There are many types of maps in the world. Most of them are widely used in our everyday life. Different maps have different uses.When we are in a new place, a proper map may help us solve the problems easily.

Tourist (游客) maps, for example, have signs to show places of interest in an area.When tourists read these maps,it is easy for them to find where to go and what to see in a place and it is easy for them to go and find their ways to these places, too.

Road maps show large areas so that people can plan long trips. We use different numbers to stand for different roads. For example, if you want to go to Wood Green, you just follow No. 621 Road and keep looking at the road signs.

Distribution (分布) maps use colors or signs to show facts about an area. For example, what languages people speak, how many people live in an area, how cold and hot some places are, or whether a place is short of water.

Some maps, such as railway maps, use straight lines to show everything. It is easy for people to read them. Trains are fast. People don’t have to think about small places they go past. They just need to know the two ends of their trips.

【1】People can tell different roads by________on road maps.

A.showing large areas B.finding different colors

C.looking at the road signs D.using different numbers

【2】Which is TRUE about a distribution map?

B.It is helpful for people to make a plan before a long trip.

C.We can use it to show how many people live in an area.

D.We need to use straight lines to show everything in the map.

【3】Railway maps use straight lines because________.

22、   Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.

Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.

Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.

You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure (失败). In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame (责备) themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk (风险) taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.

For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don't forget — if you are shy, you are not the only one.

【1】What can you learn from the passage?

A.Most little babies are born shy and quiet.

B.If you are shy now, you will be shy forever.

C.Most Israeli people are shy of expressing opinions.

D.Many shy children have older brothers and sisters.

【2】What can cause shyness according to the passage?

A.Genetics, grow-ups and birthplace. B.Family size, grow-ups and failure.

C.Genetics, family size and birthplace. D.Genetics, family size and failure.

【3】What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To encourage people to study shyness more. B.To introduce the reasons why people are shy.

C.To explain why scientists study shyness. D.To show why shyness makes people fail.

23、   The Wilsons decided to go overseas for a vacation. They had a family meeting to plan the vacation.

“First,” Mr. Wilson said, “we should decide where we want to go.”

“I don’t agree,” Mrs. Wilson said. “I think we should decide when we want to go first. We don’t want to go to some countries where it’s cold.”

Mr. Wilson agreed, so the family’s first decision was when to go on vacation. They decided to go in July, when it’s warm throughout the northern hemisphere(半球).

 “Now we can decide where to go,” Mr. Wilson said.

“But, Dad,” Ben said, “don’t you think that where we go depends on how we go? If we plan to fly, we can go a long way. If we plan to drive, we can’t go so far.”

Again Mr. Wilson agreed, and they discussed this. At last they agreed to travel by plane.

Then Mr. Wilson said, “Now, where do we want to go?”

 “Actually, Dad,” Trudy said, “l think we should work out how many days we’ll have before we can decide where to go.”

And so the meeting went on. The next day, one of Mr. Wilson’s friends at work asked, “Have you planned your vacation yet?”

“We’ve decided when we want to go, how we want to get there and how many days we can spend,” Mr. Wilson told him, “but we still haven’t decided where we’re going!”

24、A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school. He began his lesson by holding up a ¥ 100 bill. Then he said to the three hundred students, “Who would like this  ¥ 100 bill?” The students began to put up their hands at once.

Then he said, “I am going to give this ¥100 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball. Then he said, “Who wants it now?” The hands went back into the air.

“Well,” he said, “what if I do this?” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it. He picked up the dirty, crumpled bill and said, “who still wants it?” Hands went back into the air.

“My friends,” he said, “you have learned a valuable lesson today. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value. It was still worth ¥100!”

Many times in our lives, we are dropped , crumpled, and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen to us. We feel as if we are worth nothing. But remember, no matter what has happened to you, you will never lose your value: you are always valuable to those people who love you.
