    Statuses are marvelous human inventions that enable us to get along with one another and to determine where we “fit”in society．As we go about our everyday lives，we mentally attempt to place people in terms of their statuses．For example，we must judge whether the person in the library is a reader or a librarian，whether the telephone caller is a friend or a salesman，whether the unfamiliar person on our property is a thief or a meter reader，and so on．
    The statuses we assume often vary with the people we encounter，and change throughout life．Most of us can，at very high speed，assume the statuses that various situations require．Much of social interaction consists of identifying and selecting among appropriate statuses and allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us．This means that we fit our actions to those of other people，based on a constant mental process of appraisal and interpretation．Although some of us find the task more difficult than others．most of us perform it rather effortlessly．
    A status has been compared to ready－made clothes．Within certain limits the buyer can choose style and fabric．But an American is not free to choose the costume of a Chinese peasant or that of a Hindu prince．We must choose from among the clothing presented by our society．Further more，our choice is limited to a size that will fit，as well as by our pocketbook．Having made a choice within these limits，we can have certain alterations made，but apart from minor adjustments．We tend to be limited to what the stores have on their racks．Statuses too come ready made，and the range of choice among them is limited．
    小题1:In the first paragraph the writer tells us that statuses can help us_________．
    A．protect ourselves in unfamiliar situations
    B．make friends with other people
    C．determine whether a person is fit for a certain job
    D．behave appropriately in relation to other people
    小题2:According to the writer，people often assume different statuses ________．
    A．in order to identify themselves with others
    B．as the situation changes
    C．in order to better identify others
    D．as their mental processes change
    小题3:The underlined word“appraisal”in the 2nd paragraph most likely means_______．
    A．judgmentB．appreciationC．involvementD．presentation
    小题4:In the last sentence of the second paragraph，“it”refers to“_________”．
    A．identification of other people’s statuses
    B．fitting our actions to those of other people appropriately
    C．selecting one’s own statuses
    D．constant mental process
    小题5:By saying that“an American is not free to choose the costume of a Chinese peasant or that of a Hindu prince”，the writer means___________．
    A．different people have different styles of clothes
    B．ready－made clothes may need alterations
    C．our choice of statuses is limited
    D．statuses come ready made just like clothes

    小题1:D
    小题2:B
    小题3:A
    小题4:B
    小题5:C

    试题分析：
    本文论述了身份在社会交往中的作用、身份认定随情况不同而变化以及人们的身份选择所受到的限制。
    小题1:细节题。第一段Statuses are marvelous human inventions that enable us to get along with one another and to determine where we “fit”in society一句表明：身份或地位有助于人们认清相互关系、确定自己在社会中的位置，从而采取适合自己身份地位的行为方式。选择D项。
    小题2:细节题。第二段The statuses we assume often vary with the people we encounter，and change throughout life 一句告诉读者：我们对自己身份的认定随我们面对的人士的不同而变化。故B项正确。
    小题3:词义推断题。第二段Much of social interaction consists of identifying and selecting among appropriate statuses and allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us一段文字说的是，社会交往过程中，需要识别和选择合适身份、并让他人认定他们自己与我们相对应的身份。而这是一个解读和判断的过程，我们在该解读和判断的基础上调整我们自己的行为。故 A项正确。
    小题4:细节题。第二段最后一句Although some of us find the task more difficult than others．most of us perform it rather effortlessly 中的it指的是从句中的task，也就是上文所说的 “根据解读和判断调整自己行为”。B项正确。
    小题5:最后一段Statuses too come ready made，and the range of choice among them is limited是该段主题句，作者以挑选衣服作比喻，是为了说明我们的身份选择只能在一定范围内进行，因而是有限制的。C项正确。

