    Anger at the practice of demanding dowries, which can lead to violence against brides, has caused a takeoff of "Angry Birds" called "Angry Brides" that aims to highlight the illegal practice still common in many South Asian countries.

    Dowries -- such as jewelry, clothes, cars and money -- are traditionally given by the bride's family to the groom and his parents to ensure she is taken care of in her new home.

    The custom was outlawed more than five decades ago. But it is still widely practiced, with the groom's family demanding even more money after marriage, leading to mental and physical abuse that can drive the woman to suicide.

    "The Angry Brides game is our way of throwing a spotlight on the nuisance (陋习) of dowry," said Ram Bhamidi, senior vice president and head of online marketing for Shaadi.com, a matrimonial (婚姻的) website with two million members.

    "According to a 2007 study, there is a dowry-related death every four hours in India. We condemn this and have consistently run campaigns on social media to help create awareness of the issue."

    The name of the app, available on the group's home page, is a spinoff from the globally popular "Angry Birds" game. Its home page shows a red-clad, eight-armed woman resembling a powerful female Hindu goddess. Underneath, there is a caption: "A woman will give you strength, care and all the love you need ... NOT dowry!"

    To play the game, users have to try and hit three dodging grooms -- a pilot, builder and doctor. There is a wide array of weapons to choose from, including a stiletto shoe, a frying pan, broomstick, tomato and loafer.

    Each groom has a price tag, starting at 1.5 million rupees ($29,165). Every time the player hits a groom, his value decreases and money is added to the player's Anti-Dowry Fund, which is saved posted on their Facebook page.

    "Since we launched the game last week, more than 270,000 people have liked the app. Both men and women seem to be playing it," said Bhamidi.

    1.What caused "Angry Brides" to appear online?

    A．Women's rights' being seriously abused．

    B．Anger at the practice of demanding dowries．

    C．The bride's giving a great many dowries．

    A．The custom of giving dowries has been in practice for five decades．

    B．Lack of abundant dowries may lead to the bride's being in violence．

    C．The illegal practice of dowries is still popular in many African countries．

    D．More dowries the bride gives mean a high social status of her family．

    3.The underlined word "spinoff” probably means_____________．

    A．relation           B．connection        C．copy             D．fake

    4.Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the game "Angry Brides"?

    A．There are a variety of weapons to choose from．

    B．Ram Bhamidi thinks highly of the game．

    C．Men players don't find the game enjoyable．

    America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.  Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily. Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.  For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!

    A．an American

    A．warmly welcomed at the airport

    B．offered a ride to his home

    C．treated hospitably at his home

    科目：高中英语 来源：2013届云南省高一下学期期末考试英语题 题型：阅读理解

    There was once an 11-year-old boy who went fishing every time he went to an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake.

    On the day before bass (巴斯鱼) season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms. Then he tied on a small silver lure (鱼饵) and put it into the lake. Suddenly the boy felt something very big pulling on the lure. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. Finally he lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.

    The boy and his father looked at the big fish. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 pm — two hours before the season opened．He looked at the fish, then at the boy. “You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said．

    “Dad!” cried the boy. “There will be other fish,” said his father. “Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats could be seen in the moon-

    light. He looked again at his father.

    Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed．He threw the huge bass into the black water.

    The big fish disappeared. The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish. That

    was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.

    And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish ... again and again ... every time he has an ethical (道德的) decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.

    1.．How did the father feel when he saw his son skillfully pulling a big fish out of the water?

        A．Delighted．    B．Nervous.       C．Embarrassed．     D．Shocked．

    2.What happened when it became clear that the big fish was a bass?

        A．The boy and his father discussed what to do with the big fish.

        B．The boy threw the bass back into the water willingly.

        C．The father made a decision that the fish must be set free.

        D．They worried other fishermen might know what they had done.

    3.The successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because             .

        A．they might catch a big fish there     B．he remembered the moral lesson from his father

        C．he wanted to remember his father       D．their children enjoyed fishing there

    4.What does the author want to show in the story?

        A．It is easy to say something, but difficult to do.

    B．An ethical decision is not difficult to make.

        C．It is hard to tell right from wrong sometimes.

        D．Fishing helps you to make right ethical decisions.
