The British are known as people who love to stand in line, but a new research(研究) shows that the British are only about average(平均数) at waiting politely in a queue. The French are the best. Germans (德国人)don't have a good habit of standing in line. They can't stand to wait for anything. They begin to shout loudly if the line doesn't seem to be moving fast enough. Sadly it never moves fast enough for them.
The experts(专家)studied 940 people across Europe. They watched secretly as they waited in line to get tickets, to order fast food and to wait for the bus. They found people feel that they move along faster if they are good at forming (排成)queues. For example, in Britain, the average waiting at a queue needs about three and a half minutes. In Germany or Sweden(瑞典)people hate waiting in line. In fact, people spend about seven minutes. They get to the front of the queue without thinking about others, so they waste others' time.
The research expert asked a person to break into a queue to see what people would do. In Britain, people shouted loudly at him, but when he said, "I'm terribly sorry. I didn't realize there was a queue. Do go before me. "People smiled and said. "Oh, that's all right, one more won't matter much. "It was also found in France, where 80% of the people didn't mind standing in line only if they were treated politely. While in Germany everyone was angry. The expert said, "If they can learn from the British and the French to think of queuing as a kind of exercise in making the best of an unhappy thing, they may find that the queue then moves faster."
1. The research shows that the people in _____are the most polite in standing in line.
A. Sweden B. Britain C. France D. Germany
2. The Germans spend more time than the British in queues because they_________.
A. always talk a lot with others B. like waiting in line
C. don't follow the rule of queuing D. don't know the rule of queuing
3. According to the research, which of the following is TRUE
A. The British didn't care about(在意)the queue jumper(插队者).
B. The Germans were angry with the queue jumper.
C. The French treated the queue jumper badly.
D. People in Sweden enjoyed themselves while queuing.
4. From the last sentence we know the expert wished the Germans could _________.
A. have a good habit of standing in line B. save others' time while queuing
C. move quickly when queuing D. take exercise in queues
5. The result of the research shows that_____________________.
A. people in Europe hate waiting in line
B. standing in line is a kind of exercise
C. there are always queue jumpers all over the world
D. people who are good at standing in line think they move along faster

Modesty(谦逊) is a valuable quality in many cultures around the world. In China, this is no different. However, the phrase “毛遂自荐” seems to disagree with this.
During the Warring States Period, the Qin army marched on Handan. Seeing that Handan was in danger, Prince Pingyuan looked for help from the state of Chu. He wanted to pick 20 talented people to go with him. However, he could only find 19 people who were good enough. Then, a man named Mao Sui volunteered. Prince Pingyuan looked at Mao Sui with doubt, “How long have you been here with me ”
“Three years,” Mao Sui answered.
“I hear that a person with talent is like an awl in a cloth bag. Its sharp point will soon pierce through the bag. You’ve been here for a long time, but l haven’t seen any of your achievements. Maybe you don’t have any talent.” said Prince Pingyuan.
“What I’m asking you now is to put me into that bag. If you do that, I will pierce through it. But not only the point-the whole awl,” Mao Sui said confidently.
Impressed, Prince Pingyuan allowed Mao to join his team, and Mao proved very helpful. Now the phrase “Mao Sui recommending himself” is used to describe someone who volunteers to do a task.
However, there is a fine line between self-confidence and arrogance(傲慢). It’s important to believe in yourself, but a strong ego(自负) can harm your career and professional relationships. So we recommend letting your work speak for itself.
1.What is an awl like
A. It has much talent. B. It has a sharp point.
C.It looks like Maosui. D. I t looks like a cloth bag.
2. What does the phrase “毛遂自荐” mean in this passage
A. Showing modesty. B. Feeling unconfident.
C.Being honest enough. D. Volunteering for a task.
3. The underline words “do that” in Paragraph 5 refers to____________.
A. put an awl into a bag B. put Mao Sui into a bag
C. let Mao Sui join the team D. let Mao Sui leave Prince Pingyuan
4. What can we learn from the passage
A. Modesty isn’t a valuable quality. B. Mao Sui was a modest person.
C. Prince Pingyuan didn’t like Mao Sui. D. We should believe in ourselves.
C
Life comes in a package(包、捆).This package includes happiness and sadness, failure and success, hope and despair(绝望).Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to deal with all kinds of situations.
Love plays a main role in our life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could become cruel(残忍的).In the early stage(阶段)of our life , our parents are the ones who show us with love and care. They teach us about what is right and wrong,good and bad. But we don't always care about it. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands others' feelings.

Failure is the way to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive(幸存) and shows us a specific(特殊的) way. Success brings in money, pride and self-respect(自尊).
Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day.
Life teaches us not to regret(后悔)over yesterday, for it has passed and is out of our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dark. So the only choice(选择)is to work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.
