Art museums are places where people can learn about various cultures .The increasingly popular “design museums” that are opening today ,however ,perform quite a different role .Unlike most art museums ,the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public .These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.
People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales—it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something ,while the second tells you the success of a sale.
One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits .Unlike the average art museum visitors ,design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled .This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do ,and how design has improved the quality of our lives .Art museum exhibits ,on the other hand ,would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something between their understanding.
In recent years ,several new design museums have opened their door ,Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas .London’s Design Museum ,for example ,shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins .The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums ,and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.
1.Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because they.
A.show more technologically advanced products
B.help increase the sales of products
C.show why the products have sold well
D.a(chǎn)ttract more people than store windows do
2.The author believes that most design museum visitors .
A.do not admire mass-produced products
B.a(chǎn)re puzzled with technological exhibits
C.dislike exhibits in art museums
D.know the exhibits very well
3.The choices open to design museums .
A.a(chǎn)re not as strict as those to art museums
B.a(chǎn)re not aimed to interest the public
C.may fail to bring some pleasure to visitors
D.often contain precious exhibits

I prefer my English classes to be taught in English only. As is known to all is that a good learning environment is of great important if we want to study English well. Classes teaching in English provide students for a better environment. When English is an only language in class, students will have more opportunity to practice listening and speaking. However, there were problems with this method. Sometimes we may find difficult to follow the teacher and some slow learners may even give up learn English. In spite of these difficulties, but I believe practice makes perfect. With enough practice, we can overcome the difficulties and benefit from English classes in the long run.

Three-year-old Teddy Lasry was sleeping in his cowboy outfit(套裝)yesterday at his family’s Fifth Ave. apartment when he shot up in bed screaming. A 3-foot-long black-and-white snake twisted around his left arm and had just bitten his little finger,
“The babysitter was frightened to death.” said Teddy’s father David Lasry, who, along with his wife, Evelyn, was at work when the snake appeared about 4:00 pm. The horrified babysitter called 911 and the building’s doorman. The doorman and two cable TV workers helped take the snake off the boy’s arm and put it in a garbage bag. Police rushed Teddy to Mount Sinai Medical Center, where he spent two hours attached to a heart monitor as a precaution in case the snake was poisonous. It wasn’t. Experts at the snakebite treatment center at Jacobi Medical Center in the Bronx, where policemen took the snake, found out it was a non-poisonous California king snake. But how did it end up in Teddy’s bed?
A little detective work determined that the snake had escaped two weeks ago from its cage in the apartment of a doctor whose family lives four floors below the Lasrys. The owner said his son’s pet snake likely traveled up the water pipes and into his neighbor’s apartment. “It’s a very gentle, very harmless snake, ”he said: “It’s handled by our family all the time.”
David Lasry believed the pet was simply hungry after two weeks of wandering. Evelyn said her son seems to have overcome his fright by thinking of himself as a hero cowboy as he rode in the back of the police car to the hospital.
“I told Teddy he’s a pretty snake, a nice pet snake who got out of his cage.” Evelyn said. “But he asked, ‘Why did he bite my finger, Mamma?’ And I said, ‘Because he saw that you are a big boy, Teddy, in your cowboy outfit and he got scared.’”
1.What did the babysitter do after Teddy was bitten by a snake?
A. She ran out of the apartment.
B. She took the snake off Teddy’s arm.
C. She called the TV company.
D. She made an emergency call.
2.We can learn from the passage that the snake_____.
A. was kept in a cage by its owner
B. was poisonous
C. was deserted by its owner
D. escaped to the apartment downstairs
3.Which of the following is true?
A. Teddy was awake when the snake arrived.
B. The snake had never bitten people before.
C. Teddy’s mother was at home when the snake turned up.
D. Teddy needed a heart machine to stay alive for two hours.
4.Teddy probably believed he was attacked because_________.

Bryan Forbes, who was born in London on 22 July 1926, made his first screen acting appearance in 1918.
He landed supporting parts in several outstanding British films, including An Inspector Calls (1954) and The Colditz Story (1955), but it was not long before screen-writing and directing attracted him behind the camera. Together with Richard Attenborough, he set up Beaver Films in 1959. Its first film, The Angry Silence (1960), was written by Forbes and Attenborough played the lead role.
His directing career began in 1961 with Whistle down the Wind, featuring child star Hayley Mills. Forbes directed many more films in the 1960s and early 1970s. In 1969 he took over as head of production and managing director of EMI—MGM Elstree, and the studio achieved outstanding successes. But it was a torrid time for the company. Troubled constantly by financial difficulties and staffing issues, Forbes quitted in 1971. He then directed The Step ford Wives, based on the novel by Ira Levin, and in 1975 International Velvet, starring Tatum O’Neal, in 1978.
Forbes, who counted the late Queen Mother among his friends, continued directing, writing and acting throughout the 1980s and early 1990s. He also found success as an author with a number of novels, the latest of which, The Soldier’s Story, was published last year.
After Forbes passed away, film critic Mark Kermode said, “Once I had fun—boyish pleasure of telling Bryan Forbes how much I loved Step ford Wives. He was charming and modest. A great loss.”
1.Having played several supporting roles, Forbes began to ________.
A. work as a cameraman
