One morning, Wu Li discovered that her classroom had changed. She found that the desks were no longer in rows(排), but pushed together to make eight bigger desks. She was too excited about it for the first two days and she couldn’t listen to the teachers carefully. But soon she and her classmates got used to this new classroom arrangement (安排). “Now our class is quieter,” said Wu. “What’s more, we can come up with our own ideas and learn more through discussion. It’s a better way to study.”
Li Yu liked it, too. He said, “Group members first discuss, and then show ourselves in front of the whole class. It makes us believe in ourselves.” It was part of a reform (改革) at Li’s school—Baita Secondary School. The school made this reform because they wanted to provide students with easier ways to study and more chances to discuss. “Our school hopes it can improve students’ abilities (能力) to study by themselves and work in groups,” said Zhang Yong, the principal of the school.
However, the reform has demanded (要求) more from teachers. Now they have only about 15 minutes to give the lesson which should be taught in 45 minutes before. It is difficult to teach in such a short time. The teachers have to find better ways to teach more effectively.
“The reform demands more, but I’m sure it is helpful,” added Mr Zhang.
【小題1】After the new classroom arrangement it was easier for Wu Li and her classmates to ______ in class.

A.discuss with each other B.sit in the classroom
C.push desks together D.teach a lesson
【小題2】The school made the reform to provide students with _______ to study.
A.noisier classes B.easier ways C.more seats D.fewer chances
【小題3】The Chinese meaning of the word “effectively” in this passage is _________.
A.簡單地 B.明確地 C.有效地 D.認(rèn)真地
【小題4】The teachers __________ after the reform.
A.have to find better ways to teach
B.find it easier to teach
C.spend 45 minutes explaining to the students
D.a(chǎn)re happy to explain for only 15 minutes
【小題5】The best title of this passage may be “________”.
A.Students’ Friendship B.Teachers’ Hope
C.Discussion in Class D.New Look in Class


【小題1】A
【小題2】B
【小題3】C
【小題4】A
【小題5】D

In America, seldom do you go anywhere without hearing a principle called WIN-WIN. It sounds strange to me at first because throughout my childhood, I have always been taught to try everything possible to win an upper-hand, rather than to help other people win. However, as time goes by, I have gradually understood the essence (真諦) of WIN-WIN principle—it is the way of winning on both sides.
When I was little, I used to play Chinese checkers (跳棋) which includes two basic tactics (戰(zhàn)術(shù)): One is to create paths for yourself; the other is to prevent your rival﹙對手﹚ moving. Players may use these two totally different ways in the game, but the key for the player to win is to continuously create paths for him even if his rival may take advantage of it. Finally he can always reach the goal a few steps ahead of the other player.
In the 1990s, a strategy﹙戰(zhàn)略﹚ called WIN-WIN became widespread in the western world. Its aim is to achieve your success while giving other people some advantages, so there is no real loser. One example of using the WIN-WIN principle is the voluntary system in the US. Most Americans support the spirit of voluntary contribution. In the US, schools and children organizations usually encourage and support kids to take part in community activities so that the voluntary spirit can be enrooted in their minds from childhood.
In China, it’s quite usual that some people are too selfish and never take people’s interests into consideration, while someone who really has courage to do something for the public is often called “foolish” or “silly”. Actually helping other people can be of great delight for the helper, for he can also learn something useful for his life such as sympathy, care, devotion, etc. So only if you take other people’s interests into consideration , you can make sure to win what you want.
【小題1】The purpose of the author in writing the passage is _______.

A.to tell us the cultural differences between China and the US.
B.to tell us the different educational systems in the US and China.
C.to tell us the importance and meaning of WIN-WIN.
D.to show that WIN-WIN is popular in the US and China.
【小題2】What is the author’s attitude(態(tài)度) towards WIN-WIN?
A.Criticism(批評).B.Encouragement.
C.Disagreement.D.Doubt.
【小題3】The underlined word “enrooted” in the third paragraph means ____.
A.removedB.controlled
C.plantedD.influenced

The father’s role in the family is important. One researcher says babies who are cared for by their fathers have greater cognitive (認(rèn)知的) development at one year of age than babies not cared for by their fathers. Another researcher reports that by spending time with their pre-school children, fathers can help to develop children’s language ability. Researchers also point out that for school-age children, fathers are one bridge with the outside world.
Fathers who value (重視) education have children who do better in school than those children whose fathers don’t value education. What’s more, fathers who spend quality time with their children may give their children happy memories which may last a lifetime.
While each father is a unique person who educates children in his own style, good fathers have something in common.
Good fathers attend their children’s school activities. They also involve the children in their lives and the adult world by taking them to see the workplace, or by taking them when the car needs to be repaired, etc.
Good fathers expect a great deal from their children, but also accept and support the unique individuals (個(gè)體) that their children are becoming.
Good fathers prefer explanations and reasoning to force.
Good fathers know their time with children is really an investment (投資) in them.
Being an involved father is good for children and good for fathers. Both children and fathers have the chance for growth and development. Today’s lifestyles are changing. More and more fathers are keeping a balance between their personal life, work, and family time.   
【小題1】According to the passage, we can find that          .

A.fathers have an important influence on their children from babyhood through adulthood
B.fathers’ involvement (介入) is the most important in children’s development
C.a(chǎn)ll fathers have the same way of educating their children
D.fathers are more important than mothers in the family
【小題2】A unique person in the third paragraph means “a person who            ”.
A.has the same ideas as others
B.is the only one of his type
C.does everything without considering others’ ideas
D.tries to do everything well

A.Good fathers attend their children’s school activities but never take them to their workplace.
B.Good fathers expect a great deal from their children and force them to work hard.
C.Good fathers try to make it clear to their children that staying with their fathers is an investment.
D.Good fathers improve themselves when they spend time with their children.

Confidence is very important in daily life. It can help you to develop a healthy attitude. A study shows that the people who are more confident are much happier. They can have more chance to make themselves successful. But how to be more confident? Here are some suggestions:
Speak loud   When you are not confident, you can’t do well what you want to do. You speak in a voice so low that other people can hardly hear you. Try to speak loud enough so that people can hear you clearly. The high voice can help you become more confident.
Play sports   Physical exercise makes you tired but completely relaxed. A strong body helps you be full of confidence.
Encourage yourself  Write down a list of things you did during the day to see how many things you have done well. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh? Give yourself praise for the good things you’ve done.
Get rid of (消除) fear  Fear comes along with failure. But it’s easy to overcome (克服) if you know that failure is part of your life. Don’t hide your head just because you said something stupid last time. Try to start again and believe you can do better.
