阅读理解。     The use of cars is becoming more and more popular in the twentieth century. A large number of the
world"s population are now able to buy and use cars.
     Having a car gives much mobility (活动余地), enabling the driver to move around freely. The owner
of a car is no longer forced to depend on public transport (公共交通) and doesn"t, therefore, have to work
in a place near his home. Instead, he can choose from a greater variety of jobs and he could change his job
frequently.
     Travelling to work by car is also more comfortable than having to use public transport; the driver can
use the heating in winter and the air conditioning in summer to meet his own need and preference. There is
no discomfort caused by waiting for buses, trains or underground trains, etc. With the building of good fast
motorways,long distances can be covered rapidly and pleasantly. Also, for the first time in the century, many
people are able to enjoy their free time to the full by making trips to the countryside or seaside at weekends.
This feeling of independence and the freedom to go wherever you please is perhaps the greatest advantage
(优势) of the car. 1. What does the writer think of the public transport? [     ]
A. It gives less mobility
B. It is not comfortable at all
C. It enables a variety of jobs
D. It is becoming more popular than before 2. Traveling by bus may be _____. [     ]
A. less comfortable than by underground train
B. more comfortable than by other transport
C. less comfortable than by other public transport
D. less comfortable than by car 3. What does the underlined word mean? [     ]
A. from time to time
B. with difficulty
C. against his own will
D. never 4. What does the writer think of having a car of your own? [     ]
A. It offers lots of advantages.
B. It has lots of independence.
C. It gives the feeling of freedom.
D. It offers free trips.

阅读理解。     It is Saturday afternoon. You and your friends are planning to go to the movies and then spend the night
together. Just as you start to get ready, your dad reminds you that it is your aunt"s birthday and the whole
family is going out to dinner to celebrate. How can this possibly end without a huge argument?   
     One of the greatest sources of tension (紧张情绪) between teenagers and their families is the struggle
to balance personal desires with family expectations. As you are getting older, you are becoming more
independent and more interested in being with your friends.   
     However, at the same time, your family is trying to figure out how to deal with these changes. While
you once spent most of your free time with your family, you are now often absent from home. Parents
may get their feelings hurt. Or they might feel that they are losing control of their family during this period.
You might feel angry that so many family demands are placed on you.   
     There are a few things you can try to make it a little easier to ease (缓解) the tension.   
     * Make your plans in advance. Ask your parents if there is anything else planned at that time.   
     * When something with your friends interferes (冲突) with a family event,try to figure out if there is
any way you can do both.   
     * Suggest something you would really like to do with your family. Sometimes parents feel better just
knowing their teenager wants to spend time with them.   
      Some of the time you won"t be happy with the outcome (结果). You might either have to disappoint
your parents or have to miss out being with your friends. However, if you show consideration for the
feelings of both your family and your friends,you can solve the problem in a tender way. 1. The purpose of the first paragraph is to _____. [     ]

