阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题。(请注意问题后的字数要求)

Just like the United States,Britain is divided into different areas. Britain is one of the most diverse nations in Europe with over 250 different languages being spoken in London alone. With such a various culture,adapting to it can be a challenge for anyone. Following these steps should be of great help to you.

Forget the stereotypes (成见). Many of the long formed stereotypes simply have nothing to do with Britain today. Don't think that everyone enjoys drinking tea or beer. Abandoning some old ideas of people and culture will allow you to be more open­-minded and easily get into the culture.

Understand the differences. Britain is made up of different areas that have their different tradi­tions and languages. Understanding different cul­tures will help you avoid making mistakes.

Get used to small spaces. The US is a huge country where people are used to bigger cars, houses and spaces .__________, Britain does not have the luxury of space. Houses,apartments and cars are all smaller than you are used to,so trying to become fa­miliar with smaller areas is very necessary.

Be polite. Always apologize for knocking in­to someone, even if it was their fault. Respect people's personal space and always wait in line. Bill Brysons' book Notes from a small island is filled with many useful tips.

Accept the jokes. One of the most confusing aspects of British culture is humor. Kidding,teasing,or "taking the mick" are all ways to describe making fun of someone but this isn't necessarily a bad thing. Playing tricks on someone is a common way to show affection. As Britons usually put it,"you never make fun of someone you don't like".

76.What's the best title of the passage? (no more than 6 words)

77.Complete the following statement with words from Paragraph 1.(no more than 2 words)Because of a different culture, it is a very difficult task for anyone to ______it.

Like many other small boys, I was fascinated by cars, not least because my oldest brother was a bit of a car guy and subscribed to cool magazines like Car and Driver and Motor Trend. Every so often, one of those magazines would run an article on the “Car of the Future”. They featured unconventional styling and things like small nuclear reactors as power sources. Yet, frankly, my car doesn’t do anything that my brother’s Studebaker didn’t do. It goes, it stops, it burns gasoline, it plays music. I still have to steer it, and it still runs into things if I don’t steer it carefully.

But guess what? All of these things are subject to change in the not-so-distant future. It will still go and stop, but it may not burn gasoline, I may not have to steer it, and it may be a lot better at not running into things.

Airbags aren't the be-all and end-all in safety. In fact, considering the recent news about people occasionally being killed by their airbags in low-speed collisions (碰撞),they obviously still need some development. But they aren't going away, and in fact, you can expect to see cars appearing with additional, side-impact airbags, something some European car manufacturers already offer.

Better than systems to minimize (使减少到最低限度) injury in the event of an accident, however, are systems that minimize the likelihood of an accident happening in the first place. Future cars may be able to eliminate many of the major causes of accidents, including drunk-driving, tailgating (与前车距离过近) and sleepiness. Cars could be equipped with sensors that can detect alcohol in a driver's system and prevent the car from being started, for example. Many accidents are caused by people following the car in front too closely. As early as next year, you'll be able to buy cars with radar-equipped control systems. If the radar determines you're closing too quickly with the car in front, it will ease up on the throttle (油门). For city streets, expect other radar devices that will give advance warning that the car in front of you has slowed abruptly (突然地) and you should step on the brakes-or that may even brake for you.

Will cars eventually be able to drive themselves? There's no reason to think it won't be technically possible, and Mercedes is working on a system that can brake, accelerate and steer a vehicle down a highway on its own. Nobody really expects people to give up all control to their cars, but such systems could be used as failsafe systems to keep cars on the road and bring them safely to a stop even if the driver suddenly became disabled.

71.Why was the author fascinated by cars?

A. Because other small boys liked to own a car of their own, too.

B. Because he read exotic things about cars in his brother's magazines.

C. Because his oldest brother loved to take him to places in his car.

D. Because he subscribed to cool car magazines.

72.By saying "my car doesn't do anything that my brother's Studebaker didn’t do", the author

means that_____.

A. my car is far better than my brother's

B. my car is not as good as my brother's

C. not much has changed in the performance of cars so far

D. much improvement has been made in the design of cars recently

73.Which of the following statements is true of airbags?

A. They are in need of further improvement.

B. They are going to disappear gradually.

C. They kill people instead of protecting them in low-speed collisions.

D.They are a standard feature of European cars.

74.According to the author, what will future cars do if the sensors detect alcohol in the driver's
system?

A.They will give a warning in advance.           B.They will brake automatically.

C.They will ease up on the throttle.                 D. They will not start.

75.Which of the following statements is true according to the last paragraph?

A.People will give up all control to their cars.

B.Cars will be able to drive themselves.

C.No cars will ever break down on the roads.

D.Cars will all be equipped with failsafe systems.

