题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Except for a few times, Americans are not big present-givers. There’s no exchange of presents among business people, and if one American tries to give another a present, it may look like that he wants to bribe (贿赂) him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to give presents to others, but among ourselves we don’t see the need for presents.
Even friends may never exchange presents. When I go to foreign countries, I try to bring back little things for close friends, but nobody would feel unhappy if I didn’t. I don’t often re­member a friend’ s birthday, and few people outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, I’d get unpleasant. But a present from a foreigner — that kind from his or her homeland — won’t go wrong, except to government employees (政府职员) who can’t be given presents.
You usually open a present at once and in front of the person who gives it except Christmas and birthday presents. You should only say, ‘It’s so nice. Thanks…’when you get Christ­mas or birthday presents.
You may want to bring a bottle of wine (葡萄酒) or flowers to a dinner party, but you’re never asked to. Nobody will mind if you bring wine, but your friend may not use it that evening.
At Christmas we often give presents to our family and sometimes our friends. We also give presents to people who have been helpful during the year like doormen, babysitters, housecleaners , newspaper senders — anyone who has often helped us.
【小题1】What do the underlined words ‘close friends’ mean in the passage?

A.The friends who are very kind.
B.The friends who live close to each other.
C.The friends who were once classmates.
D.The friends who you like most.
【小题2】What kind of presents don’t Americans usually open in front of the givers?
A.The small presents
B.Christmas or birthday presents.
C.The expensive presents.
D.The presents for dinner party.
【小题3】Why do Americans also give presents to housecleaners at Christmas?
A.To pay them.
B.To help them.
C.To thank them.
D.To make them work harder.
【小题4】Which of the following do you think is right?
A.American business people don’t want presents because they are rich enough.
B.The writer of this passage must be an American.
C.Everyone must give presents to one’s family and friends at Christmas.

Problems
Solutions(解决办法)
My best friend Jack goes on vacation a lot and always brings me something expensive. I don’t have enough money to get him anything every time. What should I do?
Bob
Souvenirs don’t have to cost a lot. Show him you are thinking of him. That’s important. Imagine how excited he would be if he got a postcard from you!
Miller
I have a crush on a movie star. I really wish I did not. I have had dreams about him, and I even find myself wishing to be his wife. Are there any ways to stop this?
Alice
A star is cute, but what else? What do you think is important for person? Being good-looking or kind-hearted? Remember that the star in the movie probably isn’t what he is like in real life. So don’t let yourself spend too much time on the star. Staying with friends or taking more activities will help you get him out of your mind.
Miller
I’m always arguing with my parents. I hate it, but I can’t help it. What can I do?
Harry

Sometimes it seems that our parents just don’t know us well, doesn’t it? When I’m arguing with my parents, I usually take a walk and calm myself down. It gives me time to clear my head. That means I can talk to them and solve(v.解决) the problem. Have a try—parents are easier to talk with when you are cool and calm.

阅读下面四篇短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项.

  Students these days often have a lot of worries.Sometimes they have problems with their schoolwork, and sometimes with their friends. ________ Some people think the worst thing is to do nothing.Laura Mills, a teenager from Washington, agrees.“Problems and worries are normal in life,” says Laura.“But I think talking to someone helps a lot.If we don't talk to someone, we'll certainly feel worse.”

  Laura once lost her purse, and worried for days.She was afraid to tell her parents shout it.She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn't have any money.She just kept thinking.“If I tell my parents, they'll be angry!” But in the end, she talked to her parents and they were really understanding.Her dad said he sometimes made careless mistakes himself.They got her a new purse and asked her to be more careful.“I will always remember to share my problems in the future!” Laura says.

  Robert Hunt advises students about common problems.He feels the same way as Laura. “It is best not to avoid our problems.We should always try to solve (解决) them.” He thinks that you can first find someone to talk to.This person doesn't need to be an expert (专家) like himself.Students often forget that their parents have more experience than them, and are always there to help them.