    科目：高中英语 来源：不详 题型：阅读理解

    Q: On Facebook, my friends are a mix of real-life pals, former classmates, professional colleagues, extended-family members, and … my mom. Mom is the first to like and comment on everything I post, which is annoying. I tried talking to her about it, but her feelings quickly got hurt, so I backed off. I know I can’t block her, but now I don’t want to post anything. How do I handle this?
    A: This is about Facebook, not your mom. The often-shrugged-off truth about social media is that nothing is private. It’s easy to forget this, so in a way, you’re lucky that your mom is reminding you. Everything you post—comments, likes, photos—is freely available to future friends, employers, lovers etc unless blocked. That said, you can ask Mom again nicely to tone it down. You can also customize your controls so she can’t see everything you post.
    Q: In which situations am I required to make a phone call versus send a text message?
    A: A text is for information—time, date, news. It’s for the stuff you can keep short and sweet. A phone call is for analysis, discussion, opinion, and, if you must, gossip.
    Q: I’m always on Facebook, so I just send messages to friends through the site. But when should I log off and send an e-mail?
    A: When you’re serious about anything. Think of it as chatting with someone on a bus versus asking her to meet you for coffee. The former is good for casual conversation; the latter is personal and requires attention.
    Q: For which occasions should I mail paper invitations versus send e-mail ones? (E-cards are free and easy—what’s not to love?!)
    A: Anything important needs a paper invitation. That’s your baseline. So ask yourself: “Do I want people to dress up for this event?” If the answer is yes, dress up your invitation by making it printed instead of virtual. For more casual events and gatherings, e-card away.
    Q: Is using emoticons ever inappropriate to express a feeling or make a point in texts or e-mails?
    A: Emoticons are for fun. Is the message you’re writing fun? Use an emoticon. Are you asking for a big favor? Skip it. Is the message to your boss or a colleague? Skip it. Avoid them if you want to be taken seriously about anything.
    Q: I have a big, happy announcement to share with a lot of people. Is it appropriate to share it on my blog?
    A: Yes, so you don’t have to go cc-ing everyone in an e-mail. Post away. But send a private message to those who should know first.
    Q: I have a big, sad announcement. What should I do?
    A: Respect your privacy—and yourself. Pick up the phone and call a trusted friend or family member to let her know, and then ask her to help spread the news offline.
    小题1:What do we learn about social media from the first Q and A?
    A．It is illegal to keep track of personal privacy on Facebook.
    B．Personal privacy is inaccessible online with control customized.
    C．People tend to ignore privacy provided it is blocked purposefully.
    D．We need someone to remind us constantly of our privacy online.
    小题2:Which of the following is appropriate about using social media?
    A．Sending texts to consult a doctor for surgery
    B．Carrying on casual conversations via emails.
    C．Emailing your boss with emoticons for promotion.
    D．Writing a formal invitation for a dress-up event.
    小题3:According to the passage, how would you make it known that you have won a scholarship to Harvard?
    A．Arranging for a social gathering to celebrate it.
    B．Informing your teachers who may help you spread.
    C．Telling your parents before posting it on your blog.
    D．Sending everyone a message privately to share it.

    It’s such a shame to lose a free throw. Playing in the court has pressure from the opponent, time, your teammates, the audience, and yourself. You have to shoot the ball despite all the pressures around. But with a free throw, you have the ball, no one will try to get it from you, and you have all the time to shoot the ball. But why is it that many players, even good shooters, miss most of their free throws? Maybe they need more practice or maybe they need to apply more ways to improve their free throw.
    Improve your player or your free throwing skills by following the tips below:
    Make it personal. The truth is, there is no rule on how one should handle and throw the ball in a free throw. What matters is that the player should shoot the ball from the free throw line no matter how he does it. So when trying to improve your free throw shooting, better stick to what works the best for you. Do not copy other people’s techniques. Make it your own and leave those techniques as theirs.
    Formulate (公式化) a repetitive way of shooting the ball. A free throw should be personalized. But it should also be repetitive. You should be able to repeat your free throw techniques whether you are in your court or in another court, whether you are energized or tired. You can’t say you have a personal free throw technique if you can’t repeat it over and over again.
    Shoot at the same position and distance for every free throw. Basketball courts may be located in different places or maybe marked with different paint colors. But all of these courts maintain the same distance from the ring to the free throw line. Familiarize your perfect position when making your free throws. That should help you do your perfect throw.
    小题1:Why do so many players fail to make a successful free throw?
    A．Because they don’t have any special skills
    B．Because they are lacking in practice and tips.
    C．Because they are not so familiar with rules
    D．Because many of them are green hands.
    小题2:What can you do if you want to be a wonderful free thrower?
    A．Learn from others.
    B．Form your own throwing skills.
    C．Keep active in the court.
    D．Learn to throw in different locations.
    小题3:The underlined word “ring” in the last paragraph may most probably mean “________”.
    A．soundB．basketC．ballD．group
    小题4:Which of the following might serve as the best title of the above passage?
    A．How to play basketball successfully in the court.
    B．How to improve your basketball throw skills.
    C．How to gain more points in throwing.
    D．How to improve your basketball free throwing.

