28.This Thursday, across the US, kids are skipping school and going
to work with their parents. They’ll be making copies, sending
faxes(传真)and sweeping floors. This is because April 28 is Take Our
Sons and Daughters to Work Day all over the US. This holiday shows
kids what it means to be a grown-up in the working world.I still
remember when this day started, I was very happy. Not only did I
have the chance to miss school, but I also got to sit in my dad’s
taxi all day long and we would go to a restaurant for lunch.But
after only 20 minutes of driving around the city. I was very bored.
I couldn’t read my book in the car as I would get carsick and my
dad didn’t like to turn on the radio. I got hot and uncomfortable.
people wouldn’t get into his taxi because they thought he already
had a passenger: meso nothing happened. It seemed years before we
went out for lunch. I actually started to miss school.While the
point of the day is to give kids a chance to experience real-life
jobs and give them an idea of the possibilities for their futures,
I got something completely different from the day. I learned to
appreciate(重视) school. Where else do you get to play with your
friends, do science experiments, read great books and write stories
all in one day?Just as you’ll have to learn to love your job later
in life, learn to love school now. If you don’t already, try
spending the day at work with your dad.
29.Near the village, there is an old famous temple. Some people
want to build new house where the temple now stands, because they
can find no other area to build them, while others disagree with
them. They meet to decide how to solve the problem. Here are their
opinions about it.The expert wants to protect the temple and
believes that there are some interesting things buried in the
ground. If it is destroyed or moved, people may never learn about
how people lived in the past.The businessman thinks that the houses
should be built. History is important, but we must think about the
future. The village needs development and building new houses will
offer jobs to hundreds of people.Villager A says, We should build
the new houses because we need houses to live in.Villager B says,
We should protect the temple because it can attract many tourists
to come for a visit. If the temple is destroyed or moved, we will
lose a lot of business.The village leader thinks that he has a duty
to make life better for the villagers. They need jobs and new
houses. He also thinks the cultural site is important and they
should be careful with it as well.
30.More than 200 activities have been held so far during the
Chinese Language Year in Russia. It has not only made Chinese
culture popular in Russia, but also improved understanding and
friendship between Russians and Chinese people. More and more
Russians begin to enjoy Chinese food and operas, watch TV programs
to learn Chinese, and travel in China.Since the Chinese Language
Year program in Russia started, so many events such as movie weeks,
operas, Chinese language classes, language contests and teaching
programs have been popular in Russia.Through the activities,
Russian people have had a chance to learn more about the Chinese
culture, literature, history and its life today. For example, the
first group of 500 Russian students visited the Chinese cities of
Beijing, Dalian and Qingdao. There they painted both countries'
landmarks, including the Tian' anmen Square, the Great Wall, the
Kremb(克林姆宫),the Volga River and the Red Square. When the Russian
students returned, they took part in a photo contest and a writing
contest to show their love for China.And Russians, especially young
people, have become more and more interested in learning Chinese.
To date, more than 130 universities in Russia are offering Chinese
courses. More than 20 middle and primary schools have also taught
Chinese as their first foreign language.
31.Laura Brent is a manager in an important company. She has three
childrenthe eldest is ten, and youngest is three. My job was only
possible because my husband David was prepared to take my place and
become a house husband, she says.More and more couples are finding
this arrangement suits them better in today’s world, where women
are rising to the top of their careers faster and more easily than
they did in the past. Many men, on the other hand, like the idea of
staying at home and looking after the children. My children see a
lot more of me than I saw of my father when I was young, and I
think it’s better for them, especially for the boys, says David. It
works just as well for Laura.Now I can come home from a hard day at
work, and immediately relax with the children, instead of having to
do the housework and the cooking, she says.Is there anything David
misses about going out to work?Not really. I suppose the worst
thing about looking after children and doing the housework is not
having a lunch break! It’s a lot harder than most men think.

28.Mr. Green and his wife had a dog. When they went out, they
always left the dog inside the house. One evening they wanted to go
to the cinema, so they left the dog in the house and locked the
door and their garden gate. They went off in their car.When the
film was finished, they went home. They opened the gate and put the
car away. When they came to the front door, they found that the
glass in the door was broken. The door was not locked and it was
open. A robber! They went in and quickly looked in all the rooms to
see if the robber had taken their things. However, everything was
in the right place and nothing at all was missing.The dog was
sleeping in the sitting-room. The wife was angry with the dog.Why
didn’t you guard the house?she said. The dog was pleased to see Mr.
and Mrs. Green. It began to wag(摇)its tail and then it went to a
comer of the room and picked up something in its mouth. It went to
the wife and dropped the thing at her feet. When she went to pick
it up, she was very surprised. Can you guess what the dog’s present
was? It was a man’s finger!The end of the story is this. Mr. Green
telephoned the police and told them everything. Three days later
the police caught the robber. They found him easily.
