Many young people want to become pop-stars. It is their great ambition(雄心) in life. They think pop-stars earn a lot of money, they lead interesting and exciting lives, thousands of fans love them, and they become famous!

Yes, but first they must become stars. Most performers star life with a group. This is the pattern nowadays. But there are many groups and competitions are hard. Groups appear and disappear almost overnight. Only a small number survive. Almost without exception they have to work very hard before they reach the top.

And very few reach the top and stay there. In England there are perhaps thirty or so groups at the top. Most of these do not earn so much money, perhaps 500 pounds each time they perform. What’s more, they have quite a lot of expenses(開銷). They have to pay a manager, for example. He is the key person in their lives and takes about 20% of their earnings-perhaps more. Then there are their clothes, their instruments and their van. Sometimes they are still playing for the last two items.

And don’t forget, they have to travel a great deal-sometimes 2,000 miles in one week. At times they even sleep in their van instead of a hotel, just to save money.

So now, what do you think? Are pop-stars so rich? And do they have such exciting lives?

1.Which of the following is the reason that many young people want to become pop-stars?

A. Living an exciting life.

B. Becoming a rich man.

C. Being loved by thousands of fans.

D. All of the above.

2.Why is the group’s manager well paid? Because __________.

A. he runs this group

B. he looks after them

C. he is important to them

D. he buys them clothes and instruments

3. The writer makes us believe ___________.

A. it is pleasant to become a pop-star

B. if you work very hard in pop groups, you will reach the top

C. pop-stars are neither too rich nor too happy

D. general persons had better not dream of pop-stars

(2014杭州)

How quickly can you count from one to ten?Do you use ten different words to do it?Can you do it in English,or do you have to use your first?language?Do you count on your fingers?Many

people think that numbers and math are the same all over the world.But scientists have discovered that it is not true.

People in different parts of the world use different ways to count on their fingers.In the United States,people begin counting with their first finger,which they extend or stick out.They then extend the rest of their fingers and finally the thumb(拇指)to count to five.Then they repeat this with the other hand to get to ten.In China,people count by using different finger positions.In this way,a Chinese person can easily count to ten on only one hand.

Besides ways of finger counting,scientists have found that cultures and languages are also different when it comes to numbers.Some languages have only a few words for numbers,and others have no words for numbers.A group of scientists studied aboriginal(土著的)people in Australia.There people don’t have hand movements to stand for numbers.They don’t even have words for numbers.However,they are still able to understand different ideas about numbers.

In a similar study,researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology discovered that people of the Piraha tribe(部落)in northwestern Brazil don’t have words for numbers such as“one”or“three”.They are not able to say“five trees”or“ten trees”but can say“some trees”.“more trees”.or“many trees”.Professor Edward Gibson said that most people believe that everyone knows how to count,“but here is a group that does not count.They could learn,but it’s not useful in their culture,so they’ve never picked it up.”

Although all humans are able to understand quantities(數(shù)量),not all languages have numbers and not all people use counting.Number words in a certain language are a result of people needing numbers in their daily lives.Now we know that people have different ideas about numbers and math,too.

1.The writer begins with the four questions in order to________.

A.make a survey

B.interest readers

C.tell a story

D.solve math problems

2.What do we learn from the difference in finger counting between the US and China?

A.People from China count much faster than people from the US.

B.People from China need two hands to count from one to ten.

C.People of different cultures may use different ways of finger counting.

D.People of different cultures use the same way of finger counting.

3.Which of the following is true about aboriginal Australians?

A.They have only a few words for numbers.

B.They have hand movements to stand for numbers.

C.They can only count to five on their fingers.

D.They can understand different ideas about numbers.

4.The study of the Piraha tribe shows that________.

A.people all over the world know how to count

B.people of the tribe have words for numbers

C.some groups of people are not smart enough to count

D.counting is not useful in the culture of the tribe

5.What is the main idea of the passage?

A.People from different cultures have different ideas about numbers and math.

B.Chinese people can count more easily on their fingers than Americans.

C.In some aboriginal cultures,people don’t even know how to count.

D.Some languages don’t have number words because people don’t need numbers.
