　　Passage 106
　　(06•福建A篇)
　　Getting paid to talk about the World Cup is a great job. I’m not a football commentator(評(píng)論員),though-just an English teacher in Japan.
　　I came to Japan two years ago, and didn't think I would stay, but Japan has that effect on you. People often end up living here longer than they planned. I think it’s best to teach in a biggest city where there are other foreigners to mix with. Rather than a small town where English teachers often complain of feeling like a goldfish in a bowl. Many people choose to live in Tokyo, of course, which is good for the nightlife factor. But I’d say that for general quality of living, cities of neither too large nor too small, like Sapporo where I live, are better choices.
　　I teach English privately, which means I’m my own boss. If you want to devote yourself to private teaching, it’s well worth doing a TEFL course first. Because your lessons will be much better for it. The problem with private teaching is finding students; it took me a year to build up a full schedule(日程表)of private lessons, so I started out teaching in schools part time.
　　Most of my foreign friends here work full-time for big English conversation schools. The salary is fine to live on. But whether you can save money depends on how much going out and traveling you do here.
　　The schools are reluctant to take time off–even teachers with tickets for the England-Argentina game had trouble getting the day off.
　　56.From the passage we know in Japan the write likes to jive in_______.
　　A. Tokyo      B. a small town   C. a city of middle site    D. a big city
　　57.According to the writer, one had better ________ first to do private teaching better.

　　A. there are many foreigners in Japan
　　B. Japan is good for nightlife
　　C. they can teach English privately in Japan
　　D. Japan has something more attractive than expected
　　59.The underlined word “reluctant” in the passage may probably mean_____.
　　A. kind       B. unwilling     C. free         D. careless
　　答案  56.C  57.A  58.D  59.B
