AI wish there would be a way to describe China in simple terms but that’s impossible. For the most part Chinese people are friendly, easy-going and optimistic. They are curious and unusually patient and they are also the hard-working people I have ever met.In China, family is everything. In my English classes when the students were asked what they would do if they only had a few hours to live, most students told me how they would spend their last few hours with their families and parents. Many times the subjects in the classes center on families and friends. I have been teaching for a year here.The cost of living here is very low compared with that of the US. The city of Lu’an I live in isn’t large and I live better. Non-imported(非出口的) foods are very cheap, so are clothing and articles of everyday use. The cost of public transportation is very low, too. Chinese people value education. However, it is reported that many children can’t afford the expenses of schooling and are forced to leave school in some poor area in China. But they organized Project Hope many years age. It creates conditions for the poor children to go back to school. In my opinion, Project Hope is of great importance to the development of the rural education.When we read news of China in the west, rarely, if ever, will we see anything mentioned of the positive changes China has gone through. While it is true that economic miracles(奇迹) have not reached many areas of China, Americans also have the same problems.When I am asked which country I consider better. China or the US, my answer has always been the same, “We are not worse or better tha n each other, we are only different.”21.What does the author think of Chinese people?A. He thinks most Chinese people hardly workB. He thinks most Chinese people are proudC. He praises most Chinese people a lotD. He dislikes most Chinese people22.What is the author doing in China?A. He is on his summer vacation.B. He is teaching English in a schoolC. He is studying in a collegeD. He is on business23.What are not cheap in China in the author’s opinion?A. Clothes and shoes made in ChinaB. Local foodsC. Public transportation ticketsD. Imported foods24.We can infer from the passage that the author thinks______.A. the westerners have got to know China wellB. China’s economic miracles have appeared everywhereC. the progress of China is seldom reported in the USD. the education in rural areas is never cared about in USBNow we answer a question from Bangladesh(孟加拉国). Out listener wants to know about the history of the number 13 and why Americans consider this number to be bad luck.It is not only Americans who consider this number to be unlucky. People around the world have what are called superstitions(迷信) about the number 13. Superstitions are popular beliefs that are not based on reason or science. A person believes something brings good or bad luck.This fear is so strong around the world that many tall buildings do not have a 13th level. And, many airports do not have a gate numbered 13. Even some cities and town skip over 13th Street. The number 13 is not an object or a situation, and it can be impossible for the sufferer to avoid.Some experts say fears about this number come from ancient religious stories. One Norse myth(神话) is about twelve gods who were having a party in their heaven, Valhalla. Loki, the god of evil and disorder, arrived at thedinner party uninvited. He became the 13th person at the table. Loki then helped cause the death of Balder, the god of joy.In the Christian book, the Bible, Judas is the 13th guest at the dinner called the Last Supper. Judas is the man who betrays(背叛) Jesus, leading to his death.Many people around the world also consider Fridays that fall on the 13th day of a month to be especially bad luck.Many cultures have traditions of unlucky numbers other than 13. These beliefs, like our fear of 13, are mostly rooted in ancient events that were somehow connected with the number in question. The fear of numbers is a very fear for many people. It appears to be an ancient and widespread fear whose origins may never be fully understand.25. The underlined phrase “skip over” in Paragraph 3 means_______.A. includeB. cancelC. divideD. prefer26. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?A. Why the number 13 is rarely seen in public places.B. The fear of the number 13 must be dealt with seriously.C. The fear of the number 13 common in the world.D. The number 13 causes much trouble in people’s lives.27. According to the Norse myth, the number 13 is unlucky because the 13th guest_______.A. killed the god of joy at the dinner tableB. brought bad luck to the others at the partyC. helped cause the death of Jesus at supper.D. helped cause the death of Balder28. The passage is probably taken from______A. a history bookB. a radio programC. a science magazineD. a travel guideCFor the most part, you are probably only exposed to the music that is played on your favorite radio stations, TV shows, music websites, or the music that your friends and family members enjoy. While you probably know a lot about your favorite type of music, it can be a rewarding experience to enlarge your horizons (眼界)if you are trying to discover artists and types of music that you're not familiar with. You might discover you like certain types ofmusic you never even considered.Have you ever wondered about the history and influences of your favorite types of music ? For example, did you know that rock 'n' roll originated (起源) from the blues, and that the blues began as a form of musical expression for African Americans during slavery (奴隶制度)? Did you know that most hip-hop is heavily influenced by early rhythm blues and jazz ?There are many fun ways to learn about different musical styles and their historical roots. For example, if you like hip-hop, listen to some of your favorite CDs and take note of the samples the performers used to create the songs. There is a possibility that the artist used parts of older songs to create the music. You can go to the library or online to learn more about the artists and listen to more of their music by checking out CDs from the library or downloading songs online for a small fee.You can learn so much about culture and history just by paying attention to different types of music and what is being expressed in the songs. There are so many different styles of music to learn about, and you owe it to yourself to make an effort to listen to and learn about them.29. The main topic of this passage is _____.A. creating musicB. learning about musicC. enjoying your favorite musicD. performing music30. What music did African Americans use to express their feelings of being slaves ?A. Rock 'n' roll.B. Hip-hop.C. The blues.D. Jazz.31. How can we learn about culture and history through music ?A. By caring about what is being expressed in music.B. By creating music from older songs ourselves.C. By writing down the names of the music.D. By keeping a record of fees after downloading songs online.32. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?A. you should return something to musicB. you should try harder to learn about musicC. you should borrow music CDs from othersD. you should buy music CDs yourselfDThe National GalleryDescription:The National Gallery is the British national art museum built on the north side of Trafalgar Square in London.
