D
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, \“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.
47. In the passage, the author 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 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
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 your 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.
A. Teachers are excited even 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.
A Brief History of Slavery
It is said that the first known slaves lived more than five thousand years ago in the Sumerian society of what is now Iraq. 51. It expanded as trade and industry increased. This increase created a demand for the labor force to produce goods for export. Slaves did most of the work. Most ancient people thought of slavery as a natural condition that could happen to anyone at any time.
52. Sugar was one of these things. Italians set up large sugar farms around the twelfth century. They used slaves from Russia and other parts of Europe to do the work. By the year of thirteen hundred, African blacks had begun to replace the Russian slaves. They were bought or caught from North African Arabs, who used them as slaves for years.

By the 1500s, Spain and Portugal got American colonies(殖民地). The Europeans forced native Indians to work in large farms and mines in the colonies. 53. So the Spanish and the Portuguese began to bring in people from West Africa as slaves. France, Britain and the Netherlands did the same in their American colonies.
54. That was not true in the early years of the American nation. Many Americans thought slavery was necessary. Yet owning slaves was common among rich people in the early 1700s. 55. One example is the famous American diplomat (外交家), inventor and businessman Benjamin Franklin. He owned slaves for thirty years and sold them at his general store. But his ideas about slavery changed during his long life. Benjamin Franklin started the first schools to teach blacks and later argued for their freedom.
A. Today, most people in the world see slavery as unfair.
