　　Teachers spend countless years trying to make history come alive for their students．But US Director Shawn Levy attempts to do this on film in the recently released Night at the Museum．

　　The film is adapted from Milan Trenc's book of the same name．It brings to life a world where dinosaurs wander the earth, a former president rides again, warlike early Asians return, and cowboys and Roman soldiers seek to bring back their old goals．

　　The familiar comedy star Ben Stiller acts as a luckless dreamer named Larry Daley．He takes a position as a night watchman at the New York Museum of Natural History．

　　On Larry's first night, he's left alone by the three aging guards he's replacing．They fail to inform him of the museum's rather unusual nightlife．

　　Soon Larry finds himself chased down the hallways by the very lively skeleton of a dinosaur, in the middle of a confrontation(交鋒)with Asian warriors．He is caught in a territorial battle between a cowboy and a Roman general and meets face to face with former US president Teddy Roosevelt, played by Robin Williams．

　　They are each from an exhibit that has come to life through the magic of a priceless Egyptian tablet．

　　While the film fails to develop very much in some areas(for example, Larry's troubled relationship with a son), it does have enough special effects, and jokes to engage the audience．

　　Bottom Line：Definitely not Oscar-worthy, but a great way to relax during a holiday．

閱讀理解

　　The repairman told me, “No charge, Professor Pan! We’re friends．”

　　“I’d rather pay, ” I replied．“If it’s free, I can’t afford it!”

　　Chinese often refuse payment for professional services, insisting, “We’re friends now!” But then they show up later to ask me to tutor them in English, or get them into an American university, and I wish I’d have just paid the 30 yuan I owed them in the first place!

　　According to the Americans, “There is no free lunch．”, means that there’s a price for everything．And I’m always looking around to figure out what this means．

　　Many of our neighbours have given us fruit or flowers or costly teas, never asking anything in return．For years, a bicycle repairman has repeatedly refused to let me pay him．“Wait until you have something major to fix!” he insists．

　　I mentioned to a peasant friend that I wished I had a stone mill to grind(磨)flour for bread．A month later he showed up with a beautiful mill that he’d had his uncle in the countryside carve from a solid block of granite(花崗石)．

　　Chinese generosity(慷慨)is a real education for Americans　like me, who would rather avoid social entanglements(糾紛)and just hand over the money．But cash can’t compensate(補償)for the greatest gift－friendship．

　　When an American saw some of my friends sitting on bamboo stools under the trees, sipping(呷)tea, he said, “They must have nothing better to do．” “Actually,” I said, “they are professors, with plenty to do．But probably you are right in saying that, at this moment, they have nothing better to do．And neither do I!”?

　　And I joined the group．When chatted about tea and Chinese cooking and how much my boys have grown since we arrived．One man said, “They were pocket-sized when you came here．Now they’re taller than you．How time flies!”

　　How life flies．And Chinese are smart enough to share what they know they cannot keep．They freely give off their time, never too busy to help a friend．And they are teaching me, slowly, to both give and receive．So the next time someone says, “No charge．We’re friends!” I will thank them heartily．But if they show up later asking me to tutor them in English, I’ll make sure they tutor my son in Chinese as well, because there’s still no free lunch．

(1)

Why did the author insist paying the repairman while he was offered free repairs?

[　　]

A．

Because he was an upright man．

B．

Because he didn’t know the repair man．

C．

Because he thought it natural to pay for other’s service．

D．

Because he didn’t want to help others in return．

(2)

Generally, the author thinks that ________．

[　　]

A．

Chinese are generous and always ready to help their friends

B．

Chinese are good at exchange of equal values

C．

Chinese are free enough to drink and chat with their friends

D．

Chinese are helpful but don’t treasure time

(3)

The best title for the passage should be “________”．

[　　]

A．

Still No Free Lunch

B．

A Good Lesson From Chinese

C．

True Help Or Not

D．

Learn To Both Give And Receive

(4)

Which of the following is TRUE?

[　　]

A．

All the Chinese that once gave the author help have asked him to tutor them in English．

B．

When a peasant knew the author needed a mill, he made one for the author himself．

C．

The author thinks that Chinese are wise enough to enjoy the limited life．

D．

The author is not used to the Chinese ways to make friends．

閱讀理解

　　Isn't it astonishing how much time we spend talking about food? “Have you ever eaten…?” “What did you have for lunch?” and so on．And yet when you travel from one country to another, you will find that people have quite different feelings about food．People often feel that what they eat is normal(正常)and that what other people eat is strange or silly．In most parts of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice．In England, people eat potatoes every day．In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal．Eating like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change．Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee．The English drink tea four or five times every day．Australians drink a great deal of beer, and the French drink wine every day．

　　The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another．Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France．In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes．New Zealander eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat．The Japanese don't like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating raw fish(生魚)．

　　So it seems that although eating is a topic we can talk about for hours, there is very little common sense in what we say it．People everywhere enjoy eating what they have always eaten, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits．

(1)

[　　]

All people have the same feeling about food．

drink the same sort of wine

have the same eating habit

eat different kinds of meat

have the same tea at different time within a day

(3)

The Japanese don't like to eat sheep meat ________．

[　　]

A．

because they dislike its smell

B．

because it is too expensive

C．

because it is easy to go bad

(4)

English people drink tea four or five times a day ________．

because of their drinking habit

　　Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home．

　　What to Expect

　　The host will provide accommodation and meals．Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week．You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health．

　　Accommodation Zones

　　Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system．Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential(居住的)．Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area．It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground．

　　Meal Plans Available

　　◇Continental Breakfast ◇Breakfast and Dinner ◇Breakfast, Packed Lunch and Dinner

　　It's important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast．Your accommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice，cereal(谷物類食品), bread and tea or coffee．Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England．Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by dessert, fruit and coffee．

　　Friends

　　If you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host's permission．You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy．

　　Self-Catering Accommodation in Private Homes

　　Accommodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room．This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student．However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise English at home quite as much．
