21.[阅读理解]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 students; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under you 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 move motionless 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 explanation, and his face to express his feeling. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and 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 he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher's word and the actor's. The actor has to speak words which has been 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 suit his act to 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 their brains wouldn't keep discipline: they could not keep strictly to what another had written.
1In 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.2The main difference between students in class and theatre audience is that ( ).
    A.students can move around in the classroom    B.students must keep silent while theatre audience    C.no memory work is needed for the students    D.the students must take part in their teachers' plays3A 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 motionless while teaching

22.[阅读理解]How can a single postage stamp be worth $16 800? Any mistake made in the printing of a stamp raises its value to stamp collectors. A mistake on one inexpensive postage stamp has made the stamp worth a million and a half times its original value. The mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in the British colony Mauritius , a small island in the Indian Ocean. In 1847 an order for stamps was sent to a London printer – Mauritius was to become the fourth country in the world to issue stamps. Before the order was filled and delivered, a ball was planned at Mauritius ’ Government House, and stamps were needed to send out the invitations. A local printer was instructed to copy the design for the stamps. He accidentally marked the words " Post Office" instead of " Post Paid" on the several hundred stamps that he printed. Today there are only twenty-six of these misprinted stamps left—fourteen One-Penny Orange-Reds and twelve Two-Penny Blues. Because of the Two-Penny Blue's rareness and age, collectors have paid as much as $ 16800 for it.
4The mistake in the locally printed postage stamps was in the ____.
    A.price
    B.wording

23.[阅读理解]Most animals have little connection with animals of different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership ( 伙伴关系 ) which does good to both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites  （寄生虫 ) on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other, they do better together.   Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals ( 珊瑚 ) of the sea. In their skins they have tiny plants act as "dustman", taking some of the waste products form the corals and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are ever prevented from lighting so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.

24.[阅读理解]How can English teachers accelerate the language learning of their students? One way is to teach students how to learn more effectively and efficiently. Learning strategies are "Procedures or techniques that learners can use to facilitate a learning task." Instructing students of English in learning strategies can help them become better learners.

Students who reflect on their own thinking are more likely to engage in planning how to proceed with a learning task, monitoring their own performance on an ongoing basis, finding solutions to problems encountered, and evaluating themselves upon task completion.

25.[阅读理解]Exercise is one of the few factors with a positive role in long-term maintenance of body weight. Unfortunately, that message has not gotten through to the average American, who would rather try switching to “light” beer and low-calorie bread than increase physical exertion. Doctors found that less than one-fourth of overweight adults who were trying to reduce weight said they were combining exercise with their diet.   Still, exercise’s supporting role in weight reduction is necessary. A study confirmed that those who dieted without exercise regained almost all their old weight, while those who worked exercise into their daily routine maintained their new weight.   If you have been sedentary and decide to start walking one mile a day, the added exercise could burn an extra 100 calories daily. In a year’ time, assuming no increase in food intake, you could lost ten pounds. By increasing the distance of your walks gradually and making other dietary adjustments, you may lose even more weight.
18When American people decided to lose their weight, what would they rather try? ( )
    A.To do exercise.
    B.To try some “light” beer.
    C.To try some “light” beer and low-calorie bread.
    D.To try both A and C.
19This passage is mainly about ( ).
    A.the meaning of exercise
    B.the way to reduce weight
    C.the relation between lose weight and exercise
    D.the importance of losing weight
20The word “reduce” (Para. 1 ) probably means ( ).
    A.decrease
    B.lose
    C.lessen
    D.cut down
21The following statements are true except ( ).
    A.If people try some special food such as “light” beer when they want to lose weight, they would not regain their old weight.
    B.Both the diet and exercise play an important role in losing weight.
    C.Few American people who were trying to reduce weight would do exercise with their diet.
    D.If people walk one mile daily, and keep doing so for one year with diet, he would lost ten pounds.
22According to the passage, what is the advantage of exercise mentioned by the author? ( )
    A.It can help you keep good health.
    B.It can help you maintain body weight.
    C.It can help you get rid of illness.
