d. the usage of tree rootsb 1. american and british people use different greetings. in the usa the commonest greeting is “hi”. in britain it is “hello!” or “how are you?”. “hi!” is creeping(不知不觉地进入) into british, too. when they are introduced to someone, the americans say, “glad to know you.” the british say, “how do you do?” or “pleased to meet you.” when americans say “good-bye”, they nearly always add, “have a good day.” or “have a good trip.” to friends and strangers alike. britons are already beginning to use “have a good day.” 2. the british usually use “have got” in the sense of “have”. the americans hardly ever do. am. e: do you have a car, room, etc.? yes, i do. br. e: have you got a car, room, etc.? yes, i have.3. there are a number of differences between american and british english in the spelling of words, e.g. check (usa) / cheque (uk). many american words ending in “or”, e.g. honor, labor are spelt in british english with an “our,” e.g. honour, labour. many verbs in american english with “ize” or “izing” forms, e.g. organize, realizing are spelt in br. e with “ise” or “ising”, e.g. organise, realising. in american english, “practice” is used both for the verb and noun. in br. e, the verb is spelt “practise”, and the noun “practice.” in american english, one writes “traveler,” while in british english, one writes“traveller”. 4. it was once predicted that british and american english would become separate languages finally. but the opposite has happened. the links (联系) between the two countries are so strong that linguistically (语言上地), and probably culturally (文化上地) too, they are closer together than ever.60. the americans hardly say “_” a. good-bye. have a good day! b. glad to know you! c. hi!d. have you got a car?61. what does the third paragraph talk about?a. there are lots of differences in spelling between am. e and br. e.b. why do the americans and the british use different spellings?c. there are few differences in spelling between am. e and br. e. d. the different usages of words in am. e and br. e.62. which of the following is true?a. the two languages will become separate languages. b. american english will be used more and more. c. the two languages will be closer and closer. d. british english will be used more and more. 63. the underlined word “predicted” means _.a. explained b. foretold c. considered d. provedcwhen i was about 12, i had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings. week by week her list grew: i was very thin, i was not a good student, i talked too much, i was too proud, and so on. i tried to bear all this as long as i could. at last, i became very angry. i ran to my father with tears in my eyes. he listened to me quietly, and then he asked. “are the things she says true or not? janet, didnt you ever wonder what youre really like? well, you now have that girls opinion. go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. pay no attention to the other things she said.” i did as he told me. to my great surprise, i discovered that about half the things were true. some of them i couldnt change (like being very thin), but a good number i couldand suddenly i wanted to change. for the first time i went to a fairly clear picture of myself. i brought the list back to daddy. he refused to take it. “thats just for you,” he said. “you know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. but you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. when something said about you is true, youll find it will be of help to you. our world is full of people who think they know your duty. dont shut your ears. listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.” daddys advice has returned to me at many important moments. in my life, ive never had a better piece of advice. 64. what did the father do after he had heard his daughters complaint? a. he told her not to pay any attention to what her “enemy” had said and just do what she wanted to do. b. he criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings. c. he told her to write down all her “enemy” had said and pay attention only to the things that were true. d. he refused to take the list and want to have a look at it. 65. what does “week by week her list grew” mean? a. she made a list of my shortcomings and kept on adding new ones so it was growing longer and longer. b. week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me. c. i was having more and more shortcomings as time went on. d. week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious. 66. why did her father listen to her quietly? a. because he believed that what her daughters “enemy” said was mostly true. b. because he had been so angry with her daughter and wanted to keep silent. . c. because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment. d. because he was not quite sure which girl was telling the truths. 67. which do you think would be the best title for this passage? a. not an enemy, but the best friend b. the best advice ive ever had c. my father d. my childhooddyou never played the video dance game? now such games are used to help lose weight!like many other teenage boys, jones loves sports. but at 5 feet, 175 pounds, he found his weight in trouble. his doctor wanted him to lose 50 pounds so that he may be a good football game player by the end of the summer.jones chose the popular dance revolution video game at home to increase his activity. he had lost about 10 pounds by changing his diet. now, after two weeks playing the game, he has lost another 10!a health study is being done by an insurance company. the company hopes that the game will lead to better health and lower costs. “obesity claims (肥胖索赔) last year cost us $ 77 million. we have to cut those costs,” said a member of the insurance group. the company provides a game console (游戏主机), a dance mat and software for the six-month, $ 60,000 study.the study is more than a commercial thing of an insurance company. it is widely supported by physical education and health professionals.in west virginia, 43% of the nearly 6,000 children examined for heart disease risk were considered over-weighted; more than 25% were too fat. “we are in a crisis of childhood obesity not only in west virginia but in america,” said a researcher.researchers are now looking at the potential for improving effects by using the game. a teacher in west virginia has been using the video games in her classes since last fall. she reported that the game does improve heart health as well as eye-hand co
