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 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 cannot 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!‎ ‎21. The writer of this passage must be ______.‎ A. an American B. a Chinese C. a professor D. a student ‎22. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.‎ A. warmly welcomed at the airport B. offered a ride to his home C. treated hospitably at his home D. treated to dinner in a restaurant ‎23. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”. ‎ A. Friendships between Chinese ‎ B. Friendships between Americans C. Americans’ hospitality ‎ D. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendships B Londoners are great readers. They read and buy vast numbers of newspapers and magazines and of books – especially paperbacks, which are still comparatively cheap in spite of ever-increasing rises in the costs of printing. They still continue to buy “proper” books, too, printed on good paper and bound(装订) between hard covers.‎ There are many streets in London containing shops which specialize in book–selling. Perhaps the best known of these is Charring Cross Road in the very heart of London. Here bookshops of all sorts and sizes are to be found, from the celebrated one which boasts of (自夸) being “the biggest bookshop in the world” to the tiny, dusty little places which seem to have been left over from Dickens’ time. Some of these shops stock, or will obtain, any kind of books, but many of them specialize in second-hand books, in art books, in foreign books, in books on philosophy, politics or any other of the countless subjects about which books may be written. One shop in this area specializes only in books about ballet!‎ Although it may be the most convenient place for Londoners to buy books, Charring Cross Road is not the cheapest. For the really cheap second-hand books, the collectors must venture off the beaten track, to Farringdon Road, for example, in the East Central district of London. Here there is nothing so impressive as bookshops. The booksellers come along each morning and pour out their sacks of books onto small handcarts. And the collectors, some professionals and some amateurs, have been waiting for them. In places like this they can still, occasionally, pick up for a few pence an old one that may be worth many pounds.‎ ‎24. “Londoners are great readers.” means that _________.‎ A. Londoners are great because they read a lot ‎ B. There are a great number of readers in ‎London C. Londoners are readers who read only great books ‎ D. Londoners read a lot ‎25. According to this passage, Charring Cross Road _________.‎ A. is in the suburbs of London ‎ B. is famous for its bookshops C. contains various kinds of shops ‎ D. is the busiest street in ‎London ‎26. In this passage, what does the underlined part “venture off the beaten track” mean?‎ A. move away from a busy street. ‎ B. buy books in a most busy street. ‎ C. waste time looking for books. ‎ D. take a risk of losing one’s life.‎ ‎27. On Farringdon Road, _________.‎ A. you can find fine books for the latest books B. there are only small bookshops for the secondhand books C. you can see booksellers selling books on handcarts D. the same books as the ones in the bookshops of Charring Cross Road are sold ‎ C ‎“When your mother scolds you, you can look elsewhere and think about other things. Just ignore her words. But remember: such a tough attitude cannot be used often.” These words are from a series of cartoons which outline skills for children to fight against their mothers. The images have created heated debate among Chinese netizens（网民）.‎ Regarded as “a book for children aged 6 to 12 who are always scolded by their parents”, the cartoons, drawn by two 10-year-old Beijing girls, list over 20 skills which children can use to deal with their mothers’ anger such as crying, pretending to be ashamed, fleeing into the toilet and pleasing her afterwards. Each skill is described with vivid pictures and humorous notes. The creativity of the young girls has amazed netizens, the Yangtse Evening Post reported on Thursday.‎ According to one of the girls’ mothers, her daughter once received a poor mark in an exam, and the mother blamed her and compared her performance with another classmate. The daughter’s feelings led to her creating the cartoons. The girl’s father, who first posted the pictures on his Sohu Microblog on Monday, said he hopes parents pay close attention to the pictures, allow children to feel free to develop their own characteristics and try not to criticize them so often.‎ ‎ “The cartoons, although an individual case, reflect a modern phenomenon and some of the problems within Chinese family education,” said Yu Qinfang, an expert on family education. According to a survey of 104 children and their parents, Yu discovered that as many as 51.9 percent of primary school students hate being urged to do things by their mothers.“Not giving children enough time and hurrying them to do things seems to be a very tiny detail within family life, but it is potentially a huge problem which can easily be ignored by parents. A mother’s blame may lead to negative feelings within her child’s heart,” Yu said. “Parents should learn to blame less and be more patient.”‎ ‎28.What do we know about the cartoon book according to the passage?‎ A. It is finished by children aged 6 to 12.‎ B. It tells us how to control mothers’ feelings.‎ C. It is intended for primary school teachers.‎ D. It includes a number of vivid pictures and humorous notes.‎ ‎29. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A. Yu Qinfang found that primary school pupils disliked being forced to do things. ‎ B. The father posted the cartoons on his microblog to show off his daughter’s cleverness.‎ C. Parents are advised to speak highly of their children frequently.‎ D. How to blame children needs parents’ further study of cartoons.‎ ‎30. Where would you probably find this passage?‎ A. An advertisement. B. A textbook. ‎ C. A newspaper. D. A novel.‎ 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,选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon.

She called me 48 I left for Israel to tell me that she loved me and that she would always be with me. I went to Israel and had the time of my life. When I returned, my parents 49 me up. I told them I couldn't wait to tell Aunt Estelle about my journey. They became 50 and I knew before they said the words that she had died. Aunt Estelle's unselfishness was her greatest 51 . The gold bracelet she gave me for my sixteenth birthday was the one that I had always admired on her. Each time I look at it I am 52 of an even greater gift from my aunt, the gift of her 53 .
