閱讀短文，并按照題目要求用英語回答問題。

The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before. But just as in face-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when online.

The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes. For anything you’re about to send, ask yourself “Would I say this to the person’s face？”If the answer is “No”, rewrite and reread. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.

If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct(本能反應(yīng)) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. You should either ignore that person, or use your chat software to block their messages. If it was caused by disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.

If you do decide to tell someone in the chat room about a mistake, point it out politely. At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those who you have offended.

It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex, and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.

56．What’s the main idea of the passage？（Please answer within 10 words）

57．Why should we ask ourselves “Would I say this to the person’s face？”when we are to send a massage online？（Please answer within 15 words）

58．What is the meaning of the underlined word offended in Paragraph 4?  .（Please answer using one word）

59．Which rule do you think is the most valuable one？Why？（Please answer within 20 words）

60．What other rules should we obey when chatting online besides those mentioned in the passage？（Please write within 20 words）

Upon reaching an appropriate age (usually between 18 and 21 years)， children are encouraged, but not forced, to “l(fā)eave the nest” and begin an independent life. After children leave home, they often find social relationship and financial support outside the family. Parents do not arrange marriages for their children, nor do children usually ask permission of their parents to get married. Romantic love is most often the basis for marriage in the United States; young adults meet their future spouses（配偶）through other friends, at jobs,  and in organizations and religious institutions. Although children choose their own spouses, they still hope their parents will approve of their choices.

In many families, parents feel that children should make major life decisions by themselves. A parent may try to influence a child to follow a particular profession but the child is free to choose another career. Sometimes children do exactly the opposite of what their parents wish in order to be independent. A son may decide not to go into his father’s business on purpose because of a fear that he will lose his autonomy(自主) in his father’s workplace. This independence from parents is not an indication that parents and children do not love each other. Strong love between parents and children is universal and this is no exception in the American family. Coexisting（共存）with such love in the American family are cultural values of self – reliance and independence.

51. The writer discusses the marriage of young adults in order to show which of the following？

A. They have a strong desire to become independent.

B. They want to win the permission of their parents.

A. their parents              B. financial concern  

C. love                                    D. family background

53. From the passage we can know that _________.

A. American young adults are likely to obey their parents

B. most American people never make major decisions for their children

C. American young adults possess cultural values of independence

D. once a young person steps into his twenties, he will leave his home permanently

54. A son is unwilling to work in his father’s business mainly because ________.

A. he wishes to make full use of what he has learnt in school

B. he wants to prove his independence

C. he wishes to do the opposite of what his parents approve of

D. he wants to show his love for his parents

55. The main idea of this passage is ________.

NOT all memories are sweet．Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences．Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars．Often the experiences in nightmares appear repeatedly．

Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories．The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience．They hope it might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memories．

In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France．The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far, the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out．They are not sure to what degree people's memories are affected．

The research has caused a lot of argument．Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it．Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war．They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories．

“Some memories can ruin people's lives．They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare．They usually come with very painful emotions,” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School．“This could relieve a lot of that suffering．”

But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people's memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity．They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past．

“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are．I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out.” said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist(倫理學家)．

46．The passage is mainly about        ．

       A．a(chǎn) new medical invention

       B．a(chǎn) new research on the pill

       C．a(chǎn)n argument about the research on the pill

       D．a(chǎn) way of wiping out painful memories

47．The drug tested on people can        ．

       A．cause the brain to fix memories

       B．stop people remembering bad experiences

       C．wipe out the emotional effects of memories

       D．prevent body producing certain chemicals

48．We can infer from the passage that        ．

       A．Experts are not sure about the effects of the pills．

       B．the pill will certainly stop people's emotional memories

       C．taking the pill will do harm to people's physical health

       D．the pill has already been produced and used by the public America

49．Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with in the last paragraph?

       A．some memories can ruin people's lives．

       B．people want to get rid of bad memories．

       C．experiencing bad events makes us different from others．

       D．the pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories．

       A．a(chǎn) guidebook                                     B．a(chǎn) textbook

       C．a(chǎn) medical magazine                                D．a(chǎn) science fiction

There is a common belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever considered spelling unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, quite different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (優(yōu)先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is how to en­courage a child to express himself freely in writing without holding him back with spelling.

