    阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）
    Everyone has got two personalities (性格)- the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your behaviour, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.
    ● If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don’t like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very confident.
    ● If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and you're always easily upset. You're very stubborn, but you aren't very ambitious. You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.
    ●If you sleep on curling(蜷缩)up, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you're often defensive. You're shy and you don't normally like meeting people. You prefer to___________________.
    ●If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weakness. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don't often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.

    3、根据上文You're shy and you don't normally like meeting people一句很容易能够判断出下文应该是You prefer to be on your self / stay alone。

    Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are great conquerors and generals and soldiers, whereas the people who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat, or calculated the length of the year, or manured(施肥)a field; but we know all about the killers and destroyers. People think a great deal of them, so much so that on all the highest pillars (纪念柱) in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are those that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just possible they are, but they are not the most civilized.
    　　Animals fight; so do savages (野蛮人); hence to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which an animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it most efficiently －this, after all, is what conquerors and generals have done －is not being civilized. People fight to settle quarrels.            Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some way of settling their disputes other than by seeing which side can kill off the greater number of the other side, and then saying that that side which has killed most has won. And it not only has won, but, because it has won, has been in the right. For that is what going to war means; it means saying that might is right.
    　　That is what the story of mankind has on the whole been like. Even our own age has fought the two greatest wars in history, in which millions of people were killed or disabled. And while today it is true that people do not fight and kill each other in the streets －while, that is to say, we have got to the stage of keeping the rules and behaving properly to each other in daily life － nations and countries have not learnt to do this yet, and still behave like savages.
    小题1:In the opening sentence the author indicates that ________.
    A．conquerors, generals and soldiers should not be mentioned in history books.
    B．history books focus more on those who helped civilization forward.
    C．those who truly helped civilization forward is rarely mentioned in history books.
    D．most history books were written by conquerors, generals and soldiers.
    小题2:In the author’s opinion, the countries that ruled over a large number of other countries are           
    A．certainly both the greatest and the most civilized
    B．neither the most influential nor the most civilized.
    C．possibly the most civilized but not the most powerful.
    D．likely the greatest in some sense but not the most civilized.
    小题3: The meaning of “it means saying that might is right.”(The last sentence of Paragraph 2) is that ________.
    A．in a war only those who are powerful will win.
    B．those who are right should fight against those who are wrong.
    C．only those who are powerful have the right to go to war.
    D．those who fight believe that the winner is right and the loser wrong.
    小题4: In the third paragraph, what the author wants to convey to us is that ________.
    A．we have fought fewer wars but suffered heavier casualties.
    B．modern time is not so civilized compared with the past.
    C．our age is not much better than those of the past.
    D．World War I and World War II are different from previous wars.
    小题5: According to the passage, who helped civilization forward?
    A. The pioneers in science and technology.
    B. Conquerors and generals.
    C. Those setting disputes by force.
    The experts in military matters
    小题6: This passage is most likely taken from an article entitled ________.
    A．Who Should Be Remembered
    B．Civilization and History
    C．War and World Peace
    D．Great conquerors in the world

    Some futurologists have assumed that the vast upsurge(剧增)of women in the workforce may portend a rejection of marriage. Many women, according to this hypothesis, would rather work than marry. The converse(反面)of this concern is that the prospects of becoming a multi-paycheck household could encourage marriage. In the past, only the earnings and financial prospects of the man counted in the marriage decision. Now, however, the earning ability of a woman can make her more attractive as a marriage partner. Data show that economic downturns tend to putting off marriage because the parties cannot afford to establish a family or are concerned about rainy days ahead. As the economy comes to life, the number of marriages also rises.
    The increase in divorce rates follows to the increase in women working outside the home. Yet, it may be wrong to jump to any simple cause-and-effect conclusions. The impact of a wife’s work on divorce is no less cloudy than its impact on marriage decisions. The realization that she can be a good provider may increase the chances that a working wife will choose divorce over an unsatisfactory marriage. But the reverse is equally plausible(似是而非的). Tensions grounded in financial problems often play a key role in ending a marriage. By raising a family’s standard of living, a working wife may strengthen her family’s financial and emotional stability.
    Psychological factors also should be considered. For example, a wife blocked from a career outside the home may feel caged in the house. She may view her only choice as seeking a divorce. On the other hand, if she can find fulfillment through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union.
    Also, a major part of women’s inequality in marriage has been due to the fact that, in most cases, men have remained the main breadwinners. A working wife may rob a husband of being the master of the house. Depending upon how the couple reacts to these new conditions, it could create a stronger equal partnership or it could create new insecurities.
    小题1:The word “portend” (Line 2, Para.1) is closest in meaning to“_____”.
    A．defyB．signalC．suffer fromD．result from
    小题2:It is said in the passage that when the economy slides_____.
    A．men would choose working women as their marriage partners
    B．more women would get married to seek financial security
    C．even working women would worry about their marriages
    D．more people would prefer to remain single for the time being
    小题3:If women find fulfillment through work outside the home,_____.
    A．they are more likely to dominate their marriage partners
    B．their husbands are expected to do more housework
    C．their marriage ties can be strengthened
    D．they tend to put their career before marriage
    小题4:One reason why women with no career may seek a divorce is that_____.
    A．they feel that they have been robbed of their freedom
    B．they are afraid of being bossed around by their husbands
    C．they feel that their partners fail to live up to their expectations
    D．they tend to suspect their husbands? loyalty to their marriage
    小题5:Which of the following statements can best summarize the authors view in the passage?
    A．The stability of marriage and the divorce rate may reflect the economic situation of the country.
    B．Even when economically independent, most women have to struggle for real equality in marriage.
    C．In order to secure their marriage women should work outside the home and remain independent
    D．The impact of the growing female workforce on marriage varies from case to case.

