A while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing(挤)out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts, the mice finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they didnt run away immediately. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.Everyone was puzzled(困惑), so they stepped near to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and couldnt see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape.After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.One serious American official said, “I think the relationship between those mice was that of king and guard(卫兵).” The other thought for a while and said, “That is why!”A smart Frenchman said, “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife.” Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense.A Japanese said, “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son.” Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed(表达) agreement another time.At that moment, one Chinese asked, “Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?”Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and stayed speechless. The American official, the French and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame(羞愧), and did not dare to answer.In fact, the true love is not built on friendship, loyalty(忠诚) or blood relationship.Instead, it is based on no relationship.（1）Neither of the two mice ran away immediately because _.A . one was biting the otherB . the mouth of the hole was too smallC . they were not afraid of smokeD . one was trying to help the blind one（2）Why did the officials lower their heads in shame according to the passage?A . They didnt dare to answer.B . They didnt realize the importance of protecting animals.C . They felt sorry they had driven a poor blind mouse away.D . They didnt express themselves much better.（3）It is clear that _.A . all the mice came out of the hole easilyB . each of the people understood the relationship differentlyC . the people wanted to kill the mice with smokeD . the people knew one of the mice was blind at first（4）The words “it made sense” probably mean _A . it was correctB . it was strangeC . it was funnyD . was sweety（5）The best title for the passage is _.A . Two Lovely MiceB . Help Produces LoveC . Love Is AllD . Friends in Need18. （10分）阅读理解You may know the English letters A, B and C, but do you know there are people called “ABC”? You may like eating bananas, but do you know there are people called “banana persons”? If you dont know, I will tell you about it. They are some Chinese people like you and me, but they arent in China. Why do people call them like that?If we call somebody an ABC person, we mean he or she is a Chinese but was born (出生) in America. Sometimes, people also call them “banana persons”. A banana is yellow outside and white inside. So if somebody is a “banana person”, he or she is “white” inside and “yellow” outside. By saying that, we mean he or she has yellow skin(皮肤) but does things in an American way. “Banana persons” were born in America and they live in America for a long time, so they think like Americans and do things like Americans. However, these people still have Chinese blood(血统). Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents are from China. They all have black eyes and black hair, so they look like us, Chinese people.There are many famous “banana persons” in America. They do very well in America and they are really great in their own fields.（1）From the passage, we can learn “ABC” means _. A . English lettersB . Peoples namesC . “banana persons”D . American bananas（2）What is a “banana person” like outside? A . An American.B . A Chinese.C . An Australian.D . An Englishman.（3）Why do “banana persons” do things like Americans? A . Because they have white skins.B . Because they have American blood.C . Because they were born in America and live there for a long time.D . Because their parents are Americans.（4）Which of the following is TRUE about “banana persons”? A . They live in China.B . They were born in China.C . They grew up in China.D . They think like Americans.（5）The best title(标题) for the passage is _. A . What Is a “Banana Person”B . A Great Persons Name Is ABCC . Great “Banana Persons”D . Great Chinese People in America19. （6分） The right name is important in the business world. All you have to do is think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and youll agree that the name and the product are connected in the everyones mind.In many countries, successful trade or brand names are protected by law. This is so that other companies cannot make a product and, in fact, be buying something different. Businesses register a company or a product name with the government. In fact, more than 1,000 product and company names are registered every hour. Many companies spend a lot of money to find the right name for their products. A good example of this is. In the car industry. Some successful names for cars have powerful associations （联系）.The Ford Mustang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong.When a U. S company decides to sell its product in another country, it has to make sure that the product name translates properly. When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China, it looked for the right name. It wanted a name that would do two things. One was to present its image（形象）in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand nameCoke. It took some efforts before finding the right word which sounds similar and translates as “happiness in the mouth”. Asian company names are not new to the United States. The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful. Finding the right brand name is a big business. Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers. There are even naming companies that specialize in inventing product names. These companies can charge （要价）up to $100,000 a word for their creations. But its worth it. Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their development.（1）Why are trade names protected by law in many countries?A . To make companies pay for naming service.B . To help people choose the best productsC . To present good images of the productsD . To prevent good images from being copied（2）What can we learn from the passage?A . Many companies care about the cost of finding the right namesB . Creative trade names can help companies to have a larger saleC . The government often does business with naming companiesD . It is considered necessary for cars to be names after animals（3）Whats the best title for the passage?A . The Business of NamesB . The Development of NamesC . The Rules of Naming BusinessD . The Methods of Choosing Names20. （10分）阅读理解 There is a famous English saying You are what you eat, and it means what you put in your mouth will become part of you. Many experts use it to tell people its important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. But, a team of American scientists have found something new about eating sweet food.When we say some people are sweet, we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps this word can help us learn more about peoples feelings and acts, said Brian Meier, a scientist from the study team. Taste is something we experience every day. What we have done is find whether we can know someones character and behaviour according to his or her taste.In one of their experiments, students were asked questions about their character - whether, for example, they were soft- hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favourite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer.In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food, such as cookies and chocolate, were more willing to help other people in need, and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips werent. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in hospital and so on.The result of the experiments is that peoples helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice-cream.（1）The underlined word it refers to _. A . the sweet foodB . the eating habitC . the American teamD . the English saying（2）According to the result of the experiments, sweet food makes people _. A . overweightB . excitedC . relaxedD . friendly（3）The scientists found that people who preferred _ were less helpful. A . ice-creamB . chocolateC . chipsD . cookies（4）According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A . There is some relationship between someones character and his or her taste.B . Kids are told to eat more sweet food.C . What you put in your mouth will show your character.D . If people want to be kind or friendly, they can try some sweet food.（5）It can be learnt from the passage that _. A . scientists asked college students questions about their futureB . scientists told college students not to eat sweet foodC . people with a sweet tooth are more willing to help othersD . peoples character has nothing to do with their taste21. （10分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出能正确回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。 One day, in a heavily crowded place, a young man began shouting, People, look at me.
