ALiving abroad requires a small adjustment and balancing of cultures.Moving from Scotland to Austria,the differences aren't so great,perhaps,as moving to Asia or Africa.But things are still different enough to be unsettling (使人不安的).One of the first differences I noticed was the opening hours of shops here.During the week,supermarkets close at 7:30 p.m.,at the latest.On Sundays,they aren't open at all.On my first weekend here,I wasn't at all prepared for this.I planned to go into town to pick up things I'd forgotten to bring.I wanted to get some groceries,too,after a few days of eating out.A friend had warned me that nothing was open on Sundays,but I didn't realize she was serious.So,I wandered around town,coming across shop after shop with doors closed.I ate out again that Sunday,and I learned my lesson.To begin with,I thought it was highly inconvenient.What if I ran out of milk in the evening,or wanted to buy biscuits before bed?In the UK,I was so used to large supermarkets,which stayed open until at least 10 p.m.,if not for twenty-four hours.But now,I have to buy food every Saturday.“What do people do here on Sunday s?” I asked my flatmate.She just looked at me.“Nothing,” she replied.If it's inconvenient,then there's also something nice about it.Who needs to be able to buy soup or soap or bread twenty four hours a day?No one really needs to of course.But it's nice,too,to have Sundays completely free from material worries.Sundays here are all about relaxing for hours in coffee shops and spending time with friends.Sunday is a day of rest.People in the UK often complain,“I thought Sundays were meant to be a day of rest!”,while rushing to work,doing chores(家庭杂务) or standing in queues inshops.Well,here in Austria,it really is a day of rest.It's different,but it's a difference I can definitely get used to.1.Where does the writer probably come from?A.Britain.B.Austria.C.Asia. D.Africa.2.How did the writer feel when he was told shops didn't open on Sundays?A.Unhappy. B.Unbelievable.C.Delighted. D.Bored.3.What do Austrians usually do on Sundays?A.Do some shopping.B.Eat out with families.C.Work hard at home.D.Do nothing but rest.BShakespeare once called the English countryside “the precious stone set in the silver sea”—and he is not the last to sing high praises of its beauty and historical charm.The countryside is particularly beautiful during the summer,especially in August and September.As one travels the countryside,you'll find more of its treasures:so many plants and animals,romantic castles,secret gardens,and villages so unchanged in the last decades that they seem to have been caught under a fairy's spell.Must-sees include Derbyshire,called “the heart of England” and home to the National Park.The great peaks were the muse (创作灵感) of the Bronte sisters (and if you love the book Jane Eyre,you can visit North Lees hall,where the real Eyre family once lived).History lovers will enjoy a visit to Lincoln city (its most famous son is Lord Alfred Tennyson).It is also known for its cathedral,the charming tea shops,a small castle.One would never guess its violent past—built by the Romans,it was once a center for arrow (箭) making.Harry Potter fans shouldn't miss a visit to Alnwick,which is better recognized as the “Hogswarth” in the movies.Let's not leave out the Wessex region,where one can see one of England's greatest mysteries,Stone Henge.You can also go to the City of Bath,which has been famous for its medicines springs since the Roman times.Other popular attractions include Salisbury Cathedral,the landscaped gardens of Stourhead,and the cobbled (用鹅卵石铺的) streets of Shaftesbury.This is also home to Oxford,one of the world's most famous universities.Art lovers will also like a visit to East Anglia,whose landscapes inspired the painter Constable (he was born in Dedham village).This is also home of the University City of Cambridge,and the famous architectural attraction,King's College Chapel.Be sure to visit the aircraft museum of Duxford.4.The text is most probably taken from .A.a travel guide B.a book reviewC.a history paper D.a newspaper report5.What was Shakespeare's attitude towards the English countryside?A.Uninterested.B.Dissatisfied.C.Surprised. D.Admiring.6.According to the text,Lincoln city .A.produced arrows in the pastB.will be enjoyed by music loversC.was the place where the Eyre family once livedD.has one of the world's most famous universities7.When travelling the countryside,Harry Potter fans are advised to visit .A.the Wessex region B.DerbyshireC.Yorkshire D.AlnwickCDenmark is one of the happiest nations on earth with some of the best quality of life.You don't need statistics to understand the Dane's happy lot.Walk around any Danish town and you'll experience some of the most harmonious civic spaces anywhere.Their intimate scales and perfect transport systems combine the rich history and bold modern lines of the built environment to delight the eye,and the locals'manners and sense of humor is refreshing.Denmark's capital Copenhagen is a remarkable city with well-preserved medieval streets,renowned art galleries,Michelin-starred restaurants and a healthy business center.Finding something to do is never a problem and if all else fails,just admiring the streets with a hotdog in hand is an enjoyable way to spend a few hours.Beyond the capital and the bigger cities,Denmark offers a mix of lively towns such as Ribe and Odense plus rural countryside,medieval churches,Renaissance castles and tidy 18th-century villages.The coastline of Denmark with its sand dunes and greenery is a sight that always attracts visitors.So,no matter what time of year you're in Denmark,you shouldn't miss out on a trip to the nearest beach.It's hard,in short,to find fault