many times the subjects in the classes center on families and friends. I teach many students a year, talking to them freely.

The cost of living here is very low compared with that of the US. The city of Xiang Fan I live in isn’t large and I live better. Non-imported(非出口的) foods are very cheap, so are clothing and articles of everyday use. The cost of public transportation is very low, too. Chinese value education. However, it is reported that many children can’t afford the expenses of schooling and are forced to leave school in some poor areas in China. But they organized Project Hope many years ago. It creates conditions for the poor children to go back to school. In my opinion, Project Hope is of great importance to the development of the rural education.

When we read news of China in the west, rarely, if ever, will we see anything mentioned of the positive changes China has gone through. While it is true that economic miracles have not reached many areas of China, but we also have the same problems.

When I am asked which country I consider better. China or the US, my answer has always been the same, “We are not worse or better than each other, we are only different.”

【1】 How does the author find Chinese people ?

A．He thinks most Chinese people hardly work.

B．He praises most Chinese people a lot.

C．He thinks most Chinese people are proud.

D．He dislikes most Chinese people.

【2】What are not cheap in China in the author’s opinion?

A．Imported foods

B．Local foods

C．Public transportation tickets.

D．Clothes and shoes made in China.

【3】We can infer from the passage that the author thinks________.

A．the westerners have got to know China well

B．China’s economic miracles have appeared everywhere

C．the education in rural areas is never cared about in China

D．the progress of China is seldom reported in the US

【4】 In the author’ eyes,________.

A．China is better than the US

B．China is different from the US

C．Americans are richer than Chinese

D．China bears great similarities to the US

【答案】

【1】B

【2】A

【3】D

【4】B

試題分析：文章講述了我對(duì)中國(guó)的印象。1.中國(guó)人友好、隨和、樂觀和勤勞；2.中國(guó)人非常重視家庭；3.在中國(guó)生活花錢不多；4.中國(guó)和美國(guó)是不同的發(fā)展模式，不能說哪個(gè)好，哪個(gè)壞。

【1】:B推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第一段中的For the most part, Chinese people are friendly, easy-going and optimistic. They are curious and unusually patient and they are also the hardest-working people I have ever met. 可知，作者談到了許多中國(guó)人的優(yōu)點(diǎn)，這是對(duì)中國(guó)人的贊揚(yáng)。故選B。

【2】A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段中的Non-imported(非出口的) foods are very cheap, 可知，非進(jìn)口的食品便宜，這就意味著進(jìn)口的食品不便宜。故選A。

【3】D推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第四段的When we read news of China in the west, rarely, if ever, will we see anything mentioned of the positive changes China has gone through.可知，很少看到中國(guó)的報(bào)道，如果有也是中國(guó)經(jīng)歷的積極變化。故選D。

【4】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段中的We are not worse or better than each other, we are only different.可知，當(dāng)我被問起中國(guó)和美國(guó)哪個(gè)更好的時(shí)候，我不能說哪個(gè)更好或者更壞，只能說我們是不同的模式。故選B。

【題目】Once upon a time, there was a wonderful old man who loved everything on the land —— animals and plants.

One day while walking through the woods, the old man found a cocoon of a butterfly. He took it home. A few days later, a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther. Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and cut the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then came out easily.

But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, or they would be smaller. Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled （枯萎）wings. It never was able to fly.

What the man in his kindness and hurry did not understand was that the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening was nature’s way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we were allowed to go through our life without any difficulties, it would cripple (無能) us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. And we could never fly.

【1】The old man cut the cocoon in order to ____.

A. kill the butterfly

B. play with the butterfly

C. make the butterfly come out easily

D. have the butterfly

【2】The reason why the butterfly could not fly is that _____.

A. the old man broke its wings

B. it was too small

C. newly born butterflies can’t fly

D. it came out of its cocoon without enough struggle

【3】What can we know from the passage?

A. That old man was fond of everything except the butterfly.

B. It was the old man that stopped the butterfly flying.

C. The old man realized his mistake.

D. It’s not hard for the butterfly to come out of the cocoon.

【4】What does the author want to tell us by writing the passage?

A .We should help others.

B. Without others' help we can still succeed.

C. Struggles in our life can make us stronger.

D. Butterflies can fly without people’s help.

Time flies! This is a third year that I have been in this school. In the past two and a half years, our school had organized many activities. What impressed me best was an activity called “Learning to Farm”. In an autumn afternoon, we were sent to a farm which we learned to plant potatoes. Having been in the city for so a long time, we were so happy to go to the countryside. After divided into 3 groups, we started to work. Some students cut potatoes into pieces; some dug holes, and the others put the pieces into the hole, put the earth back and pushed them down hard. We continued doing that until all the work was done. Although we were exhausted, but we felt fulfilled on our way back home.

●Does failure really exist?

If you believe you have failed, then you have. If you believe you don’t have the ability to succeed, then you don’t. 【1】 The moment you decide to give up or stop working toward your goals, failure is born.

● 【2】

Most people give themselves an out without even realizing it. They are willing to work hard on reaching their goals, but only until the going gets too rough or their energy dies down. Don’t do that! 【3】 Never quit, never admit failure, and never lose heart.

●Don’t believe in a clear finish line for goals.

It’s a good idea to set a general timeline, but remember that something will be beyond your control. 【4】 If you lock yourself into a given timeline, you might make yourself feel like a failure!

●Be sure that you don’t see difficulties as failures.

B. Failure only exists in your own mind!

C. That’s exctly how failure makes us feel.
