文檔簡介
1.出題人:李巧梅 America 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. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) 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 dont 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!66.

They cant even understand a bit of music.” “Im never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us.” But, one younger musician said, “There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month, and Im trying to find other places to play. Im also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.” Ive heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are. Attitudes are important. Whether theyre positive or negative, theyre rubbing off on you. If youre around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians, or blame (責(zé)怪) others, and you play the role of victim (受害者), chances are you will start to as well. So its time to take a look at the people you call “friends”. This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you hang out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard (標(biāo)準(zhǔn)) for yourself and dont become friends with people who fall below that standard. Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it. Ask if they will help you get the work youre looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.71. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A.

Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (撲), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater. Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free. Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds (傷口) in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of her fingers. “This could have been a fatal and tragic situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report. He said Ms Pethrick was saved by her husbands “quick and diligent actions”. Dr Notaras also said she would remain in hospital for three to four days and have an operation to clean the wounds, which are easy to get infected because of bacteria (細(xì)菌) on the teeth of the crocodile.56.

In October of 2008 the same developer announced plans for the worlds tallest building. But the world economic downturn (衰退) soon forced the Nakheel company to stop the plan in Dec 2009.Dubai is in the United Arab Emirates. But ,unlike its neighbour Abu Dubai, oil has not fueled Dubais growth. Instead, the real estate (房地產(chǎn)) and service industries have led its reaction had some investors worry. Dubais largest investment company called for a six-month delay in paying some of its debts. All of it is linked to the Nakheel company, which is part of Dubai world.The government owns Dubai World and will take control of its reform. But Dubais finance chief said the government didnt guarantee its debt. The company is not an investment tool for the government. Ghiyath Nakshbendi of American University in Washington notes that the problems are linked to a worldwide sudden fall in real estimate prices. Ghiyath Nakshbendi said: “Emerging marks are as a victim to the world economic downturn as any other economy and there are no exceptions.”He siad Dubai and its leaders had too much to lose to let creditors - like banks in Britain - suffer losses. Dubai World was faced with selling properties at heavy losses to raise money.Ghiyath Nakshbendi thinks Dubai went too fast and they had too much credit (信貸). Of course, Dubai was not alone in gathering debt during the easy credit years. There are worries that the crisis could be the first of more to come in other parts of the world.What can we learn from the passage? DDubai is rich in natural recources.The United Arab Emirates is the neighbour of Abu Dubai.Dubais finicial problem gets its government into hot water.The government doesnt respond to Dubais debt.Some people worry _. Chow Dubai pay its debtmany countries are involved in Dubais financial problem is just the tip of the icebergNo one could help Dubai get out of its terrible stateIn Ghiyath Nakshbendis opinion, _. BDubai is the strongest country in the United Arab EmiratesDubai developed too fast and borrowed too much moneythe Nakheel company should give up the plans for the tallest buildingborrowing money is not a good method for developing the economyFrom the passage we know _. Apeople who want to invest in emerging markets should be carefulraising money for real estate is wrongDubai will pay off all the debt after six monthsNakheel company is mainly responsible for the crisisIt can be inferred from the passage that _. BBritain has suffered great loss for DubaiDubai really didnt have good ways to pay its debt at that timeNo one would like to buy houses in DubaiDubai develops more quickly because of oilBBritish people are allowing their manners to slip (退步) as chivalry (騎士精神) becomes a dying art, researchers claim.More than eight out of ten passengers rrefuse to give up their seats on the bus and train, Jamie Wilson said. Around half of workers do not make cups of tea for colleagues while 86% people of the nation do not offer to carry bags for others, it is claimed. British people last an average of eight minutes and 22 seconds before they lose their temper, according to new research. But it is found that the Internet has increased peoples service demands and is destroying the classic British character of patience as more than ever before. According to a survey of more than 1,000 adults, the main causes of people not bothering were lack of time and stress at work.Jamie Wilson said: “Committing (投入) just half an hour a month to helping someone else can make a real difference to your life as well as theirs. As a health care provider, we encourage our staff to get active in the community supporting othersin fact we give 100 days a year to staff to spend a day helping at a charity of their choice.”Mental health expert Dr. Chtistian Jessen said: “ We all know that heling others is of benefit to them, but many people do not realize that getting active in helping others can also improve the mental and physical health. Simple activies like walking the neighbours dog or helping in the garden help to burn calories and improve general fitness, leading to a healthier, happier nation.It is known from the passage that Btitish people are_. Bconsidered as helpful and gentle nowdaysnow losing good manneers graduallyalways lose their temper to their family membersthe most patient peole throughout the worldWhat do you know about Jamie Wilson? CHe is working as an employee at a charity.He is a mental health expert aimed at helping people.He is a health care provider who encourages people to help others.The survey of peoples temper is being carried out by him.What can we learn from the passage? CMost British people like to help carry bags for others when they travel.British people are willing to give up their seats when they use public transportation.One of British peoples excuses for not helping others is that they lack time.A great number of British British workers care about their partners and often make cups of tea for them.In Dr. Christain Jessens opinion, helping others_. Dwill bring happiness and benefits to usis impossible because people lack patiencecan increase peoples responsibility in their daily lifecan improve peoples mental and physical healthBy writing this passage, the author intends to _. Bexplain why British people are becoming rude and impolitetell us a new finding about the behavior of British peopletell people the importance of mental and physical health show his attitude towards the behavior of British peopleCThe educational system in America has been much criticized in recent years. The ability of US students compared to those in other countries has been falling for many years, especially in maths and science. These poor results, combined with policies in other countries, have led many to call for more compulsory schooling through a variety of ways, including compulsory preschool, longer school days, and severely shortened summer vacations.But studies show that these calls are misguided; theere is in fact no connection between higher test marks and more hours of schooling. Parental emphasis on a childs education, however, is far greater in Asian cultures than in most American ones, which explains why Asian students consistently outscore (得分高于) American ones, within the same school system. No government command or extended school days can improve these factors.While students are succeeding less in America than in others, theyre certainly not working less. US children often have busy schedules full of extra-curricular activies and homework, with precious little free time. More numerous school days would would shorten students breaks adnd extend the school program, thus increasing students worklord, tiredness and stress levels.In addition, these measures would come at a great price. More educational hours would mean the salaries of teachers and other school staff would need to be increased for the extra work time. Such measures would also hurt the US economically. Shortening students summer vacations must also shorten family
