People in the USA think that it is important to know the time. In cities in America, there are clocks in stations, factories and other buildings. Radio announcers(播音员) give you the correct time during the day. Most Americans also have watches with them wherever they go. They want to do certain(一定) things at certain time. They dont like to be late.But time is not so important to everybody in the world. When you visit a country in South America, you will find that people there dont like to rush. If you had an appointment(约会) with somebody, he could probably be late, because he may not want to arrive on time.In South America, even the radio programs may not begin on time. The men on the radio may not think it is important to tell the exact time. People in South America think that clocks or watches are just machines. They think that you let a clock or a watch control(控制) your life if you do everything on time.( )31. You can see clocks in stations, factories and other buildings in the USA because . A. Americans want to make these places beautifulB. Americans want to sell these clocks. C. Americans think that it is important to know the time D.

Americans dont want to be late when .A. they go to stations, factories or other buildings B. they do certain things at certain time C. they are free D. their children go to school.( )33.

Communication(交流) is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If its hard for you to communicate with your parents, dont worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (消除代沟). Dont argue (争辩) with your parents. Dont get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably wont consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you cant express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you dont think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michaels mother didnt agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try! 41. The passage tells us _ have a communication problem. A. parents and other people B. school kids and their parents C. teachers and their students D. parents and children of all ages 42. Your parents probably wont consider your ideas if you _. A. dont get to them oftenB. write a letter to them C. dont speak to them politelyD. express yourself well43 The underlined phrase “cool off” in the passage means “_”. A. to make yourself happyB. to get you quiet and relaxedC. to have a good restD. to hide yourself quickly 44. If theres really a generation gap between you and your parents, youd better _. A. have a talk with them oftenB. keep away from them C. agree with them all the timeD. know about their values 45. From the passage we learn that _.