29.Mr. Zhang was a sports fan. He worked in a hospital in the
capital. He was busy all the time and had little time to have a
rest. And one day he felt unwell and couldn't go on working. He
decided to spend a week's holiday in a quiet village where he could
go swimming or fishing. He got off at a small railway station and
soon got to a quiet village. He took a room hotel and went to sleep
as soon as he had a good meal.At first Mr. Zhang enjoyed himself
there. He could do everything he wanted and went wherever he liked.
Nobody disturbed him and knocked at the door at midnight. But on
the fourth day he was in trouble. After lunch it was very hot. He
went swimming in the river. Suddenly he saw a beautiful bird in a
big tree. He wanted to catch it, so he walked to it, but it found
him and flew away as soon as gone. He began to pick some flowers in
the forest and before long he lost his way.The sun had gone down
and night had fallen before Mr. Zhang found a small restaurant in
another village. He came in and told them to bring him some bread,
two eggs and a glass of tea. After a while his food was brought.
Soon he ate up all the bread and eggs. When he was going to have
the tea, he found there was a fly in the glass. What's in
my tea? Mr. Zhang called out, A fly It's impossible, sir.
said the owner of the restaurant, I had told them to pick
all the flies out of your tea before they brought it to you!
30.For the British, the home is private place in which he or she
goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that
one would be invited to a British person’s home. It is rude to
knock on a person’s door if you are not invited. If you are
invited, don’t ask to see more than the downstairs that your
British host invites you into. Never ask how much the house or any
of the items in it cost.To the American, most of them want their
home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their
lives with their friends. They may be delighted to give you a full
tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your
interest and pleasure in their houses.Both British and American
people will engage in quite a bit of chat and a drink or two before
the meal is served. After the first mouthful, you should say how
delicious the food is and ask something about it. Remember, never
eat with your mouth open and make very little noise while eating.
It would be nice of you to help your host in any way. Maybe offer
to pour some drinks or clear up after the meal.
31. If you’re into sports, you’ve seen it happentennis players jump
over the net to shake hands after a hard match; football players
exchange jerseys（运动衣）after ninety minutes of knocking each other
around; even boxers touch gloves at the beginning of each round.
Players in every event, from spelling bees to golf，act in this way.
It’s all part of sportsmanship（体育精神），a great tradition in sports
and competition. It means playing and being calm all through the
match. Everyone feels great when they win. In the last few years,
you might see some players celebrate a goal with a long victory
dance or talk big about their ability. However, it’s always hard
for people to say in public that they made a bad play. Good
sportsmanship is what they really need. It’s the golden rule of
sports. Good sportsmanship means that you play by the rules, talk
politely to everyone during games and stay cool even when you lose
the game. At the school sports meeting, for example, it’s more
important for you to know how to work as part of a team and cheer
your teammates on. That may help you enjoy more success at your
future work. In competitionas in lifeyou may not always win, but
believe me, sportsmanship will help you get through, and there is
always the next match.

it up, she was very surprised. Can you guess what the dog’s present
was? It was a man’s finger!The end of the story is this. Mr. Green
telephoned the police and told them everything. Three days later
the police caught the robber. They found him easily.
29. Eating out is more popular in Britain today than it has ever
been. It is reported that British people spend more eating out than
cooking for themselves and eating at home. It seems that many
British people are becoming more and more interested in how good
their food tastes, and also how healthy it is. However, eating out
can also be expensive, so British people do not eat out every
night. When having a date with friends, or having a birthday, many
people like to go to a restaurant, and people often also eat in a
restaurant before going to the cinema or the theater. As in all
cultures, there are many rules of manners about eating. The knife
and fork should be used in the correct way. It is also impolite to
speak with your mouth full when you are eating. Most British cities
have a large collection of food as well as British food, from the
very cheap to the very expensive－ French, Italian, Indian, Chinese,
Thai, Japanese and many, many more. When people are too tired to
cook after work, they often get a takeaway. This means that they
order from a take－out restaurant by telephone, and then go to get
it. Many take-out restaurants also send it to your house. All you
have to do is to open the door, pay and eat!
30.For the British, the home is private place in which he or she
goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that
one would be invited to a British person’s home. It is rude to
knock on a person’s door if you are not invited. If you are
invited, don’t ask to see more than the downstairs that your
British host invites you into. Never ask how much the house or any
of the items in it cost.To the American, most of them want their
home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their
lives with their friends. They may be delighted to give you a full
tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your
interest and pleasure in their houses.Both British and American
people will engage in quite a bit of chat and a drink or two before
the meal is served. After the first mouthful, you should say how
delicious the food is and ask something about it. Remember, never
eat with your mouth open and make very little noise while eating.
It would be nice of you to help your host in any way. Maybe offer
to pour some drinks or clear up after the meal.
31.Some people think only school children do not agree with their
parents, however, it is not true.Communication is a problem for
parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to
communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here are some
advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).Don’t argue with
your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your
parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at
them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go some
place to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy.
Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t
think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents
disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your
best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him
about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally
came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove
it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to
compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially
important to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will
keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of
your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell
your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your
values might help them see your purposes in life.A good
relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier
person. It is worth having a try!
