    Mother’s Day is a holiday for mothers. It is celebrated(庆祝)in the United States, England, India and some other countries. In a short time, it becomes widely celebrated. Mother’s day falls on the second Sunday in May. On that day, many people send gifts(礼物)of love to their mothers.

    In China, people do the same on the day for mothers. And, in some cities, people sometimes ask a song to be broadcast(广播) for his or her mother only. This might cost a little money for some of them, but, as it is said, “Love is invaluable.”
    On May 8, 1999, just the day before the Mother’s Day that year, a Chinese mother was killed in criminal bombing(罪恶轰炸). Her name is Shao Yanhuan, a heroic mother. All the Chinese will remember her forever.

    After lunch,I walked back home. I was just to cross the street when I heard the sound of a coin dropping. It wasn’t much but,as I turned, my eyes caught the heads of several other people turning too. A woman had dropped what appeared to be a dime.
    The tinkling sound of a coin dropping on pavement is an attention-getter．It Can be nothing more than a penny．Whatever the coin is，no one ignores the sound of it．It got me thinking about sounds again．We are surrounded by so many sounds that attract the most attention．
    People in New York City seldom turn to look when a fire engine，a police car or an ambulance comes screaming along the street．When I’m in New York，I’m a New Yorker．I don’t turn either．Like the natives，I hardly hear a siren(警报)there．
    However，at home in my little town in Connecticut，it’s different．The distant sound of a police car, all emergency vehicle or a fire siren brings me to my feet if I’m seated and brings me to the window if I’m in bed．It’s the quietest sounds that have most effect on us．not the loudest．In the middle of the night, I can hear a dripping tap a hundred yards away thigh three closed doors．I’ve been hearing little creaking noises and sounds which my imaginnation turns into footsteps in the middle of the night for twenty-five years in our house．How come I never hear those sounds in the daytime?
    I’m quite clear in my mind what the good sounds are and what the bad sounds are,I’ve turned against whistling，for instance：I used to think of it as the mark of a happy worker but lately I’ve been associating the whistler with a nervous person making unconscious noises．The tapping，tapping，tapping of my typewriter as the keys hit the paper is a lovely sound to me．I often like the sound of what I write better than the looks of it．
    小题1:The sound of a coin dropping makes people________
    A．think of moneyB．look at each other
    C．pay attention to itD．stop crossing the street
    小题2:The author dislikes whistling because__________
    A．he has got tired of itB．it reminds him of tense people
    C．he used to be happierD．he doesn’t like workers
    小题3:What kind of sound does the author find pleasant?
    A．Tapping sound of his typewriter．B．Clinking sound of keys
    C．Tinkling sound of a coin dropping．D．Creaking sound of footsteps
    小题4:How does the author feel about sounds in general?
    A．They make him feel al home．B．He thinks they should be ignored
    C．He prefers silence to loud noises．D．He believes they are part of our life

    Aggressive pedestrians are in fact as dangerous as careless drivers. They cause traffic accidents, injury and death.
    These dangerous walkers can be seen in any big city all over the world. About 69% of last year’s pedestrian deaths in the US occurred in urban areas. They cross streets ignoring “DON’T WALK” signals, suddenly appear without warning from behind parked vehicles, walk slowly at crossroads with cell phones attached to heads, blocking traffic.
    These pedestrians and drivers share a common disregard for the rules of the road, both for selfish reasons. The drivers believe in the power of their machines. If their machines can go faster, they believe they have the right to go faster. If their machines are bigger, they believe they have the right to push smaller vehicles aside. Aggressive pedestrians, on the other hand, believe in the primacy(首位) of the individual, the idea that they are first in any environment, under any circumstances, even when they are on foot in a roaring tide of steel and rubber.
    Last year, an estimated 5,220 pedestrians died in traffic accidents. Some 69,000 pedestrians were injured. On average, that worked out to one pedestrian killed in a traffic crash every 101 minutes, and one injured every eight minutes.
    The good news is that the accident rate is dropping. For example, the number of pedestrians killed last year was 24 percent less than the number killed in traffic accidents a decade earlier. The bad news is that the basic causes of pedestrian deaths remain pretty much the same----disregard for traffic signals, inattention and crossing roads under the influence of alcohol and drugs. Alcohol, in fact, was involved in 46 percent of the traffic accidents that resulted in pedestrian deaths. Of those, 31 percent of the pedestrians were found to be drunk.
    The bottom line is that the pedestrians must do more to protect their lives as well as the lives of other road users. They can start by obeying traffic signals, using marked cross-walks and calling a cab when they’ve had too much to drink.
    小题1:The passage is mainly about _____.
    A．how aggressive pedestrians cause traffic accidents
    B．why so many Americans were killed on roads last year
    C．what the traffic rules of the road about pedestrians were
    D．who are to blame for pedestrian deaths, drunk drivers or the aggressive pedestrians
    小题2:What is the pedestrians’ selfish reason for traffic jams?
    A．They know all drivers are skilled and with great care.
    B．They believe individuals are always first.
    C．They think traffic rules have nothing to do with them.
    D．They guess all vehicles will slow down at crossroads.
    小题3: What was NOT the basic cause of pedestrian deaths in the US a decade ago?
    A．Disregard for traffic signalsB．Paying no attention to surroundings.
    C．Crossing roads drunk.D．Overspeeding driving.
    小题4:What word can best describe the author’s attitude to the traffic accidents caused by pedestrians?
    A．Excited.B．Cold.C．ConcernedD．Unconnected.

