【3】 we now live in the US, we follow the customs and traditions of Sri Lanka. I have learned to speak 3 languages, including English. I eat a 【4】 (various) of foods and celebrate different holidays 【5】 have to do with my culture.

However, there are many disadvantages of being part of two cultures. Sometimes, speaking a language at home and speaking another language in school can be 【6】 (confuse); sometimes I have trouble 【7】 (express) my thoughts in English because they can’t understand me well; sometimes my culture does make me 【8】 (separate) from others because I feel too different. I am 【9】 (close) to my culture of Sri Lanka than that of the US. I don’t listen to English music as much as I listen to Indian music. Therefore, I feel【10】(extreme) lonely when I don’t know what song they are talking about.

【1】moved

【2】an

【3】Although

【4】variety

【5】that/which

【6】confusing

【7】expressing

【8】separated

【9】closer

【10】extremely

【解析】這篇文章主要講述了作者同時(shí)身處兩種文化——母國(guó)斯里蘭卡的文化和美國(guó)文化，作者同時(shí)生活在這兩種文化中給作者帶來(lái)的一些困擾。

【1】句意：我十歲的時(shí)候，我的父母來(lái)到了美國(guó)。描述發(fā)生在過(guò)去的事情用一般過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài)，故填moved。

【2】此處表示泛指“位于印度海岸以外的一個(gè)島”，修飾的名詞以元音音素開(kāi)頭，故填an。

【3】句意：盡管現(xiàn)在我們住在美國(guó)，我們?nèi)匀话凑?/span>Sri Lanka的風(fēng)俗和傳統(tǒng)。根據(jù)句意可知，填Although 。注意大寫(xiě)開(kāi)頭。

【4】固定搭配：a variety of“各種各樣的”，故填variety。

【5】此處holidays是先行詞，在后面的定語(yǔ)從句中作主語(yǔ)，故填that/which。

【6】句意：有時(shí)候在家里說(shuō)一種語(yǔ)言，在學(xué)校說(shuō)另一種語(yǔ)言是令人困惑的。故填confusing。

【7】固定搭配：have trouble/difficulty/problems (in) doing sth.“在做某事上有困難”。故填expressing。

【8】句意：有時(shí)候我的文化確實(shí)使我和別人隔離開(kāi)。根據(jù)賓語(yǔ)me與separate是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，故此處用過(guò)去分詞作賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)，故填separated。

【9】根據(jù)后面的than可知，此空用比較級(jí)，故填closer。

【10】副詞修飾形容詞，故填extremely。

The Importance of Accessibility Awareness

At a recent Teen Leadership of Jewish Family Services meeting, people with disabilities talked about their lives. 【1】 However, what amazed me most was the great importance of education about handicap accommodations (殘疾人便利設(shè)施).

One school-teacher who is blind, and a woman who has used a wheelchair all her life are two important members of the National Group for Disabled Persons, devoted to raising awareness about disabilities. 【2】 These include handicap parking spots, handrails, and wheelchair ramps. One big concern is the people who take advantage of aids, such as handicap parking spaces. 【3】 And the meeting focused on educating the public.

Some handicap spots have extra room next to them, marked with the “No Parking” signs. “As long as I'm not in the spot, I can take the no-parking area next to it,” some people say. However, the woman who uses a wheelchair disagrees to this. The space exists to allow someone in a wheelchair to have room to get in or out of their car. 【4】

Some walkways have handrails next to them to help those who require extra assistance. Whether it is a blind person seeking guidance or an elderly person seeking support, the rail is there for walking. Sometimes the rail is blocked, by a parked bicycle for instance, and consequently made useless. 【5】 People who are informed of the rail’s use would be less likely to mistake it for a bike rack.

Meeting some of the people who are affected by the lack of education about accommodations made me see that there is work to be done. If more people were educated about the proper uses of accommodations, there would be fewer challenges for people with physical disabilities.

A. Accommodations will vary according to the needs of the disabled.

B. As with the parking spot, this is more likely a case of lack of education.

C. They educate about all the accommodations for people with disabilities.

D. Improvement must be made so that disabled people can fully participate.

E. If there is a car in that space, the handicap parking spot is no longer useful.

F. So people without disabilities need to be educated about these accommodations.

G. I was amazed to hear about the challenges faced by people with physical disabilities.

【題目】It never occurred to anybody, not even the creators that the world would care about the complex lives, loves and sufferings of a group of attractive and witty New Yorkers. But there’s no doubt that Friends(老友記)has become more than just a successful situation comedy—it has established itself as one of the last great television phenomena of the last century. Along the way, it has made its half-dozen leading actors famous.

