阅读下面的短文,回答文后的五个问题。

  One thing Britain is famous for is pubs, and no trip to the UK would be complete without a visit to one of the thousands of pubs across the country.

  Pubs play an important part in the social structure of the country.They are places where all ages and social classes mixed to talk, do business, or just spend a couple of quiet hours before heading home in the evening.

  There are many different types of beer available in pubs.Traditional British beer is called bitter, or ale, and is usually served at room temperature.As a result, the British are famous for their warm beer!If you prefer a cold beer, ask for lager.This beer is a light yellow in colour whereas bitter is usually a darker brown.All beers are served as pints(500 ml)or halves(250 ml).To order, you need to ask for a pint or half, and then name the beer.So, you could say“________.”

  Wine, red or white, is normally available in all pubs, as are spirits such as whisky, gin or vodka.

  It is not, however, necessary to drink alcohol.Non-alcoholic drinks are called soft drinks.You can have juice, lemonade or cola, among others.

  If you visit a pub in a group, it is important to pay for your round’.This means that you buy a drink for everyone in your group.Not buying your round is a big social mistake!Remember that you need to order and pay for your drinks at the bar.

  So, follow these tips if you want to get the most out of visiting a pub, and,“cheers!”

[1]A program in the United States brings scientists and engineers into elementary schools to teach teachers more about how to teach science.

[2]Dave Weiss is a retired engineer. One day each week he volunteers at Georgian Forest Elementary School in Silver Spring, Maryland, near Washington. He works with teacher Fred Tenyke on science projects for ten years and gets as much pleasure from helping the teachers as he does helping the students.

[3]Student Jada Lockwood says she enjoys Mr. Weiss' visits to her classroom. She likes the drawings he uses to explain scientific ideas.

[4]The American Association for the Advancement of Science sponsors the Senior Scientists and Engineers program. Dave Weiss has been a volunteer in that program for many years. The scientists and engineers help teachers in elementary schools improve their skills.

[5]Mr. Weiss says he and the other volunteers help teachers by providing hands-on knowledge. He notes that science is an area in which many elementary school teachers have _________experience.In elementary school, for the most part, a regular classroom teacher is responsible for teaching science, along with reading and math, and if they don't have a strong science background, just by nature, they're going to tend to underrepresent science in the curriculum.

[6]American fifteen-year-olds scored about average in science among countries that took part in testing by the OECD in 2009. The OECD is the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

[7]Dave Weiss says he is concerned about such results, but hopeful for the future for American students learning science. Fred Tenkye thinks volunteers like Dave Weiss are helping students do that.

     阅读下面的短文并回答问题。(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
〔1〕"Everything happens for the best," my mother said whenever I faced disappointment.
" If you carry on, one day something good will happen. And you'll realize that it wouldn't have happened if not for that previous disappointment."
〔2〕Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a
job in radio, then work my way up to a sports announcer. I went to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station-and got turned down every time.
〔3〕In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn't risk hiring an inexperienced person. "Go out in the sticks and find a small station that'll give you a chance," she said.
〔4〕I returned home to Dixon, Illinois. While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father
said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department.
Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied. The job sounded just right for me.
But ______           _ .
〔5〕My disappointment must have shown. "Everything happens for the best," Mom reminded me. Dad
offered me the car to job hunt. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a
wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer.
〔6〕As I left his office, my frustration boiled over. I asked aloud, "How can a fellow get to be a sports
announcer if he can't get a job in a radio station?"
〔7〕I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, "What was that you said about
sports? Do you know anything about football?" Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to
broadcast an imaginary game. I got the job!
〔8〕On my way home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother's words: …
1. How did the writer discover that his mother was right? ( no more than 10 words )
______________________________________________________________________________
2. Fill in the blank with proper words in paragraph 4 to complete the sentence.

______________________________________________________________________________
3. Why did the writer say ''My disappointment must have shown'' in paragraph 5?
   Find details to support your idea.  ( no more than 20 words )
______________________________________________________________________________
4. Translate the underlined sentence in paragraph 1 into Chinese.

阅读下面的短文并回答问题(请注意问题后的词数要求) 。
                                                              A poet is in his words
     The writings of William Shakespeare are today little read by young people in Britain. His young readership
is limited to those who choose to study literature at university.
     Still, in British schools, _____ to study the poet, and when something is made compulsory, usually the
result is boredom, resentment or both. Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Jane Austen-for many of the young,
reading them can seem like being forced to eat medicine, especially when people are at an age when they are
beginning to discover themselves and wanting to claim their independence.
     This was my experience of the classics at school. But when I reached my late teenage years, I had a change
of heart. Like every other young person since the dawn of time, the world confused me. I wanted answers,
so I turned to books to find them.
     I went on to take a PhD in literature and have taught the subject in universities in Britain and China. I have
never regretted it. There is something in literature that people want, even if they don't read books.
     You see this in the popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works, the recent film version of Jane
Austen's Pride and Prejudice being a case in point. These popular adaptations may help increase people's interest
in the classic.
     Reading a simplified Romeo and Juliet may perhaps lead to a reading of Shakespeare's actual play. If that is
the case then I welcome the trend. But do not make the mistake of thinking that it is the same thing. Shakespeare
is a poet and his greatness is in his language. Reading someone else's rewriting of his work is like peeling (剥皮)
a banana, throwing away the fruit, and eating the skin.
Take on the original. It really is worth the effort.
1. Find a sentence from the text which can explain the title.
    _______________________________________________________________________________
2. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words to complete the sentence. (within 5 words) 
    _______________________________________________________________________________
3. Why are the adaptations of great works popular? 
    _______________________________________________________________________________
4. Do you think it necessary to read the original? Why? (within 30 words) 
    _______________________________________________________________________________
5. Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese. 
    _______________________________________________________________________________
