Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space. The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural difference, not an economic one. Knowing your own psychological space needs is important because they strongly affect your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family, and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, the chances are, if you have two children or more, that you also will offer separate bedrooms for them. In America, for example, they train people to want to have their own rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very rare in the world. In many other countries, the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in a bed near them. The space in the home also shows a lot about psychological space needs. Some families gather closer to each other and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little corners where family members go to be alone. （10分）(1) The passage is chiefly concerned with _. （2分）A.American way of livingB.living conditions in different countriesC.space requirements in different culturesD.space requirements and economic factors(2) Accordingto the author, the amount of living space a person needs is decided by _. （2分）A.his cultural backgroundB.the relationship between the family membersC.his financial situationsD.how many rooms there are in his house(3) Theexample of American families seems to suggest that _. （2分）A.Americans are more eager to be alone when they are at homeB.psychological space needs are developed when one is very youngC.it is advisable to let the baby sleep with his parentsD.it is advisable to let the baby sleep in a separate room(4) Somefamilies gather close to each other at home because _. （2分）A.they have limited living spaceB.it satisfies their psychological space needsC.they have been brought up in a small familyD.they havent small corners for themselves(5) According to the author, psychological space needs _. （2分）A.will change as ones incomes are reducedB.will change if you move to a smaller houseC.can be changed at willD.cannot be changed completely1.标准答案：C2.标准答案：A3.标准答案：B4.标准答案：B5.标准答案：D2. Ideas about education are changing in the United States. Education today is not just a high school diploma (文凭) or a college degree. Many adults are not interested in going to college. They are interested in other kinds of learning. For them, learning does not end with a diploma.Continuing education gives these adults the opportunity to increase their knowledge about their own field or to learn about a new field. It also gives these adults a chance to improve their old skills or to learn new ones.Scientists, mechanics and barbers can take classes to improve their work skills. If they know more or learn more, they can get a better job or earn more money.Continuing education classes give more adults the chances to learn new skills. There are usually a large variety of classes to choose from: typing, foreign cooking, photography, auto repair, furniture repair, or swimming. These are only some of the classes available.Some adults take classes for fun or because the class will be useful for them. Other adults take continuing education classes to improve their own lives because they want to feel better about themselves.Almost any community college or public school system has a continuing education program. There are classes in schools, community buildings or churches. Most classes are in the evening, so working people can attend. The classes are usually small, and they are inexpensive. （10分）(1) The new idea about education inU.S.is that _. （2分）A.everyone should get a college degreeB.its no use for adults to go to collegeC.a high school diploma is the end of educationD.adults should go on learning after graduating from school(2) Whats the purpose for adults to continue their education? （2分）A.Enlarge their knowledge and learn new skills.B.Catch the opportunity to get a higher degree.C.Learn more basic knowledge to get a diploma.D.Make themselves live a more comfortable life.(3) Which of the following statement is true? （2分）A.There are only a few continuing education classes available for adults.B.Only those who want to get more money should go on with their education.C.People take continuing education classes for different reasons.D.All the people getting continuing education can get a good job.(4) Usually, the continuing education program is given _. （2分）A.in a small size and expensivelyB.only for working peopleC.only in community buildings or churchesD.by community colleges and public schools(5) The best title for the passage would be _. （2分）A.Continuing Education ClassesB.The Importance of a College DegreeC.A Good Wayto Earn More MoneyD.Different Choices for Adults1.标准答案：D2.标准答案：A3.标准答案：C4.标准答案：D5.