18．The evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families．But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents，which is the opposite of the popularly-held image of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels．
An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past．"We were surprised by just how positive today's young people seem to be about their families，"said one member of the research team．"They're expected to be rebellious and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds； they want a car and material goods，and they worry about whether school is serving them well．There's more negotiation and discussion between parents and children，and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process．They don't want to rock the boat．"
So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30years ago to treat their children as friends．"My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me，"says 17yearold Daniel Lazall．"I always tell them when I'm going out clubbing．As long as they know what I'm doing，they're fine with it．"Susan Crome，who is now 21，agrees．"Looking back on the last 10years，there was a lot of what you could call negotiation．For example，as long as I'd done all my homework，I could go out on a Saturday night．But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that．"
Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected．It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not rooted in real facts．A researcher comments，"Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings．But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really happened during the 1960s when everyone rebelled．The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over．"

60．The underlined phrase"rock the boat"meansB．
A．share family responsibility      B．cause trouble in their families
C．go boating with their family     D．make family decisions
61．According to the writer，teenage rebellionA．
A．may be a false belief      B．is common nowadays
C．existed only in the 1960s   D．resulted from changes in families
62．What is the passage mainly about？C
A．Negotiation in family      B．Education in family
C．Harmony in family        D．Teenage trouble in family．

9．China's economy grows，salaries rise； and more city residents feel the need to hit the road in what has become a symbol of individuality and freedom-a car．China has a growing love affair with the car．This is clear at the Beijing Asian Games Village Automobile Exchange，where more and more people come to look and，increasingly，to buy．
The Asian Games Village Automobile Exchange is the biggest car dealership in Beijing．General manager Guo Yong says the business sells more than 2，000cars each week．Guo says it is much easier for Chinese consumers to buy a car now．Also，the emergence of less expensive domestic brands like Chery and BYD means more Chinese can afford cars．
For decades，most Chinese city residents have got about by bicycle or public buses and trains．Now，in many areas，the number of new cars is growing faster than the road system，leaving city streets jammed with traffic．

World Bank transportation specialist Shomik Mendhiratta says a car is something people in any society would be eager to own．"Getting a car makes people feel like they have arrived in the middle class．"Mendhiratta said．"It has got a huge status associated with it．It's a fantastic thing to have，if you have never had a car．A car gives you a mobility that's unbelievable．"

21．Which of the following doesn't a car represent，according to the passage？D
A．Status．B．Freedom．C．Individuality．D．Opportunity．
22．What contributes to the affordability of cars，according to the passage？D
A．Factories produce more cars．
B．The prices of imported cars are lower．
C．There are more foreign car factories．
D．Some domestic cars are not so expensive．
23．What's the problem caused by the growth of new cars？B
A．It makes people less healthy．
B．It makes city streets jammed with traffic．
C．It makes people often go to work late．
D．It makes people belong to the middle class．

6．It was dangerously cold．A few drivers slipping and sliding off the road and back on again had cut deep ruts（車轍）in the mud．And the ruts became frozen solid．The drum of our truck's aging engine worried us．
Trees and bushes heavy with snow bent to form an icy tunnel．We inched along the scary route as Howard grasped the steering wheel（方向盤(pán)）tightly，trying to keep the truck in the ruts．We were now riding through a nightmare with no going back．I kept praying the truck would not quit．
However，the engine's coughing grew worse．We came to a bumping stop．Hot tears ran down my face．We noticed a small house off in the distance．"I will go for help．"Howard's words ruined my common sense and panic took over．We would take the children-we would walk to that house together!
But the snow was deep，and our two children，asleep in the cab，were too heavy to carry．My husband convinced me to let him go alone．If no one was home or they didn't answer the door，he would come back and we'd try to hike out to a main road．For now，it was safer in the truck．I wish I could say I have faith，but when he walked away，I was mad at the world．
It seemed as if hours had passed before I heard a familiar voice and a kind laugh of another man as they approached in the snow．The older fellow invited us to go up to the house where his wife was waiting．Two wide-awake kids moved across the seat，ready for adventure．Their voices and laughter carried in the cold night air．When we finally got close，a cheerful woman opened the door．Warm air and the smell of hot buttered popcorn and chocolate drew us in．
Relieved，my prayers were heard!
 
21．What made the author worried after Howard left the truck？B
A．Her being locked in the truck．
B．Howard's failure to get the help．
C．Children's fear in the freezing night．
D．The truck's sudden move in the frozen mud．
22．What can we learn about the older couple from Paragraph 5？A
A．They were willing to offer help．
B．They loved making friends with children．
C．They enjoyed cooking in cold winter nights．
D．They came across the Howards on the way home．
23．What would be the best title of the passage？D
