6.Critical Reading
Critical reading applies to non-fiction writing in which the author puts forth a position or seeks to make a statement.Critical reading is active reading.(36)E.Here are the things you should do to be a critical reader.
•Consider the context of what is written. 
You may be reading something that was written by an author from a different cultural context than yours.Or,you may be reading something written some time ago in a different time context than yours.(37)G.
•Question opinions made by the author. 
Don't accept what is written at face value.(38)C.Look for facts,examples,and statistics that provide support.Also,look to see if the author has involved the work of authorities.
•(39)A.
Assumptions are whatever the author must believe is true in order to propose opinions.However,in many cases,you must read carefully in order to identify any indirect assumption.Once you identify an assumption,you must decide whether or not the assumption is valid.
•Evaluate the sources the author uses. 
In doing this,be certain that the sources are credible as well as relevant.(40)F.For example,studies done by Einstein in the early 20th century may not be appropriate if the writer is discussing the current state of knowledge in physics.

B.What is written may very well reflect the author's position
C.Before accepting it,be certain that the author provides abundant support for any view made
D.Look to see that what is written is consistent with what others have written about the subject

7.Building Trust in a Relationship Again
Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences,(16)B Trust is a risk.But you can't be successful when there's a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.
Unfortunately,we've all been victims of betrayal.Whether we've been suffer from,lied to,misled,or cheated on,there are different levels of losing trust.Sometimes people simply can't trust anymore,(17)E.It's understandable,but if you're willing to build trust in a relationship again,we have some steps you can take to get you there.
(18)AHaving confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well-being.
(19)CIf you've been betrayed,you are the victim of your circumstance.But there's a difference between being a victim and living with a"victim mentality".At some point in all of our lives,we'll have our trust tested or violated.
You didn't lose"everything".Once trust is lost,what is left?Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle,look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life(20)Ginstead,it's a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.

A.Learn to really trust yourself.
B.It is putting confidence in someone.
C.Stop regarding yourself as the victim.
D.Remember that you can expect the best in return.
E.They've been too badly hurt and they can't bear to let it happen again.
F.This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future  relationships.
G.Seeing the positive side of things doesn't mean you're ignoring what happened.
11.In the past,Americans used to think of the United States as a"melting pot"of immigrants(移民) from many different cultures to the United States,their old ways melted away and they became part of a completely new culture.The United States was likened to a big pot of soup,which had bits of flavor(味道,滋味) from each different culture.All of the different cultures were so well blended(混合,掺杂) together that it formed its own new flavor.?
Today,Americans realize that the simple"melting pot"theory is less true.Instead,different groups of people keep many of their old customs.Often groups of Americans from the same culture band together.They live together in distinctive communities,such as"Chinatowns"or"Little Italy"-areas populated almost exclusively(惟一,仅) by Americans of a single ethnic group-which can be found in many large American cities.Living in ethnic neighborhoods gives new Americans the security of sharing a common language and common traditions with people who understand them.?
In time,however,people from different backgrounds mix together.They also mix with native-born Americans.Old traditions give way to new customs.The children of immigrants are often eager to adopt new,American ways.They often want to dress in American?fashions,to speak English and to follow?American?social customs.By one estimate(估计),about 80 percent of European immigrants marry outside their own ethnic groups by the time they reach the third generation.Third generation means that their great-grandparents were immigrants.Yet as successive generations become more"Americanized",they often retain significant elements of their ethnic country.

28.What does the text mainly talk about?D
A.The American way of life.
B.Immigrants and native-born Americans.
C.Old traditions and new customs.
D.The multi-cultural society of the United States.
29.Why does the author mention"Chinatowns"in the second paragraph?A
A.To give an example that many people keep their old customs.
B.To show that Chinese cherish their old traditions.
C.To contrast(对比) the Chinese way of life with that of the Italian's.
D.To give an example of the Americanization.?
30.The underlined word"ethnic"in the last sentence most probably meansB.
A.moral
B.national
C.cultural
D.social
31.The underlined word"Americanized"generally meansD.
A.美国人

8.Pubs have been the cornerstone of British society for hundreds of years:Over the years,British Pubs have developed many traditions.Had you visited a pub in the 1990s,yon might have noticed the ringing of the bell around 11p.m.,signaling that the pub was about to close.(36)E
During World War I,the British Government decided that pubs must close at nine thirty in the evening (later to change to 11p.m.).(37)BRinging a bell was a clear signal to let everyone know that the  time was about to close.
(38)GBefore that depending on what kind of entertainment a place offered,there was a different license,for example a cinema needed a different license form a theater.A pub needed a different license from a night cafe.The different licenses that existed at the time were combined into one.Additionally,every three years the person responsible for the pub had to renew their license which was valid for only one  location.This period of validity was extended to ten years and also the license was able to transfer from one location to another.(39)A It also became much easier and cheaper for owners to put on entertainment such as music bands.Cutting down on needless paperwork was predicted to save l.97billion pounds over ten years!One of the biggest effects,however,was that ninety years after the 11p.m.closing time was introduced,pubs were able to decide when they would close.(40)D

A.Therefore,it became easier to apply for and process applications.
B.This was to minimize the risk of tired workers and potential loss in productivity.
C.British troops were fighting fierce battles with their enemies.
D.And they can have more flexibility in terms of opening hours.
E.How did this come about?
F.Do you want to visit a British pub?
G.Later,however,there was a major shake up in the licensing laws.
