    阅读理解

    　　Do you want to see the pyramids in Egypt, the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the glaciers in Alaska－and never pay for a hotel room? In 2004, four 20-somethings started a website to help other people do just that．The site is CouchSurfing．com．

    　　The concept is simple．Log on to the CouchSurfing website, pick your destination and find somebody there who will allow you to sleep on their couch．You won’t have a hard time finding a host, says co-operator Daniel Hoffer．“ We have close to 200,000 members, and they are in more than 200 countries,” he says．

    　　On a recent visit to CouchSurfer Alex Fisher’s apartment in Manhattan, a typical CouchSurfing situation was seen：a small, one-bedroom apartment with a mat in the corner．This week, Fisher’s apartment is host to two young women from Toronto－Amanda Charrion and Silvia Yee．

    　　“It’s very good for the shoestring traveler,” Charrion says about her CouchSurfing experience．“It allows me to go out and visit new places and see new things where I don’t have to worry so much about the cost of everything．”

    　　Fisher is a perfect host, offering all her CouchSurfing guests maps and restaurant recommendations, “I just think helping people out is great,” she says of her motivation for hosting．

    　　But while it all sounds great, there are some questionable issues．You don’t really know too much about the person who is sleeping in the next room．And the only way to check out your host is by reading online reviews written by previous roommates．

    　　Yee, who loves her CouchSurfing experience, quotes their parents’ words about the host, “They might cut people into little pieces．But it hasn’t happened．”

    　　It hasn’t happened yet．Although the website claims that only 0.2 percent of the CouchSurfing experiences are negative, which might not be enough to convince everyone．

    (1)

    The website CouchSurfing．Com was set up by _________．

    [　　]

    A．

    a tour company

    B．

    four people in their twenties

    Alex Fisher

    who can’t afford to take expensive trips

    D．

    who have the courage to take an adventurous trip

    (3)

    Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?

    [　　]

    A．

    Yee’s parents were worried about her safety in a stranger’s house．

    B．

    Many CouchSurfing hosts take part for the purpose of making money．

    C．

    The writer was convinced of the safety of CouchSurfing．

    D．

    You can get reliable information about the hosts online．

    (4)

    What might be the best title for the text?

    [　　]

    A．

    CouchSurfing－a Newly-setup Popular Website

    B．

    Traveling Around the World in a Cheap Way

    C．

    CouchSurfing Causes Much Worry among People

    D．

    CouchSurfing－a New Way to Travel Cheaply

Kids and adults get into groups and play against each other in tennis, basketball or soccer. After everyone has played hard for a couple of hours, stop for a picnic and then if your family isn’t too tired, go back and play some more.
    Sunday
    Every child loves to play video games and there is no better time to allow kids to play them than on Sunday when no homework is due（应交的）.But don’t let them play a game that forces them to sit down for hours.

    Net Library Is a library that lends out digital books．It treats a digital like a paperback copy．It charges libraries per book per copy and gives publishers a cut of the total income．

           From the consumer's point of view, this means that if more than, say, five people want the latest Danielle Steel romance novel, other people who request that book will get a message saying the title can't be found．

           It's a model many publishers seem to have embraced．More than 350 gave the company rights to hand out their digital works and McGraw-Hill Corporation and Houghton Mifflin Corporation have put money in the company．The California public libraries and about 1,800 others across the US are trying out the Net Library service．

           Some librarians criticize the New Library model．Stanford University librarian Michael Keller argues that the company is creating an unnatural fear of digital woks; which is contrary to the ideas of the Internet．

           Keller and some other librarians argue for the e-book vision set forth by E-Brary．E-Brary is starting a service mat lets us users read books for free．

           But it will charge about 25 cents a page when a person tries to print out material or copy and paste it into a different file or tries to download copy onto a computer．

           Christopher Warnock, chief executive of E-Brary, believes most consumers won't want to buy entire books, only the parts that interest them．

           "There's not really a lot of good m owning an electronic file and having to store it and manage it．It doesn't make sense．" he said．

    1.How do publishers get money from the Net Library?

