26、   I decided to go back to school in the fall of 2008 after not being happy with my current job and financial status. I obtained my Associate Degree in May 2002 in Commercial Arts. After graduation, I had trouble obtaining a job in that field. For years, I was going from one job to another feeling unfilled, and I was not satisfied with the instability.

I decided to go back to school for either International Business or Psychology. I weighed the pros and cons of both professions and Psychology won. I like helping my friends and family, when they go through hard situations in their life by giving them sound advice and being honest with them.Also, I was interested in “the mind”.

I was searching for online schools because my work schedule at my current job would not allow me to attend a regular class. I was nervous about starting online classes because I heard mixed stories from other friends who were taking online classes. I decided to do it anyway to experience something different. I wanted to find an online school that was affordable and reputable. Through my search, I discovered Walden University, which is specially for working adults who want to obtain a bachelor’s degree or higher. The process of getting accepted was easy, which included writing an essay on why I wanted to attend their school, transferring my previous credits,etc.

I am currently enrolled in the Bachelors program for psychology, and I am paying for college via financial-aid loans and grants. This experience has been interesting yet trying as sometimes it was difficult to balance work, school and home life. I learned a lot about psychology and myself. For example, I like writing about current events, relationships and traveling. I thought my English composition was ordinary, but after taking a few classes at Walden University, I improved my English composition and it made me feel confident enough to start writing professionally so I became a freelance (自由撰稿) writer. Currently, I am only three classes away from obtaining my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology! It was one of the best decisions I made in my life.

27、

Recall(回忆) how you find a name in a telephone book? You don't read any more than necessary to find the name you look for. Notice that you go directly down a column of news. Maybe you use your finger to guide your eyes. This type of reading is usually called scanning. 【1】In scanning, you know what you are looking for. In skimming(略读) you don't.

Since you don't know exactly what you are looking for while skimming, prepare yourself by reading the title, source, author and picture. Then you question yourself-who, what, when, where is this likely to be mainly about?【2】Look for exact names of people, places, things, ideas, numbers and words like therefore, whenever, until, because and instead, to inform you of how and why.

【3】You will soon be able to discover important facts and strange vocabularies by this important step. And you even can find words that are clues to important relationships.

It's a good practice to skim everything in mass media after reading the title and first paragraph. You may get all the information you want. 【4】

Skim everything you intend to read before you make a final decision to read or study the material. Skim all highlights and develop a read-skim pattern for rapid review. 【5】 Reviewing frequently and rapidly is the best way to remember information from notes and long texts.

A.And don't miss this!

B.It is quite necessary to learn scanning.

C.Soon you will note new or unusual vocabularies.

D.This keeps your skimming skills from becoming worse.

E.Skimming is a step you should always take before you read any article.

F.With a questioning mind, you direct your eyes down the column of print.

G.Skimming uses the same type of skill in form but a different skill mentally.

28、Things You Shouldn’t Do While Shopping

● Leave your kids alone.

If you plan to bring your children with you to do holiday shopping, make sure that they are well-rested and fed. 【1】 It’s also not the staffs responsibility to watch over your children since they have to attend to other customers. If you do have to take your kids with you, use this as an opportunity to teach them the manners every parent should teach their children.

● Park like you own the place.

The only thing worse than shopping in stores during the holidays is parking at the store. Be patient in the parking lot and avoid unnecessary honking (鸣笛). It is also suggested that you leave your car at home and take a cab, Lyft, or Uber instead. 【2】

● Keep the shopping cart (购物车) in the middle of the passageway.

Keep in mind that the flow of traffic in the passageways is the same as on the road—stick to the right and let people pass on the left. 【3】 You shouldn’t park your shopping cart in the middle of the passageway, because that could make it difficult for other shoppers to get by.

● 【4】

29、   When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.

I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.

In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.

However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear.

After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don’t show my feelings through words.

【1】The author brought the couple their food very fast because _______.

A.the manager asked him to do so B.the couple wanted him to do so

C.he respected the elderly D.he wanted more pay

【2】When the author called the couple “elderly”, they became _______.

A.nervous B.unhappy

C.satisfied D.excited

【3】After this experience, the author _______.

A.changed his way with older people B.made friends with the couple

C.no longer respected the elderly D.lost his job in the restaurant

【4】Which of the following is TRUE?

A.The more the author explained, the angrier the couple got.

B. The author wanted to show his feelings through words after his experience.

C.From this experience, the author learned more about American culture.

D.The manager went back to the table and apologized to the couple.

30、   The ancient art of opera can be brilliant entertainment; it is a(n) _________ of music, drama, and sometimes dance, staged with elaborate(精心制作的) sets of costumes. Opera is often _________ by many, however, partly because of some of the stereotypes(成见) associated with it. Some of its critics say that the narratives are too complex. Others complain that operas cannot be understood because they are often performed in _________ languages. Stereotypes aside, opera is an art form enjoyed by many _________ lovers. Operas can be comedies or tragedies or stories taken from history.

The story of an opera is generally simple so as to avoid  _________ the audience from the music. The libretto, or script, sets each scene and describes the action in both words and stage directions. The music of an opera—the way it advances the action and the feelings it inspires in the listeners—is _________ important. The three principal musical _________ are the overture(前奏曲), the recitative(朗诵调), and the aria(咏叹调).

The overture is the instrumental introduction to the opera, the purpose of which has been _________ over time. During the nineteenth century, the overture began to combine snippets of melodies from arias, ballets, and other musical elements in a medley of the opera’s musical themes.

A recitative is less a song than a monologue(独白) that is sung rather than _________. A recitative is an element, older than the overture, which was invented at the beginning of the seventeenth century as a means of telling__________ in music; the first operas were actually a series of recitatives joined by musical interludes. Because an opera is basically a play set to music, the recitative is a means of telling the __________ what is going on and what is about to happen.

An aria is a solo performance—often one of the highlights of the opera. Arias can be declarations of love or __________ of hope, happiness, sorrow, or anguish.
