【题目】Sometimes you just want to get away. Your older brother and his friends are constantly camped in front of the TV, your baby sister won't stay out of your room, and you want some time for yourself.
But when you get it — maybe at a friend's house for an all-weekend DVD marathon or on spring break at Disney World — you're surprised to find yourself missing the chaos(混乱) at home a bit.
What's that all about? _____【1】____ _
When you're homesick, you might feel nostalgic(怀念的)for familiar things like your family, friends, pets, house, or neighborhood. Homesickness isn't only for kids. __【2】___ Teens might get homesick when they leave home for the first extended period of time, like during a vacation with a friend's family.
Familiar surroundings, people, and routines provide people with a sense of security and comfort. _____【3】_____ Those homesick feelings are completely normal.
【4】 Others may feel physical symptoms, like stomachache or headache, or even become truly depressed. Most of the time, once the new surroundings and people become more familiar, feelings of homesickness go away. If you have additional stress in your life — like a divorce or a death in the family — homesickness can be more intense(强烈的).
Almost everyone has felt homesick at some time. __ 【5】 It means you have family and friends worth missing and a place you want to return to when your adventure away from home is over.
A. Believe it or not, you’re feeling homesick.

C. Luckily, homesickness is usually mild and doesn’t last long.

【1】A 考查对上下文语境的理解。空后的意思是:当你思乡时,你就会想念你的家人,朋友,房子等等。所以这里选A(信不信由你,你在思乡。)与上下文一致。
【2】F 考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是:思乡不仅仅是对于孩子而言的;空后的意思是:当青少年第一次离家很长时间后,他们也会思乡。所以这里选F(事实上每一个人都会时不时的思乡,甚至是成年人也一样。)与上下文一致。
【3】G 考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是:熟悉的环境、人们和惯例能提供给人们一种安全感和慰藉。空后的意思是:那些思乡的情感是完全正常的。所以这里选G(在一个新的地方你可能会觉得你自己失去了家的舒服感和爱的人。)与上下文一致。

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
They Just Can't Help It
My theory is that the female brain is mainly built for empathy — the ability to understand other people — and that the male brain is mainly built for building systems. _【1】_ For example, women are more likely to read magazines on fashion and parenting, while men will choose magazines that feature computers and sport.
You may think that these preferences are influenced by the way people are taught to behave when they are growing up. However, this is not the case.
A new study carried out at Cambridge University shows that newborn girls look longer at a face, and newborn boys look longer at a mobile. _【2】__ It has also been observed (that girls are better at noticing signs of changes in other people's feelings. Boys, however, seem to enjoy building toy towers and playing with toys which have clear functions. __【3】__ People whose jobs are in the construction industries are almost male. Math and engineering, which require high levels of systems-thinking, are also male-chosen disciplines.
Why do men and women have the difference? Actually women have four times as many brain neurons (神经) that connect the right and left part of their brains. Because of it, women have a better ability to multitask than men.
__【4】__ Men tend to focus on a limited number of problems at a time. They will separate themselves from problems and view tasks as independent from one another.
Some people may worry that I am suggesting one gender (性别) is better than the other, but this is not the case. My theory says that males and females differ in the kinds of things that they find easy, but that both genders have their strengths and weaknesses. __【5】__ It is not true. The study simply looks at males and females as two groups, and asks what differences exist, and why they are there.
A. Generally speaking, there are clear differences.
B. Their preference for building systems may change over time.
C. You can see the same kind of pattern in the adult workplace.
D. They will consider many sources of information at the same time.
E. It is important to stress that the female brain may be built more for empathy.
F. That suggests certain differences between male and female brains are biological.
G. Others may think the theory creates a belief of what a particular type of person is like.

【题目】People around the world have their own ways of celebrating weddings. Now let’s compare Eastern and Western weddings.
Chinese and Indian brides normally wear red dresses and most of the wedding decorations are of the same color. This is because the color red is said to bring good fortune. In many Eastern weddings, especially Chinese weddings, the bride will change into a different dress after the ceremony. White dresses only arrived in modern times because of the influence of Western wedding dress designs.
Western wedding dresses are different. Brides usually wear a wedding dress that is white in color and wear it throughout the whole wedding. Wearing white wedding dresses is said to have started in the 1840s, beginning with Queen Victoria, Queen of Great Britain. There are occasions when brides dress into more comfortable clothing so that they will be able to move more freely during the wedding reception.
Traditional practices are strictly followed for most Western weddings. The couple follow up with any plans they have agreed and decided on to make their special wedding day unique and memorable. Wedding receptions and other celebrations differ among the East and the West, but the concept is still the same. They are held to show gratitude towards family members, friends and guests for being a part of the wedding ceremony.
Another common custom that weddings of the East and the West have is the wearing of the wedding veil(面纱). According to superstitious(迷信的) beliefs, the bride wears a veil to protect her from being seen by evil spirits and the bridesmaids are decoys(诱饵). This is still followed even today.
【1】Queen Victoria is said to be the first woman in Britain to ________.
A. have a bridesmaid
B. wear a veil as a bride
C. wear a white wedding dress
D. wear a casual dress for the reception
【2】According to superstitious beliefs, having bridesmaids is to ________.
A. protect guestsB. comfort brides
C. trick evil spiritsD. bring good fortune
【3】The passage is mainly developed ________.
A. by timeB. by spaceC. by process D. by comparison

【题目】A characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made man—the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and wins greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some kind.
This attitude toward manual (体力的) labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even expensively furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward; furthermore, the dinner will not consist just of something quickly and easily mixed from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. Instead, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional man may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a group of workers on the highway in order to pay for his education.
【1】From Paragraph 1, we know that in America ________.
A. people feel painful to mention their fathers as laborers
B. people tend to have a high opinion of the self-made man
C. people can always rise to the top through their own efforts
D. college professors win great respect from common workers
【2】According to the passage, the hostess cooks dinner herself mainly because ________.
A. she can hardly afford servants
B. servants in America are hard to get
C. she takes pride in what she can do herself
D. it is easy to prepare a meal with canned food
【3】The expression “wait on table” in the second paragraph means “________”.
A. wait to place the table
B. keep accounts for a bar
C. work in a furniture shop
D. serve customers in a restaurant
【4】Which of the following may serve as the best title of the passage?
A. A Respectable Self-made Family.
B. The Development of Manual Labor.
C. Characteristics of American Culture.
D. American Attitude Toward Manual Labor.
