When Andy came to school, he was surprised to find he was the first to arrive that day. “Where is Susie?” he thought.   【1】  She was the smartest student in the class and was always the earliest to class. Andy was always the second smartest and the second earliest.

24、MSG (monosodium glutamate) is a food additive (食品添加剂), which has been widely used by many food factories all over the world since it appeared first in Japan in 1909.

MSG is a substance that is added to some food to improve its original (原先的) taste and colour. It is used in foods around the world such as cakes, bread, frozen meats, fish and vegetables. In the beginning, people thought MSG was safe just like salt and sugar. However, in 1968 some people reported they seemed to have bad reactions (反应) to MSG after having had a meal at a restaurant. They included headaches and quick heartbeat (心跳). It was also reported that MSG excited a person's brain and caused his death in Japan. Scientists think that MSG may lead to many neurological disorders (神经紊乱). In mice studies done by a university, the evidence showed the mice didn’t want to eat the food including MSG.

Today many food companies “hide” MSG on food labels (标签) by using different names. If you see “natural flavorings”, “hydrolyzed protein” and “spices” in a food label, you are probably seeing a hidden way to “report” MSG in a food label. Every time we have a meal in a restaurant, we always feel the food very delicious to taste, but sometimes it is dangerous for our health because some poisonous food additives have been added to the food.

To protect people’s health, our governments, from central to local, are taking actions to stop factories producing poisonous food additives.

27、   If you are teaching English or another language, you might find your ideas challenged. There might be different opinions of your role, which can result in misunderstandings. So what should you look out for when teaching students that are from different cultures from your own?

Lauren, a teacher, wanted to make her lessons meet her learners’ needs and interests. She started to ask the students what they’d like to do on the course. One of the learners asked “Shouldn’t it be your job to tell us what we need and what we should be doing?”

On the other side of the earth, Ron was facing the same problem. He believed that learners remember information best when they teach each other. So, he had them take turns to give the lesson while he watched from the back of the room. A group of learners did not understand him and said he was not a good teacher.

The role of education is changing, and so is the role of the teacher. Some believe that the traditional role of the teacher as a knowledge transmitter(传播者) is out of date, and that teachers should instead encourage learning, by helping learners to learn by themselves and to think seriously about the information they find.

Some, however, prefer to see the teacher as the expert who is good enough to tell their learners what should be learned and what they should do to learn it. Lessons are teacher-centered in this situation, a time for learners to listen and learn.

By talking about your ways and discussing the reasons behind the decisions you make, you can help learners understand how they might benefit(获益) from your choices.

【1】Lauren asked her students________.

A.what kind of teacher they liked B.what they preferred to learn in class

C.what courses they were interested in D.what difficulty they had in taking the course

【2】Why were some learners dissatisfied with Ron?

A.He didn’t do his teaching. B.He didn’t stand in the front.

C.He didn’t walk in the classroom. D.He didn’t deal with any problems.

【3】The traditional role of a teacher should ________.

A.teach students to think seriously B.change students’ view of life

C.pass knowledge on to students D.guide students in self-study

【4】What do some people think of teachers in teacher-centered classrooms?

A.They respect students’ choices. B.They ask students a lot of questions.

C.They decide what to learn in class. D.They develop lesson plans together with students.

28、What do you know about the sea? We know that it l【1】 very beautiful when the sun is shining on it. We a【2】 know that it can be very rough(汹涌的) when there is a strong wind. What other t 【3】 do you know about it?

The first thing to remember is that the sea is very big. When you look at the m【4】 of the world you will find there is more sea than land. The sea covers three quarters of the world. Some parts of the sea are shallow(浅的). But in some places the sea is very deep. The h【5】mountain in the world is about 9 kilometers high. But the deepest place of the sea is n【6】 11 kilometers deep.

The sea can be very cold. At the top, the water may be warm. But if you go down, it b【7】colder and colder. In most parts of the sea, there are l【8】of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea. O【9】live deep down.

You know that the sea is salty. If you swim in the sea, you can taste the salt. Some parts of the sea are more salty than other places. For example, the Dead Sea is so salty that swimmers can’t sink(下沉) in it! And fish can’t live in it, either. What a s【10】 sea!

29、My mother was the one who always beat me. I always cried loudly to let neighbors _______ she was killing me. For example, if she acted as though she was about to _______ her hand to me, I would open my _______ and let the world know about it. If anybody was passing by out on the road, _______ would either change her mind or just give me a few light touches.

Thinking about it now, I feel certain that just as my father supported me for being _______ than the other children, my mother gave me more shout for the _______ reason. She was very bright herself, but she liked the ones who were _______. Jimmy, my eldest brother, I knew, was especially her _______. I remember that he would tell me to get out of the house. “Let the sun shine on you so you can get some color.” He went out of his way _______ to let me have a sense of color-advantage.

I learned early that crying out in disagreement could finish things. My older brothers and sister would sometimes come in from school and ________ a biscuit with butter or something. My mother impatiently(不耐烦地), would tell them no. But I would cry out and make a big noise until I got what I wanted. I remember well how my mother asked me why I couldn’t be a nice boy like Wilfred. But I would think to myself that Wilfred, for being so nice and quiet, often stayed hungry. So early in life, I had learned that if you want something, you had better make some noises.