阅读理解。     You are enjoying the beautiful scenery in a quiet place, but suddenly the peace and quiet is interrupted
(打断) by the noisy sound of a cellphone (手机)! Cellphones are everywhere, and some people don"t know
what the limits of cellphone use are.
     For me, it"s just a matter of education, good manners, and common sense. If I go to a beautiful place,
it is because I want to enjoy nature. I can do it, but without bothering (打扰) other people.
     Nowadays, that"s the biggest problem. People disturb other people, first with the ringing of their
cellphones and then with their conversations because they usually speak very loudly. Not everybody in a
public place should have to listen to private conversations (私人谈话). Even more annoying, you hear just
one part of the conversation.
     People need to learn how to use cellphones correctly. If there is an emergency (紧急情况), cellphones
are acceptable, but remember that just a few years ago few people had cellphones and the whole society
survived!
     But again, not everybody wants to listen to other people"s private conversations. It"s like smoking. People
don"t want to be bothered by smokers
. Our society has to learn to respect other people. 
     Sometimes when you are talking to someone, that person interrupts the conversation because of a
cellphone call, without saying "I"m sorry." That is bad manners. They don"t know how to respect other people.
It"s just common sense! But our society is sometimes so "common senseless!" So, we have to write some
rules to prohibit (禁止) cellphone use in some places. 1. What could be the best title for the passage? [     ]
A. Cellphone Manners Are a Must
B. How to Use Cellphones
C. Don"t Disturb Others
D. The Popularity (流行) of Cellphones 2. According to the author, what is the biggest problem nowadays? [     ]
A. People are disturbed by those who use cellphones.
B. People can"t hear the other part of the conversation.
C. Private conversations are carried out on cellphone.
D. Not everyone uses a cellphone in public places. 3. By saying "People don"t want to be bothered by smokers" (Para. 5), the author really means _____. [     ]
A. smoking also does harm to other people"s health
B. people don"t want to listen to others talk
C. people don"t want to be bothered by cellphone talkers
D. some people don"t want others to smoke 4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? [     ]
A. If we interrupt the conversation with a cellphone call, we should say sorry.
B. Some of the cellphone users don"t have good manners.
C. Before using cellphones, we must know how to respect others.
D. People who use cellphones are not interested in beautiful scenery at all.

请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。     Are you tired of the same old schedule on Mother"s Day? Well, here are some new ideas to help you enjoy
that special day with your mother.
     While it seems almost a tradition to take your mother out for dinner on Mother"s Day, perhaps this year
you could try something else. You could invite her to a restaurant before or after the actual day. This way you
don"t have to fight the crowds, and the prices will be lower.
    Take your mother out for a picnic lunch if the weather is nice. You and she can enjoy the cool breeze under
the shade of a tree while having a nice meal that you have made for her. Be sure to pack some of her favorite
foods.
     Another idea would be to invite your mother to go bowling (打保龄球). Even if she has never bowled in
her life, trying something new is always interesting.
     You could treat her to a movie she is dying to see, and make sure you buy her all the popcorn and candies
she can eat. If you are a male, the chances are you won"t like the movie she wants to see, so instead you could
go to the mall and get your picture taken with your mother, which she can proudly display in her house.
     Take her to a spa on Mother"s Day. She has been working so hard and needs a way to release her stress.
     If she doesn"t want to go to a spa, buy her special soaps and oils so she can relax herself in her own tub.
There are various types of soaps and oils with delicious flavors available. You could also buy her some
scented (芬芳的) candles that she could light by her tub to make the atmosphere peaceful.
     No matter what you choose, make sure you do something special for the woman who took care of you
for so long.                                             Title: Special ideas for Mother"s Day

                                                                 Traveling 
     It is exciting to visit different places. As you travel, you will admire the beauty of nature. Besides, you
can make friends with people from different places. Finally, you can get to know the culture and enjoy the
delicious food. Today people are so fond of traveling that tourism has become one of the faster growing
industries in most countries.
     The main reason why people travel is, perhaps, to relax. For example, having worked hard throughout
the weekdays, people will find a trip to the nearby mountains or beaches for a real relaxation. For another
example, spending a holiday traveling abroad is an especially satisfying experience for those who do not
have much of an opportunity to be away from their homelands. When people return from their travel, they
will generally feel fresh and energetic, ready to work harder.
     Traveling is also one of the best means for learning and broadening your views. You may have read or
heard about something but you can never get an accurate picture of it until you see it for yourself. Seeing
is believing. Furthermore, if you are a careful observer, you can learn much during your travel about the
geography, biology, and history of the places you visit. No matter how well educated you are, there is
always a lot for you to learn through traveling. The knowledge acquired from travel, as you will have found
in your life, is no less valuable than that from any influential reference book.
Questions:
1. What"s the main reason why people travel?
    ____________________________________________________.
2. How do people feel when they return from their traveling?
    ____________________________________________________.
3. What does the writer think of the knowledge acquired from travel?
    ____________________________________________________.
