Through examination, teachers can know well about what students have mastered and what they haven't. As for the students, they can cheek their study. Examination can also inspire the students to 4 their studying methods and to work together. Although exam has so many 5 , we must use it reasonably, because too many exams will be burdens for both teachers and students.
[解析] 11-15 There are many arguments about examinations. Some people think examination is the only way to test how well the students have mastered the knowledge.

Through examination, teachers can know well about what students have mastered and what they haven ' t. As for the students, they can check their study. Examination can also inspire the students to improve their studying methods and to work together.

Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehenstion Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.
Task 1 Gestures are the silent language of every culture. We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say. It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood. In the US, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal discussion. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the other's arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet each other with a hug(拥抱). Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand a bout 2.5 feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get un comfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch an other person by accident, they say, "Pardon me. "or" Excuse me." Americans like to look at the other in the eyes when they are talking. If you don’t do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. When you stare at someone, how ever, it is not polite. For Americans, thumbs up means "yes", "very good" or "well done". Thumbs-down means the opposite. TO call a waiter, one might put up one hand to head level or above. To show you want the check, make a movement with your hands as you are signing a piece of paper. It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger(食指). Americans shake their index fingers at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them. Learning a culture's body language is sometimes confusing (困惑的). If you don't know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.
1. When you shake hands with an American, you should ______.
A.shake his / her hand firmly
B.put your hands on his / her shoulder
C.shake his / her hand gently
D.give him / her a hug afterward

2. In the US, people usually ______ if you stand too close to them.
A.feel friendly
B.get uncomfortable
C.keep still
D.hit you angrily
A B C D
