Do not miss out on the opportunity to have an unforgettable vacation when booking activities, hotels, and more in these fantastic cities.San Antonio, TXWhether you are looking for a historic look into this fantastic city, or seeking to spend the day getting some sun at one of the theme parks in the area, theres something for everyone. San Antonio is home to Sea World, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, the San Antonio Aquarium(水族馆), and other fun, family-friendly attractions. For a more historic look into the city, go on the San Antonio Grand Tour, the Alamo Trolley Tour, or book the San Antonio Explorer Pass.Mackinac Island, MIFor an adventure, Mackinac Island is the destination of choice. Sitting on Lake Huron, Mackinac Island is inviting, with the Grand Hotel Luncheon Buffet and Self-Guided Tour or a Mackinac Island Carriage Tour. If your attention is on a family vacation, admission to the Wings of Mackinac Tropical Butterfly Conservatory or a water adventure with Great Turtle Kayak Tours is a great addition.Orlando, FLIt wouldnt be summer without a trip to Orlando. For those who want to visit some of the hottest theme parks of all time, Orlando is home to Walt Disney World Theme Parks, Sea World Orlando, and Universal Orlando Resort. If you would rather skip the amusement parks and experience the more natural side of Orlando, there are options such as deep sea fishing in Gulf of Mexico and Orlando Zipline Tours at Florida EcoSafaris!21. What can you enjoy in San Antonio?A. Play in the hottest theme parks of all time.B. Visit a butterfly conservatory.C. Go deep sea fishing in a gulf.D. Have a taste of the citys history.22. Where should you go if you want to explore nature in Orlando?A. Florida EcoSafaris.B. Sea World Orlando.C. Walt Disney World Theme Parks.D. Wings of Mackinac Tropical Butterfly Conservatory.23. What do the three places have in common?A. They are famous for an adventure.B. They are fit for summer holidays.C. They lie in the same state.D. They all have a theme park.BGenerally speaking, people like those who have a good sense of humor.Sometimes a touch of humor might well enable us to win. Consider the case of a young friend of mine, who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum(最后通牒) about being late on the job. Although there was a good reason for Brians being late serious illness at home he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldnt work any longer. His boss was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.Yes, the boss was, as Brian entered the office at 9:35. The place was as quiet as a locker room (更衣室): everyone was hard at work. Brians boss came up to him. Suddenly, Brian forced a smile and stretched out his hand. “How do you do!” he said. “Im Brian. Im applying for a job, which, I understand, became available just 35 minutes ago. Doesnt the early bird get the worm?”The room exploded in laughter. The boss clamped off a smile and walked back to his office. Brian had saved his job, with the only tool that could win a laugh.Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying “no”, criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, its the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance(忍受力) than people in any other forum.24. Brian was late for his job because _.A. he got up lateB. he was seriously illC. he was caught in a traffic jamD. he was busy applying for a new job25. What can we infer about humor?A. It is the early bird.B. It is important in our lives.C. Brian often saved his job with humor.D. It can solve racial discriminations.26. What does the underlined phrase “clamped off” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. chargeB. tried to setC. gave upD. tried to hold back27. What can we learn from the text?A. Many people lack in a sense of humor.B. Brian was supposed to arrive at his office at 8: 30.C. It wasnt the first time that Brian came late for work.D. Humor is the most interesting way of solving problems.CDifferences in time zones complicate international phone calls. But even more important are different concepts of time and approaches to time in different cultures.People from the USA as well as other North Americans believe “Time is money”. This value of time is rooted in their ancestors. Early in the 17th century, their ancestors arrived on the Atlantic coast, a new, undeveloped land. To survive in the tough environment, they had to struggle day and night. Time meant so much to them that they had not even one second to waste. After decades of struggle, they developed the value of efficient use of time and passed it down. Thus far, the Americans are still eager to finish things quickly and are impatient with too reflective(深思熟虑的) people.In some countries, the American work style of speeding everything up will have no significance. In the Arab East, the more important you are, the faster service you get. Close relatives take absolute priority; non-relatives are kept waiting. In the Middle East, a deadline, which is often established to show the degree of urgency or importance of work, will do nothing but stop the Middle Easterners from working, because they consider it rude and overly demanding.Another aspect reflecting different concepts of time is the classification of monochronic-time and polychronic-time by Edward T Hall. People from monchronic(共时性的) cultures, such as the Germans, the Austrians, the Swiss and the Americans, do only one important thing at a time. In polychromic(多元时间模式的) cultures, people such as Arab, Asians and Latin Americans take an entirely opposite approach. They do several things at once. Time commitments, e.g. deadlines, schedules, are taken rather casually and changed often and easily. Miscommuication will arise when people from two cultures contact. Charlies Hawkins, a U.S. teacher, told me that many a time his appointments with Indians were interrupted constantly, not only by private phone calls, but also by long conversations with other people and even the neighbors children, which displeased and even annoyed him.28. Why did the ancestors of the North Americans believe “Time is money”?A. They had to work efficiently to survive.B. They got the idea from their past generations.C. They didnt like to deal with reflective people.D. They formed the habit of finishing work ahead of time.29. What can be concluded from Paragraph 3?A. Deadlines will make American people angry.B. In the Arab East, youd better speed everything up.C. Middle Easterners cant deal with demanding work.D. People from the Arab East attach importance to relationship.30. What can we learn about people from monochronic cultures?A. They tend to interrupt others constantly.B. They cant tolerate lateness or interruptions.C. They are more likely to change their schedules.D. They like to schedule several activities at the same time.31. