Western babies are dressed in bigger clothes while Chinese babies are usually wrapped D Western babies have more clothes than Chinese babies C If you watch the sky about an hour after the sun goes down you may see some moving stars But they are not really stars They re satellites And the biggest of all is the International Space Station ISS From May until July this year was the best season to watch the ISS flying over the Earth And people can see it with just their eyes The ISS is the biggest satellite because scientists want to live on it They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there When the space station is finished it will be like a city in space People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home Labs living rooms and power stations are being built The ISS is the most ambitious 雄心 雄心 勃勃的 勃勃的 and expensive space program ever billions of dollars are being spent on it every year Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping stone 跳板 跳板 for future space exploration The ISS will help us better understand the human body explore space and study the Earth It can help us make life on Earth better said Kathryn Clark an ISS scientist Sixteen countries are part of the program the US Russia Canada Japan Brazil and 11 European countries China is not an ISS country but it has helped with some of the experiments In 2003 China sent some rice up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it The ISS is not finished yet More than 100 parts must still be put on After it s finished more than 90 percent of the world s

more years is needed to completely finish the ISS 70 Which of the following statements is TRUE A People can see the ISS all the time B People can t see the ISS with just their eyes C The ISS is important in exploring space D The best time to watch the ISS is in May every year D America is a mobile society Friendships between Americans can be close and real yet disappear soon if situations change Neither side feels hurt by this Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two perhaps a few letters for a while then no more If the same two people meet again by chance even years later they pick up the friendship This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings extending 延伸延伸 sometimes deeply into both families Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes share their holidays and their home life They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality 好客好客 easily Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives they don t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time Sometimes we as hosts will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends The Americans however express their welcome usually at homes but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus And they expect that we will phone them from there Once we arrive at their homes the welcome will be full warm and real We will find ourselves treated hospitably For the Americans it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants except for purely business matters So accept their hospitality at home 71 The writer of this passage must be A an American B a Chinese C a professor D a student 72 Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage A Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families B Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives C Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy D Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break 73 From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend we will probably be A warmly welcomed at the airport B offered a ride to his home C treated hospitably at his home D treated to dinner in a restaurant 74 The underline words generous with our time in Paragraph 3 probably mean A strict with time B serious with time C careful with time D willing to spend time 75 A suitable title for this passage would probably be A Friendships between Chinese B Friendships between Americans C Americans hospitality D Americans and Chinese s views of friendships 第二卷 非选择题第二卷 非选择题 满分满分 35 分 分 第四部分第四部分 写作写作 共两节 共两节 满分满分
