There are many types of reports. A report is simply an account of something that has happened. The commonest are news reports. We get them in themselves, over radio and on television. Sometimes cinemas also show us newsreels. The main purpose of a newspaper is to provide news. If you examine a newspaper closely, you will find that there are all types of news: accidents, floods, fires, wars, fashions(服装), sports, books, etc. The news covers everything that happens to people and their surroundings. Sometimes there are news items which are very amusing.

A news report is usually very short, except when it is about something very important, but it contains(包含) a lot of information. It is also written in short paragraphs, the first paragraph is in fact a summary(总结) of the news item. It gives all the necessary information, what, when, where, how and why. The other paragraphs give full details of the subjects. There may also be interviews with people. The words actually spoken by them are within inverted commas (引号).

Dear Editor,

I used to be a doctor in the children’s department of a hospital. Sometimes I treated children who had been poisoned by medicine for older family members. The children didn’t know the medicine was dangerous; they just knew it tasted sweet. Children easily open the bottle that we now use in China.

Some days ago I talked about medicines with an American. He showed me a sort of plastic bottle. The design was quite simple and I’m sure our Chinese factories could produce these bottles. The top of the bottle licks but can be opened by pressing down on it while turning. This is difficult for most young children to do, though grown-ups can open these bottles very easily.

- 5 -

I’m certain that the expense of making such tops would be very small. As a doctor, I’d love to see this done. And most parents would be grateful（感激的）. Sincerely yours,

Li Hua

Sure, it’s good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.

And yes, it’s good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it’s smart to learn how to relate to the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.

But really, there’s one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do, “learning bursts right open,” says Evelyn Vuko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column called “Teacher Says” for the Washington Post newspaper.

In fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but they’re more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school issues, such as bullying(欺负人).

As a kid in a primary or middle school, you’re at a wonderful stage in your life. You’re like a sponge(海绵), able to soak up lots of new and exciting information. On top of that, you’re able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, and in most cases, is very excited to be the person who’s giving you all that material and helping you put it together. Remember, teachers are people, too, and they feel great if you’re open to what they’re teaching you. That’s why they wanted to be teachers in the first place to teach!

Some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive(敏感的) to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren’t going well, they won’t learn as well and won’t enjoy being

in class.

72. In the passage, the teacher mainly talks about _____.

A. how to get along well with teachers

B. the importance of a good relation with teachers

C. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachers D. how to make the time in the classroom more pleasant

73. “Learning bursts right open” in the third paragraph really means _____.

A. learning becomes easier for you at once B. you find an opening to learning

C. there’ll be more problems with learning D. there’ll be no problems with learning.

74. According to the passage, which of the following offers the best reasoning?

A. You are getting on well with your teachers, so you have more questions than others.

B. You find it comfortable to ask questions, so you can build a good relationship with teachers.

C. You have a good relationship with teacher, so you can turn to him/ her when in trouble.

D. You are in trouble, so you can build a good relationship with teachers. 75. Which of the comments is FALSE on teachers and their work according to the passage?

A. Teachers are exited if you wouldn’t like to accept their teaching. B. Teachers sometimes have the same feelings as students do.

C. Though few there are still some students who can learn even if they don’t like the teacher.

D. Having a bad relationship with your teachers does more or less harm to your studies.
