When someone says, “Well, I guess I’ll have to face the music”, it doesn’t mean that he is going to hear a singer. It is something far less happy, as you are called in by your leader to explain why you did this and did that or why you did not do this or that.
At some time or another, every one of us has to “face the music”, especially as children. We can all remember father’s angry words “I want to talk to you.” And only because we did not listen to him. What a bad thing it was!
In the middle or at the end of every term, we students have to “face the music”. The result of the exam will decide whether we will face the music or not. If you got a “D” in the exam, that means parents’ cold faces and the contempt(輕視) of the classmates.
“To face the music” is well-known to every American, young or old. It is at least 100 years old. It really means that you have to do something, no matter how terrible the whole thing might be, because you have no choice.
【小題1】“To face the music” means “to ”.
| A．do something that we don’t like to |
| B．go to the theatre |
| C．go to the music show |
| D．do something we want to |
| A．we like to take the exam |
| B．we are afraid of taking the exam |

Albert was an ordinary worker in an oil company in America. His workmates gave a nickname（綽號）“Four dollars a bucket of oil” below his name whenever and wherever he wrote down his name.
As time went by, people forgot his real name. Later, when Rockefeller, the board chairman(董事長)of the oil company, heard of it, he was very surprised, so he invited Albert to come to his office.

When you cough or sneeze(打噴嚏), please turn your head away from others and cover
your mouth with the full part of your hand. Afterwards, you should say, “Excuse
me.” This is a rule I set for my students. It is so simple, but many kids have
never been told to do this. In fact, I noticed adults cou
gh
and sneeze in public without putting a hand over the mouth. I hate traveling by
subway in New York during cold and flu season, because it is certain that
someone is going to stand right behind me and cough or sneeze on my neck.
One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hand, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. Otherwise, they will be passing those germs(細菌) along to everything and everyone they touch. In order to help the kids remember this rule, I tell them about an old story. It says that when you sneeze, evil spirits jump into your body. If you don’t cover your mouth, the spirits will enter, but if you cover your mouth, you will keep them out. We say “God bless you” when someone sneezes, and in Germany you should say “Gesundheit.” That means “Good health to you.” Both expressions are said—just in case you didn’t cover your mouth in time and the spirits were able to enter your body. The kids love finding out the origins(起源) of these expressions and it encourages them to put advice to use more often.
1.The writer of this article must be _________.
A. a reporter B. a teacher C. a doctor D. an officer
2.What does the underlined word “this” mean?
A. Don’t cough or sneeze in front of people.
B. Don’t stand beside someone who coughs or sneezes.
C. Many people cough or sneeze on the underground train.
D. Cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing and say sorry.
3.After coughing or sneezing on their hand, students are advised to _________.
A. say “God bless you” immediately
B. wash their hands as soon as possible
C. go to see a doctor as soon as possible
D. go home and have a good rest
4.According to the article, the writer would like the kids _________.
A. to be polite to adults B. to be in better health
