22、B, C and D. You should choose the one best answer and write it on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneI found out one timetng a favor for someone could get you a lot of trouble. I washe eighth grade at thetime, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something

23、, but I didntunderstand. So I leaned over her way and found outt she was trying to ask me if I had an extrn, she showedt hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put iton her desk.Later, after the test prs had been turned in, the tea

24、cher asked me to stayhe room when all the other studentswere dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she mentionedhow important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talks about honesty and

25、emphasized the fact the when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves.She made me promiset I would think seriously about all the things she had said, she told me I could leave. Iwalked out if the room wondering she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.Later on, I

26、 found outt she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girlnext to me, it looked as though I was copying answers from the girls test pr. I tried to explain about the pen, butall she could say was it seemed awfully strange to hert I hadnt mentioned anything about

27、the pen the day shetalked to me right after the test. Even though I tried to explahat I was justng the girl a favor by letting her usemy pen, I am sure she continued to bevet I had cheated on the test.As the boy didnt understand what the girl was whispering, he.tried to find out what it was all abou

28、twhispered back, meaning to silence herpaid no attention to herturned to the teacher for helpThe teacher saw all this, so she asked the boy .to go on writing his pto stop whisperingrC. to leave the room immediayD. to stay behind after the examThe thing(s) stressed in her talk was (were) .honestysens

30、ted talking about honestyonly some time laterwhen he was walking out of the roomPassage TwoTo be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to hold the attention and theerest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker wigood, strong, pleasing voice which is fully

31、 under yourcontrol; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.Watch a good teacher, and you will seet he does not sit motionless before his class; he stands the whole timehe is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his

32、explanations, and his face toexpress feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about.The factt a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesnt meant he willbe able to actwell on t

33、he stage, for there are very important differenbetn the teachers work and the actors. The actor hasto speak wordst he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part,even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand

34、. What he has tos tomake all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they dont understand something, they say so. The teach

35、er therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his audience, which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along.I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldnt keep discipline

36、: they could not keep strictly to what another had written.6. What is the text about?A. How toe a good teacher.B. What a good teacher should do outside the classroom.C.

50、he bills are getting bigger andbigger. In 1982, 14,000 million was spent on health. One reason for this ist there are many more old people nown there were in 1946.
