(15) gifts for dads are probably ties, chocolates or socks because there are things that dads can (16) use even if they dont want them. in the run-up to fathers day, or indeed mothers day, there will be advertisements on tv giving (17) ideas of cds or gadgets(小玩意) we can buy. card shops will be full of mugs or pens and similar goods with “ worlds greatest dad”(18) on them. some families(19) do things together to celebrate fathers day like going for a meal. as a special treat, british people might give their dad a bit of a rest,(20) him a cup of tea, or even wash his car and mow the lawn to make him feel really appreciate.1.a. and b. so c. or d. but2.a. gave b. went c. died d. passed 3.a. brought b. fed c. raised d. educated4.a. unusual b. unnatural c. unfair d. untrue 5.a. noticed b. found c. heard d. realized6.a. wife b. children c. son d. daughter 7.a. at school b . at home c . at work . d.at church 8.a. mothers day b. fathers day c. christmas day d. new years day9.a. still b. too c. also d. as well10.a. attraction b. tradition c. position d. congratulation11.a. special b. officially c. especial d. greatly 12.a. like b. that c. as d. which13.a. existence b. use c. effect d. power14.a. writing b. saying c speaking d. telling 15.a. regular b. popular c. normal d. moral16.a. always b. sometimes c. seldom d. never 17.a. you b. them c. us d. people18.a. placed b. put c. laid d. written19.a. must b. can c might d. should20.a. cook b. boil c. steam d. make 二 、阅读理解ait was once common to regard britain as a society with class distinction. each class had unique characteristics.in recent years, many writers have begun to speak the decline of class and classless society in britain. and in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class. but pronouncing the death of class is too early. a recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of british society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of british society. britain seems to have a love of stratification.one unchanging aspect of a british persons class position is accent. the words a person speaks tell her or his class. a study of british accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a bbc newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice, most people said this accent sounded educated and soft. the accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional（地区的）city accents. these accents were seen as common and ugly. however, a similar study of british accents in the us turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and bbc english as the least. this suggests that british attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.in recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in london, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. this is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. however, the 1995 pop song common people puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may want to live like common people they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.21.a recent study of public opinion shows that in modern britain _. a. it is time to end class distinctionb. most people belong to middle classc. it is easy to recognize a persons classd. people regard themselves socially different22.the word stratification in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _.a. varietyb. most people belong to middle classc. authority d. qualification23.the study in the us showed that bbc english was regarded as _.a. regionalb. educatedc. prejudiced d. unattractive24.british attitudes towards accent _.a. have a long traditionb. are based on regional statusc. are shared by the americansd. have changed in recent years25.what is the main idea of the passage?a. the middle class is expanding b. a persons accent reflects his classc. class is a key part of british societyd. each class has unique characteristics.b as internet users become more dependent on the internet to store information, are people remember less? if you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? experts are wondering if the internet is changing what we remember and how.in a recent study, professor betsy sparrow conducted some experiments. she and her research team wanted to know the internet is changing memory. in the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. the first group of people understood thatthe computer would save the information. the second group understood that the computer would not save it. later, the second group remembered the information better. people in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.in another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the internet. the information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹). surprisingly, people later remember the folder location (位置) better than the facts. when people use the internet, they do not remember the information. rather, they remember how to find it. this is called transactive memory (交互记忆).according to sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the internet. instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. this doesnt mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.26.the passage begins with two questions to _. a. introduce the main topic b. show the authors altitudec. describe how to use the interne. d. explain how to store information27.what can we learn about the first experiment?a. sparrows team typed the information into a computer. b. the two groups remembered the information equally well.c. the first group did not try to remember the formation. d. the second group did not understand the information.28.in transactive memory, people _.a. keep the information in mind b. change the quantity of information c. organize information like a computer d. remember how to find the information29.what is the effect of the internet according to sparrows research? a. weare using memory differently. b. we arebecoming more intelligent.c. we have poorer memories than before .d. we need a better way to access information.cdear miss manners， friends of mine lost their home in a house fireit was terribleanother friend set up a go fund me type page for friends and funnily to donate and help the couplemany friends, including me, helped with money, meals, lamprey and their dog while they were getting back on their feetlast week, they sent thank-you notesmy roommate received one addressed to her and i did not the notes were not in modularized; it was a printed one-size-fits-all messagemy roommate realized i didnt receive a thank you, so she sent a private message to the couple just letting them know i had been left outi didnt know she had done this until laterthe next day, i got a text message apologizing and saying that i had been left out because their friend who addressed the notes must have missed me!（miss manners, they didnt even address the notes themselves!）it was accompanied by a picture of the thank-you note, which was texted to me with- the message, here is a thank you just for you. i was a little annoyedi helped them in their fume of need and didnt get a second thoughti have not responded to her text messageis it fair of me to consider this friendship over?
