3、t quite four years old. Marianne was learning to play the piano, and day after day Leopold stood behind her as she practiced. How patient their father was, and how cleverly he showed Marianne how to play some particularly difficult pieces! 71. She was making progress, very good progress, and that wa

4、s excellent. And there, almost lost in the big chair, sat Wolfgang, who never had to be told to keep quiet when looking over Mariannes shoulder. At that moment Wolfgang climbed on his fathers knees and begged to be allowed to play the pretty piece Marianne had now mastered. What a joke that was! Pic

5、king up his baby son, Leopold laughed and said, “ Look at your hands. You must wait, little man!“ .There was no end of the fun during tea, and Marianne had to tell her mother about Wolfgang wanting to play a difficult piece. When the meal was finished, Marianne helped to clear away the dishes. Sudde

6、nly Leopold got up. “ Listen!“ said he in a surprised voice. “ Listen!

10、mportant reason of doing something.（A）interest（B） efforts（C） talent（D）background5 Education is not an end, but a means to an end.72. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them; our purpose is to prepare them for life. As soon as we realize this fact, we will un

11、derstand that it is very important to choose a system of education which will really prepare children for life. It is not enough just to choose the first system of education one finds, or to continue with ones old system of education without examining it to see whether it is in fact suitable or not.

12、In many modern countries, it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for all - whether rich or poor, clever or stupid - one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such c

13、ountries a far larger number of people with university degrees than there are jobs for them to fill. Because of their degrees, they refuse to do what they consider“low“ work; and, in fact, work with the hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries.But we have only to think a moment to

16、tever job is suited to his brain and ability , and secondly, we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and it is very bad to be ashamed of ones work, or to scorn someone elses.

Archimedes is most well - known for one specific idea that he came up with. “ Archimedess Principle“ states that a solid object which is immersed in a li

20、quid is pushed up by a force which is equal to the weight of the water that the object moves.

21、while the gold weighs more.It is believed that Archimedes discovered this principle when the king of Syracuse asked him to solve a problem.

26、 influenced by both their parents and peer pressure.Other reasons they take that first drink are to be rebellious(反抗的), for curiosity or“ kicks“(刺激)or to escape an unpleasant environment.

27、oung people continue to drink or use drugs because they believe these substances can relieve boredom, increase energy, decrease anxiety, solve problems, or help them socially.
