He's an old cobbler（修鞋匠）with a shop in the Marais,a historic area in Paris.When I took him my shoes,he at first told me: “I haven't time.Take them to the other fellow on the main street ; he'll fix them for you right away.” But I'd had my eye on his shop for a long time.Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather,I knew he was a skilled craftsman（手艺人）.“No,” I replied,“the other fellow can't do it well.” “The other fellow” was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys “while-U-wait”-without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys.They work carelessly,and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap（鞋带）you might as well just throw away the pair. The man saw I wouldn't give in,and he smiled.He wiped his hands on his blue apron（围裙）,looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said,“Come back in a week.” I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boots off a shelf. “See what I can do?” he said with pride.“Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work…” When I got back out into the street,the world seemed brand-new to me.He was something out of an ancient legend,this old craftsman with his way of speaking familiarly,his very strange,dusty felt hat,his funny accent from who-knows-where and,above all,his pride in his craft. There are times when nothing is important but the bottom line,when you can do things any old way as long as it “pays”,when,in short,people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption（消费）rather than a way to realize their own abilities.In such a period it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done. 24.Which of the following is true about the old cobbler? A.He was equipped with the best repairing tools. B.He was the only cobbler in the Marais. C.He was a native Parisian. D.He was proud of his skills. 25.The sentence “He was something out of an ancient legend.” ( paragraph 7 ) implies that . A.the man was very strange B.it was difficult to communicate with this man C.the man was too old D.nowadays you can hardly find anyone like him 26.According to the author,many people work just to . A.realize their abilities B.gain respect C.make money D.gain happiness 27.This story wants to tell us that . A.craftsmen make a lot of money B.people are born equal C.whatever you do,do it well D.craftsmen need self-respect |

The introduction of the iPad,with its touch screen technology,has allowed even very young children to take advantage of a computer.So what if all children in a school were given an iPad to use in class and take home with them? Anne Laure Bazin works in a school where every child,teacher and teaching assistant is given a free iPad to use in and out of lessons.For her,the main advantage of everyone having an iPad had been the improvement in communication.Documents can be emailed straight over to workmates during a meeting.Children submit their homework by email,or through the school’s learning environment.Teachers now take the register（点名）using their iPad,which means that there is a record of which children are in school,and which classroom they are in. The use of iPad has encouraged greater sharing of resources among teacher.All communication with parents is now done by email.Working as a group in class is much easier as children can share documents.The whole class can look at one child’s work by attaching（连接）the iPad to the whiteboard.If a child has forgotten the textbook,the teacher can take a photograph of the relevant（相关的）page and send it to the student in class. While the use of the iPad in schools has revolutionized（变革）the way children are taught ,it hasn’t completely replaced more traditional methods of teaching .Worksheets are still used in class as some children prefer the contact with paper.The children all have a textbook and exercise books.In Anne Laure’s school,parents feared that the iPads would replace exercise books and children would lose handwriting skills.Anne Laure says,” The teacher are not ready to let go of the traditional style of teaching.We have welcomed the iPads in so much as they help communication and widen the resources available but we are not ready to let go of paper yet.The children themselves still value their exercise books and depend on them for review.” 28.The underlined word “submit” in the second paragraph means________. A.discuss B.share C.hand in D.send out 29.What is an advantage of using iPads in the classroom? A.It saved students bringing the textbooks. B.It reduces parents’ worry about teaching. C.It improves the relationship between teachers. D.It makes it convenient to share information. 30.What is parents’ attitude towards the use of iPads in the classroom? A.Worried B.Indifferent C.Annoyed D.Doubtful 31.What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A.Teachers prefer traditional methods of teaching. B.The iPads won’t take the place of printed materials.

Elephants on the coast of Thailand are acting strange.They stamp their feet and motion toward the hills.The sea draws back from the beaches.Fish fall heavily in the mud.Suddenly,a huge wave appears.This is no ordinary wave.It is tsunami! Tsunami waves are larger and faster than normal surface waves.A tsunami wave can travel as fast as a jet plane and can be as tall as a ten-story building.Imagine dropping a stone into a pond.The water on the surface ripples（起涟漪）.A tsunami is like a very powerful ripple.Tsunamis begin when the ocean rises or falls very suddenly.Large amounts of seawater are displaced.This movement caused huge waves. For a tsunami to occur,there must be some kind of force that causes the ocean water to become displaced.Most tsunamis are caused by underwater earthquakes.However,volcanoes ,landslides（塌方）,large icebergs,and even meteorites（陨石）are capable of causing one of these mighty waves. Tsunamis are extremely powerful.Ordinary waves lose power when they break.Tsunami waves can remain powerful for several days.Because tsunami waves are so strong,they can kill people,damage property,and completely ruin an ecosystem in just one hour. Scientists have no way of predicting when a tsunami will hit.However,if a powerful enough earthquake occurs, scientists can send out a warning or a watch.A warning means that a tsunami will very likely hit soon.A watch means that conditions are favorable for a tsunami.When people are informed of a watch or a warning,they have more time to prepare.It is best not to get caught unaware when a tsunami is on the way. 32.Elephants are acting strange mostly because they_______. A.dislike the huge wave B.are afraid of the big fish C.can sense something out of the ordinary D.see the ocean drawing back from the beaches 33.Why do Tsunamis cause so much destruction? A.They are not familiar to most people. B.They are very powerful and long-lasting. C.They break on the coast,unlike normal waves.
