Surrounding the Forbidden City, many were built during the Yuan (1206-1341), Ming(1368-1628) and Qing(1644-1908) dynasties. In the prime of these dynasties the emperors, in order to establish supreme power for themselves, planned the city and arranged the residential areas according to the etiquette systems of the Zhou Dynasty. The center of the city of Beijing was the royal palace - the Forbidden City.One kind of hutongs, usually referred to as the regular hutong, was near the palace to the east and west and arranged in orderly fashion along the streets. Most of the residents of these hutongs were imperial kinsmen and aristocrats. Another kind, the simple and crude hutong, was mostly located far to the north and south of the palace. The residents were merchants and other ordinary people.The main buildings in the hutong were almost all quadrangles-a building complex formed by four houses around a quadrangular courtyard . The quadrangles varied in size and design according to the social status of the residents. The big quadrangles of high- ranking officials and wealthy merchants were specially built with roof beams and pillars all beautifully carved and painted, each with a front yard and back yard. However, the ordinary peoples quadrangles were simply built with small gates and low houses. hutongs, in fact, are passageways formed by many closely arranged quadrangles of different sizes. The specially built quadrangles all face the south for better lighting; as a result, a lot of hutongs run from east to west. Between the big hutongs many small ones went north and south for convenient passage.At the end of the Qing Dynasty unified and closed China came under influence from abroad, having experienced change of dynasties and the vicissitudes of life. The stereotyped arrangement of the hutong was also affected. Many newly formed hutongs with irregular houses appeared outside the city, while many old ones lost their former neat arrangement. The social status of the residents also changed, reflecting the collapse of the feudal system. During the period of the Republic of China (1911-1948), Chinese society was unstable, with frequent civil wars and repeated foreign invasions.The city of Beijing deteriorated, and the conditions of the hutong worsened. Quadrangles previously owned by one family became a compound occupied by many households.After the founding of the peoples Republic of China in 1949, hutong conditions improved. In recent years, the houses in many hutongs have been pulled down and replaced by modern buildings. Many hutong dwellers have moved to new housing.The hutong today is fading into the shade for both tourists and inhabitants.However, in the urban district of Beijing houses along hutongs still occupy one third of the total area, providing housing for half the population, so many hutongs have survived. In this respect, we see the old in the new in Beijing as an ancient yet modern city.56. Where the hutongs were built depended on _A. peoples economic status B. peoples social statusC. peoples personal habits D. the local customs57. According to the passage, the distance between two rows of hutong is _A. big B. medium C. small D the same58. The underlined word “deteriorated” in the fifth paragraph means_A. became worse B. became better C. became stronger D became weaker59. The best title for this passage would be _A. The Origin of Hutongs B.The Condition of Hutongs NowC. The Styles of Hutong D. Beijing Hutong60. The passage is arranged _A. in the order of time B. in the order of spaceC. in the order of Hutongs importance D. in the order of Hutongs styleBThe term culture refers to a state of intellectual development or manners. The social and political forces that influence the growth of a human being is defined as culture. Indian culture is rich and diverse and as a result unique in its very own way. Our manners, way of communicating with one another, etc are one of the important components of our culture Even though we have accepted modern means of living, improved our lifestyle, our values and beliefs still remain unchanged. A person can change his way of clothing, way of eating and living but the rich values in a person always remains unchanged because they are deeply rooted within our hearts, mind, body and soul which we receive from our culture. Indian culture treats guests as god and serves them and takes care of them as if they are a part and parcel of the family itself. Even though we dont have anything to eat, the guests are never left hungry and are always looked after by the members of the family. Elders and the respect for elders is a major component in Indian culture. Elders are the driving force for any family and hence the love and respect for elders comes from within and is not artificial. An individual takes blessings from his elders by touching their feet. Elders drill and pass on the Indian culture within us as we grow. “Respect one another” is another lesson that is taught from the books of Indian culture. All people are alike and respecting one another is ones duty. In foreign countries the relation between the boss and the employee is like a master and slave and is purely monetary whereas in Indian culture the relation between the boss and the employee is more like homely relations unlike foreign countries. Helpful nature is another striking feature in our Indian culture. Right from our early days of childhood we are taught to help one another in need of help and distress. If not monetary then at least in kind or non-monetary ways. Indian culture tells us to multiply and distribute joy and happiness and share sadness and pain. It tells us that by all this we can develop co-operation and better living amongst ourselves and subsequently make this world a better place to live in.61. From the second paragraph, which of the following remains the same in Indian culture?A. Manners B. Ways of communicating C. Lifestyles D Values and beliefs62.

The author most probably comes from _A. China B. India C. America D. the UK65. This passage is mainly about_A. Indian customs B Indian history C. Indian culture D. Indian lifestylesCAmerican society reports many negative messages about bicycling in traffic. Bicycling in traffic is considered by many to be reckless（匆忙的）, foolhardy（草率的）, and sometimes rude. The most common advice given to cyclists is to avoid busy roads that provide convenient access to important places; presumably（据推测）cyclists should only go to unpopular destinations on undesirable and inconvenient roads. Another popular idea is that cyclists should stay as close to the edge of the road as possible in order to stay out of the way of cars. Getting in the way of cars is supposedly an invitation to certain death, because car drivers are often expected to run into anything that is slower or more vulnerable（易受伤的）.The rules of the road that apply to bicyclists are considered to be of no use because they involve mixed with motor traffic, which is thought to be suicide. Roads are believed to be designed for cars and not for bicycles, which are tolerated at the pleasure of motorists, who really own the roads. Inferior bicyclists may have an obsolete(不可再用的) legal right to use the road, but they had better stay out of the way of superior users or they will be dead right. As a result of these common-sense beliefs, American bike-safety programs developed by motoring organizations and pedestrian-style bicyclists during the twentieth century attempted to teach cyclists to provide a clear path to motorists at all times by hugging the edge of the road, riding on sidewalks where present, and even riding facing traffic so cyclists can see when to get out of the way. Some towns and states tried to prohibit bicyclists from operating on important roads or roads without shoulders. Engineering projects designed for bicycle safety have usually involved construction of mandatory（强制的）sidepaths to get cyclists off of roads and mandatory bike lanes to keep cyclists out of the way of motorists. The publicized benefit of these efforts is to protect cyclists from collisions from behind, which are widely believed to be the greatest danger to cyclists and caused by cyclists failure to keep up with the desired speed of motor traffic. This is the taboo that afflicts American bicycle transportation policy: that bicyclists must be kept out of the paths of motorists or they will surely be killed.66. In many peoples eyes, bicycle should be _.A. supported B. banned C. controlled D. cancelled 67. From the first paragraph, the person riding a bicycle in the city should take _.A. main roads B. streets D. highways D. sidewalks68. Why do many people not agree that people should ride on roads? _A. Roads are for cars not for cyclists. B. People riding bicycles are considered inferior.C. Peoples riding on the road is against the law. D. People riding bicycles are not experienced.69. The underlined phrase “cyclists failure to keep up with the desired speed of motor traffic.” in the second paragraph means _.A. cyclists speed is beyond the limit B. cyclists speed is much lower than that of motorists and they easily get hurtC. cyclists often compete with motorists on the roadsD. motorists usually look down upon cyclists.70. The measures taken by government in some states in the second paragraph are for the purpose of _.A. protecting peoples convenience B. protecting the cars and motorsC. protecting cyclists safety D. protecting the flowing of the trafficDJapan wi
