On the New York set of the film Hide and Seek, ten-year-old Dakota Fanning spends her time playing a deeply disturbed girl who deals with her mother's suicide (自殺) by creating an imaginary friend, who may not frighten her family.
Today, though, she has the day off. "This week I only worked two days,"says Fanning, sitting in a sofa in her hotel's library, "but I get bored when I'm not working. Especially because it's cold here and I can't do anything, you know? So, I've been knitting (編織) --- all day, every day."The actress, who's held her own opposite Oscar winners such as Sean Penn and Denzel Washington, recently mastered the fine art of scarves (圍巾). Though she's about ready to move on to hats, she first plans to make a souvenir (紀念品) scarf for Robert De Niro, who plays her father in the film. "He's the nicest guy you'd ever meet in your entire life,"she says, her voice dropping to a whisper. "I would make him a brown one.”
Like any other fifth-grader, Fanning spends several hours a day going to school. In addition to her personal trailer (活動住房) --- which is kept well-supplied with hot chocolate packets, lemon Gatorade, and a TV that doesn't always work --- she has another trailer where her teacher, Jan, conducts classes in history, spelling, reading, math, science and health. "We have this big board where we have a calendar (日歷),"Fanning says. "When we were here in January, I wrote the calendar in all blue. February was red, and March was green.”
On this particular morning, she had a spelling test. "There was a topic for each of the word lists,"she says, sitting on her knees. "This one was flowers --- they were all names like oxygen, carbon dioxide, chrysanthemum (菊花)..."Chrysanthemum? "Well, they didn't make me spell that one. They just had me fill in the ‘e'. But I can spell it: c-h-r-y-s-a-n-t-h-e-m-u-m.”
小題1:Which of the following is NOT true?
A.Dakota Fanning is a young gifted actress.
B.Dakota Fanning is a lonely orphan.
C.Dakota Fanning is a creative pupil.
D.Dakota Fanning has many interests.
小題2: Dakota Fanning has to knit all day in order to _____.
A.kill timeB.make moneyC.master a skillD.make a scarf for her boyfriend
小題3:By saying that "He's the nicest guy you'd ever meet in your entire life”, Dakota Fanning really means that _____.
A.she is the daughter of Robert De Niro
B.she has fallen in love with Robert De Niro
C.she is in love with Robert De Niro
D.she admires Robert De Niro very much
小題4:What would be the best title for the text?
A.Dakota Fanning's Role
B.Dakota Fanning's Knitting Art
C.Dakota Fanning's Day Off
D.Dakota Fanning's Spelling Test

小題1:B
小題2:A
小題3:D
小題4:C

小題1:細節(jié)判斷題。文中并未提及Dakota Fanning是個孤兒,她只是在電影中扮演自殺母親的女兒。其他三項都有所涉及。
小題2:細節(jié)理解題。根據第二段的Especially because it's cold here and I can't do anything可知她編織頭巾等只是為了消磨時間。
小題3:句意理解題。因Dakota只是10歲的小女孩,她為Robert De Niro編織圍巾只是出于羨慕敬仰,談不上相戀。
小題4:歸納標題題。本文著重描述了Dakota休假時的活動,其他三項都是某一個方面的細節(jié)。

Dear Mr. Takashhi,
I am writing to apologize for any misunderstandings that occurred when I showed you around Beijing the other day.

After reading a magazine article, I know that Japanese people give out their business cards   35  they greet others and they would like others to look at their cards carefully. So I should have read your   36  before I put it in my pocket. And I also know why you bought so many things   37 .

As a solo artist, Brightman has sold 26 million albums and two million DVDs in 34 countries. Her musical styles put opera, pop and jazz together. She is popular in the States but not here(Britain) – the image of her and her second husband, Andrew Lloyd Webber (he much older, she his muse) seems for ever frozen.

The 47-year-old singer talks about the new album Symphony that came out of a “very dark time”, including her decision to give up trying to have children. “People have suggested I could adopt,” Brightman says. “But work is central to my life now. And so I am going to put it to one side. After a while not having children becomes the norm and perhaps that might sound alarming, to parents especially, but I have never known anything different. I’m not hurt by not having children. My life and career are incredibly rich.”
Talking about growing up in a large family in Berkhamsted (father a property developer who later committed suicide), she says: “I was gifted as a child, and very musical. I seemed to be good at anything to do with the arts. At 5 I understood the music I was dancing to and had an eye for costume.” She first appeared in a West End musical at 11 and hated boarding school.
Brightman led the saucy dance troupe(辣妹三人舞) Hot Gossip and had her first hit with I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper in 1978. At 18 she married a music manager called Andrew Graham Stewart. “I was probably in love but I can’t remember. Girls change such a lot between 18 and 22. It didn’t really work out.” In 1981 she was spotted by Lloyd Webber. She became his leading lady in Song and Dance, Requiem and Phantom of the Opera. They married in 1984.
Brightman says she felt hostility(敵意) “from the beginning. I haven’t tried to understand it. I’ve done very well everywhere else, especially the US, where I now live, I just accept it for what it is. The more you are away from Britain, the more you appreciate it. But I don’t miss it, although I miss my family. Our profession can be uncomfortable but I enjoy what I do. I get on with it.”
小題1:The first paragraph tells us that _____.
A.Brightman is very popular around the world except in America
B.Brightman’s musical style is a mixture of opera, pop and jazz
C.the British people don’t like her for her style of music
D.Brightman is much older than Andrew Lloyd Webber
小題2:Brightman decided to give up having children because _____.
A.she could adopt oneB.her life and career were unbelievably rich without children
C.she felt it normal not to have childrenD.she was too busy
小題3: The following statements are true except ______.
A.Brightman first appeared in a West End musical at 5
B.Brightman disliked life on the campus
C.Brightman was very gifted when she was young
D.The saucy dance troupe made Brightman famous
小題4:The underlined word in the fourth paragraph probably means _____.
A.locatedB.admiredC.followedD.found
小題5:What does the author try to say in the last paragraph by quoting Brightman’s words?
A.Brightman has to accept the fact that she is liked in Britain
B.Brightman lives in America but she loves her own country
C.The British coldness towards Brightman led to her hatred to her homeland
D.Brightman was at a loss why she was not welcome in Britain

The first reality TV show in the world was called Expedition Robinson and it was shown in Sweden in 1997. Half the population of the country watched the final event and a new kind of TV program was born. Two years later in Holland , the first series of Big Brother was filmed. Again, it was a great success and the final program was watched by 15 million people. Now more than 20 countries around the world have Big Brother or Expedition Robinson on their TV screens. The ordinary people who take part in the programs are known by millions of people in their own countries and reality TV has become big, big business.
For the TV producers, reality TV is a dream come true because many of the programs cost nothing to make. At some point, the television viewers are asked to telephone the program to vote or to apply to take part in the show. It is the cost of these telephone calls that pays for the shows. One of the most popular shows is Pop Idol. In the show a group of attractive young people are made into pop stars. TV viewers vote for their favorite person on the show. The winner makes a record and millions of copies of the record are sold. His or her pictures are published on the covers of magazines or on the front pages of newspapers, and then, they are quickly forgotten.
But not everyone is happy about reality TV. In Portugal, two TV channels got into trouble because they showed too much of the personal lives of the people in the shows. In France, reality TV is called “rubbish TV” and the TV studios of Big Brother were attacked three times in one week. In Greece, Big Brother was described as “ against human rights and civilization”.
