Young people and older people don’t always agree. They sometimes have different ideas about living, working and playing. But in one special programme in New York State, adults and teenagers live together in a friendly way. Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work group. Everyone works several hours each day. They do so not just to keep busy but to find meaning and enjoyment in work. Some teenagers work in the woods or on the farms near the village. Some learn to make things like tables and chairs and build houses. The adults teach them these skills. There are several free hours each day. Weekends are free, too. During the free hours some of the teenagers learn photo taking or painting. Others sit around and talk or sing. Each teenager chooses his own way to spend his free time. When people live together, rules are necessary. In this programme the teenagers and the adults make the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the problem goes before the whole group. They talk about it and ask, “Why did it happen? What should we do about it?” One of the teenagers has this to say about his experience, “You stop thinking only about yourself; you learn to think about the group.” 小题1:In one special programme in New York State, young and older people _______ .A.don’t work well together. | B.are friendly to one another. | C.teach one another new ways of building houses. | D.spend eight weeks together, working as farmers.. | 小题2:All the members work some time every day mainly to _______ .A.lead a busy life. | B.learn new skills of farming; | C.get used to the life on the farms | D.find value and pleasure in work | 小题3:Living together, _________ .A.the teenagers don’t have to obey the rules | B.the teenagers have to obey the rules the adults make | C.the members have no free time on weekends | D.the members are not allowed to break the rules they make together | 小题4:The last programme shows that the teenager thinks his experience in the programme is ____ .A.unpleasant | B.tiring | C.helpful | D.boring | 小题5:The best title for the passage is __________ .A.The rules of living together | B.Life in New York State | C.Teenagers in the special group | D.Free hours in the special work group |

During my second year of nursing school, our teacher gave us a quiz (小测验). I was a hardworking student and I did well 26 all the subjects. I finished the questions successfully until I read the last one, “What is the first name of the 27 who cleans the school?” I saw the cleaning woman every day. She is short and about 60 years old. She has dark hair. But 28 would I know her name? I have 29 talked with her before. In fact, I’ve never even thought about talking to her! I stared at (盯着) my paper and started to feel rather guilty (惭愧的). Finally, I handed in my paper 30 writing the answer to the last question. Before the class ended, one student 31 the teacher if the last question would count (计入) into our grade. “In your life,” the teacher said, “you will meet many people. All are 32 .

Shyness(害羞) means feeling frightened when you’re around other people. Some children were 1 shy. Some become very shy later because of their life experience. 2, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just how much they feel shy. Most people have red faces and talk in 3 sentences when they are shy. But some become 4 shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to 5 and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting 6 people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be 7 for a person. If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a big 8. Some experts(专家) say shy people are good at working because they think more and 9 less. But remember not to let good opportunities(机会) pass you just because of it.
