英语-阅读理解(三) (总分:100.00,做题时间:90分钟) 一、Reading Comprehension(总题数:0,分数:0.00) 二、Passage 1(总题数:1,分数:20.00) When I was a kid, I never knew what my parents—or anyone else—did for a living. As far as I could tell, all grownups had mysterious jobs that involved drinking lots of coffee and arguing about Richard Nixon. If they had job-related stress, they kept it private. Now American families are expected to be more intimate. While this has resulted in a lot more hugs, I love you, and attendance at kids' football games, unfortunately we parents also insist on sharing the frustrations of our work lives. While we have complained about our jobs or fallen asleep in car-pool lines, our children have been noticing. They are worried about us. A new survey, Ask the children, conducted by the Families and Work Institute of New York City, queried more than 1,000 kids between the ages of 8 and 18 about their parents' work lives. If you were granted one wish to change the way your parents' work affected your life, the survey asked kids, what would that wish be? Most parents assumed that children would want more time with them, but only 10% did. Instead, the most common wish (among 34%) was that parents would be less stressed and tired by work. Allison Kevin is the mother of three young children and a professional in the growing field of work/life quality. Kevin counsels employees who are overwhelmed by their work and family obligations to carefully review their commitments—not only at the office but at home and in the community too—and start paring them down. It's not about getting up earlier in the morning so you can get more done, she says. It's about saying no and making choices. We can start by leaving work, and thoughts of work, behind as soon as we start the trip home. Do something to get yourself in a good mood, like listening to music, rather than returning calls on the cell phone. When you get home, change out of your work clothes, let the answering machine take your calls, and stay away from e-mail. When your kids ask about your day, tell them about something good that happened. (In the survey, 69% of moms said they liked their work, but only 42% of kids thought their mothers really did.) Parents can also destress by cutting back on their children's activities. If keeping up with your kid's schedule is killing you, insist that he chooses between karate lessons and the theater troupe. Parents should also sneak away from work and family occasionally to have some fun. I keep a basketball in the trunk of my car. I might never be able to fix everything at work or at home, but at least I can work on my jump shot.
(分数:20.00) (1).Which of the following sentences can be the best title of this passage? A. Kids Say. Chill. B. Kids Stress Parents. C. Parents Complain about work. D. Parents Get in Good Mood.(分数:4.00) A. √ B. C. D. 解析:[解析] 综观全文,A项为正确答案。 (2).The author mentions her own childhood experience to show that ______. A. she never understood why her parents had odd jobs and argued about the president B. she didn't know what her parents did to earn money to support the family when she was young C. she did understand why the American became more and more close and hugged a lot D. she could see that the American parents keep the stress and tiredness from work to themselves(分数:4.00) A. B. C. D. √ 解析:[解析] 本题的题干处是说作者提及她的童年经历的目的。依据句是第一段最后一句的“unfortunately we parents also insist on sharing the frustrations of our work lives. (不幸的是,现在的父母同时也在与子女‘分享'工作上的挫折。)”据此可知,D项为正确答案。 (3).We can infer from the second paragraph that nowadays the children ______. A. are very anxious about their parents for their hard work B. are looking forward to being with their parents C. are very considerate about their parents D. are very ambitious to change their parents' work(分数:4.00) A. B. C. √ D. 解析:[解析] 本题可参照第二段的最后一句“Instead, the most common wish (among 34%) was that parents would be less stressed and tired by work. ”据此可知C项为正确答案。 (4).The phrase paring them down in the third paragraph most likely means ______. A. gathering the work and family duties together B. matching the work quality to life quality C. decreasing the defeating commitments D. denying to fulfill their work and family obligations(分数:4.00) A. B. C. √ D. 解析:[解析] 本题可根据后面的一句话来帮助选择,It's not about getting up earlier in the morning so you can get more done, she says. It's about saying no and making choices.(Levin说:“这并不是要你早点起床来多干些事情,而是要你学会说‘不',学会做选择。”)由此推知“paring them down”的意思是减少不重要的事务。所以C项为正确答案。 (5).Which of the following is NOT the way to destress the parents' heavy burden? A. Forgetting about the job as soon as leaving the office. B. Reducing participating the activities for the office. C. Sharing with the children some happy experience. D. Taking part more actively in community activities.(分数:4.00)

