A. True or False(判断下列句子是否符合短文内容.符合的用“T 表示.不符合的用“F 表示): About fifty years ago, when television first came out, people thought that radio was no longer useful. Television has both sounds and pictures. It is much more real and interesting to watch television than to listen to the radio. However, fifty years later radio is still very popular and it will be here for a long time. One reason is that we don’t need to see pictures when we listen to music on the radio. In fact, listening with your eyes closed is the best way to listen to a piece of music. You can think yourself on a sandy beach or up high on a mountain. In other words, you can create or make your own picture. Moreover, while listening to the radio, you don’t have to take your eyes off your work. For example, you can listen to the radio and drive at the same time. Or you can read a book and listen to the radio. Television, on the other hand, doesn’t have this advantage. A radio is much smaller than a television. You can take a radio anywhere and turn it on anytime you want. In a quiet place you can use headphones to listen to the news or music on the radio. In this way you won’t disturb anybody. Moreover, a radio is much cheaper than a television. For less than $ 20 you can buy a small radio and have fun with it. Which is better, radio or television? 71. Television was not available in 1920s. 72. Radio is no longer useful since television came out. 73. Television provides both sounds and pictures, which is more real and interesting. 74. While you listen to music with your eyes closed, you can create your own pictures. 75. According to the passage, you can do something else while watching television. 76. A radio can be taken to anyplace because it is smaller than a television. 77. In the author’s opinion, television is better than radio. B. Choose the best answer(根据短文内容.选择最恰当的答案): Following are opinions on the manner that people in the United States usually expect in various social situations. Men usually shake hands with each other when they meet for the first time, but shake hands with women only if the woman extends her hand first. Women do not usually shake hands with each other. After the first meeting, shaking hands is unusual. However, if someone offers his or her hand by chance, one is expected to shake it. In general, people in the United States avoid physical touch with each other, since physical touch often suggests sexual attraction or attack. Although, it has been noted, first names are used more often in the United States than elsewhere, this practice is generally accepted by the rules of etiquette. Thus, while it is proper for the foreign student to address people of about his or her own age and status by their first name, the student would be expected to use “Mr. , “Mrs. , “Miss or “Ms. and the person’s last name in addressing to another person who is clearly older than the student. (On the other hand, the old person will probably address the student by his or her first name from the beginning.) If the other person being addressed has a title such as “Doctor or “Dean , the student should use that title and last name. For example, Doctor Edward Kennedy would be addressed as “Doctor Kennedy . Any faculty member can be addressed as “Professor , no matter whether he or she holds the rank of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or full Professor. Equally acceptable are “Mr. , “Mrs. , etc. 78. Men won’t shake hands with women until the woman . A. says “Yes B. extends her hand first C. allows to D. was once met 79. According to the passage, it is not common that women shake hands . A. with children B. with the same sex C. with old people D. with man 80. If the man you meet for the second time wants to shake hands with you, you just . A. tell him that it s not good for men to shake hands again B. refuse his hand-shaking C. smile but then refuse D. take his hand 81. If your classmate’s name is John Smith, it is better for you to call him . A. John B. Smith C. Mr Smith D. Mr John Smith 82. The underlined word “address in the passage most probably means . A. write a letter to B. speak to C. ask somebody to give his address D. write the address on the envelope 83. Which of the following is wrong? A. Americans use first name more often than people in any other country. B. You use Mr. or Mrs. and the last name in addressing a person who is older than you. C. You can call Professor Edward Kennedy Mr. Kennedy. D. It’s impolite for older people to call young people by their first names. 84. The passage is mainly about . A. shaking hands B. the manner in American social situations C. people’s opinion on conversation D. meeting people C. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage(选择最恰当的单词或词语完 成短文): When the young man starts to earn his own living, he becomes free from discipline of school and parents; but at the same time he is forced to be 85 , he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to 86 if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go 87 . And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, 88 trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of seeing himself make steady progress in his job and of building up for himself his own position in society. Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be; but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. Old age should come with 89 and the ability to help others with advice wisely given. The old can have the 90 of seeing their children making progress in life; they can watch their 91 growing up around them; and, perhaps best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving others to continue to fight. 85. A. responsible B. helpful C. useful D. careful 86. A. play B. study C. work D. learn 87. A. wrong B. hungry C. bad D. full 88. A. gives away B. keeps off C. runs away D. turns on 89. A. wisdom B. sadness C. chance D. carefulness 90. A. joy B. right C. success D. reason 91. A. sons B. daughters C. grandchildren D. relatives D. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词. 使其内容通顺.每空格限填一词.首字母已给): Americans think that travel is good for people. Some even think it can help one of the country’s worst problem-crime. Crime worries a lot of people. Every year, the n 92 of crimes goes up and up. They often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all. There are problems with drugs. There are many young criminals in prison. But prison doesn’t change them--60 to 70 percent will go b 93 to crime when they come out of prison. One man, Bob Burton, thought of a new idea. In the old days, young men had to live a hard life on the road. They learned to be strong and brave, and to help their friends in time of danger. This helped them to grow into m 94 . So Bob started “Vision Quest . He takes young criminals on a long, long j 95 with horses and wagons 3,000 miles through 7 states. They are on the road for more than one year. The young people on Vision Quest all have bad problems. Most of them have already s 96 time in prison. This is their last chance. It’s hard work on the road. The day starts before the sun comes up. The boys and the girls have to feed the horses. Some of them have never loved anyone before, b 97 they can love their horses. That love can help them to start a new life. Not all young people in Vision Quest will leave crime behind them. 30 or 40 percent will one day be in prison a 98 . But that’s a lot better than 60 or 70 percent. Bob is right. Travel can be good for them. E. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题): Anna lived on the side of a valley . One winter, there was a very big flood, and a lot of houses down below Anna’s house were washed away. Anna’s house was high enough to escape the flood, so when the water had disappeared and the other houses were standing there with no roofs and walls and all covered with mud, her house was still quite all right. That year Anna’s was very lucky. Her house was quite small and there were only two small bedrooms, her husband was dead when the children were very young, and she had four children, but Anna took in one of the families that had lost everything in the flood and she shared her home with them until it was possible for them to rebuild their house. Anna’s friends were very puzzled when they saw Anna do this. They could not understand why Anna wanted to give herself so much more work and trouble when she had already quite a lot of children to support. Life would be even harder when another family joined them. “Well, Anna explained to her friends, “at the end of the First World War, a woman in the town where I then lived in Germany found herself very poor, because her husband had been killed in the war and she had a lot of children, as I have now. “The day before Christmas, this woman said to her children, `We won’t have much for Christmas this year, so I am going to get only one gift for all of us and I am sure we will all be glad to have it. Now I’ll go and get it.’ She came back with a little girl who was even poorer than they, and who had no parents. `Here is our gift,’ she said to her children. “The children were very excited and happy to get such a gift. They welcomed the little girl, and she grew up as their sister, I was just that Christmas gift. 99. Where did Anna live? 100. Was her house washed away in the big flood? 101. How many people were there in Anna’s family? 102. Why were Anna’s friends puzzled when she shared her house with a family that had lost everything? 103. When did Anna live in Germany? 104. Who was once given as a Christmas gift to a poor family? 105. Why was Anna willing to help the poor? 查看更多

