三、阅读理解
A
After coming to America, the use of " yes” and “no” brings me a lot of trouble, because the use in Korean(韩语)is different from that in English. For example, if I am asked, "Haven't you had dinner yet? "and I have not had dinner yet, then in Korean I usually say " Yes, I haven’t. " But in English, I have to say,“No, I haven’t.”
Because of this, my friends often get the opposite meaning from what I want to give them. One day only a month after I came to America, I had dinner with an American student, Bob. He asked me some questions and I answered them sincerely. A few days later, I found some roommates thought that I came from North Korea. One day, I stopped by Bob's room and asked why he was spreading the wrong information. “Oh, you told me that. Don't you remember?" he said, "when I asked you ‘ You are not from North Korea, are you?’ you clearly answered. ‘Yes, of course.’ Didn't it mean that you are from North Korea?
The different use also causes problems between my friends and me. One weekend night, my
roommate Mark brought his children into the dorm(宿舍). They made some noise while playing.
I did not mind the noise since I was just watching TV. The next morning, I met Mark. He asked
me with a smile, "Didn't my children make noise last night? Didn't it make you uncomfortable?"
Because I did not mind the noise at all, I clearly said "Yes! " The smile suddenly disappeared from Marks face, and he said, " I am sorry about that, They are going right now. See you later.” I could not understand what he was sorry about, and I just said, "OK. Bye!"After a moment of thinking, I realized how stupid I was. That evening, I explained to Mark and said sorry to him. I knew he thought that I had been very rude.
Now to deal with this problem, I have set simple rules: First, take a five-second break if I am not sure of "yes" or “no". Second,use“ pardon me”, so the person may explain to me in a direct way
1. From the passage, we can infer(推断) that the writer comes from_______
A. North Korea B, America C. South Korea D. China
2. In Paragraph 3, when the writer answered "Yes". Mark might think the writer was______
A. rude B. kind C. helpful D. polite
3. The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refers to(指的是)________
A. “yes” B. the noise C. watching TV D. the smile
4. If the writer is not sure of "yes" or "no" next time, he will say______
A. "pardon me” B. "yes” C “no” D.“I don’t know”
5. The writer writes the passage mainly to remind us_______
A. to work hard on English B. to learn to respect others
C. never to use "yes” or "no” D. to know culture differences
B

A时间的快慢
You have waited 40 minutes for the valuable 10 minutes' break. But when the bell for the next class rings, you often complain how quickly time passes. If you have this experience, you will know how time flies when you are having fun and passes slowly when you are bored. Why does it happen?
Scientists found that the brain changes its way to work according to how we direct our attention to a task. When we are bored, we pay more attention to how fast time is passing. And this makes our brains think the time goes slowly.
Recently, some researchers wanted to understand the conditions why time flies at different speed. In the experiment, twelve volunteers watched a picture when researchers monitored(监控) their brain activities. The volunteers were told to first notice how long a picture appeared, and then the color of the picture, thirdly, study the both. The results showed the brains were more
active when people paid attention to more subjects.
It is thought that if the brain is busy noticing many aspects(方面) of a task,it has to spread its resources and pay less attention to time. So time seems to go by quickly, If the brain is not so active, it will put its full energy on the passing of time. As a result, time seems to move slowly

I Believe I Can Fly
I Believe I Can Fly is a nice song by R. Kelly. This song tells us that confidence is very important. When a person has confidence, he believes in himself. He believes that he can and will succeed, and this gives him the courage to try new things. Dreams and confidence keep us going on in the face of difficulties. No one can achieve success without them. If you believe you can fly, then you can really fly someday.
I think I will never give up whenever I meet with any difficulties. I'll remember confidence is the way to success.
