The father, Leopold, was a master of music in Austria. His mother was warm-hearted. There were two children, Marianne, a schoolgirl, and little Wolfgang, a

17、child not 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! She was making progress, very good progress, and tha

18、t was 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!

19、 Picking up his baby son, Leopold laughed and said, “Look at your hands. You must wait, little man!“There was no end to 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. Sudd

20、enly Leopold got up. “Listen!“ said he in a surprised voice. “Listen! Marianne is playing the piece better than ever!“But Marianne was washing dishes in the kitchen.His wife following, Leopold walked quietly upstairs, the lamp in one hand, his music book in the other.

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 u

30、nderstand 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

31、.In many modern countries, it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for allwhether rich or poor, clever or stupidone 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 countr

32、ies 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 und

33、erstand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor. We can live without education, but we will die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we would have terrible diseases in our towns. In countri

34、es where there are no servants because everyone is ashamed to do such work, scientists have to waste much of their time doing housework.In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to prepare for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever

35、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. Only such a type of education can be called valuable to society. 44 Education is_.（A）a purpose（B） a means（C） fashiona

36、ble（D）the first system 45 In many modern countries, children go to school_.（A）by free education（B） to be able to marry（C） to work for society（D）to rid themselves of “low“ work 46 In our country, the educational purpose is_.（A）to make children get degrees（B） to prepare children for life（C） to get eve

37、ryone to live happily（D）to choose a system of education 47 Cleaners and farmers do _scientists do.（A）the same work as（B） less important work than（C） more work than（D）as important work as 47 Archimedes was a famous Greek mathematician and scientist. He was born around 287 BC and he died in the year 2

38、12 BC.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 liquid is pushed up by a force which is equal to the weight of the water that the object moves. For example, if you put a piece of wood and a piec

39、e of gold the same size in water, only the wood will float. Both the wood and gold move the same amount of water, but the wood weighs less than this water, while the gold weighs more.It is believed that Archimedes discovered this principle when the king of Syracuse asked him to solve a problem. The

40、king wanted to know if his crown was pure gold or a mixture of gold and silver. The king, of course, did not melt his crown to find out. The idea came to Archimedes as he lowered himself into his bath. He noticed how the water spilled out of the tub. He decided to use the same idea for the crown. He

41、 knew that a gold crown immersed in water would weigh more than one made of silver. The experiment was done and the goldsmith was proved guilty of trying to cheat the king.48 A good title for the selection is_.（A）Archimedes（B） Archimedess Principle（C） A Gold and Silver Crown（D）The King of Syracuse 4

42、9 The word “immersed“ in the second paragraph means“_”.（A）lifted（B） raised（C） rose（D）under water 50 We drop a piece of metal into a jar full of water, the metal will float if it weighs less than_.（A）an equal amount of silver（B） an equal amount of gold（C） all the water in the jar now（D）the water that

43、 leaves the jar 51 From this selection we may conclude that the kings crown_.（A）moved less water than pure gold of the same size（B） moved more water than pure gold of the same weight（C） moved more water than pure gold of the same size（D）moved less water than pure gold of the same weight 51 From the

44、beginning rivers have played an important part in the life of man. Man of the earliest times used the rivers as a means of traveling. Today rivers still serve as a great waterway for the transport and people.In ancient times, man settled near rivers or on river banks and built up large empires.Water

45、 is the Natures most precious gift to man. Man needs water to irrigate his crops, to cook and to wash. In nations all over the world rivers mean life and wealth. They feed and clothe the nations around them.Water is also a source of energy and power. Man constructs huge dams across the river to cont

46、rol the water for irrigation and get the energy needed to drive generators. The electrical power is then directed to homes, cities, factories and television stations.Man uses water each day. His main source of water comes from reservoirs, which in turn get their water from the rivers.Rivers also bri

47、ng down soil and minerals from the mountains and deposit them on the plains building up rich river deltas for raising plants and crops. Fresh water life in rivers or in lakes fed by them provide man with food.In a small way rivers help to keep man in good health and provide for his amusements. Vario

48、us forms of water sports keep man strong and healthy.Rivers have run on this earth long before man. Mans future ability to live is uncertain, but rivers will flow on forever. 52 Rivers have been important to man_.（A）since the last century（B） for a very long time（C） since a few hundred years ago（D）si
