Mark Twain is someone Americans are taught to love. Older relatives, English teachers and the media always praise (表揚) him. But when you actually take the time to read The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, you find that his work is more wonderful than you could ever imagine.
The novel describes a young boy named Tom Sawyer growing up in a small town along the Mississippi River. He explores the countryside on a riverboat with his friends, falls in love with girls, starts secret clubs and searches for treasure. Twain’s idea of childhood is magical – a time of imagination, wonder and, of course, adventure.
More importantly, through the eyes of Tom Sawyer, Twain cleverly makes fun of US culture. For example, Tom hates going to church, and Twain uses scenes of Tom there to mock religion and its old traditions.
Twain’s writing is full of these kinds of critical (批判的) points about culture and politics. That’s why he is so loved in the US – he wasn’t afraid to state his opinions, and he did so clearly.
He also believed strongly in women’s right to vote in elections and gave a famous speech on the subject, called “Votes for Women”, in 1901.
“Tom was a great hero once more – the pet of the old, the envy of the young,” Twain writes in Tom Sawyer. But he could just as well be describing himself.

小題1:According to the writer, after reading The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, you are likely to think__________.
A．it’s not worth all the praise
B．it’s as wonderful as you imagined
C．it’s better to read it with teachers
D．it’s even better than you imagined
小題2:What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A．A brief description of the novel.
B．Where Twain’s idea of childhood comes from.
C．How naughty and adventurous Tom Sawyer is.
D．What makes Tom Sawyer’s adventures so wonderful.
小題3:What does the underlined word “mock” mean?
A．make changes to B．make fun of
C．give reasons for D．give examples of
小題4:Why is Twain so loved in the US according to the article?

B．He wrote bad things about US wars abroad.
C．He criticized American culture and society clearly and cleverly.

  In England, “Bank holiday” are Easter Monday, May Day, the Spring Bank Holidays (the last Monday in May), the Summer Bank Holiday (the last Monday in August), Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day. During the Bank Holiday, all the banks are closed.
The August Bank Holiday is probably the most popular one of the year, because it comes at a time when children are not at school. Many people try to make this long weekend, and go away to the seaside or the country. The result is that anyone who can manage to take a holiday at another time. Some people advised not to take a holiday at this time because the roads get crowded with traffic.
In recent years, there have been a lot of suggestions having another Bank Holiday—midway(中間)between August and Christmas, but nothing has yet been done, October would be a good month, as the weather is often very pleasant, and England has fewer Bank Holidays than most European countries, so many people would welcome another one or two.
小題1: How many Bank holidays are there mentioned(提到)in the passage?
小題2:. Are the banks open or closed during the Bank Holidays?
小題3:. Why is August Bank Holiday probably the most popular one of the year?
小題4:. What is the time people suggest for another Bank Holiday?
小題5:. Do you think October would be a good month for Bank Holiday?