    One thing the tour books don’t tell you about London is that 2,000 of its residents are foxes. As native as the royal family, they fled the city about centuries ago after developers and pollution moved in. But now that the environment is cleaner, the foxes have come home, one of the many wild animals that have moved into urban areas around the world.
    Several changes have brought wild animals to the cities. Foremost is that air and water quality in many cities has improved as a result of the 1970s pollution-control efforts. Meanwhile, rural areas have been built up, leaving many animals on the edges of suburbs. In addition, urban wildlife refuges (避难处) have been created. The Greater London Council last year spent $750, 000 to buy land and build 10 permanent wildlife refuges in the city. Over 1,000 volunteers have donated money and cleared rubble from abandoned spots. One evening last year a fox was seen on Westminster Bridge looking up at Big Ben.
    　　For peregrine falcons (游隼), cities are actually safer than rural cliff dwellings (悬崖栖息地). By 1970 the birds had died out east of the Mississippi because the DDT had made their eggs too thin to support life. That year, scientist Tom Cade of Cornell University began raising the birds for release in cities, for cities afforded abundant food.
    　　Cities can attract wild animals without turning them harmful. The trick is to create habitats where they can be self-sufficient but still be seen and appreciated. Such habitats can even be functional. In San Francisco, the local government is testing different kinds of rainwater control basins to see not only which ones retain (保持) the cleanest water but which will attract the most birds.
    小题1:The first paragraph suggests that ________.
    A．environment is the key to wildlife
    B．tour books are not always a reliable source of information
    C．London is a city of fox
    D．foxes are highly adaptable to environment
    小题2:Which of the following is NOT a reason that wildlife is returning to the cities?
    A．Food is plentiful in the cities.
    B．Wildlife is appreciated in the cities.
    C．Wildlife refuges have been built in the cities.
    D．Air and water quality has improved in the cities.
    小题3:It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
    A．Londoners are putting more and more wild animals into their zoos
    B．Londoners are happy to see wild animals return to their city
    C．Londoners are trying to move wild animals back to the countryside
    D．Londoners have welcomed the wild birds, but found foxes a problem
    小题4:What is the passage mainly about?
    A．Wildlife returning to large cities.
    B．Foxes returning to London.
    C．Wild animals living in zoos.
    D．A survey of wildlife in New York.

    Hanukkah
    Hanukkah (光明节) is a Jewish festival. It is celebrated on the 25th day of the Jewish month of Kislev (犹太教历), which is usually sometime in December. It is often called the festival of lights. The festival celebrates the time, over 2,000 years ago, when the Jewish people fought against an emperor who would not let them follow their own traditions and religion. When the Jewish people won back their temple in Jerusalem, they found there was only enough holy oil to keep the sacred light burning for one day. However, to their surprise, this small amount of oil kept the light burning for eight days and nights, until the people had time to make more oil.
    At the center of the Hanukkah celebrations is a candlestick (called a Menorah) that holds nine candles. On the first night of Hanukkah the first candle is lit, and each day this candle is used to light another candle, until on the eighth day, the last day, all the candles are lit. During Hanukkah, people go to the synagogue (犹太教堂) to pray and to remember the miracle (奇迹) of the holy oil. Hanukkah is a time for family and friends to come together. People exchange gifts and greeting cards, and children go to parties. Parents often give their children money at Hanukkah. Potato cakes, called latkes, are a traditional Hanukkah food.
    小题1:For how many days does Hanukkah last?
    A．7B．10C．9D．8
    小题2:According to the passage, what is necessary when celebrating Hanukkah nowadays?
    A． Candles. B．Money.C．OilD．Cards.
    小题3:What does the Menorah remind Jewish people about?
    A．The war that they fought 2,000 years ago.
    B．The God that they honored best.
    C．The miracle of the holy oil that happened 2,000 years ago.
    D．The church they built 2,000 years ago.
    小题4:The passage mainly tells us about _____.
    A．the history of Hanukkah and how it is celebrated
    B．why Jewish people celebrate Hanukkah
    C．why Jewish people protect their traditions
    D．the miracle of the holy oil in the Jewish temple

