Ted, my littl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e brother, is in Grade One. Last Friday he came back from school with a letter. The letter was from his teacher. “I got a red flower today. Could you please sign this note ” he said to mum. The note showed that he had been talking in class.
Ted hardly gets top ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) scores in his school work. The best he gets is “OK”, but he often gets “You can do better than this.” Mum knows what it means. She tells me “You can do better than this” means “Extremely bad” in China.
In the USA, teach ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ers never say anything too bad about their students, even if the students are making trouble in class or not working hard enough. The worst they might say is “Please be nicer tomorrow”. Many parents are satisfied with a B-grade for each subject.
But things in Chi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nese schools are quite different. Parents have high expectations for their children. I sometimes felt that my second-grade cousin spend more time on homework than I did when I was 6th grade in the US! Yet his parents and teachers didn’t think he worked hard enough.
Is it too strict in Ch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ina Or is it not strict enough in the USA Maybe both are true.
( ) 16.Why did Ted come home with a letter last Friday
A. Because the teacher wanted to visit his mother.
B. Because he did something wrong.
C. Because the teacher was happy with his progress.
D. Because the teacher thought he was too lazy.
( ) 17.If ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a student in the USA gets “OK” in his schoolwork, it means ________.
A. he gets top scores B. he gets medium scores
C. he gets extremely bad scores D. he gets the worst scores
( ) 18. American ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) parents will be ________ when their children get a B-grade in their school.
A. excited ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) B. sad C. angry D. happy
( ) 19. The un ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )derlined words “high expectations” in this passage means “________”.
A. 很高的待遇 B. 很多的自由 C. 很高的期望 D. 很多的关爱
( ) 20. The writer mainly wants to tell us ________.
A. the diffe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rences between Chinese education and American education

Even in early ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )times, people could realize the importance of dreams and knew that dreams gave meaning to life. Every great achievement has been the result of years of dreaming. If a person has a dream and holds fast to it, he or she will find a way to bring it into reality (现实)．
Children do notHYPERLINK "http://www.21cnjy.com/" hav ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 )e much experience or knowledge. However, they are natural dreamers. We should not laugh at them for being naive．(A)With their rich imagination, they will come up with fantastic dreams. History is full of examples. Many great men were dreamers when they were children. One such dreamer was Thomas Edison. He used to be ostracized (排斥) when he was in primary school, but his achievements were greater than everyone else's in his time.
Teenagers and young ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) people should also be encouraged to dream. The world is full of successful teenagers and young people. Their dreams changed their lives and even the world. Steve Jobs and Bill Gates are the good examples. They have developed technology and brought great progress to human besides making money for themselves.
Older people should be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 )lieve that it is never too late to dream and that human mind is never too old to make dreams turn into reality. Colonel Saunders realized his dreams at the age of 67 and set up the biggest fried chicken company (KFC) in the world.
To dream is a wonderf ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ul ability which can lead to wonderful results. Olympic records were broken by players who were brave enough to dream. No one is too young or too old to dream and to make dreams come true.

五．I like the film The Sound of Music. It took place in Austria in 1938. It was a story of Maria and the Von Trapp family. Maria helped look after the seven children. Their father George told Maria to make the children study hard. They had a good time every day. In the end, George fell in love with Maria and married her. I think the best part of the film is the song in the film. It is very beautiful and interesting.
