    You are enjoying the beautiful scenery in a quiet place, but suddenly the peace and quiet is interrupted（打断）by the noisy sound of a cellphone(手机)! Cellphones are everywhere, and some people don’t know what the limits of cellphone use are.
    For me, it’s just a matter of education, good manners, and common sense. If I go to a beautiful place, it is because I want to enjoy nature. I can do it, but without bothering (打扰) other people.
    Nowadays, that’s the biggest problem. People disturb other people, first with the ringing of their cellphones and then with their conversations because they usually speak very loudly. Not everybody in a public place should have to listen to private conversations (私人谈话). Even more annoying, you hear just one part of the conversation.
    People need to learn how to use cellphones correctly. If there is an emergency (紧急情况)，cellphones are acceptable, but remember that just a few years ago few people had cellphones and the whole society survived!
    But again, not everybody wants to listen to other people’s private conversations. It’s like smoking. People don’t want to be bothered by smokers. Our society has to learn to respect other people.
    Sometimes when you are talking to someone, that person interrupts the conversation because of a cellphone call, without saying “I’m sorry.” That is bad manners. They don’t know how to respect other people. It’s just common sense! But our society is sometimes so “common senseless!” So, we have to write some rules to prohibit（禁止）cellphone use in some places.
    小题1:What could be the best title for the passage?
    A．Cellphone Manners Are a MustB．How to Use Cellphones
    C．Don’t Disturb OthersD．The Popularity (流行) of Cellphones
    小题2:According to the author, what is the biggest problem nowadays?
    A．People are disturbed by those who use cellphones.
    B．People can’t hear the other part of the conversation.
    C．Private conversations are carried out on cellphones.
    D．Not everyone uses a cellphone in public places.
    小题3:By saying “People don’t want to be bothered by smokers” (Para. 5), the author  really means _____.
    A．smoking also does harm to other people’s health
    B．people don’t want to listen to others talk
    C．people don’t want to be bothered by cellphone talkers
    D．some people don’t want others to smoke
    小题4:Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
    A．If we interrupt the conversation with a cellphone call, we should say sorry.
    B．Some of the cellphone users don’t have good manners.
    C．Before using cellphones, we must know how to respect others.
    D．People who use cellphones are not interested in beautiful scenery at all.

    小题1:A
    小题1:A
    小题1:C
    小题1:D
    小题1:A根据第一段最后一句Cellphones are everywhere, and some people don’t know what the limits of cellphone use are.可知手机到处都是但是有些人不知道使用时的限制以及下问题到打手机的礼貌，故答案为A
    小题1:A根据第三段前两句Nowadays, that’s the biggest problem. People disturb other people, first with the ringing of their cellphones and then with their conversations because they usually speak very loudly.可知答案。
    小题1:C根据划线部分的前一句But again, not everybody wants to listen to other people’s private conversations.不是人人想听别人的谈话可知作者用吸烟的例子来说明情况
    小题1:D People who use cellphones are not interested in beautiful scenery at all.“用手机的人不喜欢美景”与第一段第一句意思背离，第一句是说“你在赏景这时手机铃声打破了这份安宁。”故D选项叙述不正确

    In our culture, the sources of what we call a sense of “mastery”— feeling important and worthwhile — and the sources of what we call a sense of “pleasure”— finding life enjoyable — are not always the same．Women often are told “You can’t have it all.” Sometimes what the speaker really is saying is: “You choose a career, so you can’t expect to have closer relationships or a happy family life.” or “You have a wonderful husband and children — what’s all this about wanting a career?” But women need to understand and develop both aspects of well-being, if they are to feel good about themselves.
    Our study shows that, for women, well-being has two aspects．One is mastery, which includes self-respect, a sense of control over your life, and low levels of anxiety and depression．Mastery is closely related to the “doing” side of life, to work and activity．Pleasure is the other aspect, and it is made up of happiness, satisfaction and optimism．It is tied more closely to the “feeling” side of life．The two are independent of each other．A woman could be high in mastery and low in pleasure, and vice versa（反之亦然）．For example, a woman who has a good job, but whose mother has just died, might be feeling very good about herself and in control of her work life, but the pleasure side could be damaged for a time.
    The concepts of mastery and pleasure can help us identify the sources of well-being for women, and correct past mistakes．In the past, women were encouraged to look only at the feeling side of life as the source of all well-being．But we know that both mastery and pleasure are important．And mastery seems to be achieved largely through work．In our study, all the groups of employed women were valued significantly higher in mastery than women who were not employed.
    A woman’s well-being is developed when she takes on multiple roles．At least by middle adulthood, the women who were involved in a combination of roles — marriages, motherhood, and employment — were the highest in well-being, in spite of warnings about stress and strain.
    小题1:It can be inferred from the first paragraph that ________.
    A．for women, a sense of “mastery” is more important than a sense of “pleasure”
    B．for women, a sense of “pleasure” is more important than a sense of “mastery”
    C．women can’t have a sense of “mastery” and a sense of “pleasure” at the same time
    D．a sense of “mastery” and a sense of “pleasure” are both necessary to women
    小题2:The author’s attitude towards women having a career is________.
    A．negativeB．positive
    C．indifferentD．realistic
    小题3:One can conclude from the passage that if a woman takes on several social roles, ________.
    A．it will be easier for her to overcome stress and strain
    B．she will be more successful in her career
    C．her chances of getting promoted will be greater
    D．her life will be richer and more meaningful
    小题4:Which of the following can be considered as a source of “pleasure” for women?
    A．Family lifeB．Multiple roles in society
    C．Regular employmentD．Freedom from anxiety

