In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party dateBut it is not true in all countriesIn other areas of the world，it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgottenThe meaning of time differs in different parts of the worldThus，misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differentlyPromptness is valued highly in American life，for exampleIf people are not prompt，they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsibleIn the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour，it would be too impoliteA person who is 5 minutes late，will say a few words of explanation，though perhaps he will not complete the sentence (260 words) 在美国，一般不习惯每天很早打电话给某个人。如果你很早打电话给他，在他刮胡子或吃早饭的时候，那就说明这件事情非常重要，需要立刻处理。晚上十一点以后打电话也是同样的意思。如果一个人在睡觉的时候接到电话，那他肯定觉得这是一件事关生死的大事。打电话的时间也显示事情的重要程度。在社会生活中，时间是一个非常重要的角色。在美国，如果在宴会三四天前才受到邀请，那受邀者就会认为自己不是很受重视。但并不是在所有的国家都如此。在世界上的其它地方，提前很多时候做约定被认为是很愚蠢的，因为约好一个星期以后的事情很容易忘记。所以时间的意义在不同的地方是不一样的。因此，来自不同文化背景的人之间就会产生误会。举个例子，准时在美国社会是受到高度认可的。如果某些人不准时，就会被认为不礼貌或不够负责任。在美国，没有一个人会把一次商务活动和等待一小时联系起来，这太不礼貌了。一个人如果迟到五分钟，就要做出解释，也许这还不够。6What is the main idea of this passage? _AIt is not customary to telephone someone in the morning and in sleeping hours in the U.S. BThe role of time in Social life over the world CIf people are late, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U.S. DNot every country treats the concept of time as the same 7What does it mean in the passage if you call someone during his or her sleeping hours? AA matter of work. BA matter of 1ife or deathCYou want to see him or her DYou want to make an appointment with him or her8Which of the following time is proper if you want to make an appointment with your friend? _AAt 7: 00 am BAt 4: 00 pm CAt the midnight DAt 4: 00 am 9Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? _AIn the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date BThere is no misunderstanding arising between people from different cultures about the concept of time CIt may be considered foolish to make an appointment well in advance in the U.S.A. DPromptness is valued highly in American life 10From the passage we can safely infer that _Aits a matter of life or death if you call someone in day time Bthe meaning of time differs in different parts of the world Cit makes no difference in the U.S. whether you are early or late for a business party Dif a person is late for a date，he neednt make some explanation Passage 2There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.目标有三种：短期目标，中期目标和长期目标。Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.短期目标是根据每日制定的为了处理当前事物的目标。短期目标可以以少于一个星期，一个星期，两个星期，或者可能的话一个月来完成。我们必须记住，正如只有地基牢靠，建筑物才坚固一样，长期目标脱离了扎实的短期目标的实现是不能实现的。短期目标的实现是以以前完成的目标为前提的。The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.中期目标是在短期目标的基础上指定的。可以以一个学期或整个学年为周期指定，或者延长至几年。每次你根据目标前进了一步，都不要让自己感到没有信心或者压力重重。当你完成了一个目标，你都会增加成功的信心。并且当你完成目标的日期越来越近，你的动力和希望都会增加。Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.(221 words)长期目标可以和我们未来的梦想相关联。可以是五年或五年以上的目标。生活不是一成不变的。我们不能让长期目标制约了我们或我们的行为。11Our longterm goals mean a lot Aif we cannot reach solid shortterm goals Bif we complete the shortterm goalsCif we have dreams of the future Dif we put forward some plans12New shortterm goals are built upon Aa daily basis Byour achievement in a week Ccurrent activities Dthe goals that have been completed 13When we complete each step of our goals, _Awe will win final success Bwe are overwhelmed Cwe should build up confidence of success Dwe should have strong desire for setting new goals 14What is the main idea of this passage? ALife is a dynamic thing BWe should set up longterm goals CDifferent kinds of goals in life DThe limitation of longterm goals 15Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? AThe longterm goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid shortterm goals BThe intermediate goals build on the foundation of the shortterm goals CLife is a static thing，thus we should never allow a longterm goal to limit us or our course of action DWe should often add new shortterm goals to those which have been completed6【答案】B。【解析】主旨题。根据对文章的阅读与理解，我们可以发现这篇文章主要是向人们介绍时间观念的文章，而其他项是文章的部分细节。 7【答案】B。【解析】细节题。在文章的第5行有明确的说明。 8【答案】B。【解析】细节判断题。根据文章第1行和第5行的说明，我们可以判断只有选项B是最合适的时间。 9【答案】D。【解析】细节判断题。根据文章，我们知道在美国如果在宴会前三四天才邀请的客人，往往是不重要的客人，所以选项A错。同时各国对于时间的理解也各有不同，所以选项B错。在美国应该提前发出邀请，所以选项C错。 10【答案】B。【解析】选项A本身陈述就与文章内容不符，所以不是正确选项。选项D与文中陈述不符。选项C也不符合题意。选项B可以从文中找到答案。11【答案】B。【解析】细节题，答案可以从文章第4行和第5行找到，即长期目标是以短期目标的完成为基础的。12【答案】D。【解析】细节判断题，答案在文章第6行和第7行，即短期目标是以以前完成的目标为前提的。13【答案】C。【解析】细节题，答案在文章倒数第4行，即完成每一个目标，将会增加我们成功的信心。14【答案】C。【解析】主旨题，文章主要是讲解了三种人生目标及其差异。15【答案】C。【解析】判断题，根据文章内容，我们可以看出“生活不是一个一成不变的事物”。16The students were all entertained in a Mexican restaurant, at Professor Brians Amoney Bpay Cexpense Dloss 17Tom, what did you do with my documents?
