题目内容

【题目】Except for a few times, Americans are not big present-givers. There's no exchange of presents among business people, and if one American tries to give another a present, it may look like that he wants to bribe (贿赂) him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to give presents to others, but among ourselves we don't see the need for presents.

Even friends may never exchange presents. When I go to foreign countries, I try to bring back little things for close friends, but nobody would feel unhappy if I didn't. I don't often remember a friend's birthday, and few people outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, I'd get unpleasant. But a present from a foreigner - that kind from his or her homeland — won't go wrong, except to government employees (政府职员) who can't be given presents.

You usually open a present at once and in front of the person who gives it except Christmas and birthday presents. You should only say, "It's so nice. Thanks…" when you get Christmas or birthday presents.

You may want to bring a bottle of wine (葡萄酒) or flowers to a dinner party, but you're never asked to. Nobody will mind if you bring wine, but your friend may not use it that evening.

At Christmas we often give presents to our family and sometimes our friends. We also give presents to people who have been helpful during the year- doormen, babysitters, housecleaners, newspaper senders— anyone who has often helped us.

A. American business people don’t want presents because they are rich enough.

【题目】One day,while I was waiting for my father, I saw a little boy, around two years old, running freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short distance. The boy had a big smile on his face as if he had just been set free from some sort of prison( 监狱) . The boy would then fall to the grass, get up, without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could, again, still with a smile on his

face, as if nothing had happened.

At that moment, I thought to myself, “ Why aren’t most adults this way?” Most adults, when

they fall down, make a big deal out of it and don’t even make a second attempt. They would be so

embarrassed that they would not try again if someone saw them fall. Or, because they fall, they

would find a good excuse for themselves that they’re not fit for it. They would end up being too afraid

to attempt again for fear of failure( 失败) .

However, with kids, when they fall down, they don’t consider their falling down as a failure,

instead, they treat it as a learning experience. They try again and again until they succeed. The

answer must be that they have not connected “ falling down” with the word “ failure” . What’s more,

they probably think to themselves that it’s quite okay to fall down and that it’s not wrong to do so. In

other words, they allow themselves to make mistakes, so they remain energetic.

I was deeply impressed by the boy’s persistence( 坚持不懈) and the manner in which he did.

【1】What did the little boy do when he fell down?

A. He cried and lay on the grass. B. He asked his mother for help.

C. He got up and went on running. D. He got up and stood there crying.

【2】In the writer’s opinion,what might the little boy regard his falling down as?

A. A failure. B. A joke. C. An interesting game. D. A learning experience.

【3】In the writer’s opinion,why can’t many adults succeed?

A. Because they are afraid of being embarrassed.

B. Because they can’t find a good excuse.

C. Because once they fail, they won’t attempt again.

D. Because they don’t allow themselves to make mistakes.

【4】The underlined word “ attempt” in Paragraph 2 means .

A. 尝试 B. 放弃 C. 面对 D. 怀疑

【5】What does the writer want to tell us?

A. Practice makes perfect. B. Failure is the mother of success.

C. All roads lead to Rome. D. Each coin has two sides.

【题目】Thousands of years ago, in the south of ancient China, there lived a man called Shennong with an ox (牛) head and a human body. After seeing many local people were badly ill, he built ladders(梯子) and houses on a high mountain to hold hundreds of medical plants. To remember him, people named the place Shennongjia.

The story makes Shennongjia in Hubei a famous place for tourists. Travelling there is an exciting experience, because you can see beautiful sights of the four seasons from different altitudes(海拔). “When the bottom of the mountain is summer, the top is spring and while the foot of the hill is autumn, the top is covered with ice，” local people say of the special climate(气候) of Shennongjia.

Shennongjia is also home to 5，000 kinds of animals and plants. Many animals in danger live there, such as the golden monkey, the clouded leopard and the Asian black bear.

One interesting thing about Shennongjia is its story of wild men. Some people once said that they saw very big footprints(脚印). Yet so far, scientists haven't believed it is true and some say they are just bears.

The beautiful place has received a new title. On July 17, 2016, Shennongjia Forestry District was added(增加) to United Nations World Heritage list as a natural site. China now has 50 world heritage sites(遗址), second only to Italy in the world.

【1】In Shennongjia, ________．

A. there are many medical stores along the way

C. there are 500 kinds of animals and plants

D. scientists have proved there are wild men there
