He and his five-year-old son were decorating the Christmas tree, and a little boy came to the front door begging. If you ever visit Mexico, you will see that the people there take begging as nothing to get upset about and nothing to get embarrassed by.So, this little boy came to the door, a boy about the same age as my students son. The father and the son went to the front door, and the father went back with his five-year-old son and said to him, “Give him one of your toys.” At the words, the little boy quickly picked up one toy, and his father said to him, “No, no, give him your favorite toy.”And the little boy, like a little tiger, said, “No way!” He cried; he refused. But the father, like a big tiger in a way, insisted gently, “No, you must give him one of your favorite toys.”And finally the boy, with his head down, picked up a toy he had just gotten. The father waited in the living room, and the boy walked to the front door with the toy in his hand. The father waited and waited.What do you think happened?After a couple of minutes, his son came running back into the living room, his face lighted up. “Daddy,” he said, “can I do that again?” I think I have got the answer to the question.21.

Elio Motors plans to make such a tiny car named the Elio. Its two seats sit front and back instead of side by side. The driver is positioned in the center with the passenger directly behind. The starting price for the car is just $6,800. It has only one door, on the left side, which cuts a few hundred dollars off the manufacturing costs. Having three wheels also makes it cheaper. It has air conditioning, power windows and door locks and an AM/FM radio. More features can be ordered through Elios long list of suppliers. Elio will also sell the cars directly through its own stores and not through franchised dealers (特约经销商). Paul Elio dreamed as a kid that he would one day own a car pany called Elio Motors. In 2008, tired of high gas prices, he started working on a car that burns gas in a more effective way. Equally important to him was creating U.S. manufacturing jobs and making the car inexpensive enough to attract buyers who might otherwise be stuck in their old, unreliable cars. “Whatever matters to you, this can move the needle on it,” he said. Already, more than 27,000 people have reserved (预订) one. Paul hopes to make 250,000 cars a year by 2016. So far, reservation holders are those who will use the Elio as a second or third car for work. Finally, though, he believes the car will interest high school and college students as well as used-car drivers who want something newer and more reliable.28. Which of the following shows the design of the Elio? ( = wheel, = seat)29. Paragraph 2 shows that the Elio _.A. will be available in most stores B. is sold at affordable prices C. has a fixed temperature D. does no harm to the environment30. The underlined words “move the needle” in Paragraph 3 probably mean “_”.A. take a chance B. stand in the way C. break into pieces D. make a difference31. What would be the best title for the text?A. The history of Elio Motors B. Cool car or stupid vehicle?C. Paul Elio: a kid with big dreams D. What car to choose: new or used?DI travel a lot, and I find out different “styles” of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”Foreign tourists are often confused in Japan because most streets there dont have names; in Japan, people use landmarks（地标）in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “its about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They dont know.Its true that a person doesnt know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I dont know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I dont know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!32. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place they usually _.A. describe the place carefullyB. refer to recognizable buildings and placesC. show him a map of the placeD. tell him the names of the streets33. Which is the place where people measure distance in time?A. New York. B. Kansas.C. Los Angeles. D. Iowa.34. People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer _.A. in order to save timeB. as a testC. for fun D. so as to be polite35. What can we infer from the text?A. Its useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.B. People have similar understandings of politeness.C. Its important for travelers to understand cultural differences.D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.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。English can be a difficult language to learn, but there are certain things you can do to learn the language a lot faster.
