In China, I had English classes five times a week since fifth grade. However, I didn’t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.
When I first studied English, I was told to say, “I am fine.” when people say “How are you?” But in the US, I found that people say, “I am good.” or “I’m tired.”
One day, someone greeted me with “What’s up?” It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.
Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.
To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan. However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter.” I also surprised by how hard-working US students are. In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard and that’s it. But here, a “good” student gets good grades, does a lot for the public and plays sports or music.
The kids here are so talented, I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports.
小题1: What does the word “tan” in the sixth paragraph mean in Chinese?
A.晒黑 | B.晒白 | C.能量 | D.保护 |
A.only in doing homework |
B.only on sports |
C.only on music |
D.on studies, sports or music and public work |
A.The writer is now in US. |
B.American girls love to have white skin. |
C.American girls love to have brown skin. |
D.US students are talented and hard-working. |
A.My Own Travel in the US |
B.My Studying in the US |
C.My Opinion about the US |
D.My Studying in China |
Country music usually talks of everyday life and feelings. It’s the spirit of America, easy to understand, slow and simple.
Country music developed in the Southern United States. It was the folk music of American countryside. Many of songs tell about the lives of famers .They talk about love, crops or death.
The life of the countryside can be hard, so the words in country music are often sad. At first, people played the music only at family parties. But it became more popular later. In the 1920s, people played country songs on the radio, and they made them into records.
When people in the countryside moved to towns and cities to look for work, they took their music with them. Country music continued to change and became popular across America.
John Denver was one of America’s most famous country singers in the 1970s.His song “Take Me home, Country Roads” is well-known and people still play it today.
小题1:Country music is usually about _______.
A.everyday life and feelings |

C.the lives of workers |
D.the lives of farmers |
A.in the 1920s | B.in 1920 |
C.in the 1970s | D.in 1970 |
A.Because city people liked the music. | |
B.Because farmers moved to cities with their music and it continued to change. | C.Because country music talked about city people’s lives. |
D.Because country music developed in the Southern Africa |
A.A farmer in the countryside. |

D.John Denver’s brother |
Now, some similar digital products advertised as “MP4 player” are simply MP3 players, which do not play video and MPEG format and also lack other particular functions. These products confuse some buyers, as they may think the “MP4” players simply mean they can do more than MP3.
What is MP4?
It is a multimedia container. It is not only used to store digital audio and digital video streams, especially those of MPEG, but can also be used to store other data such as subtitles and pictures. As a most modern container format, it allows streaming over the Internet.
With the help of a piece of MP4 video equipment, you can change various programs such as MPEG to MP4, ASX to MP4, AVI to MP4 and so on, which can be done very quickly and easily without any effect on the sound quality. By installing DVD-MP4 software, you can transfer particular music from a DVD to an MP4 video file. It really excites your listening music experience.
Then, there is MP4 advanced and you can set your own collection of all the programs—TV shows, games, and music. You can even see movies which are still running in cinema. What else digital product could you possibly ask for?
小题1:. It is suggested here that you should ______ before buying an MP4 player.
A.first be a music fan | B.have a knowledge of MP4 |
C.get familiar with MP3 | D.buy a CD-like disc |
A.much bigger than | B.just as advanced as |
C.not so particular as | D.more functional than |
A.Storing digital audio and video streams.
B.Recording some movies in cinema.
C.Playing TV shows, games and movies.
D.Transferring particular music from a DVD.
小题4:.From the last sentence, it’s clear that the writer tries to tell us it is ______.
A.reasonable to buy other digital products |
B.impossible to buy something else |
C.a very wise choice to buy an MP4 |
D.an exciting experience to buy an MP3 |
Colouring, for example, varies according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packaged(包装)in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colours. Ice cream packets(包装) are often blue and expensive goods, like chocolates, are gold or silver.
When some kind of pain-killer (止痛药) was brought out recently, researchers found that the colours turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective. Eventually, it came on the market in a dark blue and white package — blue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.
The size of a product can attract a shopper. But quite often a bottle doesn’t contain as much as it appears to.
It is believed that the better-known companies spend, on average, 70 percent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging!
The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The founder of Pears Soap, who for 25 year has used pretty little girls to promote(促销)their goods, came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap, but it takes a genius(天才) to sell it.”
小题1:. Which of the following may trick a shopper into buying a product according to the text?
A.The cost of its package | B.The price of the product |
C.The colour of its package | D.The brand name of the product |
A.attracted the customers strongly | B.had weak effects on the customers |
C.tricked the customers into shopping | D.caused the customers to lose interest |
A.The way to promote goods. | B.The team to produce a good product |
C.The discovery of a genius. | D.The brand name used by successful producers. |
A.Choice of Good Products. | B.Disadvantages of Products. |
C.Effect of Packaging on Shopping. | D.Brand Name and Shopping Tricks. |
When we see something we don’t like, we wish it could be different -- we cry out for something better. That may be human nature, or perhaps it’s something that’s ingrained(根深蒂固的)in our culture.
The root of unhappiness is that we decided we didn’t like it in the first place. We’ve judged it as bad, rather than saying, “It’s not bad or good, as it just is.”
An example: in my recent post(帖子), A Beautiful Method to Find Peace of Mind, quite a few commentators thought my outlook was negative, pessimistic, or fatalistic(听天由命的)... because I said you should expect people to mess up, expect things to go differently from what you planned. Above all, you should embrace that.
It’s too negative to expect something to go wrong, they said. However, I think it’s only negative if you see it as negative, or if you judge it as bad.
Instead, you could accept it as the way the world works -- as the way things actually are. And try to understand why they are that way.
Does it mean you can never change things? Not at all. But changing things is not because you can’t accept things as they are, but because you enjoy the process of change of learning and growing.
Can we make this world a better place? Again, that’s an assumption that it’s a bad place fight now. But instead, you could say the world is just what it is -- and that’s neither good nor bad. You can say that you’ll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a person, to make a difference in this world -- not because you’re such a bad person now, but because that’s the path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path.
As you catch yourself judging, and wishing for different -- try a different approach: accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting results.
小题1: Which of the following statements is correct according to the author?
A.We can never change things because we can’t accept them. |
B.We shouldn’t try to do whatever we can to help others and make a difference. |
C.It’s wrong of you to expect things to go differently. |
D.There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so. |
A.The world is a good place for us to live in. |
B.Unhappiness comes from what we want to be different. |
C.You might as well accept the world as it is and try to embrace it. |
D.Let’s make the world more beautiful. |
A.A novel. | B.A news story. | C.A travel guide. | D.A magazine. |