In spite of our efforts,we seemed to be getting no closer to Mary as the cold,boring March days dragged by. Even my faith was wearing thin. My heart ached so desperately, wanting this child with autism (自闭症) to come alive and be aware of the beauty, the wonder and the fun even if she had the pain of living without her mother.

Then on a late March day,one of the boys excitedly reported a robin (知更鸟) in the schoolyard. We flocked to the window to see it. "Spring's here!" the children cried. "Let's make a flower border for the room!"

Why not? I thought. Anything to lift our spir­its. This time the papers we selected were beautiful pastel (颜料) colors,with brown strips to weave in­to baskets. I showed the children how to weave the baskets and how to fashion all the flowers we wel­come in early spring. I placed the beautifully colored papers on her desk and encouraged her to try. Then I left the children to do their own creating,and I spent, the next half-hour sorting strips of paper at the back of the room.

Suddenly,Kristie came hurrying to me,her face red. “Come and see Mary’s basket,” she cried. “It’s so pretty! You’ll never believe it!” I caught my breath at its beauty. “Mary,” I said .“This is beautiful. How did you ever manage?” She looked at me with the shining eyes of any normal little girl. “My mother loved flowers,” she said simply. “She had all of these growing in our garden. ”

We fastened her basket in the very center of the border at the front of the room. It remained there until school ended in June. On the last day,Mary held it carefully as she carried it out the door. Then she came running back, pulled a paper crocus (番红花) from her basket and handed it to me. "This is for you," she said, and she gave me a hug.

I've kept the crocus in my desk ever since-just to remind me of Mary and of the enduring power of love and faith.

66.What can we learn about the writer from the first paragraph?

A.She didn't want to get close to Mary.

B.She thought Mary should leave the school.

C.She considered that she had tried her best.

D.She was concerned about Mary.

67.The writer had the children weave baskets to____.

A.angry             B.frightened                  C.depressed                 D.excited

69.What can we infer from the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph?

A.Mary was seriously sick.                                   B.Mary wanted to please the writer.

C.Mary recovered from illness.                      D.Mary was treated badly.

70.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

Money spent on advertising is money spent as well as any I know of. It serves directly to assist a rapid distribution of goods at reasonable prices,thereby establishing a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at competitive prices. By drawing attention to new ideas it helps enormously to raise standards of living. By helping to increase demand it ensures an increased need of many services: Without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four times as much,the price of your television license would need to be doubled,and travel by bus or tube would cost more.

And perhaps most important of all,advertising provides a guarantee of reasonable value in the products and services you buy. Apart from the fact the twenty-seven Acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising,no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements. He might fool some people for a little while through misleading advertising. He will not do so for long,for mercifully the public has the good sense not to buy the inferior article more than once. If you see an article consistently advertised, it is the surest proof I know that the article does what is claimed for it, and that it represents good value.

Advertising does more for the material benefit of the community than any other force I can think of.

There is one more point I feel I ought to touch on. Recently I heard a well-known television personality declare that he was against advertising because it persuades rather than informs. He was drawing excessively fine distinctions. Of course advertising seeks to persuade.

If its message were confined merely to information-and that in itself would be difficult if not impossible to achieve, for even a detail such as the choice of the colour of a shirt is subtly persuasive-advertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention. But perhaps that is what the well-known television personality wants.

61.By the first sentence of the passage the author means that____.

A. he is fairly familiar with the cost of advertising

B. everybody knows well that advertising is money consuming

C. advertising costs money like everything else

D. it is worthwhile to spend money on advertising

62.In the passage,which of the following is NOT included in the advantages of advertising?

A. Securing greater fame.                           B. Providing more jobs.

C. Enhancing living standards.                    D. Reducing newspaper cost.

63.The author thinks that the well-known TV personality is____.

A.very precise in passing his judgment on advertising

B.interested in nothing but the buyer's attention

C.correct in telling the difference between persuasion and information

D. obviously partial in his views on advertising

64.In the author's opinion,______.

A.advertising can seldom bring material benefit to man by providing information

B.advertising informs people of new ideas rather than wins them over

C.there is nothing wrong with advertising in persuading the buyer

D.the buyer is not interested in getting information from an advertisement

65.What attitude does the author hold for advertising?

A.Negative.       B.Positive.     C.Ridiculous.        D.Not stated.

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, connects the US 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-Iong 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.

56.Which of the following is true of the Hoover Dam?

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.

57.What is one of the purposes of building the bridge?

A. To protect the dam.                               B. To save the cultures.

C. To outdo the dam.                                 D. To develop the tourism.

58.The underlined word "uplift" in Paragraph 4 means"______",

A.lift of the heavy object                                   B.support in money

C.spiritual encouragement                                 D.instruction in technology

59.Which of the followings shows the right position of the bridge and dam?

60.The text is mainly about_____.

A.the Hoover Dam                                B.American western development

C.a tour along the Colorado River           D.a recently built bridge
