When I first came to China, there were many things I do not understand. Now, I have a better understanding of Chinese culture and find it very interested.

Bargaining is a Chinese custom what amazes me. In the USA, prices are set and you cannot ask for a lower price, when in China, you are expected to bargain with the salespersons in some small stores and tourist spots. I once asked my Chinese friends to teach me how to bargain. They were told me that I should ask for 40 percent or 50 percent off the price. Then, they had better tell the salesperson that the same item is cheaper at another store. If the salesperson does not agree to my price, I should pretend leave and he might ask me to come back and sell me the item for a lower price. But this skill doesn’t work effective every time. In my opinion, bargaining are a skill that I have to practise if I continue to live in China.

This is a unforgettable experience for me, which is beneficial to me.

Liverpool, my hometown, is a special city. It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World Heritage（遗产）Site.

I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey. Blanketed in mist（薄雾），Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the sounds of sea-birds, and appeared unbelievably charming. When I headed toward the centre, I found myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe. It is not hard to imagine why, on first seeing the city, most visitors would be overpowered by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are solid signs of Liverpool’s history.

As if to stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries than most cities in Britain. At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has the best collections of Victorian paintings in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England. However, culture is more than galleries. Liverpool offers many music events. As Britain’s No. 1 music city, it has the biggest city music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world. Liverpool is also well-known for its football and other sports events. Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors, making the city a place of wonder.

As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from around the world. When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool’s famous Philharmonic pub（酒馆）. It is a monument to perfection, and a heritage attraction itself.

Being a World Heritage Site, my home city is certainly a place of “outstanding universal value”. It is a treasure house with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.

1.Visitors who see the city for the first time would be deeply impressed by__________.

A. its charming banks B. its famous museums

C. its wonderful palaces D. its attractive buildings

2.Liverpool has important cultural role because __________.

A. it has the best collections of Victorian paintings

C. a pub is a wonderful place for visitors to relax themselves

D. a pub is a perfect choice for visitors to complete their journey

Are billionaires good with exams as well as their money? Or are they more likely to have escaped school at the first opportunity and worked their way up to make their fortunes?

A study of the educational background of some of the world’s wealthiest people shows that they are much more likely to have gone to university, and they are more likely to have a postgraduate degree(硕士或博士研究生学位) than no degree at all.

It doesn’t give much support for the image of self-taught entrepreneurs (企业家), who rely on their own wisdom rather than higher education.

The study, by insurance company GoCompare, examined the educational background of people appearing in the top 1 00 billionaire lists by Forbes magazine over the past 20 years.

It shows that 76 percent of these billionaires have a degree. Forty-seven percent of them have a bachelor’s (学士) degree, 23 percent a master’s (文/理科硕士) degree and 6 percent a doctorate(博士学位). The most popular subjects were the ones related to economics and engineering. There were many more studying sciences than arts.

The school attended by the global super rich are also much more likely to be world-class universities, rather than local ones. Harvard University is the single most likely name to be found on the resume(履历) of a billionaire, though one of the most famous names on the rich list, Bill Gates, dropped out of Harvard before finishing.

Stanford University in California and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have become the launchpads for a rising number of tech billionaires. Google’s co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin were both postgraduates at Stanford. Borthers Charles and David Koch, who are among the world’s biggest oil tycoons, both got their bachelor’s and master’s degrees from MIT.

Among U.K. universities, the London School of Economics and Political Science and the University of Cambridge have the most multi-billionaires on the Forbes list, while Oxford has produced Rupert Murdoch.

1.The study has found all of the following EXCEPT .

A. most billionaires are not self-taught geniuses

B. billionaires are much more likely to have received higher education

C. nearly half of those on Forbes’ top 100 billionaire lists have a bachelor’s degree

D. there are more billionaires without degree at all than those with a master’s degree

2.Of the following subjects, what is the most likely to have been a college major of a billionaire?

A. Computer science. B. Art history.

C. English literature. D. Law.

3.What does the underlined word “launchpads” in Paragraph 7 mean?

A. Favorite places of famous people.

B. Effective starting points for a career.

C. Places on the Internet that help you find information.

D. Places where rockets and other spacecraft are sent into space.

4.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?

A. The study was carried out by Forbes magazine.

B. A high percentage of the world’s richest people have a doctorate.

C. Rupert Murdoch went to the London School of Economics and Political Science.

D. Harvard University has produced more billionaires on the Forbes list than any other university.

It’s easy to observe an athlete like Tiger Woods and feel like he’s from another planet. He has won 14 major tournament(锦标赛) titles and about $122 million in prize money and ads. He also has a happy family. It seems that he is too perfect to be one of us. But Woods has more in common with you than you might think.

Woods’ parents — particularly his father — set high expectations for him when he was a child. Before Earl Woods’ death in 2006, he told Golf magazine, “My purpose in raising Tiger was not to raise a golfer. I wanted to raise a good person.”

By age two, Woods was already swinging(挥舞) a golf club. But once he entered school, Woods’ father was careful to send the message that school work came first. Woods wasn’t allowed to practice until his homework was done.

When Woods finally reached the professional tour, his father continued to expect a lot of him. “Tiger will do more than any other man in history to change the course of human. The world is just getting a taste of his power,” he said in 1996. Clearly, Earl Woods had great expectations of his son.

In this way, Tiger Woods is actually like a lot of us. Many of us feel a similar pressure to make our parents proud. When this happens, it’s easy to let that pressure overwhelm(压倒) us.

In a perfect world, we would all grow up to be Tiger Woods-like successes in our own fields. But that isn’t possible. There are many things that we can’t control in this life, despite our best efforts.

There is, however, one thing that we can do: we can try to be a “good person”, as Earl Woods asked his son to do.

1.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the first paragraph?

A. The number of tournament titles Tiger Woods has won.

B. The family members of Tiger Woods.

C. The money Tiger Woods has made in prize money and ads.

D. The impression that Tiger Woods leaves on us.

2.According to the passage, which of the following statements about Tiger Woods is TRUE?

A. Tiger Woods is too perfect to be one of us.

B. Tiger Woods wasn’t allowed to play golf after class.

C. Tiger Woods did very well in golf as a child.

D. Tiger Woods didn’t like playing golf when he was a child.

3.We can learn from the passage that Tiger Woods is under pressure to ____ just like many of us.

A. get high marks in the exam B. make his parents proud

C. change the course of human D. try to be a good person

4.We can infer from the passage that ______.

A. Tiger Woods has a happy family

B. Tiger Woods’ mother didn’t set high expectations for him

C. Tiger Woods has changed the course of human

D. Tiger Woods’ father plays an important role on his road to success

One day two young men are walking in a big forest. One is fat , and the other is thin.” We are good friends. We must help each other. If we meet any beast(野兽), I’ll help you,” the thin man says. “I’ll help you, too,” the fat one says. They walk on. After a while they hear a great noise. It is a big bear. It is coming this way.

The two young men run away quickly. One of them climbs up a tree, and hides among the leaves. He forgets all about his friend. What about the fat one? He is too fat to climb up a tree. So he throws himself on the ground, closes his eyes, and pretends（假装） to be dead. “ The bear will think I’m dead,” he thinks to himself.

Soon the bear comes up to the fat man, and even puts its nose to his mouth and ears. The fat man holds his breath.

The bear thinks he is dead, so it goes away, because bears never touch the dead. The man in the tree comes down. With a smile he asks his friend, “ The bear puts its nose so close to your ears. What does it say to you?”

The friend answers, “ The bear says, ‘ Don’t trust your friend. He runs away from you when you need his help most.”
