12．English people think that the home is a place to protect themselves from the outside world，not one for others to see and enjoy．For them，their house is a personal place in which they go to hide away from the troubles of life．
To the Americans，their home is an expression of themselves，a place to show others what kind of people they are．So they would very much like to have visitors in their house and see it．Americans also want their home to be a plac where they can have fun and share their lives with their friends．They often have a large entertainment area in their house so that they can watch sports on TV．They also have an outside area for barbeques．
English people，on the other hand，usually spend much more time with friends at public places like parks or pubs．Few people would be invited an Englishman's home．You could work with a person or live next door to someone for year，but you could never see the inside of his home．
If you are invited，that is great．It's a good idea to bring something to drink or eat，such as a bottle of wine or a box of chocolates，．You can do the same thing in an American home，too．^
Once inside the house，the rules change again．Don't ask to see more than what the English people show you．Never ask how much their house or any of the things in it cost．The Americans，on the other hand，may be glad to show you around their house．They will be pleased when you show your interest and ask how expensive something was．
Both English and American people will have a lot of chat，and a drink or two．before the meal．When you start to eat．you should say how tasty the food is and ask something about it．Remember，never eat with your mouth open and make any noise while you eat．
Another rule in both countries is not to show your own opinion about their country or its customs．Most people are proud of their country and their way of doing things，even though they are not happy with it!So it is best just to listen and smile politely．
Remember these home rules，and you will be invited back again．
57．The underlined（划线的）sentence in Paragraph 2seems to tell us thatA．
A．we can know what kind of people they are from their home
B．American people are good at expressing their own ideas at home
C．the home is the only place for the Americans to express themselves
D．if we go to an American home，the host will show us everything in it
58．From the passage，we learn that English peopleD．
A．often invite their friends to their home
B．have a large entertainment area in their house
C．are always happy with their way of doing things
D．usually spend their time with friends at public places
59．According to the passage，in both England and the US，B．
A．you can ask about how much the house is
B．you should not make any noise while eating
C．it is a good idea to show your opinion about their country
D．the home is a place to protect oneself from the outside world
60．Which of the following might be the best title for the passage？D
A．Home parties B．English way of life．
C Friendly Americans D．Rules on visiting a home．

分析文章大意：本文主要向我们介绍了英国人和美国人对家的理解和认识：英国人认为家是一个保护他们免受外界打扰的地方，而不是让人观赏和享受的，对他们来说，家是一个私人的地方；而对于美国人来说，家是自我的延伸，是表达自我的一种方式，是一个与朋友分享乐趣，分享生活的地方．下文具体介绍了他们理解的不同及拜访别人时所要遵守的规则等．

解答 57-60：ADBD
57题答案：A 细节理解题：根据第二段后文a place to show others what kind of people they are表达他们是什么类型的人的地方．意思与A项吻合，故答案是A．
58题答案：D 细节理解题：根据第三段 English people，on the other hand，usually spend much more time with friends at public places另一方面，英国人通常在公共场所与朋友在一起的时间要更多一些．故答案是D．
59题答案：B 细节理解题：根据第六段never eat with your mouth open and make any noise while you eat．不要张着嘴巴吃饭，吃饭时不要制造任何噪音．这指的是英国人和美国人都应该遵守的规则，故答案是B．
60题答案：D 主旨题：通读全文得知本文主要向我们介绍了英国人和美国人对家的理解和认识的不同及拜访别人时所要遵守的规则等；最后一段Remember these home rules，and you will be invited back again．记住这些家规，你将会被再次邀请．故得出答案可能是D

There is not enough oil in the world now．As time goes by，it becomes less and less．So what are we going to do when oil runs out？Perhaps we will go back to use horses，carriages（马车） and bicycles．
In the Second World War，some people didn't use gas made from petroleum（石油） in their cars．They made gas from wood and plants instead．The car didn't go fast，but they ran，so this was better than nothing．However，in the future，we can't cut down all our trees to make gas； we need our trees for other things，too．
Besides different types of gas，we can also use electricity（电） to run our cars，but first we must make electricity!Some countries have coal and they make electricity with that，but we might not always have coal，either．Other countries have big，strong rivers，and they can use the power of water to turn turbines（涡轮机） and make electricity easily and cheaply．
We are also able to get power from the ocean tides（海潮）．We put turbines into the mouth of the river．When the tide comes in，the water turns the turbines and when it goes out，it turns them again．

4．Text messaging，or simply"texting"，with allows people to send and receive messages on mobile phones，becomes very popular today．
The advantages of texting are obvious．Texting helps to save money．If you have a few words to greet your families and friends on their birthdays or on some important festivals，sending messages can be cheaper than phone calling．Texting helps to save time．Even if you want to send a message to 100people，you can do it one second．Texting helps you to"talk"to someone when he is too busy to answer the phone．Texting can also help you to"talk"to someone secretly if you don't want others to hear what you are talking on the phone．These advantages are so amazing that many people are crazy about it．They hold mobile phones in hands all day long，send dozens of messages each day，and even text while driving or walking．
However，texting has its disadvantages．Junk messages may come into your mobile phone box now and then．When your phone box gets too full，you can't receive any more messages．You may therefore miss some important information．
What's more，if you don't do texting properly，for example texting while driving or walking，it can be dangerous．It can cause injuries and even death．It was reported that about 6，000people were killed and half a million were injured for this reason each year．In Fort Lee，a small town in New Jersey，USA，three people died because they walked into traffic while texting in 2011．Two researchers at Stony Brook University，New York found that texters are 60% more probably to have an accident than others．When people are texting，they don't notice other people or things around them．To reduce traffic accidents，all drivers of the UN are now not allowed to text while driving．About 32countries have passed laws restricting the use of mobile phones while driving．
Texting is a wonderful way of communication．However，only when we use it properly，can we fully enjoy the fun it brings．
37．How many advantages of texting are mentioned in the passage？C
A．Two．B．Three．C．Four．D．Five．
