    2．When Russell Lyons volunteered for the first time，he read Goodnight Moon to a class of San Diego preschoolers．And it wasn't reading-he'd memorized the book and was reciting it out loud．He was 4．Still，he said it felt good up there，in front of the other kids，lending a hand．He wanted more of that feeling．
    Thirteen years later，he's getting a lot of it．He's on a five-month road trip across America-not sightseeing，but volunteering．
    The University City resident has spent time at an animal reserve in Utah，a women's shelter in St．Louis，a soup kitchen in New York，a retirement home in Tucson．This week he's in Los Angeles，at a program that supports disabled youth．
    "I just like helping people and feeling that something I do is making a difference，"he said．He resists the idea that his"Do Good Adventure"is all that unusual．It bothers him that the media often describes young people as lazy，self-centered and materialistic．So he sees his trip as a chance to make a statement，too．"About 55percent of teens do volunteer work，higher than the rate of adults，"he said，according to a 2002study．"Not everybody knows that．"
    Of course，some teens do volunteer work because it looks impressive on their college applications．Lyons said he mentioned his trip on his submissions．But charity work is a habit with him．Even before the cross country trip，he was volunteering abut 200hours a year at various places．He's made sandwiches for homeless families in Washington D．C..He's taught math to fifth-graders in Cuernavaca，Mexico．
    He gets some of that drive from his mother，Leslye Lyons，who has been involved in nonprofits for much of her life．She was there when her son"read"to the preschoolers-a memory of hers"that will never go away．"

    56．What did Russell Lyons think of his first volunteering？C
    A．Creative．    B．Persuasive．
    C．Impressive．  D．Imaginative．
    57．The third paragraph is meant toA．
    A．indicate Russell Lyons is working as a volunteer
    B．introduce some tourist attractions across America
    C．appeal to volunteers to offer help to those in need
    D．show volunteers are needed in all parts of America
    58．According to Paragraph 4，Russell Lyons is against the idea thatC．
    A．what he has done is common
    B．most teens do volunteer work
    C．young people don't work hard
    D．adults prefer to be volunteers
    59．Russell Lyons has been doing volunteer work becauseB．
    A．it is necessary for college applications
    B．it has become a natural part of his life
    C．he likes the feeling of being praised
    D．he ought to keep his promise to Mom．

    6．America's greatest technological achievement，the Hoover Dam，now has a companion piece，a bridge held up by the longest arch in the Western Hemisphere（半球）．The Mike O'Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge，which opened this month and connects the U．S．states of Arizona and Nevada，crosses the vast chasm（峡谷）890 feet above the Colorado River that is controlled by the dam．
    The striking 1，900-foot-long structure will improve traffic in the region and help protect the dam from being destroyed．It is the seventh highest bridge in the world，behind four in China，one in Papua New Guinea and one in the US state of Colorado．
    "The Hoover Dam is the greatest civil engineering achievement in America's history，"said the bridge project manager Dave Zanatell．"Our goal was not to outdo or outshine it．Our goal was to，in a respectful way，do something that would be great for our generation and that would stand besides Hoover Dam in a respectful and quality way that would become a part of Hoover's legacy（遗产）．"
    Just as the Hoover Dam was built in the heart of the Great Depression（大萧条）and was seen as an example of the nation's can-do spirit，some hope this project can also provide some uplift．
    The bridge is surprising：at 1，050 feet，its support arch holds up a roadway that lies on 300-foot-long concrete pillars（柱子），some of the tallest in the world．It contains 16 million pounds of steel．
    　　The idea of the bridge came into being in the 1960s because the top of the Hoover Dam has been a narrow two-lane road that is the fastest route from Arizona to Las Vegas and then the Pacific Northwest and Canada．
      　Access to the dam from each direction is a dangerously winding route，but massive trucks and passenger vehicles shared it for decades．During the day，when thousands of tourists travel to the dam from Las Vegas three times as many accidents as on a normal road will happen．
      　The bridge has a sidewalk on the side facing the dam．The wall on both sides is 54 inches high，so walkers can take photos there．
    64．Which of the following is true of the Hoover Dam？B
    A．It was completed recently．
    B．It was built during the hard times．
    C．It has the longest arch．
    D．It's the seventh highest dam in the world．
    65．What is one of the purposes of building the bridge？A
    A．To protect the dam
    B．To save the cultures．
    C．To outdo the dam
    D．To develop the tourism．
    66．The underlined word"uplift"in Paragraph 4 meansC．
    A．lift of the heavy object             
    B．support in money
    C．spiritual encouragement              
    D．instruction in technology
    67．Which of the followings shows the right position of the bridge and dam？A

    68．The text is mainly aboutD．
    A．the Hoover Dam                       
    B．American western development
    C．a tour along the Colorado River          
    D．a recently built bridge．

    4．Like international travelers anywhere，foreigners visiting the United States from other countries can be confused by some of what they encounter．Fortunately，their fellow travelers have plenty of advice．Here are some specially good travel advice from around the world．
    From Italy：
    Tipping is filled with misunderstanding．Q．Is it true that I have to"force"to tip at all？A．It is not mandatory to tip，however，it is strongly recommended，because in many cases it is the only entry of workers．Generally in a restaurant，in the cab，and in many places where there is a service tip is 15%．Since the bill that will explain you exactly the city tax of 8.875%，is sufficient to double that sum，without bothering to do the calculations．In the hotel you leave two dollars per day per person cleaning．Obviously you do not leave tips in places like McDonalds or Starbucks．
    From China：
    Americans love to follow rules，even when no one is looking．"Americans are such strict rule followers．I witnessed this once sitting on the sidelines of a high school dodge ball game．To me，it was ridiculous，a little violent，and very American．It struck me that my classmates followed the rules of the game so strictly．Even when no one noticed that a person had been hit and he could have kept playing，he voluntarily gave himself up and left the game．I was deeply impressed by how much people honored the rules even when they are not seen．"
    From Russia：
    Gifts are not a big deal．And did you know bribery （行贿） was illegal？"Gifts：Americans do not expect them．On the contrary，an unexpected gift while conducting business can put an American in an awkward position．Such things for Americans suggest exchange of commercial．
    Business gifts in the U．S．are not acceptable．Moreover，they often cause suspicion．Americans fear that they could be interpreted as a bribe，and in the United States that is strictly punishable by law．"
    From Japan：
    Nobody is impressed by how much you can drink．"In the U．S．，they do not have a sense of pride if they drink a large amount．Rather，if you drink a lot，there is a sense that you cannot manage yourself，and you can lose respect from those around you．Being drunk doesn't excuse your actions，and to drink alcohol habitually is a sign of alcoholism．Alcoholics are seen as mentally weak，and are avoided by society due to their inability to have self control．"

    46．What does the passage mainly tell about？B
    A．Cultural diversity．
    B．Cultural differences．
    C．Cultural revolution．
    D．Cultural construction．
    47．Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word"mandatory"in Para.3？A
    A．Required．
    B．Forbidden．
    C．Permitted．
    D．Arranged．
    48．According to the passage，what are Americans most likely to do？D
    A．Tipping everywhere．
    B．Sending a surprising business present．
    C．Drinking a lot．
    D．Obeying the game rules．
    49．Which word do the international travelers probably use to describe Americans？B
    A．Confident．
    B．Self-disciplined．
    C．Selfless．
    D．Generous．
