A
When I was a boy my father told me that he could do anything he wanted to. Dad said that he wanted to be the first to develop color prints in our city and so he did．
When I was 16，Dad looked closely at the violin I played and said that he wanted to make one．He read about violin-making, and then became a violin-maker at the age of 43. He bought the tools and materials, opened a small store and set Mom up as the shopkeeper, while he worked at a local company. He retired from the company 17 years later and continued to make violins and other instruments.
Dad often guessed why the Stradivarius violins sounded so beautiful. Some experts told him that it was the special varnish(油漆)that gave the instruments their beautiful sound．Dad argued that chemists could analyze the varnish—if that was the answer．
One of Dad?s friends asked him which kind of wood was used to make violins．When Dad explained that the top was made of spruce(云杉), his friend said that he had all old piece of spruce which Dad might 高考提分，学霸之路 www.99jianzhu.com
be interested in.
He worked for the next 12 months making a violin from the wood that his friend had given him. It proved to be an excellent violin and it would become Dad?s masterpiece. He believed that the secret of the Stradivarius sound was in the wood itself.
Later, the instrument was stolen, But he kept the music shop until he was 80 years old, selling guitars and violins.
The violin has been missing for more than 25 years．Somewhere a musician is playing a late-20th-century violin with an excellent tone．The owner today may never understand why this Ordinary-looking violin sounds so much like Stradivarius．

D. give an example showing that his father was an inventor
22. What did the writer?s father think about Stradivarius violins?

B. The wood of the violins was special．
C. The way of making them was unusual．
D. The varnish was different from the others．

According to EMTP and Stat Gear CEO Avi Goldstein, every driver should be taught how to get out of “Accidents and natural disasters often occur so quickly that it?s essential for drivers to be prepared,” says Goldstein. “In this case, preparation is simply knowing what should be done before it happens.” Goldstein offers the following lifesaving tips:
1.Try to stay calm. The worst thing you can do is become overly agitated and panicked.
2. Don?t try to open the door. This will cause the car fill with water very quickly.
3. Unfasten your seat belt or cut it if it?s jammed.
4. Help free anyone else in the car.
5. Use a window punch — preferably spring-loaded. It?s nearly impossible to break a car window with 高考提分，学霸之路 www.99jianzhu.com B. wanted to become famous D. liked the violin very much B. My Father and His Violin D. The New Owner of the Violin
your hands or feet.
6. Exit through the broken window and swim up to safety.
“Every car should be equipped with a window punch and seat belt cutter, but they are usually completely forgotten by car owners,” says Goldstein. For example, the T3 Tactical Auto Rescue Tool from Stat Gear features a 440c stainless steel serrated knife, seat belt cutter, spring-loaded window punch and LED light.
Goldstein asserts that the T3 or another similar tool should always be within arms length of a driver. “If for any reason a driver becomes pinned into his or her seat, emergency tools need to be within reach--otherwise they are useless. They will do you no good in your trunk or backseat.” The following is a quick demonstration on how to escape a sinking car with a baby on board.
25. What is the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 1?

C. stuck D. discovered 26. According to the passage, where should you put a window punch and a seat belt cutter in your car? A. Near the driver?s seat. C. In the back seat. B. In the trunk. D. Under the engine.

Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wine went up.
When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics.

There is a large percentage of Asian people in the US. They?re hard working, respectful but strange sometimes. If you don?t understand the culture, you will get some problems with them. Asian people are different from any other cultures if you think you know them, you might want to think again.
How are they different? When it comes to most Asian culture, respect is everything. You can do anything you want but don't disrespect an Asian man. You will get some real consequences afterward and especially if he is your boss. It?s something called “face saving” in the Asian culture. It?s ridiculous sometimes but it?s their culture. Sometimes their culture can come in between their relationship at work. Asian people might expect a lot of respect from their co-workers when their co-workers just see them as an equal.
Americans are very different from Asian people. If you?re Asian, you might want to understand the American culture and even adapt to their culture if you work with them. It will be easier for you since you?re in their countries. Imagine an American working in China, expecting Chinese co-workers to get along with him when he criticizes them straight out on every single matter in front of everyone. I think they 高考提分，学霸之路 www.99jianzhu.com
will take him outside and take care of him. It just doesn?t work that way with Asian people.
If you?re an American boss giving your Asian employee a review, you will see that they will have a problem with your negative remarks. They will think that you don?t like them, disrespectful, and want to get rid of them; when in fact, you?re just doing your job. Of course, it?s not fair for you as an American boss but just expect that it can be something that is on your Asian employee?s mind.

A. their cultures are different B. they don?t like each other

A. for the Asians to accept the culture in America
B. for the Americans to adapt to the culture in China
C. for people to learn the culture in a foreign country
D. for people to follow the culture in their own country