with the place.The visitor's most heartfelt complaint is usually the cost of visiting Denmark.True,it is not a cheap destination,but no more so than the UK,and which nation's public transport system would you rather use?Cheer yourself up by thinking of the country's remarkable organization and clockwork railway timetable as being financed by the extremely high taxes paid by your hosts.When viewed in this way,this first-rate destination seems like good value,and you get the fairy tales thrown in for free:the Danish royal family is genuinely loved and respected by the vast majority of its citizens,not least handsome Prince Frederik,his beautiful Australian-born princess-bride,Mary,and their young family.8.The writer implies in the last two paragraphs that .A.visiting the UK will cost less than travelling in DenmarkB.the transport system in the UK can't equal that in DenmarkC.people in Denmark pay high taxes to welcome visitorsD.the Danish royal family plays an important role in politics9.How does the passage mainly develop?A.By providing examples.B.By making comparisons.C.By giving descriptions.D.By following time order.10.What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?A.To introduce Danish culture.B.To show the attractions of Denmark.C.To share experiences of travelling in Denmark.D.To describe the happy life people live in Denmark.11.Which of the following words can best describe Danes?A.Polite and humorous.B.Happy and romantic.C.Kind and friendly.D.Outgoing and humorous.DWhen I began planning to move to Auckland to study,my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India,where we lived.She worried particularly about the lack of jobs,the cultural differences and the chance that I would face racism.Despite these worries,I came to New Zealand in July 2009.I have found the place and people very nice and supportive.Soon after I arrived,I realized the importance of getting a job to supply my living expenses.Determined to do this on my own,I spent a whole day going from door to door asking for a job.However,I received little or no response.This became my routine every day after college for a few weeks.One afternoon,I walked into a building to ask if there were any job opportunities.People there were very surprised,and advised me not to continue my job search in that manner.As I was about to leave,a clerk in the building,who had been listening to what the others had said,approached me and asked if I would wait outside.Fifteen minutes later,he returned.He asked me what my plans were and encouraged me to stay confident.He then offered to take me to the Royal Oak area to search for a job.I was a little surprised,but had a good feeling about him,so I went along.Along the way,I realized that I had run out of copies of my resume (简历).The man stoppedat his business partner's office to make me 15 extra copies.He also gave me tips on dressing and speaking,and added that I should give him a call if I ever needed anything.I handed out my resumes and went home feeling very satisfied.The following day,I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job.It seems that the world always gives back to you when you need it.And this time,it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing.12.After staying in New Zealand for a short time,the author .A.decided to go back to his own countryB.felt the local people were not very friendlyC.had to find a job to cover his living expensesD.wanted to get a job that needed practical skills13.When the author went into a building to look for a job,.A.a clerk gave him encouragement and adviceB.he was confident that he would find a good oneC.he found many college students like him already thereD.a clerk recommended him to the company he worked for14.What is the story mainly about?A.How a stranger offered the author a job.B.How a stranger turned out to be a real blessing.C.How the author adapted himself to a new situation.D.How the author was helped to get a job by a stranger.15.What wasn't the author's mother worried about?A.People might look down on the author.B.The author couldn't speak the local language.C.The author wasn't familiar with local customs.D.It might be difficult for the author to find a job.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

人教版(2019)高中英语必修第二册Unit2单元测试(2)一、阅读理解(共3题;共20分)1.(6分)阅读短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
More than two thirds of the world's polar bears will be wiped out by2050,according to a shocking new study.By then,scientists say,global warming will have melted42percent of the Arctic sea ice.By2100, only a very few of these important creatures will be left.The report has been produced by the US Geological Survey.The scientists have publicized their findings in the hope of influencing US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne,who has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals,which are their main food. Without enough ice,polar bears would be forced to go onto the land,where they are killed by hunters,and would be unlikely to adapt to the life on the land in time.Experts say few little bears would survive and the stress could make many females unable to get pregnant.The team of American and Canadian scientists spent six months studying bears:on the ground,from spotter planes and in the lab,using computer models.Some team members fear the result is even worse for the bears than what their report says.They say the Arctic is warming faster than anywhere in the world and much faster than their computer had been forecasting,Satellite observations have showed that the ice has decreased to an all-time low.However,not everyone in the scientific community believes that global warming is happening on such an alarming scale.Another investigation has found that polar bears are still being hunted by wealthy "sportsmen"who want their skins and heads.At least ten international companies offer bear-hunting trips.