    【题目】Modern life is comfortable. Meanwhile, it is costly. As price and building costs keep rising, the do-it-yourself (DIY) trend (趋势) in the U.S. continues to grow.

    “We need furniture for our living-room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decide to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.

    Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe-making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. “I was deeply upset about it. Now I’ve finished a car repair course. I should be able to fix the car by myself.”

    John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living.

    If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’t have time to take the course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.

    【1】We can learn from the second paragraph that ______.

    A. many young people have difficulty building a house

    B. many newly married people take DIY courses for fun

    C. John and his wife make or repair things to save money

    D. John and his wife build their furniture to improve the quality of life

    【2】When the writer says that Jim has a full-time job at home, he means Jim ______.

    A. keeps house and looks after his children

    B. does extra work at night

    C. does his own car and home repairs

    D. makes shoes in his home

    【3】Jim Hatfield decided to become a do-it-yourselfer when ______.

    A. he had to raise the children all by himself

    B. his car repairs cost too much

    C. he could not possibly do two jobs

    D. The car repair class wasn’t helpful

    【题目】The English language was first introduced to the Americas by British colonization, beginning in 1607 in Jamestown, Virginia. Similarly, the language spread to numerous other parts of the world as a result of British trade and colonization elsewhere and the spread of the former British Empire, which, by 1921, held sway over a population of 470–570 million people, approximately a quarter of the world's population at that time.

    Over the past 400 years the form of the language used in the Americas—especially in the United States—and that used in the United Kingdom have diverged in a few minor ways, leading to the versions now occasionally referred to as American English and British English. Differences between the two include pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, spelling, punctuation, idioms, and formatting of dates and numbers. A small number of words have completely different meanings in the two versions or are even unknown or not used in one of the versions. One particular contribution towards formalizing these differences came from Noah Webster, who wrote the first American dictionary (published 1828) with the intention of showing that people in the United States spoke a different dialect from Britain, much like a regional accent.

    It may be the case that increased worldwide communication through radio, television, the Internet and globalization has reduced the tendency towards regional variation. This can result either in some variations becoming extinct (for instance, the wireless, being progressively superseded by the radio) or in the acceptance of wide variations as "perfectly good English" everywhere.

    Chief among other native English dialects are Canadian English and Australian English, which rank third and fourth in the number of native speakers. For the most part, Canadian English, while featuring numerous British forms alongside native Canadianisms, shares vocabulary, phonology and syntax with American English, leading many to recognize North American English as an organic grouping of dialects. Australian English likewise shares many American and British English usages alongside plentiful features unique to Australia, and retains a significantly higher degree of distinctiveness from both the larger varieties than does Canadian English. South African English, New Zealand English and the Hiberno-English of Ireland are also distinctive and rank fifth, sixth and seventh in the number of native speakers.

    【1】Which of the following native English dialects ranks fifth in the number of native speakers?

    A. Canadian English

    B. South African English

    C. the Hiberno-English of Ireland

    D. Australian English

    【2】Which of the following is NOT the reason why the English language spread to numerous parts of the world?

    A. British colonization

    B. the spread of the former English Empire

    C. British trade around the world

    D. a large British population

    【3】 It can be inferred from the passage that_____

    A. Australian English has developed more characteristics of its own than Canadian English.

    B. it is obvious that some variations will become extinct due to worldwide communication.

    C. everyone will be speaking “perfectly good English” in the future.

    D. almost a quarter of the world’s population spoke British English in 1921.

    【4】This passage is intended __________________

    A. to persuade us to speak perfectly good English in the future.

    B. to draw people’s attention to the extinction of different English dialects.

    C. to give the readers some useful information on variation of the English language.

    D. to do a research on how the English language has influenced the world.
