It is also important to come from a particular kind of family， have friends who are considered suitable， have been to a certain type of private school and speak with the right kind of accent. There are people who are poor but who do not think of themselves as working class because their family background， education， political opinions， etc. are different to those of most working-class people. Many people do not like the class system but it is impossible to pretend that these differences do not exist or that British people do not sometimes form opinions in this way.56. The idea of the class system in Britain _.A. exists only in the mind of foreigners B. is now under attack C. is deeply rooted in the British people D. is regarded as a long custom57. If an Englishman has a lot of money，_.A. he may buy an upper class title with moneyB. he is not likely to be from the upper class C. he must be a member of the upper classD. he belongs to the middle class58What does the second paragraph mainly discuss?Aan Englishmans social class is determined by many factorsBtoday many British people do not like the class systemCmany poor people do not consider themselves a lower classDmany rich people do not belong to the upper class59what would be the best title for the passage?AAn Unequal Society BInformation about BritainCBritish people an society DSocial class in Britain BIt is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horribleEverybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheelIt is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the drivers seat is another matter altogether.Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense tooIt takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude drivingOn the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fightingA friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and calm so necessary in modern traffic conditionBut such behaviors of politeness are by no means enoughMany drivers nowadays dont even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerousTypical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may be not able to stop in timeThe same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want toIt always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies (奶奶).An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelingsUnfortunately, modern drivers cant even learn to driveYears ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road usersIt is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.60In the writers opinion, .A. drivers should avoid traffic jamsB. strict traffic rules are badly neededC. unskillful drivers should be punishedD. drivers should show road politeness properly61 The underlined word “give-and-take” in the passage means .Apoliteness and impolitenessBwillingness to give in to each others wishesCoffering help to others as much as possibleDgood manners and bad manners62What is the best title of the passage?ATraffic ProblemsB Road PolitenessCBad Manners on the RoadDGood Drivers and Bad Drivers 63According to the passage, troubles on the road are often caused by .A. road conditions B. the speed of modern lifeC. the behavior of the driversD. the large number of carsCOne day while shopping in a small town in southern California，it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk whose personality conflicted with mine.

My hostility（敌意） toward that clerk increased with each step.On the outside，standing by the road，was a darkskinned young man in his early twenties. His expressive brown eyes met and held mine，and in the next instant a beautiful, dazzling smile covered his face. I gave way immediately. The magnetic（磁力的） power of that smile dissolved all bitterness within me，and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding.“Beautiful day，isnt it？”I remarked，in passing. Then，I turned back. “I really owe you a debt of gratitude，”I said softly.His smile deepened, but he made no attempt to answerA Mexican woman and two men were standing nearbyThe woman stepped forward and volunteered, Sir, but he doesnt speak EnglishDo you want me to tell him something? In that moment I felt transformed（改变）The young mans smile had made a big person of meMy friendliness and good will toward all mankind stood ten feet tallThank you? The woman seemed slightly puzzledI gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leaveJust tell him that, I insistedHell understandI am sure !Oh, what a smile can do!
