题目内容

     It is difficult for parents of nearly every family to teach their children to be responsible(有责任的)for
housework, but with one of the following suggestions, you really can get your children to help at home.
If you give your children the impression that they can never do anything quite right, then they will regard
themselves as unfit or unable persons. Unless children believe they can succeed, they will never become
totally independent.
     My daughter Mary's fifth-grade teacher made every child in her class feel special. When students
received less than a perfect test score, she would point out what they had mastered (掌握) and declared
firmly they could learn what they had missed.
     You can use the same way when you evaluate(评价)your child's work at home. Don't always scold
and you should give lots of praise instead. Talk about what he has done right, not about what he hasn't
done. If your child completes a difficult task, promise him a Sunday trip or a ball game with Dad.
     Learning is a process(过程)of trying and failing and trying and succeeding. If you teach your children
not to fear a mistake of failure, they will learn faster and achieve success at last.

     Computers are very important to modern life.Many people think that in the future computers will be
used a lot in everyday life.It is thought that we won't have to go shopping because we will be able to get
most things which are sold in shops on the Internet.There will be no more books because we will be able

     Traveling without a map in different countries, I find out about different "styles"(方式) of directions
(方向)every time I ask "How can I get to the post office?"
     Foreign tourists are often confused (迷惑的) in Japan because most streets there don't have name
signs; in Japan, people use landmarks(地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example,
the Japanese will say to travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past
a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop."
     People in Los Angeles(洛杉矶), the US, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure (衡量)
distance (距离)by time, not miles. "How far away is the post office?" you ask. "Oh," they answer, "it's
about five minutes from here." You don't understand completely, "Yes, but how many miles away is it,
please?" To this question you won't get an answer, because most probably they don't know it themselves.
     People in Greece(希腊) sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom
understand the Greek language. Instead, a Greek will often say, "Follow me." Then he'll lead you through
the streets of the city to the post office.
     Sometimes a person doesn't know the answer to your question. What happens in the situation? A
New Yorker might say, "Sorry, I have no idea." But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers "I don't
know." People there believe that "I don't" is impolite. They usually give an answer, but often a wrong
one. So a tourist can get lost very easily in Yucatan!
     However, one thing will help you everywhere in the world. It's body language.

1. Which one of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions?

A. "Go south two miles. Turn west and then go another mile."
B. "Turn right at the hospital and go past a school. The library is right in front of you."
C. "The post office is about five minutes from here."
D. "The post office is at Street Kamira."

2. People in Los Angeles don't give directions in miles because ______.

A. they use landmarks in their directions instead of distance
B. they prefer to lead you the way
C. they often have no idea of distance measured by miles
D. they prefer to use body language

3. Greeks give directions by ______.

A. using street names
B. using landmarks
C. leading people the way

     John Steinbeck once said,"All Americans believe they are born fishermen.For a man to
admit to a distaste in fishing would be like denouncing(公开谴责)mother-love or hating
moonlight."?
     I can't say that I'm the biggest John Steinbeck fan.Actually,the only thing I can remember
reading by him was "The Pearl" when I was in middle school,but I couldn't agree more with
the man when it comes to fishing.Whether I am on a boat in the middle of Lay Lake,fishing
off the shores of the Florida Keys for tarpon(大海鲢)or catching rainbow trout(虹鳟鱼)in
the Shoshone River of Wyoming,fishing is my life.?
     According to the American Sportsfishing Asso ciation,the fishing industry brings in more
than $116 billion per year from fishermen across the country.?
      Though a beautiful picture to imagine,fishing is much more than that.Fi shing is a way
of life for many people and a way to escape everyday stress.Being a fisherman makes me
a member of a wonderful group of people extending to all walks of life.Even President
Bush can be found fishing on his farm in Texas with his good friend Roland Martin when
the job gets too stressful.?
      I can remember fishing with my grandfather when I was 5 years old on his boat at Lake
Mitchell.Although I didn't understand what I was doing,I did know that my grandfather was
happy and that made me happy.Since then I have spent the past 16 years on the rivers and
lakes of Alabama.
     After years of practice,before and after work,I slowly developed an understanding of
fishing.My boss,Ric Horst,took me back to the Shoshone,and I managed to bring in a
19-inch cutthroat trout.Fishing with Ric was a life-changing experience for me.He not only
showed me how to fish correctly,but also told me how fishing could be a way to escape
your problems.?
      Since then,prime-time(黄金时间)season seems to take forever to arrive.?
      Now,with the ending of February and beginning of March in sight,the excitement of
heading out to Lake Tuscaloosa or Lake Lurleen before classes and catching something
has finally returned.? ??

