C. Be friendly to the locals　　　D. Give Chinese presents

E. Take a photo album with you　F. Share something special about China

56. Be polite and friendly. Remember to put yourself in social situations. Restaurants, shops and parks are all great places to meet people. If you want to make local friends in a country, stay near the places the locals often visit.

57. Keep a small photo album in your bag when you travel. Photos of family, friends and pets will help your new friends learn more about you. They will share their similar experiences with you, and it will help you learn more about your new friends.

58. Can you help your new friends improve their Chinese? Can you cook a traditional Chinese meal? By sharing your experiences, you can have a close relationship with your new friends that they won’t soon forget.

59. Many foreigners love Chinese goods but have to pay a lot when buying them in their homeland, so you’d better prepare some gifts such as silks, tea and china (瓷器). They are always popular.

60. If you and your new friends get along well, you can give them your information and plan to live in each other’s house for your next trip. Then you can visit their countries and stay in their houses while they stay in yours. In this way you will improve your friendship and live like a local abroad, but pay less for traveling.

Being able to multitask—doing several things at the same time—is considered (考虑，认为) a welcome skill by most people. But if we consider the situation of the young people aged from eight to eighteen, we should think again.

What we often see nowadays is that young people juggle a larger number of electronic devices (电子产品) as they study. While working, they also surf on the Internet, send out emails, answer the telephone and listen to music on their iPods. In a sense, they are spending a large amount of time in fruitless efforts (努力) as they multitask.

Multitasking is even changing the relationship between family members. As young people give so much attention to their own worlds, they seem to have no time to spend with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house, nor can they eat at the family table.

Multitasking also has an effect (影响) on young people’s performance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the effects of modern gadgets (器具) on their performance of tasks, many young people gave a positive (肯定的) response (回应). However, the response from the worlds of education and business was not quite as positive. Educators feel that multitasking by children has a serious effect on later development of study skills. They believe that many college students now need help to improve their study skills. Similarly, employers (雇主) feel that young people entering the job market need to be taught all over again, as modern gadgets have made it unnecessary (没必要) for them to learn special skills to do their work.

51. What does the underlined word “juggle” most probably mean?

A. Want to buy.                                B. Use at the same time.

C. Take the place of.                          D. Search information from.

52. In Paragraph 3, the author points out that__________.

A. family members do not greet each other

B. family members do not eat at the family table

C. young people get on well with their families

D. young people hardly communicate with their family members

53. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?

A. Young people must learn skills for future jobs.

B. Young people benefit (获益) a lot from modern gadgets.

C. Multitasking is an important skill to young people.

D. Multitasking influences young people’s development seriously.

54. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Young people think multitasking is good for their study and work.

B. Employers consider it unnecessary for young people to be taught all over again.

C. Educators feel that young people don’t need to improve their study skills.  

D. People from the world of education believe multitasking has a good effect on children’s later study skills.

55. The author develops (阐述) the passage mainly by__________.

A. providing special examples

B. following the natural time order

C. giving out a cause and analyzing (分析) its effects 

D. comparing opinions from different worlds

Basketball star Yao Ming announced his retirement on July 20^th of 2011 after a great career that made him China’s best-known athlete and helped improve the game’s global growth.

The 2.26m star said, “Today I announce a personal decision. I’m officially retiring and ending my career as a basketball player. The retirement means one door has been closed for me, but a new one has opened to a whole new life outside for me to enjoy. Though I’ll leave the sporting arena(竞技场), I’m not leaving basketball.”

He was not China’s first player in the NBA, but he was certainly the best-known.

“I would like to thank you for giving me a great nine-year career,” he said. “Nine years ago I came to Houston as a young, tall, thin player and the city and team changed me into a grown man, not only a basketball player... I’m leaving the basketball court but I am not leaving the game. I’ll do my best to bring honor and glory to my hometown and to Chinese basketball.”
