21、   Modesty(谦逊) is a valuable quality in many cultures around the world. In China, this is no different. However, the phrase “毛遂自荐” seems to disagree with this.

During the Warring States Period, the Qin army marched on Handan. Seeing that Handan was in danger, Prince Pingyuan looked for help from the state of Chu. He wanted to pick 20 talented people to go with him. However, he could only find 19 people who were good enough. Then, a man named Mao Sui volunteered. Prince Pingyuan looked at Mao Sui with doubt, “How long have you been here with me?”“Three years,” Mao Sui answered.

“I hear that a person with talent is like an awl in a cloth bag. Its sharp point will soon pierce through the bag. You’ve been here for a long time, but l haven’t seen any of your achievements. Maybe you don’t have any talent.” said Prince Pingyuan.

“What I’m asking you now is to put me into that bag. If you do that, I will pierce through it. But not only the point-the whole awl,” Mao Sui said confidently.

Impressed, Prince Pingyuan allowed Mao to join his team, and Mao proved very helpful. Now the phrase “Mao Sui recommending himself” is used to describe someone who volunteers to do a task.

However, there is a fine line between self-confidence and arrogance(傲慢). It’s important to believe in yourself, but a strong ego(自负) can harm your career and professional relationships. So we recommend letting your work speak for itself.

【1】What is an awl like?

A.It has much talent. B.It has a sharp point.

C.It looks like Maosui. D.I t looks like a cloth bag.

【2】What does the phrase “毛遂自荐” mean in this passage?

A.Showing modesty. B.Feeling unconfident.

C.Being honest enough. D.Volunteering for a task.

【3】The underline words “do that” in Paragraph 5 refers to____________.

A.put an awl into a bag

B.put Mao Sui into a bag

C.let Mao Sui join the team

D.let Mao Sui leave Prince Pingyuan

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Modesty isn’t a valuable quality.

B.Mao Sui was a modest person.

C.Prince Pingyuan didn’t like Mao Sui.

D.We should believe in ourselves.

22、   Singing songs is fun, but is it also useful? For learning English pronunciation (发音) , Mr. Andersen thinks songs are the most useful way to learn. At the same time, you can learn some new words and phrases while singing songs. Mr. Andersen has used songs to help himself learn French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. You should do the same.

Some words used in songs are not everyday English, so you have to be careful how you use song lyrics (歌词) when you speak. Most words and sentences are very useful. You don’t have to sing songs aloud if you are shy , but after learning a song you should be able to follow the words without looking at the lyrics. When you can do that, you have learned something that you will never forget!

Some good songs to listen to are from the Beatles, John Denver and the Carpenters. Their songs are not too fast and the lyrics are close to normal spoken English. Just for fun, you can try Mr. Andersen’s favorite singer, B.B. King. His songs are not easy at all! If you can understand even 80% of “Why I Sing the Blues”, you are a very advanced student.

If you become good at singing English songs, you can try to go to karaoke and sing with your friends. When you are able to sing a song in another language, even if you don’t sing so beautifully, you will really impress (给……深刻印象) other people!

【1】Singing English songs can help us, EXCEPT ________.

A．pronounce correctly

B．remember new words

C．impress other people

D．sing songs better

【2】The songs from the Beatles are easy to learn, one of the reasons may be ________.

A．everyone likes the songs

B．John Denver’s voice is sweet

C．the lyrics of the songs are beautiful

D．the lyrics are close to normal spoken English

【3】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A．English Songs.

B．The Famous Band-The Beatles.

C．English Songs helps English Learning.

D．How to Learn English.