(1)(2分)What do we know about Dirk Kempthorne according to the passage?A.He is an animal scientist.B.He is a protector of animals working for the US government.C.He was asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.D.He offered to put polar bears on the endangered species list.(2)(2分)Why will polar bears die out if there is not enough sea ice?A.Because polar bears can't catch enough food without sea ice.B.Because polar bears eat ice when they feel thirsty.C.Because polar bears will be easily found by hunters without ice.D.Because most female bears are used to giving birth under ice.(3)(2分)After a six-month study,some scientists fear that.A.there is something wrong with their computersB.polar bears will disappear even faster than they ever expectedC.their computer models are not as accurate as they expectedD.global warming will destroy everything in the Arctic2.(6分)阅读理解The British are known for their sense of humor.However,it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes.The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement.Understatement means saying less than you think or feel.For example,if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain,he might say,"It's a little damp(潮湿的)outside."Or,if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person,someone else might say,"She isn't exactly friendly."Understatement is often used in an unpleasant situation or to make another person look silly.Understatement plays an important part in British humor.Another key to understanding British humor is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others.They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidently falls over in the street.They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society.They like to make jokes about their accents,the way they dress and the way they behave.What's more,the British love to watch comedies(喜剧)about people who do not know how to behave in society. The comedies series Mr.Bean is a good example of this kind of humor.Mr.Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in1990.Mr.Bean doesn't talk often,and instead he uses his body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh.Perhaps what makes Mr.Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do.Mr.Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humor. Because of this,many people have become familiar with the British sense of humor.(1)(2分)Why is it difficult for foreigners to understand British jokes?A.The British often enlarge the fact.B.British jokes are connected with many different cultures.C.British jokes are not as funny as jokes in other countries.D.The British try to make out that something is less important than it is.(2)(2分)The author explains understatement by.A.describing a process B.making comparisonsC.following time order D.using examples(3)(2分)What can be the best title for the text?A.British Humor in Comedy B.Humor in Different Cultures C.Understanding British Humor D.Developing Your Sense of Humor3.(8分)阅读理解Where do the turtles go?Every summer,thousands of endangered green sea turtles climb onto beaches around the world. Each mother sea turtle produces100or more eggs in a hole,and covers the hole with sand before she swims away.Two months later,the eggs hatch,and the baby turtles climb out of the sand and swim into the ocean. They don't reappear until they have grown as large as dinner plates.Until now,no one knows where the baby turtles go or what they do."If we don't know where these little turtles are,we can't protect them,"says Kim Reich,who helps solve part of the mystery.Her teacher,Karen Bjorndal,has studied green sea turtles for more than30years.Every year, Bjorndal goes to the Bahamas Islands.Many young sea turtles come here to live and eat at the end of their childhood.These turtles are the only sea turtles that live as plant eaters.In fact,their name may be a result of what they eat.The turtles don't look green but they do have green fat.Scientists learned that the turtles eatgreen sea plants,which may turn their fat green.Between2002and2004,Bjorndal caught44green sea turtles in the Bahamas.After testing them, she found something to support the20-year-old idea:baby green sea turtles eat meat before they turn to a diet of plants.In fact,they eat animals that live in the open ocean.Scientists still need to find where exactly green sea turtles grow.We now know that baby green sea turtles are out in the open ocean,but the open ocean is a big place."It is really a problem,"says Bjorndal.The discovery may help us do a better job of protecting this sea animal.(1)(2分)What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A.Baby turtles go to the ocean when they are three months old.B.Mother turtles leave the eggs alone after they produce them.C.No one knows when turtles appear on the beach.D.Mother turtles are as large as dinner plates.(2)(2分)Kim Reich does research on where baby turtles go because she wants to. A.help her teacher B.prove an ideaC.protect turtles D.become a scientist(3)(2分)What does Karen Bjorndal's research prove about green sea turtles?A.The young live in the Bahamas Islands.B.The young eat meat before turning to a diet of plants.C.They live in the open ocean for a lifelong time.D.They are the only sea turtles that live as plant eaters.(4)(2分)What does the underlined word"It"in the last paragraph refer to?A.Finding out where young turtles grow.B.Protecting this endangered sea animal.C.Changing young turtles'eating habits.D.Living in the open ocean.二、任务型阅读(共1题;共5分)4.(5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

