11.In 1939,two brothers,Mac and Dick McDonald,started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernardino,California.They carefully chose a bus corner for their location.They had run their own businesses for years,first a theater,then a barbecue restaurant,and then another drive-in.But in their new operation,they offered a new,shortened menu:French fries,hamburgers,and sodas.To this small selection they added one new concept:quick service,no waiters or waitresses,and no tips.
Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents.Cheese was another four cents.Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity (一致性),for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food,and they insisted on their cooks'sticking to their routine.Their new drive-in became incredibly popular,particularly for lunch.People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime.The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened.They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.
Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954,when he was selling milk shake-mixing machines.He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers'fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise(特许经营)other copies of their restaurants.The agreement included the right to copy the menu,the equipment,even their red and white buildings with the golden arches.
Today McDonald's is really a household name.Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to order fifteen-cent hamburgers.In 1976,McDonald's had over $ 1billion in total sales.Its first twenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.
21.This passage mainly talks aboutB.
A.the development of fast food services
B.how McDonald's became a billion-dollar business
C.how to build up a successful restaurant
D.Ray Kroc's business talent
22.Mac and Dick managed all of the following businesses exceptB.
A.a drive-in      
B.a cinema      
C.a theater     
D.a barbecue restaurant
23.We may infer from this passage thatD.
A.Mac and Dick McDonald never became wealthy for they sold their idea to Kroc
B.The location was the only reason for the great popularity of the McDonalds'drive-in
C.Forty years ago there were numerous fast-food restaurants
D.Ray Kroc was a good businessman
24.What can we learn from the passage about Mac and Dick McDonaldD
A.They were always satisfied with their modest success.
B.They sold cheese for 19cents in their restaurant.
C.They allowed Ray Kroc only to copy their menu.
D.They stuck to the routine for their food.

12.Electric Cars
Where do cars get their energy from?For most cars,the answer is petrol.But some cars use electricity.These cars have special motors that get their power from large batteries.

Most people tend to think of electric cars as a new invention,but they have been around for a long time.They were popular when the technology for petrol engines was not very advanced.Recently,
electric cars have again become popular because people want cars that pollute less.
Electric cars are better than petrol cars in several ways.The biggest benefit is reduced
pollution.In areas where there is a high percentage of electric cars,there is less pollution.But it
is important to understand that electric cars still cause pollution.Remember that the electricity to
power electric cars has to come from somewhere,which is most likely a power station.Unless
these power stations run on solar or wind energy,they are most likely burning coal and oil to make
electricity.The second benefit of electric cars is a reduction in the dependence on foreign oil.
There are several countries,including the United States,which don't want to rely on oil coming
from other countries to power their transportation systems.They want the power to come from
within their country,and since electric cars can run on electricity from coal or nuclear power
stations,there is less of a need to import oil.
Despite the benefits of electric cars,there are some problems with them as well.One
disadvantage is that electric cars are more expensive than petrol cars.This is mostly due to the
high cost of the batteries these cars need.Electric cars run on batteries,just like a mobile phone
does.But unlike a mobile phone,you cannot charge your electric car's battery by plugging it into
a wall.They need to be charged in special places.Now,there is a lack of places where people
can charge the batteries.Another problem is that electric cars cannot travel as far as petrol cars.
Some people are afraid that the battery will run out of electricity (and the car will stop) before
they reach their destination.
Despite these problems,many people,including automobile industry experts,believe that
the percentage of electric cars will increase in the future.

33.What's the main idea of Paragraph 3?C
A.Electric cars make some countries independent.
B.Electric cars cause no pollution to the environment.
C.Electric cars have some advantages over petrol cars.
D.Electric cars need electricity from solar or wind energy.
34.Which of the following is not mentioned as the shortcomings of electric cars?B
A.Petrol cars are cheaper than electric cars.
B.Electric cars need special motors to get power.
C.Petrol cars can travel farther than electric cars.
D.Electric cars need special places to get charged.
35.We can infer from the passage that.D
A.electric cars will take the place of petrol cars
B.no one holds hope for electric cars at present
C.electric cars waste more energy than before
D.more and more people will use electric cars
36.The main purpose of the passage is to.C
A.argue and prove     B.attract and discuss
C.inform and explain     D.advertise and conclude.

