some people work extra hours because they want to make more money. however, many companies dont pay overtime. their workers dont get more pay for more work. some people think its their duty to work more hours. some are afraid of losing their jobs if they dont work more hours. many people say that their vacations are too short. in france, people get five weeks of paid vacation a year. in germany, they get four to six weeks, and in the united states, two weeks. one study shows fewer than half of workers used all their vacation days. in great britain, there is a saying, “all work and no play makes jack a dull boy.” if that is true, there must be a lot of dull people in the world.61. a japanese worker works _ more hours a year than a french one.a. 513 b. 1,646 c. 2,159 d. 3,80562. the word “overtime” in paragraph 3 means _.a. 税费 b. 加班费 c. 学费 d. 冷饮费63. people in _ get only two weeks of paid vacation a year.a. france b. germany c. the united states d. great britain64. which of the following is true according to the passage?a. no companies offer vacations to their workers.b. many people say they have enough time to relax.c. not all companies pay their workers for more work.d. more than half of workers use all their vacation days.65. what can we infer(推断) from the passage?a. many workers have to work long hours. b. many people have vacations long enough.c. work hours are the same around the world. d. there are a lot of dull people in the world.cwe all have our own ways of sharing our life experiences with others.photographers use cameras, artists use brushes, musicians use songs and writers use stories.spencer johnsons story who moved my cheese? shows changes exist in(存在于)our life. life changes and so we do. we must change ourselves to face the changing environment, or we will fail.just look at the cycle(循环)of the seasons. trees bud(发芽)in spring and in summer their leaves turn green. in autumn, their leaves start to fall onto the ground. when winter comes, there are no leaves on trees. next spring the cycle begins again. since we know there are cycles in nature, we can prepare for them. we know it is colder in winter and hotter in summer, so we can dress properly.since we accept the cycles of nature, we should also accept the changes in our life.we can prepare ourselves for changes by becoming more flexible(灵活的). we can regard the changes in our life as chances. as we keep changing ourselves, we can keep up with the changes in our life.66. what do writers use to share their life experiences? a. stories. b. newspapers. c. basketballs. d. pianos.67. who moved my cheese? tells us that _.a. changes exist in our life b. we should move others things c. we should use books to share our life experiences d. there are difficulties in our life68. the cycle of the seasons means _.a. we should wear warm clothes in winter b. we should accept the changes in our life c. we should prepare for the weather d. leaves turn yellow in autumn69. if you fail a test, what should you think according to the passage?a. i have no chance to pass the test. b. exams are hard for me.c. i have bad luck. d. its good for me because i know there are more to learn.70. whats the main idea of this passage?a. weather changes in different seasons. b. who moved my cheese? is a good book. c. we should change ourselves when life changes. d. we should not lose heart when we meet with difficulties.dmaking sense of how the us shows humorliving in a new country gives me many surprises. the first surprise was the way that the us people speak.one day i saw someone was having a public speech in a square. i thought it would be a serious speech. but i soon found it became a kind of entertainment show. the speaker told the audience to protect the environment with humorous words. later he said some peoples behavior didnt go with their words. he took the example of taylor swifts song we are never ever getting back together. he said that since swift doesnt want to be with the boy any more, she doesnt need to speak it aloud, she doesnt need to sing unless she still keeps in touch with that guy. it sounds like she is a hypocrite. then he sang the song in a funny way. the audience laughed out loudly. i felt a little angry because swift is my favourite star. i couldnt understand why they laughed at swift. as time goes on, i find many us people make fun of others. but they dont mean to hurt them. they do that to show closeness and humour. and people who are laughed at seldom get angry. now i understand the speaker at the square. now ive got used to the way the us people speak. its easy to find culture shock when youre in a new place. but everyone should learn to understand different cultures and customs. 71. the man in the square was _. a. teaching people how to give a speech b. calling on people to protect the environment c. giving a singing show in public d. criticizing the us government 72. what does the underlined word “hypocrite” in paragraph 4 mean?
