Section One
The city is an accumulation of human civilization．Just as the American social philosopher （哲学家） Lewis Mumford put it, it is a special system which, fine and compact, has been designed to preserve the fruits of human civilization．Many Western languages have developed their versions of the term “civilization” from the same Latin （拉丁语的） word “civitas”（meaning “city”）, and it is by no means a coincidence．The city has played a significant role in the perfection of order in human society．
Section Two
The emblem, showing the image of three people ― you, me, him/her holding hands together, symbolizes the big family of mankind．Inspired by the shape of the Chinese character “世” （meaning the world）, the design conveys the organizers' wish to host an Expo which is of global scale and which displays the various urban cultures of the world．
Section Three
Created from the inspiration of Chinese character “人”, the design roots deeply in Chinese culture．It tells the world the eternal core （永恒的核心） and theme of Shanghai World Expo will be always human．The mascot “Haibao” will become the messenger for the theme of World Expo 2010 Shanghai China “Better City, Better Life”．
The basic structure of the Chinese character “人” in which each stroke（一笔，一划） supports each other also shows the concept that the beautiful life should depends on mutual-help．If the human are willing to support one another, the harmony among human, nature, and society will be available．Such an urban life will be nice．
Haibao’s confident smile is expressing his sincere greeting from China ― “World Expo 2010 Shanghai China welcomes you!”
Section One mainly tells us about ______．
A．the part cities play in human civilization
B．the development of the word “city”
C．why the Expo is held in Shanghai

When I first began to work with international students, I asked someone at a lunch, “What brings you here today?” Looking at me like I was a bit crazy, he answered, “ The bus.” That was my first realization that no matter how good a speaker is, there are phrases that will always tend to cause confusion to non-native speakers. These idiomatic phrases(惯用语) add color and interest to any language and are worth learning if you want to talk fluently with native speakers.
“By no stretch”----The speaker is referring to something that’s very hard to achieve or realize, even with great effort, as in “It was not a good meal, by any stretch of the imagination.” Which means that ______________.
“Half dead”----An expression of extreme tiredness, having nothing to do with actual health. Commonly used at the end of a long and tiring day.
“By the book”----This means that an action should follow the rules exactly. It also describes the nature of someone who won’t deviate(背离) from a set of rules no matter what the situation is.
“More power to you”----This isn’t a wish for you to have better electricity from the power company----it’s a statement, usually slightly ironic(讽刺的), that the speaker thinks that you are unlikely to do a task, but you should try if you think you can complete it. It generally means the speaker has no intention of helping you achieve your goal neither will they discourage you from attempting to reach it. For example, “I don’t think you can meet that deadline, but more power to you.”
“As easy as pie”----A reference that something is as simple or easy as eating a delicious dessert, or that it requires little effort to successfully achieve. In chatting, this phrase does not refer to the process of cooking or eating.
The example given by the author in the first paragraph is used to show__________.
A. the importance of learning idioms B. the beauty of the English language
C. the foolishness of the student D. the cause of the misunderstanding
According to the passage, which of the following would be proper to fill in the blank in Paragraph 2?
A. the meal is very delicious B. it’s very hard to make the meal delicious
C. people make great efforts to make the meal delicious
D. even if people try to believe it, the meal could not be described as good
If someone says he is half dead, he means____________.
A. he is in poor health B. he cannot move
C. he has a sound sleep D. he is exhausted
If a person daren’t do things in a creative way, you may describe him by using “__________”.
A. by no stretch B. by the book
C. as easy as pie D. the breaker of rules

All over my garden I’ve planted nothing but roses, sweet and — if looked at far away — bright with color like sunset clouds, I’d be very happy if anyone of my visiting friends should desire to pick and take some for their homes. I trust that any friend of mine carrying the rose would disappear into the distance feeling that his emotions had been rekindled (重燃).
A close friend came for a visit the other day. I know her to be a lover of flowers and plants. And for that reason I told her at her departure that she should pick a bunch of roses to grace her bedroom. I promised that the smell of the roses would be wafted far, far away.
That girl friend of mine, tiptoeing into the garden in high spirits, smelt here and there, but in the end she didn’t pick a single rose. I said there were so many of them that she would pick as many as she’d like to; I told her that I was not a flower farmer and didn’t make a living out of them. Saying so I raised the scissors for the sacrifice of the flowers, but she stopped me, crying no, no, no!
To cut such beautiful roses would hurt one, she said. With her hands seizing at my sleeves, she told me that by no means should they be cut. Roses are the smiling face of the earth, and who could be so iron-hearted as to destroy a smile so charming?
My mind was thoroughly shocked: the ugly earth, the rough earth, the plain earth—it is for the reason of that smile that it wins the care and pity of people
The underlined word “wafted” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “__________”.
A. moved B. lost C. destroyed D. felt
The writer plants nothing but roses in her garden probably because __________.
A. she can make money out of them
B. her friends like them
C. she enjoys the roses very much
D. the roses can rekindle her friends’ emotions
Why did the writer’s close friend refuse to pick a single rose?
A. Because the roses were not beautiful
B. Because she did not like this kind of roses
C. Because the writer did not want to give her any
D. Because she loved the roses very much
What would be the best title for the passage?
A. A lovely rose garden. B. The smiling face of the earth
C. The pity of people to the roses. D. A lover of flowers

In 1987, while serving as the public affairs officer at Fort Bragg, I would frequently visit the local high schools to speak to the students about the Army. As a lieutenant colonel(中校), I found it particularly rewarding to talk with the teenagers about the benefits of military service, if only for a few years of their lives.
During one of these visits, I reported to the secretary in the principal’s office to let her know that I was here for the third-period class. I was a little surprised when she told me. “The principal would like to see you before you go to the class.”
As I entered his office, I was greeted by a gentleman who appeared to be in his late thirties, and he welcomed me with a smile and a handshake. “You don’t remember me, do you?” he said.
I looked closely at the face again and could not recall where we may have met before.
“You were my company commander in basic training at Fort Jackson in 1970,” the principal said.
“Let me help you out,” he suggested. “You gave me a three-day pass to go home and see my newborn baby.” I immediately remembered the incident!
“Yes,” I said. “I remember now.” It was the only three-day pass I had issued because the soldiers were on their way to Vietnam immediately after they finished training. But I knew if I did not let him go home to see his son and something happened to him, I would regret denying the opportunity he had to be with his family.
“Come on, Colonel. I’d like to introduce you to ‘the baby’. He’s in your third-period class. By letting me go see him, you gave me a reason to stay focused and to come home safe from that war. Thank you , sir.”
It was the most rewarding class I had ever given, and I had no problem in telling the students about the bonds of friendship and the values that Army life can provide…and that can last a lifetime.
