阅读理解。Dear Mary,
     You say in one of your emails that you are worried about your little boy Frank, because he always wants
you to buy him toys that he learnt about on television. I don"t think children should play with the commercial
(商业的) toys. When you were young I used to give you big cardboard boxes to play with as well as building
blocks (积木), books, paper and colored pencils. I expect you to do the same.
     Adults are also much influenced by the things they see on television. If you think about what you see on
television, you will find the money that people earn from their jobs can"t support the lifestyles they have. The
apartments in TV programmes are far too large and have the most up-to-date furniture. This always makes
you sad when you compare what you have with what you see on TV.
     If I were you, I would buy Frank the movies and stories that I think are good and interesting. I would have
a good collection of them and I would borrow books from the library. But I would not allow Frank to watch
television. I tell you: it surely makes for a much more pleasant and easier life.
     I prefer to keep him away from advertising, and let him have more time to read, and select his entertainment
(娱乐) for himself. I hope you will find this idea of not letting your little guy watch TV to avoid the advertising
useful to think about.
                                                                                                                                            Warmly,
                                                                                                                             Canada, Mum Linda 1. In this passage Linda gives Mary advice on _____. [     ]
A. whether she should let her child play with cardboard boxes

阅读理解。     Most friendships die a natural death: people move, change jobs, or start different stages of life. Other
friendships, however, end unexpectedly. When a friendship is over and you don"t understand why, it can
be especially painful. Sometimes a friend ends your relationship without telling you why.
     The loss of friendship might be worth reflecting on. Knowing when a friendship is over and why it ends
may help you build stronger friendships in the future. 
     ● See if you can find a problem. When a friendship is over, examine your relationship. Perhaps you
remember your friend complaining that you"re always late. Maybe you seldom return your friends" phone
calls. When afriend ends your relationship, try to find out the reasons why the friendship is over. 
      ● Write a letter to your friend. Express your feeling about the friendship. Do you miss seeing them?
Do you have any regrets (遗憾)? Would you act differently if you were still friends? Make it an honest
communication(交流). 
      ● Express your feelings of hurt or anger. Write or talk about how you feel in a letter. When a friendship
is over, it"s important to communicate exactly how hurt you feel,and why. Write until you have nothing left
to say. When a friend ends your relationship, you do have the right to express yourself. 
      ● Communicate that you are open to picking up the friendship. When afriendship is over and you
want to reconnect (再接合) some day, send Christmas, or birthday cards. Say hi and send greetings through
mutual (共有的) friends. When a friendship is over, don"t give up until you"re ready.

阅读理解。     Many students want to find friends on the Internet as a way of practising their language skills and learning
more about new cultures. Traditional pen pals were the main source (起源) of such contacts, and students
could write to each other. With the Internet, finding friends has become much easier, and such relationships
are called keypals.
     However, careful thinking should be given when finding friends on the Internet:
     First, search the Internet for famous services. Look for reviews of such sites to learn more about other
students" experiences. Don"t join a service until you have done your research.
     Second, check to see if you can use a false name, rather than your real name, to protect your identity.
Never give personal information to anyone, including your home address, phone number and birthday.
     Third, stop contacting others if you feel uncomfortable with the topics of conversation. Tell your teachers,
parents, or even the local government if you find that you are in danger.
     And finally, try to use the language you are studying in the classroom in your communications with others.
Ask proper questions that will also help you learn about other cultures. Remember that one"s personal
experience might be just that: To understand a whole culture, you have to talk to many people, but this will get
you started. Good luck. 1. If you are not comfortable with the topics,you should _____. [     ]
A. talk about something else with others
B. stop communicating with others
C. ask your teachers or parents for advice
D. tell him to stop talking about the topics 2. The underlined word"identity" probably means _____. [     ]
A. name
B. address
C. family
D. personal information 3. It can be seen from the passage that _____. [     ]
A. the writer is worried about the studens searching the Intemet
B. to know more about a culture,you need to communicate with many people
C. in order to protect yourself,you"d better tell lies on the Internet
D. many people will talk to you if you ask questions about their culture 4. Which of the following is TRUE?[     ]
A. Many students want to make friends on the Internet to practe their English.
B. It"s easy to make friends with experienced students on the Internet.
C. Exchange your phone number with your keypals to keep in touch with them.

阅读理解。     The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was
7:30 pm. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.
     By 9:45 pm, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless.
Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some
food was about to appear. By 11:00 pm, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads.
Jane and David left hungry and angry.
     Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads
and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6:30-8:30 pm means drinks only, go
out to dinner afterwards: 8:00 pm or 8:30 pm means possible dinner, but 9:30 pm and any time thereafter means
no food, eat beforehand, to up late.
     But this is not always that case. If asked to a students" party at 6:30 pm, it is normal for guests not to appear
before midnight, if at all, and no one cares. Being the first to arrive-looking eager-is social death. When my
mother is asked to a party for 6:30 pm, she likes to be there, if not on time, then no later than seven. My age
group (late thirties) fall somewhere between the two, but because we still think we"re young, we"re probably
closer to student-time than grownup time.
     The accepted custom at present is confusing (混乱的), sometimes annoying, and it often means you may
go home, but it does lend every part that precious element (成分) of surprise. 1. The underlined words "off their heads" probably mean _____. [     ]
A. tired
B. crazy
C. curious
D. hopeless 2. Jane and David"s story is used to show that _____. [     ]
A. party-goers usually get hungry at parties
B. party invitations can be confusing
C. people should ask for food at parties
D. birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull 3. For some young people, arriving on time for a students" party will probably be considered _____. [     ]
A. very difficult
B. particularly thoughtful
C. friendly and polite
D. socially unacceptable

阅读理解。     Are morning people born or made? In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I rarely went to
bed before midnight, and I would almost always get up late the next moming.
     But after a while I couldn"t ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare
occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity was almost always higher. So I set out
to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that
noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed me that I was using the wrong strategy.
     The most common wrong strategy is this: You assume that if you"re going to get up earlier, you"d better
go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail.
     There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get
up at the same time every day. The second says you should go to bed when you"re tired and get up when you
naturally wake up. However, I have found both of them are wrong if you care about productivity.
     If you sleep at set hours, you"ll sometimes go to bed when you aren"t sleepy enough. You"re wasting time
lying in bed awake and not being asleep. If your sleep is based on what your body tells you, you"ll probably
be sleeping more than you need. Also, your mornings may be less predictable if you"re getting up at different
times.
     The solution for me has been to combine both methods. I go to bed when I"m sleepy and get up with an
alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 a.m.), but I go to bed at
different times every night-sometimes at 9:30 p.m. and other times at midnight. Most of the time I go to bed
between 10-11 p.m.
     However, going to bed only when I"m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning is my way. If
you want to become an early riser, you can try your own. 1. According to the passage,the underlined phrase refers to _____. [     ]
A. people who stay up until the next morning
B. people who get up early in the morning
C. people who feel sleepy in the morning
D. people whose productivity is the highest in the morning 2. Why did the author want to become a habitual early riser? [     ]
A. Because he/she wanted to form the habit of going to bed early and getting up early.
B. Because he/she had found that his/her productivity was higher when he/she got up early.
C. Because he/she wanted to see which of the two main schools of thought on sleep pattems was right.
D. Because he/she was told the high relationship between success and rising early. 3. The author experienced all the following EXCEPT_____. [     ]
A. going to bed after midnight
B. getting up early occasionally
C. pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping
D. asking scholars for advice on sleeping habits
