It isn’t that our friends are all very busy, it is just that we haven’t got a television. People think that we are very strange. “But w hat do you do in the evening?”,they are always asking. The answer is very simple. Both my wife and I have hobbies. We certainly don’t spend our evenings staring at the walls. My wife enjoys cooking and painting and often attends evening classes in foreign languages. This is particularly useful as we often go abroad for our holidays. I collect stamps and I’m always busy with my collection. Both of us enjoy listening to the music and playing chess together.Sometimes there are power cuts and we have no electricity in the house. This does not worry us, we just light candles and carry on with what we were doing before. Our friends, however, are lost---no television!---So they don’t know what to do. On such evenings our house is very full ---they all come to us. They all have a good time. Instead of sitting in silence in fro nt of the television, everybody talks and plays games.36.

The next morning, I got ready for school as usual. When the bell rang, the students came in, I greeted them and told them what we were going to do that day.When I turned around to write on the blackboard, the class broke out a roar.They laughed and laughed. The laughed so much, in fact, that I was afraid the headmaster would be in and see all this. I asked the c lass to stop, but the more I talked, the more they laughed. I decided to pay no attention to them and continued to write on the blackboard. When I did this, they roared even more. Finally, the teacher who were in the next room came in to see what all the laughter was about. Wh en he came in, he started laughing, too!“Good heaven,” I said. “Will someone please tell me what is so funny?”“Oh, God,” said the teacher. “You have a brown sock stuck to the back of your skirt!”So that’s how I found my husband’s missing sock. “Oh, well,” I said to the class,“ Let’s just say you have had an unforgettable lesson on static electricity(静电学).”40.

She explained the matter in a clever wayCHarriet Tubman lived a life filled with adventure. Tubman worked with theUnder-ground Railroad. She helped many slaves reach freedom in the North. She was a scout (童子军)in the Civil War. She also worked as a nurse during the war.Life in the Old South was very hard for slaves. Most slaves lived in small houses. They had 1arge families, and even the children had to work in the fields. Most slaves dreamed of getting to the North. They wanted to be free.One day Harriet saw a slave trying to run away. Then she saw the keeper running after him with a whip(鞭子). Harriet stood in the keeper’s way. The keepe r took a weight and threw it at the slave. He hit Harriet above her eyes. It almost killed her. The scar(伤疤)on Harriet’s head was an emblem of her will to fight for what she believed in.The Fugitive(逃亡)Slave Law made Harriet’s job harder. The law said tha t slaves could be caught even in the North. Harriet began leading slaves all the way into Canada. There they’re safe. The law couldn’t hurt them there.When Harriet came for her mother and father, they were very old. Harriet was afraid they might not be able to make the trip. She got a horse.

Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end. All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling “interpretation” of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once. Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on film, is obviously a special reward. But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it.I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it, if there isn’t time for both. I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love p oetry. Poetry is “ a criticism of life”, and “ a heightening (提升)of life”. It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”, and it “can save your life”.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those wh o don’t like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else. But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.48. To have a better understanding of a poem, one should_________.A. discuss it with othersB. analyze it by oneselfC. copy it down in a notebookD. practise reading it aloud49. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a function of poetry? ____________A. Extending your life.B. Saving your lifeC. Criticizing lifeD. Heightening life50. According to the writer, one of the p urposes of teaching English is to getstudents .A. to understand lifeB. to enjoy poetryC. to become teachersD. to become poets51. What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply? _________A. More stress was laid on the und erstanding of poetry in the past.B. Poetry is more important than any other subject.C. One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.D. Poetry is the foundation of all language and literature courses.四书面表达:第一节:阅读表达阅读下面短文,然后用英语简洁回答文后所给的五个问题,每题答案不超过10个单词。
