阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。Getting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was longlived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War .Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea; clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays.Many firsttime parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease.On the contrary，Mary Ruebush，an American immunologist(免疫学家)，encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system.And the latter position is gaining some ground.本文介绍了人们对灰尘的不同态度和看法。16世纪早期，人们认为灰尘能阻挡疾病。人们不能洗澡。18世纪时人们认为洗掉灰尘对身体有好处，能阻止疾病。而现在，人们对灰尘有不同看法，有人认为不能碰灰尘，而有人认为灰尘能增强免疫力。1The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because _.Athey lived healthily in a dirty environmentBthey thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inCthey believed disease could be spread in public bathsDthey considered bathing as the cause of skin disease答案：C。细节理解题。根据短文第二段第二、三句话可知。人们认为公共浴池是特别危险的，法国和英国的国王都关闭了他们的浴池，由此可知C项正确。2Which of the following best describes Henry IVs attitude to bathing?AAfraid. BCurious.CApproving. DUninterested.答案：A。推理判断题。根据短文第二段最后两句话可知，享利四世以脏出名，当他得知有人洗澡，为了避免疾病侵袭，他下令不准这人出门。由此可知享利四世对于洗澡是相当害怕的。3. How does the passage mainly develop?A. By providing examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following the order of time.D. By following the order of importance.答案：C。细节理解题，本文是以时间为线索进行写作的。先写16世纪人们对灰尘的态度，然后是17世纪，最后写到今天人们的态度。4What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?A. To stress the role of dirt.B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To call attention to the danger of dirt.D. To present the change of views on dirt.答案：D。细节理解题。整篇文章作者陈述了三个不同的时间，人们对待灰尘的看法，由此向我们展示了人们对灰尘观点的改变。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 Nowadays, people in China are increasingly interested in celebrating foreign festivals, especially those western festivals. A survey conducted recently by sina. com. showed that among the 18,222 people surveyed 63.90% said celebrating Christmas is just another way of recreation, nothing serious while 17.85% surveyed considered the festival as a fashion act, showing they were not “out”. These two parts clearly indicate the general opinion of the young. 10.45% people involved said the celebration of a religious western festival with so much enthusiasm is absolutely ridiculous pursuit of foreign goodness. Only 7.80% of people define Christmas as a kind of festival colonization(殖民).The arising of celebrating foreign festivals clearly has something to do with the advancement of Chinas economy. In my point view, Christmas and other festivals celebrated in China have difference from the origin. They have lost their religious background and turned into a big occasion to have fun and enjoy life. Shop owners pockets are filled, the publics hunger for happiness is filled, and that is enough. Foreign festivals in China are more like carnivals giving people pleasure and enjoyment. The crisis of traditional Chinese festivals that are losing their attraction may be linked to the culture tradition and background of the festivals. Most Chinese festival culture is related more or less to real life. “The country is based on its people while the people are relied on their food”. But the western culture shows much of romance. Some festivals have their religious background while others have much to do with culture and people. At this point, food seems to be too plain. Flowers and chocolates are more welcomed.Foreign festivals in China are celebrated for fun. They give people opportunities to relax and celebrate, to show appreciation and gratefulness. The acceptance of foreign festivals generally depends on the openness of the public, the familiarity with the western culture, and most importantly, on peoples economic status.1From the survey we know that among the people surveyed _. Amost think celebrating foreign festivals is ridiculous Bmany fear that traditional Chinese festivals will disappear soon Csome think that celebrating foreign festivals is a sign of foreign goodness chasing Dhalf think celebrating foreign festivals makes people not go out of fashion2The writer thinks that foreign festivals celebrated in China _.Ahave lost their religious backgroundBare the same as those celebrated in the WestCcan give more fun than traditional Chinese festivalsDmay reduce the hunger of public people3What is the main difference between foreign festivals and traditional Chinese ones?AForeign festivals can make Chinese shop owners pockets full quickly.BThe food at foreign festivals is too simple.CChinese festivals always have something to do with culture.DForeign festivals are romantic while traditional Chinese ones are connected with reality.4Which of the following may NOT be the reason why so many people accept foreign festivals? APeople can relax themselves.BPeople can show their thanks to others. CForeign festivals have longer histories than Chinese ones. DPeople have known more about the western culture.【参考答案】 14、C A D C阅读理解。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。Beldon and Canfield are two seashore towns, not far apartBoth towns have many hotels, and in summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other touristsLast August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in BeldonThe next day, this news appeared on page two of the towns newspaperThe Beldon Post:FIRE AT SEABREEZELate last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroomThe hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fireWe say again to all our visitors： “Please dont smoke cigarettes in bed” This was Beldons first hotel fire for five yearsThe Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one：ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRELast night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze HotelAn angry holiday-maker said, “An electric lamp probably started the fireThe bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotelsWhen I put my bed side light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp” We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in CanfieldWhat are the facts, then?