If spelling becomes the only point of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will write only words within his spelling range. That’s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.

I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: “This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling mistakes.” It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupils’ technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad thing for the teacher who had omitted (略過) to read the composition, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child’s deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw atten­tion to the mistakes, but if his priority had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more hope to seek improve­ment.

41. Teachers differ in their opinions about       

A. the difficulties in teaching spelling

B. the necessity of teaching spelling

C. the importance of the basic writing skills

D. the role of spelling in general language development

42. The expression “play safe” probably means ____.

A. to write carefully        

B. to avoid using words one is not sure of

C. to use dictionaries frequently  

D. to do as teachers say

43. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that____.

A. students will be able to express their ideas more freely.

B. teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes.

C. students will have more trust in writing.

D. students will learn to spell words correctly.

44. The writer seems to think that the teacher’s judgment on that sensitive piece of writing is____.

A. reasonable     B. unfair         C. foolish        D. careless

45. The main idea of the passage is _______.

A. the importance of developing writing skills

B. the importance of spelling

C. the correct way of marking composition

D. the relationship between spelling and the content of a composition

Do you like to eat out? Do you like to eat quickly? Do you like inexpensive food? Some people go to fast-food restaurants for these reasons. In the past, people usually went to diners (路邊小餐館)for these reasons. In fact, many people in the State still go to diners today for the same reasons.

A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. It was not really a diner. It was only a food cart. People on the street walked up to the cart to buy food. These carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and all late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with counters and stools and people sat down while they ate.   

Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dish, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.

Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. They are usually buildings with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booths, and tables and chairs. People can eat all three meals in a modern diner.

Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonald’s and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.

36. A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. Why is diner in quotation marks(引號)?

A. Because it is spelled differently from “dinner”.

B. Because diner was a new word.

C. Because the first diner was not a real diner.

D. Because it is a special kind of restaurant.

37. What meals did the first diners serve?

A. Only breakfast.                  B. Only night-meals. 

C. Only lunch.                D. All of the above.

38. According to paragraph 3, diners changed in ____________________.

A. two ways       B. three ways            C. four ways       D. five ways

39. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Diners existed before fast-food restaurant.

B. The menu included more food than sandwiches and coffee.

C. Burger King is a fast-food restaurant.

D. Sandwiches became bigger.

40. The main idea of the passage is that _____________________.

A. the diner is a traditional and popular place to eat in the United States

B. Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside

C. American diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customers

D. diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many ways

Mark Gibson is a former gymnastics coach who once worked with many excellent athletes. He often tells a wonderful story about a 15-year-old 　16 girl, Cindy, whose attitude brought out the best in everyone.

Cindy wasn’t a great 　17 , but when she was in the gym, everyone complained less, worked harder, and, not 　18 , achieved more. Cindy was such a powerful motivator 　19 she could see nothing. When it was her turn to do the vault（跳馬）, mother would also 　20 alongside her, and tell her how close she was to the vault. When her mom said, “Vault!”, Cindy would reach out and jump, 　21 her mother and herself.

Cindy loved the sport and kept 　22 because she and her mom refused to be defeated by her 　23 . Mark called her the most 　24 member of the team, not because of her 　25 ability, but because of her heart and because she 　26 a standard of perseverance(堅持) and courage that inspired others to get more out of themselves. Everyone who 　27 her work hard to be the best 28 how much more they could get out of themselves.

This is leadership---leadership by 　29 . And we see this sort of leadership not only in 　30 but also in families and in the workplace. Often the most important members of the team are not the 　31 , most skilled, or most powerful. Instead, their 　32 is in their attitude and their ability to inspire and 　33 others with their optimism, enthusiasm, and determination.

People who know how to get the best out of themselves get the best of others.

There’s no doubt that Cindy’s 　34 has a great effect on her teammates. A person’s personality matters most because it comes from within and does not depend on 　35 alone.
