ClozePart OneDirections: Fill in the gaps with any words you think fit.There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the 1 becomes miserable. This arises 2 the different ways in which they consider things, persons and events, and the resulting effects 3 their minds. The people who are 4 be happy fix their attention on the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well 5 dishes, the goodness of the wines, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and 6 only of the contrary things. 7 they are constantly discontented. By their remarks, they sour the pleasures of society, offend many people, and make themselves 8 everywhere. If this turn of mind is founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the 9 to be pitied. The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced 10 its bad effects on their interests and tastes.Part TwoDirections: Choose the ONE that best fits into the passage.1 a human being you have the choice of different basic attitudes2 life.

Their basi cphilosophy is one of competition and efficiency.The third attitude toward life is the 14 of the artist. Here the basic philosophy is “what can I put into it?”, and the basic relation of individual to his fellowmen is 15 of cooperation and common sense.

Reading ComprehensionDirections: Choose the ONE best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.Passage oneSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human conditions is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with life changes and daily hassles. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, wetypically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support ―financial aid, material resources and needed services —that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.1. Interpersonal relationships are important because .A.they can cure a range of illnesses such as heart disease, etc.B.they help people to cope with life in the information eraC.they awaken people’s desire to exchange resourcesD.they are indispensable to people’s social well-being2. Research shows that people’s physical and mental health .A.depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troublesB.relies on the social welfare systems which support themC.has much to do with the amount of support they get from othersD.is closely related to their strength for coping with major changes in their lives3. Which of the fol lowing is closest in meaning to the word “cushions” (Para. 2)?ys the foundation forB.lessens the effect ofC.adds up toD.does away with4. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of .rmational supportB.social companionshipC.instrumental supportD.the strengthening of self-respect5. Social companionship is benefic ial in that .A.it helps strengthen our ties with relativesB.it makes our leisure-time activities more enjoyableC.it enables us to eliminate our faults and mistakesD.it draws our attention away from our worries and troublePassage T woBy the mid-nineteenth century, the term “icebox” had entered the American language, but ice was still only beginning to affect the diet of ordinary citizens in the United States. The ic e trade grew with the growth of cities. Ice was used in hotels and hospitals, and by some forward-looking city dealers in fresh meat, fresh fish, and butter. After the Civil War (1861 -1865), as ice was used to refrigerate freight cars, it also came into household use. Even before 1880, half the ice sold in New Y ork, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, and one-third of that sold in Boston and Chicago, went to families for their own use. This had become possible because a new household convenience, the icebox, a precursor (前身) of the modern refrigerator, had been invented.Making an efficient icebox was not as easy as we might now suppose. In the early nineteenth century, the knowledge of the physics of heat, which was essential to a science of refrigeration, was underdeveloped. The commonsense notion that the best icebox was one that prevented the ice from melting was of course mistaken, for it was the melting of the ice that performed the cooling.Nevertheless, early efforts to economize ice included wrapping the ice in blankets, which kept the ice from doing its job. Not until near the end of the nineteenth century did inventors achieve the delicate balance of insulation and circulation needed for an efficient icebox.But as early as 1803, a Maryland farmer, Thomas Moore, had been on the right track. He owned a farm about twenty miles outside the city of Washington, for which the village of Georgetown was the market center. When he used an icebox of his own design to transport his butter to market, he found that customers would pass up the rapidly melting stuff of his competitors to pay a higher price for his butter, still fresh and hard in neat, one-pound bricks. One advantage of his icebox, Moore explained, was that farmers would no longer have to travel to market at night in order to keep their product cool.6. What does the passage mainly discuss?A.The influence of ice on the dietB.The development of refrigerationC.The transportation of goods to marketD.Sources of ice in the nineteenth century7. The phrase “forwar d-looking” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _________.A.progressiveB.popularC.thriftyD.well-established8. According to the passage, which of the following was an obstacle to the development of the icebox?petition among the owners of refrigerated freight carsB.The lack of a network for the distribution of iceC.The use of inefficient insulationD.Inadequate understanding of physics9. According to the information in the second paragraph, an ideal icebox would .pletely prevent ice from meltingB.stop air from circulatingC.allow ice to melt slowlye blankets to conserve ice10. The author describes Thomas Moore as having been “on the right track”, to indicate that_________.A.the road to the market passed close to Moore’s farmB.Moore was an honest merchantC.Moore was a prosperous farmerD.Moore’s design was fairly successfulPassage ThreeWhether the eyes are “the windows of the soul” is debatable; that they are intensely important in interpersonal communication is a fact. During the first tw o months of a baby’s life, the stimulus that produces a smile is a pair of eyes. The eyes need not be real: a mask with two dots will produce a smile. Significantly, a real human face with eyes covered will not motivate a smile, nor will the sight of only one eye when the face is presented in profile. This attraction to eyes asopposed to the nose or mouth continues as the baby matures. In one study, when American four-year-olds