Almost every day, you spend about one third of your time in one place. There, you study and have fun with your friends. There, you grow from a little kid 16 a young adult. This place is your classroom.
The classroom is a key part of teaching. Some countries like the US are different from China. This 17 us a window to learn about their educational style.
In China, most students stay in the same classrooms. Teachers take turns teaching in different classrooms. This way of teaching makes sure that the students learn the same level of knowledge. 18 students are not offered many choices. Whether you like a 19 or not, you need to learn it.
In the US, students always change classrooms based on different subjects. Besides compulsory (必修的) classes including English and math, kids can choose to learn 20 they are interested in. Some kids may choose gardening or cooking class. This kind of way is more student-centered.
Classroom arrangement also makes a difference. Chinese classrooms are traditional, with lines of desks and chairs 21 the blackboard. Teachers usually stand on a platform when teaching. 22 , they form a style of teaching from the textbook.
However, in US classrooms, students’ seats are flexible (靈活的) according to different class activities. 23 , if students need to have a group discussion, two or three of them will move their desks to sit face to face. If they have drama or music class, they usually sit in a big circle. Sometimes, teachers also 24 the students. Children learn actively through talking and discussing with each other.
Of course, it is not 25 “good” or “bad” when judging an educational style. What you need to do is to find your own way to study.

You must think Hong Kong singer and actor Aarif Lee is a lucky guy. Only entering the business six years ago, the 28-year-old is already everywhere on our TV screens. Weeks ago he was an emperor in the TV drama The Empress of China (《武媚娘傳奇》). And now he travels with a group of actresses in the reality show Sister Over Flowers (《花樣姐姐》).
But even the luckiest guys come across difficulties. Lee’s been through crises (危機(jī)) too.
Lee found his love for music before he was 15. But instead of going for that, he chose to do physics at Imperial College London, one of the world’s top universities.
In his high school in Hong Kong, Lee was a head boy and everything came easily to him. However, university in London was a world away from the comfortable environment of high school.
“Compared with Hong Kong, Imperial was a war zone, where everyone was so competitive (好競(jìng)爭(zhēng)的), pushing to get what they wanted,” he said. “It was the first time in my life that I thought I might fail at something.”
He didn’t. Although for a time he really regretted his tough choice of subject. He warned his family he might have to leave university and choose a musical education. But he stayed on and came back home with a good grade.
Lee said that university taught him the need to dig deep to make the most of his potential (潛力), a useful lesson that he applies (運(yùn)用) every day in his show business career.
“Even if you aren’t talented at something, you can work hard to overcome it. Once you make that leap, it’s like an addiction (上癮)—you’ll want more challenges.’
29. When did Aarif Lee enter entertainment industry?
A. At 15. B. At 28. C. At 23. D. At 22.

I had a very special teacher in high school many years ago. Her husband died of a heart attack. About a week after his death, she shared some of her insights with us.
The class was nearly over. She said, “Before class is over, I would like to share with all of you an important thought.”
“Each of us is put here on Earth to learn, share, love, appreciate and give of ourselves. We must make the most out of every single day.”
Her eyes began to water and she went on, “So I would like you all to make me a promise. From now on, on your way to school, or on your way home, find something beautiful to notice. It doesn’t have to be something you see ? it could be a good smell or the sound of the gentle wind.”
“Please look for these things, and cherish them. They are what is in life. We must pay attention to noticing them, for at any time it can all be taken away.”
Every once in a while, I think of that teacher and try to appreciate all of those things that sometimes we don’t notice.
Take notice of something special you see on your lunch hour today. Walk along the beach at sunset. For as we get older, it is not the things we did that we regret, but the things we didn’t do.
33. In the author’s eyes, the high school teacher was ______.
A. special B. weak C. happy D. strict
34. The word “insight” in the first paragraph means ______.