单元综合测评I .阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AEvery person has their own way of saying things, their own special expressions.Many everyday American expressions are based on colours.Red is a hot colour. Americans often use it to express heat.They may say they are red hot about something unfair. When they are red hot they are very angry about something. The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their colour and their fiery taste. Fast loud music is popular with many people. They may say the music is popular with many people. They may say the music is red hot, especially the kind called Dixieland jazz.Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say they're in the pink when they*re in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the 20th century.lt probably came from many babies who were bom with a nice pink colour showing good health.Blue is a cool colour. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hot music. Blues is slow, sad and soulful. Duke Ellington and his orchestra recorded a famous song—Mood Indigo一about the deep blue colour, indigo. In the words of the song:"You aren!t blue till you've had that Mood Indigo.^^ Someone who is blue is very sad.The colour green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural colour for humans. A person who has a sick feeling in his stomach may say he feels a little green.A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green.Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as his friend's, like a fast new car. That person may say he is green with envy. Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars of greenbacks .Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the colour of the back side of the paper money.The colour black is often used in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day.The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day. A blacklist is illegal now. But at one time, some businesses refused to employ people who were on a blacklist for belonging to unpopular organizations.【语篇解读】文章主要介绍了和颜色有关的习语。

Paracutin was born in Mexico in February, 1943. At the end of one week Paracutin was 500 feet high, and it is now over 9,000 feet high. Today Paracutin is asleep.What is Paracutin? It was the first volcano( 火山 ) in the world which was seen from its birth right up to the present day. On February 20, 1943, a peasant and his wife set out to work in their corn fields from the Mexican village of Paracutin. They were surprised to find the earth warm under their feet. Suddenly they heard noises deep in the earth and a small hole appeared in their field. In the afternoon there was a sudden loud noise and stones were thrown high in the air. The peasants ran from the field and turned to watch. They saw the birth of a volcano.Large quantities of stone and lava( 岩浆 ) broke out and a little hill began to form. By evening this hill was 100 feet high and hot ashes( 灰烬 ) were falling on the village. At night the strong light of the hot lava lit up the countryside. The trees near the village were killed and the villagers had to leave their houses. When the village was destroyed, its name was given to the volcano.

You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your behavior, but when you're asleep,your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course,people frequently change their position. The important position is the onethat you go to sleep in.If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normallytrust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don't like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You're quiteshy and you aren't very confident.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive( 不坦率的 ) person. You worry a lot and you're always easily upset. You're very stubborn( 顽固的 ), but you aren't very ambitious. You're usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.If you sleep curled up ( 卷曲 ), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you're often defensive.

It is said that there are about 40,000 different kinds of jobs in the world.1."Finding a job" is not the same as "choosing a job". Many young people end upin a job which they are not suitable for. 2. Here are a few steps to helpyou think about jobs which you might enjoy doing after school or university.First, it is important to realize what kind of person you are, which special qualities make you different from everyone else and what you are interested in.3. If you like art and enjoy looking at pictures, that is an interest. But if you can draw a horse that looks like a horse instead of a big dog, that is a skill.Then ask yourself this question: In the following three areas—skills with people, skills with information and skills with things—which are your best skills?After examining your skills, the next step is research. To find out as many different kinds of jobs as possible, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers. 4.Finally, trust your own ideas and your own thinking! 5.A.

First of all, there aren't enough stops in the streets. And taxis often run very fast, which caused many traffic accidents.Additional, some taxi drivers refuse to pick some passengers without any reason. Another terrible thing is that deeply at night taxis waiting around entertainment places make too much noise. A friend of mine living in another city once visited to me, and she told me a taxi driver once cheated her by taking a roundabout route. How will a guest think of our city after such bad experience? I think we must take actions to tighten control over the taxi trade. The last thing to do is raise the taxi drivers' professional morality.