were asked to draw people, 75 percent of them drew people with mouths, but 99 percent of them drew people with eyes. In Japan, however, where babies are carried on their mother’s back, infants do not acquire as much attachment to eyes as they do in other cultures. As a result, Japanese adults make little use of the face either to encode (编码) or decode meaning. In fact, Argyle reveals that the “proper place to focus one’s gaze during a conversation in Japan is on the neck of one’s conversation partner. ”The role of eye contact in a conversational exchange between two Americans is well defined: speakers make contact with the eyes of their listener for about one second, then glance away and they talk; in a few moments they re-establish eye contact with the listener or reassure themselves that their audience is still attentive, then shift their gaze away once more. Listeners, meanwhile, keep their eyes on the face of the speaker, allowing themselves to glance away only briefly. It is important that they are looking at the speaker at the precise moment when the speaker assumes that they are disinterested and either will pause until eye contact is resumed or will terminate the conversation. Just how critical this eye maneuvering is to the maintenance of conversational flow becomes evident when two speakers are wearing dark glasses; there may be a sort of traffic jam of words caused by interruption, false starts, and unpredictable pauses.11. The author is convinced that the eyes are _________.A.something the value of which is largely a matter of long debateB.something through which one can s ee a person’s inner worldC.of considerable significance in making conversations interestingD.of extreme importance in expressing feelings and exchanging ideas12. Babies will not be stimulated to smile by a person _________.A.whose face is seen from the sideB.whose face is covered with a maskC.whose front view is fully perceivedD.whose face is free of any covering13. According to the passage, the Japanese fix their gaze on their conversation partners’ neckbecause _________.A.they don’t like to keep their eyes on the face of the speakerB.they need not communicate through eye contactC.they didn’t have much opportunity to communicate through eye contact in babyhoodD.they don’t think it polite lo have eye contact14. According to the passage, a conversation between two Americans may break down due to________.A.improperly-timed ceasing of eye contactB.eye contact of more than one secondC.one temporarily glancing away from the otherD.constant adjustment of eye contact15. To keep a conversation flowing smoothly, it is better for the participantsA.not to make any interruptionsB.not to glance away from each otherC.not to wear dark spectaclesD.not to make unpredictable pausesPassage FourIs language, like food, a basic human need without which a child at a critical period of life can be starved and damaged? Judging from the experiment of Frederick II in the thirteenth century, it may be so. Hoping to discover what language a child would speak if he heard no mother tongue, he told the nurses to keep silent.All the infants died before the first year. But clearly there was more than lack of language here. What was missing was good mothering. Without good mothering, in the first year of life especially, the capacity to survive is seriously affected.Today no such severe lack exists as described by Frederick. However, some children are still backward in speaking. Most often the reason for this is that the mother is insensitive to the signals of the infant, whose brain is programmed to learn language rapidly. If these sensitive periods are neglected, the ideal time for learning skills passes and they might never be taught so easily again.A bird learns to sing and to fly rapidly at the right time, but the process is slow and hard once the critical stage has passed.Experts suggest that speech stages are reached in a fixed sequence and at a constant age, but there are cases where speech has started late in a child who eventually turns out to be of high IQ. At twelve weeks a baby smiles and makes vowel-like sounds; at twelve months he can speak simple words and understand simple commands; at eighteen months he has a vocabulary of three to fifty words. At three he knows about 1,000 words which he can put into sentences, and at four his language differs from that of his parents in style rather than grammar.Recent evidence suggests that an infant is born with the capacity to speak. What is special about man’s brain compared with that of the monkey is the complex system which enables a child to connect the sight and feel of, say, a toy-bear with the sound pattern “toy-bear”. And even more incredible is the young brain’s ability to pick out an order in language from the mixture of sound around him to analyze, to combine and recombine the parts of a language in new ways.But speech has to be induced (诱导) and this depends on interaction between the mother and the child, where the mother recognizes the signals in the child’s babbling (咿呀学语), grasping and smiling, and responds to them. Insensitivity of the mother to these signals dulls the interaction bec ause the child gets discouraged and sends out only the obvious signals. Sensitivity to the child’s non-verbal signals is essential to the growth and development of language.16. The purpose of Frederick II’s experiment was _________.A.to prove that children are born with the ability to speakB.to discover what language a child would speak without hearing any human speakC.to find out what role careful nursing would play in teaching a child to speakD.to prove that a child could be damaged without learning a language17. The reason some children are backward in speaking is most probably that _____.A.they are incapable of learning language rapidlyB.they are exposed to too much language at onceC.their mothers respond inadequately to their attempts to speakD.their mothers are not intelligent enough to help them18. What is exceptionally remarkable about a child is that ______.A.he is born with the capacity to speakB.he has a brain more complex than an animal’sC.he can produce his own sentencesD.he owes his speech ability to good nursing19. Which of the following can NOT be inferred from the passage?A.The faculty of speech is inborn in man.B.Encouragement is anything but essential to a child in language learning.C.The child’s brain is highly selective.D.Most children learn their language in definite stages.20. If a child starts to speak later than others, he will in future.A.have a high IQB.be less intelligentC.be insensitive to verbal signalsD.not necessarily be backwardV.