下⾯是由©⽆忧考⽹给⼤家整理的⼀些初中英语阅读理解短⽂,供⼤家参阅!【篇⼀】初中英语阅读理解短⽂ 每个国家都有各⾃⽂化习惯,⽽这种⽂化上的差异往往会引起⼀定的误会,不过只要熟悉对⽅的风俗习惯做到⼊乡随俗,⼀切就OK啦! When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬) elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States. I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the desc ription “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry. In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience. However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn‟t want to hear. After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don‟t respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don‟t show my feelings through words.【篇⼆】初中英语阅读理解短⽂ QQ聊天对我们来说并不陌⽣,但是该不该完全相信⽹友呢?我们究竟该以怎样的⼼态对待⽹络呢?让我们来看看本⽂主⼈公与⽹友的奇遇吧!

2020考研英语阅读理解模拟试题及答案解析三
2020考研英语阅读理解模拟试题及答案解析三Could the bad olddays of economic decline be about to return? Since OPEC agreed to supply-cutsin March, the price of crude oil has jumped to almost $26 a barrel, up fromless than $10 last December. This near-tripling of oil pricescalls up scarymemories of the 1973 oil shock, when prices quadrupled, and 1979-1980, whenthey also almost tripled. Both previous shocks resulted in double-digitinflation and global economic decline. So where are the headlines warning ofgloom and doom this time?The oil price was given another push up this week when Iraqsuspended oil exports. Strengthening economic growth, at the same time aswinter grips the northern hemisphere, could push the price higher still in theshort term。
Yet there are good reasons to expect the economic consequences nowto be less severe than in the 1970s. In most countries the cost of crude oilnow accounts for a smaller share of the price of petrol than it did in the1970s. In Europe, taxes account for up to four-fifths of the retail price, soeven quite big changes in the price of crude have a more muted effect on pumpprices than in the past。

As Leon got older, his father looked into buying a prosthetic hand, which can cost as much as $30,000. Paul found a more affordable solution.One day, Paul discovered a video on the Internet about Robohand, a prosthesis created with a 3Dprinter. He downloaded the free instructions and called Robohand's creators for advice. They told him all he needed was a3D printer一which costs around $2,000- and some materials.Luckily, Leon's school had recently purchased a 3D printer and it offered to help Paul build the hand for Leon.“We used a soccer shin guard(护胫),cardboard, and tape. They cost about$10," says Paul.With his new hand, Leon can do things better.

