When I was studying English at a training center in Washington D.C. in 2008, I shared a house with two young Americans, Jim and Steve. Jim was studying French and Steve Chinese, both at the Foreign Service Institute. We shared many things in common, but we also thought and acted quite differently. Steve was interested in speaking Chinese. He always tried every opportunity to talk with me with his very English-like pronunciation. I was often touched with his diligence. However, I wanted to practice English with him, too. So we often spoke at the same time in the other’s mother tongue. Jim was fresh from college and the youngest of the three. He was going out all the time. The only time we met was at breakfast. There was a small round table in our kitchen, where we saw around to enjoy our food. Steve had Chinese fast food such as dumplings or noodles, and I ate bread and boiled eggs. But Jim often just drank a cup of tea because he had nothing in his fridge. He was too busy dating pretty French girls to do any shopping. I often offered him some of my food. But Steve told me in his poor Chinese that I didn’t need to do that. He said that it was Jim’s own fault and that it served him right. Although he was learning Chinese, he still had his American sense of values.
Two years later, I returned to China. The three of us still keep in touch. Jim now works in a travel agency in Paris. He got married to one of the pretty girls. He wrote to tell us that he can now enjoy a delicious breakfast with his beautiful wife every morning in their comfortable living room. Steve wants to work in China. And I’m helping him with this. I have introduced him to the dean of the Overseas Section of our university. He is very interested in Steve. He wants to know if Steve can work here teaching the overseas students Chinese. I have sent the message to Steve. I’m sure he’d be very happy to accept the job. However, I hope he could try harder to improve himself. Otherwise, all the overseas students would speak with his terrible pronunciation!

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
When I was studying at Yale, some phenomena puzzled me greatly. I found that Chinese students or Asian students were very polite in class while American students often interrupted the professor, asking questions and dominating the discussion. The Chinese students were not as aggressive as American students.
I was impressed by the role of the professor in the seminar(讨论会). The professor didn’t act as an authority, giving final conclusions, but as a reseac her looking for answers to questions together with the students. One lingui stic(语言的) feature of his interacting with his students was that he used many modal(情态的) verbs—far more than I did in Beiwai. When answering questions, he usually said, “This is my personal opinion and it could be wrong.” or “You could be right, but you might find this point of view also interesting.”
In China, authorities are always supposed to give wise decisions and correct di rections. Therefore, students always expect the professor to give an answer to th e question. I still remember how frustrated they were when foreign teachers did not provide such an answer. Their expectations from authorities are much higher than that of American students. Once the Chinese students got the answer, they w ere sure about it.
Education in China is valued for united thinking. I remember American teachers who taught in our university complaining about the fact that Chinese students u niformly expressed the same idea in their English composition. The examinations in America usually do not test a student’s ability to memorize the material but his ability to analyze and solve problems. Education in America is valued not on ly as a means to obtain employment but as a process of enhancing critical thinking.
31.In the USA, when the students are in class, ____.
A.a Chinese student tends to be very active
B.an American student likes to make trouble
C.a Chinese student likes to puzzle the teacher
D.an American student tends to be vigorous
32.A teacher in the USA prefers to ____ when he answers questions.
A.be very sincere B.be very direct
C.be very self confident D.be very indifferent
33.What is the opinion of the author concerning the difference of teachin g methods between China and the USA?
A.He thinks that Chinese teaching metods can make students learn more.
B.He holds that the major purpose of Chinese teaching methods is to impro ve students’ remembrance.
C.He thinks that American teaching is ability oriented.
D.He holds that American teachers hate to give a test.
34.The author thinks that the relationship between the student and the te acher is ____.
A.more intimate in China B.closer in China
C.looser in USA D.more harmonious in USA
35.The education in USA may produce some ____ graduates.
A.talkative B.conventional C.creative D.imaginative
第7题
W1: Yes, Professor Baker, I speak Spanish and French.
M: And what helped you most in learning those languages?
W1: What helped me most ... well, I studied both languages in high school, and I'm still studying Spanish here at the University, but I think that travel has probably been the most help to me. You see, I've been lucky in that I've lived in Europe. Believe me, I didn't speak very well before I moved there. What do you think of this, Jill?
W2: You're right, Betty, after studying a language, practice is very useful. When you live in a country where the language is spoken, it's ideal. But, you know, sometimes it's difficult to make friends in a new place, even then the people are very friendly.
W1: Yes, I know what you mean. Especially if you don't speak the language too well. I had some problems when I first moved to Europe.
W2: And, of course, some people are shy.
W: That's true.
W2: Professor Baker, whether or not I'm in a country where the language is spoken, I always go to the movies, and whenever I can, 1 watch TV or listen to the radio in the language I'm trying to learn.
W2: Me too. And reading is another way to learn. Books are good, but I think that newspapers and magazines are even better.
M: Probably the best way to learn is to combine all of these ideas: traveling, talking with people, going to movies, watching TV, listening to the radio, and reading books, newspapers and magazines. What do you think?
W1: I agree with that, Professor Baker.
W2: So do I. But I don't believe that it's possible to take advantage of practice opportunities without some knowledge of the language first.
W1:Sure. First it's a good idea to study grammar, vocabulary...
W2: ... and listening, perhaps even reading.
W1: Then practice is very, very helpful.
(23)
A.Language laboratory.
B.Traveling.
C.Studying in high school.
D.Going to movies and watching TV.