It is all about excitement, speed, and entertainment. It is the biggest international event in winter sports—the Winter Olympic Games. Guess which city will be the host in 2022? The two candidates, Beijing (jointly with Zhangjiakou in Hebei) and Almaty in Kazakhstan are waiting to find out who will win the bid.
The International Olympic Committee Evaluation Commission (評(píng)估團(tuán)) visited Beijing and Zhangjiakou from March 24 to 28 to see whether the two cities meet the standards for hosting the Games. The final host city will be announced on July 31 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
“Our visit shows that Beijing is able to host a successful 2022 Olympic Winter Games,” said Alexander Zhukov, the chief of the commission.
Although Zhukov said the same thing about Almaty during his visit to the city earlier, “it seems that Beijing has a bigger chance”, commented Xinhua. If Beijing wins, it will be the first city in history to organize both summer and winter Olympic Games.
The nearly perfect organization of the 2008 Summer Games proved the city’s abilities, according to the report. The city would make use of venues (比賽地點(diǎn)) and infrastructures (基本設(shè)施) constructed back then for the Winter Games, showing a spirit of sustainable (可持續(xù)的) development. Beijing plans to host most of the ice events, including figure skating, speed skating and ice hockey, in six existing venues including the Water Cube aquatics center.
Snow events will be held in Chongli County in Zhangjiakou. The county, about an hour’s ride from Beijing, has over four months’ snowfall a year, which would provide enough snow for the competitions. The high forest coverage makes snow remain easier. Moreover, the average winter temperature there is suitable for the Winter Olympic Games.
But a problem may get in the way—smog (霧霾). It will be a disadvantage for Beijing.
Competition for holding the Olympics is always strong, because it influences the host city and its people deeply.
“If Beijing wins, it will help improve transportation infrastructure in the two cities and reduce Beijing’s air pollution,” said Beijing mayor Wang Anshun. Around 600,000 more jobs will be created. The events will also encourage more young people to take part in winter sports.
37. Where will snow events be probably held according to the report?
A. In Beijing. B. In Almaty. C. In Zhangjiakou. D. In Kazakhstan.
38. What is the biggest challenge for Beijing to host the Winter Olympic Games?
A. Venues and infrastructures. B. Experience.
C. People’s support. D. pollution.
39. What will the Winter Olympic Games NOT bring to Beijing?
A. More and more people will have chances to find jobs.
B. More and more teenagers will be interested in winter sports.
C. Beijing still needs to build more venues and infrastructures for the Games.
D. The traffic situation between Beijing and Zhangjiakou will be greatly improved.
40. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. It takes about one hour to ride a bike to Chongli from Beijing.
B. Winning the Olympic bid won’t influence local people’s lives.
C. Beijing will be the only city which hosts the Olympic Games twice.
D. The city for hosting the 2022 Winter Olympic Games hasn’t been decided.

Benjamin Franklin is one of the greatest miracles in American history. Although he never received a formal education, he made important contributions in many fields, including literature, journalism, science, diplomacy and education.
Early Years
Franklin, one of seventeen children, was born in Boston on January 6, 1706. After leaving school at the age of ten, he spent two years working for his father before learning printing from his elder brother. When he was seventeen, Franklin left Boston and traveled to Philadelphia, hoping to open his own print shop. Once he worked as a printer, Franklin began producing a newspaper and an annual magazine called Poor Richard's Almanack. It was very popular and people considered him as a talented writer.
Man of science
When Franklin was forty-two, he left his printing business to devote himself to science. He proved to be successful again. During his lifetime, Franklin invented the lightning rod (避雷針) and a new type of stove, confirmed the laws of electricity and contributed to the scientific understanding of earthquakes. With all these achievements, Franklin is best remembered for his career in politics.
Statesman and Diplomat
Franklin played an important role in drafting (起草) the Declaration of Independence《獨(dú)立宣言》, won French support during the War and drafted the United States Constitution (憲法). In his later years, he was ambassador (大使) first to England and then to France. Even before President Washington, Franklin was considered "The father of his country".
Franklin wrote the first part of The Autobiography in 1771 at the age of sixty-five. Though never completed, his Autobiography, full of his own opinions and suggestions, provides not only a record of his achievements but also an understanding of his character.
