二、阅读理解

Passage 1

Five years ago, David S mith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict,” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes —khaki pants and a sports shirt —to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “I’m working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”

More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States, the changes from formal to casual office wear have been slow. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their workers to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for workers has really become an everyday thing,” said business adviser Maisly Jones.

Why have so many companies started allowing their workers to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it's easier for a company to attract new workers if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people don't want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it's hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study made by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that casual dress has a side effect on work. Supporters of casual office wear also say that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”

1. David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict” because ______________.

A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirt

B. he couldn't stand a clean appearance

C. he didn’t want to spend much money on clothes

D. he wanted his clothes to look tidy and clean all the time

2. David Smith wears casual clothes now, because ______________.

A. they make him feel at ease when working

B. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes

C. he looks handsome in casual clothes

D. he no longer works for any company

3. According to this passage, which of the following is FALSE?

A. Many workers don’t like a conservative dress code.

B. Comfortable clothes make workers more productive.

C. A casual clothes code is welcomed by young workers.

D. All the employers in the U.S. are for casual office wear.

4. According to this passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. Company workers started to dress down about twenty years ago.

B. Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s.

C. “Dress-down Friday” was first given as a favor from employers.

D. Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people.

5. In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT ______________.

A. saving worker’s money

B. making workers more attractive

C. improving worker’s feeling

D. making workers happier

Passage 2

Although the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food than the present population needs, its people are by now almost entirely an urban society. Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry, and most of the rest live in or around towns，small and large. Here the traditional picture is changing: every small town may still be very like other small towns，and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country, but most Americans do not live in small towns any more. Half the population now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas (1arge cities with their suburbs of more than a million people each —a larger proportion than in Germany or England，let alone France). The statistics of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each day. As the rush to live out of town continues, rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses, so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb. But more and more the typical American lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.

1. If now America has 250 million people, how many of them are engaged in agriculture and forestry?

A. About 25 million.

B. More than 25 million.

C. Less than 25 million.

D. Less than 225 million.

2. Which of the following four countries has the smallest proportion of people living in metropolitan areas?

A. United States.

B. Germany.

C. France.

D. England.

3. What's the meaning of the word "metropolitan" in the middle of the passage?

A. Of a large city with its suburbs.

B. Of small and large towns.

C. Of urban areas．

D. Of rural areas．

4. According to the passage, what can we learn about small towns in the United States?

A. Most small towns become gradually crowded.

B. Small towns are still similar to each other.

C. As the traditional picture is changing, towns are different.

D. Small towns are turning into large cities.

5. Why is it hard to say when a piece of country becomes a suburb?

A. Because they are the same.

B. Because the rush takes place too quickly.

C. Because the process is gradual.

D. Because more and more Americans live in metropolitan.

passage3

People in the United States honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June.

Mother’s Day was proclaimed a day for national observance by President Woodrow Wilson in 1915. Ann Jarvis from Grafton, West Virginia, had started the idea to have a day to honor mothers. She was the one who chose the second Sunday in May and also began the custom of wearing a carnation. In 1909, Mrs. Dodd from Spokane, Washington, thought of the idea of a day to honor fathers. She wanted to honor her own father, William Smart. After her mother died, he had the responsibility of raising a family of five sons and a daughter. In 1910, the first Father’s Day was observed in Spokane. Senator Margaret Chase Smith helped to established Father’s Day as a national commemorative day, in 1972.

These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care.

These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead．Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days, families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.

1. According to the passage, which of the following about the second Sunday in May is not true?

A. It is a day to show love to mothers.

B. It is a day to wear carnations.

C. It is a day for people to visit the cemetery.

2. Choose the right time order of the following events.

a. The first Father’s Day was observed.

b. Mother’s Day was proclaimed a day for national observance.

c. Father’s Day became a day for national observance.

d. The idea of honoring fathers was bought up.

passage4

A poor young artist came to the gate of the subway station. He put his hat on the ground and took out a large piece of paper and laid it on the ground. Then he adjusted the violin and began playing.

Before long, the young violinist was surrounded with people, who were all attracted by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to claim it soon.”

After about half an hour, a middle-aged man ran there in a hurry and rushed through the crowd to the violinist and grabbed his shoulders and said, “Yes, it’s you. You did come here. I knew that you’re an honest man and would certainly come here.”

The story turned out to be this :George Sang bought a lottery ticket a few days ago. The awards opened yesterday and he won a prize of $500,000. So he felt very happy and he took out 50 dollars for the wonderful music played by the young man. However the lottery ticket was also thrown in. Later someone asked the violinist: “At that time you needed to pay the tuition fee and had to play the violin every day to make the money. Then why didn’t you take the lottery ticket for yourself?”

The violinist said, “Although I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty I won’t be happy forever.”

Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us. If we bear ourselves in a deceptive and dishonest way, we may succeed temporarily. However, from the long-term view, we will be a loser. Such people are just like the water on the mountain. It stands high above the masses at the beginning, but gradually it comes down inch by inch and loses the chance of going up.

