阅读理解（第一节20小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分）第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c、d）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项标号涂黑。awhen my family moved to america in 2010 from a small village in guangdong, china, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. one of the rules is that young people should always respect elders. unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the united states. i had a part-time job as a waiter in a chinese restaurant. one time, when i was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. i told her that i had made sure they got their food quickly because i always respect the elderly. as soon as i said that, her face showed great displeasure. my manager, who happened to hear what i said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. i then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. after the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry. in my village in china, people are proud of being old. not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience. however, in the united states, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. when i told the couple in the restaurant that i respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. i had told them something they didnt want to hear. after that, i changed the way i had been with older people. it is not that i dont respect them any more; i still respect them, but now i dont show my feelings through words. by jack41. jack brought the couple their food very fast because _. a. the manager asked him to do so b. he respected the elderlyc. the couple wanted him to do so d. he wanted more pay42. when jack called the couple “elderly”, they became _. a. nervous b. satisfied c. unhappy d. excited43. in jacks hometown, _. a. people dislike being called “old” b. people are proud of being oldc. many people reach the age of seventy or eighty d. the elderly are the first to get food in restaurantsbtales from animal hospital david

it is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven. your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. you almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. they feel that the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes. many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them. six percent of workers in britain took the decision to downshift last year.one couple who downshifted is daniel and liz. they used to work in central london. he was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. they would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs, leaving their two children with a nanny. most evenings daniel wouldnt get home until eight or nine oclock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to new york for meetings. they both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of wales. “i always wanted to have a farm then,” says daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. its taken some getting used to, but its been worth it. we have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. however, i think its made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier.liz, however, is not quite sure. “i used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. im not really a country girl, but i suppose im gradually getting used to looking after the animals. one thing i do like, though, is being able to see more of my children. my advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all.”50the passage tells us that .apeople seldom work long hours to make moneybpeople hardly buy more things than necessarycpeople are sure everything they own is in the right placedpeople realize there is more to life than just making money51when daniel was a reporter he _.alived in central london bdisliked his jobcmissed his children dwas well paid52daniel and liz both agree that the move to the farm _.awas easy to organize bhas improved family lifecwas extremely expensive dhas been a total success dhe came into the room to shut the windows while we were still in bed and i saw he looked ill. he was shivering, his face was white, and he walked slowly as though it ached to move.whats the matter, schatz?ive got a headache.you better go back to bed.no. im all right.you go to bed. ill see you when im dressed.but when i came downstairs he was dressed, sitting by the fire, looking a very sick and miserable boy of nine years. when i put my hand on his forehead i knew he had a fever.you go up to bed, i said, youre sick.im all right, he said.when the doctor came he took the boys temperature.whats is it? i asked him.one hundred and two.downstairs, the doctor left three different medicines in different colored capsules（胶囊） with instructions for giving them. one was to bring down the fever, another a purgative(泻药), the third to overcome an acid condition. the germs of influenza（流感）can only exist in an acid condition, he explained. he seemed to know all about influenza and said there was nothing to worry about if the fever did not go above one hundred and four degrees. this was a light epidemic(传染病；传染性的) of flu and there was no danger if you avoided pneumonia（肺炎）.back in the room i wrote the boys temperature down and made a note of the time to give the various capsules.do you want me to read to you?all right. if you want to, said the boy. his face was very white and there were dark areas under his eyes. he lay still in the bed and seemed very detached（超然的；冷漠的）from what was going on.i read aloud from howard pyles book of pirates（海盗）;but i could see he was not following what i was reading.how do you feel, schatz? i asked him.just the same, so far, he said.i sat at the foot of the bed and read to myself while i waited for it to be time to give another capsule. it would have been natural for him to go to sleep, but when i looked up he was looking at the foot of the bed, looking very strangely.why dont you try to sleep? ill wake you up for the medicine.id rather stay awake.after a while he said to me, you dont have to stay in here with me, papa, if it bothers you.it doesnt bother me.no, i mean you dont have to stay if its going to bother you.i thought perhaps he was a little lightheaded and after giving him the prescribed capsules at eleven oclock i went out with my gun and the young hunting dog.i killed two quail(鹌鹑), and missed five, and started back pleased to have found a covey of quail close to the house and happy there were so many left to find on another day. at the house they said the boy had refused to let anyone come into the room.you cant come in, he said. you mustnt get what i have.i went up to him and found him in exactly the position i had left him, white-faced, but with the tops of his cheeks flushed（发红）by the fever, staring still, as he had stared, at the foot of the bed.i took his temperature.what is it?something like a hundred, i said. it was one hundred and two and four tenths.it was a hundred and two, he said.who said so?the doctor.your temperature is all right, i said. its nothi
