Walking along a lake in the cold winter, Birbal and the king made a bet（打赌）that a man would do anything for money.
The king said, “I don’t think a man would spend an entire night in the cold water of this lake for money.”
Birbal replied, “ I’m sure I can find such a person.”
The king asked Birbal to find such a person and said that he would reward the person with a thousand gold coins.
Birbal searched far and wide and finally found a poor man. When he entered the lake, the king had guards around him to make sure that he really did as promised.
The poor man made it. He told the king that there had been a street lamp nearby and that he had kept his attention on the lamp and managed to avoid the cold. The king then said that there would be no reward as he relied on the warmth of the street lamp.
The poor man went to Birbal for help.
The next day, Birbal did not go to court（上朝）. The king went to Birbal’s house and see what he was up to.

Nonverbal （非语言的）Communication
When you are in another country, it is important to know the language, but it is equally important to know how to communicate nonverbally. Before saying anything, people communicate nonverbally by making gestures. According to an investigation(调查),only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal. When people don’t know the language, the most common way to communicate is through gestures. However, many gestures have different meanings, or no meaning at all, in different parts of the world.
In the United States, for example, nodding your head up and down means “yes”. In some parts of Greece and Turkey, however, this motion can mean “no”. In Southeast Asia, nodding your head is a polite way of saying “I’ve heard you.”
In ancient Rome, when the emperor wanted to spare someone’s life, he would put his thumb up. Today in the United States, when someone puts his/her thumb up, it means “Everything is all right.” However, in Sardinia and Greece, the gesture is insulting (侮辱)and should not be used there.
In the United States, raising your clasped(握紧的) hands above your head means “I’m the champion” or “I’m the winner”. It is the sign that prizefighters make when they win a fight. When a leading Russian statesman(政治家) made this gesture after a White House meeting, Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner. In Russia, however, it is a sign of friendship.
There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country, such as the distance to maintain between speakers. Americans stand closer to each other than English people. English people don’t like touching somebody or being touched. Now in America, touch is important. For example friends touch each other on the arm. They often put an arm around a friend when they say “hello” or “goodbye”.
1.It is very important to know how to communicate nonverbally when you are in another country because .
A. most people speak different languages
B. much of our communication is nonverbal on many occasions
C. people usually make gestures before saying anything
D. it’s easy to learn how to express oneself through gestures
2.If a native in Singapore nods his head up and down when you talk to him, his motion means .
A. yes B. no
C. that’s all right D. I’ve heard you
3.When the Russian leader put up his clasped hands after the meeting at the White House .
A. he meant Russia was the winner
B. he was insulting America
C. he made a show of friendship to America
D. he in fact meant nothing at all
4.The gesture of putting one’s thumb up should not be used when you are travelling in .
A. China B. the United States
C. Greece D. Southeast Asia

Singles' Day ---- the Chinese opposite of Valentine’s Day has turned into a massive online shopping event. It is a day when single people are supposed to buy themselves presents. But there are sociological reasons behind China's “celebration” of single life. And the imbalance could have big consequences for the country.
There were 34 million more men than women in China in 2011. Part of that is natural – usually there are 105 boys born for every 100 girls. But the Chinese gender ratio (性别比例) at birth is much more obvious. It was 116 boys to 100 girls in 2012. The one child policy is largely to blame. Brought in to limit population expansion, the policy allows only one child per family. But because male children are seen as more valuable, as well as more likely to support their parents in old age, some parents choose to have a son over a daughter. The result is that large numbers of men will likely never get married. In fact, one study has predicted that by 2030, 1 in 5 Chinese men in their 30s will never have married, while another states that 94% of unmarried people in China are men.
Traditionally, China h as seen high levels of marriage, usually among the young. Besides, the increased education and career opportunities for women have meant that marriages are happening later. It is also traditional that women often marry men of a higher socioeconomic status than themselves. So women at the top and men at the bottom find themselves alone. One study has even suggested a link between an imbalanced gender ratio and growth in violent crime in the country.
Singles’ Day can’t solve all the problems China’s singles face. Indeed, it is possible that it is causing even more problems, as men resort to increasingly risky lines of work to increase their chances of gaining money and thus a wife. I am worried that as money starts to overcome romance, there is evidence that China ' s marriage market is increasingly materialistic.
1.In 2012, if 50 girls were born, how many boys were probably born?
A. 50. B. 52. C. 58. D. 60.
2.What made women
in China get married late?
A. Their support of the government’s late marriage policy.
B. Their higher education level and more work chances.
C. That they expect to enjoy their single time when young.
D. That there are too many excellent young men to choose from.
3.What’s the writer’s attitude to the imbalance gender ratio in China?
A. Optimistic B. Concerned
C. Indifferent D. Unknown
4.We can learn from the passage that .
A. Singles' Day is celebrated all over the world.
B. by 2030, 1 in 5 Chinese women in their 30s will be out of marriage.
C. an imbalanced gender ratio is related to the growth in violent crime.
D. Singles' Day will solve all the problems China’s singles face.

