postage whenthey received letters.Sometimes they didnt want to receive a letter at all,but they had to paymoney for it.They were unhappy about this.The postage was high at that time,because the postoffices had to send many people to get the postage.Rowland Hill was a schoolteacher in England.He was the first to think of using stamps in the1850s.He thought it would be much easier for people to use stamps.They could go to the postoffice to buy stamps and put them on envelopes before they sent the letters.The post office couldjust put seals on the stamps so that people could not use the stamps again.In this way,the postoffice did not need to send postmen to get postage.It only needed fewer postmen to send letters.1.People began to use stamps at the beginning of the nineteenth century.AA.TrueB.False2.Before stamps were used,postage was paid by the letter-receivers.CA.TrueB.False3.Rowland Hill _.DA.bought the first stampB.was a postman in EnglandC.gave the idea to use

it with me justbefore I walked into the restaurant.I wondered if it was possible that it could have slipped out ofmy pocket while I was eating dinner.Thinking about that possibility,I turned and walked back tothe table where I had been sitting.Unfortunately,there were several people sitting at the table atthe time,so I called a waiter and explained to him that my wallet had fallen out of my pocketwhile I was sitting at the table a few minutes earlier.I had the waiter go over to the table to see ifmy wallet was on the floor.While the waiter was looking for it,the manager of the restaurantcame up to me and asked me if anything was wrong.I didnt want to get a lot of people involvedin the problem,but I knew I had to get the wallet back.I told the manager what had happened.Hehad me describe the wallet to him,and then he insisted that I report the missing wallet to thepolice.I told him that I didnt particularly want to get the police involved in it;besides,I was in ahurry because I had an appointment with my doctor in just a few minutes.I explained to him thatmy biggest worry at the moment was how I was going to pay the check.He told me not to worryabout that.He had me

a good score on a certainkind of test,or even the ability to do well in school.These are at best only indicators of somethinglarger,deeper,and far more important.By intelligence we mean a style of life,a way of behavingin various situations.The true test of intelligence is not how much we know what to do,but howwe behave when we dont know what to do.The intelligent person,young or old,meeting a new situation or problem,opens himself up toit.He tries to take in with mind and senses everything he can about it.He thinks about it,insteadof about himself or what it might cause to happen to him.He grapples(努力克服)with it boldly,imaginatively,resourcefully(机智地),and if not confidently,at least hopefully:if he fails tomaster it,he looks without fear or shame at his mistakes and learns what he can from them.This isintelligence.Clearly its roots lie in a certain feeling about life,and ones self with respect to life.Just as clearly,unintelligence is not what most psychologists seem to suppose,the same thing asintelligence,only less of it.It is an entirely different style of behavior,arising out of entirelydifferent set of attitudes.Years of watching and comparing bright children with the not-bright,or less bright,haveshown that they are very different kinds of people.The bright child is curious about life and reality,eager to get in touch with it,embrace(捉住机会)it,unite himself with it.There is no wall;nobarrier,between himself and life.On the other hand,the dull child is far less curious,far lessinterested in what goes on and what is real,more inclined(倾向于)to live in a world of fantasy.The bright child likes to experiment,to try things out.He lives by the maxim(格言)that there ismore than one way to skin a cat.If he cant do something one way,hell try another.The dull childis usually afraid to try at all.It takes a great deal of urging to get him to try even once;if that tryfails,he is through.Nobody starts off stupid.Hardly an adult in a thousand,or ten thousand,could in any threeyears of his life learn as much,grow as much in his understanding of the world around him,asevery infant(婴儿)learns and grows in his first three years.But what happens,as we grow older,to this extraordinary capacity for learning and intellectual growth?What happens is that it isdestroyed,and more than by any other one thing,it is destroyed by the process that we misnameeducation a process that goes on in most homes and schools.11.The writer believes that intelligence is doing well on some examinations.BA.TrueB.False12.The writer believes that“unintelligence”is a particular way of looking at the world.BA.TrueB.False13.Why does the writer say that education is misnamed?BA.Because it takes place more in homes than in school.B.Because it discourages intellectual growth.C.Because it helps dull children with their problems.D.Because it helps children understand the world around them.资料下载来源：专升本资料共享群：692679648，英语口语交流群：168570356，大学数学交流群：702457289，语文文学交流群：132934369，大学化学资料群：691761499，大学生物资料群：734414430，14.“Theres more than one way to skin a cat.”Which of the following maxims has a
