“How far is the next village？” the American asks a man standing by the edge of the road. In some countries, because the man realizes that the traveler is tired and eager to reach his destination (目的地), he will politely say “Just down the road.” He thinks this is more encouraging, gentler, and therefore the wanted answer. So the American drives through the night, getting more and more angry, feeling “being tricked”. He thinks the man on purpose lied to him, for obviously he must have known the distance quite well.

Had conditions been reversed (颠倒过来), the American would have felt he was “cheating” the driver if he had said the next town was not too far, and if he would be sorry to the weary driver, he would say “You have a good way to go yet, it is at least fifteen miles.” The driver might be disappointed, but he would know what to expect.

Whether to be accurate or polite leads to many misunderstandings between people of different cultures. If you know the situation in advance, it is sometimes easier to recognize the problem.

（1） The man at the roadside tells the American it is not far from the next village because he ________.

A . wants to encourage him to go further B . doesn't know the exact distance at all C . wants to help the man to decide whether to stop and have a rest D . tries to play a trick on him
（2） We can learn from this passage that Americans ________.

A . are polite to anybody B . like to be honest and accurate C . often lie to others D . have no sympathy to others
（3） If you ask an American how far it is from the next village, he will ________.

A . give you an accurate answer if he knows the distance B . say that he doesn't know but he will encourage you to go on C . decide whether you are tired or not, and then tell you D . tell you politely it is close though he knows it isn't
（4） The short passage advises us to ________.

A . learn some customs of America B . tell the truth to Americans more than to the people from other countries C . be polite to those who understand you well D . decide whether to be polite or accurate according to the customs

As a winner of the NSLI-Y Scholarship in high school, and then the Critical Language Scholarship in college, I lived in China for two summers with host families, studying Chinese for nine hours a day. Tack on to that the approximately 2,000 classroom hours I spent learning Chinese as an undergraduate, and it seems fair to say that a small fortune of resources has been invested in my Chinese ability.

Yet even with so much practice, I am not still achieving fluency, and it's unclear whether I'll use my language skills regularly in my career. This leads me to reflect: What is it that drives me to drill tones and memorize characters?

Many people are quick to point out the value of language skills in an increasingly competitive workforce. However, language is about much more than just the ability to communicate. Foreign language study is tied to increased levels of empathy (同理心)，enhanced cognitive development, and more creative insight on the human condition. Increasingly, research shows that these benefits also apply to those with exposure to multiple languages, and not just those who achieve fluency.

A beneficial future for the US and China will be built upon understanding, respect and recognition. Language exchange can provide cultural insight and strengthen the common ground we stand on.

It is not the economic potential of my language skills that leads me to persist. Studying Chinese is the most modest way I can think of to approach China, a nation with over 5 ,000 years of complex history. From this point, I have experienced the beauty, hospitality of China. And my experience of studying Chinese has helped me form a sense of curiosity and a commitment to understanding and respect-and that's a start.

（1） What do we know about the author?

A . He has worked hard at learning Chinese. B . He has won many scholarships in China. C . He began to learn Chinese in high school. D . He has enjoyed his life living in China.
（2） What does the author think of the language learning?

A . It just needs to drill tones and remember words. B . It needs the experience of living with a host family. C . It can promote learners' mental development. D . It is only used for effective communication.
（3） What can we infer from Paragraph 4?

A . The US and China will certainly have a bright future. B . The US and China always respect and recognize each other. C . Language exchange can help the US and China understand better. D . The US and China start to share the same cultural insight.
（4） Why does the author stick to learning Chinese?

A . To get some economic profits. B . To show off his language talent. C . To achieve the language fluency. D . To have a close look at China.

October 15th is the Global Handwashing Day. Activities are planned in more than 20 countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap（肥皂）. For example, donators（捐献者）will give 150,000 bars of soap to schools in Ethiopia.

Experts say people around the world wash their hands every day, but very few use soap at so-called important moments. These include after using the toilet, after cleaning a baby and before touching food.

Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing with Soap. Partners include the United Nations Children's Fund, American government agencies, the World Bank and soap makers Unlever and Procter and Gamble. The organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing disease-causing germ（细菌）. They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap. Rub it into all areas, including under the fingernails. Rub for at least twenty seconds. Then rinse well under running water. Finally, dry your hands with a clean cloth or wave them in the air.

The Partnership for Handwashing says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend in washing hands. Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs. And it usually leaves a pleasant smell. The Partnership for Handwashing also says washing with soap before eating or after using the toilet could save more lives than any vaccine（疫苗）or medicine. Hand washing could also prevent the spread of other diseases. When people get germs on their hands, they can infect（传染）themselves by touching their eyes, noses or mouths. Then they can infect others.

（1） What's the best title for this passage?

A . Find out why washing hands carefully is so important B . Hand washing: so important--it gets a day of its own C . Say no to washing hands in the wrong way D . Want to live a longer life?--wash your hands
（2） The word “rinse” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.

A . to dry your hands B . to rub your hands carefully C . to clean your fingers D . to wash away the soap
（3） The last paragraph mainly tells us ________.

A . how to wash your hands correctly B . why washing hand with soap is so important C . the dangers of washing hands without soap D . when we should especially wash our hands with soap
（4） In which part of newspaper would you most probably read this passage?

A . Advertisement. B . Public service. C . Medical care. D . Health report.

The ______ of constructing a village on the moon lies in the fact that it will help humans to explore the solar system further.

A . intelligence B . convenience C . significance D . independence

I start school when I was five. The classes were small and the teachers were friendly. At eleven I went to other school. Things didn’t go so well as before. I hated to study subjects such like biology and physics and I got terribly marks in tests. My parents tried to teach me which I didn’t understand, but it didn’t help. I got very worrying about my lessons. Even though I spent a lot of time review my lessons, I failed all the exams and had to take them again a few months late. That was the worst year of my school life. And I never gave up. Now I am proud my career as a successful engineer.

I took the Harvard Summer School program in my vacation. During my stay there, I spend a lot of time studying in the main library Widener. I enjoyed myself in the ocean of knowledges, either doing research for my papers or read special edition books. The library, which it is named after its donor Harry Widener, stands right next to the Emerson building of philosophy. Opening a pair of heavy yet elegant metal doors, I was immediate bathed in warm light. I wandered around the library, fascinating to find one treasure after other.

The library is a amazing place. One can fully experience the academic atmosphere only he visits the library. For me, the library as well as the courses explain Harvard’s place as the home of devoted scholars.
