Passage 4
If you are hungry，what will you do? You may eat your favorite meal and be contented after that．Just like your stomach，your mind can be hungry．But it never lets yon know，because you keep it busy thinking about your dream lover，favorite star and many such absurd（荒谬的）things．
The hunger of the mind can be satisfied through a lot of reading．Reading has been the most helpful tool used by us from childhood．There are so many books which will answer all your questions．When you read a book，you don't just run your eyes through the lines，but your mind also explains it to you．The interesting part of the book is kept in your mind as a seed（种子）．Now this seed is unknowingly（不知不觉地）used by you in the future to develop new ideas．
The more books you read，the more your mind will open up．Also this improves your speech skills a lot and makes a big contribution（贡献）to your vocabulary．Please give food to your thoughts by reading，reading and more reading!
96．According to the passage， can make your mind open up．
A．reading more books B．eating more food
C．doing more exercise D．thinking about more questions
97．The meaning of the underlined word “contented” in the passage is ．
A．骄傲的 B．满足的 C．难过的 D．失望的
98．If you read more books， ．
A．your stomach will feel full B．you won't have new ideas
C．you won't need delicious food D．you can learn more words
99．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A．Mind never lets you know it's hungry．
B．When you read a book，your mind does nothing．
C．You can get the answers to your questions from books．
D．The writer wishes us to do more reading．
100．The best title（标题）of this passage is ．
A．The ways of reading B．Improving your English
C．Feeding your mind D．Eating favorite food

Passage 5
Gift giving is different from culture to culture and person to person．
When giving gifts，sometimes color is important．For example，for many Chinese people around the world，red is a lucky color，and people often like to wrap（包装）gifts in this color．However，do you know that in Korea（朝鲜），red is a color of death? That is why you should not wrap gifts in this color if you are giving a gift to a Korean person．
What about western countries? In western countries，the color of wrapping paper is not really important．But color does matter when giving flowers，especially roses．You should not give red roses to a western person you don't know very well because they are a symbol（象征）of love．You could give yellow roses instead as these are a symbol of friendship．You could also send pink roses as girls to say thank you．
What other things should you remember when giving gifts to someone from a different culture? Well，one thing you should keep in mind is the person's religion（宗教）．When choosing a gift for a Muslim（回教徒的）or Jewish（犹太族的）friend，you should never get food including pork，or things made from pigskin．Another thing that you should not get for a Muslim person is alcohol（酒）．
根据短文内容简要回答下面问题。
101．In which country do people think red is the color of death?
102．How can we show our friendship to the western friends?
103．Can we give a Muslim friend a bottle of alcohol as a gift?
104．How many colors are mentioned（提到）in this passage?
105．What’s the main idea of this passage?
Passage 6
Last week our reporters asked how people prefer to shop．People were asked where they preferred to shop，what they bought，and about advantages and disadvantages．
Larry is a twenty-seven-year-old engineer．He buys all his food，clothes and other things he needs in the shops near his home．He likes the friendly shop owners and the fresh food．However，he says there are two main problems．First，buying things from small shops costs more money．Secondly，he can't find the tracks he reads in the small bookstore near his home．He has to go to the big bookstore downtown（市中心）．
Jan is a thirty-year-old mother of two children．She and her husband both work as teachers．They like to shop at the mall with their children because it's safe and clean．There are always interesting things for the whole family to see．Another advantage is that the prices are good．Malls also have many more kinds and sizes of everything than mall shops．Jan says that the main disadvantages are that the mall is always crowded，and it's so big that children can easily get lost．
Roger is a twenty-year-old student who prefers to shop on the Internet．He thinks the main advantage is that he can shop at any hour of the day or night．Besides this，he can buy fascinating（吸引人的）things from all over the world．According to Roger，the biggest difficulty is that it isn't safe to buy things on the Internet．Last year，someone stole his credit card（信用卡）number and bought things with it．Also，once he paid for things and never received them．
根据短文内容，完成下列句子。（所填内容可能是单词或短语）
106．Larry thinks the shop owners are very ．
107．From the passage we know that the big bookstores downtown are from Larry’s house．

Many Chinese students think American students enjoy more freedom than them at school．But American schools also have their rules．If the students break the rules，they will get punishment，too．
On the first day of a new term，128 students of Morton High School were sent home for wearing the wrong clothes．There are altogether 1,200 students in the school．Usually only 20 students break the school dress rule every day．So the headmaster Theresa Mayerik said it was the worst new term she had ever seen．
At Morton High School，students' favorite clothing such as baggy（宽大的）trousers，low-necked shirts and tank tops（紧身短背心）are not allowed in classrooms．Some students think they have the right to choose what to wear，but the headmaster doesn't think so．“I'd be supportive if half the school was sent home，because 99% will get the message that our school are for education．” “Freedom” does not mean “free of restrictions（约束）”．That is to say there is no total freedom in the world，no matter in the US or in China．

The time may be
Such a time rule was devised（设计）by Sir Sanford Fleming（1827-1915）．He was an engineer who lived in Canada．He held a meeting in 1884 to discuss the time problem．He suggested that there should be 24 meridians（子午线）dividing the world into 24 time zones（时区）．The zero meridian would pass through the village of Greenwich near London．The time at Greenwich would be called Greenwich Mean Time，and at each of the 24 meridian lines，the time would go forward or backwards by one hour．
Twenty-seven nations agreed to this suggestion，and since then GMT has been the centre of time-keeping for all nations．Most nations have only one time zone，however，large nations such as the USA and Australia are divided into several time zones．
