Everybody wears them, from the farmer to the lawyer and from models to housewives. But why have jeans become so popular？Youll get many answers. For some people they look cool, for others jeans are just comfortable.Jeans were first stronger trousers made for farm workers in the states of the American west. In the eastern part of the US jeans were hardly worn at all. They were connected with farm people and the workers. So the rich wouldnt like to wear them.It was James Dean and Marlon Brando that made them popular in movies and everyone started to wear them. They were a symbol of therebellionof young people during the 1950s and 1960s. So these new trousers were not allowed in American schools and sometimes in theatres and cinemas. As time went on，jeans became more acceptable. American people in Europe and Japan often wore them when they were not on duty to show that they were Americans. The trousers showed the world a happier way of life, something that people needed, especially after what they had gone through in World War II.Jeans had other advantages as well. They didnt need to be washed as often as other trousers and women didnt need to iron them. This became more important as more and more women started working and had less time for housework.Today jeans are an important part of our lives. They are always washed a few times before they are sold to give them a faded look.28. Jeans first appeared _.Ain eastern America Bin western America Cin Middle America Dall over America29. What is the possible meaning of the underlined “rebellion” in this passage?A奢侈 B活力 C清纯 D反叛30. What is the best title of the passage?AJeans - Symbol of WealthBJeans - Working Womens Best ChoiceCJeans - Popular Piece of Clothing in Our Daily LifeDJeans - Part of the Lives of Farm People and WorkersCOnce a circle lost a piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for itsmissing piece. But because it was not complete, it could only roll (滚动) very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers andthe sunshine along the way. It talked with worms. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit. So itleft them all by the side of the road and kept on looking for the missing piece. Then one day the circle found apiece that fit perfectly (完美). The circle put the missing piece into itself. It could be whole with nothingmissing. It was so happy and began to roll. As it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to seeflowers or talk to worms. It realized how different the world was when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad that itstopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled away slowly.Sometimes we are perfect when we lose something. A man who has everything is a poor man in someways. He will never have hopes, dreams or something better. He will never know someone is loving him orsomeone is giving him something he has always wanted or never had.We couldnt be perfect, but we must be brave enough to love, strong enough to forgive, kind enough toshare happiness with others and clever enough to know there is enough love around us and then we can alwayslive a wonderful time in our lives.31.

That iswhat I mean when I say writing has been a pleasure. I have never used the computer withthe thought that one more task had to be done.Like most writers, Willa Cather did not write books for the money that they brought her,but rather for the pleasure that came in their writing. Her works were, like her, simple and full of the vigor of her days in Nebraska, where she grew from child to youngwomanhood and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the great plain with its wildflowers, wheat fields and rivers.Its a rather strange thing about the flat country, she wrote later. It takes hold of you or it leaves you perfectly cold. A great many people find it very dull; they like a church tower,an old factory, a waterfall, the country all made to look like a German Christmas card.Butwhen I come to the open plain, something happens. Im home. I breathe differently.34. Willa Cather wrote because she found writing _.A. simple and livelyB. opened up a road to successC. neither too hard nor too easyD. interesting and enjoyable35.

It was a colorful world of wild flowers.36. When she said It takes hold of you or it leaves you perfectly cold., Willa Cather meant that _.A. you either love the place or hate itB. you decide either to stay or to leaveC. some find the place warm; others find it coldD. some find the place peaceful; others find it wild37.

He looked thin and hungry, but his blue eyes were determined(坚定的). He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance, and above all, he knew how to make people laugh.His own father had died from drinking too much. And his mother wasnt really able to look after Charlie. She was often sick in mind and had to be sent to hospital. So he was sent to a home for children who had no parents. He was cold and poor there and the children were punished for small mistakes. Thirty years later this same Charlie Chaplin became the king of comedy. Many people must have seen some of his films. People everywhere have sat and laughed at them until tears flowed down their eyes. Even people who dont understand English can enjoy Chaplins films because they are mostly silent. It isnt what he said that makes us laugh. His comedy doesnt depend upon words. It depends upon little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world.
