My father was a man of few words. Whenever I wanted his permission for a certain activity, I planned a speech that included who would be there, where it would take place, how long it would last, and why it was an incredibly wonderful opportunity for me. He would listen and then say either “Yes” or “No.” There were never any qualifiers; not “Yes, but be home by dinner” or “No, unless you can convince me otherwise.” It was yes or no, plain and simple. My fathers phone messages were also lessons in patience and long-suffering to a teenage girl. I was quite active in high school. Not only did I enjoy being involved in many areas, but I came into contact with many a great teenage guy. I can recall one busy day when I had met two great guys and had given each of them my phone number. The first words out of my mouth when I walked through the front door were, “Dad! Did anyone call?” His answer, of course, was simply, “Yes.” I required for a more accurate description of the caller. His answer: “A boy.” Since I had met two guys that day, this did not help me. I ran to my room in tears. Knowing my dads dislike of language in general and his fondness for briefness, it surprised me to hear that he was going to teach the eleven-year-old boys Sunday school class. He did so for not one, but many years. I always wondered if he actually said anything, or if they all just sat in their chairs and stared at each other. I was sure that if people were waiting on my father to break the ice with brilliant conversation or a springboard ment, theyd be badly disappointed. Still, September after September, my father hung his sign outside the Sunday school room: Mr. Ernst-Eleven-Year-Old Boys. 41. In order to get Dad to agree to the authors outing, the author had to make up the following EXCEPT_A. The friends I shall meet in the activity. B. The activity is a chance for anyone. C. The place where the activity is to be held. D. The time that I shall spend in the activity. 42. When the author says “My fathers phone messages were also lessons in patience and long-suffering to a teenage girl”, it means that when she was young _. A. her father once gave her a lesson about patience and long-lasting pain. B. her fathers brief phone messages angered her a lot but made her patient.C. she was trained to be patient and brave because of her fathers brief phone messagesD. she suffered and had to be patient because of his fathers brief phone messages. 43. Whats the meaning of the underlined phrase “break the ice”? A. make the ice crack B. stop talking C. start a talk D. interrupt a talk 44. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. My father would answer me with “Yes, but be home by dinner” sometimes. B. I came into contact with just a few great teenage guys because I was active in high school. C. That my father would teach the eleven-year-old boys Weekday school class surprised me. D. I always wanted to know how my father, who talked so little, taught the boys. 45. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Man of Few Words. B. My Great Father. C. A Strange Father. D. Man for Respect. BHey there,So youre about to spend four years of your life and tens of thousands of dollars of your parents money, and all you really know about college is that all of your friends are going. Do you ever stop to wonder why youre going? Relax. Youre making the right decision. First of all, youll discover what interests you by taking courses in many subjects. For example, its hard to decide if you want to be a painter if youve never painted any pictures; once youre in a drawing-room on campus, youll know one way or the other. College is also a lot of fun after you graduate, youll be working every weekday for 50 or so years. And remember that college graduates earn about twice the ine of those who never attended college.Finding the right college can be difficult. Fortunately, Johnson Review is here to help you every step of the way. * Researching Schools. To us, the most important decision youll make is to choose the school that really fits you best not the one that is the most petitive or has the best-equipped rooms. * Applying to School. On JohnsonReview, youll find hundreds of actual college applications (申請) and links to many more. * Raising Your Scores. American College Test is one of the most important parts of the admissions (錄取) course. Its not the most important, though, and not everyone needs to prepare for the best. But, if you think you can do better, find the right course for better scores. * Paying for School. Most families need financial aid for the high cost of college. The problem is that financial aid seems difficult to get and many families get caught up in the price of college rather than learning the ways to get financial aid. If you really do your research, youll learn that you can afford to attend any college, no matter the cost. For more information, call 600-3681 or visit Johnson Review.

Literally it is a home for you to stay when you are not home. To be specific, home-stay provides foreign language students with the opportunity to speak native language outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a local home. Here is what you will experience in our British Home-stay Program. What to ExpectThe host will provide acmodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.Acmodation ZonesHomestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre (Zone 1) as much of central London is mercial and not residential(居住的). Zones 3 and 4 often offer smaller acmodation in a more crowded area. It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.Meal Plans Availableu Continental Breakfastu Breakfast and Dinneru Breakfast, Packed Lunch and DinnerIts important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast. Your acmodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal(谷物類食品), bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by desert, fruit and coffee.FriendsIf you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your hosts permission. You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.Self-Catering Acmodation in Private HomesAcmodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room. This kind of acmodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary home-stay and may not benefit those who need to practice English at home quite as much.51.

The product was tested at the Saarbrcken Institute for New Materials. It is worth mentioning that the invention is transparent and non-poisonous. The liquid glass can protect any type of surface from damages caused by water, UV radiation, dirt, heat, and bacterial infections. Besides, it is flexible and breathable, which means that the liquid glass can be applied on plants and seeds as well. Researchers found that the spray greatly increases the resistance of plants to bacteria-caused diseases. The trials also showed that the sprayed seeds grew faster. Depending on the type of surface that is to be covered, researchers can add water or ethanol to the spray. Scientists say that their latest invention has a long-lasting anti-bacterial effect. The spray produces a coating that is just 100nm thick. Trials by food processing plants in Germany have concluded that foods covered with the glass can store longer than those stored in normal condition.According to Neil McClelland, UK project manager with Nanopool, due to its capabilities, the spray-on liquid glass can bee one of the most useful inventions around the world, ending up being used by a lot of industries that will cover their products. At present, the invention is being used by a train pany and a hotel chain in the UK, as well as a hamburger chain in Germany that are carrying out tests of the liquid glass for various uses. The spray-on liquid glass was also tested in a Lancashire hospital, where it showed “very promising” results, being used to cover medical equipment and bandages. The invention could be also used on clothing, because it cannot be seen by the naked eye, thus clothes could bee stain resistant. Due to its unique characteristics, the liquid glass can be used to cover bathrooms, sinks and many other surfaces in the home. According to the researchers, the spay-on glass can last for a year. It is expected to hit the DIY stores across Britain at a price of 5 pounds. 6. Which of the following about the liquid glass is NOT true?A.