True or False. (判断下列句子是否符合短文内容,符合的用“T”表示,不符合的用“F”表示。)

Forest Smith is a member of Green First,
an environmental group.
       Our future on Earth looks very bad. We are
dumping waste on our land. We can't breathe
the air. The sea is polluted too.
       I visited some relatives recently in a small
village. They grow their own food and cycle
everywhere. They are not wealthy, but they are
happy and healthy.
       We must close the factories producing
useless products. That would reduce rubbish and
air pollution. We must recycle more, give up all
cars, and improve public transport.
A big problem is overpopulation in big cities. We
must give up big cities and factories, and get back
to a simple way of life.

John Green is a scientist at a university.
       Things are not as bad as Forest says. We'll
have a bright future. We don't need to give
up cars but we need to invent better, cleaner
engines. 
       This won't stop the problem of traffic
jams. So we need better public transport. We
should also recycle more.
        But some things are getting better. My
sister returned last month after living abroad for
five years. She said, "Our old neighbourhood
doesn't look the same as before-it is cleaner and
greener now."
        Science has brought many improvements.
A hundred years ago, most people died in their 40s.
We can't go back to a life like that.
(     )1. Three experts were asked to give their views on the pollution problems this week.
(     )2. The word "views" here probably means people's ideas or opinions.
(     )3. Both Forest Smith and John Green think they'll have a bright future on the pollution problems.
(     )4. Forest Smith's view on cars and public transport is the same as John Green's.
(     )5. Forest Smith visited some relatives and found they lived a rich, happy and healthy life.
(     )6. John Green's sister said their old neighbourhood looked cleaner and greener than before.
(     )7. The passage mainly tells us something about different kinds of pollution on the earth.

True or false (判断下列句子是否符合短文内容,符合的用“T”表示,不符合的用“F”表示):
      Do you get angry when your friends sing loudly while you are trying to work? Or when your best friend does not wait for you after school?
      If you do, you need to take control of your feelings and stop getting angry so easily. Getting angry with
people can cause you to lose friends.
      Gary Egeberg, an American high school teacher, has written "My Feelings Just Like Wild Animals" to help
you control your feelings. It tells teens how to stay cool when bad things happen to them.
      The book says that getting angry only makes problems worse. It can never make them better.
      Getting angry is not a natural way to act, the book says. It is just a bad habit, like smoking.
      The book says you can control your anger (怒气) easily?-all you have to do is tell yourself not to be angry.
      When a baby falls over, it only cries if people are watching it.
      Like a baby, you should only get angry if you are sure it is the right thing to do.
      The book gives many tips(提示) to help you if you get angry easily. Here are our top three:
      1. Keep a record. Every time you get angry write down why you are angry. Look at it later and you will see
you get angry too easily.
      2. Ask your friends to stop talking to you when you get angry. This will teach you not to be angry.
      3. Do something different. When you get angry, walk away from the problem and go somewhere else. Try
to laugh!
(     ) 1. Getting angry with people can cause you to lose friends.
(     ) 2. The book "My Feelings Just Like Wild Animals" can help you make more friends.
(     ) 3. The book says you can control your anger easily by telling yourself not to be angry.
(     ) 4. If you fall over, you should get angry.
(     ) 5. Keeping a record can help you learn from your past experience and control your anger.
