【題目】 One day, I heard an American boy say to a Chinese girl student, “You speak very good English.” But the girl answered, “No, no. My English is very poor.” The foreigner was quite surprised ________ the answer. Thinking he had not made ________ understood or the girl had not listened to him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak very well.” But the girl still kept saying: “No, no.” This time the American boy could not understand and didn’t know ________ to say.
What’s wrong with the girl’s answer? She didn’t ________ a compliment (恭維) in the same way as the American people do. She should answer, “Thank you” instead of “No”. She ________ did understand what the American boy said, but she thought she should be modest (謙虛的). In the ________, people will feel proud (驕傲) and ________ when they are praised (表揚). So if someone says the dishes you cooked are very delicious, you should say, “Thank you.”
In our country we think being modest is a virtue (美德) and being proud is a bad thing. But in my opinion, being confident does not mean being proud, so sometimes you should be confident ________ being modest.

【題目】 Only a few Europeans lived in North America in the 16th century. Most of them settled (定居) on the northeast coast. In 1587, a small group of about 100 people decided to go south. They moved to the small island of Roanoke. That area later became part of the state of North Carolina.
Unfortunately, the Roanoke settlers weren’t well prepared. They didn’t have enough food for the winter, and there wasn’t enough grain for future crops. Their leader, Captain White, decided to sail back to England to get supplies. However, there was a war in Europe, and three years passed before he returned to North America.
When Captain White came back to Roanoke in 1590, he was eager to see the settlers. He looked out from his ship, but no one was there to meet him. There were no signs of life. The settlement was empty.
No one knows why the Roanoke settlers disappeared. Many people thought that hostile Native Americans killed them, but there were no signs of a fight. Some thought that the settlers died from hunger or disease, but they couldn’t explain the absence of bodies.
Many years later, more settlers came to North Carolina. One of them met a Native American group called the Lumbee. They were unusual looking compared to the black-haired, brown-eyed Native Americans in the north. Some Lumbee had blonde hair and gray eyes. Then he listened to their speech and almost fell off his horse. They seemed to speak an unusual kind of English.
He asked where they were from. None of them knew, but they said that their grandparents “talked from a book.” Did they mean that their grandparents were able to read? As he rode back home, he asked himself a question: Were the Lumbee people the descendants(后裔)of the Roanoke settlers?
People are still asking the same question. Because there are no written records, we can’t be certain. However, there is one interesting fact. Today, some of the Lumbee people have names like Sampson, Dare, and Cooper. They are the same as the names of the vanished settlers of Roanoke Island.
【1】Captain White returned to Roanoke after three years because ______________.
A.there was a war in Europe.B.they didn’t have enough food.
C.there were no signs of life in the settlement.D.the area became part of the state of North Carolina.
【2】According to the following signs EXCEPT ___________, the Lumbee may be the descendants of the Roanoke settlers.
A.They had the same names as the disappeared settlers
B.They seemed to speak an unusual kind of English.
C.Their grandparents might be able to read.
D.They had black hair and brown eyes.
【3】What does the underlined word hostile in paragraph 4 mean?
A.braveB.strongC.unfriendlyD.unlucky
【4】According to the fifth paragraph, why did one of the settlers almost fall off his horse?
A.Because some Lumbee’s looking was so unusual that it frightened him.
B.Because some Lumbee spoke an unusual English just like the disappeared settlers.
C.Because some Lumbee’s English was so unusual that he couldn’t understand them.
D.Because the Lumbee told him that they were the descendants of the Roanoke settlers.
【5】What’s the best title of the passage?
A.The brave EuropeansB.The unusual Lumbee
C.The disappeared settlersD.The small island of Roanoke
