回答题。

My Parents&39; Change

My surprise over the past few winters has been the personality transformation my parents go through around mid December as they change from Dad and Morn into Grandpa and Grandma. Yes, they become grandparents and are completely different from the people I know the other eleven and a half months of the year.

The first sign of my parents&39; change is the delight they take in visiting toy and children&39;s clothing stores. These two people, who usually dislike anything having to do with shopping malls, become crazy consumers. While they tell me to budget my money and shop wisely, they are buying up every doll and dump truck in sight.

And this is only the beginning of the holidays!

When my brother&39;s children arrive, Grandpa and Grandma come into full form. First they throw out all ideas about a balanced diet for the grandkids. While we were raised in a house where everyone had to take two bites of corn, beets (甜菜 ) , or liver (foods that appeared quite often on our table despite constant complaining ) , the grandchildren never have to eat anything that does not appeal to them. Grandma carries chocolate in her pockets to bribe (贿赂 ) the littlest ones into following her around the house, while Grandpa offers "surprises" of candy and cake to them all day long. Boxes of chocolate-pie disappear while the whole-wheat bread gets hard and stale. The kids love all the sweets, and when the sugar raises their energy levels, Grandma and Grandpa can always decide to leave and do a bit more shopping or go to bed while my brother and sister-in-law try to deal with their highly active kids.

Once the grandchildren have arrived, Grandma and Grandpa also seem to forget all of the responsibility lectures I so often hear in my daily life. If Mickey screams at his sister during dinner, he is "developing his own personality" ; if Nancy breaks Grandma&39;s mirror, she is "just a curious child" . But, if I track mud into the

house while helping to unload groceries, I become "careless"; if I scold one of the grandkids for tearing pages out of my textbook, I am "impatient." If Paula talks back to her mother, Grandma and Grandpa smile at her spirit. If I say one word about all of this excessive love, Morn and Dad reappear to have a talk with me about petty jealousies.

As regards his parents‘ shopping for the grandchildren， the author__________ 查看材料

A.feels jealous

B.feels amazed

请根据短文的内容，回答题。

Sleepless at Night

It was a normal summer night. Humidity (湿气) hung in the thick air. I couldn&39;t go to sleep,partly because of my cold and partly because of my expectations for the next day. My mum had said that tomorrow was going to be a surprise.＜br＞

Sweat stuck to my aching body. Finally, I gathered enough strength to sit up. I looked out of my small window into the night. There was a big bright moon hanging in the sky, giving off a magic light.＜br＞

I couldn&39;t stand the pressure anymore, so I did what I always do to make myself feel better. I went to the bathroom and picked up my toothbrush and toothpaste. I cleaned my teeth as if there was no tomorrow. Back and forth, up and down.＜br＞

Then I walked downstairs to look for some signs of movement, some life. Gladiator, my cat frightened me as he meowed (喵喵地唱出) his sad song. He was on the old orange couch (长沙发) , sitting up on his front legs, waiting for something to happen. He looked at me as if to show "I&39;m lonely, pet me. I need a good hug (紧抱) ." Even the couch begged me to sit on it.＜br＞

In one movement I settled down onto the soft couch. This couch represented my parents&39;＜br＞

marriage, my birth, and hundreds of other little events.＜br＞

As ! held Gladiator, my heart started beating heavily. My mind was flooded with questions:＜br＞

What&39;s life？ Am I really alive？ Are you listening to me？ Every time I moved my hand down Gladiator&39;s body, I had a new thought; each touch sang a different song.＜br＞

I forgot all about the heat and the next day&39;s surprise. The atmosphere was so full of warmth and silence that I sank into its arms. Falling asleep with the big cat in my arms, I felt all my worries slowly move away.

The author of the passage could not go to sleep partly because ___________. 查看材料

A.it was too cold

B.it was too dry

C.he had a cold

D.he had a fever

请根据短文内容，回答题。

Globalization

Nowadays, we hear a lot about the growing threat of globalization, accompanied by those warnings that the rich pattern of local life is being undermined, and many dialects and traditions are becoming extinct. But stop and think for a moment about the many positive aspects that globalization is bringing. Read on and you are bound to feel comforted, ready to face the global future, which is surely inevitable now.＜br＞

Consider the Internet that prime example of our shrinking world. Leaving aside the all-to-familiar worries about pornography and political extremism, even the most narrow-minded must admit that the net offers immeasurable benefits, not just in terms of education, the sector for which it was originally designed, but more importantly on a global level, the spread of news and comment. It will be increasingly difficult for politicians to maintain their regimes of misinformation, as the oppressed will not only fred support and comfort, but also be able to organize themselves more effectively.＜br＞

MTV is another global provider that is often criticized for imposing popular culture on the unsuspecting millions around the world. Yet the viewers&39; judgment on MTV is undoubtedly positive; it is regarded as indispensable by most of the global teenage generation who watch it, a vital part of growing up. And in the final analysis, what harm can a few songs and videos cause？＜br＞

Is the world dominance of brands like Nike and Coca-cola so bad for us, when all is said and done？ Sportswear and soft drinks are harmless products when compared to the many other things that have been globally available for a longer period of time--heroin and cocaine, for example.＜br＞

In any case, just because Nike shoes and Coke cans are for sale, it doesn&39;t mean you have to buy them--even globalization cannot deprive the individual of his free will.＜br＞

Critics of globalization can stop issuing their doom and gloom statements. Life goes on, and has more to offer for many citizens of the world than it did for their parents&39; generation.

