World's hardest word

British people have always been good at saying “I’m sorry”. They used to be so good at it that they would apologize (道歉) for things that weren’t even their fault (错误).
　 However, the British seem to be losing touch with their art. According to a new book by British writer Max Davidson, instead of saying “I’m sorry” when they do something wrong, British people prefer to choose their words carefully.
　 In his book, “Sorry...The Hardest Word and How to Use It”, Davidson writes about a number of recent apologies(道歉). One example is of British television host Jeremy Clarkson. He described Gordon Brown, then UK prime minister (首相), as “a one-eyed Scottish idiot (笨蛋)”. (Brown is blind in his left eye.)
　 Clarkson was forced to apologize. He said: “In the heat of the moment, I made a comment about the prime minister. Now I apologize on reflection.” Davidson says the apology was just “going through the motions (做表面文章)”. Clarkson is not the only one. The best example may come from a UK MP (议员) Tessa Jowell. She said to the public: “If you feel our government falls short of what you expect, then I say sorry for that.”
　 Jowell said “sorry”. But she is actually saying it’s not the government’s fault but the voters’ (选民的) fault for expecting too much from the government.
　 Perhaps those people with influence feel they may lose too much by apologizing. But as a teenager, would you really want to lose a close friend, just because you couldn’t say something as simple as, “I’m sorry”? That would be hard to forgive (原谅).
61. What does the first sentence in the second paragraph mean?
A. The British are still good at apologizing.
B. The British like to say sorry for everything they have done.
C. The British don’t want to say "I’m sorry" now.
D. The British lose too much by saying "sorry".
62. We can tell from the story that Clarkson’s apology was ___________.
A. sincere 　　　　　 B. friendly　　　　　 　C. rude 　　　　　　　　　D. insincere

63. According to Tessa Jowell, it’s ___________ fault for expecting too much.
A. the voters’ 　　　　B. the government’s　　　 C. the president’s 　　　　　D. her
64. The story mainly tells us that _____.
A. British people used to be polite and kind
B. British people choose their words carefully to apologize
C. British people like to go through the motions
D. British people are expecting too much from the government

65.The writer develops the passage mainly by __________.

A. providing special examples

B. following the natural time order

C. giving out a cause and analyzing(分析)its effects

D. comparing opinions from different countries

Warm weather and sunny days mean it’s barbecue (烧烤) season in the US. These days, when people say they’re going to a barbecue, they usually mean that they’re going to an outdoor event where food is cooked over a grill (烤架). Popular foods barbecue include hamburgers, hot dogs, and grilled vegetables.
    Barbecue fans say that this is not real barbecue; it’s just grilling. True barbecue – also called BBQ – is an American tradition that is as old as the country itself.
    The first president of the United States, George Washington, wrote about going to a barbecue. Barbecue refers to meat that is cooked for a very long time (sometimes as long as 24 hours) over low heat from a wood fire. The smell of the burning wood adds flavor(味道) to the meat, which becomes soft as it cooks.
    Different parts of the US have different ways of making barbecue. In Texas, people often use beef. In North and South Carolina, pork is the most common. In Kansas City, pork ribs (猪肋排) are the specialty. Each region says that its own barbecue is the best. There are barbecue contests every year, and even whole magazines about the art of making  great barbecue.
    Most Americans don’t have the time or patience(耐心) to dig a hole, fill it with special wood, light a fire and then cook meat carefully over it all day and night. So when they want real barbecue, they go to restaurants that do the hard work for them. For those who want to have their own, easy barbecues, there’s always grilling.

58. ___________ adds a special flavor to the meat.

59. What does the underlined word “region” mean?
  A. house             B. place           C. people                D. meat
60. What does this text mainly talk about?
  A. How to grill foods.                B. Barbecue culture in the US.

I was walking down the road one day when my cell phone rang.   36   voice on the other end spoke to me, “Dad, please come back soon. I miss you so much!” I thought that it was a wrong number.
