    　　What is language for? Some people seem to think it's for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words—the longer the lists，the better. That's wrong. Language is for the exchange（交流）of ideas and information. It's meaningless knowing all about a language if you can't use it freely. Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules, but they can't speak correctly or fluently. They are afraid of making mistakes. One shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language. Native speakers make mistakes and break rules, too. Bernard saw once wrote, "Foreigners often speak English too correctly." But the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make. They're English mistakes in the English language. And if enough native speakers break a rule, it is no longer a rule. What used to be wrong becomes right. People not only make history, they make language. But a people can only make its own language. It can't make another people's language. So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar, but they shouldn't overdo（做过头）it. They should put communication first.

    When I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from China.
    When India had not opened up its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now.
    Still, her answer surprised me: “Green tea.”
    As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink Indian tea.
    I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses.
    At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average Indian. It was a strange country.
    How things change! And how soon!
    Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China.
    The government of India has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done. A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment (投资) and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”.
    But it’s a two-way street. I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Rangalore to train in software. Meanwhile, all the IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China.
    No wonder that trade, which was only in the millions just ten years ago, is expected to hit about US $15 billion for last year and US $20 billion by 2012, a goal set by both governments.
    No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the Sino-Indian (中国和印度的) century as the two countries started on January 1st the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.
    But what is still a wonder to me is my mother’s drinking Chinese tea.
    小题1:Why did the mother ask for Chinese green tea?
    A．She was tired of Indian tea.
    B．She had a son working in China.
    C．She believed it had a curing effect.
    D．She was fond of Chinese products.
    小题2:What does the author mean by “it’s a two-way street” in Paragraph 10?
    A．China and India have different traffic rules.
    B．Tea trade works wonders in both India and China.
    C．Chinese products are popular in both China and India.
    D．There are exchanges between India and China.
    小题3:What do we know about the Indian IT industry?
    A．It is seeking further development in China.
    B．It will move its head office to Shenzhen.
    C．It has attracted an investment of US $15 billion.
    D．It caught up with the US IT industry in 2008.
    小题4:In the text the author expresses _______.
    A．his concern for his mother’s health
    B．his support for drinking Chinese green tea
    C．his surprise at China’s recent development
    D．his wonder at the growth of India’s IT industry
    小题5:It is inferred in the text that _______.
    A．the author’s mother loves China very much
    B．the Indians were not familiar with China before
    C．the government of India encourages their people to buy Chinese green tea
    D．the two countries didn’t cooperate until last year

    We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it.
    Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changed — no examination is perfect — but to have no tests or examination would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in schools or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency the values and the purpose of each teacher.
    Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them — a form of favouritism will replace equality at the moment. The bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lack of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school’s reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favoured school.
    The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.
    小题1: The word “favouritism” in paragraph 3 is used to describe the phenomenon that         .
    A．bright children also need certificates to get satisfying jobs.
    B．poor children with certificates are favoured in job markets.
    C．children from well-respected schools tend to have good jobs.
    D．children attending ordinary schools achieve great success.
    小题2:. What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the author?
    A．Schools for bright children would lose their reputation.
    B．There would be more opportunities and excellence.
    C．Children from poor families would be able to change their schools.
    D．Children’s job opportunity would be affected by their school reputation.
    小题3:. The opponents of the examination system will agree that           .
    A．jobs should not be assigned by systematic selection
    B．computers should be selected to take over many jobs.
    C．special classes are necessary to keep the school standards
    D．schools with academic subjects should be done away with
    小题4:. The passage mainly focuses on            .
    A．schools and certificatesB．examination and equality
    C．opportunity and employmentD．standards and reputation

    The Chinese word"Shanzhai" means a small mountain village， but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes(假货) after" Shanzhai cell phones " produced by small workshops in southern China ，became popular in the mainland market over the past few years.
    Besides" Shanzhai" electronic products， there are "Shanzhai" movies， "Shanzhai" stars and even a "Shanzhai" Spring Festival Gala， a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year's Eve.
    " Shanzhai" has become a culture of its own，symbolizing anything that imitates something famous.
    The phenomenon has caused a public debate over whether it is healthy or sick being a copycat.
    In southwestern China's Chongqing Municipality，a "Shanzhai" -version"Bird’s Nest" woven by farmers with bamboo attracts wide attention and the"Shanzhai"-version "Water Cube"is popular with tourists too. Both are copies of the famous Olympics buildings in Beijing.
    Xie Xizhang，a literature critic，said that taking the "Shanzhai" Gala as an example， when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience， the "Shanzhai" version appears naturally to attract people.
    "In spite of its poor techniques and operation， ‘Shanzhai’ culture meets the psychological demands of common people and could be a comfort to their minds," Xie said.
    Tian Huiqun，a professor at Beijing Normal University，said that "Shanzhai" culture never copies classic things，only trendy products. In that sense，it's like a computer virus， multiplying without meaning.
    Though controversial，"Shanzhai" culture is becoming a widely accepted phenomenon.
    "To the mainstream culture, the rise of ‘Shanzhai' culture is a challenge as well as a motivation，" said Xie.
    Tian said different kinds of cultures developing together is an ideal situation and it is for the public to choose.

    A．fake cell phones B．electronic products
    C．Spring Festival Gala D．Olympics buildings
    小题2:The underlined word "imitates" is closest in meaning to       
    A．steals B．copies C．advertisesD．cheats

    A．the action that a person imitates famous people
    B．anything that imitates something famous
    C．those similar names to famous brands

    C．"Shanzhai" culture-the mainstream culture
    D．"Shanzhai" culture takes on life of its own
