24、 There is one language used in every country in the world. It is everybody's second language. It is easy to understand, although you can't hear it. It is sign language.
For example, when you wave to a friend who is across the street, you are using sign language. When you smile at someone, you are saying, “I want to be friendly”, but you are not using speech. You are using sign language. When you raise your hand in class, you are saying, “Please ask me. I think I know the correct answer.”A policeman is using sign language when he holds up his hands to stop traffic. Even a baby can use sign language when she points at things that she wants.
Many years ago, a French priest (牧师)called Charles Michel invented a finger alphabet(字母表)for deaf people. It is still in use. People can make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands, and deaf people can read and understand them. Soon there were schools for the deaf in many countries. The only university for the deaf is Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C.
Today, in the US, there are special TV news programs for deaf people. The newsreader tells the news in sign language. At the same time. the words appear on the TV screen.
The actors in the National Theatre of the Deaf(NTD)don' t spell every word. Sometimes they use hand signs. When they put one hand above and the other below, empty in the middle, it means sandwich. They can make a roof with their hands when they want to show a house. One finger in front of an actor's mouth can mean quiet. You can talk to people behind closed windows. And when you go swimming with your friends, you can have conversations under water.
【1】If you want to express(表达)the idea that”I am very friendly”to someone, you will________.
A.raise your hand B.smile at the person C.put one hand onto the other
【2】What is sign language according to the passage
A.It is only used by the deaf.
B.It can be heard by people under the water.
C.It is a way to express one's ideas without words.
【3】How can deaf people make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands?
A.By pointing at the things they want.
B.By watching special TV news programs.
C.By learning the finger alphabet invented by Charles Michel.
【4】How to express sandwich with your hands?
A. B.
C.
【5】What is the passage mainly about?
A.An introduction of sign language.
B.The importance of sign language.
C.A famous priest in France.

Queen: And that was why?
Amram: Yes, your Majesty. King Solomon turned off the road to save the little ants from being hurt.
Queen: Then he must be as wise and as kind as people say he is.

27、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 maths need not be taught in detail, either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
Education is well-rounded (全面的) 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 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】The earliest education was probably to_______.
A. make a man lead a better life
B. teach a man to write and read
C. make people get a way of living
D. teach people to read good books
【2】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
【3】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 good paying jobs
D. all subjects are so important for a way of living