(阅读理解题)Passage OneDollars and cents are the basic units of American money. The back of all dollar bills are green (hence “greenbacks”). The commonly used coins are: one cent (penny ), five cents (nickel), 10 cents(dime), and25 cents (quarter). 50 pieces (half dollar) and silver dollars (not really silver anymore) are gaining in usage, while there has been talk of phasing out the penny that's inflation for you. “Always carry plenty of quarters when travelling. Very useful for phones, soda machines, laundry machines, etc.”There is generally no problem in using US dollars in Canada, but this is never possible in reverse.It's useful always to carry small change for things like exact fare buses, but do not carry large sums of cash. Instead keep the bulk of your money in travellers' cheques which can be purchased both in the US and abroad and should be in dollar denominations. The best known cheques are those of American Express, so you will have the least difficulty cashing these, even in out of the way places. Thomas Cook travellers' cheques are also acceptable, especially as lost ones can be reclaimed at some car rental companies. Dollar denomination cheques can be used like regular money. There's no need to cash them at a bank: use them instead to pay for meals, supermarket purchases or whatever. Ten or twenty dollar cheques are accepted like this almost always and you' 11 be given change just as though you'd presented the cashier with dollar bills. Be prepared to show I.D. when you cash your cheques.Credit cards can be even more valuable than travellers' cheques, as they are often used to guarantee room reservations over the phone and are accepted in lieu of deposit when renting a car--indeed without a credit card you may be considered so untrustworthy that not only a deposit but your passport will be held as security too. The major credit cards are VISA, Master Charge and Access, Diners Club and American Express. If you hold a bank card, it could well be worthwhile to increase your credit limit for travel purposes--you should ask your bank manager.(1). (单选题)Why is it useful to carry enough 25-cent coins with you?(本题2.0分)A、They can act as small change for the-exact bus fares.B、There is- generally no problem in using them in Canada.C、As a basic unit of money, they are gradually gaining in usage.D、They may come in handy for pay phones or laundry machines.学生答案： D标准答案：D解析：得分： 2(2). (单选题)It is not necessary to carry cash instead of dollar travellers' cheques because the latter can be ________.(本题2.0分)A、used for phones, bus fares and hotel reservationsB、used to pay in restaurants and big storesC、used like credit cards, even in remote areasD、exchanged easily, even at car rental companies学生答案： B标准答案：B解析：得分： 2(3).

(阅读理解题)Passage TwoOur environment is getting worse and worse with the increase of the world population, which affects the environment in two ways. Firstly, the limited energy resources will be used up much faster. Secondly, the increasing population creates more pollution, another severe problem thatneeds to be solved. Both problems are long-term ones because actions taken now show their results slowly over many years. They are also urgent because delays in action can lead to great suffering and social problems. The question seems to be difficult to handle for most people. However, a person can be a protector of environment in everyday life if he takes actions to save the environment right now. With the development of technology, cars make transportation easier and quicker than before, but we can't ignore the disadvantages brought to us by more and more cars in use. For example, we are consuming gasoline (汽油), which is a non-renewable (无法更新的) resource, and will soon be gone. Moreover, the exhausted gas from cars pollutes our air,and our health is therefore threatened by air pollution, which has a big potential effect on our daily life. So we can consider walking, taking buses, carpooling (合用汽车), instead of driving cars alone. This seems to be a very slow process that can't be so effective if it’s taken by a single person. But when more and more people become aware of the importance and positively take it as their personal responsibilities, the condition of the air will be improved to a great extent.(1). (单选题)According to the writer, the main problem to our environment todayis .(A)(本题2.0分)A、the increase of populationB、he limited energy resourcesC、the more serious air pollutionD、the development of technology学生答案： A标准答案：A解析：得分： 2(2).

