B
Prison Break is a huge hit thanks to its handsome star, Wentworth Miller. His character, Michael Scofield, is the engine that drives the show.
Having committed a crime to get into prison and break out with his innocent brother, Michael Scofield is one of the most interesting personalities on TV today. But what about the man behind the character?
Miller,35, is a hard guy to figure out. He does not come from a normal background and has never lived his life in a typical way.
Miller didn’t take direct path to fame and fortune. He graduated from Princeton University in 1995, not with a degree in theatre of film, but in English. He didn’t even act when he was in college. His only performance experience was in his university’s singing group. Yet , at graduation Miller still decided to make the move to Hollywood.
Miller has always been different. Although he is American, he was in Britain when his father was studying there. His family background is also a special mix of cultures. “My father is black and my mother is white. That means I have always been caught in the middle. I could be either one, which can make you feel out of place,” Miller says.
Following his unusual path, Miller did not start trying out for films and TV shows when he first went to Hollywood. Instead, he worked as a lowly production assistant. Not what you would expect from a Princeton graduate. However, it all paid off for Miller in the end. 
In 2002, Miller played a role in the drama Dinotopia（《恐龍帝國》）. He starred as a thoughtful and shy man. Producers remembered his performance when they were casting Prison Break two years later. With a golden globe nomination（提名）and another season of Prison Break on his resume, Miller seems ready to take over all of Hollywood.

Perhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. However, you can receive better grades if you want. Yes, even students with average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here’s how:
1．Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule of your time. Be sure to set aside enough time to complete your normal reading and work assignments. Of course, studying shouldn’t occupy all of the free time on the schedule.
2．Make good use of your time in class. Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.
3．Skim before you read. Look over a passage quickly before you begin to read it more carefully. As you preview the material, you get some idea of the content and how it is organized. Later when you begin to read you will recognize less important material and you may skip some of these portions, Skimming helps double your reading speed and improve your comprehension as well.
4．       . Go over your notes as soon as you can after class. Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused. If you know what the teacher will discuss the next day, skim and read that material, too. If you review your notes and textbook regularly, the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer. Regular review leads to improved performance on tests.
5．Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t worry excessively（過分地）about a single test.
There are other techniques that might help you with your studying. Improving your studying habits will improve your grades.
1．Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
If you fail an exam, don’t let it trouble you too much.
2．According to the passage, how can an average student improve his/her grades?(within 10 words)

第二節(jié)信息匹配（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）
請(qǐng)閱讀下列相關(guān)信息，并按照要求匹配信息。請(qǐng)?jiān)诖痤}卡上將對(duì)應(yīng)題號(hào)的相應(yīng)選項(xiàng)字母涂黑。
以下是幾種舞蹈的介紹：
A, Ballroom dancing
Although mainly popular in Latin America, it is now gaining quite a following all over the world.  Examples of the are the cha-cha, tango and foxtrot. Although you're basically required to master the fundamental steps, freestyle dancing is accepted and even encouraged for intermediate  (中級(jí)的)  and professional dancers.
B. Jazz
It is described as the dance that has almost all forms of dancing. It requires flexibility and grace. It emphasizes all nuances (細(xì)微差別) of body movement, so dancers are generally encouraged to wear tight fitting clothes to ensure that not even the smallest shift of the body will go unnoticed。
C. Aerobics
Technically, it's not a dance but since it still involves body movement and rhythm, let's put it in the list all the same. Aerobics is more suited to those who need to exercise but are easily bored by the more common workouts like jogging or sweating on the treadmill. Aerobics is also a good stepping stone for the more demanding forms of dancing because it improves your coordination.
D. Ballet
Lithe, flexible, graceful, elegant, poised ( 平衡的) － if you're not all of those then you shouldn't choose it. In ballet, each movement is an expression of a specific emotion so it must be done precisely and without flaw. As a rifle, ballet dancers should also be small and slender.
E. Hip Hop
It is the most popular form of dancing of today's time, thanks to stars like Jennifer Lopez and Nelly. Hip hop is also known as street grooves and preferred by but not limited to teenagers and young adults because of its choreography (舞蹈設(shè)計(jì)). Hip hop is a good and fun place to start for amateurs.
F. Belly
Want to make your guy admire and gain a sexy belly at the same time? Then this Eastern dance is the answer to all your problems. Although all the shaking and bending can be somewhat exhausting, just remind yourself of your objectives and you'll be A-okay.
請(qǐng)閱讀以下人物的信息，然后為他們匹配合適的舞蹈。
56. Mark is a young and creative schoolboy, who is an amateur of dancing. But he just enjoys the dancing which can help him express himself freely with his self-designed steps, When he shows his dance to others, he will feel very happy and proud.
57. Roy is a little fat. He tried to do some exercise to lose weight. But he felt bored when jogging.  So he wants to find a new way, which can not only help him keep fit but also lay the base for learning some forms of dancing.
58. Claudia is a dance lover, who likes all kinds of dances. She has learned dancing for six months and has mastered some basic steps. Now she wants to improve her dancing skills and learn two kinds of Latin American dances.
59. Alice is a graceful and slim young girl, who has a good sense of balance. She hopes she could be a great dancer when she grows up. So now she is planning to choose a kind of dance that is suitable for her.
60. Joan often went out for fun with her friends, but now she isn't willing to do that because of her slightly protruding (突出的) belly. In order to be sexy and slim again, she'll try a kind of dance so that she can regain her confidence.

閱讀下面一篇文章，文章后有七個(gè)選項(xiàng)，從A、B、C、D、E、F、G的七個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出五個(gè)符合每一段文章主旨大意的選項(xiàng)。
To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear． (56)__________．
Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not sit motionless before his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings．Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about． (57) _______________．
The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a actor doesn’t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s．The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand．What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage． (58)_________________．
A good teacher works in quite a different way．His audience takes an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t understand something, they say so．The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his audience, which is his class．He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along． (59)_________________．
I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn’t keep discipline: they could not keep strictly to what another had written． (60)_______________．
A．Characteristics of a good teacher
B．Qualities of a good actor
C．What makes up a good teacher
D．What makes a teacher famous
E．It is not easy for a good teacher to become a good actor．
F．The image（印象）of a good teacher 
G．Duties of a good teacher
