One topic is rarely mentioned in all the talk of improving standards in our schools: the almost complete failure of foreign-language teaching. As a French graduate who has taught for more than twenty-five years, I believe I have some idea of why the failure is so total. &21 &the faults already found out in the education system as a whole — such as child-centred learning, the “discovery” method, and the low expectations by teachers of pupils — there have been several serious &22 &which have a direct effect on language teaching. The first is the removal from the curriculum (课程) of the thorough teaching of English &23 . Pupils now do not know a verb from a noun, the subject of a sentence from its object, or the difference between the past, present, or future. Another important error is mixed-ability teaching, or teaching in ability groups so &24 &that the most able groups are &25 &and are bored while the least able are lost and &26 &bored. Strangely enough, few head teachers seem to be in favour of mixed-ability school football teams. Progress depends on memory, and pupils start to forget immediately they stop having 27 &lessons. This is why many people who attended French lessons at school, even those who got good grades, have &28 &it a few years later. Because they never need it, they do not practice it. Most American schools have accepted what is inevitable and &29 &modern languages, even Spanish, from the curriculum. Perhaps it is time for Britain to do the same, and stop& 30 &resources on a subject which few pupils want or need. 21. A. Due to&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& B. In addition to&&&&&& C. Instead of&&&&&&&&&&& D. In spite of 22. A. errors&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& B. situations&&&&&&&&&&&& C. systems&&&&&&&&&&&&&& D. methods 23. A. vocabulary&&&&&&&&&& B. culture&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& C. grammar&&&&&&&&&&&& D. literature 24.

If you travel around the world , you will be surprised to find just how different the foreign customs can be from your own . A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table . The left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself . Also in India , you might see a man apparently shaking his head at another and assume that he is disagreeing . But in many parts of India a shake of the head is a gesture that shows agreement of acceptance . Nodding your head when offered a drink in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty . In that country you shake your head to indicate “yes” —a nod indicates “no”. The Arabs are known for their hospitality . At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula , you will find that any drinking vessel (容器,器皿)is repeatedly refilled as soon as you drink it up . In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting talking to someone , even at an important meeting . Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand , however , could cause offence . It is too informal an attitude for such an occasion . Also when in Thailand you are not supposed to touch the head of an adult —it’s just not done . In Japan , it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home . In Europe such attitudes are disappearing . Customs vary from country to country . Visitors may be at a loss as to what to do in a foreign environment . In such circumstances , the golden rule to follow is : When in Rome , do as the Romans do . 60.In which country , a left — hand is not welcomed ?&&&&&&&& . &&&&&& A.Thailand B.India &&&&& C Arabic peninsula D.Bulgaria
61.In which country , if someone shakes his head at another , it shows that he agrees or accepts ? &&&&&&&&&&& . &&&&&& A.Bulgaria B.Thailand C.China &&&& D.Arabic Peninsula
62.Which of the following is impolite in Europe ?&&&&&&&& . &&&&&& A.to cross your legs
&&&&&& B.to touch the head of an adult
&&&&&& C.That men plan evening entertainment and leave their wives at home
&&&&&& D.To drain the glass in your hand
63.If you don’t know the customs in the country where you visit , the golden rule to follow is&&&&&&&&& . &&&&&& A.to do as the Romans do B.to do nothing
&&&&&& C.to visit Rome only D.to do as the natives do

We chat with our colleagues all the time when we have lunch, gossip in the tearoom, or leave work together. Sharing your personal life brings you closer to your coworkers and builds trust within your team. But revealing too much about yourself to colleagues, managers or human resources staff can cause difficulties and even endanger your work.It's important to keep the right balance between getting along with colleagues and maintaining your privacy. “Communication in the office is tricky and complicated. You can neither spread chatter, nor be too silent and shut yourself off from others,” said Yang Yudan, deputy HR director at P&G.According to her, there are several safe topics to talk about with colleagues during the break, such as the weather or movies. Women like to talk about makeup and clothing, while men are fond of sports and online games. But discussing your private life, such as relationship, habits or health conditions, is a potential minefield.Liang Kun, 26, had to resign from his job at a trading company in Guangzhou last week after discussing his income with colleagues during a lunch break. “I didn't realize it was such a serious issue until a senior member of staff went to find the boss, asking why I got a higher salary than her,” said Liang. “Then our HR told me that according to the employee handbook it is forbidden to talk about salary in the office.” HR expert Yang also reminds us that paychecks are your own business. It is unwise to share this information with others, no matter how close you are.To summarize, Yang advises office workers to be more aware of the image they project when talking to colleagues, “When you share your personal life, it will be recorded on your invisible resume and may slow down your career progressing.”小题1:The author quoted Yang Yudan in the text to ________.A.show his admiration for herB.make an argument with herC.support his own viewpointD.build up his fame小题2:What can be inferred from the fact that Liang Kun had to resign his job according to the text?A.It was unwise for him to share information with others.B.He broke the rules made by the company.C.He was such an honest person that he told the truth.D.He treated his colleagues as family members.小题3:What is the author's purpose in writing the text?A.To draw people's attention to their behaviors in public.B.To advise office workers to be aware of the image they project.C.To make you believe that communication in the office is complicated.D.To warn you to be careful of invisible trouble while talking about your privacy to colleagues.小题4:Which would be the best title for the text?A.At Work, Keep It to YourselfB.Keep the Right BalanceC.Share Your Personal Life with OthersD.Safe Topics to Talk about

About the size of a microwave oven, it's pedestrian&friendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach Country Estates, along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.It's a library built with love.A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsin&based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That's what we're going to do for our spring break!”Son Austin, now a 10th&grader, didn't see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51&year&old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he'd built years earlier for daughter Abbie's toy horses, and made a door of glass.After adding the library's final touches(装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book,” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.They stocked it with 20 or so books they'd already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids' favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again,” said Janey, a stay&at&home mom.Since then, the collection keeps replenishing(补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.The project's best pay&off, says Peter, are the thank&you notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”小题1:In what way is the library “pedestrian&friendly”?A.It owns a yellow roof.B.It stands near a sidewalk.C.It protects book lovers from the sun.D.It uses palm&tree stickers as decorations.小题2:Janey got the idea to build a library from ________.A.a visit to Brian WilliamsB.a spring break with her familyC.a book sent by one of her neighborsD.a report on a Wisconsin&based organization小题3:The library was built ________.A.by a ship supply companyB.on the basis of toy horsesC.like a mailboxD.with glass小题4:What can we infer from the signboard?A.It was made by a user of the library.B.It marked a final touch to the library.C.It aimed at making the library last long.D.It indicated the library was a family property.小题5:The passage tells us that the users ________.A.donate books to the libraryB.get paid to collect books for the libraryC.receive thank&you notes for using the libraryD.visit the library over 5 times on average daily
