It is the British Museum. Being one of the largest museums in the world, it is home to over 7 million objects from all the world’s continents. While most of us may not have the opportunity to visit London, we can catch a glimpse of the treasures it holds in Beijing. More than 100 cultural relics will be on display in the Palace Museum. Named “Britain and the World”, a range of pencil sketches (素描), watercolor paintings, sculptures and many other objects have traveled to China.
There will be several Chinese objects on show. But “they were obtained by the British Museum before 1830 mainly by trade,” said Ma Jige, deputy director of the Exhibition Department of the Palace Museum.
In fact, there are more than 23,000 Chinese relics in the British Museum, including national treasures like gems (宝石), artwork and ancient bronze ware objects.
The museum is famed for its exquisite Chinese paintings. Picture of Lady Officials (《女史箴图》) by Gu Kaizhi, a top painter of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD 317-420), is there. The British Museum also holds 13,700 Buddhist records from the Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province.

Anther habit that some animals have to survive the cold winter is called hibernation. Animals that hibernate, rest or sleep during the winter. While they are hibernating, their bodies use up the fat layer that they have put on by eating large amounts of food during the summer. Some animals that hibernate in the Arctic are small animals called lemmings(旅鼠), squirrels(松鼠)and bears.
There are two habit adaptations that animals in the Arctic have all year round. These are called herding and pack life. Caribou are example of animals that live in herds. A herd is a group of animals that lives together for most, or all of their lives. A herd of caribou can have a thousand or more animals in it. They live in herds for protection. It is easier for caribou to protect themselves when they are together than it is when they are alone. This is because the meat-eaters hunt in packs.
A pack is a small group of animals that lives together. It is usually controlled by a head male and a female. All the members of the pack must obey them. Packs have a very definite social structure. Each animal in a pack has a different position, or importance. Animals in a pack are usually meat-eaters. They live together for protection and hunting purposes.
小题1:According to the first paragraph, the humpback whale .
A.travels to the Arctic for shrimp in summer |
B.spends the winter in the Arctic |
C.lives in Hawaii in summer |
D.has the same living habits as the caribou |
A.The caribou. | B.The bear. | C.The squirrel. | D.The lemming. |
A.use up their fat layer | B.find food | C.protect themselves | D.hunt in packs |
A.Animals in pack are usually grain-eaters. |
B.All animals are in an equal position in a pack. |
C.It is either controlled by a head mate or by a female. |
D.Each animal has its own different role in a pack. |
Children with hearing impairments(损伤)suffer most from noisy classrooms. They sometimes can’t hear questions that other students ask in class. Compared with kids with healthy hearing, they have a harder time picking up new vocabulary words by hearing them in talking.
Even kids with normal hearing have a harder time in the classroom when there’s too much noise. Younger children in particular have trouble separating important sounds – like a teacher’s voice – from background noise. Kids with learning disabilities and speech impediments(障碍)and kids for whom English is a second language also have a harder time learning in noisy situations.
In recent years, scientists who study sound have been asking schools to reduce background noise, which may include loud air-conditioners and pipes. They’re also targeting outdoor noises, such as highway traffic. Noise reduction is a big deal. Why? Because quieter classrooms might make you smarter by letting you hear your lessons better.
“It’s so obvious that we should have quiet rooms that allow for access to the lesson,” says Dan Ostergren, a hearing scientist. “Sometimes it surprises me that we spend so much time discussing this topic. I just want to go. Why is this hard for anyone to grasp?”
小题1: The underlined part “goofing off” in the first paragraph can be replaced by “ ”.
A.lazy | B.intelligent | C.sleepy | D.foolish |
A.Children with learning disabilities. | B.Children with hearing impairments. |
C.Children with speech impediments. | D.Children with normal hearing. |
A.Quiet classrooms are suitable for kids to have discussions. |
B.Quiet classrooms help kids recover from hearing impairments. |
C.Kids can become smarter after hearing lessons better. |
D.Kids can’t separate sounds of air-conditioners and pipes. |
A.Noisy classrooms | B.Classroom design |
C.The sense of hearing | D.Disabled kids |
Second, it is quite rude to talk with a friend in your native language and leave your American friends standing there feeling stupid because they can’t understand the conversation. The Americans may also feel that you are talking about them or saying something you don’t want them to hear. If you must turn to your native language to explain something to a non-English-speaking friend, at least translate for your American friends so they don’t feel left out.