(单选题)The author’s main purpose in writing this passage is most probably to ___________ .(本题2.0分)A、complain about people’s slow actions to protect the environmentB、advise people to take actions to protect the environmentC、show himself to be an active environment protectorD、point out the bad effects of technologies in protecting environment 学生答案： B标准答案：B解析：得分： 2(4). (单选题)The author believes that carpooling ____________ .(本题2.0分)A、can give help to those without carsB、can save people money and timeC、can save energy resources and reduce air pollutionD、can promote friendship among drivers学生答案： C标准答案：C(5).

《英语2》(010002)复习题(1)
厦门大学网络教育2018-2019学年第一学期《英语2》课程复习题Ⅰ、Reading ComprehensionPassage 1American society is not nap (午睡) — friendly. In fact, says David Dinges, a sleep specialist at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. “There's even a prohibition against admitting we need sleep”. Nobody wants to be caught napping or found asleep at work. To quote a proverb: “Some sleep five hours, nature requires seven, laziness nine and wickedness eleven.”Wrong. The way not to fall asleep at work is to take naps when you need them. “We have to totally change our attitude toward napping”, says Dr. William Dement of Stanford University, the godfather of sleep research.Last year a national commission led by Dement identified an “America sleep debt” which o ne member said was as important as the national debt. The commission was concerned about the dangers of sleepiness: people causing industrial accidents or falling asleep while driving. This may be why we have a new sleep policy in the White House. According to recent reports, president Clinton is trying to take a half-hour snooze (打瞌睡) every afternoon.About 60 percent of American adults nap when given the opportunity. We seem to have “a mid-afternoon quiet phase” also called “a secondary sleep gate.” Sleeping 15 minutes to two hours in the early afternoon can reduce stress and make us refreshed. Clearly, we were born to nap.We Superstars of Snooze don't nap to replace lost shut-eye or to prepare for a night shift. Rather, we “snack” on sleep, whe never, wherever and at whatever time we feel like it. I myself have napped in buses, cars, planes and on boats; on floors and beds; and in libraries, offices and museums.1. It is commonly accepted in American society that too much sleep is _________.A. HarmfulB. criminalC. unreasonableD. Costly2. The research done by the Dement commission shows that Americans _________.A. don't like to take napsB. are terribly worried about their national debtC. sleep less than what is good for themD. have caused many industrial and traffic accidents3. The purpose of this article is to _________.A. warn us of the wickedness of nappingB. convince the reader of the necessity of nappingC. discuss the side effects of sleepinessD. explain the danger of sleepiness4. The “American sleep debt” (Sentence 1, Paragraph 3) is the result of _________.A. the traditional misconception the Americans have about sleepB. the new sleep policy of the Clinton AdministrationC. the rapid development of American industryD. the Americans' worry about the danger of sleepiness5. The second sentence of the last paragraph tells us that it is _________.A. preferable to have a sound sleep before a night shiftB. good practice to eat something light before we go to bedC. essential to make up for cost sleepD. natural to take a nap whenever we feel the need for itPassage 2Isn't it astonishing how much time we spend talking about food? “Have you ever eaten…?” “What did you have for lunch?” and so on. And yet when you travel from one country to another, you find that people have quite different feelings about food. People often feel that what they eat is normal, and that what other people eat is strange or silly. Eating, like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or five times every day. Australians drink a great deal of beer,and the French drink wine every day.The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another. Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes. New Zealanders eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat. The Japanese don't like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating raw fish.So it seems that although eating is a topic we can talk about for hours, there is very little common sense in what we say about it. People everywhere enjoy eating what they have always eaten, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits.1. The topic people spend much time talking about is _________.A. lunchB. foodC. meatD. bread2. People often feel that what others eat is _________.A. NormalB. badC. strangeD. terrible3. English people drink tea _________ times every day.A. ThreeB. fourC. three or fourD. four or five4. The French drink _________ every day.A. WineB. teaC. coffeeD. orange juice5. People's eating habits _________.A. are easy to changeB. should be changedC. are difficult to changeD. needn't tobe changedPassage 3We all associate colors with feelings and attitudes. In politics dark blue often means “tradition”, and red means “social change”. But blue can also mean sadness (I am feeling blue). White is often for purity. Although in China white is worn for funerals, and red is used to express the joy of a wedding; in Western Europe white is worn at weddings and black for funerals. Advertisers are aware of the importance of selecting color according to the way people react to them. Soap powders come in white and light blue packets (clean and cold, like ice); cereals often come in brown packets (like wheat fields), but cosmetics (化妆箱) never come in brown jars (dirty!).Where do these ideas come from? Max Luscher from the University of Geneva believes that in the beginning life was dictated by two factors beyond our control: night and day. Night brought passivity, and a general slowing down of metabolism(新陈代谢); day brought with it the possibility of action, and increase in the metabolic rate, this providing us with energy and initiative. Dark blue, therefore, is