阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳答案。
This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers(young people aged from13~19)from all over the world will spend about ten months in U.S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.
Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.
“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”
At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize(批评)American schools,” he said. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”
This year ________teenagers will take part in the exchange programme between America and other countries.
twenty-three hundred
thirteen hundred
over three thousand
less than two thousand
The whole exchange programme is mainly to__________.
help teenagers in other countries know the real America
send students in America to travel in Germany
let students learn something about other countries
have teenagers learn new languages
Fred and Mike agree that__________.
America food tasted better than German food
German schools were harder than American schools
Americans and Germans were both friendly
There were more cars on the streets in America
What is particular in American schools is that________.
there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings
there are a lot of after-school activities
students usually take fourteen subjects in all
students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car

If you think American cooking means opening a package and throwing the contents into the microwave oven (微波炉), think again. On one hand, it’s true that many Americans have cold cereal ( 谷类食品 ) for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and instant dinners. From busy homemakers to working people, many Americans enjoy the convenience of fast food that can be ready to serve in 10 minutes or less. On the other hand, many Americans realize the importance of cooking skills. Parents-especially mothers-see the importance of training their children- especially daughters. Most Americans think that there’s nothing better than a good home-cooked meal. But with cooking, as with any other skill, good results don’t happen by accident.
Probably every cook has his or her own way of cooking. But there are some basic skills that most people follow. For example, baking is a main method of preparing food in America. For that reason, Americans would find it next to impossible to live without an oven. American cooks pay special attention to the balance of foods, too. In planning a big meal they try to include meat, a few vegetables, some bread and often a dessert. They also like to make sure the meal is colouful. Having several different colors of food on the plate usually makes for a healthy meal.
For those who need guidance in their cooking, or for those who have just run out of ideas, recipes are a great help. Recipes list all the ingredients for a dish ( generally in the order used ), the amount of each to use, and a description of how to put them together.
61.This passage mainly tells us that _______________.
A.Americans usually have fast food, but they pay special attention to cooking as well.
B.without an oven, Americans find it impossible to live conveniently.
C.Americans pay special attention to recipes and nutritious meals.
D.Americans like to have several different colors of food on the plate.
62.The underlined word “ convenience “ in the first paragraph means _______________.
A.the lower and acceptable price
B.being suitable to one’s comfort or needs.
C.The high quality and low price.
D.The unusual taste of the food.
63.Many Americans have cold cereal for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and instant dinner because ______________.
A.they like instant food very much
B.they don’t like cooking at all.
C.most American working people are busy and don’t have time to cook
D.fast food is delicious and it usually contains a lot of vitamins.
64.By saying “ But with cooking, as with any other skill, good results don’t happen by accident, the author means _____________.
A.good cooking doesn’t come easily; it needs a lot of practice
B.just like any other skill, cooking may bring good results
C.cooking comes from one’s gift, not through practice
D cooking can lead to accidents
65.From the passage, we know that _____________.
A.Americans don’t care about food
B.Americans are not good at cooking because they like to use recipes
C.an oven plays an important role in cooking for Americans
D.while cooking, Americans usually run out of ideas
