Last summer vacation, I worked as a volunteer in a hospital, where I meet a little girl, Rosalyn, who was near eight years old. She just had operation in her leg but had to stay in bed for some time. I was amazing by her courage because she never cried even if she was suffered a great deal of pain. I once noticed her helping a little boy which parents couldn’t come to see him that day. She was sharing her sweets and toys for the boy and telling stories to calm him down. Soon she stopped crying. I wondered that if many grown-ups could be as kind as she was to others!

In a classroom in any country, the teacher teaches more than art or history or language.
65
In a society such as the United States, people with different history, culture and language join together and they highly value individualism. 66 Teachers try to make each student special. Students do not have to memorize a lot of information; instead, they work individually and find answers by themselves. There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age students learn to form their own ideas and opinions. Their education encourages personal thought. The importance is placed on how to arrive at an answer rather than simply to get the correct answer.
In most Asian countries, people have the same language, history, and culture. 67
Children in China and Japan often work together and help each other with homework. In the classroom, the teaching methods are often very traditional. There is not much discussion. Instead, the students repeat rules of information that they have been taught in order to keep them in mind.
68 In western countries teachers are taught to educate students. They make it easier for the students to learn for themselves. In eastern countries, however, teachers often feel that their task is to pass knowledge to students, or the students can’t learn anything.

A. In many ways these differences come from different educational psychology.
B. Their education, as part of the society, also values this greatly.
C. Some countries value both individualism and teamwork.
D. Perhaps for this reason, the education there shows society’s value in group goals and purposes rather than individualism.
E. He or she teaches what is known as the “hidden course” — the culture of that country.
A frightening example of the sea’s power saw 125,000 people die in 12 different countries last week. The terrible disaster was caused when a great earthquake sent tsunamis breaking into Indian Ocean coastlines. Various areas in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Malaysia and East Africa have been destroyed by the huge waves. Whole towns were simply swept aside by the power of the water. Cars, trains and buildings could not remain steady, not to say the people who stood in the way.
The earthquake measured 9.0 on the Richter scale and occurred off the coast of Indonesia. It was recorded as the fifth strongest since 1900. Scientists said the quake was as powerful as a million of the atomic bombs that were dropped on Japan during the World War II. “This may be the worst natural disaster in recent history because it is affecting so many heavily populated coastal areas.” said Jan Ege-land, a UN official.
Because such waves hardly happen in the Indian Ocean, there is no system in place to warn coastal people who are about to be hit. Tsunami is a Japanese word. They are usually caused by a sudden rise or fall of part of the Earth’s crust under the ocean. Tsunamis often happen in oceans and they are most common in the Pacific.
Tsunamis can be very long, as much as 100 kilometers. They are able to cross entire oceans without losing much energy. One of the most striking facts about tsunamis is that an earthquake on one side of the Pacific Ocean can cause huge waves on the other side.
When the ocean is deep, tsunamis can travel unnoticed at speeds of up to 800 kilometers per hour. They can cross the entire ocean in a day or less. The wave may only be a few meters high in the ocean, but when it is near the shore and reaches shallow water, the wave builds up very quickly in height.
61. How many countries were stricken by the terrible disaster?
A. 6. B. 12. C. 18. D. Not sure.
62. All of the following statements are true EXCEPT __________.
Tsunami is a word taken in from Japanese
Tsunamis are quite common in the Indian Ocean
The earthquake measured 9.0 on the Richter scale
No warning system has been set up to watch tsunamis there
63. We can know from this passage that __________.
the earthquake has been the strongest in the last century
the wave soon becomes higher when it reaches the shore
the atomic bombs were more powerful than the earthquake
tsunamis can cross entire oceans with almost the same energy
64. You’ll see the passage in __________ section of a newspaper most probably.
A. Sports B. Health C. News D. Culture