    In recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts say the ___1___ is to make jobs more varied(多样的).

As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then, ___5___ is not an important factor.
    Other experts feel that giving the worker___6___ to do his job in his own way is important, and there is no doubt that this is true.

Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to ___9___ it.
    Another important ___10___ is how much each worker ___11___ to the product he is making. In most factories the worker ___12___ only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now ___13___ with having many small production lines rather than one large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his___14___. It would seem that not only is degree of worker contribution an important factor ___15___ it is one we can do something about.
    To what___16___ does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is ___17___. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. ___18___ just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A ___19___ argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we ___20___ making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter working hours be so important to them.

    The whole world is helping tsunami (海啸) victims. Students in the U.S. are also taking part. A friend of mine suggested that we organize a relief effort for the victims. We are officers of the American Red Cross at Yale (I’m the chairperson). After sending a letter to the other members of the Red Cross, I received a large number of responses from students interested in helping.
    We decided to organize a charity concert to raise money for tsunami-ravaged areas. All ticket earnings will go directly to our parent organization, the American Red Cross. Currently, we’re in the process of inviting Yale’s numerous song, dance, and chamber music groups to perform at the concert.
    So far, we’ve had a great response from these groups and volunteers have continued to pour in with their ideas and feedback. When I checked my inbox this morning, I had 56 tsunami fundraiser-related emails waiting for me. Although, everyone is still on winter vacation and away from school, we have the Internet to link up Yalies from around the globe. We share ideas not on the latest video games, but on how best to provide help.
    The Red Cross at Yale is not alone in its aid effort. Student organizations across campus are working hard to raise funds and provide help to those who need it.
    Yale’s South Asian Society (SAS) and the Asian American Students Alliance (AASA), which is an umbrella  organization for many other groups including the Sri Lankan Students Association, are organizing charity dinners.
    The food will be donated（捐赠）by restaurants from around campus. Every last penny of the earnings will be donated to a non-profit organization providing aid to South Asia.
    After some discussion with the SAS and AASA, our groups have decided to plan our two events together. Students can attend the benefit dinner then go to the charity concert. There is no doubt in my mind that both events will have a fantastic turnout.
    小题1:What does the writer mainly talk about in this passage?
    A．A charity concert to help tsunami victims.
    B．The efforts of the American Red Cross at Yale to help tsunami victims.
    C．The worldwide efforts to help tsunami victims.
    D．What the Americans do to help tsunami victims.
    小题2:The author keeps in touch with Yalies to ______.
    A．ask them to offer helpB．inform them the latest news
    C．ask them to join in the concertD．ask them to work for the Red Cross
    小题3:What does “both events” refer to in the last paragraph?
    A. SAS and AASA.
    B. The Red Cross at Yale and the American Red Cross.
    C. The benefit dinner and the charity concert.
    D. Raising funds and providing help.
    小题4:Which of the following is NOT right?
    A．Students were taking an active part in the activity
    B．The American Red Cross at Yale raised money for tsunami-ravaged areas by organizing a charity concert
    C．Other organizations are working hard to raise funds and provide help to those who need it.
    D．The tsunami happened in South America.

