第二節(jié)閱讀下面短文,回答文章后面的5個(gè)問(wèn)題。
(E)
Most people agree that the direct, assertive(過(guò)分自信的) American personality is a virtue, but it sometimes surprises foreigners. In many cultures, respect for older people or those in positions of authority keeps others from expressing their true feelings. But in the US children often argue with their parents, students may disagree with their teachers, and citizens may express opposition to the actions of government. If the soup has a fly in it or the meat is too tough to chew, the diner can complain to the waiter, if the boss makes a mistake, an employee will politely point it out.
Some  straight talks about the American personality must include the admission that Americans have their faults. The extremely competitive nature of Americans is probably their worst fault. Of course, competition isn’t always bad. As a matter of fact, it promotes excellence by encouraging individuals and business to try to do their best. But the desire to get ahead of others sometimes causes people to do things that are unkind and even dishonest. Also, Americans admire what is practical, fast, efficient, and fresh. Sometimes they fail to understand and appreciate practices that have greater respect for more traditional, leisurely ways of doing things. On the other hand, people from other cultures may dislike the practical, challenging American lifestyle.
Despite culture differences, most foreigners give Americans credit for their virtues. Americans are generally viewed as friendly, adaptable, energetic, and kindhearted. Most newcomers to the US like Americans, and the feeling is usually mutual.
Perhaps the greatest American virtue is a deep interest in new ideas and new people. In a nation of immigrants, the foreigner does not remain an outsider for long.
61.What does the passage mainly talk about? (No more than 5 words) 
____________________________________________
62.According to the passage, why do people outside America tend to avoid expressing their true feelings when they see their parents or teachers make a mistake? (No more than 15 words)
____________________________________________
63.Why is extremely competitive nature considered as one of the American faults?( No more than 20 words)
____________________________________________
64.What does the writer mean by saying “most foreigners give Americans credit for their virtues”? (No more than 10 words)
____________________________________________
65.Please explain the underlined word “immigrant” in English. (No more than 10 words) _____________________________________________

D
Mayor Boris Johnson Monday outlined plans to make London “the cleanest, greenest city on Earth” by the 2012 Olympics and called for commitments from other world cities at a climate change conference. Leaders of the world’s 40 largest cities are meeting in Seoul this week for a summit on combating global warming –the third to be held since 2005.
“What we should do in Seoul is that we will stop the endless addiction of mankind to the internal combustion engine (內(nèi)燃機(jī)),” said Johnson. He said at a press conference the world’s cities consume 75 percent of the world’s energy and produce 80 percent of the emissions which cause climate change. “The problem of our planet is an urban problem,” Johnson said.
He said the British capital wants to use the Olympics” to drive the greeting and the improvement of our city and noted that London is committed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 60 percent by 2025.
Johnson said the key measure was being taken to solve problems relating to housing and commercial buildings, which accounted for 70 percent of carbon dioxide emissions in London. This involved retrofitting (翻新) ---installing lagging – in large numbers of public buildings.
Johnson proclaimed himself a “passionate cyclist” and said he would push ahead with cycle superhighways around London.
London’s air quality problem, he said, was caused by vehicle emissions from 8,300 worn and used diesel (柴油buses, which could be replaced by low-carbon vehicle. In addition, there were also 32,000 taxis running on diesel fuel, which could be replaced by electric vehicle.
Johnson said there would be a few programs in the next few years to produce a “cleaner, greener” bus for the city. “The age of the diesel bus has got to be over in London.”
68. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to this passage?
London’s air quality will be improved in the near future.
The used buses running on diesel will be replaced by electric vehicles.
London promises to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 60 percent by 2025.
Something has been done to solve the problem of carbon dioxide emissions.
69What does the underlined word mean in the first paragraph?
A. resisting     B. supporting   C. agreeing        D. solving
70. The topic of the meeting in Seoul might be _____.
A. climate change                        B. global warming
C. London Olympics in 2012               D. green environment
71. If the passage was continually written, the following might be ______.
A. measures to end the age of the diesel bus
B. measures to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in London
C. measures to solve housing and commercial items
D. measures to replace the old and used vehicles