Sure, it’s good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.
And yes, it’s good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it’s smart to learn how to understand the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.
“But really, there’s one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do, learning bursts right open,” says Evelyn Vu
ko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column called “Teacher Says” for the Washington Post newspaper.
In fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but they’re more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school life, such as bullying.
As a kid in a primary or middle school, you’re at a wonderful stage in your life. You’re like a sponge (海绵), able to absorb lots of new and exciting information. On top of that, you’re able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, in most cases, is very excited to be the person who’s giving you all that material and helping you make it. Remember, teachers are people, too, and they feel great if you’re open to what they’re teaching you. That’s why they wanted to be teachers in the first place—to teach!
Some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren’t going well, they won’t learn as well and won’t enjoy being in class.
1.In the passage, the author mainly talks about _______.
A. how to get along well with others
B. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachers
C. the importance of a good relation with teachers

2.“Learning bursts right open” in the third paragraph really means _______.
A. there will be more problems with learning
B. you find an opening to learning
C. learning becomes easier for you at once
D. there will be no problems at all with learning
3.Which of the comments is FALSE on teachers and their work according to the passage?
A. Teachers sometimes have the same feelings as students do.
B. Teachers are excited even if you wouldn’t like to accept their teaching.
C. Though few, there are still some students who can learn even if they don’t like the teacher.
D. Having a bad relationship with your teachers does more or less harm to your studies.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
In the US and Britain, the slogan around colleges was “Save water. Shower with a friend.” Now, Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse. It charges students for the amount of time in a shower. Before entering the bathhouse, students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card. The clock starts ticking the minute the tape is turned on. It pauses when a button is pressed for soap. An integrated circuit (IC) card reader at each tap shows the time. No money, no water. The benefits of the new system can be seen with the old system, which charged 1 Yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower. The university used about 320 tons of water daily under the old system, but only 160 tons now.
Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided. Some students say it is bad because bathing had become a sort of race. Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower. Some might be embarrassed if their time is up and they’re still covered in soap. They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time.
“It’s a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card,” said Ren, a freshman in Wuhan University. The university is also considering some students’ suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they’ve finished the shower. Not surprisingly, some are complaining about losing the hour shower. But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense.
Without the time limits, most students tended to shower for 30 to an hour in the bathhouse.
Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes. “In my experience, 10—20 minutes is enough,” said Dai Zhihua, a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes.
A similar system has been installed in other universities. Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September. The bathing fee there is 0.2 Yuan per minute. One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower.
1.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. Students buy the time of their showers.
B. The clock times the student’s bathing except when the bather pauses for soap.
C. If money runs out, there will be no water.
D. Having finished bathing, the student has to pay for it.
2.The underline word “flaw” (Paragraph 3) most probably means __________.
A. fault B. advantage
C. pity D. perfection
3.Since the new system has performed, __________ of water can be saved.
A. a quarter B. one third
C. one half D．two thirds
4.It can be inferred from the passage that __________.
A. the new operation can raise students’ environmental awareness
B. the new operation can solve the water crisis
C. a similar operation has been set in other universities
D. the university has saved a lot of water by using the new system
5.In which column can you find this passage?
A. Culture. B. Society.
C. Campus Life. D. Lifestyle.
