12、 Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy. They feel heavy pressures from their parents. Most students are always told by their parents to study harder and better so that they can have a wonderful life in the future. Though this may be a good idea for those very bright students, it can have terrible results for many students who are not gifted (有天赋的) enough. Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hope. Such students feel that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they don't want to go to school any longer. They become dropouts.
It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers' work to help their children. To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to those schools opening in the evenings and on weekends—they only help the students to pass the exams and never teach them any real sense of the world.
Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students' hair to their clothes and things in their school bags. Child psychologists (心理学家) now think that such strict rules are harmful to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong and how to show love and care for others, even for their parents.
1. Who does "dropouts" refer to?
A. Those who make troubles in and out of school.
B. Those who go about or stay at home instead of being at school.
C. Those who try hard but always fail in the exams.
D. Those who lose hope and give up some of their subjects.
2. What makes the author surprised?
A. That Japanese parents are worried about their children.
B. That it is the teacher’ work to help their children.
C. That Japanese parents don’t give their kids help.

13、The Taj Mahal (泰姬陵）is considered to be one of the most beautiful buildings in the world and the finest example of the late style of Indian architecture(建筑）. It is at Agra in northern India. It lies beside the River Jumna in the middle of gardens with quiet pools.
The Taj Mahal was built by the Mogul emperor(皇帝） Shah Jahan, who ruled India in the seventeenth century. It is in memory of his favorite wife, born in Arjumand Banu Begum, known as Munilaz Mahal, who died in 1631. The building, which was completed between 1632 and 1638, was designed by a local Muslim architect (建筑师）, Ustad Ahmad Lahauri. The whole building, with gardens and gateway structures, was completed in 1643. The Taj Mahal stands at one end of the garden tomb with marble(大理石） path. The room is softly lighted by the light that passes through double screens of carved marble set high in the walls. The building now is kept in good condition.
It took 22 years to build the Taj Mahal. Shah Jahan planned a similar building, but in black instead of white, to lie on the other side of the river. But before it could be built, Shah Jahan was imprisoned (监禁）by his son and buried next to his wife in the Taj Mahal.
