a. they do the same things as children from other schools. b. they have problems getting into college or getting a job. c. they are usually very successful. d. they are not successful in their business.d the expression down to earth means being open and honest. it is easy to get on with someone who is down to earth. a down-to-earth person is the opposite of someone who acts important or proud. down-to-earth people could be important members of society. but they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important. a person who is filled with his own importance and pride is said to have his nose in the air. americans use another expression that is similar in some ways to down to earth. the expression is both feet on the ground. someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of real world. he may have dreams, but he does not allow them to have influence on his understanding of what is real. the opposite kind of person is one who has his head in the clouds. someone with his head in the clouds is a person whose mind is not on what is happening in real life. such a person may be called a day-dreamer. when we have both our feet on the ground, and when we are down to earth, we do not have our noses in the air. we act honestly and openly to others. our lives are like the ground below us solid(牢固的)and strong.37.a down-to-earth person could be_. a. social and proud b. good and opposite c. real and important d. strong and changeable38. the expression has ones nose in the air means_. a眉舞 b目中无人 c瞻前 d春风得意39. if you want to understand what is real in life, you have to_. a. get along with other people easily b. learn from those who are down to earth c. be a good dreamer with quick mind d. have both your feet on the ground40. this passage mainly talks about_. a. the use of some expressions b. dreams and achievements c. the lifestyle of honest people d. honesty and understanding第二卷（三大题 共45分）三、单词拼写 根据下列句子及所给汉语注释，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式，每空只写一词。（
