暖春三月,贴心开学测 高二英语第四套
I am a manager who is in charge of taking care of the elderly and many of my clients live out of state.
This year, a very sweet old lady that I care for, Alice, had gone through a particularly rough time. She had been in hospital twice. In November I was finally able to get her back to her “home” into an “assisted living facility”(养老院).
Alice has dementia(痴呆症) and thought her daughter was coming to visit her on Christmas day and that they were going to have the whole family together like the old days. When she finally realized that the happy moment was not going to happen, she was so tearful. Knowing that her daughter was coming after Christmas was not enough to cheer her up, I hated the idea of her being alone on the holiday!
On Christmas Eve, I gave her a surprise by asking if she would like to go to a candlelight service at church that night. Instead of taking her to my church, I took her to her old neighborhood church where all her friends were. We got there early and I got each of us a seat where her friends could see her as they came in. The plan worked out very perfectly. All of her friends seemed to be there and rushed over to greet her and sit with her. The candlelight service was a beautiful, tearful affair and Alice got a lot of hugs and love from her old and new friends there.
The truth of the story is that I am the one who got the best gift:the smile on Alice’s face and the feeling that I made a difference.

Throughout the world, clothing has many uses. It is used to provide protection from cold. It is also worn to prevent others from seeing specific parts of one’s body. However, the parts of the body that must be covered vary widely throughout the world. Some clothing is worn to provide supernatural protection. Wearing a lucky shirt to take an exam is calling for supernatural assistance.
People in all cultures use clothing and other forms of bodily decoration to communicate status(身份), intentions and other messages. In North America, we dress differently for business and various leisure activities. North American women usually are much more knowledgeable of little difference in messages communicated by clothes than men. At times, this leads to silly mistakes of understanding of female intentions on the part of men. Of course, clothing styles also are intended to communicate messages to members of the same gender(性别).
Long before we are near enough to talk to someone, their appearance tells their gender, age, economic class, and often even intentions. We begin to recognize the important cultural clues at an early age. The vocabulary of dress that we learn includes not only items of clothing but also hairstyles, jewelry, and other body decoration. In most cultures, however, the same style of dress communicates different messages depending on the age, gender, and physical appearance of the individual wearing it.
Putting on certain types of clothing can change your behavior and the behavior of others towards you. This can be the case with a doctor’s white lab coat, or an army uniform. Most uniforms are clearly symbolic so that they can rapidly and unmistakably communicate status. For instance, the strange hairstyle and clothing of the English “punks” are essential aspects of their uniforms.
There are many forms of body decoration other than clothes that are used around the world to send messages. These include body and hair paint, and even body deformation. When doctors put braces on teeth, they are actually doing the same thing – deforming or reforming a part of the body to make it more attractive.
Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A. Clothing and Culture |
B. Ways of Sending Message |
C. Clothing and Social Behavior |
D. Communication through Clothing |
Some people wear lucky shirts to take an exam because they believe .
A. clothes can hide their fear for the exam |
B. clothes have extraordinary power |
C. shirts can make them more comfortable |
D. shirts provide protection against bad weather |
In North America, men sometimes misunderstand women’s intention because .
A. men are more careless than women |
B. women spend more time on their clothes |
C. men and women have different views on clothing styles |
D. men care less about the different messages communicated by clothes |
According to the passage, the behavior of others towards you can be changed by your .
A. age | B. dress |
C. status | D. gender |
From the passage, it can be inferred that .
A. clothing plays an important role in social activities |
B. words of dress are unable to communicate different messages |
C. dress is better than language in communicating messages |
D. messages communicated by clothes are the same in different cultures |

Good student-teacher relationships result from the choices that are made even before school, and how those choices are carried out on a daily basis. Here are a few tips to make this process easier for both parties.
___
For the teacher, this means that they need to look at each student from the perspective(角度) of what that student could learn, rather than what that student learned last week or last year. For the student, this means that they need to enter the classroom every day with the willingness to trust the teacher to help them understand. ___ Every school day there are new opportunities to learn new information or to understand subjects that might have been difficult in the past.
___
This is not to say that you have to “buy” the affections(关爱) of the student or the teacher,but you can give the gift of a smile,the gift of attention in class,or the gift of eye contact. Giving this type of gift always helps to build strong relationships.
Demand the best.
____ We can trust friends to keep us responsible and when developing good student-teacher relationships,the same principle of trust applies. Setting high expectations always pushes us to be our best,and when both the student and the teacher are pushing the other for more depth, more wisdom, more insight, etc,then both the student and the teacher will give more.
To develop a good student-teacher relationship,both the student and the teacher must be willing to decide to do these things daily. Each day,they must be willing to try again and work on the relationship. ___
A.Buy gifts for teachers. |
