assigned（指定）a seat by the teacher, i always 37 to sit at the back of the classroom.all this 38 after i joined a sports team. it began when a teacher suggested i try out for the basketball team. at first i thought it was a crazy 39 because i didnt have a good sense of balance, nor did i have the 40 to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. but for the teacher who kept insisting on my “ 41 for it”, i wouldnt have decided to give a try.getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the 42 of it! when i first started 43 the practice sessions, i didnt even know the rules of the game, much 44 what i was doing. sometimes id get 45 and take a shot at the wrong directionwhich made me feel really stupid. 46 , i wasnt the only one “new” at the game, so i decided to 47 on learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things i didnt 48 “just yet”.i practiced and practiced. soon i knew the 49 and the “moves”. being part of a team was fun and motivating. very soon the competitive 50 in me was winning over my lack of confidence. with time, i learned how to play and made friends in the 51 friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player. i never had so much fun!with my 52 self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. i have gone from “53” in the back of the classroom and not

man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. while the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in america as a farmer or laborer of some sort.this attitude toward manual labor(体力劳动) is now still seen in many aspects of american life. one is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward. furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. on the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. a professional man may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. his wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. the son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education.61. from paragraph 1, we can know that in america _.a. people tend to have a high opinion of the self-made manb. people can always rise to the top through their won effortsc. college professors win great respect from common workersd. people feel painful to mention their fathers as labors62. according to the passage, the hostess cooks dinner herself mainly because _.a. servants in american are hard to get b. she takes pride in what she can do herselfc. she can hardly afford servants d. it is easy to prepare a meal with canned food63. which of the following statements is true?a. americans respect people who have made their achievements by working hard.b. americans look down upon manual labor.c. american parents enjoy doing everything for their children.d. american families like to prepare their food quickly and easily.64. the expression “wait on table” in the second paragraph means “_”.a. work in a furniture shop b. keep accounts for a barc. wait to lay the table d. serve customers in a restaurant65. which of the following may serve as the best title of the passage?a. a respectable self-made family b. american attitude toward manual laborc. characteristics of american cultured. the development of manual labor 参考答案-6165 abadb *结束（2）as you know different countries have different customs. also there are many gestures showing many meanings in many countries. here are a few examples of gestures. a fisherman in britain will show the size of a fish he has caught by holding his two hands, palms(手掌) facing each other, the right distance apart in front of him. but the one from certain part of africa will measure off the size along his left arm with his right hand. in britain the gesture to show the number “one” is made by holding up the index finger (the second finger), but in switzerland it is the thumbthe first finger which is held up. some people point at objects with finger, others by sticking out the lips. the gesture for “come here” is made in britain with the index finger, which is held, pointing upwards, at eye level and bent towards the body; in egypt the hand is held at arms length, palm downwards, and the fingers are then bent. the difference between the movements is very important, and the meanings of the same gestures maybe
