Question: Discuss with your classmates and decide what type pf hotel would you recommend to the following persons? Mr Green: I am a business man who will have 3-day business trip in Shanghai. John Smith: I will go hiking with four friends. Are there any cheap places we can stay overnight? Mr Lee: I’m flying from London to Beijing in the late evening and continue to fly to Shenzhen early in the morning. Mr, Mrs Williams and 2 children: We are going to have 5-day holiday in Hangzhou, China. We want to relax ourselves and enjoy the happy time with families together. Mrs Nicole: I am arranging the Annual conference of our international company this week.
W: No. I got divorced years ago. Even worse, I got divorced when I had small children.
M: Have you thought of the effect divorce may have on your children? Their needs can be forgotten as parents are struggling to re-establish their lives.
W: Of course, we have. We are definitely more aware of the impact on children. After all we are not famous people who trade spouses like shoes. For most of us divorce is not entered into lightly. We all suffer. Anyway, we try to comfort our children.
M: How?
W: We tell them we love them and will always do.
M: You haven't thought of saving the marriage?
W: Yes, we have. We would do anything to spare our children pain. But you know, fixing a marriage is not like changing a tire. Family conflicts may take hold like a cancer.
M: Then divorce is the only way to get rid of it.
W: It's true with me. Others may succeed in fixing.
M: Yet most people believe a had marriage is better for children than a divorce. According to a recent poll, more people today think parents should stay together for the sake of the children What do you think?
W: I think the cost of staying together is worse than the benefits. Parents quarrelling and fighting all day may do more harm to their children.
M: What do you want society to do for you?
W: Understand us, not curse us. More importantly, they should help us share the loss and build a better future.

Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.
Education is one of the key words of our time. A man without an education, many of us believe, is an unfortunate victim of unfortunate circumstances deprived of one of the greatest twentieth century opportunities. Convinced of the importance of education, modem states "invest" in institutions of learning to get back "interest" in the form. of a large group of enlightened young men and women who are potential leaders. Education, with its cycles of instruction so carefully worked out, punctuated by textbooks—those purchasable wells of wisdom—what would civilization be like without its benefits?
So much is certain: that we would have doctors and preachers, lawyers and defendants, marriages and births; but out spiritual outlook would be different. We would lay less stress on "facts and figures" and more on the capacity of a man to get along with his fellow citizens. If our educational system were fashioned after its bookless past we would have the most democratic form. of "college" imaginable. Among the people whom we like to call savages all knowledge inherited by tradition is, shared by this respect that everybody is equipped for life.
It is the ideal condition of the "equal start" in which only our most progressive forms of modem education try to regain. In primitive cultures tile obligation to seek and to receive the traditional instruction is binding to all. There are no "illiterate"—if the term can be applied to people without a script—while our own compulsory school attendance became law in Germany in 1642, in France in 1806, and in England in 1976, and still non-existent in a number of "civilized" nations. This shows how long it was before we considered it necessary to make sure that all our children could share in the knowledge accumulated by the "happy few" during the past centuries.
Education in the wilderness is not a matter of financial means. All are entitled to an equal start. There is none of the hurry that, in our society, often hinders the full development of a growing personality. There, a child grows up under the ever present attention of his parents; therefore is jungles and the savages know of no "juvenile delinquency". No necessity of making a living away from home results in the neglect of children, and no father is confronted with his inability to buy an education for his child.
The passage implies that many countries lay great emphasis on education because ______.
A.they want to get back monetary rewards
B.without education, people would be deprived of the greatest twentieth century opportunities
C.they want to cultivate the potential leaders
D.the well educated generation is the future of those countries
