Well, Let me tell you the truth

11、, it is reallyan eye-opening experience to study here.In China, I had English classes five times a week since the fifth grade. HoweverI didn t know textbook English was very different from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School,Connecticut.When I first studied English, I was told to say ，

12、“I am fine ” when people say “Howare you?” But- 4 -in the US, I found that people say, ” I amgood” or “I amtired. ”One day, some one greeted me with“ What s up? ” It made me con fused. I thoughtfor a moment and then smiled because I didn t know what to say.Since the n, I have discovered more and mor

13、e differe nces betwee n Chin ese and theUS cultures.To my surprise, the US girls spend a lot of time in burning sun getting a tan（曬黑）.However, i n China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler（白的）.I am also surprised by how hardworking the US students are. In China, schoolworkis almost

14、 everything, so we study hard all the time. But here, an “excellent ” student gets good grades,does a lot for the public and plays sports or music .The kids hereare so talented , and I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano atan early age and that I have n ever thought about sports

17、with eachother and pass on their wealth to the n ext gen erati on?- 5 -UBC Professor Simard expla ins how trees are much more complex tha n most of usever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simardshows just how wrong he was. In fact, the o

18、pposite is true:trees survive through theirco-operationand support,passingaround necessarynutrition depending on who needs it.Nitroge n （ 氮）and carb on are shared through miles of un dergro und fun gi （真菌）networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the

19、right amountto keep them all healthy. This hidde n system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons （神經元）in our brains, and when one tree isdestroyed, it affects all.Simard talks about mother trees, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She expla ins how

20、 dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting importantminerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When huma ns cut dow n mother trees with noaware ness of these highly complex tree societies or the networks on which they feed, we are reducingthe chances of survival

21、for the en tire forest.We did nt take any no tice of it Simard says sadly.Dy ing trees move nu triti oninto the young trees before dying, but we n ever give them cha nee. If we could put across the message tothe forestry in dustry, wecould make a huge differe neetowardsour environmen tal protect ion

The un derl ined word it in the last paragraph refers to ._A. how tree societies workB. how trees grow oldC. how forestry in dustry developsD. how

24、 young trees survive27. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Old Trees Communi cate Like Huma nsB. Young Trees Are In Need Of Protectio nC. Trees Are More Awesome Tha n You Thi nkD. Trees Con tribute To Our SocietyCSome of the world s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and N

25、ewOrleans to celebrate the first annual InternationalJazz Day. UNESCOUnited NationsEducati on al, Scien tific and Cultural Orga ni zati on） recen tly set April 30 as a day to raise awareness ofjazz music, its significanee,and its potentialas a unifying（ 聯合）voice across cultures.Despite the celebrati

26、 ons, though, in the U. S. the jazz audie nee continues toshrink and grow older, and the music has failedto connect withyounger generations.It s Jas on Moran s job to help cha nge that. As the Kennedy Cen ter s artisticadviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more

27、 accessible, andpreserve its history and culture.“Jazz seems like it s not really a part of the American appetite, ” Moran tells National PublicRadio s reporter Neal Conan. “What I m hoping to accomplish isthat my gen erati on and youn ger start to recon sider and un dersta nd that jazz is not black

28、 and wh iteanymore. It s actually color, and it s actually digital. ”Mora n says one of the problems with jazz today is that the en terta inment aspectof the music has been lost.“The music can t be presented today the way it was in1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world w

29、orks is not the same, ” saysMoran.- 7 -Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller s music for a dance party, “ Justto kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music, ” says Moran.For me, it s the recontextualization.In music, where does

30、the emotion（情感）lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight（ 感 悟）on how totalk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogueabout our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider con text, ”says Moran, “ so I want to

31、con ti nue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.”28.Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A. To remember the birth of jazz.B. To protect cultural diversity.C.