    As prices and building costs keep rising, the “do-it-yourself”（DIY）trend in the US continues to grow.
    “We needed furniture for our living room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Roses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.
    Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $520. “I was deeply upset about it. Now I have finished a car repair course, I should be able to fix the car by myself.”
    John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a “do-it-yourself”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’t have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.
    小题1:We can learn from the text that many newly married people__________.
    A．find it hard to pay for what they need
    B．have to learn to make their own furniture
    C．take DIY courses run by the government
    D．seldom go to a department store to buy things
    小题2:John and his wife went to evening classes to learn how to __________.
    A．run a DIY shopB．make or repair things
    C．save time and moneyD．improve the quality of life
    小题3: Jim decided to become a do-it-yourselfer when__________
    A．his car repairs cost too muchB．the car repair class was not helpful
    C．He couldn’t possibly do two jobsD．keeps house and looks after his children
    小题4: When the writer says that Jim has a full-time job at home, he means Jim_________.
    A．makes shoes in his home B．does extra work at night
    C．does his own car and home repairs D．keeps house and looks after his children

    Until recently, women in advertisements wore one of three things — an apron, an attractive dress or a frown. Although that is now changing, many women still feel angry about offending advertisements. “This ad degrades women.” they protested（抗议）.Why does this sort of advertising exist? How can advertisers and ad agencies still produce, sometimes, after months of research, advertising that offends the consumer?
    The ASA, the body which deals with complaints about print media, is carrying out research into how women feel about the way they are pictured in advertisements. Its conclusions are likely to be what the advertising industry already knows: although women are often annoyed by the ads, few feel strong enough to complain.
    Women are not the only victims of poor and boring stereotypes（老套）— in many TV commercials men are seen either as useless, childish fools who are unable to perform the simplest household tasks, or as inconsiderate fellows, always on the lookout for an escape to the pub. But it is women who seem to suffer more from the industry’s inability to put people into an authentic present-day situation. Yet according to Emma Bennett, director of a London advertising agency, women are not aggressive or extremely angry about those stereotypes and sexist （歧视妇女）advertising. “They just find it annoying or tiresome.”
    She says that it is not advertising’s use of the housewife role that bothers women, but the way in which it is handled. “The most important thing is the advertisement’s tone of voice. Women hate being insincerely praised or given desperately down-to-earth common-sense advice.”
    In the end, the responsibility for good advertising must be shared between the advertiser, the advertising agency and the consumer. Advertising does not set trends but it reflects them. It is up to the consumer to tell advertisers where they fail, and the process of change will remain slow until people on the receiving end take the business seriously and make their –feelings known.
    小题1:Despite recent changes in attitudes, some advertisements still fail to        .
    A．change women’s opinions of themselves
    B．show any understanding of consumers’ feelings
    C．persuade the public to buy certain products
    D．meet the needs of the advertising industry
    小题2:According to the writer, the commonest fault of present-day advertising is to         .
    A．condemn the role of the housewifeB．ignore protests about advertisements
    C．present a misleading image of womenD．picture the activities of men wrongly
    小题3:Emma Bennett suggests that advertisement ought to        .
    A．give further emphasis to practical advice
    B．change their style rather than their content
    C．use male images instead of female ones
    D．sing higher praise for women than before
    小题4:We can learn from the passage that advertising industry should         .
    A．take its job more eagerlyB．do more pioneering work
    C．take notice of the public opinionD．concentrate on the products advertised

