A 3-foot-long black-and-white snake bit his hand and was

22、 still around his left arm.“The baby-sitter was frightened,” said Teddys father, David Lasry. He and his wife, Evelyn, were at work when the snake appeared at about 4 pm.6The baby-sitter called 911 and the buildings doorman. The doorman and two cleaners helped move the snake off the boys arm and put

23、 it in a rubbish bag, Lasry said.The police took Teddy to Mount Sinai Medical Center very fast, and the doctor spent two hours checking if the snake was poisonous. Luckily, it wasnt.But how did it come to Teddys bed?A police officer said that the snake ran away two weeks ago from the apartment(公寓) o

24、f a doctor. He lives four floors below the Lasrys.

27、eople want to learn or improve their English but it is difficult to find the best way. Is it better to study abroad(在国外) or to study in your own country?The advantages of going to Britain seem clear. Firstly, you will be able to listen to the language all the time when you are in the country. Englis

28、h will be around you 7wherever you go. Another advantage is that you have to speak the language if you are with other people. In China, it is always possible, in the class, to speak Chinese if you want to and the learning is slower.On the other hand, there are also advantages to study at home. You d

29、ont have to make big changes to your life. As well as this, it is also a lot cheaper than going to Britain but it is never possible to achieve the results of living in the UK. If you have a good teacher in China, I think you can learn in a more concentrated(专注的) way than being in Britain without goi

30、ng to a school.So I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to spend some time in the UK. This is simply not possible for most people, so being here in China is the only choice. The most important thing to do in this situation is to make good use of every chance: to s

31、peak only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside the class.46. What is the advantage of learning English in Britain according to the passage?A. You can make more friends.B. You can learn English slowly.C. You can make big changes to your life.D. You can get more chances

32、 to practice English.47.

Why did the writer write the passage?A. To advise people

33、 to go abroad to study.B. To encourage people to learn English.C. To help people decide where to learn English.D. To tell people how to save money on English learning.DWhat should I say now?“Hi, my name is Sara.”“Im Frank. Nice to meet you.”8“Nice to meet you, too.”Now what do you say? If you want t

34、o hold a good conversation, what comes next is very important.Introductions, like the one above, are a great way to begin. When you introduce yourself, be confident and comfortable. That will make others comfortable, too. After the introduction, wait a bit. If the other person doesnt ask a question

35、or make a comment(评论), you make one. Starting with a question shows interest in the other person. You could ask, “What do you do?” or “How do you know our host?” Of course, its a good idea to ask something a little different. “What did you do last weekend?” or “Have you seen any good movies recently

36、?” are two topics you could ask about. Another good statement (陈述) to start with is “Tell me about yourself.” Most people love talking about themselves.As the other person begins to answer your question, look for common ground. If you ask about last weekend, the person could talk about a bike ride h

37、e took. When the person finishes his comment, you could talk about an experience you had with biking. You can then move on to discussing other sports the person may be interested in.When the other person is talking, it is very important to be interested in them. Listen carefully to their answers. Do

38、nt allow yourself to look around the room. That gives the other person the message that you are not really interested in them. On the other side, if you are answering the question, dont go on and on. Answer the question and then stop. A good conversation is like a tennis game where the ball goes bac

39、k and forth.With some practice, youll be able to start and keep a conversation going with anyone!49. What should you do after the introduction?A. Tell the other person more about yourself.B. Keep silent until the other person asks a question.C. Say goodbye to the other person as quickly as possible.

40、D. Ask the other person some questions about himself or herself.950. What does the phrase “common ground” mean?A. New ideas. B. The same interests.C. Popular sports. D. Wonderful experiences.51. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. How to get on well with other people.B. How to be confident du
