American people like to say “ Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many countries do so, too. It is a very good habit(习惯). 
You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you the salt on the table, when someone walking ahead of you keeps the door open for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters.
“Excuse me” is another short sentence they use. When you hear someone say so behind you,
you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. It’s not polite to break others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you begin to cough or make any noise before others.
Let’s learn to say “Thank you” and “Excuse me”.

解析试题分析:美国人喜欢说“谢谢你”当其他人帮助他们或者向他们说赞扬。许多国家的人也这样做。这是一个非常好的习惯。你应该说“谢谢你”当有人递给你盐时,当有人在你之前为你打开门,当有人说你的工作做得好,或你买了好东西,或者你所居住的城市非常美丽。“谢谢你”不仅仅是朋友之间,而且父母与子女之间,兄弟姐妹。“对不起”是一个短短的一句话。你知道有人想走过去,不能不碰到你。打断别人的讲话这是不礼貌。如果你想跟他们其中的一个,说“对不起”,再开始说话。当你开始咳嗽或作出任何噪音之前等等,你也应该这么做。让我们学会说“谢谢”、“对不起”。
【小题1】细节理解题。问题:在什么时候你要说“谢谢”?原句:American people like to say “ Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them.句意:美国人喜欢说“谢谢你”当其他人帮助他们或者向他们说赞扬。得知是别人帮助你时,故选C。
【小题2】细节理解题。问题:通过短文我们知道“谢谢”的运用范围?通过全文与日常生活中实际得知,“谢谢”是全世界的语言,故选 A。
【小题3】细节理解题。问题:如果你想做什么时,你应该说“对不起”?原文:you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. It’s not polite to break others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you begin to cough or make any noise before others.句意:你知道有人想走过去,不能不碰到你。打断别人的讲话这是不礼貌。如果你想跟他们其中的一个,说“对不起”,再开始说话。当你开始咳嗽或作出任何噪音之前等等,你也应该这么做。从中得知,选项中前三项都符合题意,第四项为前者都对,故选D。
【小题4】细节理解题。问题:当你将要去问某人,请告诉你的路,你应该说什么?原句 If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking.句意: 如果你想跟他们其中的一个,说“对不起”,再开始说话。故选C。

Bai Yansong, a famous TV host, expressed his support for students wearing green scarves (绿领巾) at a primary school in Xi’an. He wore a green tie on a TV program on October 19, 2011. “I just want the students to know that I’m also wearing green. And we are all great people and are as good as those wearing red scarves.”
The First Experimental Primary School in Xi’an made children with poor schoolwork and behavior wear green scarves. Parents whose children wore green scarves were angry. “The children still need their self-esteem (自尊心) even though they are very young, and they know the green scarf means something is not quite right,” said one mother. Now, the school has stopped the practice.
Educational expert Li Zhenxi said that primary and junior high school students have strong self-esteem. They are eager to be respected and understood. Punishment will hurt them. “It’s better to encourage them rather than separating some ‘bad’ students,” he said.
A survey made by the Ministry of Education (教育部) shows that 75 percent of students feel nervous and scared when the teacher is about to announce their grades. Some schools have done better in protecting students’ privacy and encouraging them. In American schools, teachers post test results on the wall. Instead of using student names, they use secret numbers. This way, students know their secret numbers and can check their own grades only. Some teachers might call the students up to the desk and tell them their scores one at a time.
But test scores are not the only measures of a student’s ability. Everyone has his own strengths and everyone can make great progress by working hard.
【小题1】Bai Yansong wore a green tie in a TV program in order to _______.

A.show people his special dressing style
B.call on people to live a green life
C.tell students green-scarf students are also good students
D.remind students wearing green scarves means being bad
【小题2】Why did those parents whose children wore green scarves feel angry?
A.Because their children did do well at school.
B.Because they thought the school didn’t have the right.
C.Because it was against the law.
D.Because it hurts their children’s self-esteem.
【小题3】According to the article, which of the following is TRUE?
A.Primary school students are too young to know what self-esteem is.
B.Separating some “bad” students helps create good learning environment.
C.Most “good” students like their teachers to announce their scores.
D.Using secret numbers instead of students’ names can protect their privacy better.
【小题4】Which of the following may the writer agree with?
A.The green scarves system can make students work hard.
B.Student’s ability should not be measured only by test scores.
C.Students who get low marks should use secret numbers.
D.Teachers should tell students their scores secretly one by one.
【小题5】What does the word “measure” mean in the last paragraph?
A.长度B.尺度
C.方法D.标准

On February 9th, 2013, Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris. She reached into her change purse, emptied out all the coins she had and gave them to the homeless man. Neither of them realized that this small generous act would change their lives.

