    Modern life is impossible without travelling. The fastest way of travelling is by plane. With a modern airline you can travel in one day to places which it took a month or more to get to hundred years ago.
    Travelling by train is slower than by plane, but it has its advantages(便利). You can see the country you are travelling through. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining-cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable.
    Some people prefer to travel by sea when possible. There are large liners and river boats. You can visit many other countries and different parts of your country on them. Ships are not so fast as trains or planes, but travelling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.
    Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day, just as you like. You can stop wherever you wish where there is something interesting to see, at good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel to spend the night. That is why travelling by car is popular for pleasure trips, while people usually take a train or plane when they are travelling on business.
    小题1:From the passage, we know the fastest way of travelling is          .
    A．by trainB．by seaC．by planeD．by car

    Like most English children, I learned foreign languages at 36. When I made my first visit 37 the Unites States, I was 38 I could have a nice easy holiday without any 39 problem. But how 40 I was!
    At the American airport, I was looking for a public telephone to 41 my friend Jenny I had 41 . A worker asked if he could 43 me. “Yes,” I said. “I want to give my friend a ring.” “Well, that’s nice. Are you getting married?” he asked. “No,” I answered. “I just want to tell her 44 the phone I have arrived.” “Oh,” he said, “there is a 45 downstairs on the first floor.” “But we’re on the first floor now,” I said. “Well, I don’t know what you are 46 about. Maybe you aren’t feeling too well after your 47,” he said. “You just go and wash up, and you will feel a lot better.” And he went 48 , 49 me wondering where on earth I was: at home we wash up after a 50 to get the cups and plates clean. How can I wash up at an airport?
    At last we did 51. She 52 the misunderstanding(误会): American say “to give someone a 53 ”, but we English say “ to give someone a ring”. When we say “to wash your hands”, they say “to wash 54”. And Englishmen start numbering from the floor, so the 55 floor is the second for Americans.

    Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the 16 tuition(学费) for my brother and me. They don’t 17  in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. My father has a bad temper（脾气）; it’s easy for him to lose his temper.
    One day, my mother was sewing a quilt(缝被子). I 18 sat down beside her and looked at her.
    “Is there any 19  between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.My mother stopped her work and raised her head with  20  in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt. 21 at last I heard my mother say the following words:“Susan,” she said 22  , “Look at this thread（线）. Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable（耐用）. If life is a 23  , then love should be a thread. It can 24  be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is 25.
    I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next  26  . At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. After they were 27, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk 28 on the country road. My father had never been so 29 . Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun gently shone through the leaves. All of these 30  the most beautiful picture in the world. The doctor had said my father would 31 in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk alone. We were all worried.
    “Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day. “Susan,” he said gently, “to tell you the truth, I just like 32  with your mom. I like this kind of life.” 33  his eyes, I knew he loved my mother deeply.
    Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this  34  , I understand that love is just a  35  in the quilt of out life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

    Smiling
    People smile at times. However, the meaning of a smile in different cultures may be different. Depending on different cultures, smiling can express joy and amusement, but it can also indicate embarrassment（苦恼）. The following examples show this point of view:
    In an attempt to be open and friendly, people in the United States smile a lot. Every one smiles at each other, this nonverbal communication shows being friendly in the United States. However，in China, smiling is not only an expression of happiness, but also a way to avoid being embarrassed. Chinese people like smiling when they are embarrassed in order to avoid embarrassment. Smiling is a kind of good will but not sneer（嘲笑）. For example: When a child falls off from a bike, the adults in China may smile, which is a kind of gentle encouragement and may not be a kind of impolite laugh.
    When a person from the United States might blush（脸红）with embarrassment or become offensive, a Chinese might blush with smile. To avoid serious misunderstanding, people who engage in intercultural communication should be able to understand the meaning of smiling appropriately. Related to the smile is the laugh. Also, different cultures have different meanings about laugh. For example, Americans can enjoy a very heartfelt belly (腹部) laugh that comes from the deepest emotions. However, most Chinese seldom laugh that way because they are thought to be silly except among close friends.
    小题1:We can use smile to express all of the following feelings except_________,

