Dear Jim，

So glad that you are interested in my new flat. Now I would like tell you something about it. Lie in the north of the city, this Residential Center is small with only six building. My flat, which covers the area of 36 square meters, is in the fourth floor in Building 2. It was made up of a sitting room, a bedroom, a kitchen and a toilet.

When you enter into the flat, you will find yourself in the sitting room. The sitting room is the part that I like best, because it is brightly with a lovely balcony（阳台）, which I can enjoy the beautiful garden below. Although my flat is small, I like them very much because it is comfortable.

Best regards,

Yours

There are two main types of non?verbal communication. Body language is the first. Body language is body movements that depend on a person’s attitude or feelings. Body language includes the way people walk，how they stand，and their facial features. In other words，any kind of meaning is shown by a person’s attitude or body movements. For example，when a boy is sad he may drop his head and walk slowly. Or，if a girl is happy，she might run and jump or stand up straight and put her hands in the air. People don’t have to say anything to show how they feel about things. The colour of people’s skin may even show how they feel. For example，if people with light coloured skin get embarrassed，their skin may turn red，or if they are worried，they might get pale. Body language can be voluntary(主动的) or involuntary(无意识的)．An interesting fact is that blind children will smile when happy even though they have never seen a smile.

The next main type of non?verbal communication is gestures. Gestures are communications like facial expressions，hand signals，eye gazing，and body postures. Examples include smiles，handshakes，waving，and raising certain fingers to say something. For instance，if you saw a friend at a noisy carnival，you might smile and wave at your friend. You might also point at the Ferris wheel if you wanted to meet your friend there. You could do all of these things without saying a word. Another great example is in baseball when the catcher signals to the pitcher the kind of pitch to use for the batter that is up.

1.If a boy passes the final exam he ________.

A．might not raise his head

B．might walk home slowly

C．might run home singing

D．might not stand there straight

2.When someone gets pale he is most likely to be ______.

A．anxious B．surprised

C．embarrassed D．disappointed

3.Which one of the following is WRONG according to this passage?

A．Body language is mainly expressed by one’s body movements.

B．The blind children can also smile when they are glad.

C．You can also express yourself without saying a word in baseball.

D．Gestures can be shown only by one’s hands.

4.All the following are gestures except ________.

A．hand signals B．coloured skin

C．hand wave D．eye gazing

When I was in college,I was always very passionate(热情的)about music and I was proud to be a member of our band.However,I almost gave up because of my fear of playing solos(独奏).

One day two years ago my director informed me that he wanted me to be the featured soloist in a piece of music.Of course I was terrified,but he encouraged me that everything would be OK,and that he believed me and knew that I could do it.Up until four days before the concert,I could not make it through the solo.I would always seem to get discouraged before I played it.

I decided to ask my director for help thinking that he would tell me that I didn’t have to do it and that he was still proud of me.All he said was“You just have to believe yourself.”I didn’t think trying his advice would hurt,so I started the next morning differently.Instead of wondering how I could mess up,I imagined myself playing through my solo with confidence and I kept on telling myself that I could do it.

The strange thing was...it worked!After that day I played the solo without any mistake.When the big concert came,although I was a little nervous,I knew that I could do this.I didn’t know what was going to happen,but I realized that the only person that was holding me back from being my best,was myself.I believed myself.I thought things would go a little more differently than they had in the past.Of course,I played the solo wonderfully and I gained acclamation from all the audience.

The kids in this village wear dirty,ragged clothes.They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud.They have no school.Yet they all can chant the English alphabet,and some can make words.

The key to their success:20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S.group called One Laptop Per Child.

The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist.The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed.“What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,”said Matt Keller,who runs the Ethiopia program.

The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse.The device’s camera was disabled to save memory,yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work.He called himself a lion,a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.

With his tablet,Kelbesa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows.Then he spelled words on his own.“Seven months ago he didn’t know any English.That’s unbelievable,”said Keller.

The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,”where they can read to learn.It won’t be in Amharic,Ethiopia’s first language,but in English,which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.

1.How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?

A.It trains teachers for them.

B.It contributes to their self-study.

C.It helps raise their living standards.

D.It provides funds for building schools.

2.What can we infer from Keller’s words in Paragraph 3?

A.They need more time to analyze data.

B.More children are needed for the research.

C.He is confident about the future of the project.

D.The research should be carried out in kindergartens.

3.It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could .

A.learn English words quickly

B.draw pictures of animals

C.write letters to researchers

D.make phone calls to his friends

4.What is the aim of the project?

A.To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.

B.To make Amharic widely used in the world.

C.To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.

D.To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.

Dear Tracy，

Although I'm 16 years old，but my father still treats me as a careless children. He doesn’t value my opinions .He is very strict with me and often punishes me about leaving things lying around in the house while he did this all time. I think he fails to set an example to me to follow. But he often say：“Do as I say，not as I doing.” Even worse，he points out my past mistakes to our guests, making me feel hurting. I love my father, but I can’t bear what he does. I have been tried many times to talk with he, but he never listens. Please help me.
