But if you keep your sense of humor(幽默感),you can always have a good laugh at the mistakes you make. Don’t be unhappy if people seem to be laughing at your mistakes. It’s better for people to laugh at your mistakes than to be angry with you, because they don’t understand what you are saying.The most important thing for learning English is:“Don’t be afraid of making mistakes because everyone makes mistakes.”

What do you do if you are hit in the mouth and one of your teeth is knocked out? A dentist(牙医)may be able to put the tooth back in for you, but you have to get to the dentist first．In the meantime, you have to store the tooth so that it will stay healthy．
The simplest thing to do is put the tooth back into your mouth, or you could put it in milk．Frank Courts, a dentist at the University of Florida, worked with other researchers to find the safest way of keeping knocked-out teeth．He tried putting teeth into milk, into water, and into cell-culture medium(细胞培养液)．He also tried, just drying the teeth in the open air．He used teeth that had to be removed from people’s mouths for various reasons．The teeth were put into one of the solutions(溶液)or stored in the air for one hour．Then cells from the root of the teeth were scraped-off the teeth．Dr．Courts and the others then studied how healthy these cells were．
The cell-culture medium worked best to keep a knocked-out tooth healthy outside the mouth．However, few people keep cell-culture medium handy at home or in school．
The next best thing was milk．But Dr．Courts said that the best thing of all was to wash the tooth and put it right back into its socket(牙槽)in the mouth．For some people, though, this is just too painful or upsetting．So milk will do, until you get your tooth (and your mouth)to a dentist．
1.This passage is mainly about ．
A. how a dentist can save a knocked-out tooth
B. how to keep a knocked-out tooth healthy
C．how Dr．Courts and other researchers made their experiments
D．how to put a knocked-out tooth back into its socket
2.The best way to keep a knocked-out tooth healthy outside the mouth is to store it .
A．in cell-culture medium B．in milk C．in water D．in the open air
3.Milk can be used instead of cell-culture medium to put a knocked-out tooth in because ．
A．milk works better to keep the tooth healthy B．milk causes less pain
C．cell-culture medium is not usually handy D．cell-culture medium is more expensive
4.“Dr．Courts said that the best of al1 was to wash the tooth and put it right back into its socket in the mouth．”In the sentence, the word “best” means .
A．cheapest and healthiest B．least painful and cheapest
C．quickest and least painful D．easiest and healthiest

A “blogger” is a person who writes on an Internet website called a “blog”. The word “blog” is a short way of saying “web log”, or “personal website”. Anyone can start a blog, and they can write about anything they like.
There are millions of blogs on the Internet today. They provide news, information and ideas to the people who read them. They contain links to other websites. And they provide a place for people to write their ideas and react to the ideas of others.
A research company called Perseus has studied more than 3,000 web logs. It says that blogs are most popular with teenage girls. They use them to let their friends know what is happening in their lives. The study also says that more than 100,000 bloggers stopped taking part in the activity after a year.
However, some people develop serious blogs to present political and other ideas. For example, the Republican and Democratic parties in the southern state of Kentucky recently started their own blogs. And American companies are beginning to use blogs to advertise their products.
At the same time, some long-standing blogs have ended. Last week, blogging leader Dave Winer closed his free blog service “weblogs.com”. He said the site became too costly to continue. He started the blog four years ago, and thousands of people had written on it. They are now upset because they did not know that the site was closed
One blog that is still going strong is called Rebecca’s Pocket. Rebecca Blood created the website in 1999. She wrote about the history of blogs on the site. That article led to a book called The Weblog Handbook. It has been translated into four languages so far.
Miss Blood says Rebecca’s Pocket get about thirty thousand visitors a month. She writes about anything and everything — politics, culture and movies. She recently provided medical advice. And she wrote about how to prevent being stolen from online bank accounts.
1.The text is mainly written to _______.
A. introduce an Internet website called “blog” B. introduce a short way of saying “web log”
C. tell readers about blogs D. tell readers how to write blogs
2. From the text we can learn that blogs cover almost everything except _______.
A. different ideas B. medical advice C. advertisements D. account passwords
3.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?
A. Politicians don’t use blogs at all. B. A lot of bloggers no longer write or read blogs.
C. Those who like to use blogs are mostly teenage girls.
D. Dave Winer closed his “weblogs.com” because of the money shortage.
4.The reason why Rebecca’s Pocket is still going strong is that _______.
A. it was created by a woman B. it is about the history of blogs
C. it provides useful information and advice
D. it has editions in at least four different languages

Many people take it for granted that black is a color of bad things while white should always mean something good．This may be because, in their opinion, black is related to darkness and white to purity（纯洁）．
However, that is not always the case．Did you know that the same colour may mean differently in different places of the world?
In the English-speaking world, black is the colour of mourning（哀悼）．People wear black clothes at the funeral．Red is concerned with danger or bloodshed (流血)．Yellow is the word for fear．If you are afraid, you are yellow．Yet none of these sayings is true outside the English-speaking world．In China and Korea white is the colour of mourning．In Russia, China and some other countries, red stands for beauty, life and excellence．In Italy and Germany, you are yellow with anger, not with fear．
Even within the English-speaking area it is not difficult to find colour contradictions (矛盾)．A redcap in the United States is a porter in a railway station．In Britain, however, a redcap is a military policeman．Both names are logical because both men wear red caps．Similarly, the British term for an American white collar worker is sometimes called a black-coated worker．
One does not have to cross an area to find color differences．Would you rather be red-blooded? If we go back to the origin, we find that both terms are logical as both names suggest．The expression “blueblood” comes from Spain, where some noble（贵族）families proudly said that they had “blue blood”．But then why “blue” blood? Because they were fair-skinned, and it is only natural that their blood vessels (血管) stood out appearing blue．
1.Yellow is concerned with anger in ______.
A．Russia B．Britain C．Germany D．China
2. Both Britain and America would probably agree that ______.
A．black is the color of mourning B．a black-coated worker is employed in an office
C．red stands for beauty and excellence D．a redcap is a porter in a station
3.The best title for this passage is ______.
A．The Origin of Blue Blood B．The Development of the Use of Colors
C．Colors that Carry Bad Meanings D．The Meaning Concerned With Certain Colors
4.When some Spanish called themselves “blueblood”, they actually meant ______.
A．they had heart trouble and their faces looked blue B．they came from a noble family
C．they had blue blood in their vessels D．they were fair-skinned