    AHeading off to college this year? Here are some fashion tips from our experts you should keep in mind:
    Dress to impress: Stylist and business consultant Daniela Smith says, “Girls should keep in mind that your college professors will often be the bridge that connects you to your future career and your classmates will become your professional network. You don’t need to dress like you’re going to the office, but you should display an ability to properly present yourself with appropriate maturity and confidence, and look put together.”
    Logo mania (品牌狂热症): Wearing the logos of brands aimed at younger customers physically identifies you as part of that age group, so consider the targeted age group of the stores you shop at. It’s tempting to load up on logos, especially well-known logos that signify high-end brands. But consider this: college is a time of self-discovery, a chance to develop your own personal style. Instead of wearing logos head to toe, “walking advertisement”-style, why not express who you really are?
    Wear real pants! The combination of leggings and baggy shirts is all too common on college campuses. Smith points out that leggings, yoga pants, and sweatpants are entirely unacceptable in public unless you’re exercising. Although leggings worn as pants are a common trend among high school and college girls, they are not an appropriate choice for daywear. As a young woman, your style choice should begin to reflect your maturity level. So, get rid of leggings and wear real pants!
    Keep the cute factor to a minimum: Stay away from sweaters and T-shirts with smiling animals, cartoon characters, or Hello Kitty on them. Sure, kittens might be cute, but they’re not doing you any favors in the style department. Dressing too cutesy can take years off your look, and not necessarily in a good way!
    小题1: The second paragraph indicates the importance of ________.
    A．impressing professorsB．getting on well with classmates
    C．creating a professional imageD．dressing appropriately
    小题2:The author believes that college girls should ________.
    A．choose a logo that suits their age
    B．try to load up on well-known logos
    C．use logos to show who they are
    D．find their identity by trying different logos
    小题3:The author recommends wearing real pants because ________.
    A．leggings and baggy shirts are too common
    B．yoga pants and sweatpants are not as comfortable
    C．real pants can present you with appropriate maturity
    D．people like real pants better than the other pants
    小题4:What’s the writer’s attitude towards sweaters with animals on them?
    A．They make people look lovely.
    B．They are very fashionable these days.
    C．They will show you’re an animal lover.
    D．They are not suitable for college-aged students.
    小题5:In which magazine would you most likely find this passage?
    A．Business Week.B．Parents.C．In style.D．Travel & Leisure.

    Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, the aged, and children who have lost their parents, but also friends, workmates, relatives and neighbors whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.
    Over 60 years ago, when a Cleveland man noticed that some people, such as children who lost their parents and patients who lay in bed, too often felt forgotten and neglected, he developed in his mind the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this by giving them small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he gave those people small gifts on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to take part in the celebration, which came to be called “Sweetest Day”. Over time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor, the sick and children who had lost their parents was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift. Soon the idea spread to other cities all over the USA.
    Sweetest Day is not based on any single group’s religious beliefs or on a family relationship. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning.
    Because for many people remembering takes the form of gift giving, Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care, in a positive way.
    小题1:What is Cleveland?
    A．An island.B．A country.
    C．A city in America.D．A village in England.
    小题2:What do most people usually do to show their care to others according to the passage?
    A．They give gifts. B．They give money.
    C．They send regards.D．They offer help.
    小题3:What can we learn from the first paragraph?
    A．Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Sunday in October.
    B．Sweetest Day is just an occasion to care about disabled people.
    C．Sweetest Day is an occasion for lovers to express love.
    D．Sweetest Day is a day to make others happy.
    小题4:The underlined word “neglected” in the second paragraph means “______”.
    A．rememberedB．hated
    C．disappointedD．paid little or no attention to
    小题5:Which of the following has little relationship to Sweetest Day?
    A．Visiting sick people of the hospital.
    B．Visiting children who have lost their parents.
    C．Giving flowers to sweethearts.
    D．Giving friends small gifts.

