As she was thinking all about this, shesuddenly heard the airline em¬ployee asking her to pick up her luggage and putit on the scales (称).Maria pulled and pulled. The bag was too heavy and she just couldn't lift itup. The man behind her got very impatient. He, too, was waiting to check in hisluggage."What'swrong with this girl?" He said, "Why doesn't she hurry up?" Hemoved for¬ward and placed his bag on the counter, hoping to check in first. Hewas in a hurry to get a good seat.Mariawas very angry, but she was very polite. And in her best English she said,"Why are you so upset? There are enough seats for everyone on the plane.If you are in such a hur¬ry, why can't you give me a hand with myluggage?"The manwas surprised to hear Maria speak English.

If you telephone him early inthe day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call showsthat the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The samemeaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p. m. If someonereceives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life ordeath. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In sociallife, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel theyare not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended onlythree or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries.In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make anappointment too far in ad¬vance because plans which are made for a date morethan a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in differentparts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from differentcultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued high¬ly in Americanlife, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impoliteor not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a businessassociate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will notcomplete the sentence.(260 words)131. What is the main idea of this passage?A.

During the twentiethcentury there was an unusual shortening of the time of a woman’s life spent incaring for children. A woman who got married at the end of the 19th centurywould probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to haveseven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five yearsold. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in herearly fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during whichcustom, chance and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today womenget married at a younger age and have fewer children. Usually a woman’syoungest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and is likely to takepaid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children,her work is lightened by household appliances（家用电器）and convenience foods. Thisimportant change in women’s way of life has only recently begun to have itsfull effect on women’s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls leftschool at the first opportunity and most of them took a full-time job. However,when they got married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it.Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after thatage, and though women tend to get married young, more married women stay atwork at least until shortly before their first child is born. Many more returnafterwards to a full-time or part-time job. Such changes have led to a newrelationship in marriage, with both husband and wife accepting a greater shareof the duties and satisfaction of family life, and with both husband and wifesharing more equally in providing the money and running the home, according tothe abilities and interest of each of them.136. Weare told that in an average family about 1890________.A. manychildren died before they were fiveB. theyoungest child would be fifteen years younger than the oldestC.seven of eight children lived to be more than fiveD. thechild death rate was rather high137.When she was over fifty, the late 19th century mother________.A.would expect to work until she diedB. wasusually expected to take up paid employmentC.would be healthy enough to take up paid employmentD. wasunlikely to find a job even if she is now likely138.Many girls, the passage says, are now likely to ________.A. getmarried so that they can get a jobB.leave school as soon as they canC. giveup their jobs for good after they are marriedD.continue working until they are going to have a baby139.According to the passage, it is now quite usual for women to ________.A. stayat home after leaving schoolB.marry men younger than themselvesC.start working again later in lifeD. getmarried while still at school140.The best title for this passage is ______________.A.Great Changes in Women’s Life B.19th-Century Family C.Modern Girls’ Choice D.Equal Duties in Family LifeThere were oncethree sons of a wealthy businessman.141 they met, the two eldest, who weretwins,142to quarrel about which of them should behis father's heir (继承人) .

The samemeaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p. m. If someonereceives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life ordeath. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In sociallife, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel theyare not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended onlythree or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries.In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make anappointment too far in ad¬vance because plans which are made for a date morethan a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in differentparts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from differentcultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued high¬ly in Americanlife, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impoliteor not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a businessassociate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will notcomplete the sentence.(260 words)156. What is the main idea of this passage?A.

