    70．A suitable title for this passage would probably be “ ． A．Friendships between Chinese B．Friendships between Americans C．Americans’ hospitality D．Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendships PART FOUR WRITING SECTION A Directions: Read the following passage．Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer. After the women’s movement in the world, women’s position in society as well as at home is improving．But how many men on earth have helped their wives do their housework at home, do you know? Recently a European Commission tried to find out people's ideas and reactions to the women's movement.They have carried out an overall survey of that．As part of their survey , they asked many men and women all over the Europe the same question,“Who does the housework? The men answered very differently from the women! The housework they asked people about were: preparing meals, washing dishes, cleaning the house and babysitting．48% of British husbands said they did these things at home．37% of Danish men helped their wives do such things in the house．But only 15% of Italian men said they did the housework; many of them said they never helped at all． But there was an interesting point of view from the wives．According to British wives, only 38% of their husbands helped in the house．And Italian wives said that their husbands hardly ever helped them at home．The Italian and British men did not tell the truth! The Commission, however, found that Danish men were the most truthful husbands, fpr their answers were the same as their wives' answers． Do the men you know around you help their wives in the house? Do you think the survey made by the European Commission gives a true picture in your experience? Write and tell us what you think European Commission’s survey purpose To find out people’s 71. to the women’s movement 72. Answers to the question and 73. between the men and the women 74. The rate of men 75. Women’s view 76. 48% only 38% Denmark 37% 77. Italy 78. Almost none 79. The Italian and British men told a lie; 80. were the most honest SECTION B Directions: Read the following passage．Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit．Write your answers on your answer sheet. The average college student in America spent an estimated 700 dollars on textbooks last year．The National Association of College Stores reported more than five billion dollars in sales of textbooks and course materials. Association spokesman Charles Schmidt says electronic textbooks now represent just two to three percent of sales．But he says that is expected to reach 10 to 15 percent by 2012. Online versions are now available for many of the most popular college textbooks．E-textbooks can cost half the price of a new print textbook．But students usually lose access after the end of the term．And the books cannot be placed on more than one device, so they are not easy to share. So what do students think of e-textbooks? Administrators at Northwest Missouri State University wanted to find out．Earlier this year they tested them with 500 students in 20 classes. The students in the survey reported that downloading the books from the Internet was easy．They liked the idea of carrying lighter backpacks．And 56 percent said they were better able to find information. But most found that using e-textbooks did not change their study habits．And 60 percent felt they read more when they were reading on paper．In all, almost half the students said they still liked physical textbooks better. But the survey found that cost could be a big influence．55 percent said they would choose e-textbooks if using them meant their textbook rental fee would not increase. Roger Von Holzen heads the Center for Information Technology in Education at Northwest Missouri State．He tells us that administrators are disappointed with the e-textbooks now available because the majority are not interactive. He thinks growth will come when more digital books include video, activities, games and other ways to interact with the information．The technology is improving．But for now, most of the books are just words on a screen. 【查看更多】

     

    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.

    Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.

    Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably(好客).

    For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!

    A．an American       B．a Chinese          C．a professor        D．a student
