15 小题小题 每小题每小题 2 分分 满满 分分 30 分分 阅读下列短文 从每题所给的 A B C D 四个选项中选出最佳答案 A I was blind but I was ashamed 难为情的 of it if it was known I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help After all I was a teenage girl and I couldn t bear people to look at me and think I was not like them I must have been a terrible danger on the roads Coming across me wandering through the traffic motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes Apart from that there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work One evening I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses and as usual I ran into something I m awfully sorry I said and stepped forward only to run into it again When it happened a third time I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me So I carried on and found the bus stop which was a request stop where the bus wouldn t stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived Generally in this situation because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help I tried to guess at the sound Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away In the end I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop It seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus Of course I heard plenty of buses pass or I thought I did But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself I let them all go by I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one Then I gave up I decided to walk on to the next stop 56 The girl refused to ask for help because she thought A she might be recognized B asking for help looked silly C she was normal and independent D being fond blind was ashamed 57 After the girl got off the bus that evening she A began to run B hit a person as usual C hit a lamppost by accident D was caught by something 58 What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus A Other vehicles also stopped there B It was unreliable for making judgments C More lorries than buses responded to the girl D It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus 59 Finally the girl decided to walk to the next stop hoping A to find people there B to find more buses there C to find the bus by herself there D to find people more helpful there B Coming of Age Day is a Japanese holiday held on the second Monday of January It is held in order to help all those who are 20 or over realize that they have become independent members of society Coming of age ceremonies have been held since the ancient times in Japan In the past boys marked their change to adulthood when they were around 15 and girls celebrated their coming of age when they turned 13 or so It wasn t until 1876 that 20 became the legal age of adulthood These days many women choose to wear traditional clothing a kind of kimono 和服 with special designs For unmarried women this type of kimono is the most formal thing they can wear However such a full set of formal clothing is expensive so it is usually either passed down or rented rather than being bought specially for the occasion Men may also wear traditional clothing Local city governments host special coming of age ceremonies for 20 year olds They gain the right to vote on their twentieth birthday and have new responsibilities as well So the age of 20 is a big turning point for the Japanese All young adults who turned or will turn 20 between April 1 of the previous year and March 31 of the current one and who maintain residency 住所 in the area are invited to attend Government officials give speeches and small presents are handed out to the new adults during the ceremonies After the ceremonies the young adults often gather in groups and go to parties 60 The ceremonies of Coming of Age Day for 20 dated back to A the 16th century B the 17th century C the 18th century D the 19th century 61 According to the passage who is likely to make speech during the coming of age ceremony A The

traditional clothing A It is of great value B It has special designs C It is usually passed on from the elder or rented D It is a kind of less formal uniform 63 When a Japanese reaches 20 it means that he she has the right to A drink B drive C vote D marry C Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences To the Egyptians green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring while for Muslims it means heaven Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures In China children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year For many nations blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils 灾祸 People s choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies reactions 反应 toward them Green is said to be the most restful color It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically People who work in green environments have been found to have fewer stomach aches Red can cause a person s blood pressure to rise and increase people s appetites 食欲 Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant Similarly many commercial websites will have a red Buy Now button because red is a color that easily catches a person s eye Blue is another calming color Unlike red blue can cause people to lose appetite So if you want to eat less some suggest that eating from blue plates can help The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room think about the color carefully 64 Muslims regard green as a symbol of heaven mainly because of their A cultural values B commercial purposes C personal experiences D physical reactions to the color 65 Why will many commercial websites have a red Buy Now button A To relax people physically B To increase people s appetites C To encourage people to make a purchase D