1. Which of the following statements about George is wrong?

A. He threw the lottery in the violinist’s hat deliberately.

B. He intended to give the violinist $50.

C. He finall y got his lottery back because of the violinist’s honesty.

2. Why were the violinist surrounded with a lot of people?

A. He was playing the violin in the street.

B. He was begging money in public.

C. He has written something strange on paper in front of him.

D. He was waiting for someone who has lost money.

3. Why did the violinist return the lottery to George?

A. He was wealthy and did not need the money.

B. He hoped to get some reward from George.

C. He was honest and wanted to be happy.

D. He was forced to give the money back to George by the police.

4. What does the phrase “bear oneself” mean in paragraph 7?

A. enjoy oneself

B. behave oneself

C. cheat oneself

D. adjust oneself.

5. What kind of people can be compared to the water on the mountain?

A. intelligent people

B. cunning people

C. political people

D. dishonest people

passage5

China has changed dramatically in recent years, including the changing

of family structure. In traditional Chinese society, the elderly used to

live with one of their children. But nowadays, more and more young adults

are moving out, leaving their elderly parents alone. Many young couples

now live with their parents not for family tradition, but rather because

they cannot afford to buy a house or rent an apartment. Experts say

family-based care is now impractical because most middle-aged children

have little time to take care of their parents. So one of the things the

elderly have to face nowadays is how to arrange their late years when their

families can't take care of them.

A nationwide survey found that about 23 percent of China's seniors over

the age of 65 live by themselves. Another survey conducted in Beijing

showed that less than 50 percent of elderly women live with their children.

Since more and more elderly have to live alone, homes for the elderly are

far from being enough to meet the needs of the elderly.

1. China has changed a lot recently, but the family structure stays the

same.

A. T

B. F

2. The old people used to live with their child traditionally.

passage6

What comes to mind when we speak of cultural exports from China to the

United States? Bruce Lee, the giant panda, or kung fu?

Without a doubt, these cultural symbols are successful exports of Chinese

culture, but another form of Chinese culture widely known in the US is

Chinese cuisine. Many types of local snacks, all deeply loved in China,

are taking over the streets of America. Some were modified to suit to

Americans' tastes, while others retain the traditional taste of China.

Here are just some of them.

Pai huang gua (smashed cucumbers)

In a report titled Smashed cucumber salad takes Manhattan, The New York

Times praised the method of smashing cucumbers in making salads as a

completely new way to eat a cucumber.

Rou jia mo (Chinese hamburger)

Rou jia mo, which translates as "meat placed between bun", has a similar

recipe to hamburgers, consisting of chopped meat inside a bun.

Egg Rolls

The term egg roll often refers to a variation of fried spring rolls in

China, only the wrap is thicker, the entire form bigger, and it doesn't

have much to do with eggs. Egg rolls are often served as appetizers in

the US, just as spring rolls are in China.

1. Chinese cuisine is one form of the cultural exports from China to the

United States.

A. T

B. F

passage7

In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help

you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes

you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you

have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I

know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability.

A good friend, above all else, tries to understand how another person is

feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others.

He puts himself in the other person’s place, and he tries to think of

ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.

At the same time, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults

in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.

Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good

friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can

be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to

help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.

When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know

passage8

People born in the summer are more likely to be healthy than those who

arrive during other times of the year, new research suggests. The

phenomenon could be caused by mothers getting more sun in pregnancy —

and passing on higher quantities of vitamin D to their unborn infant. A

study of almost half a million British adults found babies born in June,

July, and August were heavier at birth and taller as adults.

For the first time the research also revealed girls born in the summer

started puberty later — an indication of better health in adult life.

Early puberty in girls has been linked with a higher risk of diabetes,

heart disease or breast cancer.

Previous research has shown children born between June and October are

likely to be slightly taller and have bigger bones than winter-born

children —believed to be related to vitamin D exposure during pregnancy.

Babies born in autumn and winter are more likely to develop food allergies

— with sunlight exposure during pregnancy and vitamin D levels also

thought to play a role in this. But being born in summer can have drawbacks

- such as an increased risk of short-sightedness.

1. According to the new research, babies born in summer are more likely

to be healthy.

A. T

B. F

2. Late puberty in girls has been related to an increased risk of diabetes,

heart disease or breast cancer.

A. T

3. Vitamin D exposure during pregnancy is believed to be connected with

the height of the babies.

Dear Mike,

I got a letter from you that you want to invite me to your graduation ceremony this weekend，but I'm sorry about that I couldn't attend it for some reason.

To tell the truth, my mum was ill so I have to look after her to make her cure. She is too old to look after herself .I hope you can forgive this. I'm so glad to be a teacher of you. I am so proud of you and your achievement. I'm here to celebrate your graduation. At last, best wishes for your graduation ceremony and you .Hope the graduation ceremony a big success. Yours

passage3

Instructions: 请你以假期旅行为题材写一篇记叙文，内容包含游览的时间、地点以及旅行过程中发生的难忘经历。

In my winter vacation, I was pleased to pay a visit with my parents to Beijing, the capital city of China. I have to say that Beijing is very cold for it kept snowing all the time, but we enjoyed ourselves very much. First of all, we visited the Great Wall at Badaling, which made me sigh that the Chinese people are so great. Besides, we visited the Tian'anmen Square and watched the flag raising ceremony. And we have visited many other places like the Great Hall of the People and so on. After a week of visit, we went back home. I thought that the trip was very interesting and unforgettable.