    The evidence for harmony （ 和谐）may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly-held image(形象) of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.
    An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past. "We were surprised by just how positive today's young people seem to be about their families," said one member of the research team. "They're expected to be rebellious(叛逆的) and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There's more negotiation(商议) and discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don't want to rock the boat."
    So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends. "My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me," says 17-years-old Daniel Lazall. " I always tell them when I'm going out clubbing. As long as they know what I'm doing, they're fine with it." Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees. "Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I'd done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that."
    Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments, "Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over."
    小题1:According to the author, teenage rebellion ________.
    A．resulted from changes in families
    B．is common nowadays
    C．may be a false belief
    D．existed only in the 1960s
    小题2:What is the passage mainly about?
    A．Education in family
    B．Harmony in family
    C．Teenage trouble in family
    D．Negotiation in family
    小题3:The study shows that teenagers don't want to ________.
    A．go boating with their family
    B．share family responsibility
    C．make family decisions
    D．cause trouble in their families
    小题4:Compared with parents of 30 years ago, today's parents ________.
    A．care less about their children's life
    B．go to clubs more often with their children
    C．give their children more freedom
    D．are much stricter with their children

    Earlier, in the old days, women used to sit at home separated from the outside world. They used to manage the home and look after children. They were free of the responsibility of earning money to support the family, which was left to men.
    With the coming of industrialization (工业化) and technological development, the lifestyles of human beings started to change. The needs of human beings started to grow. In this process, women slowly started to move outside the home. Women received the same education as men. Gradually, women slowly started to think independently and participated equally with men in all fields of life, including politics, sports and even military.
    With changing environments, the role of women has become more important in society. To match today’s standard of living, it is necessary for both men and women to support the family.
    Today, women have been given bigger roles to play in society. They are even taking more responsibility than men. At first, men disagreed with women pursuing (追求) their careers outside the home. However, with growing needs and a shortage of money, they had no other way but to accept the reality.
    The financial contributions from women to their families have increased, but in some places, the home is still managed only by women as in the past. It is a challenging task for women to manage both. Women are bearing the stress and suffering mental difficulties with both managing the home and pursuing their careers.
    小题1:The best title for the passage would be _________.
    A．Women's Responsibility in SocietyB．The Changing Social Environments
    C．The Changing Role of Women in SocietyD．Women's Financial Contributions
    小题2:Earlier in the old days, women used to do the following EXCEPT _________.
    A．wash clothesB．prepare dinners
    C．look after childrenD．make money for the family
    小题3:We can infer from the last paragraph that ______.
    A．women don't need to manage the home today
    B．women are taking more responsibility than before
    C．men still disagree with women pursuing their careers
    D．men have begun to do more housework than women

    My own experiment with culture shock came to a fruitless end when I returned with homesick from a year’s study in Italy. I had never heard of culture shock. All I knew was that I was unhappy and wanted to go home.
    That was twenty years ago, and since then culture shock has become a real field of study. It is now understood that any normal person, finding him or herself for an extended time in a new culture, is in for trouble.
    The process of “culture shock” is now recognized as so predictable that its four stages have been noticeable. The first is the honeymoon stage, familiar to those of us who love to travel, but never stay in one place long enough to find out what follows. In this stage, the new country and its people seem delightful. Everything is better than home. Everything is so different and charming.
    Then the bloom comes off the rose. Now the people start to look shallow, selfish and stupid. The different ways of doing things don’t seem interesting any more. You start to feel tired all the time. Culture shock has set in. You feel at sea.
    The emotional response to culture shock in stage two can be extreme. Confusion, depression and anxiety, and resentment can all enter to varying degrees. You may become physically ill. Little things seem terribly annoying.
    The happier resolution is to move on to stage three. Adjusting. Rather than itemizing（列举） what’s “wrong” with Americans, you remind yourself that “right” and “wrong” are not meaningful terms in cultural matters.
    Instead, you try to understand what motivates Americans, perhaps realizing that many of the things you don’t like are related to the things you do like.
    As time goes on, you should be moving into stage four. Acceptance. At this point, you simply don’t think any more about the specialties of Americans. You accept them as individuals. You have started to feel at home; you know how to do things. You have not rejected your old culture; but the American ways have settled upon you. You feel optimistic about your future here. You have truly arrived.