    Increasingly, Americans are becoming their own doctors, by going online to diagnose their symptoms, order home health tests or medical devices, or even self-treat their illnesses with drugs from Internet pharmacies(药店). Some avoid doctors because of the high cost of medical care, especially if they lack health insurance. Or they may stay because they find it embarrassing to discuss their weight, alcohol consumption or couch potato habits. Patients may also fear what they might learn about their health, or they distrust physicians because of negative experiences in the past. But playing doctor can also be a deadly game.  
    Every day, more than six million Americans turn to the Internet for medical answers – most of them aren’t nearly skeptical enough of what they find. A 2002 survey by the Pew Internet & American Life Project found that 72 percent of those surveyed believe all or most of what they read on health websites. They shouldn’t. Look up “headache”, and the chances of finding reliable and complete information, free from a motivation for commercial gain, are only one in ten, reports an April 2005 Brown Medical School study. Of the 169 websites the researchers rated, only 16 scored as “high quality”. Recent studies found faulty facts about all sorts of other disorders, causing one research team to warn that a large amount of incomplete, inaccurate and even dangerous information exists on the Internet.
    The problem is most people don’t know the safe way to surf the Web. “They use a search engine like Google, get 18 trillion choices and start clicking. But that’s risky, because almost anybody can put up a site that looks authoritative(权威的), so it’d hard to know if what you’re reading is reasonable or not,” says Dr. Sarah Bass from the National Cancer Institute.
    小题1:According to the text, an increasing number of American _____.
    A．are suffering from mental disorders
    B．turn to Internet pharmacies for help
    C．like to play deadly games with doctors
    D．are skeptical about surfing medical websites
    小题2:Some Americans stay away from doctors because they _____.
    A．find medical devices easy to operate
    B．prefer to be diagnosed online by doctors
    C．are afraid to face the truth of their health
    D．are afraid to misuse their health insurance
    小题3:According to the study of Brown Medical School, ______.
    A．more than 6 million Americans distrust doctors
    B．only 1/10 of medical websites aim to make a profit
    C．about 1/10 of the websites surveyed are of high quality
    D．72% of health websites offer incomplete and faulty facts
    小题4:Which of the following is the author’s main argument?
    A．It’s cheap to self-treat your own illness.
    B．It’s embarrassing to discuss your bad habits.
    C．It’s reasonable to put up a medical website.
    D．It’s dangerous to be your own doctor.

    To Chinese immigrants, in the mid-1800s, California was “The Land of the Golden Mountain.” In their homeland they had heard the words, “There’s gold in California.” They sailed 7,000miles to join the gold rush and strike it rich. Between 1849 and 1882, more than 30,000 Chinese came to California. Most were men. They had been farmers in China. They came here to be miners and laborers. They ended up doing many other jobs, too.
    Like many other immigrants, they did not plan to stay in America. They came because of their ties to their homeland and their families. They planned to return to China with their fortunes and help their families.
    Only a few Chinese gold miners struck it rich. Most picked over the areas that had been mined already. But still, white miners resented the Chinese. Slowly, they drove the “yellow peril” from the mining camps.
    By the end of the 1850s, many Chinese returned home. Those who stayed found other jobs.
    Few women had come west in the gold rush. The Chinese saw a good business opportunity. They began doing the jobs women would have done. Many became house servants. Many more opened  laundries.
    The Chinese opened restaurants. Chop suey and show mein are popular Chinese-American dishes. The Chinese probably created these dishes to serve to the white miners.
    Other Chinese became fishermen, farmers, and even cigar makers.
    1. Why did Chinese go to America in the mid-1800s?
    A. Because they could find good jobs there.   B. Because they had found gold there.
    C. Because they could open laundries and restaurants there.
    2. The underlined word “resented” mean “________”.  
    A. liked                        B. helped               C. hated                    D. served
    3. Which should be the title of the passage?
    A. Early Chinese immigrants in America     B. Dream to strike it rich
    C. The difference between men and women   D. Gold miners in America

    In the U.S., people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without first asking if it will disturb them.
    At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.
    Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.
    Serving in restaurants is often large; too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself.
    Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal.
    Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.
    1. Which statement is true?
    A. American people like sitting with people they don’t know.
    B. Tips shouldn’t be given to the waiter or waitress.
    C. Orange juice is served before you order
    D. American people would not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking.
    2. What does the underlined word “doggie bag” mean in the article? It means ______.
    A. a bag with a picture of a dog on it
    B. a bag used to carry dogs
    C. a small bag for taking the food left over home to enjoy it later
    D. a small bag for taking the food left over home for dogs
    3. Sunday dinner is _______.
    A. a dinner in the evening               B. a big noon meal
    C. a big lunch Sunday                  D. a supper on Sunday