    Sometimes ideas do not appear when you are concentrating your attention and mysteriously appear when you are not. Modern science recognizes this as a result of incubating (酝酿) the problem in your subconscious (潜意识) yet can't account for why it occurs.
    When you quit thinking about a subject and decide to forget it, your subconscious mind doesn't quit working. Your thoughts keep making associations. This is why you're experienced suddenly remembering names, getting solutions to problems you've forgotten about, and ideas out of the blue when you're relaxing and not thinking about any particular thing.
    You may try solving a problem with your subconscious mind by writing a letter to it. The letter should read just like a letter you would send to a real person. Seal the letter and put it away.
    Let go of the problem. Don't work on it. Forget it. Do something else. This is the incubation stage when much of what goes on occurs outside your focused awareness, in your unconscious. Open the letter in two days. The answer might magically pop into your mind.
    An advertising agency was under pressure to come up with a marketing campaign to introduce new television shows. Bob, the creative director, wrote the following letter which he addressed to his subconscious mind. He called his subconscious mind "Secret Expert".
    Secret Expert,
    I need to come up with a new marketing program to introduce a new season of TV shows. I'm interested in coming up with some kind of campaign that will capture the audience's attention more than one time. Is there something people need that we can advertise on? What kind of products, foods and services should we investigate? I need a fresh approach to advertising. Your mission is to give me a new idea on how to advertise TV shows.
    Thanks, Bob
    Bob mailed the letter to himself and when he read what he had written, he got his brainstorm, which was to advertise on "eggs". Somehow an association between "foods", "need", and "fresh" approach" inspired the thought of using "fresh eggs to advertise". He arranged to place laser imprints of the slogans for the TV shows on eggs —some thirty million.
    The consumers look at a single egg at least a few times, when they buy the eggs at the store, when they transfer them to the refrigerator, and when they crack them open. It's unlike any other ad medium in the world, because you're looking at it while you're using it.
    小题1:You remember names when you're not thinking about them because your subconscious mind ____.
    A．is still workingB．is full of names
    C．stops workingD．improves your memory
    小题2:Which of the following was included in Bob's letter to his subconscious mind?
    A．How the solution could be found.
    B．When he would need its help.
    C．What product could be advertised
    D．What he wanted it to do
    小题3:During the incubation stage, your focused awareness _____.
    A．waits for an answerB．controls your thoughts
    C．doesn't workD．helps your unconscious
    小题4: In what way did the ad on eggs help?
    A．It helped Bob to get a brainstorm
    B．It made the TV shows known to people repeatedly.
    C．It greatly increased the sales of eggs.
    D．It made sure consumers could get fresh eggs.
    小题5:Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
    A．Difference between Subconscious and Awareness
    B．A fresh Approach to Advertising
    C．Communicating with Your Subconscious Mind
    D．Solving problems with your Subconscious Mind

    Imagine that Mom and Dad have friends over, and you have to talk to adults all evening. Say the       thing and the parents might get mad. But, say      ,  and they’ll think you weren’t friendly. So,     can you talk with adults?
    It’s __ __. Just ask them questions about themselves. “Many of them like to talk about what they do for a living,” suggests psychologist Tim Ursiny.
    Kids can also talk to grown-ups about     . Ask what the last good movie they saw was, because people at dinner parties “     ” when the conversation turns to movies, Ursiny says. If a grown-up is     Harry Potter, it’s OK to talk about your love for Harry. It’s a(n)    __ topic, one that both grown-ups and kids can enjoy, so       and talk about whether Dumbledore is really dead.
    But       the topic of video games. “Adults don’t want to hear about your video game      they play it,” Ursiny explains.
    Adults also don’t want to hear slang(俚语). Don’t use language they don’t      . Ursiny says kids should learn to speak to other people in their own language.
         most adults aren’t into slang, they do remember what it was like to be a kid. Ursiny recommends asking adults what __ __ was like when they were your age. “It might be a fun discussion if you       your 10th-grade experience with theirs.”       you chat with your parents in advance to find out which topics are off-limits (禁区).
    Also, don’t chat about the things that make your parents feel guilty. Don’t mention        stuff such as how Dad has been sleeping on the couch, Ursiny says. And don’t complain that Mom has been late preparing breakfast.
         , Ursiny says, kids should try to put themselves in their parents’      . Learning how to      that type of understanding might help you out in the future. “The most successful people can develop a sympathetic feeling for others,” he says.

    Is veg food healthier than non-veg food? I feel this is a very common topic that people speak on．Please give me your opinions on this topic．
    Rao
    12-18-08
    		So far as veg food is concerned, it is also proved to be a healthy and nutritious diet, but has very few items which can provide us with proteins, but if you see non-veg food like eggs, chicken, and many more, such foods have a large content of proteins in them.
    Sai
    12-19-08
    		Man basically is herbivorous（食草的）. If we look at the animal kingdom
    We can see that all the herbivorous animals have the similar dental（牙齿的）
    structure, which clearly shows that the human being also ought to be vegetarian by birth. It is only the living conditions that make man carnivorous（食肉的）.
    The vegetarian foods are easily digestible.
    Santos
    12-20-08
    		Non-veg food items are better than veg items. A healthy person requires complete diet and veg + meat makes the diet complete. The only caution that needs to be taken is not to have non-veg items on a daily basis. Once in a week or couple of weeks will be best.
    Krishna
    01-03-09
    		When we eat non-veg, we are all veg by nature. The chicken that we eat feeds on grains, the mutton that we eat feeds on grass, and the fish that we eat feeds on simple plants. So non-veg food by logic（逻辑）is better and suited for hauman beings.
    Khan
    01-05-09
    		Non-veg food is equally important in our diet as it helps in many ways, especially fish and other seafood as fish contains omega 3 which makes our immune system（免疫系统）stronger. Do you know that most of the veg food put together does not contain as much omega 3 as fish alone contains!
    小题1:According to Rao, what is the problem with veg food?
    A．It damages our immune system.B．It has few nutrients.
    C．It contains too much omega 3.D．It is lacking in protein.
    小题2:In the opinion of Sai, humans are born vegetarian because humans        .
    A．have the same teeth structure as plant-eating animals
    B．believe that veg foods are good for their teeth
    C．belong to the plant-eating animal family
    D．can adapt to the living conditions like plant-eating animals
    小题3:What advice is given by Santos?
    A．To have a daily veg + meat diet.
    B．Not to eat non-veg food every day.
    C．To eat digestible food every day.
    D．Not to eat food without protein.
