I want to share a story that recently a friend in the USA shared with me about her son’s language learning experience. Lisa is from Texas. We met 10 years ago.

Her son, Tommy, was a very excellent student and attended Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), one of American top three schools. After completing his master’s degree (硕士学位）in computer science，he was chosen to go to work in Japan for Canon.

During his time at MIT, Tommy had studied Japanese though he never took it too seriously. In Canon，when Tommy spoke English with others，they all told him，“No English. No English. ’’ However，this wasn’t a problem because Tommy simply started speaking Japanese to them. They were all surprised by his spoken Japanese. Most of them couldn’t believe that he’d only been learning for years and didn’t have as a major (主修科目）in college.

Canon immediately asked Tommy to teach English in their company. It was not his wish to teach English because his interest was in computer science. Anyway，they doubled his pay. Tommy accepted it and changed their way of learning. He took all of their textbooks away. He put them in informal (非正式的）classro6m situations，often without desks, and encouraged them to speak. He asked questions and started discussions.

His simple way was so successful that Canon asked him to travel to all of their companies throughout Asia and set up English Corners in every one of Canon’s offices.　 In the past 6 years, Tommy has trained more than 20,000 workers.

1.According to the passage, ______•

A. the writer has known Lisa for 10 years

B. Tommy is the writer and Lisa’s friend

C. Tommy majored in Japanese at MIT

D. the writer is now living in the USA

2.What do we know about Tommy?

A. He went to Japan to work because his Japanese was great.

B. He always finds it difficult to talk to the Japanese.

C. He didn’t want to teach English at first.

D. His way of teaching English is not very helpful.

3.The underlined word “them” refers to “______

A. Tommy’s bosses　　 B. Canon’s workers

C. the textbooks　　 D. Canon’s customers

4.From the passage, we can learn that key to good language learning is______

A. listening　　 B. Reading　　 C. writing　　 D. communicating

I have always wanted to share this story because it is one of the things that I will remember for my whole life. And I’m sure the other person feels the same.

We had a new teacher in my middle school World History class. She was very nice and excited to see us. She told a story about her 　　 fighting in a war and brought a picture of him. After about fifteen 　　 of her talking, the class started talking softly to each other 　　 they were getting bored. Looking 　　 , she asked “So, you guys don’t really want to hear any more?” No one dared to say “no” to her loud 　　 one kid. He said, “No, not really!” 　　 a disrespectful(无礼的) way. Some kids were a little 　　 and thought that it was rather rude.

I felt really bad for this teacher. No one should be 　　 in such a disrespectful manner. Therefore, near the end of the class I went up and said 　　 to her for the guy’s rude behavior. I told her I had been listening, and even though I may not really like 　　 , I was grateful to her for sharing her story. I asked her 　　 about her father and asked to see the picture of him. We had a very nice, sincere conversation about her father.

The teacher was touched. She thanked me for coming up and actually treating her with the respect(尊敬) that she deserved. I felt at full peace with 　　 knowing that I did the right thing and I was super happy that I made her day. Even though I didn’t really care for history, I 　　 listened, and I hope that others in different situations will do the same. Listening means a lot to the people sharing; it really 　　 . If I had just left the class without saying a word, I would have felt very 　　 and would have a constant reminder, probably to this day, that justice(公义) was not served and I had left a person in their time of need.

"How are you?" is a nice question. It's a friendly way that people in the USA greet each other. But "How are you?" is also a very unusual question. It's a question that often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks "How are you?" hopes to hear the answer "Fine", even if the person's friend isn't fine. The reason is that "How are you?" isn't really a question and "Fine" isn't really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying "Hello" or "Hi".

Sometimes, people don't say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks "Do you agree?", the other person might think, "No, I disagree. I think you're wrong..."But it isn't very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say "I'm not sure." It's a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone.

People don't say exactly what they are thinking when they want to finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says "I've to go now." Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: "Someone's at the door." "Something is burning on the stove. "The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn't hurt the other person.

Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don't say exactly what they are thinking. It's an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it's part of the game of language.

The ＂green＂ car has become popular in recent years. It means that a car is environmentally friendly.

Today, most cars are powered by petrol(汽油). They make our lives easier. Two of the biggest problems are noise pollution and air pollution.

With the world’s population(人口) growing quickly, we have to think of ways to make cars that are better for the environment. One day, maybe you can help invent a clean car that makes people, animals, and plants happy! There are a few new types of cars that do not use petrol. We are still learning to make these cars better.

Electric cars: An electric car uses a battery(电池) for its power. When you are not driving it, just plug it in like a mobile phone to give the battery more power. Some electric cars are much cleaner than petrol cars.

Fuel cell(燃料电池) cars: Car makers are now learning about how fuel cells can be used to power cars. Fuel cells use hydrogen(氢气) and oxygen(氧气) to make power. The only waste gas they produce is clean water.

Solar(太阳能) cars: A solar car has large panels(嵌板) on its top that get power from the sunlight. The car holds that power in a battery. Solar cars might be the cleanest of all. But no one uses them, because solar panels can’t get enough power from the sun to make a car go for a long time. Also, they are very slow.

The ＂Green＂ Car Has Become Popular
