Gao Xiaosong was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His grandfather was headmaster of the famous Tsinghua University. His wife’s father graduated from the Imperial College London and founded Shenzhen University. He basically grew up on Tsinghua's campus, and studied in the top schools in China, before he, unsurprisingly, entered Tsinghua's electronic engineering department, one of the school's best majors.

He wrote On the Same Page as You are at age 24. Almost overnight, every young person knew the song by heart. That tune and his later works made him a household name in the country. He later became a judge on the hot variety show (综艺节目) China's Got Talent. 

Everything has gone right for him aside from one major bump in the road—he was arrested for drunken driving in 2011, after he left the first press conference for his film, My Kingdom.

"For me, the six months was not only a result of the trial but also an atonement,(赎罪)" he says. "Six months is like a leaf falling from the tree of life—no big deal. I was a spoiled person in many ways before 40. So, maybe it was an opportunity to pay for my wildness and arrogance(傲慢) in my youth." The hardest thing for him in prison wasn't sleeping between a thief and a bad man but missing his daughter's development from ages 3.5–4.

Gao has become even busier after getting out of prison for drunken driving. A tour concert of his songs is going around the country, while Morning Talk airs weekly. He is searching for new vocal talent for a music company, and his next film is in progress. But he knows clearly what he wants from life—he plans to focus on music until he turns 60, after which he'll focus on writing and film directing. "You can never write pop music at 60," he says. "I don't complain about that. But you can always write a good book or direct a good film, no matter how old you are."

1.What caused him to become well-known to every family in China? 

(No more than 7 words)                                                  (3 marks)

___________________________________________________

2.What did he find it the most difficult to do when he was in prison?

(No more than 11 words)                                                 (2 marks)

___________________________________________________

3.When is he going to devote himself to writing and directing films ?

 (No more than 7 words)                                                  (2 marks)

___________________________________________________ 

4.What words can be used to describe Mr. Gao’s character before he was forty?

(No more than 6 words)                                                  (3 marks)

     Wang Lu, 24, one of many students studying abroad who’ll come home for work, majors in business & management studies at Edinburgh’s Napier University. She had planned what to do after graduation in the UK: two years’ work experience at a restaurant and a tour around Europe. But now her plans are up in
the air.
     Following the UK Home Secretary’s meeting on reform of the student immigration system, the UK
government recently announced the end of the post-study work visa from April 2012. This will force tens
of thousands of Chinese students to leave the UK after graduation.
     Sadly, the domestic(国内的)job market doesn’t welcome them with open arms. A report by
Tigtag.com at the end of 2011 showed that over 35 percent of students admitted that they have
employment problems.
     "Returning students often have fluent English, creative minds and a serious attitude toward work,"said
Zhang Tingwen, an HR expert in ChinaHR.com. “But lack of work experience is a big problem.” Xia Lei, an HR manager, responded to Zhang. “We need people who can work for us. We don’t need people
from big name universities to attract customers”.
     Difference in work practices is another problem that worries employers, Zhang pointed out. “Some
returning students might be used to Western ways of dealing with people and things.”
     Huang Shanshan, 25, got a job in a communication company in Shenzhen.“I once worked part-time in UK. My colleagues ate snacks when they felt hungry, even during working time or in meetings.” Huang
brought some cakes to the office and ate them. When her manager saw that, he told her not to eat at
workplace. “It took me some time to adjust to company rules in China,” said Huang.
1. Why is Wang Lu forced to leave the UK after graduation?
A. Because post-study work visa will come to an end.
B. Because she has no effective ways to learn English.
C. Because there are no majors that suit her in Britain.
D. Because different work practices worry employers.
2. From Xia Lei, we can learn that _______.
A. the domestic job market gives welcome to returnees with open arms
B. employers prefer people who can work to those from top universities
C. returnees are used to Western ways to deal with people and things around
D. it is hard for returning students with creative minds to take work seriously
3. It can be inferred from the text that _______.
A. the reform of immigration system has great effects on the British people
B. some practices like eating snacks are allowed at the workplace in China
C. lack of work experience is a big problem to find a suitable job in the UK
D. returning students are expected to adapt to the new working environment
4. Where can we most probably read this text?
A. In a science fiction.
B. In a travel magazine.
C. In a newspaper.
D. In a student’s book.