Sarah didn’t realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the following morning. She and her husband, Bill Krejci, rushed to see if they could find Billy. The homeless man was not only in the same place, he also immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets of all the money they had.
Bob Krejci, a web designer, felt that he needed to do something more for this amazingly honest man. So on February 18th, he set up a special page to raise money for him. In just four days, Billy received over $85,000 and there seems to be no end yet.
That is not enough. Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets. And that’s not all—Thanks to the news report, he got together again with his older brother, Edwin Harris who he had been unable to find for 27 years.

Thousands of teenagers will be able to move to a new wave of “studio schools” at the age of 14 to improve their chances of finding a job in UK. Twelve new-style schools are open to act as a bridge to the workplace and cut the number of NEETs.
Under plans, schools will operate longer days and work outside standard school terms.
Each teenager will be expected to spend between four hours and two days a week on work placements with business related to the school and a personal coach will be sent to the teenagers to act as a school “line manager”.
The reforms (改革) are put forward because of the fears that too many teenagers are finishing full-time education at present but they are short of the skills needed to succeed in the workplace. According to a recent report, more than two thirds of employers (雇主) believe school and college leavers have less important employability skills, while 55% say they are unable to manage their time or daily routine. And the number of NEETs who are not in education has hit a record high, with almost one-in-five young people being left without a job or a training place.
The Department for Education will tell the public the building of 12 studio schools – providing for around 3,600 teenagers – in areas such as Liverpool, Stevenage, Stock-on-Trent and Fulham, west London. Each one will be connected to the local employers. Under plans, teenagers will be able to move out of ordinary schools to attend them between the ages of 14 and 19.
The government said all subjects would be taught “through projects, often prepared with employers” – with rules such as science being connected directly to local engineering companies or hospitals. Schools will operate a longer day to give teenagers a better understanding of the needs of the workplace. Along with their studies, students will carry out work placements for four hours a week, rising to two days a week of paid work for those aged 16 to 19. They will also get the chance to take professional qualifications (专业资历) connected directly to the needs of local employers.
【小题1】According to the passage, NEETs refer to those who ______.

A.often miss classes from studio school
B.prefer studio schools to ordinary schools
C.refuse to take any part-time job after school
D.are not in education, employment or training
【小题2】Compared to ordinary schools, studio schools will offer the young more ______.
A.skills to finish full-time education
B.personal coaches to help with the work
C.chances to get future jobs with job training
D.jobs to make money without going outside
【小题3】What makes the government decide to build studio schools?
A.The worry about educated teenagers short of working skills.
B.The doubt about whether full-time education is perfect.
C.The decision to solve the problems of unemployment.
D.The increasing number of teens who drop out early.
【小题4】What can be the best title for the passage?
A.Studio schools are popular in UK at present.
B.More NEETs will find jobs from Studio schools.
C.Teenagers will get jobs without full-time education.
D.Studio schools are built to improve teens’ employability skills.

Do you like to sit in front of the computer and play computer games hour after hour? Have you ever thought of what that may be doing to your health? More and more children are becoming overweight(肥胖的) and growing less creative because they spend too much time in front of the computer according to a survey.
Last week Child Protective Services(儿童保护组织)in America organized an activity. The aim of the activity was to encourage children to do some outdoor activities instead of playing computer games at home. Many American children spend about 1,000 hours a year playing computer games — more time than they spend in school. As a result, they are overweight. Some of them have very poor eyesight, and they can’t see clearly.
Everyone should pay attention to his health and try to keep healthy. The doctor says that the longer children play computer games, the more overweight they may become. And the junk food children eat while they’re playing computer games makes the weight problem more serious.
To keep fit, children need to take exercise regularly, play outside with friends, and explore the world around them. Can you spend two weeks without playing computer games? It might be difficult for computer lovers, but why not have a try?
