The Yaos (瑶族人) live in mountain communities scattered over 130 counties in five southern China provinces and one autonomous region. About 70 percent of them live in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and the rest live in Hunan, Yunnan, Guangdong, Guizhou and Jiangxi provinces.
Half of the Yaos speak the Yao language, which belongs to the Chinese-Tibetan language family; others use the Miao or Dong languages. As a result of close contact with the Han and Zhuang cultures, many Yaos also have learned to speak Chinese or Zhuang.
Before 1949, the Yaos did not have a written language. Ancient Yaos kept records of important affairs by carving notches(凹口) on wood or bamboo slips. Later they used Chinese characters. Hand-written copies of words of songs are on display in the Jinxiu Yao Autonomous County in Guangxi. They are believed to be relics of the Ming Dynasty. Ancient stone tablets engraved(雕刻) with Chinese characters can be found in a lot of Yao communities.
During the Ming and Qing dynasties, cattle and iron tools spread among the Yaos in Guangxi and Guangdong. They dug ditches and built troughs(水槽) to draw water from springs for daily use and irrigation. Sideline occupations (副业) such as hunting, collecting medicinal herbs, making charcoal (木炭) and weaving were pursued side by side with agriculture. The Yaos practiced an interesting form of cooperation called “singing-while-digging”. This can still be seen in Guangxi today. At times of spring ploughing,20 to 30 households(住户) work together for one household after another until all their fields are ploughed and sown. While the group is working, a young man stands out in the fields, beating a drum and leading the singing. Everyone sings after him.

Joan Rivers was determined to become a successful comedian(喜剧演员). “As far back as I remember，”she said, “I wanted a career in show business. But people were telling me no.”
She was living in a dirty cheap hotel and had been turned down by every talent agent in New York, when she got her first job in 1958. How exciting! Maybe this was her big break. But after her act on the first night, the manager called her over, saying“You're fired”．
“I was completely disappointed，”she sighed. “Fired! Fired from my first job! I went back to my hotel room helpless. I really could not stop crying.”
Soon she was booked again and then fired from her second job. “There's just no work，”all the agents would say, shaking their heads, or worse yet, “You're too old. If_you_were_going_to_make_it,_you_would_have_made_it_by_now.”Even her mother told her, “You have no talent. You're throwing your life away.”
“I had no money. My office was a phone booth(电话亭)in Grand Central Station. I lived out of one small suitcase and slept in my car，”said Joan Rivers, a famous comedian, author, mother,
businesswoman and best-known for her Emmy Award-winning television talk show and many other successes.
What does Joan have to say about all those tough pre-success days? “All in all—not an easy time. It did, however, serve to shape the determination and an inner(内在的)strength that I have called on in my life many times since.”
And Joan's final words to us：“Never stop believing! Never give up! Never quit! Never！” 文章大意：本文主要讲述了美国著名的喜剧演员Joan Rivers在成功前所经历的一些艰难困苦。
5．Which would be the best title for the text? A．A Story from Joan Rivers B．Determination Helps Make It C．A Comedian—Joan Rivers D．Failure Is the Mother of Success

6．The underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph implies that Joan Rivers________. A．was an unlucky person B．wouldn't succeed in the future C．were too old to do anything D．would become a great comedian
答案：B 句意猜测题。句意：如果你能成功的话，你早就成功了。这暗示了Joan Rivers将来也不会成功。故答案选B。
7．According to the text, Joan Rivers________. A．once built her office in a telephone booth B．was not good at finding jobs C．had written many famous novels D．did well in the television talk show

8．What's the main purpose of the text? A．To tell readers not to give up doing anything. B．To tell Joan Rivers's interesting story.

Culture determines what kind of thinking is important and what kind is not so important. Learners use the language, tools, and practice of their culture to learn concepts. Although students have their individual learning styles, their learning styles are often combined with cultural values. For example, Navajo(North American Indians living in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah)children often learn first by observing and listening. Then, when ready, they continue learning on their own in cooperation with and under the supervision(监视)of an adult. In this way, the children learn all the skills they need. Navajo children speak very little during this process. In_contrast,_many African-American children learn effectively by acting and performing. They like classroom activities such as oral presentations, role-plays, and dramatic performances. Lots of talking is useful for these students. Another way of learning is through reading and writing.