During the twentiethcentury there was an unusual shortening of the time of a woman’s life spent incaring for children. A woman who got married at the end of the 19th centurywould probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to haveseven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five yearsold. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in herearly fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during whichcustom, chance and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today womenget married at a younger age and have fewer children. Usually a woman’syoungest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and is likely to takepaid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children,her work is lightened by household appliances（家用电器）and convenience foods. Thisimportant change in women’s way of life has only recently begun to have itsfull effect on women’s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls leftschool at the first opportunity and most of them took a full-time job. However,when they got married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it.Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after thatage, and though women tend to get married young, more married women stay atwork at least until shortly before their first child is born. Many more returnafterwards to a full-time or part-time job. Such changes have led to a newrelationship in marriage, with both husband and wife accepting a greater shareof the duties and satisfaction of family life, and with both husband and wifesharing more equally in providing the money and running the home, according tothe abilities and interest of each of them.161. Weare told that in an average family about 1890________.A. manychildren died before they were fiveB. theyoungest child would be fifteen years younger than the oldestC.seven of eight children lived to be more than fiveD. thechild death rate was rather high162.When she was over fifty, the late 19th century mother________.A.would expect to work until she diedB. wasusually expected to take up paid employmentC.would be healthy enough to take up paid employmentD. wasunlikely to find a job even if she is now likely163.Many girls, the passage says, are now likely to ________.A. getmarried so that they can get a jobB.leave school as soon as they canC. giveup their jobs for good after they are marriedD.continue working until they are going to have a baby164According to the passage, it is now quite usual for women to ________.A. stayat home after leaving schoolB.marry men younger than themselvesC.start working again later in lifeD. getmarried while still at school165.The best title for this passage is ______________.A.Great Changes in Women’s Life B.19th-Century Family C.Modern Girls’ Choice D.Equal Duties in Family LifeThere were oncethree sons of a wealthy businessman.166 they met, the two eldest, who weretwins,167to quarrel about which of them should behis father's heir (继承人) . The youngest, whowas not168 ambitious (野心勃勃的),took no part in their argument. As soon as they left home, the father arrangedfor an adequate income to be provided for 169 of them, but insisted that apart from thisthey were to be financially self-supporting. The 170 twin, who had the advantage of goodlooks and a striking personality, decided that he would take up the stage 171 a career.

PassageThereare three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.Short-termgoals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can applyon a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks,or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is nostronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very muchwithout the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing ourshort-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goalsthat will build on those that have been completed.Theintermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They mightdeal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could evenextend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should neverallow yourself to become dis¬couraged or overwhelmed. As you complete eachstep, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And asyour list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.Long-termgoals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five yearsor more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal tolimit us or our course of action.(221words) 176.Our long-term goals mean a lot .A. ifwe cannot reach solid short-term goals B.if we complete the short-term goalsC. ifwe have dreams of the future D.if we put forward some plans177.

Weshould often add new short-term goals to those which have been completed.PassageBritainand France are separated by the English Channel, a body of water that can becrossed in as few as 20 minutes. But the cultures of the two countriessometimes seem to be miles apart.LastThursday Britain and France celebrated the 100th anniversary (周年纪念) ofthe signing of a friendship agreement called the Entente Cordiality. Theagreement marked a new beginning for the countries following centuries of warsand love-hate partnership.Buttheir relationship has been ups and downs over the past century. Just lastyear, there were fierce disagreements over the Iraq war—which British PrimeMinister Tony Blair supported despite French President Jacques Chirac speakingout against it. This discomfort is expressed in Blair and Chirac's bodylanguage at international meetings. While the French leader often greets GermanChancellor Gerhard Schroeder with a hug (拥抱), Blair just re¬ceives a handshake.However, some political experts say the war in Iraq could in fact have helpedties.Thehistory of divisions may well be because of the very different ways in which thetwo sides see the world. But this doesn't stop 12 million Britons takingholidays in France each year. However, only 3 million French come in theopposite direction. Surveys (调查) show that most French people feelcloser to the Germans than they do to the British. And the re¬search carriedout in Britain has found that only a third of the population believes theFrench can be trusted. Perhaps this bad feeling comes because the Britishdislike France's close rela¬tionship with Germany, or because the French arenot happy with Britain's close links with the US.Whateverthe answer is, as both sides celebrate 100 years of "doubtfulfriendship" , they are at least able to make jokes about each other.Here's one: What's the best thing about Britain's relationship with France?

America; America184. are more interested in havingholidays in .A.American people… Britain B.British people… GermanyC.French people… Britain D.British people… France185.

Passage2Aforeigner's first impression of the U.S. is likely to be that everyone is in arush-often under pressure.

Racing through daytime meals is partof the pace of life in this country.Workingtime is considered precious.

Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also showsart for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall forits drawings and paintings. FIU hasopened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. Youdon’t have to visit the University to see the art. You just need a computerlinked to a telephone. You cancall the telephone number of a University computer and connect your owncomputer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computerart produced electronically (通过电子手段) by artists on their owncomputers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all thepictures and drawings.RobertShostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he starts the museumbecause computer artists had no place to show their works.Acomputer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send therecords or floppy discs, to others to see on their computers. He could alsoprint his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computerartist needs an expensive laser printer.