It is also usually the most exciting. As the leader comes into the stadium to run the last few meters of the 42-kilometre race,the crowd rises to its feet to shout and cheer. The name of the race comes from a battle in Ancient Greece. According to the story,a soldier ran from the scene of the battle,Marathon,to Athens,to bring the news of a Greek victory against the Persians. He died just after arriving.The marathon has been an Olympic event since the modern games started in 1896.At first the distance was 40 kilometers—the distance between Marathon and Athens. In 1908,however,at the London Olympics,it was changed. The King of England wanted the runners to leave from his castle in Windsor and arrive in a new stadium in central London. The distance was 26 miles—about 42 kilometers. In fact,the1908 marathon ended dramatically(戏剧性地).When the leader,an Italian,entered the stadium he turned the wrong way and fell onto the ground. Officials picked him up and helped him to the finishing line,just as the second runner,an American,entered the stadium. The Americans protested(抗议)and in the end the American runner was declared(宣布)the winner. Since then,there have been many more exciting marathons.In fact,you don't have to wait for the Olympic Games to run or watch a marathon,as there are marathons in over sixty countries and hundreds of cities around the world today. One of the most famous marathons is in New York,and is watched by two million people around the streets and across the bridges of the city's five boroughs(纽约市的行政区),and past New York's famous landmarks. But perhaps one of the most beautiful and extraordinary(最特别的)marathons ever is the Great Wall Marathon,which most competitors find is the toughest course to run.The marathon is the final Olympic event because it is thought to be the hardest. But experts believe that most people—even people who are not particularly good at sport—can run a marathon,if they train for it. 36.When the leader comes into the stadium,the crowd________.A.run to his or her feet happilyB.shout with excitementC.carry him or her to the finishing lineD.sing and dance37.Who ran to the finishing line first in 1908?A.The American runner.B.The leading runner.C.The Greek winner.D.The Italian soldier.38.Which is the most special of the marathon events in the world? A.The Marathon in New York.B.The Marathon in the Beijing Olympic Games.C.The Great Wall Marathon.D.The Marathon in London in 2012.39.What's the main idea of the passage?A.Marathon is the most important event.B.Marathon is the most popular event.C.Marathon is the hardest event.D.Marathon is the final Olympic event.BWhen a child is told he is“uncool”,it can be very painful. He may say he doesn't care,and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it's not there. Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say,“Why are you worried about what other children think about you?It doesn'tmatter!”,children know that it does matter. Instead,an active way may be best. You could say,“I'm going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”If a boy is having trouble making friends,the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child's popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child,or let him be a partner with that child in activities,etc.There are things that parents can do at home,too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider delicious. When you plan trips,picnics,movies,and other shows,invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. Then,if he has good qualities,he can start to build real friendship of his own.40.A child who has been informed of being “uncool” may ________.A.care nothing about itB.do something uncool on purposeC.develop a sense of angerD.pretend to get hurt very much41.A teacher can help an unpopular child by ________.A.seeing the child as the teacher's favorite.B.asking the child to do something for partners.C.forcing other children to make friends with the child.D.offering the child chances to show his good qualities.42.How can parents help their child fit in better?A.By cooking delicious food for him.B.By being kind to his schoolmates.C.By forcing him to invite friends home.D.By taking him to have picnics in the park.43.The text is mainly about ________.A.how an unpopular child can be helpedB.why some children are unpopularC.what good qualities unpopular children haveD.who care about unpopular childrenCI used to know nothing about fairy tales. To improve my reading skills, my mother gave me books that are a little bit difficult for me to understand. I didn't even know that fairy tales existed until I attended public school at the age of eight. Of course once I found out about books of this type, I would read them as quickly as I could.Again and again, I begged my mother to take me to the library and let me choose a few. Finally, my request was granted. After our return from the library, I started reading them eagerly and energetically, one after another. And I tried to put myself in the female character's shoe. I found she had to suffer before the handsome prince came to her rescue, and then they would live happily ever after.I asked my mother why she never let me know about fairy tales. Looking straight in my eyes, she told me that life is not like a fairy tale. There are good and bad things that will happen through life. At the end though, there is not a man that will come and “save”us. We do not need saving; we instead want someone in our lives to share those good moments and bad ones; we want someone we can rely on and also they can rely on us. Life is not about “happily ever after”.What then is life about mom? Life is the boy finding he loves every little thing about you, even the annoying things. He holds your hands and says “come with me” and you live, laugh and love together. But things are not going to be perfect. You still have to face difficulties together, working hard for your relationship.44.Before the age of eight, the author________.A.received no formal educationB.took no interest in reading booksC.didn't read any books of fairy