How do native speakers truly feel when speaking with non-native English speakers?It seems that (61)broken (break) English annoys them.However,they keep being really nice when speaking with non-native speakers.I wonder how they really feel when doing so.
I think it would depend (62)on/upon the native English speakers.Some people are just (63)easily (easy) annoyed.
(64)Personally(person),I study Spanish.When I hear someone attempting English,I am patient with them because I know (65)how difficult it is to talk in a non-native tongue.I also know English is very difficult (66)to learn (learn),and that increases my respect for their efforts.I'm a patient person by nature.
The situation matters too.If I (67)were (be)waiter on a super crowded day and really  needed to do about a dozen different things,I might become upset at having to wait for someone to struggle while (68)ordering(order)his meal.
There also exists the (69)possibility ( possible) that what is considered as annoyance is not truly annoyance.I might frown (皱眉)while listening to a non-native speaker,(70)but that would be because I am concentrating and listening hard to understand him.It wouldn't mean I'm at all annoyed.

Hi Fellows,
I'm Li Hua,a senior high student from China.I'd like to share something with you.Since the beginning of senior high,the learning burden makes us students feel more stressed.Many of us often sit up late at night fighting for the College Entrance Exam; even a ten-minute break won't be let go.
As far as I know,lack of sleep does great harm to our heaith.For one thing,we can't concentrate in class if we don't get enough sleep.For another,we may get angry and impatient easily.By the same token,a ten-minute break is definitely necessary,which can help us get rid of tiredness and focus on next class period.A famous proverb goes well,"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy".How about your situation and opinion?
Looking forward to your reply..

6.In 1988,a company in Ohio invented an alcohol-based hand cleaner,which was meant to be used by health-care worker; when soap and water were unavailable.Joe Kanfer,the company's C.E.O.,told me recently,"there were a couple of other alcohol products out there,but they were really ugly.Either they were greasy (油腻的) or they burned your hands white."Kanfer took a year and a half to develop this product which is visually appealing and does almost no harm to one's skin.Still.Kanfer lost money on it for more than a decade because people couldn't get what it was for.
T    he product was called Purell.Today,you see it everywhere.My doctor uses it several times during every office visit.You can hear it in almost every office in the U.S.and school picnics would be impossible without it.The former president Grorge W.Bush was called a racist for using hand cleaner after first shaking hands with Barack Obama,but Bush also gave some of it to Obama and recommended it as a cold preventative (预防药).What was once barely even a product is now a growing product category,worth hundreds of millions per year.
    The rise of Purell makes some health professionals uneasy.Some claimed that promoting hand cleaner may worsen"our culture's irrational (非理性的) fear about bacteria."Still,the clear agreement among experts is that unclean hands pose a serious health risk,and are one of the main reasons in the spread of infections in hospitals.A 2007 study estimated that,in America in 2002,such infections resulted in more than a million and a half patient illnesses and caused or contributed to nearly a hundred thousand patient deaths-about double the number of U.S.deaths currently caused each year by AIDS and guns combined.
    However,I asked a food microbiologist whether clean hands might have a medical drawback.He said,"We might have a much healthier population if we adopted the kinds of condition that we see in many Third World countries,with poor-quality food and poor-quality water and lots of bacteria.If we did that,we would have adults who were very healthy and have very strong immune systems.Unfortunately,the price that we would pay would be extremely high child death rate."

28.Why did Joe Kanfer lose money on his product according to Paragraph 1?A
A.Because people didn't think it useful.
B.Because people thought it was ugly.
C.Because it was harmful to the skin.
D.Because it burned the hands white.
29.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?B
A.Purell brings in lots of money for Kanfer.
B.Purell has been widely used in the US.
C.Purell is a cold preventative.
D.Purell meets different needs.
30.What mainly caused patient deaths according to the figures in Paragraph 3?C
A.People's fear about bacteria.
B.Hand cleaner.
C.Bacteria on the dirty hands.
D.AIDS and guns.
31.What can we learn about the people in Third World countries?D
A.They adopt healthy living habits.
B.They have poor immune systems.
C.They eat food with fewer bacteria.
D.Their child death rate remains high.

13.With more recognition than Halloween and less than Christmas,Valentine's Day as an imported festival faces a dangerous situation in China,where it's caught between forces of tradition and fashion.Valentine's Day has a natural enemy in China.And it is not the Chinese equivalent,which falls on the seventh day of the seventh month on the lunar calendar,usually around half a year away from Feb.14.It is the Spring Festival,also known as the Chinese New Year,that will influence the Feast of Saint Valentine.
The real disagreement between East and West probably took place over a century ago,when China's door was forced open by Western powers and Chinese scholars supported westernization as a means to strengthen our nation's ability to compete.The introduction of the solar calendar and Western measurements was both an acknowledgment of their influence and an effort to be accepted by the world order.
For a full century,we have had two systems running in parallel.When it comes to the eventual outcome,practicality usually beats all other concerns.Laws can help,such as the three traditional festivals of Tomb Sweeping,Dragon Boat and Mid-Autumn gaining legal status in 2008 and giving every Chinese citizen a day off,but laws cannot push what people have no feelings for.So,the celebration or boycott of imported holidays or homegrown ones should be no cause for worry.If they are irrelevant,no social media will change the public's mind; and if they are accepted,there must be a need which they happen to satisfy.
Since we have no global Qin Shihuang to force one system on every country,we can always rely on a dual (双重) approach by which we share with the outside world on one hand but preserve our own ways of life on the other.

24.What does the author think about Valentine's Day in present China?A
A.It meets with a natural enemy.
B.It is better known than Christmas.
C.It strongly attacks Chinese culture.
D.It is more popular with young people.
25.The underlined word"equivalent"in the first paragraph refers toD.
A.the Dragon-boat Festival      
B.the Spring Festival
C.the Mid-autumn Festival     
D.the Chinese Valentine's Day
26.According to the author,the leading factor to decide what to celebrate isB.
A.current laws       B.people's needs     C.public media     D.age-old tradition
27.The author believes thatC.
A.the conflict between the East and the West will last long
B.Chinese festivals are to be paid more attention to in years
C.both Chinese and foreign systems of festivals can co-exist in China
D.this cultural shock is normal and will be received by more people in the future.

    You have the education and the work experience.(36)FHowever,to have a successful job interview,these are still several things you should do.

2.(37)EMost interviewers will ask a question relating to your strengths and weaknesses.Before the interview,examine the job you are applying for and determine the top skills needed for that position.For instance,if you are applying for a job as a telephone operator,it's more important that you have strong communication skills than that you are tidy.
3.Have evidence.(38)GBut if you can tell the interviewer about a time you organized an event,it make the fact much more solid
4.Prepare questions to ask about the company and the job.
(39)A When you are under pressure,it can be difficult to think straight.Preparing before the interview will make it easier to give answers to those tough questions.But you can't think of every question they might ask.(40)BRemember,first impressions are lasting.
