happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit.
When he arrived, he bounced (跳) happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked
through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great
surprise, he found himself staring at 1,000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as
his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1,000 great smiles just as warm and friendly.
As he left the house, he thought to himself, "This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit
often."
In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to
visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door.
When he saw the 1,000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was
horrified to see 1,000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, "This is a
horrible place, and I will never go back there again."
All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see on the faces of the
people you meet?
B. Because he didn"t know there were 1,000 mirrors in the house.
C. Because he was always in a mixed mood.

| A lot of teachers hate doodlers(乱写乱画的人)during classes. "Pay attention!" Teachers will often warn doodling students, sure that they must be daydreaming. However, according to a recent study, doodling while listening to a boring lecture helps concentrate(集中)the attention: Andrade, a psychology professor in England asked participants to listen to a boring lecture. Half the participants were told to color in squares and circles freely on a piece of paper while listening to the lecture. The other half weren’t given a task. After it was over, the participants were asked to retell the lecture. Those given the doodling task (color in squares and circles) remembered 29 percent more information than the non-doodlers. Andrade said. "If someone is doing a boring task, like listening to a dull conversation, they may start daydream," said Professor Andrade. "Daydreaming distracts(使分心)them from the task, resulting in poorer performance. A simple task, like doodling, can stop them from daydreaming without affecting their performance at the task," he said. So the next time you"re doodling during a class, and you hear "pay attention", you can tell the teacher with confidence that you"ve been paying attention to every word． 1. The passage mainly tells us . | |||
| A. doodling will be banned(禁止) in classes B. teachers are against doodling C. doodling may help concentrate D. doodling can lead to daydream | |||
| 2. Teachers hate doodlers because they thought . | |||
| A. doodlers are not good at study B. doodlers are doing no task C. doodlers pay no attention in class D. doo  dlers are not polite to them | |||
| 3. According to the text, it is helpful to doodle when . | |||
| A. a boring lecture is given B. an interesting story is told C. watching a long TV program D. having a conversation with the teacher | |||
| 4. Professor Andrade thinks . | |||
| A. those given the doodling task can remember less information B. if you have daydream during classes you"ll have a good memory C. daydreaming is better than doodling D. doodling can stop us from daydreaming | |||
| 5. We can learn from the text that . | |||
| A. doodling is the best way to draw attention B. daydreaming is different from doodling C. doodling will be helpful in any occasion D. every student should doodle in class | |||

| My mother is a diligent and kind woman. She is very busy from morning till night. As a teacher, she works hard. 1 Both my brother and I love her dearly as she loves us. My mother has been teaching math at a middle school in my hometown. She goes to work early in the morning and does not return home until late in the afternoon. 2 She treats them with patience and teaches them well. For her excellent quality and very good teaching results, she has been elected as a model teacher several times. 3 . Every day, when she comes back home from work, she sets about doing housework, sweeping the living room and bedrooms or cleaning the furniture, and putting everything in good order. She seems to be busy all the time. As she has been very busy working every day, she looks older than her age. But she looks as cheerful and happy as ever. Mother never buys expensive dresses for herself, but she often buys some inexpensive but high quality clothes for us. 4 She just eats a plain meal outside when she is too busy to cook herself. She lives a busy yet simple life, without any complaints. Often she says to us, "work while you work, and play while you play. That is the way to be happy and gay. If you do not work, you will become lazy and be of no use to society". What a piece of good advice this is! 5 . This advice of hers will always serve as a guide to my behavior. My mother is great indeed, and I always feel proud of her. | |||