the color of quiet and passivity, bright yellow the color of hope and activity. In prehistoric times, activity as a rule took one of two forms: either we were hunting and attacking, or we were being hunted and defending ourselves against attack. Attack is universally represented by the color red; self preservation by its complement green.1. In Max Luscher's view, the association of colors with feelings and attitudes can be traced backto ________.A. the association of day and night with passivity and action in the ancient time.B. the association of black with funerals in western Europe.C. the association of white with purity in some countriesD. the association of red with joy in China2. Which of the following is NOT true? ________.A. Dark blue brings tragedyB. Dark blue means traditionC. Dark blue represents nightD. Dark blue indicates quietness3. Soap powders come in white and light blue packets to ________.A. resemble iceB. show qualityC. suggest purityD. attract customers4. In Max Luscher's view, which of the following colors is associated with defense?A. redB. blueC. darkD. green5. According to the passage, what kind of people would probably favor yellow?A. People who are passive and conservative.B. People who are creative and aggressive.C. People who are hopeful and active.D. People who are ideal and dreamy.Ⅱ、Vocabulary and Structure1.

The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the coca tree (可可树)by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quicklybecame fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the ―Potato Famine(饥荒)‖ of 1845-1846, and thousands more were forced to leave their homeland and move to America.There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia, a country in Africa. It was first made into a drink by Arab during the 1400’s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a person name Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the ―wide-awake‖ feeling that one-third of the world’s population now sta rts the day with.1.

Which country is the largest coffee producer?A. Brazil.B. Colombia.C. Ethiopia.D. Egypt.5. Which of the following statements is NOT true, according to the passage?A. One third of the world’s population drinks coffee.B. Coffee is native to Colombia.C. Coffee can keep one awake.D. Coffee drinks were first made by Arabs.短文理解2People all over the world today are beginning to hear and learn more and more about the problem of pollution. Pollution is caused either by man’s release of completely new and often artificial (人造的) substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance (物质)，such as oil from oil tankers into the sea.Whatever its underlying reasons, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, individuals and governments would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter and waste. Food comes wrapped up three of four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bottles or tins which can’t be reused. This not only ca uses a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metal and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy things we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excess use and careless disposal (处理) of the products we use in our daily lives.1. The main cause of pollution is __________.A. the release of artificial or natural substances into the environmentB. the production of new industrial goodsC. increased amounts of a natural substance2. Much of the pollution could be controlled if only __________.A. farmers would use less artificial fertilizersB. governments would take effective measuresC. all sides concerned would make more efforts3. Food packages, bottles and tins for drinks can cause __________.A. air and water pollutionB. both a litter problem and a waster of resourcesC. to pay for the service4. Which of the following can not help solving the problem of pollution?A. Cutting out unnecessary buying.B. Reduce excess useC. Eating.5. What does the underlined word ―litter‖ mean in paragraph 2?A. Bits of waste thingsB. serious problemC. industrial pollution短文理解3Some people think they have an answer to the troubles of automobile crowding and dirty air in large cities. Their answer is the bicycle, or ―bike‖.In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They claim that if more people rodebicycles to work there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown section of the city and therefore less dirty air from car engines.For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bike riders. For example, they want the city to draw bicycle lanes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders have to use the same lanes as cars, there are accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes more people would use bikes.But no bicycle lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea - they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business. And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike.The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. Only on weekends, Central Park is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only. But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.1. According to the passage, bicycles ____________.A. are more convenient than carsB. are safer traffic tools than carsC. are the solution to some city problems2. The idea of special bicycle lanes is most favored by ____________.A. the city governmentB. some bike ridersC. some store owners3. ―Bicycle lanes‖ in the third paragraph probably means ____________.A. roads for bicycles onlyB. roads full of bicyclesC. special parts of the road for bicycle riders only4. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. In New York City, many people use bikes as they have special lanesB. Sometimes accidents may occur when cars and bikes are on the same lanes.C. The Central Park is closed to cars on weekends.5. The best title for this passage is ____________.A. Traffic Crowding in New York CityB. Special Lanes for PassengersC. Solution to Traffic Problem in New York。
