A
This is a song millions of Americans will hear this New Year's Eve. It is called Auld Lang Syne(《友谊地久天长》). It is the traditional music played during the New Year's celebration. Auld Lang Syne is an old Scottish poem. It tells about the need to remember old friends.
The words “auld lang syne” mean “old long since”. No one knows who wrote the poem first. However, a version(版本) by Scottish poet Robert Burns was published(出版) in 1796. The words and music we know today first appeared in a songbook three years later.
The song is played in the United States mainly on New Year's Eve. The version you are hearing today is by the Washington Saxophone Quartet. As we end our program with Auld Lang syne, I would like to wish all of our radio friends a very Happy New Year! This is Buddy Thomas.
( )51. Where is this passage from?
A. A newspaper. B. A magazine.
C. A TV program. D. A radio program.
( )52. Who is introducing Auld Lang Syne to us?
A. Robert Burns.

C. Buddy Thomas.
D. The passage doesn't tell us.

Parents often believe that they have a good relationship(关系) with their teenagers. But during the summer vacation in 2011, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their son—suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut,” Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14?year?old daughter. “She used to sit with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is finding out which time is which. ”
Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what's in their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list,” said Michael Riera, the writer of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the ten years,” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last. ”
Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental(心灵) break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager with their children is a better way to know them.
( )56. “The door to his room is always shut” shows that the son ____.
A. is busy with his homework
B. doesn't want to talk to his parents
C. needs some sleep
D. is too tired
( )57. What troubles Tina and Mark most is that their daughter ____.
A. talks little in class
B. asks for too much money
C. only talks to her best friends
D. talks with them only when she wants something
( )58. The writer thinks that parents should ____.
A. make their children study harder
B. understand their children
C. ask their children to open the doors
D. give more money to their children
( )59. From the passage, “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph(段落) means ____.
A. children do not talk much with their parents
B. parents only ask their children to study hard
C. parents always sit silently with their children
D. children need free time to get themselves relaxed
( )60. According to the passage, what advice does the writer give to parents?
A. Be a manager with your children.
B. Never talk too much to your children.
C. Be a friend with your children.
D. Give your children whatever they want.
九、任务型阅读。(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
American schools are quite different from those in China. In America, at the beginning of the term, students must select their courses and teachers first. While in China students usually have no chances to select their courses or teachers.
Selecting is very important for your grades in America. So in the first term, don't select too many courses, 64. or you'll feel very nervous and it may influence your study. Then you have to ask for some teaching plans. There is some information about subjects, time arranging, marks and textbooks. At the same time, you must choose the teachers. Different teachers have different teaching methods. If the teacher is called “killer” by the last grade, many students will give up choosing him. Because this kind of teacher will give students too much homework, too many exams and too low grades.
There is another thing after you select the courses and the teachers. How to buy textbooks makes each student feel hard. The textbooks in America are very expensive. Each copy is about $30～$50. In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks, and some students usually borrow textbooks from the school library. You must get ready before class. In class, discussing is very important. 65. 老师鼓励你提出问题或展示你自己的观点。They don't usually ask you to sit well. Instead they allow you to sit or stand everywhere you like. They don't give you much homework to do. You can learn some knowledge and do exercises by yourself. So in American schools, you must do almost all things yourself.
根据文章内容,补全61、62句中所缺单词、短语或句子。
61. At the beginning of the new term, American students have to ask for some teaching plans and get their textbooks ready besides

Recently we did a survey in our class in order to learn about students' ideal jobs. Here's a report about my group members' ideas.
Mary in our group wants to be a fashion designer in the future. One of the reasons is that she always likes beautiful clothes so she often reads a lot of magazines in the school library. As for the other reason, she is good at drawing.
Mike wants to be a writer as his future job. First of all, he enjoys sharing stories with us in our free time. What's more, he has won several prizes in the writing competition.
And I'd like to be an English teacher because I hope more people in our country like English and learn it better.
I hope we all make our ideal jobs come true!
