Jeans are trousers made of a kind of clothe called denim. For many people, blue jeans represent American culture.
The history of blue jeans usually begins with a man named Levi Strauss. Although he did not invent the jeans, he is considered the first person to produce and sell this kind of clothing in large amounts.
Levi Strauss was born in Bavaria, Germany. In 1847, he and his family moved to the US. He opened a store, first in New York, and then in San Francisco, California. Among the products he sold were jeans. These trousers were especially useful for miners in California who needed clothing made of a strong material.
Levi Strauss partnered with a clothing maker named Jacob Davis, who had invented a process for making rivets(鉚釘) for jeans. These metal things helped strengthen the blue jean cloth to make the trousers stronger. In 1873, Strauss and Davis received a patent to officially own this invention. They began producing “ copper-riveted waist overalls(工裝褲)”. In 1928 the Levi Strauss company used the word “Levi’s” as the trademark for their products.
The 19th-century workers would probably be surprised to know that their trousers would one day become a fashion object. Today, jeans are worn by people of all ages, incomes and lifestyles. Jeans come in many colors other than blue and in many styles and at many prices.
A national museum in Washington, D.C. has one of the oldest known pairs of Levi’s jeans in its collection. Jeans have come to express different ideas about American culture based on the people who wear them. These include the heroes of the Wild West and famous Hollywood actors like James Dean and Marlon Brando in the 1950s. Writer James Sullivan published a book called Jean: A Cultural History of an American Icon. In the book, he says jeans serve as a sign for two American values, creativity and rebellion (叛逆).

To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.
Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit still before his class:he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about.
The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.
A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play：they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience, which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along.
I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.
1.
What is the text about?
|
A．How to become a good teacher. |
|
B．What a good teacher should do outside the classroom. |
|
C．What teachers and actors could learn from each other? |
|
D．The similarities (相似處) and differences between a teacher’s work and an actor’s. |
2.
The word “audience” in the fourth paragraph means ____.
|
A．students |
B．people who watch a play |
|
C．people who not on the stage |
D．people who listen to something |
3.
A good teacher ____.
|
A．knows how to hold the interest of his students |
B．must have a good voice |
|
C．knows how to act on the stage |
D．stands or sits still while teaching |
4.
In what way is a teacher’s work different from an actor’s?
|
A．The teacher must learn everything by heart. |
|
B．He knows how to control his voice better than an actor. |
|
C．He has to deal with unexpected situations. |
|
D．He has to use more facial expressions. |
5.
The main difference between students in class and a theatre audience is that ____.
|
A．students can move around in the classroom |
|
B．students must keep silent while theatre audience needn’t |
|
C．no memory work is needed for the students |
|
D．the students must take part in their teachers’ plays |

科目：高中英語 來源：20102011學年度江西省下學期第一次段考高二英語卷 題型：閱讀理解
Many parents who welcome the idea of turning off the TV and spending more time with the family are still worried that without TV they would constantly be on call as entertainers for their children. They remember thinking up all sorts of things to do when they were kids. But their own kids seem different, less resourceful, somehow. When there’s nothing to do, these parents observe regretfully, their kids seem unable to come up with anything to do besides turning on the TV.
One father, for example, says, “When I was a kid, we were always thinking up things to do, projects and games. We certainly never complained in an annoying way to our parents. ‘I have nothing to do’.” He compares this with his own children today: “They’re simply lazy. If someone doesn’t entertain them, they’ll happily sit there watching TV all day.”
There is one word for this father’s disappointment: unfair. It is as if he were disappointed in them for not reading Greek though they have never studied the language. He deplores (哀嘆) his children’s lack of inventiveness, as if the ability to play were something born that his children are missing. In fact, while the tendency to play is built into the human species, the actual ability to play – to imagine, to invent, to elaborate on reality in a playful way –and the ability to gain fulfillment from it, these are skills that have to be learned and developed.
Such disappointment, however, is not only unjust, it is also destructive. Sensing their parents’ disappointment, children come to believe that they are, indeed, lacking something, and that this makes them less worthy of admiration and respect. Giving children the opportunity to develop new resources, to enlarge their horizons and discover the pleasure of doing things on their own is, on the other hand, a way to help children develop a confident feeling about themselves as capable and interesting people.
1. According to many parents, if there’s nothing to do, the children would .
A. turn on the TV B. complain to their parents
C. ask their parents to play with them D. do all of the above
2. Many parents think that, instead of watching a lot of TV their children should .
A. sit silently studying Greek B. think up things to entertain themselves
C. find chances to talk with parents D. enjoy themselves outdoors
3.The father often blames their children for not being able to entertain themselves. This is unfair because .
A. the children are not really lazy, but there’s nothing for them to do
B. they do not lack the ability to play
C. they have to learn and develop their playing ability gradually
D. the father have done nothing to help the children
4. When parents show constant disappointment in their children, the children will .
A. lose their confidence and respectability
B. be much more disappointed
C. refuse to learn new things
D. discover the pleasures of doing things on their own
5.What is the author’s main idea?
A. Today’s children are becoming less capable and independent than before.
B. Parents should give children more help on how to be creative.
C. Turning off the TV will help us solve a lot of family problems.
D. It’s not just for parents and children to complain each other.