    A federal agency on Tuesday called for a ban on all cellphone use by drivers -- the most far-reaching recommendation up to now — saying its decision was based on a decade of investigations into distraction-related(与分散注意力有关的) accidents, as well as growing concerns that powerful mobile devices are giving drivers even more reasons to look away from the road.
    As part of its recommendation, the National Transportation Safety Board is urging states to ban drivers from using hands-free devices, including wireless headsets. No state now has made laws to ban such activity, but the Board said that drivers faced serious risks from talking on wireless headsets, just as they do by taking a hand off the wheel to hold a phone to their ears.
    However, the concern was heightened by increasingly powerful phones that people can use to send e-mails, watch movies and play games.
    "Every year, new devices are being on sale." she said. "People are attracted to update their Facebook page, to play music with cellphone, as if sitting at a desk. But they are driving a car."
    The agency based its recommendation on evidence from its investigation of numerous crashes in which electronic distraction was a major contributing factor.
    Ms. Hersman said she understood that this recommendation would be unwelcome in some circles, given the number of drivers who talk and text. But she compared distracted driving to drunken driving and even smoking, which required wholesale cultural shifts to change behavior.
    "It's going to be very unpopular with some people." she said. "We're not here to win a popularity contest. We're here to do the right thing. This is a difficult recommendation, but it's the right recommendation and it is time."
    The agency's recommendation is not required for states to adopt such a ban. And it won't likely be agreed upon by state lawmakers who are unwillingly to anger those who have grown accustomed to using their device behind the wheel.
    The ban also deserves attention because it is the first call by a federal agency to end the practice completely, rather than the partial ban that some lawmakers have put in place by allowing hands-free talking.
    小题1:The ban on all cellphone use by drivers was put forward______.
    A．after a long discussion and recommendation
    B．after about ten years' investigation in it
    C．because of the most powerful mobile devices
    D．for the reason of heading away from the road
    小题2:From the second paragraph we know that now______.
    A．it is legal to use wireless headsets while driving
    B．wireless headsets are illegal in some states
    C．it is safe to talk on wireless headsets while driving
    D．hands-free devices can be used in some states
    小题3:We can know from the passage that______.
    A．electronic distraction resulted in numerous crashes
    B．numerous crashes were caused by drunk driving
    C．electronic distraction contributed much to the ban
    D．the recommendation was based on electronic distraction
    小题4:Ms Hersman thinks that distracted driving, drunken driving and smoking______.
    A．are just common behaviorsB．can be shifted to behaviors
    C．are behaviors to be changedD．are just cultural behaviors
    小题5:Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
    A．Cellphone Ban inCarsB．Valuable Ban for Cellphones
    C．Drivers Ban CellphonesD．Cellphone Ban while Driving

    TV Shows and Long Bus Trips
    Long bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end— with ads thrown in every three or four minutes. The ads are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard appears outside the bus window.“Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.”“Drink Good’n Wet Root Beer.”“Fill up with Pacific Gas.” Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now!”
    The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed—new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly daring, the ride can be as exciting as a suspense(悬念) story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left-hand lane?After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.
    The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the arm rests—even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at the right time. There are just no more ways to sit.
    小题1:According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?
    A．Buses on the road.
    B．Films on television.
    C．Advertisements on billboards.
    D．Gas stations.
    小题2:What is the purpose of this passage?
    A．To talk about the similarities between long bus trips and TV shows.
    B．To persuade you to take a long bus trip.
    C．To display the differences between long bus trips and TV shows.
    D．To describe the billboards along the road.
    小题3:The writer of this passage would probably favor      
    A．bus drivers who weren’t caring.
    B．driving alone.
    C．a television set on the bus.
    D．no billboards along the road.
    小题4:The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because     
    A．the ads both on TV shows and on the billboards along the road are fun.
    B．they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with commercials in between.
    C．the drivers are always daring on TV shows just as they are on buses.
    D．both traveling and watching TV are not exciting.
    小题5:The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are   
    A．exciting.
    B．comfortable.
    C．tiring.
    D．boring.

    Children, especially at young ages, are very creative. And creativity can be a glorious thing. Look at all the amazing artists and architects that have created glorious pieces of history. Look at all the authors with the award winning books. Now I am not saying everyone is going to end up this way but creativity is an important part of growing up and becoming who you are. This should be encouraged in young children as well as the older children.
    Young children grow up playing with make-believe. And so many people try to make their young child see that their invisible friend isn’t real or that talking when someone is not in the room is weird. To adults it is, but for small children it is them being creative. May it be them playing house, or chef, or playing with stuffed animals, it is their creative part coming out. Some kids can have fun playing with rocks and sticks and it’s because of their creativeness that they can do this. The invisible friend part is another part of being imaginative, and is not a bad thing since they will grow out of that phase. So encourage this and play along with them, play house or stuffed animals or whatever they want to play. Help keep their imagination running. You can even make up games, like treasure hunts, dinosaurs, or super heroes; there is just so much you can choose from.
    For older children, talk to them. Help them see things through others’ eyes, or help them see things from a different point of view. Helping children see things from other views helps them keep their minds open for new ideas and new things.
    All this can help your children’s minds stay creative. The arts and music, even thoughts are an important part of life and important in our society. If we didn’t have and encourage creative thinking, we wouldn't have had inventors, or philosophers, or as I said before, artists.
    小题1:The underlined word “weird” is the closest in meaning to “_______”.
    A．similar B．strange C．commonD．natural
    小题2:If a child plays with his invisible friend, it shows that _______.
    A．the child is longing for friendship
    B．the child has no one to play with in life
    C．the child has great imagination
    D．there is something wrong with the child’s mind
    小题3:According to the author, if a child talks alone in a room, we should _______.
    A．let him be
    B．stop him from doing so
    C．give him some advice
    D．know that he is suffering from loneliness
    小题4:What is mainly talked about in the passage?
    A．How creative artists and architects can be.
    B．How to help children grow up in a healthy way.
    C．What kind of activities children like.
    D．How to protect and encourage children’s creativity.