Looking back on the strong friendship between the group of three men and three women who frequently gather at each other’s apartments and at Greenwich Village’s Central Perk coffee house, Friends was created by television producers, David Crane and Marta Kauffman. In 1993, the pair met producer Kevin S. Bright. Then the three became partners and got a deal to produce a new comedy for Warner Brothers. What they came up with was based on Crane and Kauffman’s after-college years, when they hung out at the local coffee house and involved themselves in every aspect of each other’s lives.

It didn’t take long for viewers to make friends with Friends. The situation comedy quickly became a top ten hit. Critics loved it as well. Entertainment Weekly said the show operated like a Broadway show, with twisty plots and unique jokes. The television theme song has also been a success with the public. The song’s success helped save the television theme song. An ABC(美國(guó)廣播公司)executive was ready to order very short music intros(前奏) on his network’s shows, thinking that viewers would hit the remote control as soon as the opening started. But the success of the Friends theme song led the ABC executive to change his mind-- remote controls or not, the TV theme song would stay.

Years have gone by, but Friends remains and will remain an example of a modern US situation comedy that is both hugely entertaining television and nothing short of a genuine latter-day social phenomenon.

【1】What is stressed in the second paragraph?

A. The origin of Friends.

B. The role models of Friends.

C. The popularity of Friends.

D. The brilliance of Friends.

【2】Which of the following is TRUE about Friends?

A. It has a simple but entertaining plot.

B. It is about friendship between college students.

C. It was criticized by Entertainment Weekly.

D. It first came into being in the 1990s.

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A. Producer, Kevin S. Bright, graduated from the same college as David Crane.

B. ABC once replaced the theme song of its TV show with a short music intro.

C. The ABC executive thought highly of the theme song of Friends.

D. Marta Kauffman expected Friends to achieve great success.

【4】What might the author think of Friends?

A. Its merits outweigh its shortcomings.

B. Its success lies in the lack of good situation comedies.

C. He/she has a reserved attitude towards its success.

D. He/she shows great affection towards it.

Five Ways to Build Self-Confidence

Walk Faster.

One of the easiest ways to tell how a person feels about herself is to examine her walk. People with confidence walk quickly. They have places to go, people to see, or important work to do. Even if you aren’t in a hurry, you can increase your self-confidence by putting some energy in your step. 【1】.

【2】One of the best ways to build confidence is listening to an inspiring speech. Unluckily, chances to listen to a great speaker are few. You can fill this need by creating a personal speech. Write a 30~60-second speech that focuses on your strengths and goals then recite it aloud whenever you need a confidence push.

Sit in the Front Row.

In school, offices and some other public places people always sit at the back of the room, 【3】This is for lack of self-confidence. By deciding to sit in the front row, you can get over this meaningless fear and build your self-confidence.

Speak up.

During group discussions many people never express their opinions because they’re afraid that people will judge them for their saying something stupid. 【4】By making an effort to express your opinions at least once in every group discussion, you’ll become a better public speaker, more confident in your own thoughts.

Work out

Along the same lines as personal appearance, physical fitness has huge effect on self-confidence. 【5】By making your body fit and strong, you improve your physical appearance, refresh yourself, and learn something positive. (255words)

A. In fact most people are dealing with the same fear.

B. Walking 25% faster will make you look and feel more important.

C. In fact most people feel good after a walk.

D. If you’re out of shape, you’ll feel unattractive and less energetic.

E. Listen to an Inspiring Speech.

F. Create a Personal Speech.

G. Most people prefer that because they’re afraid of being noticed.

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

A HOLIDAY jet pilot (飛行員) said that he would land and call the police after a woman refused to stop smoking.

He warned Maureen Harkavy, “Put that cigarette out, or I’ll land the plane and have you arrested.”

Maureen, 47, was so shocked she wrote to the airline’s chairman. But his reply was even ruder.

“You seem to think you have a God-given right to pollute your neighbours’ atmosphere,” wrote John Ferriday of Paramount Airways.

(a)Said Maureen, “I only found out about it when I was checking in. I’m a nervous flyer so I lit a cigarette during the flight. A stewardess (空姐) asked me to put it out, but I said I wanted to carry on as there was no rule against smoking on the plane.” She was just finishing her cigarette when the pilot arrived.

(b) I’ve never seen such an unpleasant letter. She said, “I don’t think I’ll ever fly again.” But there was a funny side. Maureen explained, “We were offered duty-free (免稅) cigarette from the stewardess on the plane!”

(c) Mr. Ferriday went on; “Believe me, you haven’t. Especially when you travel on my planes.”

Maureen and her husband Michael were moved to Paramount flight just before they left Portugal. But they were not told of the company’ s (公司的) no smoking policy.

(d) “He was loud and rude,” said Maureen. “He said if I lit another cigarette he would land the plane at Bordeaux and hand me to the French police.”

Later, from her home in Mosely, Birmingham, Maureen wrote to the company and received the rude reply.