Some people feel sad about globalization because they believe it will__________. 查看材料

A.bring threat to the world peace

B.impact the diversified local life

C.disrupt their present easy lifestyle

D.increase the size of people speaking dialects

回答题。

Thanksgiving with the Watsons

People came to America from every country in the world and brought the traditions of their ancestors with them. Thus, most American traditions are not really American. But Thanksgiving (感恩节 ) is different because it started in America. So it is a truly American tradition.

Life provides many good and bad things. Every year, in November, Thanksgiving Day reminds us of the good things in life, and people are thankful. On this day people usually eat turkey and great quantities of other foods. Jesse has decided to spend Thanksgiving with David and Elizabeth Watson because he likes them, and because he cannot go to his parents&39; home in Chicago.

Elizabeth&39;s nickname (昵称 ) is Betty, and people usually call her that. She is the secretary of Jesse&39;s boss. Jesse got to know the Watsons two years ago, and he and Dave have become good friends. Sometimes they go fishing or to a ball game together.

The Watsons live in a small apartment in a suburb of NewYork City. The offices where Betty works are in downtown NewYork, and she has to take a bus and two subway trains to go to work every day. It takes her about one hour to get there. She finds the trip boring and tiring. She wants to stay home in order to take care of the family and enjoy the children. The Watsons have three children. Their daughter Sue is in the fourth grade and their son Paul is in the second grade. They also have a two-year-old daughter, Ann.

The children like Jesse; he is their hero. He tells them stories about foreign countries, about Africa and China, about the Pacific and Japan; he has never even seen most of these countries. He knows about fast cars and new inventions. The Watson children think that Jesse is full of adventures; he is fascinating to them. Frequently he takes them to the park and joins them in their games.

Today Jesse brought Sue a record of her favorite music, because she has a new record player. He also brought Paul a toy truck and Ann a plastic (塑料 ) book with bright pictures, and Betty a bunch of flowes, Betty cooked a nice turkey, and they all ate too much. After dinner the children wanted to go out to the park with Jesse. But they had to stay home, because it was raining. Later, Dave and Jesse sat down in front of the TV to watch a football game.

Thanksgiving is not a truly American tradition. 查看材料

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

My Life at Renda

1 learned very quickly that being a teaching assistant (TA) at the University of Iowa would be differen from a teacher at Renmin University_______(46) Eyes staring, mouths open, students examining my big nose, hands nerv0us,people whispering while I wrote my name on theblackboard.

At Iowa, when my first classes began, half my students still hadn&39;t arrived. When everyone finally found a seat, ringing cellphones and loud yawns (哈欠) interrupted my opening remarks. It is not that American students were disrespectful. ______ (47) They were, however, far more skeptical than the students I had at Renda. The truth is I couldn&39;t fault them for their skepti- cism. Undergraduates at large US universities--especially freshmen and sophomores--often have several classes a semester handled by TAs. In some. cases, the TA sets the course content. ______ (48) Most have good intentions, but only a few are as effective as flesh-and-blood pro- fessors.

Every teacher has to confront obstacles to learning--no matter what the culture. Students who talk during lectures, students who cheat, students who question the grade they get for a paper or project dealing with these is all part of the job. ______ (49)

The difference, I think, is that in the US I had to swallow more of my pride.______ (50) I had a responsibility to teach them, of course, but I had to do so indirectly as a guide who himself had a few things to learn from the students.

A．Back at Renda, I had walked into my first classes feeling like a celebrity.

B．In my students&39; minds, I had little to offer them, except perhaps some sample questionsfor the mid-term exam.

C．In others, the TA works as a grader and discussion leader.

D．I encountered these in China, and I faced them in the US.

E．On the other hand, being taught by a graduate student is not necessarily bad.

F．Most were polite, or at least, indifferent.

阅读材料，回答题：

Knitting

My mother knew how to knit(编织), but she never taught me. She assumed, as did manywomen of her generation, that knitting was no longer a skill worth passing down from mother todaughter. A combination of feminism (女权主义) and consumerism (消费主义 ) made manywomen feel that such homely accomplishments were now out of date. My Grandmother still knitted, though, and every Christmas she made a pair of socks for my brother and me, of red wool.

They were the ones we wore under our ice skates (冰鞋), when it was really important to havewarm feet.

Knitting is a nervous habit that happens to be productive. It helped me quit smoking by giv-ing my hands something else to do 。it is wonderful for depression because no matter what else

happens, you are creating something beautiful. Time spent in front of the television or just sittingis no longer time wasted.

I love breathing life into the patterns. It&39;s true magic, finding a neglected, dog-eared oldbook with the perfect snowflake design, buying the same Germantown wool my grandmother used,in the exact blue to match my daughter&39;s eyes, taking it on the train with me every day for twomonths, working enthusiastically to get it done by Christmas, staying up late after the stockingsare filled to sew in the sleeves and weave in the ends.

Knitting has taught me patience. I know that if I just keep going, even if it takes months,there will be a reward. When I make a mistake, I know that anger will not fix it, that I just haveto go back and take out the stitches(针脚) between and start over again.

People often ask if I would do it for money, and the answer is always a definite no. In thefirst place, you could not pay me enough for the hours I put into a sweater. But more important,this is an activity I keep separate from such considerations. I knit it to cover my children and oth-er people I love in warmth and color. I knit to give them something earthly that money could neverbuy.

Knitting gives my life an alternative rhythm to the daily deadline. By day I can write aboutNorthern Ireland or the New York City Police Department and get paid for it, but on the trainhome, surrounded by people with laptops, I stage my little rebellion. I take out my old knittingbag and join the centuries of women who have knitted for love.

Why did many women feel that knitting was out of date？ 查看材料

A.Because their mothers didn"t teach them.

B.Because they were influenced by feminism and consumerism.

C.Because they were feminists.

D.Because t.hey were eonsumerists.
