old schoolmy grandfather was a teacher. he was the headmaster of a school for boys between the ages of thirteen and eighteen. i know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart, because when i was young (and he was old), he gave me presents and seated me on his knees, and told me stories. but i believe the boys at his school were afraid of him.at school, when he walked into a classroom full of noisy boys, those boys went red in the faces, and looked down at their shoes. if a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boys could do, my grandfather picked up the boys work and threw it across the classroom, shouting, “do it all again, and bring it back early in the morning！” if the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again. my grandfather never forgot.he was a very different man at school, from the man i saw day by day in his own home.41when he looked at a boy in a certain way, that boy _.achanged another one blooked back

angry at homebhe was not as gentle as at homeche didnt throw work at school like he did at homedhe didnt get angry at school like he did at homeb “homestay is a form of study abroad program. it allows the visitor to rent a room from a local(当地的) family to better understand the local lifestyle. it also helps to improve the visitors language ability,” said a teacher during a school meeting last term. “students who wish to learn more about foreign cultures or to get foreign experience should join this kind of holiday. i am sure you wont be disappointed.” after this special meeting, i always thought about this kind of holiday. last month, i had a chance at last to go on such a holiday with some of my schoolmates and we went to london, a place where i had wanted to go since years ago. as we were still young, we had a group leader who planned things for us and looked after us. after we got to london, we went to stay with different families. i was lucky that my host family(寄宿家庭) was a white couple who had a daughter about my age. they treated me as a daughter of their family during my stay there. they were interested in me and i learnt a lot of things from them, too. the holiday was filled with activities every day. after breakfast, a local teacher would come to take us in his car. then we would have classes or go on a sight-seeing trip to different places of interest like the big ben, the london bridge, and the buckingham palace. we would go back to our own homes after the activities. the holiday was a valuable experience for me. i enjoyed every minute of it. yet, time really flew fast. three weeks later, we had to leave “home” for hong kong.45. in the “homestay” program, a visitor can _.a. learn more about holidays b. understand his culture betterc. take part in foreign meetings d. improve the language ability46. the writer had wanted to visit london since _.a. last month b. the special meeting c. a long time ago d. her stay abroad47. the writers host family _. a. went sight-seeing with her b. was very kind to herc. had two white daughters d. was interested in her activities48. from the passage, we know that the writer _ in london.a. had a wonderful time b. wished to stay a little longerc. had classes in many interesting placesd. helped the teacher take the students in a carcamericans like to travel on their yearly holiday. today, more and more travelers in the united states are spending nights at small houses or inns(客栈) instead of hotels. they get a room for the night and the breakfast the next morning.rooms for the night in private homes with breakfast have been popular with travelers in europe for many years. in the past five to ten years, these bedandbreakfast places have become popular in the united states. many of these americas bedandbreakfast inns are old historic buildings. some bedandbreakfast inns have only a few rooms. others are much larger. some inns do not provide telephones or televisions in the rooms, others do.staying at a bedandbreakfast inn is much different from staying at a hotel. usually the cost is much less. staying at an inn is almost like visiting someones home. the owners are glad to tell about the areas and the interesting places to visit. many vacationists say they enjoy the chance to meet local families.49americans take a holiday trip _.aevery year bfor years call the year round devery other year50according to the passage, which of the following is not true?asome americans like to stay at bedandbreakfast homes instead of hotels.bthe bedandbreakfast inns have been popular in america for a long time.cthe bedandbreakfast inns are private homes opened to vacationists.dthe bedandbreakfast inn owners provide a morning meal for their visitors and a room for the night.51why do american travelers prefer staying at bedandbreakfast inns?ait is like visiting someones home. bthe money they spend there is much less.cthey can meet local families. dall of the above.52staying at the bedandbreakfast inns, _.athe travelers neednt pay anythingbthe travelers dont have to pay for the telephone or televisioncthe owners will show the travelers around the areadthe travelers can meet and talk with the local peopled it is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. in other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education dont. it seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. but this isnt accepted by all people. some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. this was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. in fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people dont need to spend so much time in school. people can get education for a living in a short time. subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail(详细地), either. here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living. education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. it is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. after that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. education is to make a man lead a better life. educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of them take an interest in the world. i would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.53. people with little education usually _.a. spend a long time in school b. have a good chance to get a jobc. have fewer chances to get a good job d. spend the best years to choose jobs54. the earliest education was probably to _.a. make a man lead a better life b. make people get a way of livingc. teach a man to write and think d. teach people to read good books55. it is expected that educated people will be able to _.a. take an interest in the whole world b. accept education as a way of living c. develop their abilities to make plays d. learn subjects like language and math第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 - what do you find hardest in