大学英语阅读理解3
一、阅读理解1、 The West begun to take more notice of the East. The fifth volume of an enormous work re-assessing the Chinese contribution to science and technology is to be published next year. The first volume, which was published twenty years ago, set the tone for the whole work. In it, evidence was given to show that many inventions which, until then, western historians had claimed for Europe, were made first in China. The attempt to rewrite the intellectual history of the world was not received without protest by some reputable historians. However, the evidence that has been presented so far in the first four volumes has persuaded many historians who were skeptical at first. China's invention of paper, printing, the magnetic compass and gunpowder has never been disputed, but this new history has added advanced bridge design, mechanical clocks, paddle boats and many other inventions to the list.In the four volumes published so far no attempt has been made to explain why China has not kept up with the West in science and technology in modern times. It is probable that the answer is to be found in the social and economic history of China, where a static society under a relatively benevolent regime (仁慈的政体) of scholar-gentry (学者绅士) contrasts with the potentially revolutionary and dynamic society of the West at the end of the Middle Ages. In recent years, the Chinese government has been making every effort to catch up with the West again, and there is little doubt that the gap is being reduced year by year. But will China avoid the West's mistakes?(1)、How many volumes have been published so far?A:Five.B:Four.C:Three.D:None.答案: B评析:空(2)、What is special about the first volume?A:It introduces the world intellectual history.B:It introduces the history of Europe.C:It demonstrates that the Chinese made many inventions.D:It explains why China lags behind the west in science and technology.答案: C评析:此题没有评析(3)、In the first paragraph, the word "skeptical" means ______.A:doubtfulB:worriedC:sadD:angry答案: A评析:此题没有评析(4)、Which of the following inventions in NOT made by the Chinese?A:Gunpowder.B:Motor cars.C:Paddle boats.D:Bridge design.答案: B评析:此题没有评析(5)、The best title for this passage isA:Development of Science and Technology in ChinaB:Comparisons Between the East and the WestC:China Is Catching UpD:China's Inventions答案: D评析:此题没有评析2、 Hollywood no longer rules South Korean cinema, which is breaking out all over. Since 1999 Seoul filmmakers have been turning out Asia's first critically applauded films, and "My Wife Is a Gangster" and "Phone" are the most stunningly good examples. In the way Americans tour Hollywood, Asians visit Korea to see sites featured in their favorite movies. Korea once looked to America for idea, but now the reverse is true. Hollywood is snapping up remake rights to dozens of Korean films. Madonna's Maverick Films is remaking the horror film "Phone". And DreamWorks recently bought the rights to another horror film "A Tale of Two Sisters." To capitalize on all the attention, South Korea has moved aggressively to cast itself as the center of Asia's film market.The Seoul government and industry leaders are working to rank the Pusan Film Festival as Cannes(戛纳)East, the festivals where deals get gone, a one-stop place where moviemakers can shop for financing, exports, even location. In preparation for the next Pusan Festival this fall, delegations from Indonesia, Malaysia, Taiwan and all over Asia have been flocking to Seoul to study the Korean film revival. "We look at Korea with an envious eye," says one of Hong Kong moviemakers, "Filmmakers and audiences have found a real vibes (i.e. good atmosphere) between them, like in the 1970s and '80s in Hong Kong."The Korean film industry, however, is still uphill struggle on the way. The annual receipts of Korean films ($580 million) are gaining on those of Asia's largest film industry: India ($820 million) and Japan ($1.93 billion). Yet, Seoul financial markets still tend to see movies as cultural venture, rather than a business. As a moviemaking company in Korea, yet KangJeGyu Films had to team up with another filmmaker and an auto-manufacturer in a new company in order to win a listing on the stock market last year.Despite the restriction, Korean films are capturing a rising share of the local and even Asian markets. The lesson of the Korean revival is that money should be invested both into films and into comprehensive theaters that can sustain a film culture.

