2、

Why is “buy things” in Chinese spoken as maidongxi (buy east and west) , but not mainanbei (buy south and north)?

One theory (假说) says maidongxi has 【1】 to do with the five elements (要素): jin (metal), mu (wood), shui (water), huo (fire) and tu (earth). In Chinese culture, the four 【2】 have to do with these elements. East matches wood, west matches metal, south matches fire, and north matches water. If someone carries nan (south) and bei (north) in a basket, it means to 【3】 water and fire, which is not even possible. But if one puts dong (east) and xi (west) in one’s basket, of course they can carry metal and wood.

There are also more common explanations.

One says that in the Tang Dynasty (唐代), there 【4】 two popular markets in Chang’an, the capital of China at that time. One was called the East Market, and the 【5】was called the West Market. When shopping, people usually went to the East Market 【6】, and then went to the West Market. As time went 【7】, people started to describe shopping as “buying east and west.”

The last theory is about China’s trading history. Around the 15th 【8】, China began trading with the world, and most of its foreign goods (货物) happened to come from the east (Japan) and west (Arabia). Markets 【9】 “things from the east and the west”. It was short for “east and west” 【10】.

Which theory do you prefer?

21、   There’s always something deep in our soul that never dies. I moved to the small, busy town of Edison in New Jersey six years ago. It was during the second term of my fifth grade. My parents got new jobs and higher income, so they decided it was time to move from Woodbridge to a better, more educational town.

In the US, it is unnecessary to take a test to get into a “good” middle or high school. You just attend the school close to where you live. So, many parents will think about the quality (质量，品质) of the local school when they decide to buy a new house. My parents did the same. We finally chose Edison mainly because of the high quality of its school.

In New Jersey, an area with a good school usually means a concentration of Asian people. There are about 300 students in our school. 55% are Asians and just under half of that are Chinese. There are so many Chinese people nearby that we even have our own Chinese school.

Edison is an old town, just like thousands of others in the United States. However, I have treated it as my hometown. That’s where I spend much of my youth, and the memories there can’t be moved at all.

【1】Why did the writer’s parents move to Edison?

A.Because they were born there. B.Because it was a better educational town.

C.Because the writer began his fifth grade. D.Because the writer didn’t need to take a test.

【2】How many students are from Asia in the writer’s school?

A.About 80. B.About 160. C.About 220. D.About 300.

【3】What does the underlined expression “a concentration of” mean in Paragraph 3?

A.A small number of B.The whole of C.A large number of D.None of

【4】Why can’t the writer forget Edison?

A.Because he regards it as his hometown. B.Because his parents got new jobs there.

C.Because there are many Asians there. D.Because it is in the state of New Jersey.

22、Each country has many kind people who volunteer to take care of others. For example, some high school and university students in the US often spend many hours as volunteers in hospitals or old people's homes. They read books for the people or just visit them and play games with them or listen to their problems.

Other young volunteers go and work in the homes of the sick people. They clean up their houses or do some shopping for them. For boys who don't have fathers there is an organization called "Big Brothers". University students and other people take these boys to play baseball

games and help them get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.

Each city has a lot of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games or take part in other activities. Some of these clubs show movies or have short trips to the mountains, the beaches  or the museums. Most of these clubs have a lot of high school and university students as  volunteers because they can understand the problems of these boys and girls more easily.

Volunteers believe that some of the happiest people in the world are those who help to bring happiness to others.

23、    One day in class, the teacher held up an apple, stood in front of the class and said, “Please smell the smell in the air!”

One student raised his hand and answered, “I can smell it. It is the smell of an apple.”

The teacher stepped off the platform(平台), passed by each of the students and said, “Smell again to see if the smell of the apple is still in the air.”

Half of the students raised their hands to show that they could smell it. The teacher returned to the front of the classroom and asked again if the students could smell the apple. Everyone raised their hand except one student. The teacher came to the student and asked, “You really can’t smell the apple?”

The teacher smiled at the student and said to the class, “He is right! This is not a real apple.”