第二部分閱讀理解(共20小題,每小題2分,滿(mǎn)分40分)
A
It was graduation day at Etihad Training Academy, where the national airline of the United Arab Emirates holds a seven-week training course for new flight attendants.
Despite her obvious pride, Ms. Fathi, a 22-year-old from Egypt, was amazed to find herself here. “I never in my life thought I’d work abroad,” said Ms. Fathi, who was a university student in Cairo when she began noticing newspaper advertisements employing young Egyptians to work at airlines based in the Persian Gulf.
A decade ago, unmarried Arab women like Ms. Fathi, working outside their home countries, were rare. But just as young men from poor Arab nations poured into the oil-rich Persian Gulf states for jobs, more young women are doing so.
Flight attendants have become the public face of the new mobility for some young Arab women, just as they were the face of new freedoms for women in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s. They have become a subject of social anxiety and fascination in much the same way. 
For many families, allowing a daughter to work may call her virtue into question. Yet this culture is changing, said Musa Shteiwi, a sociologist at Jordan University in Amman. “We’re noticing more and more single women going to the gulf these days,” he said. “It’s still not exactly common, but over the last four or five years it’s become quite an observable phenomenon.”
Many of the young Arab women working in the Persian Gulf take delight in their status as pioneers, role models for their friends and younger female relatives. Young women brought up in a culture that highly values community, have learned to see themselves as individuals. The experience of living independently and working hard for high salaries has forever changed their beliefs about themselves, though it can also lead to a painful sense of separation from their home countries and their families.
—From New York Times (December 22, 2008)
56. It can be inferred from the passage that young Arab women _________.
A. go to work abroad after American women’s example
B. didn’t start to work abroad until the late 20th century
C. are commonly used to living and working separately
D. expect to take the same family responsibilities as men
57. According to the passage, the Arab women flight attendants can be described as _________.
A. proud, homesick or independent                 B. honest, outstanding or optimistic  
C. mature, enthusiastic or energetic                 D. painful, desperate or conservative
58. How do the public respond to young Arab women’s new mobility?
A. The public think highly of it.            B. The public care very little about it.
C. The public show both interest and anxiety.   D. The public are strongly against it.
59. The author intends to tell the readers that __________.
A. Arab women can hardly find any work
B. flight attendants are badly needed in the gulf
C. flight attendants lead quite a different life
D. young Arab women’s values are changing

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C、D)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
Mr. Brozina is a single father and an elementary school librarian who reads aloud for a living. When his daughter, Kristen, hit fourth grade, he proposed The Streak: to see if they could read together for 100 straight bedtimes without missing once.
When The Streak reached 100, they celebrated with a pancake breakfast, and Kristen whispered, "I think we should try for 1,000 nights."
Mr. Brozina was delighted, but what he was thinking was, a thousand nights?! "I thought, we'll never do it," he recalled. "And then we got to 1,000, and we said, 'How can we stop?' "
For 3,218 nights (and some mornings, if Mr. Brozina was coming home too late to read). The Streak went on. It progressed from picture books to middle-school classics to Harry Potter, Agatha Christie, Dickens and Shakespeare, continuing on, until Kristen's first day of college.
In those nine-plus years, they survived many close calls. When Kristen was still in elementary school, her father went to Washington. "The phone rang at 10:45 at the hotel and it was Kristen," Mr. Brozina recalled. "She said, 'Dad, we forgot The Streak!' Fortunately, I always traveled with several books and we read right then and there."
This spring, Kristen graduated from Rowan' University. She has performed as you'd expect for a product of The Streak, an English major with a 3.94 average. She also won two national writing contests, was an editor of the humor arid literary publications and won the annual English department award.

John was waiting for the girl whose heart he knew,but whose face he didn’t,the girl with the rose.Thirteen months ago,in a Florida library he took a book off the shell and found himself interested in the notes in the margin(頁(yè)邊).The soft handwriting showed a thoughtful soul and insightful(有洞察力的)mind.
In front of the book,he discovered the name,Miss Hollis Maynell. With time and effort he got her address.He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to keep in touch.

Life is often compared to a diary. As Barrie said: We begin by resolving to write one thing and end by writing something very different. However, to be more exact, life is much more like a growing plant. Whether we like it or not, it is the stem (葉柄) that holds the plant;  71 .
Some people say, “Let by-gones be by-gones.” This is especially the case for misanthropes (厭惡與人交往的人) who hate to recall their past events.  72 ; they hate everything—perhaps themselves, too. In times of loneliness, instead of enriching their minds by enjoying their happy memories, they blame this world for being cold. Yet we may have something very funny in the past. Why not warm up your coldness by recalling them?
Some time ago, I went boating with my two friends. Having rented a sampan, we set out. The weather was dull and unfavorable, and the wind, singing in our ears, set off the waves which uplifted the boat and let it go.  73 . Without a moment’s hesitation I laid down the oars to catch it, but I failed. I tried again and it ran away. When the third time my two friends came to my help, the boat was out of balance with us all on one side. The boat turned over. The jellyfish which we were so anxious to catch a few minutes ago now floated towards us. But this time we tried our best to get away from it and landed on the bottom of the boat.  74 . Though drunk with water I felt very happy as that was the first adventure in my life, and I really enjoyed it.
I always like to sit quietly in one corner of my room, recalling past events, and laughing secretly to myself. Happy memories can delight you when you are moody and can encourage you when you are in difficulties.  75 .
A.They hate their fellow men
B.Encouraging one’s minds sometimes brings more trouble
C.Loneliness and coldness offers some people bad memories of the past
D.besides, it is our past
E. Yes, too much in it can certainly cause harm
F. Suddenly I saw a jellyfish floating on the surface
G. Fortunately, my two friends, experts in boating, managed to turn it back
