The Internet has opened up a whole new on-line world for us to meet, chat and go where we've never been before.

But just as in face-to-face communication, there are some basic rules of behavior that should be followed when online. The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes.

For anything you're about to send: ask yourself, "Would I say this to the person's face?" If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you'd feel comfortable saying the words to the person's face.

If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.

Everyone was new to the network once. Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake whether it's a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer be kind about it. If it's a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn't give you license to correct everyone else.

If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely. At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.

It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex, and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don't ask such questions.

When you send short messages to a person, you must _____.

A．make sure that they mean no harm B．read them again and again

C．say something good to hear D．repeat them later to the person's face

If you are hurt in the chat room by others, you should _____

A．fight back in the same way B．take them seriously

C．have none of them D．be angry at them

If a newcomer who communicates on line makes any mistakes, you _____.

A．should point them out sharply

B．shouldn’t give any advice unless required by them

C．should say something about them

D．should take your responsibility to correct them

This passage mainly tells us ______.

A．some rules of Internet communication B．ways of sending messages

C．rules of the chat room D．ways of making friends on the Internet

Gu Changwei was the first Chinese cinematographer to be nominated (提名) for an Oscar, and he is regarded by Zhang Yimou as the best cinematographer in China. Gu was behind the camera for many of Zhang Yimou’s famous films including the one that rocketed Zhang to fame: "Red Sorghum (高粱)". And now this master of the visual has taken on his first directing role with the film "Peacock". So Gu Changwei has come out from behind the camera into the spotlight (聚光灯).

Gu Changwei is very serious about his directing "Peacock". To get the authentic atmosphere, Gu took his film crew to the city of Anyang in central China’s Henan province where the story took place, to shoot the film. He chose all new actors because he didn’t want "stars" appeal to weaken the power of the story, and he also had his actors trained in the local dialect. For this film Gu has been able to get out from behind the camera to manage every aspect of the film, and to realize his own ideals in movie-making.

"Peacock" is about the life of an average family in a small town in Henan province in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Gu chose this story for his first movie because he grew up during this same pe??riod and it struck a chord with him.

“Peacock” wrapped up production in June, 2004. It’s aimed at the foreign film market and will be entered in February’s Berlin Film Festival, and released in China at the same time.

The film was warmly received by both teachers and students.

Everyone wants some degree of success. Many people believe that they deserve (值得)success simply because they believe that they deserve success. But there is a widespread belief that people who get on in life may be successful not because they deserve it, but because of influential (有影响的) friends or the right background. Sometimes it may just be a comforting and harmless belief, while at the other extreme it can be very destructive. I once met a brilliant young engineer who worked in a chemical plant. Because of her knowledge and experience, she should have been promoted（升职） to Production Manager. Instead, the job went to a man who was totally unsuited for the post. Everyone knew that he only got it because he was politically acceptable to his superiors (上司). This injustice discouraged the young engineer and many of her colleagues（同事）. It also meant that the factory was much less efficient than it could have been.

At the same, we should not be pessimistic (悲观的). More and more then modern world depends on having people who are in the job because they are good enough, not just because their faces fit. There is a story of a factory owner who sent for an engineer to see to a machine which would not go. He examined it, then took out a hammer and tapped, once. The machine started up immediately. When he presented his bill, the owner protested, “This can’t be right! $ 100 just for tapping（敲打） a machine with a hammer ?” The engineer wrote out a new bill: “For tapping a machine, $1; for knowing where to tap. $99.”

The engineer at the chemical plant was not promoted because _____.

A. it was politically less good for the boss to accept her than the man

B. her boss did not think she had the right qualifications for the job

C. the man who got the promotion was more experienced than she was

D. it is more difficult for a woman to get a promotion than for her male colleague

The engineer who repaired the machine was right in charging $ 100 because____.

A. he hit the machine to get it started again

B. the factory owner could not have repaired it himself

C. he was charging for his knowledge and expert skills

D. he was the only person who could find out what was wrong with it

What can we learn about the author’s attitude toward the widespread belief that “people get on in life may be successful not because they deserve it”?

