7、Talking to Teachers—Teachers are just people．Behind that desk, is a living, breathing human being．And just like any human being, they will probably be friendly to people who talk nicely to them．Teachers also seem to get along better with children who take schoolwork seriously and are prepared for class．And, just like any other human being, teachers like to be appreciated．The next time your teacher helps you solve a math problem or figure out a science project, say thank you with a smile.

Talking to Parents—Parents can be very supportive if their children ask for help．If you think there’s something your parents can do to help you socialize more or feel more comfortable around people, then ask them．Very often, parents want very much to help, but really don’t know what to do．Pick a quiet time of the day and ask to talk．Tell them how you feel．Maybe they had the same trouble when they were kids.

This Stranger Thing—This is always a tough one．How do you deal with a neighbor, the mail carrier, or someone walking down your street—situations that often seem to cause arguments between kids and parents．The answer to these questions will vary from kid to kid, from parent to parent because all cultures are different．Some folks live in small towns where a hello to everyone is “what’s done”．Then there are kids who live in the city who may have been taught not to speak to anyone they don’t know．If you’re having trouble with this and always feel awkward in these kinds of situations, you might want to talk to your parents or a teacher about it．Where do they think you should draw the line? When is silence rude and when is it wise?

1．From the first paragraph we may learn that teachers dislike____ .

  A．being talked to nicely

  B．their students to be serious with the schoolwork

  C．the students’ appreciation

  D．the students who are not ready for classes

2．If your parents are not supportive and you are not getting along quite well with your parents, who or what is to blame?

  A．Your parents.                                      B．Yourself.

  C．Lack of communication.                      D．Your teachers.

3．The underlined word in the third paragraph is close in meaning to____.

  A．a(chǎn)fraid                  B．puzzled                C．strange                D．familiar

4．The passage doesn’t say but it implies that in daily communication____.

  A．a(chǎn)rguments often happen between kids and parents

  B．we should talk to the neighbors and other people according to different cultures

  C．city people and country people greet in the same way

  D．we should fit our words with proper situations

6、If you have been joining in chat room conversations, or trading email with web pals （網(wǎng)友）, you have become one of the millions who write in a peculiarly short form of English.

And you’ve got a sense of humor about short forms like SOHF （= sense of humor failure） to describe Internet newcomers who don’t understand you.

Across the globe, every night teenagers and their elders are “talking online”, many of them all talking at the same time.

It’s fast: try talking to six people at once．It’s brief: three or four words per exchange．It takes wit, concentration, and quick fingers.

And it requires tremendous linguistic economy （語(yǔ)言省略）．There’s neither time nor space for explanations．Why consume precious key-strokes （鍵盤敲擊） telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB（ = be right back） will do?

Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI （= pardon me for jumping in）.

Interested in whom you are talking to? Type A/S/L, the nearly universal request to know your pal’s age, sex and location．You may get 15/M/NY as a response from your pal.

If something makes you laugh, say you are OTF （= on the floor）, or LOL （= laughing out loud）, or combing the two into ROTFL （= rolling on the floor laughing） .

And when it is time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG （= got to go） or TTYL （=talk to you later）.

People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can．Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing emotion, as it takes, more time to hold down the “shift” key and capitals．Punctuation （標(biāo)點(diǎn)） is going, too．

1．Many people talk on the Internet ______.

  A．by sending short emails

  B．by using a particular short form of English

  C．by using peculiar English words and expression

  D．in a funny way

2．In order to talk to several people at the same time on the Internet ______.

  A．you have to speak fast and fluently

  B．you should speak with wit and humor

  C．you have to express your ideas in a brief way

  D．one should pay much attention to the accuracy of words

3．If you get 17/F/NY as an answer to your A/S/L, it means______.

  A．the person on the other end is 17 from New York and he is fine

  B．you are talking to a girl who is 17 and lives in New York

  C．you are talking to 17 girls who are from New York

  D．the person who you are talking to is a 17-foot tall New York girl

4．To save time on the Internet, __________.

  A．some people leave their letters in the dustbin  

  B．some people never use “shift” in their writing

  C．many people leave the capital and punctuation 

  D．people seldom use capital letters or punctuation

5、Julio loves to visit his grandmother．He doesn’t get to visit her very often because his family lives in a city that is six hours away．His grandmother lives in a big wooden house on a farm. It is old and looks as if it has secret hiding places.

       A big porch（走廊）wraps around two sides of the house .Julio sat in the porch swing. He could see the trees that circle the house．They had been planted as a windbreak. They protect the house from the wind and blowing dirt. The house is in the middle of a large, flat field.

       Julio watched the dirt road that leads to the house. He couldn’t wait for his cousins to get there! Mario was his age, and Linda was a year younger. They had fun together. Last summer they spent one whole morning making a fort out of sacks of seed. Then Uncle Henry had taken them on a tractor ride.

4、Jones worked so hard that made the sparks fly from his hammer．The son of Mr．Smith, a rich neighbor, used to come to see the blacksmith and he would enjoy himself watching how the tradesman worked．"Why don't you try your hand to learn to make shoe tacks?" said the blacksmith．"Who knows, one day, it may be of use to you." The lazy boy began to see what he could do．But after a little practice he found that he was becoming very skilled and soon he was making some of the finest tacks.

Old Mr. Smith died and the son on account of the war lost all his goods．He had to leave home and was forced to take up residence in another country．It so happened that in this village there were numerous shoemakers who were spending a lot of money to buy tacks for their shoes and even at times when they paid high prices they were not always able to get what they wanted, because in that part of the country there was a high demand for soldiers' shoes.

Young Smith, who was finding it difficult to earn his daily bread, remembered that he had learned the art of making tacks and had the sudden idea of making a bargain with the shoemakers．He told them that he would make the tacks if they would help to get him settled in his workshop．The shoemakers were only too glad of the offer．"How funny it seems," he used to say, "even making tacks can bring a fortune．My trade is more useful to me than were all my former riches."

3、One morning, a young man leading a goat lost his way due to the thick mist．Then he met a blind man and asked whether he also lost his way．The blind man said, “I cannot see anything．Therefore, the mist doesn’t affect me．I followed the path in my memory and it never goes wrong.”

Happily the young man led the goat following him forward．The blind man asked where he was going．He said he wanted to sell his goat．“Male or female? How many years have you kept it?” The young man spoke without too much thought, “A female goat of 3 years!”

The young man was still following the blind man when he was grasped the hand by the blind man．He shouted, “Here is the police station! Go into it and elaborate on how you stole the goat!”

The young man had been a thief for a long time and admitted the goat was stolen by him．He asked the blind man puzzlingly, “But how do you know I am a thief?”

The blind man smiled, “I have been keeping goats for decades and can tell one of them is male or female as well as their age according to their voices．The goat you led just now is obviously a male goat, but you said female．The goat is simply a little more than one year old, but you said you had kept it for three years．Moreover, the goat will bleat totally differently when he is led by a stranger instead of his owner．So I can tell the goat does not belong to you!” Only then did the thief understand the whole thing with his head dropped down．