     If cars had wings,they could fly and that just might happen, beginning in 2012.The company
Terrafugia, based in Woburn, Massachusetts, says it plans to deliver its carplane, the Transition,
to customers by the end of 2012.
     "It's the next 'wow' vehicle,"said Terrafugia vice president Richard Gersh. "Anybody can buy
a Ferrari, but as we say, Ferraris don't fly."
     The car plane has wings that unfold for flying-a process the company says takes one
minute-and fold back up for driving. A runway is still required to take off and land.
     The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies, although it is
both. The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations, and with the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations.
     The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as a more convenient and cheaper
way to fly. They say it saves you the trouble of trying to find another mode of transportation to get
to and from airports: You drive the car to the airport and then you're good to go. When you land,
you fold up the wings and hit the road. There are no expensive parking fees because you don't have
to store it at an airport-you park it in the garage at home.
     The carplane is designed to fly primarily under 10,000 feet. It has a maximum takeoff weight of
1,430 pounds, including fuel and passengers. Terrafugia says the Transition reduces the potential for
an accident by allowing pilots to drive under bad weather instead of flying into marginal(临界)
conditions.
    The Transition's price tag: $194,000. But there may be additional charges for options like a radio,
transponder or GPS. Another option is a fullplane parachute.
     "If you get into a very awful situation, it is the necessary safety option," Gersh said.
      So far, the company has more than 70 orders with deposits. "We're working very closely with
them, but there are still some remaining steps," Brown said.

1. We can learn from the first paragraph that________.

A. carplanes will be popular in 2012
B. people might drive a carplane in 2012
C. both Transition and Ferrari can take off and land
D. Richard Gersh is the vice president of Massachusetts

2. It takes the carplane one minute to________.

A. fold and unfold its wings
B. unfold wings for flying
C. land in the airport
D. meet flying safety regulations

3. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A. The carplane needs a runway to take off and land.
B. To meet aircraft regulations, the company has been working with FAA.
C. The carplane may fly as high as normal planes.
D. People can park the carplane in the garage at their home.

4. The underlined word "it" in the last but one paragraph refers to________.

A. the radio
B. the transponder
C. the GPS
D. the fullplane parachute

5. What's the best title for the passage?

A. Cars With Wings May Be Just Around The Corner
B. Which To Choose: A Ferrari Or A CarPlane?
C. A More Convenient And Cheaper Way To Fly
D. Cars With Wings Can Fly As Fast As Plane

     The producer of a new Indonesian movie about President Obama's childhood years in Jakarta(雅加达) is hoping that interested Americans will flock to see the film, Little Obama, in theatres across the
country.
     Little Obama is the creation of Damien Dematra, an Indonesian writer and artist who has worked
on the project since November when he was struck with the idea of writing about the time a young
Obama lived in Jakarta with his mother and stepfather in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
     The film is based on a novel published in March Obama Anak Menteng, and focuses on the president's childhood friendships in Indonesia.
     The novel and the film are fictionalized(把-编成小说) accounts of the president's time in Jakarta and
are based on interviews with people who are childhood friends and neighbours of Mr. Obama. Many
Indonesians share a deep pride about a man who spent part of his shaping years in the country and went
on to become U.S. president.
     The film star is a 14-year-old Hasan Faruq Ali, an American who has lived in Indonesia with his family
for about 10 years. Like the president, he is the son of a white mother and a black father. Since filming
began, he has been under the shine of media attention. "My whole life changed overnight," he says.
     The film, which was made on a budget of $1 million, won't get its first public screening until
Wednesday, but ads for the movie on YouTube have got a few thousand hits. It isn't clear whether
Little Obama will get a U.S. release(发行), but the film's producer says he is in talks with a U.S.
distributor(发行人).
