7．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．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．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．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．D 标题概括题：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．

19．A school bus is one that is used to take children to and from school．In the USA，about 450，000school buses take more than 25million children to and from school．The yellow school bus is a US icon （象征）．Yellow became the color of school buses in the USA in 1939．Dr．Frank got the good idea．He said it was easy for people to see yellow buses and the black letters on them in early morning or late afternoon．That would make children safer．

16．

Students in the US don't begin their spring break at the same time．It depends on where they live．While students from one town are on vacation，their neighbors in the next town may have classes as usual．
You may have heard of it from many hit US TV shows and movies．It's usually in the middle of March，when characters on shows like Gossip Girl get a week off from classes，go to the beach and throw big parties．It's spring break-or，"party time!"
Unlike our semester，which starts in late February or early March this year，American schools begin as early as January．So in late March and April，most American schools，ranging from kindergartens to colleges，give students one to two weeks off school．
College students often take planes to places like Florida or Cancun，Mexico．They relax on the beach，enjoy cold drinks and get a tan．
Younger kids take trips with their parents，visiting a new state or even a new country．Sometimes teachers lead overseas trips for groups of students．On a ten-day trip，for example，students may go on a tour through Spain，France，and Italy，which gives them a great chance to see different parts of the world．
Having a"staycation"，which means being a tourist in your own city，is another popular trend （趋势）．You can visit local art galleries （美术馆），museums or have a big meal in a nice restaurant．
For those who are not in the mood to go out，spring break is a good time to catch up with hit TV series or play video games．
There are also students who want a different kind of spring break experience．Instead of partying，they choose to do community service，help with disaster-hit areas and do other volunteering work．
No matter how they've spent the break，one thing is for sure-students return to school feeling refreshed （恢复活力的） and ready to finish the school year．

88．Students in the US begin their spring break at a different time，don't they？Yes，they do．．
89．How long does the spring break usually last？For one to two weeks．
90．Where do college students often go during the spring break？They often go to places like Florida and Cancun．
91．According to the passage，how can students spend the spring break differently？Bydoing community service，helping with disaster-hit areas or doing other volunteering work．
92．What's the advantage of having a spring break？Students feel refreshed and ready to finish the school year when they return to school．
93．If you are given the spring break，how will you spend it？Why？I will fly to the places like Florida because I want to enjoy the beach and sunshine．
