Passage B

(Q=Question; A=Answer)

SituationⅠ

Q: If someone sits right next to me in an empty movie theatre, is it rude to move?

A: Maybe, but nobody will fault you for it. Chances are that the close sitter doesn’t realize he disturbs you, so he may miss your annoyance. You undoubtedly aren’t the first person he’s met who needs enough room. Forgive his bad judgment, move quietly and enjoy the show.

SituationⅡ

Q: If I use the bathroom at a store, do I need to buy something?

A: Consider frequency and urgency. Is this a one-time thing or an emergency? If so, you don’t have to buy anything, but it would be kind if you did. However, if you regularly use the bathroom at this place, then you are a customer, and you should act like one.

Situation Ⅲ

Q: If someone is talking loudly on the bus, is there a nice way to ask him to keep it down?

A: No, try other means:1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down.2) Lift your finger in a silence motion(动作) and smile.3) Put on earphones and ignore him.

Situation Ⅳ

Q: If I remember my friend’s birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothing happened?

A: This is the reason why the word belated was invented. “Happy belated birthday!” is short for:“Well, I know I forgot. But then I remembered. Forgive me and happy birthday.”

SituationⅤ

Q: Can I lie about seeing a text because I was too busy or lazy to respond to it?

A: Don’t lie. Receiving a text does not mean you need to respond to it. Why waste a perfectly good lie when the truth will serve? “Yes,” you can say if ever asked,“I saw it.”No explanation is needed as to why you don’t respond.

Passage D

It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don't. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn't accepted by all people.

Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don't need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail, either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.

Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.

I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.

第14题：People with little education usually ________.

A. spend a long time in school

B. have a good chance to get a job

C. spend the best years to choose jobs

第15题：The earliest education was probably to ________.

A. make a man lead a better life

B. teach a man to write and think

C. make people get a way of living

第16题：The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “________” in Chinese.

A. 圆满的 B. 崭新的 C. 公平的 D. 全面的

第17题：It is expected that educated people will be able to ________.

A. accept education as a way of living

B. take an interest in the whole world

C. develop their abilities to make plays

D. learn subjects like language and math
