Homecoming is tradition at American colleges, universities and also high schools. Schools usually hold a weekend for this purpose each fall. Homecoming weekend is a time when former students return to get together with current students and with old friends.

The weekend usually centers on a football game and a homecoming dance. Many schools also hold a parade. And some schools burn a ceremonial（仪式的）fire to show support for their

team.

The University of Illinois is said to have held the first college homecoming weekend. The planners of that celebration saw it as a chance for students and former students to get to know each other. They said it would create more loyalty to the university. And they said it would lead other universities to follow.

But some research showed that Baylor University in Texas held an event called "Home-Coming "one year earlier, in 1909. It was organized as a time to meet former students, recall old memories and "catch the Baylor spirit again". Events of that weekend included a concert, a parade and a football game.

And Northern Illinois University has records to show it held a homecoming weekend even earlier, in 1906. It was also a gathering of former students with a football game and other activities.

Today most American colleges hold a homecoming weekend. It is an important social event for both current and former students in the United States.

My father and I were very close. I loved pleasing him, and he was always proud of my success. If I won a spelling contest at school , he was on top of the world. Later in life whenever I got a promotion(提升), I'd call my father right away and he'd rush out to tell all his friends. In 1980, when I was named president of the Ford Motor Company, I didn?t know which of us was more excited.

Like many native Italians, my parents were very open with their feelings and their loves—not only at home but also in public. Most of my friends would never hug their fathers. But I hugged and kissed my dad at every opportunity—nothing could have been more natural.

He was a curious man who was always trying new things. He was the first person in Allentown to buy a motor cycle. Unluckily, my father and his motor cycle didn?t get along too well. He fell off it so often that he got rid of it just a month after buying it. As a result, he never again trusted any vehicle with less than four wheels.

Because of that motor cycle, I wasn?t allowed to have a bicycle when I was growing up.

Whenever I wanted to ride a bike, I had to borrow one from a friend. On the other hand, my father let me drive a car as soon as I turned sixteen.

44. When I won a contest at a school, my father would ______________ .

A. tell all his friends about it

B. feel most happy over it

C. get very surprised at it

D. be much more excited than I

45. I hugged and kissed my father at every opportunity, ___________________ .

A. even though I hated to do so

B. because I was told to do so by my mother

C. as I was named president of the Ford Motor Company

D. for I felt it quite natural to do so

46. My father trusted no vehicle with less than four wheels because _______________ .

A. he did not like the way I always borrowed bicycles from friends

B. he thought that cars were faster than motor cycles

C. he liked every new model made by the Ford Motor Company

D. he had trouble in riding his motor cycle

47. Which of the following shows that my father was a curious man?

A. I wasn?t allowed to have a bike when I was growing up.

B. He was the first person in the town to buy a motor cycle.

C. He was always proud of my success.

D. He was very open with his feelings and his love.

To create better traffic flow in London, money has been collected since February 2003 from people driving in busy areas. It?s a fee that cars pay for entering the city. Every car that comes into the centre of the city has to pay money for using the road. The fee started at￡5 in 2003 and has now reached ￡8. Drivers can pay the charge at any of the 10,000 pay points in the city. Those who don?t pay on time will be fined.

The fee has worked well in the past three years. It took only six months to cut central London traffic by 30%. Many Londoners were not happy with the idea at first. But soon most agreed that it worked well. “Although ￡8 is not cheap, traffic has become much better. It used to be terrible to drive in London during rush hours.”said Adrian Sandiford, a 25-year-old Londoner. “I hope the government uses the money to improve public transportation. Then many people will choose to take the bus or the subway instead,” Sandiford added.

Big cities around the world deal with traffic jams in different ways. Shanghai tries to stop people buying cars. Those who buy cars have to spend thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan to get a license plate number. In Singapore, not all the cars in the city can use the road on the same day. Cars with odd(奇数的) numbers and those with even (偶数的) numbers use the road on different days. In Washington, D.C. and other US cities, people who carpool (几个人开同一辆车) will save time during rush hours. Carpooling requires more than two people in a car. There are express lanes (快速通道) for carpoolers only. People who drive alone can?t use these lanes.

48. Money is collected from people driving in busy areas in London to _______ .

A. protect them from traffic accidents

B. punish them for breaking the traffic rules

C. make the traffic flow in this city better.

D. improve public transportation

49. The way of dealing with the traffic in London _________ .

A. was accepted by all the Londoners at first.

B. is still refused by all the Londoners now

C. is shared by many cities in the world

D. really works well

50. The last paragraph mainly tells us _______

A. the traffic conditions in the world

B. different ways of dealing with traffic jams in different cities

C. people in America use different ways to stop traffic jams

D. not all cars can use the road on the same day in Singapore

51. How many ways are suggested to cut traffic in the passage?

A. Three

B. Four

C. Five

D. Six

The top 4 lies girls hear

1.“You?ll never be good at math”

It?s generally accepted that boys are good at math and girls aren?t. The fact is that it isn?t true—at least, it doesn?t have to be.

When girls reach their teens, most of them lose their interest in math. They?re trying to be regarded as women. They want to stay away from things that are boy things, and math is still considered a boy thing. Math class is hard, but if you gave it a chance you could be great at math, especially because you are a girl.

2.“Being skinny is good, and how you diet is your business.”

Lots of web sites tell visitors that losing interest in eating is a beautiful thing. These “skinny is better” sites are lying. Losing interest in eating is a disease, not a fashion statement. It can kill you.

3.“You don?t deserve to make as much money as a guy.”

It?s said that in 2002 women who work fulltime earn about 23 percent less than men earn. Once you see real women succeeding in cool jobs, you?ll truly get that you?re worth just as much or more than any guys.

4.“Caffeine(咖啡因) will help you study better.”

Caffeniated soft drinks have long been advertised as a must when you have to work very hard. But if you want to do your body a big favor, you?d better give up caffeine altogether.

52. Why do girls lose their interest in math?

A. Because they don?t realize the importance of math

B. Because math class is too hard for girls

C. Because they aren?t interested in the things that are considered boy things.

D. Because girls are not as clever as boys.

53. The word “skinny” means ____________ .

A. pretty

B. strong

C. tall

D. slim

54. Supposing in 2002 a man earns $20,000, how much will a woman who does the same job

probably get?

A. $ 10,000

B. $ 15,000

C. $13,000

D. $25,000

55. Which of the statements is NOT true?

A. Girls sometimes can do better than boys in math.

B. Being skinny is good for girls? health.

C. Girls can earn as much money as boys do.

D. Caffeine can make people feel more excited.
