My parents and I sat on the bench in Washington, D.C.Union Station, waiting for the train. Inside the waiting hall were many people.A boy sat nearby. His worn jacket, pale face, dirty hands all seemed to tell me that he was homeless.“He must be cold and hungry. Maybe I should help him,” I said to myself.Just at that moment, a well-dressed young couple walked towards him.“Excuse me,” the man bent down. “My wife and I bought two meal boxes but one was enough for us. We hate to waste good food. Can you help us out and put this to use?” he handed the boy a meal box.The boy thanked them and opened the box with joy and care. Suddenly he stopped. In the direction to which he looked, I saw an old man in rags-in a worn sweater, worn trousers and open shoes, entering the hall.Putting the meal box aside, the boy stood and helped the old to his seat. He took off his jacket and covered it on the old mans shoulders, saying, “A gentleman brought me this warm meal but I just finished eating. I hate to waste good food. Can you help me out?” He placed the still-warm meal box in the old mans hands without waiting for an answer.“Sure, son, but if only you share that sandwich with me. Its too much for a man at my age. ”We were all touched. Dad went away and soon returned with cups of hot chocolate and a big pizza. Mum and dad went up to those rags, “Excuse me”I rushed into a KFC and took out my pocket money. It was so cold that afternoon but I felt much warmer than I had ever thought possible.36.Whogave the boy a meal box?A.The young woman.B. The old man.C. The young man. D. Mum and Dad.37.Why didnt the boy have the meal?A. He was not hungry. B. He wanted to help the old man.C. He didnt like the food. D. He saw a sandwich in the meal box.38.What did the writer most probably do at the end of the story?A. He bought some food for the homeless.B. He told his story to the people in the KFC.C. He gave his pocket money to the homeless.D. He asked the other passengers to help the homeless.BIt can be hard to meet people from another culture. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal (信号). Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship. Different cultures emphasize（强调）the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countrieslike the UK or Francepeople find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural（多元文化）environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.39.In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to _.A. keep each other company B. share the same cultureC. get to know each other D. develop closer relations40.The writer mentions his experience in Thailand to show that _.A. too many words are of no useB. the English prefer to make long speechesC. even talk and silence can be culturally differentD. people from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature41.What would be the best title for the passage?A. Multicultural Environment B. Cross-Cultural Differences C. How to Understand Each Other D. How to Build Up a RelationshipCIn a US study, researchers measured (测量) the happiness of 4739 people over 20 years. The study found that a persons happiness depends on the happiness of people he connects with. Surprisingly, it also found that happiness spreads not only between direct friends, but also among friends of your friends friends! And those good feelings seem to have the greatest influence among friends of the same sex (性别).“People with more good friends are less likely to develop depression (情绪低落) and worry,” says Dr. Toupey Luft. “Though you cant choose your family or workmates, you do have control over friendships.” With a little effort, you can add more positive (正面的,积极的) relationships to your social circle. Herere the suggestions:“Nobody is all positive or all negative,” says Luft. “But there are people you may feel more positive. Use that as your way to check people and keep records.” When spending time with others, pay attention to your feeling. Are you feeling tired and unhappy？To help you keep records, Luft suggests taking a moment when you get home to write down what your feeling is when around them.While its great to gather with positive friends, its also good to stay with others in the same life situations. “But if youre all just complaining (抱怨) and nothing is changing, its not healthy,” says Luft. Are your friends negative, or are you doing most of the complaining? Considering the answers to these questions can help you decide if you want to stand in front of them. Or you could let the relationship disappear slowly.Sometimes your hobbies can lead to true friendships. Check out newspapers and websites to find a group or class for something you enjoy. These friends can always be there for you and can care each other through difficulties, illness and death.Not into groups? Look for individual (个人的) communication instead. Luft says, “Set small goals, such as having coffee with one new person, and develop friendship according to a plan. If someone suggests going for lunch sometime, set a date.”“If youre feeling disappointed (失望) with a friend, try talking about what you both need,” says Luft. For example, tell her what you want during hard times in your lives. While your friend may need to be left alone, you may want caring phone calls. With some friends you laugh and have fun together at the moviesand that can be enough. With others, you pay attention to your deep connection.42. What does your happiness depend on, according to the passage?A. How people you connect with feel.B. How many friends you have.C. What situation you are in now.D. What kind of friends you have.43. What does the first suggestion want us to do?A. To measure our happiness.B. To check people around.C. To join a group for hobbies.D. To leave negative friends.44. Which of the following is true?A. We often have many friends during good times but few during hard times.B. Its necessary to complain about something but not right to do so for long.C. Joining a group can bring better friendship than making individual friends. D. All the suggestions tell us to add positive relationship to our social circle.45. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means that _.A. when your friend is sad, you should call her up B. when your friend leaves you, you need comfortC. friends needs may be quite different sometimes D. people may behave differently during hard timesD It is natural for young people, at times, to blame their parents for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained(抱怨) that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they do not trust their children to deal with trouble; that they talk too much about certain problems，and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relations. I think it is true that parents often look down upon their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt, when young.For example, young people like doing things without careful thinking：it is one of their ways of showing that they can accept a challenge(挑战). Older people worry more easily：most of them plan things ahead, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected. So my advice to you is this：when you want to borrow the family car or get your mother to mend something for you, you will have better success if you can possibly ask ahead of time. Young people often make their parents feel angry with their choices in clothes and hairstyles，in singers and music. This is not the main reason. They feel cut off from the adult world. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music and singers, or vocabulary, clothes and hairstyles make their parents feel angry, this gives them more enjoyment. They feel they are better, at least in a small way, and they are leaders in style and taste. Sometimes you dont obey because you do not want your parents to accept what you do. If they did accept, it looks as if you are tricking（辜负） your own age group. But in that case, you are supposing that you are the underdog：you cant win but at least you can keep your honor. This is not an active way of looking at things. It is natural enough，after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents control. But it doesnt notice the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself. If you plan to control your life, co-operation(合作) can be part of the plan. You can make others, especially parents, respect you with your sense of responsibility, so that they will give you the right to do what you want to do.46. The writer is mainly talking to _. A. parents of teenagers B. newspaper readers C. teachers D. teenagers47. The first paragraph is mainly about _. A. the teenagers complaints about their parents B. the teenagers ability to deal with trouble in life C. the parents complaints about their children D. misunderstandings between teenagers and their parents 48. The word “underdog” in the 5th paragraph refers to a person who . A. keeps dogs as pets B. has little chance to succeedC. looks down upon others D. likes to cheat his own age group49. We can infer from the passage that . A. teenagers cant join adult society because they have their own culture B. it is impossible for young people to get along well with older people C. it is true for older people to forget how they felt when they were young D. older people often lead the way in clothes, hairstyles, singers and music50. Which may be a good way to control the life for teenagers?A. Do whatever they like to do. B. Study hard and get good marks. C. Cooperate with others, especially parents. D. Make parents feel angry with their choices in clothes and hairstyles，in singers and music.四、词汇运用（满分15分）A. 单词拼写（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 根据句子大意，在每一空格内填写一词(首字母已给出), 使句子意思完整连贯。51.