talesD.was forced to improve her reading skills45.What happened to the author after she attended public school? A.She started to like reading.B.She was crazy about fairy tales.C.Her mother always took her to the library.D.Her mother didn't allow her to read books of fairy tales.46.How does the author's mother like fairy tales?A.A must for her kid.B.Unnecessary for her kid.C.Easy for her kid to understand.D.Helpful in building her kid's character.47.The author's mother intends to explain that__________.A.life is not perfectB.no pains, no gainsC.life is about sharingD.one needs to live on his/her ownDAmerica is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while-then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. Thiscan be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don't show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time.Sometimes,we,as hosts,will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however,express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!48.The writer of this passage must be ________.A.a Chinese B.an American C.a professor D.a student 49.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A.Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B.Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.C.Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy. D.Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives. 50.The underlined words “generous with our time”in paragraph 3 probably mean ________.A.strict with time B.serious with timeC.willing to spend time D.careful with time51.A suitable title for this passage would probably be“________”.A.Friendships between ChineseB.Friendships between AmericansC.Americans' and Chinese people's views of friendshipsD.Americans' hospitalityEIs early childhood education really necessary? Early childhood education primarily focuses on learning through playing to develop the child's physical, sensory, communicational and social development. Earlychildhood education has become a concern of the government, who pushes poor children to be formally trained before they are old enough for kindergarten.There are good reasons for the government to push early childhood education. Studies have shown that orphaned children who did not receive good care and education become developmentally delayed causing failure in school, and even in life. Further studies show that poor children who take part in Head Start programs are more prepared for school, less likely to end up in Special Education classes, and are less likely to receive public help or go to jail.There are also negative parts to putting a child in formal education programs too early. Time Magazine Online explains that “the younger the child is, the less his chances of catching up with first-grade work.”I have personally witnessed many children of my generation who went to Head Start programs become frustrated and bored with school before they finished high school. Yet parents have been sure that the earlier the child starts school, the better off he or she is, so they push to start children earlier.Actually while early formal education of poor children does show great gains in the early elementary years, studies also show that this head start is really a “false start”,as the gains are lost in middle and high school years. It seems that environment is a bigger factor on life'ssuccess than early education. Head Start programs have not achieved its original goal in closing the achievement gap in poor and middle school children. Perhaps it is time to find other ways to close that gap. 52.The government values the early childhood education in order to________.A.develop the children's communicationB.help the children to learn by playingC.get the children prepared for the kindergartenD.train the children formally and regularly53.According to the studies,________.A.children with good early education may have a rich lifeB.the orphaned children are usually unhappy in their lifeC.children without early education can do well at schoolD. Head Start programs are helpful to the poor children54.The underlined word “frustrated” in Paragraph 3 means________.A.dissatisfied B.unsuccessfulC.disappointed D.dishonest55.The main idea of the last passage is that________.A.the early childhood education is very necessaryB.Head Start programs have helped the children a lotC.environment is the most important to life's successD.better ways should be found to help the poor childrenⅣ.书面表达(满分25分)众所周知,体育运动在人们生活中的作用越来越重要了。

AOnce upon a time, there was a beautiful bird, which was very curious about hell (地狱). When she was little, her mother always told her that if she didn't master the flying skills, she would go to hell. She was so curious about hell that she always asked others what hell looked like, but no one was sure, because none of them had ever been there. Some said hell was a place full of water, and others told her that hell was full of burning fire. However, the bird knew they were lying. She wanted to find out what hell was.When other birds were learning flying skills, she always hid herself and watched them. She thought in this way she could go to hell and see what hell looked like. However, she spent so little time learning flying skills that one day she was caught by a little boy. The little boy gave her to his grandpa inthe countryside as a gift. The old man liked her very much. He made a delicate (精美的) cage and put her in it. The bird was very worried because she thought she couldn't find out what hell was like staying in this small cage. However, she couldn't escape. Day after day, she just stayed in the cage, watching other birds flying. She lost her freedom and she became sadder and sadder. At last, she became ill. The old man finally opened the cage, but she was too weak to fly. Lying on the ground, she thought of the question that she ever asked all the time.“What does hell look like?”“Hell is a small welldecorated cage.” Before she closed her eyes forever, she finally answered that question herself.21.W hat does the underlined word “master” in the first paragraph mean?A.
