13．I always avoid going on field investigations with the toxics team，unless it's absolutely necessary．it's not that I mind the hardwork，or am afraid of coming into contact with poisonous substances．What I definitely fear is quickly losing hope about the work I do．
Doing field  research with the toxics team，all  I see and feel  is filth-nothing else  Even  if I close my eyes，I can smell the smell of food processing  rotting organic waste from paper mills and chemicals from clothing manufacturers．
One morning，I went to investigate a discharged pipe to document and collect samples of pollutants secretly being emitted by a textile mill．I had to work with the utmost secrecy in order to avoid being discovered by the textile mill．
I dipped a long measuring pole into the large polluting pipe to measure the volume of polluted water being emitted．But the surface of the water，covered in oil and filth，made me feel as if to vomit．
All of a sudden，I felt someone hit me on my back．It frightened me so much that I almost fell into the water．I grasped the pole and looked behind me to see an old  man standing there．kept calm and said："Yes，l heard that there's a kind of small fish living in this water，and it has medicinal  benefits．"
The old man grew quite curious and replied："That may be lf a fish can survive in water as dirty as this，it must have a lot of resistance．So it wouldn't be too strange if such fish had medicinal benefits．"
It was clear that he was just passing by，so I answered："Yeah，survival of the fittest．Fish that adapt can survive，just like us humans．"
He kept talking to me and didn't want to leave．He wanted to see whether or not I would catch the small fish with medicinal benefits．

20．As an English teacher，one of the most common problems I've found with my students is their lack of confidence with speaking，and difficulty in understanding native speakers．Another problem could be that a foreign language taught in schools can sound quite different to what native speakers actually use．
There are a few English words and expressions that I'd never heard until I came to China．The most common one in my experience is"How are you？I'm fine，thank you，and you？"
I appreciate that although this greeting is much too formal for everyday use-it's easy to learn and helps build confidence．However，it can be a hard habit to break．I've seen many parents correct their kids if they don't use that exact phrase，as if simply replying"I'm fine"would somehow be rude．In fact I'm banning my students from saying that in the classroom，insisting a simple"I'm fine，thanks"is good enough．
"Seldom"is another one that I find interesting．The first time a student told me"I seldom watch TV"，my initial reaction was a stupefied look，followed by"Huh？"I then realized the student used"seldom"when it's more common for us to use"rarely．"
I was just as confused when I first heard a toilet referred to as a WC （water closet），another English term I'd never heard of back in Australia．Of course，my students know the other names for it like bathroom，toilet，washroom etc．so to prefer that name is an interesting choice．
I don't mind that my students have substituted familiar English words with their own，far from it．It reminds me how creative they can be with not only their language，but with mine as well．It's healthy for English to evolve （进化） and change and I'm happy to add these new words to my vocabulary．
One important lesson I've learnt is that textbooks can only help you so much．For further improvement you'd better practice with native speakers．
61．What does the article mainly tell about？C
A．Learning English needs confidence．
B．Native speakers are hard to understand．
C．Chinese-English has something different．
D．Chinese students are more creative．
62．The problem with the reply"I'm fine，thank you，and you？"is that it isB．
A．too long to remember                 B．not popular with native speakers
C．sometimes misunderstood              D．considered impolite by native speakers
63．The writer mentioned parents correcting their kids to show that in ChinaB．
A．speaking English at home has become a habit
B．the exact reply has been trained into a habit
C．some parents are not qualified to teach English
D．children don't always obey their teachers
64．It's possible for us to hear an Australian say"WeDuse the term‘D'for a toilet．"
A．seldom；  bathroom                    B．rarely；  washroom
C．seldom；  WC                      D．rarely；  WC
65．What is the writer's attitude towards his students using Chinese-English？A
A．He's tolerant
B．He's angry．
C．He feels uncomfortable
D．He pays no attention．
17．       this chocolate and you will find it delicious．（　　）
A．TryB．To tryC．TryingD．Tried
18．The hat doesn't match any of my clothes，please show me      ．（　　）
A．the otherB．otherC．anotherD．others
