My dream is to become a school teacher in the future. In fact, I had the dream of becoming a teacher since my childhood. In my opinion, without teachers, no society could make progresses. There is no doubt whether teachers play an important role in children growth. Not only do teachers pass on knowledge for children, but they also teach children how to behave themselves. Comparing with other jobs, teaching is hard and the pay is lower. And to me, what great fun it is to be with children! They make me to feel young forever because I’ll study harder and try my best to realize my dream.

A group of people from Denmark have formed the B-Society. According to them, human beings are divided into types: A-People, and B-People. A-People have no problem getting up in the morning, and operate much better earlier in the day. However, B-people are better later in the day. “I’m useless early in the morning,” says one of the members of the B-Society.”All I can do is drink coffee, and stare into space. People used to get up early because they had to feed the animals. But I haven’t got any cows or chickens, so I can sleep late,” She adds. Since the society was set up, the B-Society has welcomed several thousand members.

Right now, the B-Society is fighting hard for businesses to join its B-certification (证明) list. Companies that are “B-certified” basically give their employees the opportunity to come in when they want. In some companies, employees arrive at any time up to 3:30 pm --- each to their own rhythm (节奏).

And it is not just businesses that are benefiting from this. Teenagers who can’t get out of bed in the morning, and parents who never quite get the kids to school on time, can now benefit from B-classes. From next year, a school in Copenhagen will offer classes which start later in the day (at 10 instead of eight). And even the government seems to like the idea.

The B-Society was founded by Camilla Kring, a professor from the University of Copenhagen. On her website, she says, “When B-people’s work rhythms are considered at the work place, their productivity (生产力) and quality of life is increased, which can increase productivity for the entire organization.”

She adds that, “B-Society will create a new daily rhythm in schools and other institutions (机构) as an alternative to the current rhythm of ‘early at work and early at home’. We are working for the establishment of kindergartens, primary and secondary schools as well as universities that open between 10 am and 8 pm.”

Would you like to work for a B-certified company?

1. According to the text, who belong to the B-Society?

C. Animal lovers. D. Sleep experts.

2. In B-certified companies, employees can ____.

B. join any other companies

C. work on any days they choose

D. go to work at any time of a day

3.In Camilla Kring’s opinion, B-people _______.

A. are more hard-working than A-people

B. have a better quality of life than A-people

C. are more productive if given more freedom

D. like the rhythm of “early at work, early at home”

4.The author’s purpose in writing this text is to _____.

A. stress the importance of getting up early

B. express his attitude towards the B-Society

C. introduce a group having a special daily rhythm

D. call on people to work for B-certified companies

书面表达，请以My Home Town为话题写一篇100词左右的发言稿。

开头已给出：

Hello, classmates.Today I will introduce my home town.

Being able to count at least ten people as friends makes us happy, but those with five or fewer are likely to be miserable, researchers say. Their study of hundreds of men and women also found t hat people who feel satisfied with their lives always have lots of close friends and regularly make new ones. While it is not clear whether our friends make us happy or we make friends because we are happy, the researchers say it is clear that we should maintain our friendships. Psychologist RichardTunney said, “Whatever the reason is, actively working on friendships in the same way as to maintain a marriage is a prerequisite(必备条件) to happiness. ”Dr. Tunney, of Nottingham University, quizzed more than 1,700 people about their satisfaction with their lives and the state of their friendships. Those with five friends or fewer had just a 40 percent chance of being happy. In other words they were more likely to be unhappy than happy. Ten was the first number at which people were more likely to be happy than unhappy. The happiest people were those with dozens of friends, according to the study, which was carried out for the National Lottery(彩票).

For women, this meant having 33 friends;for men, the number was 49. Dr. Tunney said,“People who were extremely satisfied with their lives had twice the number of friends of people who were extremely dissatisfied. ” Women tended to have fewer friends than men but formed tighter relationships. Interestingly, the study found that childhood friends are no more likely to make us happy than people we become close to later in life. Lottery winners, however, have a differentopinion on life. They are always happier than others despite spending their time with asmall circle of old friends. This could be because they trust people they’ve known for along time.

1.What’s the best title for this passage?

A. The Secret to Happiness Is to Make New Friends

B. Having at Least 10 Good Friends Makes People Happy

C. Why Most People Like to Make Friends Regularly

D. Men’s and Women’s Friends Are Different

2.Which of the following opinions may Richard Tunney NOT agree with?

A. People with few friends are sure to be unhappy.

B. Our friends can make us happy.

C. Happiness may come from a good marriage life.

D. We may become happier if we have more friends.

3.According to the passage, lottery winners ________.

A. enjoy making new friends

B. make new friends easily

C. like staying with old friends

D. have no time to make friends

4.We can conclude from the passage that ________.

A. it’s enough for one person to have ten friends

B. unhappy people must have few friends

C. childhood friends make people happier than adulthood ones

D. friendships play a major role in people’s life