Learn just a few more polite English expressions, and you’ll be ready to face the world of Americans with confidence. The polite answer to a compliment(赞扬) about your looks or your works is “Thank you.” (A smile and a nod is not enough.) The response to “Thank you.” is, of course, “You’re welcome,” if someone asks “How are you?” don’t give your medical history. Just say “Fine, thanks. How are you?” Finally, what should you say when someone sneezes(打喷嚏)? It may not seem logical, but the correct response is “God bless you.” That’s about all there is to it. Now that you’ve learned this general knowledge of manners, in the U. S. A., you’ve ready to be polite in English. Let’s hope your American friends will be just as polite.
小题1:In the first paragraph, the underlined word “annoyed” means .
A.rather angry | B.very impolite | C.quite unfriendly | D.fairly pleased |
A. the importance of good manners B. the general knowledge of English
C. the skill in daily conversations D. the good manners in communication
小题3: When you talk with someone in your native language, your American friend may feel .
A.he should learn the language | B.you try to keep some secrets from him |
C.you are angry with him | D.he becomes a fool |
Some countries have banned Chinese-made toothpaste containing diethylamide glycol. China has now told companies to discontinue its use, even though it says the toothpaste is safe. Another industrial chemical, melamine, was found in wheat flour used to make pet food in North America. Thousands of dogs and cats became sick.
The United States has restricted some imports of Chinese seafood because they contained banned substance. And questions have been raised about other products, including children’s toys covered with lead paint.
Chinese officials promised to provide the European Union, the biggest trading partner, with detailed reports on enforcement efforts against unsafe goods.
Meglena Kuneva, commissioner (理事) for consumer protection of the European Union said China should have kept its promise.
China recently closed three companies linked to the Panama and the pet food scare. And it dismissed the former head of its food and drug administration. He was found guilty of corruption (腐败) for approving unsafe drugs. This week, a conference of the State Council approved a proposed special measure on the supervision of food safety. The Xinhua News Agency said it calls for stronger controls over producers, greater responsibilities for government and more serious punishment for illegal activities.
But Chinese officials have accused some foreign media of overstating problems with goods made in China. They say food imports from the United States also fail inspection sometimes. Next Week, American and Chinese food safety officials are planning to hold 5 days of meetings in Beijing to discuss cooperation.
小题1:How many cases with safety problems are mentioned in the passage?
A.Six | B.Five | C.Four | D.Three |
A.Three companies linked to it were closed down.
B.The former head of food and drug administration was removed from his position.
C.More serious punishment was conducted for leaders linked to it.
D.Both A and B.
小题3:It can be implied but not clearly stated that ________.
A.Chinese- made toothpaste is safe |

A.China | B.The European Union |
C.Chinese officials | D.The Chinese company |
Americans also show this friendliness in “small talk”. Small talk is a casual conversation that Americans engage in when they meet on the street, in the shop or in the office before a meeting. Usually the topics of such small talk will be something that everyone is familiar with, the weather, sports, traffic, hobbies or what’s on television. The topic of the conversation is not as important as the effort make to spend a few minutes with the other person. Small talk shows that you are a considerate person who is interested in others and who is willing to take the time to get to know people.
Small talk is used in the business world to create a friendly atmosphere and to put everyone at ease before the serious matters of business are discussed. Often businessmen will spend a few minutes talking about the weather or sports before a meeting. This form of small talk only lasts a few minutes before the American businessman wants to “get down to business.”
Asians are very skilled at making casual conversation. However, they often find it difficult to make small talk with Americans because they don’t know what to say, how to say it and who to say it to. Americans may see Asians who are reluctant to make small talk as unfriendly and cold.
小题1: American people ask others how it is going because .
A.they are curious about others’ affairs |
B.they are eager to help others |
C.they want to start a long conversation |
D.they only want to show their kindness |
A.so that everyone present will feel relaxed |
B.in order that everyone will be warned against the possible bad weather |
C.because weather is very important to American people |
D.in order to make people fresh |
A.willing | B.eager | C.unwilling | D.skilled |
A.You should keep the conversation short. |
B.Asians are not friendly and don’t like to talk with others |
C.“To get down to business” means to start the work. |
D.The topics of the small talk are not very important. |
