I recommend flying to Washington D.C., our nation’s capital. Like Beijing this is the heartbeat of America. While in Washing D.C. you should check out the White House, the presidential monuments, Ford’s Theatre where Abraham Lincoln was assassinated(暗殺) and the US Capital building, which is the home of the US government.
When you’re ready to leave Washing D.C., go to Chinatown and jump on a bus up to Newks5u York. These buses are really cheap and convenient.
Newks5u York is like a fantasy world where you can do almost anything! My friend from Thailand said the best Thai food she ever ate was in Newks5u York City. So eat as much as you can, see a show on Broadway and climb the stairs of the Statue of Liberty. If you really want an American experience, eat a hot dog while you watch a Newks5u York Yankee’s baseball game.
Now, because you are my friends, I will recommend to you one of the great secret places in America: Newks5u Hampshire. Even though this is my home state, I am not biased(偏愛). Newks5u Hampshire is one of the most beautiful places in the world. In the fall, hike the White Mountains and be surprised at the bright red, yellow and orange leaves on the trees. In the winter, drink a warm glass of hot chocolate before you ski through freshly fallen snow. And in the summer take a boat out of Lake Winnipesauke and enjoy crystal(水晶般的) clear water.
Actually, you’ll have a good time just about anywhere.
71. The writer thinks visitors should take a bus to Newks5u York because ______.
A. the distance is short   B. the trains are crowded
C. buses are really cheap and convenient       D. Newks5u York is like a fantasy world
72. According to the passage, ______ is a real American experience.
A. seeing a show on Broadway
B. eating a hot dog while watching a baseball game
C. eating as much as you can
D. climbing the stairs of the Statue of Liberty
73. The author of this passage is from ______.
A. Newks5u York      B. Houston   C. Washington D.C.        D. Newks5u Hampshire
74. The underlined word “you” in paragraph 4 really refers to ______.
A. writers         B. visitors         C. readers   D. the writer’s friends
75. In ______, you can see the bright red, yellow and orange leaves on the trees.
A. autumn       B. spring     C. summer          D. winter

This brief book is aimed at high school students, but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life.
Its formal, serious style closely matches its content, a school-masterly book on schooling. The author, W. H. Armstrong, starts with the basics: reading and writing. In his opinion, reading doesn’t just mean recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information, digesting it and incorporating it into oneself just as one digests a sandwich and makes it a part of himself. The goal is to bring the information back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees. Reading and writing cannot be completely separated from each other; in fact, the aim of reading is to express the information you have got from the text. I’ve seen it again and again: someone who can’t express an idea after reading a text is just as ineffective as someone who hasn’t read it at all.
Only a third of the book remains after that discussion, which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studying languages, math, science and history. He generally handles these topics thoroughly  and equally, except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion regarding history. Well, he was a history teacher —if conveyed only a tenth of his passion to his students, that was a hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across.
To my disappointment, in this part of the book he ignores the arts．As a matter of fact, they demand all the concentration, and study that math arid science do, though the study differs slightly in kind．Although it's commonly believed that the arts can only be naturally acquired, actually, learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics．
My other comment is that tke text aged．The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s—none of the references （參考文獻(xiàn)） seem newer than the late 1950s．As a result, the discussion misses the entire computer age．
These are small points, though, and don't affect the main discussion．I recommend it to any student and any teacher, including the self-taught student．
【小題1】According to Armstrong, the goal of reading is to ____       .

A．gain knowledge and expand one's view
B．understand the meaning between the lines
C．express ideas based on what one has read
D．get information and keep it alive in memory
【小題2】The author of the passage insists that learning the arts___       .
A．requires great effortsB．demands real passion
C．is less natural than learning mathsD．is as natural as learning a language
【小題3】What is a shortcoming of Armstrong's work．a(chǎn)ccording to- the author?
A．Some ideas are slightly contradictory．
B．There is too much discussion on studying science．
C．The style is too serious．
D．It lacks new information．
【小題4】This passage can be classified as ___．
A．a(chǎn)n advertisementB．a(chǎn) book review
C．a(chǎn) feature storyD．a(chǎn) news report

The Writers' Strike：Making the Best of the Worst
By now you are probably feeling the effects of the TV writers’ strike---the decision of television writers to stop working. With few new TV shows, I present to you a list of shows available on DVD worth your viewing time to keep you going during this painful period.
Arrested Development is one of the funniest and most clever shows ever to have appeared on network TV. With a most perfect cast(全體演員), the show sets out to cover the daily happenings of the Bluth family, a group of selfish staff who manage to still put family first.
For more comedy goodness, I recommend one of the sharpest comedies to have ever broadcast, 30 Rock. Starring Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin, two stars with impressive comic timing, the show gives you a glimpse into the making of a sketch show (幽默短劇),similar to Saturday Nigth Live, from the funny writers to the self-centered cast all the way up to the boss.
If you are looking for something more serious, or perhaps Friday Night lights might be more to your liking. If you are a fan of football, this show is probably for you. If you are a fan of great drama, both soapy and serious, this show is probably for you, If you are a fan of good-looking people, this show is definitely for you .
If those shows were not enough for you, might I recommend a show with a more heart-pounding excitement? The Amazing Race, after twelve seasons, still remains one of the most exciting shows on TV. Teams of two travel the globe with little to no money and experience far-out adventures in an attempt to remain the last team standing.
【小題1】If you are fond of soapy TV shows, you will probably choose to watch      .

A．Friday Night Lights B．30 Rock
C．the Amazing RaceD．Saturday Night Live
【小題2】From the DVD shows listed above, we can learn that　　　.
A．two teams won the amazing race
B．football fans enjoy the Amazing Race
C．the Bluths care about their family though selfish
D．30 Rock and Saturday Night Live have nothing in common
【小題3】The author writes the passage to tell us that       .
A．the effects of the TV writers’ strike are great
B．the strike puts TV shows in the worst situation
C．watching DVD is a good choice during the strike
D．we should choose DVD shows according to our tastes
【小題4】The passage is most probably taken from      .
A．a(chǎn) book reviewB．a(chǎn) newspaperC．a(chǎn) film posterD．a(chǎn) DVD menu
