A

I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I felt in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had escaped their search. I found one and because of my shaking hands, I could hardly get it to my lips. But I had no matches, they had taken those. I looked through the bars at my jailer (狱卒). He did not make eye contact with me. I called out to him: “Have you got a light?” He looked at me and came over to light my cigarette. As he came close and lit the cigarette, his eyes absently locked with mine. At that moment, I smiled. I don’t know why I did that. Perhaps it was nervousness, perhaps it was because, when you get very close, one to another, it is very hard not to smile. Anyway, I smiled. I know he didn’t want to, but my smile went through the bars and generated a smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed near, looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.

I kept smiling at him, now considering him as a person and not just a jailer. “Do you have kids?” he asked. “Yes, here, here.” I took out my wallet and nervously felt the pictures of my family. He, too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes filled with tears. I said that I was scared that I’d never see my family again, never have the chance to see them grow up. Tears came to his eyes, too. Suddenly, without another word, he unlocked my cell (牢房) and silently led me out and set me free.

“My life was saved by a smile.” Yes, the smile — the unaffected, unplanned, natural relation between people. I really believed that if that part of you and that part of me could recognize (认可) each other, we wouldn’t be enemies. We couldn’t have hate or scare.

11. The true statement of the following according to the passage is ______.

A. when I was smiling to the jailer, he didn’t smile

B. the jailer was moved by what I said about my family and kids

C. the jailer set me out of the jail as long as I kept silent over it

D. if we could recognize each other, we must be good friends

12. Which of the following do you agree with most?

A. The jailer helped him because he was a friend of the writer.

B. There would be no hate or fear if there is understanding.

C. A picture of one’s family is helpful in time of trouble.

D. The writer had no chance to see his children again.

13. The best title for the passage might be ______.

A. A jailer and a prisoner B. The conversation between the souls

C. A friend or an enemy D. The power of a smile

B

One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, learning over and over again increases the length of time we will remember it.

In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and make ourselves remember words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.

The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception (例外) to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.

The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may lead to a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he may soon forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.

14. What is the main idea of paragraph 1?

A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.

B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.

C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.

D. Stories for children are easy to remember.

15. The author explains the law of overlearning by ______.

A. showing research findings B. setting down general rules

C. making a comparison D. using examples

16. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is ______.

A. a result of overlearning B. a special case of cramming

C. a skill to deal with maths problems D. a basic step towards future studies

17. What is the author’s opinion on cramming?

A. It leads to failure in college exams. B. It’s helpful only in a limited way.

C. It’s possible to result in poor memory. D. It increases students’ learning interest.

C

“It’s a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card,” said Ren, a freshman in Wuhan University. The university is also considering some students’ suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they’ve finished the shower. Not surprisingly, some are complaining about losing the hour shower. But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense.

Without the time limits, most students tended（倾向）to shower for 30 to an hour in the bathhouse.

Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes. “In my experience, 10-20 minutes is enough,” said Dai Zhihua, a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes.

A similar system has been fixed in other universities. Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September. The bathing fee there is 0.2 Yuan per minute. One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower.

18. The underline word “flaw” in paragraph three most probably means ______.

A. fault B. advantage C. pity D. perfection

19. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.

A. The new operation can raise students’ environmental sense

B. the new operation can solve the water crisis（危机）

C. a similar operation has been set in other universities

D. Most of the students show a negative attitude towards the move

20. In which part can you find this passage in the newspaper?

A. People. B. Science. C. Campus Life. D. Lifestyle.