标准答案：A3. Mr. Richards was quite good at shooting with a rifle, and he had taken part in several competitions in his small town. He had never actually won a prize, but each time he had done well, and once he had come fourth.Then he had to go to a big city on business for a month, and as he had nothing much to do in the evenings there, he joined the local rifle club, and spent several pleasant evenings shooting there.The rifle club had a very good team, which used to take part in a lot of important shooting competitions. One of these took place while Mr. Richards was with them, and of course he went to see it. But one of the members of the clubs team suddenly fell ill just before the match, and the captain had to choose somebody else to take his place in a hurry. He had heard that Mr. Richards had taken part in several competitions already, and he had seen for himself at the club that, although he was not really up to the standard of the clubs first team, he was quite a good shot. He therefore invited him to take the sicks place.Mr. Richards felt greatly honored to be asked to shoot for such a good team, but he also felt very nervous, because he was afraid of making a fool of himself and letting down his team.In fact, he was so nervous that he could not keep his hands from trembling while he was shooting, with the result that he did very badly in the competition. When he took his score card to his captain, he said, “After seeing my score, I feel like going outside and shooting myself.”The captain looked at the card for a few seconds and then said, “Well, you had better take two bullets with you if you do that.” （10分）(1) Which of the following statements is true? （2分）A.Mr. Richards was not very skillful at shooting.B.Mr. Richards had won a prize once in a shooting competition.C.Mr. Richards had taken part in quite a few shooting competitions.D.Some of the team members in the club are not good at shooting, either.(2) Why did Mr. Richards join the local rifle club when he went to a big city on business? （2分）A.Because he wanted to win a prize in shooting competitions.B.Because he didnt have much to do in the evenings.C.Because he liked meeting people.D.Because he wanted to share his experiences with others.(3) Why was Mr. Richards chosen to take the sicks place? （2分）A.Because he had won shooting prizes.B.Because he had taken some competitions and was not a bad shot.C.Because he was as good a shot as any member of the clubs first team.D.Because the captain was sure that Mr. Richards would do well in the competition.(4) Which of the following is true about Mr. Richards shooting? （2分）A.He was nervous, but he managed to shoot well.B.He missed his target.C.He did badly because he was sick.D.His hands were trembling, so he couldnt shoot well.(5) What did the captain mean by saying “you had better take two bullets with you if you do that? （2分）A.He was giving Mr. Richards suggestions.B.He was not that disappointed at Mr. Richards score.C.He was very angry at seeing Mr. Richards score.D.He was trying to make Mr. Richards less uneasy.1.标准答案：C2.标准答案：B3.标准答案：B4.标准答案：D5.标准答案：C4. Think of the world as a giant ball with a belt around its middle. This middle part of the world is the equator. Forests that cover much of the land there are thick and green. Heavy rains that often soak the earth make the trees grow quickly and tall. This huge umbrella of trees protects the floor of the rain forest from the blazing hot sun.It is difficult to live in the rain forest with its constant heat, thick growth of trees, and rain. In the rain-forest villages, people live in straw-roofed houses with open sides that are perfect for this climate. Heat and rain are kept out while fresh air flows in and out.Most people living in a rain forest are farmers who move from one part of the forest to another to grow their crops. The people farm the same piece of land until the land is no longer useful. Then they must move. The people also must move when the rains wash away good soil.Travel in the rain forest is usually by water. Canoes take people along the rivers to trade their crops for other things they need. There are not many roads or railroads in a rain forest because they are difficult to build. It takes a lot of hard work and strong machines to cut through the thick tangle of trees, shrubs and creeping vines. （10分）(1) What is a rain forest? （2分）A.A dry place with grass and no trees.B.A cold place with frozen ground.C.A wet place with little plant growth.D.A hot, wet place with tall trees.(2) In a rain forest, houses do not have _. （2分）A.walls B.roofs C.floors D.kitchens (3) Which of these would be the most useful to people living in a rain forest? （2分）A.tractors B.computers C.more water D.warm clothes (4) The equator is _. （2分）A.a line that runs from north to southB.a circle around the center of the earthC.the North PoleD.the South Pole(5) Which word means nearly the same as climate? （2分）A.land B.wet C.rain D.weather 1.标准答案：D2.标准答案：A3.标准答案：A4.标准答案：B5.标准答案：D三、组合题 （共20题,每题10分,共10分）1.
