We were trying to get into a taxi when he came up to us. He was carrying a nice umbrella and he said that he would give it to us for only a pound. He had forgotten his wallet and he said he needed a taxi to go back home. My mother didnt believe what he had said at first, and asked him a lot of questions. But she finally believed the man and gave him the pound. But the old man didnt get into a taxi. We followed him and found he went into a pub and bought himself a glass of whiskey with the pound. After he drank it, he put on his hat and took up one of the many wet umbrellas there and went off with the new one. Soon after that, he sold it again.6 The old man sold an umbrella to the writer and her mother. ( ) 7 He gave it to them for only a pound because he had forgotten his wallet and needed taxi fare to go back home ( )8The umbrella was worth more than one pound. ( )9The old man sold his own umbrella. ( )10he was an honest man.( )Passage 2A foreigners first impression of the U.S. is likely to be that everyone is in a rushoften under pressure. City people appear always to be hurrying to get where they are going，restlessly, seeking attention in a store, and elbowing others as they try to complete their tasks. Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life in this country.Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating places are waiting for you to finish so that they too can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next person. If you dont, waiters will hurry you.You also find drivers will be abrupt and that people will push past you. You will miss smiles, brief conversations, and small courtesies with strangers. Dont take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain courtesy point.The view of time affects the importance we attach to patience. In the American system of values, patience is not a high priority. Many of us have what might be called “a short fuse.” We begin to move restlessly about if we feel time is slipping away without some return, be this in terms of pleasure, work value, or rest. Those coming from lands where time is looked upon differently may find this matter of pace to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life.Many newcomers to the States will miss the opening courtesy of a business call, for example. They will miss the ritual socializing that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee that may be traditional in their own country. They may miss leisurely business chats in a caf or coffeehouse. Normally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over prolonged small talks. We seek out evidence of past performance rather than evaluate a business colleague through social courtesies. Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talking business very quickly. 11. Which of the following statements is wrong? _A. Americans seem to be always under pressure.B. Americans attach less importance to patience.C. Americans dont care much about ritual socializing.D. Americans are impolite to their business colleagues.12. In the fourth paragraph, “a high priority” means _.A. a less important thingB. a first concernC. a good businessD. an attractive gift13. Americans evaluate a business colleague _.A. through social courtesyB. through prolonged business talksC. by establishing business relationsD. by learning about their past performance14. This passage mainly talks about _.A. how Americans treasure their timeB. how busy Americans are every dayC. how Americans do business with foreignersD. what American way of life is like15. We can infer from the passage that the authors tone in writing is _.A. criticalB. ironicalC. appreciativeD. objective第三部分：词汇与结构（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）16.

I thought that the women in the movement were just unhappy and bitter. I had the 2 that they hated men, whereas I myself had nothing against men at all. However, I was encouraged by a friend to attend a meeting in North London. There were Womens Liberation groups in each area of London, in size and in their particular interests. The group I attended was started by a few of middle-class intellectual women who wanted to get the support of working-class housewives in the area. However, 4 I turned up at the meeting I found that the other women were all the middle-class graduates, a few with several degrees. Some of the girls were very intellectual and articulate, and had even published books or appeared on TV.
