Argentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place. Around 1870, it was experiencing an economic boom(经济繁荣), and the capital, Buenos Aires, attracted many people. Farmers, as well as many foreigners from Spain and Italy, came to Buenos Aires looking for jobs. These jobs didn’t pay well, and the people felt lonely with their new life in the city. As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city, the dance known as the tango came into being. At the beginning the tango was a dance of the lower classes(阶级). It was danced in the bars and streets. At that time women were fewer than men, so if a man didn’t want to be left out, his only choice was to dance with another man so that he could attract the attention of the women. Gradually, the dance spread into the upper classes of Argentinean society and became more respectable. In Europe at this time, strong interest in dance from around the world was beginning. The interest in international dance was especially strong in Paris. Every kind of dance from ballet to belly dancing could be found in Paris theaters. After tango dances from Argentina arrive in Europe, they began to draw the interest of the public as they performed their exciting dance in cafes, though not everyone liked the new dance, the dance did find enough supporters to make it popular. The popularity of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world. Soldiers(士兵) who returned to the United States from World War I brought the tango to North America, It reached Japan in 1926, and in 2003 a tango dancer of South Korea was hired to act as a kind of dance ambassador(大使) and push for tango dancing throughout South Korea. 1.According to the article, the tango dances came from ______ in the beginning. A. belly dancers B. American soldiers C. a Spanish city D. the capital of Argentina 2.If a man didn’t want to be left out in the tango dancing, he had to ______. A. dance in the bars or streets B. dance with another man C. look for jobs in Argentina D. perform dances in cafes 3.What do we know from paragraph 3? A. People in Europe didn’t have much interest in dancing. B. Both ballet and tango can be found in Paris theatres. C. Ballet dancing was very popular in Paris at that time. D. Everyone liked tango dancing when it came to Europe. 4.What can be the best title for the text? A. How to Dance the Tango B. The History of the Tango C. How to improve Tango skills D. The Modern Tango Boom

先通读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在文章后表格的空格内填入一个最恰当的单词。每个空格只能填一个单词。 Going to a British school for one year was a fantastic and exciting experience for me. A British school starts around 9 a.m. and ends about 3:30 p.m. It means I could stay in bed for an extra hour. On the first day, all the new students had a meeting. The headmaster told us about the school rules. He also told us that the best way to get respect was to devote ourselves to study and get high grades. This sounded like my school in China. We had to move to different classrooms for different classes. We also had different students in some classes, so it was difficult for me to remember all the faces and names. I found that the homework was not as heavy as what I used to get in my old school. Yet it was a bit challenging for me at first, because all the homework was in English. We had many subjects: English, History, Science, Art and so on, but we can stop studying some subjects if we have no interest in them. Then they can choose some other subjects. I missed Chinese food a lot at lunch. British food is very different. British people like eating desserts(甜点) which usually come after their main meal. After lunch, we usually played on the school playground or relaxed under a tree. I felt very lucky to experience this different way of life. I really hope to go back and study in Manchester again.
