They had put 42 soil in one pot, to see what effect this would have on the 43 of the beans in it, and good soil in the other three pots.

But this story is one such lesson that I will never forget. Every time I drift off course, I think of this story. It was a normal Monday morning, and my teacher was teaching us on important things in life and about devoting ourselves to what is important to us. This is how the story went: An old man lived in a certain part of London, and he would wake up every morning and go to the sub-way. He would get onto the train right to Central Lon-don, and then sit at the street corner and beg. He would do this every single day of his life. He sat at the same street corner and begged for almost 20 years. His house was dirty, and a stench (恶臭) came out of the house and it smelled terrible. The neighbors could not stand the smell any more, so they called for the police officers to clear the place. The officers knocked down the door and cleaned the house. There were small bags of money all over the house that he had collected over the years. The police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a millionaire (百万富翁). They waited outside his house expecting to share the good news with him. When the old man arrived home that evening, one of the officers told him that there was no need for him to beg any more as he was a rich man now, a millionaire. But the old man said nothing at all; he went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he woke up as usual, went to the subway, sat at the street corner and continued to beg. Clearly, this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything significant (有意义的) for his life. We learn nothing from this story other than staying focused on the things we enjoy doing. 56.The underlined part in the first paragraph may mean _.A. I get tired of learning my subjectsB. I fail to listen to lessons attentivelyC. I go in the wrong direction of lifeD. I wouldnt like to go to school57.The neighbor called the police because _.A. the old man kept begging money from them every dayB. there was something dangerous in the old mans houseC. the old man wouldnt buy tickets for the trainD. they couldnt bear the smell from the old mans house58.When the old man knew he was a millionaire, he _.A. remained calm B. became excited C. felt worried D. became nervous59.What lesson do we learn from the story?A. Make great plans for your life. B. Keep on doing what you like.C. Do something that is good to society. D. Depend on yourself rather than others.BEleven-year-old Cammy Holmes walked along the shores of Washington, D.C.s Anacostia River with her big sister and a friend. Wearing gloves to protect their hands, they filled a garbage bag with everything from fishing lines and dirty plastic bottles to old grocery bags.The girls, and about 150 others volunteered in the International Coastal Cleanup, an event that raises the awareness of the importance of keeping the worlds waterways and oceans clean.The cleanup was organized by the Ocean Conservancy that works to protect ocean animals and their homes. Unfortunately, a lot of trash never goes into a trash can. It blows on the wind, and travels down streams and rivers to the sea.Trash isnt just ugly it can be dangerous for creatures that live in the water. Every year, plastic trash like old fishing equipment, shopping bags, and food wrappers (包装) kills one million sea birds and 100,000 marine mammals and sea turtles.Sometimes these animals get tangled up (纠缠) in garbage and die. Sometimes they eat trash that chokes (使窒息) or poisons them. Sea turtles, for example, mistake plastic bags for the jellyfish (海蜇) they love to eat.At the Anacostia River, Cammy helped the volunteers pick up 2,380 pounds of trash in just a few hours along three miles of shoreline. “When you hear about a coastal cleanup, you think it unpleasant, you have to pick up trash,” says Cammy. “But then you get there and find out it is actually fun! I liked meeting all the other people and helping out the environment.”This one-day event has an important message for 365 days of the year: “We are all connected to the ocean. You can help keep the ocean clean by putting trash in the right place. Take the extra time to put your snack wrapper in the garbage can instead of throwing it on the ground, and recycle everything you can,” says So-nia Besteiro of the Ocean Conservancy.60.

Many proverbs have been passed down from generation to generation such as “Polite behavior costs nothing” or “Showing respect demands reciprocity (相互)” and so on. For instance, there is an interesting short story. Once upon a time, a man went on a long tour to visit his friend with a swan as a gift. But it escaped from the cage on the way. Though he tried hard, he got hold of nothing but a feather. Instead of returning home, he continued his journey with the swan feather. When his friend received this unexpected gift, he was deeply moved. And the saying “The gift is nothing much, but its the thought that counts.” was spread far and wide. Chinese used to cup one hand in the other before the chest as a greeting. This tradition has a history of more than 2, 000 years and nowadays it is seldom used except in the Spring Festival. And shaking hands is more popular on some formal occasions. Bowing, as to show respect to the higher level, is often used by the lower like subordinates (下级), students, and attendants. But at present Chinese youngsters prefer to simply nod as a greeting. To some degree this development shows the ever-increasing paces of modern life. It is common social practice to introduce the junior to the senior, or the familiar to the unfamiliar. When you start a talk with a stranger, the topics such as weather, food, or hobbies may be good choices to break the ice. For a man, a chat about current affairs, sports, stock market or his job can usually go on smoothly. Similar to Western customs, you should be careful to ask a woman private questions. However, relaxing talks about her job or family life will never put you into danger. She is usually glad to offer you some advice on how to cook Chinese food or get used to local life. Things will be quite different when youve gotten to know them. Though Chinese are said to be implicit (含蓄的), they are actually humorous enough to be pleased about the jokes of Americans. 68. The author tells the story in the first paragraph in order to _.A. make fun of the stupid personB. explain the meaning of a Chinese sayingC. show Chinese like valuable gifts very muchD. show Chinese value polite behavior greatly69. In Paragraph 2, the author mainly wants to intro-duce _.A. the Chinese body language B. the traditional Chinese mannersC. the development of Chinese manners D. the way the lower show respect to the higher70. Which of the following picture shows the gesture mentioned at the beginning of Paragraph 2?A. B. C. D. 71. The passage is mainly about _.A. Chinese proverbs B. Chinese humourC. Chinese manners D. Chinese body languagesESimply put, language is what people and animals use to communicate their thoughts, ideas and feelings. Of course, animals communicate with each other differently from humans, and each type of animal communicates differently. For example, a bee uses a dance to tell the rest of the bees in the hive (蜂窝) where there is food, while whales communicate through the use of pleasant-sounding sounds. One could say then, that animals use different languages.Like animals, people also use different languages. Each culture has its own words and symbols that are used by people within that culture to communicate with others in the same culture. For example, a person living in Japan will use the Japanese language to communicate with other Japanese. Unlike animals though, some cultures use more than one language. People within these cultures are said to be either bilingual (双语的) or multilingual (多语的). One such place is Canada. It is very likely that a person living in Canada may speak both French and English. Likewise, a person living in Switzerland may speak Italian, German and French.Not only do people use different languages to communicate, but languages also have different dialects. A dialect is a difference of a language which uses words and grammar somewhat differently from the standard form of the same language. For example, people who live in Manchester, England speak a dialect that is a little different from people who live in London, England; however, people in both cities speak English. There are also some people who dont use a spoken language at all. These people use their hands to communicate. This type of language is called sign language and is most commonly used by people who are deaf. Now that we know how people communicate, we are faced with a question. Are we part of a certain culture because of the language we speak, or do we speak a particular language bec
