Dear Jose ,

  You have asked me for suggestions on how to get along in the United States.It is difficult to give advice, but I have found the following“dos”and“don'ts”helpful.

  As a   1   , it isn't easy to find anyone to   2   in a big city.However, here are some suggestions.First get or borrow   3   !Walk him several times a day!Americans love dogs and usually stop   4   to anyone with a dog.Then, try to eat in a cafeteria(食堂).People generally   5   the same tables and will sometimes talk to you   6   they see that you are a(an)  7  .Next, take your dirty clothes to a laundry(洗衣店)!It takes about an hour to wash and dry, and many people   8   there.They often pass the   9   talking to the other customers.  10   ask for information from a woman, if you are a   11  ; and from a man, if you are a woman!It seems to get   12   results for a reason I can't understand.Learn the   13   “Please”, “Thank you”, and“You're welcome”before you come and use them all the time!They usually work like magic(魔术).

  There are some things you shouldn't.Don't tell the truth when people   14   “How are you?”They only   15   the answer to be“Fine”.Never ask people their   16   -especially women!Everyone wants to be young.Don't tell heavy people they are   17  .Tell them they are losing   18  .Everyone here wants to be   19  .Don't be late for appointment!When someone says six o'clock,   20   be there by six.Americans respect time and expect everyone to be“on time”.

  Above all, don't worry!Just follow my advice and bring a lot of money and you will get along.I hope I have been of some help to you.

  Who are the most beautiful women in the world? Looking at the records, people might think Venezuelan women are.

  They win the Miss Latin America, Miss Universe, and Miss World contests more frequently than women from any other country.In Venezuela, the term “Miss” as in “Miss Universe” is an honored title.

  These days, people in some cultures consider beauty contests to be silly.They have tried to stop these contests, saying the contests treat women as objects and place too much importance on women’s looks.But in Latin America, beauty contests are a source of pride.

  Are Venezuelan women really more beautiful than other women? “They are not really more beautiful here,” says Selena, who trains girls for the contest.“It’s just that the girls here work harder and prepare more than anyone else.”

  The preparation takes many hours a day.The contestants stretch their bodies and practice their walks down the runway.They work on their speeches and practice answering questions such as, “Whom do you admire most in the world?”

  It isn’t easy.One Miss Universe winner immediately put on 20 pounds after the contest.She said the only thing she wanted to do after the contest was to eat.The cost is high as well.Fortunately the television station that holds the contest pays the costs.

  Yet most of the contestants say it’s worth the effort.A former Miss Universe is now mayor of a district in a large city.Although she had no political experience before that, she has been asked to run for higher political office.Another winner has her own television show.Winners have an advantage they could not get anywhere else.“It’s the only chance you have to make it,” says one contestant.“You can’t get these opportunities any other way.”

The passage is mainly about ________.

[  ]

A.

beauty contests around the world

[  ]

A.

they are more beautiful

B.

C.

D.

[  ]

A.

they gain more fame from beauty contests

B.

the money spent in beauty contests is worth while

C.

they gain an advantage over anyone else in politics

D.

The day finally came, when I had to leave the warm home where I’d grown up. I ran to the back yard, as tears came up from my heart. Suddenly I   36 a hand rest on my shoulder. I looked up to   37 my grandfather. “It isn’t   38  , is it, Billy?” he said softly.

He gently   39  my hand in his, and then we walked, hand in hand, to the front yard,   40  a huge red rose-bush sat alone.

“What do you see here, Billy?” he asked. I looked at the flowers, not knowing   41  to say, and then answered, “I see something soft and   42  , grandpa.”

He pulled me   43  . “It isn't just the roses that are beautiful, Billy. It’s that special place in your heart that makes them so.” “Billy, I   44  these roses when my first son was born.

Then, as a young man of only 20, a terrible war robbed him of his life.” Grandpa slowly stood up. “Never say good-bye, Billy. Never   47  to the sadness and the loneliness. Instead, I want you to remember the joy and the   48  when you first said hello to a friend.”

A year later, my grandpa became very   49  .Then all members of the family

were   50  back, and I returned to the old house. When it came to my   51  , I took his hand as   52  as he had once taken mine.

“Hello, grandpa,” I   53  .His eyes slowly opened and said, “Hello, my friend.” With a brief   54  he died. Suddenly, and truly, I knew what he had   55  about never saying good-bye — about refusing to give in to sadness.

阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案。

       It isn't strictly true that one half of the world is rich and the   other half is poor. It's one third that is very rich and two-thirds   that are very poor.

  

       People in the rich countries don't realize the great difference   between them and those in the poorer countries. A very simple example   is that a dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in   the poorer countries. A fisherman in south America may be catching   fish which is processed (加工) into pet food, and his own children are   not getting enough to eat for their bodies to develop properly.

  

       Although a lot of the world's natural resources like oil come from   these poorer countries, people in the richer countries are probably   using sixty times as much of these resources as a person in Asia or   Africa. And it's the richer countries that decide what kind of prices   they are ready to pay for these resources. And the prices the richer   countries get for their own exports (出口货), however, are always   rising. So they are getting richer and richer and the poorer countries   are getting poorer.

  

(1)  It's ___________ of the world that is very rich and __________        that are very poor.

[    ]

A. one half; the other half        

B. one-third; two-thirds

C. two-thirds; one-third        

D. one-third; two-third     

(2) A dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in the

poorer countries because __________. 

[    ]

A. the dog and the cat are more important than a child in the poorer countries        

B. the dog and cat are richer than a child in the poorer countries        

C. there are great differences between people in the richer    countries and poorer countries        

D. the poor children like to eat worse than the pet animals     

(3)  The prices of the resources should be decided __________.

[    ]

A. by the richer countries        

B. by the poorer countries        

C. mainly by the poorer countries        

D. mainly by the richer countries     

(4) __________ is probably using __________ as much of the world's natural resources as ____________.          

[    ]

A. A person in the developed countries; sixty times; a person in the developing countries        

B. A person in the richer countries; sixty times; two persons  in the poorer countries        

C. A person in the poorer countries; sixty times; a person in the richer countries        

D. A person in the richer countries; sixty times; a lot of people in Asia or Africa     

(5) The result is that ____________.

[    ]

A. the poorer countries are getting richer and the richer countries are getting poorer      

B. the richer countries are getting richer and richer and the  poorer countries are getting richer too      

C. the richer countries are getting richer and richer and the poorer countries are getting poorer      

D. the richer countries are getting poorer and the poorer countries are getting poorer too.
