9.Ted,my little brother,is in Grade One.Last Friday he came back from school with a letter.The letter was from his teacher."I got a red flower today.Could you please sign签字 this note?"he said to Mum.The note showed that he had been talking in class.
Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work.The best he gets is"OK",but often he gets"You can do better than this."Mum knows what it means.She tells me"You can do better than this"means"Extremely bad"in China.
In the USA,teachers never say anything too bad about their students,even if the students are making trouble in class or not working hard enough.The worst they might say is"Please be nicer tomorrow".Many parents are satisfied with对---满意 a B-grade for each subject.
But things in Chinese schools are quite different.Parents have high expectations for their children.I sometimes felt that my second-grade cousin spent more time on homework than I did when I was a 6th grader in the USA!Yet his parents and teachers didn't think he worked hard enough.
Is it too strict in China?Or is it not strict enough in the USA?Maybe both are true.

56.Why did Ted come home with.a letter last Friday?B
A.Because the teacher wanted to visit his mother.
B.Because he did something wrong.
C.Because the teacher was happy with his progress.
D.Because the teacher thought he was too lazy.
57.If a student in the USA gets"OK"in his school work,it meansB.
A.he gets top scores
B.he gets medium scores
C.he gets extremely bad scores
D.he gets the worst scores
58.American parents will beD when their children get a B-grade in their school.
A.excited    
B.sad  
C.angry    
D.happy
59.The underlined words"high expectations"in this passage meansC.
A.很高的待遇  
B.很多的自由 
C.很高的期望    
D.很多的关爱
60.The writer mainly wants to tell usA.
A.the differences between Chinese education and American education
B.Chinese students are better than American students
C.American parents are not strict enough with their children
D.what the best way to educate children is.

分析 我的弟弟泰德读一年级.上周五他从学校回家带着一封信.信来自他的老师.泰德和妈妈说:"我今天得了一朵红花,你能在这记录上签字吗"记录上写着他在课堂上说话.
泰德很少功课上得高分.最好的是"OK",但是他经常得到的是:"你能比这次做的更好."妈妈知道那是什么意思,她告诉我:"你能比这次做的更好."在中国意味着:"很差."
在美国,老师从不说有关学生的太差的话,即使学生在课堂上制造麻烦或者不够努力.最糟的可能是说:"请明天好一点"许多家长对每一科是B很满意.
但是中国学校不同,父母对孩子有很高的期望.我有时感觉我二年级的表弟在学习上花的时间比我在美国六年级花的时间多,然而他的父母和老师还认为他不够努力.
在中国是不是太严格?或者是美国不够严格?也许两个都是正确的.

解答 56:答案:B.细节理解题.分析原句:The note showed that he had been talking in class.句意:信笺上写着,他已经在课堂上说话了.结合上文得知,他在学校做了错事,那就是在课堂乱说话.故选B
57:答案:B.推理理解题.分析原句:Ted hardly gets top scores in his school work.The best he gets is"OK".他得到最好的评语是"OK".联系下文,因为他的表现不好,所以他经常得到的是"你能做的比这次好."因此体现当学生在学校成绩中等的时候,评语为OK.故选 B
58:答案:D.细节理解题.分析原句:Many parents are satisfied with a B-grade for each subject.句意:孩子在学校得了B成绩,许多家长是满意的.与满意相近的词汇为happy.故选D
59:答案:C.词语理解题.分析原文:But things in Chinese schools are quite different.Parents have high expectations for their children.句意:但是,事情在中国的学校有很大的不同.同时结合实际情况,中国的父母对孩子的期望很高.因此划线部分为很高有期望.故选C
60:答案:A.主旨大意题.分析文章的中心句:Is it too strict in China?Or is it not strict enough in the USA?Maybe both are true.句意:中国的教育太严吗?还是美国的教育不严?可能两者都是正确的.从中心句中得出结论,重点在介绍中国与美国的教育上有所不同.故选A

16.Many people travel to different places in the world by air.Usually it takes a long time,perhaps half a day,for passengers to stay in the plane.So airlines(航空公司)offer passengers food.But it is common that they feel bad about food taste.Do you agree?
To solve this problem,airlines try hard to improve their food.They would like to do so because they don't want to lose customers.
However,according to scientific research,part of the reason why plane food tastes bad is that at high altitude(海拔)we can not taste things as well as we do on the ground.Also scientists have found that our noses become very dry even before a plane takes off.As the plane moves up,the change in air  pressure(气压)reduces one third of the sensibility(感觉)of our taste buds(味蕾).So our taste buds become senseless.The sad face,however,is that our noses don't know it.
All of these help explain why food on the plane tastes so bad.They also help explain why airlines choose to offer passengers salty and spicy(辛辣的)food.Without doing so,the food would be tasteless.
Now there are many researches on this.According to one of them,some volunteers are asked to lie with their feet higher than their heads for weeks.And scientists write down their feelings about food taste.
Though scientists try their best,it is not as easy as they thought.Because they can't deal with the special environment successfully,such as the change in air pressure,making food taste good is still hard for them.

61.In Paragraph 2,"this problem"meansB.
A.passengers stay long in the plane
B.food on the plane tastes bad
C.passengers have no food to eat
D.food on the plane is expensive
62.What do airlines do to solve this problem?C
A.Get more customers.
B.Offer more food.
C.Improve their food.
D.Reduce the ticket price.
63.As the plane moves up,the change in air pressure reducesB of the sensibility of our taste buds.
A.half         
B.one third
C.one fourth   
D.one fifth
64.Why do scientists feel it hard to made food on the plane taste good?D
A.The volunteers don't know about food taste.
B.The volunteers don't understand them.
C.They can't find enough volunteers.
D.They can't deal with the special environment successfully.
65.What is the best title of the passage?A
A.Taste of Airplane Food
B.Airplane Travel
C.Scientific Research on Noses
D.The Change in Air Pressure.