高考英语阅读理解和完形填空专项练习三
高考英语阅读理解和完形填空专项练习三一、阅读理解AJim Denevan is an amazing artist whose work is admired by all, but owned by none —that’s because all of Jim’s art is created on an unusual canvas (画布) — the soft sand. He sometimes spends days working on a piece, only to see it washed away by the sea or a storm and that is just the way he likes it.Denevan discovered his artistic talents about ten years ago, when he was wandering aimlessly on the beach with a stick. He ended up drawing a 12-foot-long fish. Since then, Jim has traveled over 1,800 miles while creating over 600 pieces of sand art.Over the years, his drawings have become bigger, but the tools he uses haven’t changed — All he needs is a stick, a garden rake (耙) and most importantly, his lively imagination!Just like any good artist, Jim is quite particular about the “quality” of his canvas, sometimes walking for miles, in search of perfect sand. His latest piece of work, which is also the world’s largest freelance (自由职业的) drawing, was created in the desert sands of Nevada. It took Jim three trips, eight days and over 100 miles of walking to create this 3-mile work of art. It took the storm just one night to destroy it! However, Jim says he actually enjoys watching the waves or rain wash his paintings away.Jim’s art has become very popular over the years and was even the topic of a documentary named “Sandman” in 2005. Jim Denevan is not just about art in the sand — he is also an excellent cook and founder of an organization called “Outstanding in the Field”, whose motto (座右铭) is to celebrate food at its source. Accordingly, group dining events are held outdoors on farms, with the diners being treated to a delicious meal. The events, which are held in different farms throughout America, are always sold out the minute the schedule is announced.1.What do we know about Denevan?A.He used to be a cook.B.He has a gift for creating sand art.C.He puts his work on show regularly.D.He showed artistic talents at a very young age.2.What can we learn from the text?A.Denevan walks a lot to complete his work.B.It is not hard for Denevan to find suitable sand.C.It takes a long time for the storm to destroy Denevan’s work.D.Denevan is very particular about his drawing tools.3.What does Denevan enjoy about his work according to the text?A.Walking a long distance.B.Waiting for the storm to come.C.Looking for a suitable canvas.D.Watching nature destroy his work.4.Which of the following can best describe Denevan?A.Generous.B.Open-minded.C.Imaginative.D.Traditional.BAs we all know, it was Thomas Jefferson who wrote the Declaration of Independence (《独立宣言》). He wrote it in two weeks, and after a few changes, it was accepted by the Congress (国会). As a result, he became famous.Born in Virginia, Thomas Jefferson, a brilliant student at school and almost talented lawyer later, was much interested in politics.Jefferson was elected the Governor of Virginia in 1779, and he was sent to France as the representative of the American government in 1784. Sixteen years later, at the age of 57, he was elected president after Washington and Adams.Far from a handsome man, he was tall with long arms and big hands. Jefferson, who was an amusing talker in conversation but a poor speaker, was generally good-natured.Jefferson was regarded as a defender of freedom in America. As a president, he protected the right of free speech. Interestingly enough, in his eight years as president,Jefferson never vetoed (否决) a bill which the Congress had passed. He did a lot in organizing the new University of Virginia.Thomas Jefferson died on July the fourth, 1826, the fiftieth anniversary of American Independence.1.From the passage we can infer that America won its independence in _______.A.1786B.1800C.1842D.17762.How old was Thomas Jefferson when he became the Governor of Virgina?A.He was 26.B.He was in his forties.C.He was 36.D.We don’t know.3.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Jefferson was an amusing talker, but not good at speaking in public.B.Jefferson was not an easy person to get along with.C.Jefferson was not only very talented but also very handsome.D.Not being politically minded, Jefferson never vetoed a bill passed by the Congress.4.Jefferson’s greatest contribution in American history should be that ________.A.he did a lot in organizing the new University of Virginia.B.he was strongly against the slaveryC.he wrote the Declaration of IndependenceD.he was for the right of free speechCLouis Armstrong had two famous nicknames. Some people called him Bagamo.They said his mouth looked like a large bag.Musicians often called him Pops, as a sign of respect for his influence on the world of music.Born in 1901 in New Orleans, he grew up poor, but lived among great musicians.Jazz was invented in the city a few years before his birth.Armstrong often said, “Jazz and I grew up together.” Armstrong showed a great talent for music when he was taught to play the cornet (短号) at a boy’s home.In his late teens, Armstrong began to live the life of a musician.He played in parades, clubs, and on the steamboats that traveled on the Mississippi River.At that time, New Orleans was famous for the new music of jazz and was home to many great musicians.Armstrong learned fromthe older musicians and soon became respected as their equal.In 1922 he went to Chicago.There, the tale of Louis Armstrong begins.From then until the end of his life, Armstrong was celebrated and loved wherever he went.Armstrong had no equal when it came to playing the American popular song.His cornet playing had a deep humanity (仁爱) and warmth that caused many listeners to say, “Listening to Pops just makes you feel good all over.” He was the father of the jazz style and also one of the best-known and most admired people in the world.His death, on July 6, 1971, was headline news around the world.1.Armstrong was called Pops because he ______.A.looked like a musicianB.showed an interest in musicC.was a musician of much influenceD.traveled to play modern music2.Which statement about Armstrong is true?A.His tale begins in New Orleans.B.He was born before jazz was invented.C.He learned popular music at a boy’s home..D.His music was popular with his listeners3.Which would be the best title for the text?A.The Invention of the Jazz MusicB.The Father of the Jazz StyleC.The Making of a MusicianD.The Spread of Popular Music二、七选五根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

