kabobs，which are different styles of grilled meat.one delicious and extremely healthy dish is the joojeh kabob，which is made of grilled chicken pieces served with either rice or bread.another great

years, the most important two buildings in any british village have been the church and the pub. traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.as a result, british pubs are often old and well preserved. many of them have become historic sites. the most famous example is the pub in the city of nottingham called “the old trip to jerusalem”， which dates back to the year 1189 ad and is probably the oldest pub in england.however, british pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. on a cold night, the pubs landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. there is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.thats how things used to be. things are beginning to change. it is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩) is causing british pubs to go out of business. people do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. recently, the uk government banned smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.this decline is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the uk government started to allow pubs to stay open after 11 pm. previously, with 11 pm as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. the british habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”， and it causes longterm health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.in order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. british pubs now offer something for everyone. a lot of pubs used to be “working mens clubs”， meaning that women could not usually enter. today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. perhaps things are changing for the better after all.1the passage mainly tells us something about _athe past and present of british pubsbthe decline of british pubscthe long history of british pubsdthe importance of british pubs2which may not be the cause of the decline of british pubs?athe credit crunch.bthe present closing time.cthe ban of smoking.dhaving no spare money.3we can infer from the passage that _abritish people used to like drinking slowlybclosing the pubs early will reduce social problemsc“binge drinking” means drinking less beerdbritish government aims to discourage people from “binge drinking”4we can see from the last paragraph that the author _ais against the admission of too many women to the pubsbholds an optimistic attitude towards the british pubscthinks that women in the pubs will cause fewer social problemsdthinks that british pubs should offer everything you need(一)【要点综述】文章讲述了英国酒吧的发展过程及作者对将来酒吧的发展所持的乐观态度。1a主旨大意题。文章全篇讲的都是英国以前和现在的“pub”的情况。2b细节理解题。根据文章的介绍可知，英国酒吧的衰落由信贷紧缩、禁烟令、无钱消费等原因所致。故选b项。3d推理判断题。根据倒数第二段英国政府出台的这项政策可知，政府是反对狂饮酒的，因此用法律的手段来限制酗酒。故选d项。4b推理判断题。根据最后一句“可能事情会变得更好”可知，作者对于英国酒吧的发展态度应该是比较积极、乐观的。故选b项。文化教育型阅读理解(一) (二)in this age of internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied. yet, despite the competition, my 8yearold daughter rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. she wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, a competition she won last year.as a writer i know about winning contests, and about losing them. i know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection slip from the publisher. i also know the pressures of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. what if she doesnt win the contest again? thats the strange thing about being a parent. so many of our own past scars and dashed hopes can surface.a revelation (启示) came last week when i asked her, “dont you want to win again？” “no，” she replied. “i just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”i had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously (自发地) told them. telling myself that i was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall, i offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her tales. the story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson. i had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it.staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. because i knew very little about farm animals who used tools or angels who went to first grade, i had to accept the fact that i was coopting my daughters experience.while stepping back is difficult for me, it is certainly a good first step that i will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked. all the while i will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.1what did the author say