           A．They get money from selling their books to the Net Library.

           B．They share the money with the Net Library.

           C．They get money by cutting the cost of the books.

           D．They get the money from the readers.

    2.The underlined word "embraced" in the 3rd paragraph means _    ___.

           A．taken something willingly                 B．held something tightly

           C．disliked something badly                   D．tried out something hard

    3.From the 2nd paragraph we can see consumers       .

          A．don’t care if they are charged money

          B．enjoy the service of the Net Library

          C．don’t like other people borrowing books

          D．complain about the limited number of the new books

    4.What does the last paragraph mean?

          A．Net Library is not a good way for the consumers.

          B．There is no need for consumers to have a whole book.

          C．E-Brary is not a good library for the consumers.

          D．It’s reasonable to charge the consumers money for copying some pages.

    Every country has its different customs when visiting other people's homes for a dinner party. It's important to know these before visiting a foreign country, so that you can avoid making embarrassing mistakes. Three people from different countries explain how to behave at a dinner party there.

    Masako, Japan

    The first thing to remember when visiting a Japanese home for dinner is that you should always dress correctly, as if going to the office. Casual wear is not appropriate. When you meet someone in Japan you should always bow. A deep bow is suitable for someone older or senior to you, while a short bow is suitable for younger people or your peers. Remember to take off your shoes when you enter the house. Always take a gift when you visit a Japanese home. Your host will expect it. It is important to arrive on time, and certainly not more than five minutes late. Don't sit down at the table until your host tells you where to sit. When you have finished eating and drinking, return your chopsticks to the chopstick rest, and do not finish your glass. If you do so, your host will pour more into the glass.

    Mamadou, Senegal

    Don't be surprised if there are only men or only women at your table when you go out to dinner in Senegal. Men and women sometimes eat separately in nay country. Wait until your host tells you where to sit. We normally sit on the floor to eat. First, everyone washes their hands in a washing basin. When the food comes it will be placed in front of you, and at first you will be offered food from the dishes by your host. Later you can serve yourself from the dishes, but make sure you do not lean over the food. Take food from the part of the bowl closest to you. Try a little of everything. It is polite to do so. Please make sure your feet do not touch the mat on which the food is placed.

    Luis, Spain

    Spanish dinner parties are great fun. We often start late in the evening and don't get up to leave until the small hours of the morning. I think you will enjoy going out to dinner in Spain. Firstly, never arrive on time. Fifteen or twenty minutes late is normal. Shake hands with your host, smile and look him in the eye. If he offers you a cup of coffee, be sure to accept it. Not to do so would be to reject your host' s kindness. A gift is not necessary, but will be welcomed. Food is served on individual plates, western-style, and is eaten with a knife and fork. Keep your hands where others can see them during the meal, but don' t put your elbows on the table. When you have finished, put your knife and fork at an angle on the plate. Try to finish your food if you can!

    72. What is the purpose of the writer in writing this passage?

    A. To introduce some customs in foreign countries.

    B. To tell stories about three people at dinner parties.

    C. To avoid making embarrassing mistakes when dining abroad.

    D. To show the importance of cultural awareness when travelling abroad.

    73. From Masako's explanation, we can know that in Japan _________.

    A. young people bow not so deeply as older or senior people

    B. old people don't have to bow to young people

    C. young people do not bow deeply to those of the same age

    D. all people should bow deeply to each other when they meet

    74. Which of the following should a guest in Senegal do when the food is served?

    A. Wait until the host asks him/her to eat.                  B. Don't eat until the host helps him/her.

    C. Help himself/herself to anything he likes.              D. Eat up the food from the closest plate.

    75. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

    A. The Japanese sit on the floor and eat in front of a mat.

    B. The Senegalese sit on the floor and eat at a table.

    C. The Spanish sit at a table and eat with chopsticks.
