27、   I was in a strange city I didn’t know at all, and what’s more, I could not speak a word of the language. On my second day I got on the first bus that passed, rode on it for several stops, then got off and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough, then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived, and even that I pronounced badly. I stopped to ask a newspaper-seller. He handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person, I asked was a policeman. He listened to me carefully, nodded and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again. I nodded politely and began walking in the direction he pointed.

About an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me. I had come all the way into the countryside. The only thing left for me to do was to find the nearest railway station.

A.Because he had no money to buy a ticket.

B.Because he wanted to lose himself in the city.

C.Because he tried to know the city in this way.

D.Because it was late and there were no buses passing by.

A.He didn’t know the city at all. B.He couldn’t speak the language.

C.He went too far in the wrong bus. D.He followed the policeman’s direction.

28、Among rich countries, people in the United States work the longest hours. They work much longer than in Europe. This difference is quite surprising because productivity per hour worked is the same in the United States as it is in France, Spain and Germany, and it is growing at a similar speed.

In most countries and at most times in history, as people have become richer they have chosen to work less. In other words they have decided to “spend” a part of their extra income on a fuller personal life. Over the last fifty years Europeans have continued this pattern, and hours of work have fallen sharply. But not in the United States. We do not fully know why this is. One reason may be greatly lower taxes in America, which increase the rewards to work. Another may be more satisfying work, or less satisfying personal lives.

Longer hours do of course increase the GDP (国内生产总值). So the United States has produced more per worker than, say, France. The United States also has more of its people at work, while in France many more mothers and older workers have decided to stay at home. The overall result is that American GDP per head is 40% higher than in France, even though productivity per hour worked is the same.

It is not clear which of the two situations is better. As we have seen, work has to be compared with other values like family life, which often get lost in interest. It is too early to explain the different trends（趋势）in happiness over time in different countries. But it is a disappointing idea that in the United States happiness has made no progress since 1975, while it has risen in Europe. Could this have anything to do with trends in the work-life balance?

【1】From the text we know that the author___________.

A．believes that longer working hours is better

B．prefers shorter working hours to longer ones

C．says nothing certain about which pattern is better

D．thinks neither of the patterns is good

【2】Which of the following countries has more of its people at work?

A．Spain.

B．France.

C．Germany.

D．America.

【3】In the last paragraph, the underlined word “which” refers to ______.

A．family life

B．situations

C．other values

D．trends

【4】What message can we get from the text?

A．The GDP of Europe is higher than that of America.

B．Two possible reasons are given for working longer hours in the US.

C．People all over the world choose to work less when they are richer.

D．Americans are happier than Europeans.

【5】Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A．Americans and Europeans

B．Staying at Home

C．Work and Productivity

D．Work and Happiness

29、   According to some researchers, you should not praise children for everything that they do. It does not help them build self-confidence.

Most parents and teachers agree that praise can help increase children's self-confidence-the more, the better. However, according to some researchers, only proper praise is good for children. If adults praise everything children do, it makes children look for praise all the time, not trying to do their best. "Teachers should not say things like 'good job 'or 'nice work' whenever a child does anything. They should encourage them to continue to improve,” some researchers advise.

Another idea is that children with high self-confidence are happier, and do better at school. About this, Marshall Duke, a researcher in children, says, "High self-confidence brought in by too much praise does not make children happier, get more, or become able to do more. Finding a child's advantages and developing them can help build confidence more than too much praise can." Praise also loses its effect if it is given equally to all students.

"It's important to tell children the truth about what they've done. Honest feedback（反馈）is far better than empty praise," Duke adds. "People have got into the habit of not telling children when they’re wrong. That makes it hard for them to deal with difficulties when they grow up. That's just how the world is."

【1】According to some researchers, if parents praise their children too much, their children will   .

A.always look for praise B.increase self-confidence

C.become strong D.do better in their studies

【2】In order to help children build self-confidence, some researchers advise parents to .

A.make them live more happily B.let them do more difficult work

C.help them do better in school D.encourage them to improve

【3】Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?

A.Praise makes children become successful.

B.Children don't know what they’re really good at.

C.The same praise for all children has no meaning.

D.Duke thinks praise is more important than finding children's strengths.

【4】The underlined word "it" in the third paragraph refers to .

A.the effect B.the praise

C.the advantage D.the confidence

【5】What is the last paragraph about?

A.It's important to have the habit of praising children.

B.Children should know their mistakes as soon as possible.

C.We should praise children honestly and tell them their mistakes.

D.What children with high self-confidence are like.