中考英语阅读理解第三辑
中考英语阅读理解第三辑(一)Qi Haoran, a Junior 1 student at High School Attached to Harbin Institute of Technology, was quite busy over the past winter vacatio n—and not just with homework. Qi, together with 10 other classmates made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign(光盘行动).The 11 students went to many restaurants and told people the importance of saving food. “Excuse me. Do you know that 950 million people around the world still haven’t got enough to eat? Could you please not waste food?” They would say this kind of thing hundreds of times every day.China in recent years has experienced serious problems with wasted food. CCTV reported in January that the food Chinese people waste every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year.It’s a tradition that Chinese people offer lots of food when they invite others to dinner. Many even feel that they will lose face if their guests have eaten all their food.Luckily the campaign has got the support of many. In a restaurant in Xinjiang, the owner gives the guests who have eaten all that they ordered a sticker(贴花). People can enjoy a free meal when they have 10 stickers. More than 750 restaurants in Beijing have begun to offer smaller dishes and encourage their guests to take leftovers(剩饭剩菜) home.Wasting food is a serious problem around the world, not only in China. It’s said that 2 billion tons(吨) of food ends up as waste every year. This is as much as half of all the food in the world. The UN Environment Program and the Food and Agriculture Organization held a “Think, Eat, Save” program on January 24 to help reduce(减少) food waste.To reduce food waste is a big task, and it needs time. It’s important that everyone does their bit, just like Qi. Did you finish your meals today?1. What did Qi Haoran and some of his classmates do in the past winter vacation?A.

They were also raising money to fight poverty(贫穷) in the UK and Africa.This day is called Red Nose Day. It is a huge charity event in the UK every other year. On this day, people do something funny to raise money.A charity is an organization, which tries to support others, help animals or protect the environment. Besides Red Nose Day, there are many other creative ways to help people in need around the world.Many charity organizations run charity shops in western countries. The shops sell second-hand goods donated by the public, such as books and clothes. The money raised goes to help sick children and homeless people. Many young people love these shops.The first modern charity shop was opened by UK Oxfam in 1948 and is still in operation. Now, the UK has more than 10,200 charity shops.Another way involves(涉及) many famous people. They hold concerts to raise money and awareness(意识) about charity.For example, the Irish singer Bob Geldof and Scottish musician Midge Ure organized the Live 8 concerts in 2005. The theme was poverty in Africa. There were 10 concerts held in different cities at the same time. Over 1,000 musicians performed to ask people to give their name s, which they made into a “Live 8list”. The list was then presented to world leaders.“This is really a United Nations. The whole world has come together in solidarity(团结) with the poor,” former UN Secretary General(秘书长) Kofi Annan told the BBC.In China, there are many charity organizations, too, such as the Red Cross Society of China, which was set up in 1904, and the Love Without Boundaries(国界) Foundation. Every person can make a difference in helping others in need. Here are some tips for you.●Donating money is a very common way of giving. You must have seen some donation boxes kept in stores and in malls. There is a picture or a message on the box telling where the money will go.

It has become a habit for people in many parts of China, especially in the north, where the smog and PM 2.5 have been greatly affecting (影响) people’s lives.On Dec 8, Beijing issued (发布) its first red alert (红色警报) for heavy air pollution. And during the next few weeks, yellow and orange alerts appeared several times. The Chinese government made the smog alert system in 2013 to measure the air pollution.During the days under the red alert, the PM 2.5 level in Beijing was always around 300. Things were even worse in northeastern China. The level reached over 1,000 in Shenyang on Nov 8.Measures were taken to deal with the smog. The Beijing government set limits (限制) on car use and cut some factory hours. They also suggested people reduce outdoor activities. Classes in kindergartens, primary and middle schools were suspended (暂停) for 6 days total.Although smog makes people stay indoors, the indoor environment does not always mean good air. Many parents started to worry about their children’s health. They suggested schools put air cleaners in classrooms, and some parents in Shanghai even raised money themselves to buy air cleaners.According to the Education Committee of Shanghai and Beijing, the safety of air cleaner systems needs to be proven (证明), and different schools may face problems if they build the system.

The goal is to teach students cooking skills and restaurant management (管理).Stephanie San Sebastian, the master teacher, not only teaches her students how to read recipes (菜谱) and use a knife properly, but she’s also educating them about the benefits of buying loca l, seasonal food. In return, they are developing a taste for fine food and healthy eating.Many of her students admit (承认) to never having even eaten some of the dishes they are now creating. Through the class, San Sebastian has opened their eyes and mouths to new foods.Students have also learned how to experiment with ingredients (原料). Recently, they prepared some pork which lacked (缺少) flavor, so the students created a sauce (酱汁) for the dish. San Sebastian said it was the perfect learning moment.Student Alyssa Morales, 17, says she has learned a lot about using fresh ingredients.“I used to use a lot of canned (罐装的) vegetables, but there is so much more flavor when you buy it fresh,” she says. “Now, my family really likes it when I cook.”Teachers who have eaten at the Blue Coyote Cafe praise the students and their cooking.