A. He quite agrees with it.

B. He doesn’t express his opinion his opinion at it.

C. He completely disagrees with it.

D. He doesn’t quite agree with it.

According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?

A. Having influential friends or right background seems helpful sometimes.

B. The engineer had good reason to overcharge the factory owner.

C. Not all those who are good in their jobs have the chance to be promoted.

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入的最佳选项。

It was a cold winter morning. Half asleep at the train station, I stared into the distance, 31 for the train to take me to my 32 in Boston. The world was quiet. The very few people on the street kept to themselves, 33 their steaming cups of coffee.

Reaching into my pocket as the 34 was approaching, my numb hand searched for the $ 20 bill to pay my fare. The pocket was 35 ! I searched through my bag and then I felt 36 . Unless the money dropped from the sky, I’d be 37 there.

“What’s the matter?” A short, elderly man stood before me.

“Oh, nothing…Well, I 38 my money and now I can’t pay for the ticket. I’m going to 39 my math class and the train is leaving.”

“Here, use this.”

The man held a $ 20 bill. I looked up, 40 . People just didn’t do that any more. Everyone worried about their own 41 , rarely stopping to think about others, especially teenage strangers.

“Thank you, but no, I can’t.”

“ 42 it—go!” The man pushed me 43 the train. I bought a round-trip ticket, and he refused the change I 44 to give him back. I did not know what to say — a million thoughts raced through my mind, yet I stood 45 .

For the train ride I was silent. I began to see the world through 46 eyes. That man made a difference with such a simple 47 .

A week later I was at the train station again, with an extra $20 48 I saw the man. And there he was.

“Excuse me, sir, I believe I owe you this.” I 49 the money into his hand.

Failing to refuse, he said, “Just remember to do the same for someone in your shoes some day.” I smiled, 50 .

The elderly man is my hero. For many, heroes are famous, but my hero is a giving stranger who taught me a lesson in life. I will never forget his kindness.

An 18-year-old high school student who had just learned to swim in the last summer vacation saved the life of a drowning Ohio boy on Friday afternoon.

Tom Erickson was credited with (因_{．．．．．．}而受赞扬)saving the life of Jason Pryor,10, in Mill Creek (小河) Park. Young Jason Pryor, from Chillicothe, was visiting relatives from Anchor Point when he fell into Mill Creek.

The Pryor boy had no business playing near the edge of the river, but he had no idea of the danger.

The creek, with much more water than usual for the recent spring rains, flowed fast and carried the boy around a bend and out of sight from his parents, who took Jason out there and said they had not even witnessed the incident.

Luckily for Jason, one of the most unselfish students from Brentwood’s Central High School was taking a walk alone through the park.

As soon as he found the boy struggling in the water, Erickson jumped into the creek and managed to pull the drowning boy out of the water. And it was reported that Erickson had never received any life-saving instruction before.

“I wasn’t sure I could do it,” Erickson said. “I didn’t know if I could swim through the river by myself, not to mention getting another person out with me.”

This incident should be a lesson to young children who do not know how to swim. Stay away from dangerous bodies of water.

Young Jason Pryor lives at _______.

A. Anchor Point B. Chillicothe, Ohio C. Mill Creek D. Brentwood

A. Life-saving instruction helped a lot in the incident.

B. Jason’s parents saw him fall into the creek but couldn’t help.

C. The creek flowed fast because it was very straight without any bends.

D. Erickson was not sure if he could save the boy when jumping into the creek.

What’s the possible meaning of the underlined sentence “The Pryor boy had no business playing near the edge of the river,” in the third paragraph?

A. The accident was none of the boy’s business.

B. The boy had no friends to play with him.

C. The boy shouldn’t have played near the creek. ks5*u

D. The boy was very busy and had no time to play.

C. The Fast Running Mill Creek D. Beginning Swimmer Saved Drowning Boy
