Like most English children, I learned French at school. And I had often been to France, so I was used to (习惯于) speaking a foreign language to people who didn't understand French. But when I went to America I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problem.‎ ‎ How wrong I was! The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my American friend Danny a call and tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.‎ ‎ "Yes", I said, "I want to give my friend a ring."‎ ‎ "Well, that's nice," he said, "Are you getting married? But aren't you a bit young?"‎ ‎ "Who is talking about marriage?" I replied. "I only want to give my friend a ring to tell her I've ‎ arrived. Can you tell me where there is a phone box?"‎ ‎ "Oh," he said, "There is a phone downstairs."‎ ‎ When at last we met, Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.‎ ‎ "Don't worry," he said to me. "I had so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which American use differently in meaning from British. You'll soon get used to all the funny things they say. Most of the time, British and American people understand each other!"‎ ‎ （ ）5、Where was the writer from? He was from________.‎ ‎ A. America B. France C. England D. another country ‎ （ ）6、The writer thought________in America.‎ ‎ A. he wouldn't have any language difficulties ‎ B. he would not understand the Americans ‎ C. the Americans might not understand him ‎ D. he would have difficulty at the airport ‎ （ ）7、The writer wanted to ________.‎ ‎ A. buy a ring for his friend B. make a call to his friend ‎ C. go to the telephone company D. see his friend off ‎ （ ）8、 From the passage we can see that "give somebody a ring" ________.‎ ‎ A. means the same in America as in England B. means "call somebody" to the old man ‎ C. has two different meanings D. means "be going to get married" in England C ‎ When a storm is coming, most people leave the area as quickly ad possible and head for safety. But there are a few people who will get into their cars and go straight for the center of the storm. These people are willing to risk (冒…危险) being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up.‎ ‎ "Storm chasing (追逐) " is becoming an increasingly popular hobby (喜好), especially in the Midwest of the United States, where there are frequent storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by checking the Internet for the latest weather reports, and then drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where he storm will be and wits for it to develop. ‎ ‎ Although anyone can do it, storm chasing is extremely dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season. ‎ ‎ Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement. "Storm chasing is 95% driving," says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. "Sometimes you can sit around for hours waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers." ‎ ‎ However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. "When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting sight you will ever see in your life," says Jasper Morley."Every storm is an example of the power of nature, It is the greatest show on Earth."‎ ‎（ ）9、 For storm chasing, the first thing storm chasers do is to _____.‎ A. head straight for the center of the storm ‎ B. get into the car for safety ‎ C. wait patiently for the storm to develop ‎ D. collect information about a coming storm ‎（ ）10、Beginners of storm chasing are advised _____.‎ A. not to drive in a heavy rain ‎ B. to do it in an organized way ‎ C. not to get too close to a storm ‎ D. to spend more time on it in summer ‎（ ）11、 What can we learn from the text?‎ A. Sometimes storm chasers get nothing but disappointment ‎ B. Many storm chasers get killed in the storms. ‎ C. Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world/ ‎ D. Storm chasing is only fit for young people ‎ D When Peng Liyuan stepped off the plane in Moscow, the whole world wanted to know who dressed the elegant first lady. The reporter released the secret—Ma Ke.‎ Peng Liyuan has been wearing Ma Ke’s designs for more than a decade, a fact that was only highlighted recently when she was on her first state visit accompanying her husband President Xi Jinping. The elegant and attractive Peng, formerly a popular singer, has been compared with the US’ first lady Michelle Obama and France’s Carla BruniSarkozy, since stepping off the airplane in Moscow on March 22. Suddenly, everyone was curious to know more about the first lady’s wardrobe.‎ Even so, Ma prefers a lowkey approach. “If you eat a tasty egg why would you want to see the hen？” she says of all the media attention.‎ Ma’s relationship with Peng began 10 years ago after a concert in Guangzhou when a reporter told Peng she knew the designer behind the label Exception de Mixmind. Peng asked for an introduction because she was a fan of Ma’s designs and had been wearing them for years.‎ The two naturally became friends. Ma says: “The painting reflects the painter, and clothes reflect both the designer and the wearer. Someone desires fame and wealth, or love and sympathy; what you have in your heart is reflected in the design. Those who don’t share my philosophy won’t buy my clothes. Peng is a caring person, devoted to charity and environmental protection, which is exactly what I’m doing now.”‎ However, regardless of the brand, Peng’s support of Chinese labels has surprised millions of Chinese who favor foreign fashion brands.‎ ‎“Instead she presented a vision of Chinese fashion, desiring to bring Chinese designers to the world stage, ” says a western designer.‎ The first lady’s doublebreasted coat and her black leather handbag aren’t available at any of Exception’s shops, though Exception’s physical stores do have seen a rising number of visitors.‎ ‎（ ）12.The passage mainly discusses________.‎ A. the designer of the first lady Peng Liyuan’s dress, Ma Ke B. the friendship between Peng Liyuan and her designer C. Peng Liyuan’s clothes on her first state visit D. the reactions to Peng Liyuan’s first visit to Moscow ‎（ ）13. In the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 Ma Ke mentioned “an egg and ‎ the hen” to show________.‎ A. it is hard to explain “Which came first，the egg or the hen？”‎ B. paying such great attention to her was unnecessary C. the outcome was more important than the process D. her dissatisfaction with the media attention on her dress ‎（ ）14. What can be inferred from the passage?‎ A. First ladies compete with each other whenever they are together.‎ B. Peng’s suits can be bought in Ma Ke’s clothes stores.‎ C. Ma Ke offered to design the first lady’s clothes through her friends.‎ D. Peng had liked Ma’s designs long before she got to know her in the flesh.‎ ‎（ ）15.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?‎ A. Peng wears the dress designed by a Chinese designer probably to support Chinese brands.‎ B. Many citizens found Peng Liyuan’s choice quite unexpected.‎ C. Black leather handbags like Peng’s are widely sold in bag stores in big cities.‎ D. After Peng Liyuan’s visit to Moscow Ma Ke’s clothes became more popular.‎ 第二节 ‎：七选五 （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。选项中两项为多余选项。‎ How to Survive High School High school can be a terrible phase if you get it all wrong.
