April 27 is Take Our Daughters to Work Day in Britain. Started at first in the United States and brought to Britain in 1994, Take Our Daughters to Work Day has become a special day for girls between 11 and 15. On that day thousands of girls take a day off school and go together with one of their parents to their work places. The purpose of this day is to broaden girls’ horizons and raise their self-confidence.

For many years people have thought that boys can do better than girls in society. But actually, “girls can be whatever they want to be just like boys, whether it is a pilot, a nurse or a chief executive,” says the chairman of Our Sons and Daughters Charitable Trust, an organization which supported the activity of the Day. “Now the girls have a close look at what their parents are doing and this may help them to be more self-confident when they are faced with a choice of work.”

Schools and many companies support the activity too. Palmers Green High School for Girls, in north London, has made the Day a necessary part of career education.

Zarina Bart, 15, from Palmers Green, went with her mother to her lawyer’s office on this year’s Take Our Daughters to Work Day. She found it interesting to see her mother at work. “It’s really strange seeing Mum at work — running around, getting serious and telling people what to do.” She has always liked this idea of going into law and thinks it likely that she will follow in her mother’s footsteps. Having a chance to see how her mother works has given her more self-confidence.

Experts believe that girls with higher self-confidence aim higher and are more likely to be successful in life. Parents have the most important effect on the confidence of teenage girls. If parents believe in their daughters and show examples both at work as well as at home for them, this will give a lot of help to girls. Take Our Daughters to Work Day is surely a step in the right direction.

1.What is the topic of this passage?

A. Raising daughters’ self-confidence.

B. Take Our Daughters to Work Day.

C. Equally between boys and girls.

D. Following mothers’ footsteps.

2.It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that ________.

A. women pilots are popular in Britain

B. girls are sure about their future jobs

C. people have wrongly believed that girls can do as well as boys

D. for many years boys have had a relatively wider choice of work

3.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. Take Our Daughters to Work Day is British in origin.

B. Palmers Green favors Take Our Daughters to Work Day.

C. On the Day children are taken to their parent’s work places.

D. Parents in Britain show good examples both at work and at home.

4.After her experience on Take Our Daughters to Work Day, Zarina felt ________.

A. confident about finding a job in the future

B. strange to watch her mother working in the office

C. sure about what to choose as her future career

D. interested in doing the same job as her mother

5.The author’s attitude towards the Day is ________.

A. favorable B. unclear C. critical D. neutral

B

“Folk singers are more like poets than singers,” Li Yahe, a music businessman, once told China Youth Daily.

That saying perfectly describes Zhang Lei, the 34-year-old champion of the fourth “Voice of China” singing competition, which ended on Oct 7.

Critics thought Zhang's success as a victory for folk singers.The Voice of China used to attach great importance to singing skills and vocal techniques, which are not necessarily what folk singers are good at.“Folk songs are more about emotions and storytelling,” said Li.

Folk is one of the oldest musical styles.It dates back to ancient times, when people sang about their everyday lives and the society around them.

A powerful comeback

Folk music became popular again in the Western world in the 1960s.During social revolutions, many young Westerners turned to the simple rhythms of folk.Pioneers included US singer Bob Dylan, whose songs are reflections of some social issues like the Vietnam War.Singers at that time used traditional folk instruments like the banjo, the upright bass, the mandolin and the piano.

In the late 1970s, folk music was introduced to Taiwan.The rise of singers like Lo Tayu and Chyi Yu popularized folk music, particularly among young Chinese people.

At that time, folk tunes were based on simple song structures, with pleasant chord progression and pretty lyrics, just like during old times.But they focused more on the dreams and sorrow of youth than on politics.

This continued to be the case when the folk “wave” swept Chinese mainland in the 1990s.

Folk pioneers

Sadly, it didn't last long in China.Folk gave way to pop in the late 1990s, when people started living more fast-paced lives.But that didn't mean folk music had disappeared from the music world entirely.

“The drop in the popularity of folk songs is because the business mode of the music industry is outdated, not because of the music itself,” folk singer Song Ke once said.

He was right.Recent years have seen folk songs gaining popularity, with the appearance of singers like Li Jian and Song Dongye.

“The popularity of the Internet has shocked the traditional profit model in music industry,” Lu Zhongqiang, manager of 13-Month, a music recording and publishing company, told Tencent Entertainment.

“Not-so-well-known music starts showing its strength when the production of mainstream music is declining,” he added.

1.Which would be the best title of the passage?

A.The History of Folk Music

B.Folk Music Pioneers

C.The Folk Music Industry

D.The Voice of China

2.The underlined world “it” in the last but four paragraph means________.

A.the popularity of folk music

B.the focus of folk music

C.the tradition of folk pioneers

D.the new model of pop music

3.Which statement is true according to the passage?

A.The Voice of China is very popular among young Chinese people

B.Folk music once was a way to voice opinions about social issues

C.Folk songs are more about expressing emotions than storytelling

D.Outdated music mode is what leads to the decline of folk songs

4.Which word can best describe the attitude of Lu Zhongqiang towards folk music?

A.Objective

B.Confident

C.Critical

D.Worried

Many animals recognize their food because they see it.So do humans.When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate,you know that these are things you can eat.You can also use other senses when you choose your food.You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good.You may dislike some types of food because they do not look,smell or taste very nice.Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food.A few animals depend on only one of their senses,while most animals use more than one sense.

When I was superintendent of schools in Palo Alto, California, Polly Tyner, the president of our board of trustees(董事會), wrote a letter that was printed in the Palo Alto Times. Polly's son, Jim, had great difficulty in school. He was classified as educationally handicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. His parents acknowledged his academic difficulties, but always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. Shortly after Jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. After his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper.

Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was killed instantly in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known when I talked to him last that it would be the last time. If I had only known I would have said, "Jim, I love you and I'm so very proud of you."

I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he brought to the lives of the many who loved him. I would have taken time to appreciate his beautiful smile, the sound of his laughter, his genuine love of people.

When you put all the good attributes on the scale(天平) and you try to balance all the irritating traits such as the radio which was always too loud, the haircut that wasn't to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., the irritations don't amount to much.

I won't get another chance to tell my son all I would have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, you do have a chance. Tell your young people what you would want them to hear if you knew it would be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was the day he died. He called me to say, "Hi, Mom! I just called to say I love you. Got to go to work. Bye." He gave me something to treasure forever.

If there is any purpose at all to Jim's death, maybe it is to make others appreciate more of life and to have people, especially families, take the time to let each other know just how much we care.

You may never have another chance. Do it today!

1.Which of the following is NOT true about Jim?

A. He was a boy handicapped and needed lots of patience.

B. He was an optimistic child and was sincere and kind to others.

C. He found a job after his graduation from high school.

D. He held a positive attitude to life despite his great difficulty in learning.

2.The letter submitted by Jim’s mother is intended to____________.

A. be in memory of her son who died at an early age

B. appeal to people to pay attention to road safety

C. remind people to cherish their friends and families

D. show the great sorrow when parents lost their child

3.The underlined word “traits” in the fourth paragraph probably means___________.

A. portraits B. Qualities C. arguments D. habits

4.The passage is most probably entitled__________.

A. A Heart-broken Story B. Memories About Jim

C. Great Parental Love D. Do It Today
