12.Do you like going to a theater to watch live performances?If you do,I'm not alone.
Live performances at theaters interest different groups of people from rich people to office workers.If you go to any theater and look at its audience,you will find it is made up of teenagers,the elderly and anyone in between.One part of it is due to the marketing and the show itself.For example,Hair isn't going to interest the same audience as My Fair Lady.Another part of it is due to the area in which you live.The Palace Theater in Manchester,for example,interests a more urban (城市的)crowd than the Leddy Center in Epping.All of these people have an interest in the magic of live performances and they go to the theater for different reasons.
There is nothing better than live theatre performances to increase your cultural awareness (意识) When you go to see a live theater performance,no matter whether it is a musical or a play,you are improving your knowledge of the world around you.Some people go to the theater to have fun and escape their troubles; others,particularly rich people,go to the theater to develop their knowledge of the world around them.Both of them are very good reasons for going to see live theater performances.However,personally,I often go to the theater more to have fun than anything else.
Everyone has the right to enjoy any performance,whether it's a world-famous performance by the New Hampshire Ballet or a second-rate performance by your local community theater.The main thing to remember is whether you are there to heighten your awareness of the culture or to get away from your problems.You should appreciate the performance for what it is,because too many people these days don't know enough about the arts.

29.What does the author mean by saying she is not alone?D
A.She no longer feels lonely.
B.She loves watching popular performances.
C.She often visits a theater with a friend.
D.She likes going to the theater.
30.The example of Hair and My Fair Lady shows thatD.
A.many shows have a lot in common  
B.some shows are better than others
C.not all shows are attractive to the audience  
D.different shows interest different people
31.According to the author,going to the theater is helpful because of the following reasons EXCEPTA.
A.improving the ability to read others'feelings
B.being a way of learning something  
C.being a way of entertainment
D.improving people's understanding of their own or other cultures.

3.Every day we go to school and listen to the teacher,and the teacher will ask us some  questions.Sometimes,the classmates will ask for your opinions of the work of the class.When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics,remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying.You are not taking part in a family conversation or  having a chat with friends-you are in a slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remain silent,waiting to hear what you have to say.You must speak so that they can hear you-loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.Remember,too,that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you.The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease (not worried) but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation.You must take special care that you can be heard.

7.One should be moderate in all things.Moderation is always the safest way to do things,and a virtue we should have.Let's take the student life for example.There are some students who study too hard and play too little,while there are others who play too much and study too little.On the one hand,it is harmful to his health if he has too few physical exercises,and on the other hand,it is harmful to his mind if he plays too much.
    In the matter of eating,one also should be moderate.Do not eat too much or too little.Eating too much will make you sick,while eating too little will make you week.
The man of progress is he who neither has too high opinion of himself nor thinks too poorly of himself.If he thinks too highly of himself,he is surely to become very proud,but if he has too poor an opinion of himself,he will have no courage to make an advance.Both conditions above will make you lose your aim in life.A broadminded man is he who always moves within the orbit of reasonableness.In any activities in one's life,moderation is one of the best ways to enjoy real happiness

4.The most famous animal said to be capable of counting was a horse in Germany at the beginning of the 19th century called Clever Hans.The horse's owner(41)Athat animals could think and reason as we can and that this(42)Dcould come from training them.He trained Clever Hans to give the(43)Cto arithmetic (算术的) problems; the horse gave the correct answer by(44)Bthe right number of times with its forefoot.The animal gave the correct answers not only to additions but to other arithmetic,too.It also gave the right answers when the questions were shown to it on a card.

This biologist soon discovered that the horse had actually(55)Ato very slight unconscious movements of head or body made by a questioner who knew the(56)Bnumber of taps.He counted the taps to himself,and when the horse got to the right number,the questioner's tension was(57)Dby a small,unconscious movement of his head or body.The horse then(58)Ctapping.Questioners who didn't know the answer didn't do this.The horse had really(59)Bitself to answer these very small(60)Dduring its training.
