24、阅读理解。

Do you know Roma people? They were called Gypsies（吉普赛人）by Europeans because they thought they came from Egypt(a country in Africa). About a thousand years ago, the Roma people left their homeland. They are known as nomads because for hundreds of years many of them have lived in large groups that travel from place to place. They have no real homeland.

Today, the Roma are now living all over the world. They have kept their language and many customs. For example, it’s important for Roma to marry other Roma. It’s also a custom for parents to choose the person their children will marry. Roma people get married when they are young, sometimes even as young as 14.

Romany is the language of the Roma people, which was written down only recently. Because the Roma are nomadic and have moved all over the world, their language has developed in many different ways. It is sometimes hard for Roma in one part of the world to understand Roma from another part.

Roma music is famous all over the world, because many Roma throughout history have been musicians. Their music has influenced many other kinds of music, like classical and jazz.

Roma don’t usually assimilate（同化） into host countries. Over many centuries, governments have forbidden them to marry each other, travel or wear their traditional bright clothes. They have their gold taken away from them-treasures（财富） from their parents and grandparents. They have been taken as slaves（奴隶）, and have been forced to change their names.

But today, the Roma are finding ways to live in peace with others while keeping the treasures of their culture. “There is a will within us to continue to live as a people,” says George Kaslov, whose family arrived in New York from Russia a hundred years ago. “All the other ethnic（种族） groups who came to America assimilate gradually with time going; they lose their customs and language. But not the Roma, We hold out.”

【1】What does the underlined word “nomads” in the 1st paragraph mean?

A. People who move from place to place.

B. People who come from Roma.

C. People who have their own homeland.

【2】What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?

A. George Kaslov has a strong will to live on.

B. The Roma still keep their customs and language.

C. The Roma are finding ways to keep the gold of their own.

【3】What can we infer（推断） about the Roma according to the passage?

A. Most of the Roma live in very unusual houses.

B. Most Roma get married either when they are very young or very old.

C. Their culture is very different from other European cultures.

【4】What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To tell readers about an interesting culture.

B. To tell us why the Roma need our help.

C. To show us how all people are similar.

【5】What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Brave Roma Travelers

B. Famous Roma Music.

C. The Roma: Past and Present

25、Sing the Language You're Learning

How can you remember a song from your childhood to this day? Why do your teachers use songs to teach you English? It seems there is a scientific reason for this.

Researchers are now studying the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They find that remembering words in a song is the best way to remember even the most difficult language.

“Singing could be a new way of learning a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are used in a catchy and meaningful way，” said Dr. Karen Ludke. The findings may help those who have difficulty learning foreign languages. On his blog, Dr. Ludke writes, “A listenandrepeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and open the door for future research in this area.”

Many language teachers know the value of using music and singing. Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in Washington D. C., depends heavily on songs in teaching Chinese. She says, “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids we usually use English songs but teach them the Chinese lyrics. So it's easy for them to start because they know the music. Not only does it work, but it is fun for the kids.”

“Sometimes, I think if I were taught English that way, maybe I would speak much better English than now，” Hua Zhuying adds.

Our brain likes music, especially for remembering. So, if you're still struggling in learning a language, why not try singing it out?

【1】According to the passage, the best way to remember a foreign language is to________.

A. read and write more   B. listen to the teacher carefully

C. copy the words many times   D. remember words in a song

【2】The underlined word “catchy” probably means “________” in Chinese.

A. 艰涩难懂的   B. 悦耳易记的

C. 枯燥乏味的   D. 震耳欲聋的

【3】Dr. Ludke believes that foreign language learning can be supported by________.

A. using the listenandrepeat singing method

B. listening to all kinds of famous music

C. writing songs with the language

D. reading the lyrics again and again

【4】From the passage, we know that Hua Zhuying ________.

A. is interested in writing English songs

B. teaches children English by using music

C. teaches Chinese in an American school

D. is a researcher in a language school

【5】The passage mainly tells us that________.

A. many researchers realize the importance of language studying

B. your brain remembers a language better if you sing it

C. many language teachers know the value of famous music

D. you will never learn a language well unless you can sing

26、   It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.

Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail(详细地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.

Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.

I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.

【1】People with little education usually ________.

A.spend a long time in school B.have a good chance to get a job

C.spend the best years to choose jobs D.have fewer chances to get a good job

【2】The earliest education was probably to________.

A.make a man lead a better life B.teach a man to write and think

C.make people get a way of living D.teach people to read good books

【3】The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “________” in Chinese.

A.圆满的 B.崭新的 C.公平的 D.全面的

【4】It is expected that educated people will be able to ________.

A.accept education as a way of living B.take an interest in the whole world

C.develop their abilities to make plays D.learn subjects like language and math

【5】The passage mainly tells us that ________.

A.education should make a man improve B.people can get education in a short time

C.people should be able to get better paying jobs D.all subjects are so important for a way of living
