23、 In an American classroom, a Chinese girl was asked to answer a question. She stood up and smiled, without making any sound. The American teacher looked at himself and didn't see anything funny. So he asked her the question again. The girl just smiled but said nothing. The teacher was angry. He didn't know that the girl smiled to cover her embarrassment (尴尬) because she wasn't able to answer the question.

In a dining room in Beijing, an Englishman was careless and dropped a plate. The Chinese who had seen this began to laugh. The Englishman felt uncomfortable and even got angry. "They are laughing at me," he thought. In fact, the Chinese laughed not at the Englishman or his bad luck--whether he is a foreigner or a Chinese. The laughter has several feelings, don't take it so seriously; laugh it off, it's nothing; such things can happen to any of us, etc.

22、 Reading is a good habit, but the problem is, there's too much to read these days, and too little time to read every word of it. There are hundreds of skills to help you read more in less time. Here are two skills that I think are especially good. Preview--if it's long and hard. Previewing is especially useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading like long magazine articles and business reports.

Here's how to preview.

●Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully.

●Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs.

Previewing doesn't give you all the details. It keeps you from spending time on things you don't really want--or need--to read.

Skim--if it's short and simple. Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading --like popular magazines or the sports and entertainment of your daily paper.

Here's how to skim.

●Get your eyes to move fast. Sweep them across each line.

●Pick up only a few key words in each line.

Everybody skims differently. You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same piece, but we'll get a similar idea of what it's all about.

1. How many skills are recommended in this passage?

A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.

2. What does the underlined word "preview" mean in Chinese?

A.精读 B.默读 C.朗读 D.略读

3. What should we NOT do when we read sports news in a daily paper according to the passage?

A. Read the last two paragraphs carefully. B. Get our eyes to move fast.

C. Sweep our eyes across each line. D. Pick up only a few key words in each line.

4. What is the best title for this passage?

A. How to read faster B. What to read C. When to read D. Why we should read

21、

Fifteen is such an awful(糟糕的)age, I should know. I really wish I were eighteen. If you are an adult, you can be your own boss. People like my parents and my teachers are always telling me what to do. You know what I mean. "It's time for bed, Sandy." Or "Sandy, you've watched too much TV for one night." "Sandy, stand up straight." "Sandy, you must improve your handwriting." Sandy this, Sandy that. No one tells adults when they go to bed or not to watch TV. Besides, adults get to wear what they like... Now it's going to be great to be an adult. Don't you agree?

I'm Sandy's mother. Having a fifteen-year-old daughter isn't always easy. Right now, we've got a problem. Our neigh hour, Mrs. White, wants Sandy to look after her pet dog for one week. Sandy really wants to do it, but (I ). She's too young and inexperienced. Well, I will never be able to relax knowing she is all alone with a dog. I've tried to explain my feelings to her, but she won't listen. She keeps telling me that the Whites live very near, so she can ask for help. She insists that Mrs. White won't ask her to look after her pet dog if she doesn't think Sandy is old enough. She says I'm "babying" her and I hate to see her mad at me. What should I do?

1. Sandy is fifteen years old and she wishes to be her own_______.

2. Sandy thinks her parents and her teachers are always telling her what to do. Give an example.

3．将文中括号内的英文句子补充完整。

4．将划线句子She says I'm "babying" her and I hate to see her mad at me.译成汉语。

5. Should Sandy look after Mrs. White's pet dog? Why or why not?
