Edward rose early on the New-year morning. He looked in every room and wished a Happy New Year to his family. Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet.
When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars.
His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.
　　He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor family.
　 “I wish you a Happy New Year.” said Edward, as he was passing on. The man shook his head.
　 “You are not from this country.” said Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak his language. But he pointed to his mouth and to the children shaking with cold, as if (好像) to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.”
　 Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble. He took out his dollars and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife.
　 They were excited and said something in their language, which doubtless meant, “We thank you so much that we will remember you all the time.”
　 When Edward came home, his father asked what books he had bought. He hung his head a moment, but quickly looked up.
　 “I have bought no books”, said he. “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed to be very hungry then.” He went on, “I think I can wait for my books till next New Year.”
　 “My dear boy,” said his father, “here are some books for you, more as a prize for your goodness of heart than as a New-year gift”
　 “I saw you give the money cheerfully to the poor German family. It was nice for a little boy to do so. Be always ready to help others and every year of your life will be to you a Happy New Year.”

School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
??? It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to learn some facts or a formula by heart. It is actually quiet easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula(公式) in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientist, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo, didn’t get everything from school. But they were all so successful and invented so many things for men. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions as they read and they did thousands of experiments.
28.According to the passage, a good teacher should be one who is to_________.
A. help his students to gain a good memory.
B. train his students’ ability to learn
C. teach his students everything he knows
D. have his students studying long hours
29.If a student wants to learn better, the most important thing for him to do is_______.
A. to learn all the useful facts and formula by heart
B. to do everything as his teacher have said in class
C. to absorb (吸收) as much knowledge from his teacher as possible
D. to think more while he is studying
30.The main reason for the success of the great scientists is that________.
A. the teachers who had taught them were all experienced.
B. they used to work and study without a moment’s rest.
C. they had received more schooling than other people
D. they knew how to study and worked hard
31.What’s the good advice the writer gives us?

D
"I don't like my parents. They always tell me I should do this, and should not do that. It
sometimes makes me angry." said Zhang Hua,a middle school student in Guangzhou. Do you have the same problem? Perhaps your parents had the same problem when they were your age long ago. Why does it seem that some parents are not so friendly in their children's eyes?
One of the biggest things is when someone becomes a parent,he or she likes worrying things.
They worry about everything about you from the time you were born. They do a lot for you, though something would make you angry,because they care about you and worry about you. They worry about the friends you choose, the food you eat, your work at school, how much sleep you get, etc. All these things are part of your life. They want you to grow up healthily and happily.
So how can you make things easier on yourself? It's easier than you think. Just make sure
your parents know what you're doing. Let them know your friends. Call them if you stay somewhere else. Say sorry to them when you make mistakes. Take responsibility (责任) for what you have done. Talk about your ideas with them. They may talk about theirs with you.
Most of all,try to think about why your parents do this or do that. They are still practicing being parents and need your help. Someday, when you become a parent, they may be able to help you how to get on with your children.
32. The writer thinks we should _____ if we go back home later than usual.
A. tell our friends
B. say sorry to our parents
C. make a telephone to our parents
D. tell the teacher
33. The writer thinks _____.
A. it's wrong of parents to worry about their children too much
B. some parents are unfriendly, which makes their children angry
C. parents love their children and the children should understand them
D. children should do everything as their parents say
34. Why do parents worry about everything about you?
A. They think you are too young.
B. They want you to grow up healthily and happily.
C. They want to make you unhappy.
D. They are not friendly.
35. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Parents' Responsibility
B. What Are Parents Worrying about ?
C. Zhang Hua's Problem
D. How to Get on with Parents?
