Betty is not traditional American beauty. She is unfashionable, has thick red glasses, untidy hair and large metal braces (牙套) on her teeth. But this hasn’t stopped her from becoming one of American’s favorite TV characters. So how did she manage to do it?
The answer is that charm can be more attractive than beauty. Betty is the main character in a TV show Ugly Betty. The show is about her life as an office worker at a fashion magazine in New York.
The TV show has just started. Betty has many exciting experiences and romantic stories. Betty is often looked down on and laughed at by the people around. But she manages to do better than others with her hard work, charm and wisdom. The show tells us about how a girl goes from an ugly young duck into a beautiful swan.
Though you may know the ending of the show from the beginning and the story is familiar to many of us, it has still been a big success in the USA. It has attracted a large number of viewers and won two Golden Globes awards, one of the highest honors for a television program in the USA. “I think you can see a bit of Betty in all of us, and I mean men as well, because it’s about the underdog (弱者)”, says Ashley Jensen, who plays one of the characters on the show.
The program is so popular because of the performance of the 23-year-old actress America Ferrera who plays the role of Betty. She brings the character alive on the screen.

A．her clothesB．her charm C．her personalityD．her appearance

小题1:B
小题2:D
小题3:C
小题4:B
小题5:A

试题分析：短文大意：贝蒂不是传统的美国丽人。她是不合时宜的，有厚厚的红色眼镜，不整洁的头发和大的金属牙套。但这并不妨碍她成为美国的一个最喜爱的电视角色。那么她是如何做到的？答案是，魅力可比美貌更有吸引力。
小题1:细节理解题。根据第二段第一句The answer is that charm can be more attractive than beauty.可知贝蒂很受欢迎，是因为她的人格魅力，所以选B。
小题2:词义猜测题。根据前句Though you may know the ending of the show from the beginning and the story is familiar to many of us,可推知it指代上文说到的the show ，所以选D。
小题3:细节理解题。根据最后一段首句The program is so popular because of the performance of the 23-year-old actress America Ferrera who plays the role of Betty. 可知选C。
小题4:推理判断题。读短文可知贝蒂是一个有智慧的女孩，贝蒂是美国人最喜爱的电视角，周围的人经常看不起贝蒂，所以选B。
小题5:标题归纳题。根据节目讲述一个女孩由一个丑陋的小鸭子变成美丽的天鹅，可知本文意在说明美来自内心，而不在于外表，所以选A。

Dear mom,
I’m writing to you from America. You don’t know how happy I am. I made many new friends here. They are very helpful. Last week I got a fever and had to stay in bed for three days. They helped me a lot with my lessons. Cathy is one of my good friends at school. She has a round face with a pair of glasses. She is two months older than I am, but a little shorter . She works hard and is good at all her lessons. She often helps me with my English. We like talking to each other at lunchtime. After school, we always go home together because we live in the same street.
Sometimes we take a dancing lesson for half an hour before we go home. She dances better than any other student. She wants to be a dancer when she grows up. At the weekends, Cathy usually goes swimming. I sometimes go swimming with her. I think it’s a good way to keep healthy. We always have a good time.
Write soon.
Love

It was near Christmas during my first term teaching at a new school. I loved my small special class more than any group I had taught in the past. They were hungry for knowledge and I was enjoying teaching.
Other teachers had told me that our children were from poor families and not to expect any child to bring a Christmas gift. In fact, I wasn’t expecting any gifts.
Imagine my surprise when every child brought me a gift on the day before our holiday break. First, I got a much-loved toy monkey from a shy girl. I was told, “He is my favorite, but I love you and I want him to be with you, Miss Taylor.” How thrilled I was!
Next came a new set of Christmas tree lights that was “missing” from a mother’s cupboard(碗橱).
Finally, I came to one little boy’s gift which I had never received. It was an old, dirty and broken Christmas storybook. Just when I wanted to show my happiness, I was interrupted(打断) by the giver, “And see, it is new! It still has the price tag（标签）.”
When other children laughed at him, I stopped them and said, “Oh, books are good in that way. The story is always new if you have not read it before. Now, Let’s read one together.” Everyone listened quietly as I read the most wonderful Christmas story of my life.
I still keep those Christmas gifts. They always remind me of my lovely kids.