    Aimlessness has hardly been typical of the postwar Japan whose productivity and social harmony are the envy of the United States and Europe. But increasingly the Japanese are seeing a decline of the traditional work-moral values. Ten years ago young people were hardworking and saw their jobs as their primary reason for being, but now Japan has largely fulfilled its economic needs, and young people don't know where they should go next.
    The coming of age of the postwar baby boom and an entry of women into the male-dominated job market have limited the opportunities of teenagers who are already questioning the heavy personal sacrifices involved in climbing Japans rigid social ladder to good schools and jobs. In a recent survey, it was found that only 24.5 percent of Japanese students were fully satisfied with school life, compared with 67.2 percent of students in the United States. In addition, far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than their counterparts did in the ten other countries surveyed.
    While often praised by foreigners for its emphasis on the basics, Japanese education tends to stress test taking and mechanical learning over creativity and self-expression." Those things that do not show up in the test scores, personality, ability, courage or humanity are completely ignored," says Toshiki Kaifu, chairman of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party's education committee." Frustration against this kind of thing leads kids to drop out and run wild." Last year Japan experienced 2,125 incidents of school violence, including 929 assaults on teachers. Amid the outcry, many conservative leaders are seeking a return to the prewar emphasis on moral education. Last year Mitsuo Setoyama, who was then education minister, raised eyebrows when he argued that liberal reforms introduced by the American occupation authorities after World WarⅡ had weakened the "Japanese morality of respect for parents."
    But that may have more to do with Japanese life-styles." In Japan," says educator Yoko Muro, "it’s never a question of whether you enjoy your job and your life, but only how much you can endure." With economic growth becoming centralization, fully 76 percent of Japans, 119 million citizens live in cities where community and the extended family have been abandoned in favor of isolated, two generation households. Urban Japanese have long endured lengthy commutes (travels to and from work) and crowded living conditions, but as the old group and family values weaken, the discomfort is beginning to tell. In the past decade, the Japanese divorce rate, while still well below that of the United States, has increased by more than 50 percent, and suicides have increased by nearly one-quarter.
    小题1: In the Westerners eyes, the postwar Japan was_____ .
    A．under aimless developmentB．a positive example
    C．a rival to the WestD．on the decline
    小题2:According to the author, what may chiefly be responsible for the moral decline of Japanese society?
    A．Women's participation in social activities is limited.
    B．More workers are dissatisfied with their jobs.
    C．Excessive emphasis has been placed on the basics.
    D．The life-style has been influenced by Western values.
    小题3:Which of the following is true according to the author?
    A．Japanese education is praised for helping the young climb the social ladder.
    B．Japanese education is characterized by mechanical learning as well as creativity.　　　　
    C．More stress should be placed on the cultivation of creativity.
    D．Dropping out leads to frustration against test taking.
    小题4:The change in Japanese life-style is revealed in the fact that____.
    A．the young are less tolerant of discomforts
    B．the divorce rate in Japan exceeds that in the U.S.
    C．the Japanese endure more than ever before
    D．the Japanese appreciate their present life

    English families face being limited to 80 bags of rubbish a year. Households throwing away more waste will have to take it to the tip (垃圾站) or buy a limited number of extra bags.

    Doretta Cocks, protester of the Campaign for Weekly Waste Collections, said, “They must think we are fools. How can they claim to be concerned for the environment when they tell people to drive to the local tip? And what do you do if you don’t have a car? Walk?”
    The plan ignores the voice from ministers to end such heavy – handedness (笨拙).
    It is to be carried out by the Tory – led council (市政厅) in Wokingham, Berkshire, and is already in operation in Brozbourne in Hertfordshire.
    Many of the 180 councils that still offer unlimited weekly rubbish collections are watching the trial.
    Wokingham officials have told residents that 75 – litre bags will be given to each household and anything not left in them will not be collected.
    “Every household will receive 80 bags every year,” it said. “You can buy extra bags in rolls of ten but this will not be encouraged.”
    Families of five will get 100 rubbish bags a year and households of six or more will get 120.
    Residents will have a weekly recycling collection limited to cans, paper and cards, plastic bottles and so on.
    Plastic packaging and glass including bottles must either go with the general waste or be taken to recycling points. Green waste pick – ups cost an extra ￡60 a year.
    The council has told residents it will save ￡922,000 a year under the new system. There will be no local consultation (商讨) before it is introduced next April.
    小题1:What’s Doretta Cock’s attitude towards the new plan?
    A．Satisfied.B．Curious.C．Angry.D．Interested.
    小题2:What does the underlined word “this” refer to in the seventh paragraph?
    A．Receiving 80 rubbish bags every year.B．Buying extra bags every year.
    C．Driving to city tips.D．Getting 100 rubbish bags a year.
    小题3:It can be learned from the passage that         .
    A．the new plan is agreed by most ministers
    B．the new plan will waste a lot of money
    C．the government has asked for much advice of the new plan
    D．the new plan does not necessarily do good to the environment
    小题4:Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
    A．English families are limited to 80 bags of rubbish a year
    B．English families can’t clear away their rubbish
    C．English families are angry with their government
    D．English government pays no attention to residents’ interest