Las t Monday, he was on the way home, and his mobile call rang with the same number. He answered it. “Hello! Who’s that?” “Dad, it’s me, Bob. Where are you? Why don’t you come home to see me?” a little boy said.Mr. Black thought it must be the boy who made a wrong call. In the evening, the same number came into his eyes again, and it was a woman’s voice. “I’m sorry to bring you so much trouble, sir. My husband died in an accident one year ago.

However, strictly speaking, Boxing Day is the first weekday after Christmas. Like Christmas Day, Boxing Day is a public holiday. This means i t’s a non﹣working day in the whole of Britain. When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the following Monday is the public holiday.The exact origin(起源)of the holiday is unclear. One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages, when great sailing ships were setting off to discover a new land, a Christmas Box was placed by a priest (神父)on each ship. Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box. It was sealed up and kept on board until the ship came home safely. Then the box was handed over to the priest in the exchange for the saying of a Mass of thanks for the success of the sailing. The priest wouldn’t open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas.One more thought is about the“Alms Box”placed in ever y church on Christmas Day. Worshippers (做礼拜的人)put gifts for the poor into it. These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas. That is why that day became known as Boxing Day.Today, many businesses, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating (捐赠)their time, services and money to aid Food Banks, providing gifts for the poor, or helping families in need. Besides, spending time with family and shopping are popular Boxing Day activities now.1. If Christmas Day is on a Saturday, Boxing Day will be celebrated on_______.A. December 25thB. December 26thC.

The purpose of the passage is_______.A. to praise the kindness of priestsB. to introduce the origins of Boxing DayC. to call on people to help the poorD. to compare Boxing Day with Christmas Day.(八)It is not unusual for us to gather with our nearest and dearest on the weekends. But do you know that holidays, much like relationships, can be “made, maintained (保持) and broken” through conversations? Deborah Tannen, a Georgetown University linguistics (语言学) professor, believes so. She offers suggestions to improve communication at the holiday table and beyond. Let’s take a look.* A round dining table is best for promoting (促成) a lively conversation because everyone faces one another.* Avoid seating grandparents at the ends of a rectangular (长方形的) table, even though it is the traditional place of honor. Elderly people may feel lonely there because they will be unable to hear or keep up with a conversation.* Women prefer to face each other and make eye contact when they talk. Men might look around at other things. “Guys may be more relaxed keeping their gaze on the TV,” says Tannen. “They’ll still be listening, though.”* Be aware (注意的) that people have different ways of talking. Each person has a different sense of tone, rhythm, timing and how long of a pause is normal in a conversation. Be aware of people who seem left out. If you feel you are doing all the talking, hold back to give others a chance to join in. If you feel you aren’t getting a chance to speak, try pushing yourself to start talking when it seems natural or polite.* Some families find that gatherings go more smoothly if they take part in an outdoor activity. Going to a park for a walk may be more enjoyable than sitting around chatting.1. The main purpose of the article is to _______.A. inform us of some basic table mannersB. introduce Deborah Tannen and her achievementsC. give some advice on how to spend weekendsD. suggest how to make the holiday a time of great communication2. According to Deborah Tannen, seating the elders at the ends of a rectangular table _______.A. might prevent them from talkingB. is likely to embarrass themC. is recommended to show them honor and respectD. allows them to follow a conversation3. Which of the following has the closest meaning as the underlined word “smoothly” _______.A. differentlyB. hardlyC. easilyD. gradually4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A. Men tend to make more eye contact than women while talking.B. Men may be more relaxed talking while watching TV.C. Women speak faster and with a higher tone than men.D.

According to Deborah Tannen, you should _____.A. look at the person you are talking withB. listen more carefully when you feel you are not a part of a conversationC. try to find an interesting topic to talk aboutD. not talk endlessly without giving others a chance to speak(一)1-5 (二)1-5 (三)1-5 DABCD (四)1-5 CDCDB(五) 1-5.