11.Children have their own rules in playing games.They seldom need a referee and rarely trouble to keep scores.They don't care much about who wins or loses,and it doesn't seem to worry them if the game is not finished.Yet,they like games that depend a lot on luck,so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compared.They also enjoy games that move in stages,in which each stage,the choosing of leaders,the picking-up of sides,or the determining of which side shall start,is almost a game in itself.
Grown-ups can hardly find children's games exciting,and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again.However,it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons.He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person,and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid.He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn.He can be confident,too,in particular games,that it is his place to give orders,to pretend to be dead,to throw a ball actually at someone,or to kiss someone he has caught.
It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control.Everyone knows the rules,and more importantly,everyone plays according to the rules.Those rules may be childish,but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.

24.What is true about children when they play games?A
A.They don't need rules.
B.They want to pick a better team.
C.They can test their personal abilities.
D.They can stop playing any time they like.
25.To become a leader in a game the child has toB.
A.play well
B.wait for his turn
C.be confident in himself
D.be popular among his playmates
26.The writer believes thatA.
A.children play games without reasons
B.children's games can do them a lot of good
C.children should invite grown-ups to play with them
D.children should make better rules for their games.

12.Every day,people come into contact with thousands of chemicals.These chemicals are said to be harmless to human health.In fact,the chemicals are considered so safe that we wash with them.We put them on our bodies and even our faces.Other chemical products are used throughout our homes.
By the time you walk out of your front door,you have already been exposed to thousands of chemicals.
On its own,each chemical seems harmless.But in combination with other chemicals,they may become deadly.That is the finding of a two-year study by a high-profile(高调的)task force of scientists.The task force was told to investigate the cancer-causing possibility of chemical mixtures.
Linda Gulliver was one of the 174 scientists on the task force.Their job was to study the cancer-causing potential of 85 chemicals.All 85 are said to be common in the environment.
Ms.Gulliver explains that chemicals have the potential or ability to form dangerous mixtures.Even simple minerals can become dangerous when mixed with chemicals found in plastics or beauty products.
Working in groups,the scientists explored how different chemical mixtures could lead to cancer.Ms.Gulliver's team looked at the ability of different combinations to support the increase of malignant(恶性的)human cells.
She says the current way to identify whether chemicals cause cancer is to test them one at a time.This method leads,she adds,to a long list of supposedly"safe"chemicals.She and her team say that approach needs to change.
"We definitely need certain research…to find out what mixtures of chemicals would be more harmful than others; what groups of chemicals,when together,would produce more harmful effects.And at the moment,that is not known."
An estimated one in five cancers has been linked to chemical exposure.It may turn out that the cancer-causing villain(恶棍)is not a single chemical at all.

32.What effect may one single chemical have on us according to the text?B
A.It may destroy our body.
B.It may not cause danger to us.
C.It may let us suffer from cancer.
D.It may let our body make a change.
33.What can we learn about Ms.Gulliver's research?D
A.She has found 85 cancer-causing chemicals.
B.She has found reasons for five kinds of cancers.
C.She has found that only one chemical can cause cancer.
D.She is not sure what mixtures of chemicals are more harmful.
34.According to the text,we can infer that the studyB.
A.is just wasting time and money
B.is still in need of great efforts
C.will cause panic in public
D.will be resisted by the public
35.What is the best title for the text?A
A.Mixtures of Safe Chemicals May Cause Cancer
B.Being Exposed to One Chemicals Is Dangerous
C.How Mixtures of Safe Chemicals Come into Being?
D.What Is the Real Cause For Cancer?