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. The importance of the diversity of cultureB. The relationship between efficiency and cultureC. Different time values in different culturesD. Monochronic culture and polychronic cultureDSeveral recent studies have found that being randomly(随机地) assigned to a roommate of another race can lead to increased tolerance but also to a greater likelihood(可能性) of conflict.Recent reports found that lodging with a student of a different race may decrease prejudice and compel students to engage in more ethnically diverse friendships.An Ohio State University study also found that black students living with a white roommate saw higher academic success throughout their college careers. Researchers believe this may be caused by social pressure.In a New York Times article, Sam Roakye the only black student on his freshman year floor said that “if youre surrounded by whites, you have something to prove.”Researchers also observed problems resulting from pairing interracial students in residences.According to two recent studies, randomly assigned roommates of different race are more likely to experience conflicts so strained that one roommate will move out.An Indiana University study found that interracial roommates were three times as likely as two white roommates to no longer live together by the end of the semester.Grace Kao, a professor at Penn said she was not surprised by the findings. “This may be the first time that some of these students have interacted, and lived, with someone of a different race,” she said.At Penn, students are not asked to indicate race when applying for housing.“One of the great things about freshman housing is that, with some exceptions, the process throws you together randomly,” said Undergraduate Assembly chairman Alec Webley. “This is the definition of integration.”“Ive experienced roommate conflicts between interracial students that have both broken down stereotypes and reinforced stereotypes,” said one Penn resident advisor (RA). The RA of two years added that while some conflicts “provided more multicultural acceptance and melding (融合),” there were also “jarring cultural confrontations.”The RA said that these conflicts have also occurred among roommates of the same race.Kao said she cautions against forming any generalizations based on any one of the studies, noting that more background characteristics of the students need to be studies and explained.32. What can we learn from some recent studies?A. Conflicts between studies of different races are unavoidable.B. Students of different races are prejudiced against each other.C. Interracial lodging does more harm than good.D. Interracial lodging may have diverse outcomes.33. What does Sam Boakyes remark mean?A. White students tend to look down upon their black peers.B. Black students can compete with their white peers academically.C. Lack students feel somewhat embarrassed among white peers during the freshman year.D. Being surrounded by white peers motivates a black student to work harder to succeed.34. What does the Indians University study show?A. Interracial roommates are more likely to fall out.B. Few white students like sharing a room with a black peer.C. Roommates of different races just dont get along.D. Assigning students lodging randomly is not a good policy.35. What does Grace Kao say about interracial lodging?A. It is unscientific to make generalizations about it without further study.B. Schools should be cautious when making decisions about student lodging.C. Students racial background should be considered before lodging is assigned.D. Experienced resident advisors should be assigned to handle the problems.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Developing a Funny PersonalityPut yourself under the spotlight. Tell self-deprecating(自嘲的) jokes rather than make jokes at the expense of others. 36. Rodney Dangerfield made fun of both his sanity(理智) and his looks with this one: “I went to the psychiatrist (精神病医生), and he says Youre crazy. I tell him I want a second opinion. He says, Okay, youre ugly too! ”Know your audience. 37. Some people find that sensationalism causes them to laugh; others find that satire(讽刺) does the trick. Learn which is which, and deliver your jokes and anecdotes so that they apply to many different categories of humor and emotion at once.Mislead the mind. Misleading the mind is what we referred to earlier as surprise. 38. Verbal jokes use this element to the greatest level possible, trying to misdirect your attention in the same that magic tricks do.39. Good timing is really important, because if you give the brain too much time to work out a situation or joke, the funny moment will pass by. This is probably why jokes people have heard before dont work, as recognition dulls the humor because the brain is already well-prepared by experience. React quickly and strike while the humorous moment exists.Be observant. Look for the humor in everyday situations, and see what others dont. 40. A. Strike while the iron is hot.B. Different things make different people laugh.C. Surround yourself with people who are funny.D. More people will be more willing to laugh, instead of being laughed at.E. You can expand your reach a good deal by listening to other funny people.F. Often, the unnoticed humor that is standing right in front of our eyes has the most effect.G. This is when you create a difference between what someone expects to happen and what actually happens.第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节 完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。King Evan was so conscious about keeping his people happy and considered them as his own family.

Every one smiles at each other and this nonverbal communication shows being polite in the United States. But in China, smiling is not only 64. expression of happiness, but also a way to avoid 65.
