分析 文章介紹了美國人在餐館里的就餐的習(xí)慣,怎樣點(diǎn)菜,怎樣給小費(fèi),包括吃不了時(shí)可以帶回家去自己享用.

解答 42-----46 BADBD
42.答案B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第一段最后一句"If you are sitting at a table with people you don't know,it is impolite to light up a cigarette without first asking if it will disturb them."可知,如果你和陌生人同桌,抽煙之前應(yīng)先征求對(duì)方的同意,判斷B項(xiàng)符合題意.
43.答案A.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order.You may find the bread and butter is free,and if you order coffee,you may get a free refill可知,在美國的參觀和咖啡廳里,水是免費(fèi)的.面包和黃油也是免費(fèi)的,咖啡可以免費(fèi)續(xù)杯.故咖啡不是免費(fèi)的,選A.
44.答案D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第四段If you can't finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later,ask your waitress or waiter for a"doggie bag"可知,吃不完的時(shí)候可以用doggie bag打包帶走.故選D.
45.答案B.詞義猜測題.根據(jù)后文This is an especially big noon meal可知,Sunday dinner指的是周日中午的大餐.故選B.
46.答案D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)最后一段A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave.In some restaurants,a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there.Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change可知,小費(fèi)可以在你離開的時(shí)候放在桌上,在一些餐館中,也可以放在服務(wù)員送來的盤子里.故D錯(cuò)誤.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 報(bào)道類文章一般由標(biāo)題(Head line),導(dǎo)語(Introduction),背景(Back ground),主體(Main body)和結(jié)尾(End)五部分構(gòu)成.標(biāo)題是文章中心思想高度而又精辟的概括,但根據(jù)歷年的高考情況來看,這類閱讀理解材料一般不給標(biāo)題,而要同學(xué)們選擇標(biāo)題.導(dǎo)語一般位于整篇文章的首段.背景交待一個(gè)事實(shí)的起因.主體則對(duì)導(dǎo)語概括的事實(shí)進(jìn)行詳細(xì)敘述,這一部分命題往往最多,因此,閱讀時(shí),同學(xué)們要把這部分作為重點(diǎn).結(jié)尾往往也是中心思想的概括,并與導(dǎo)語相呼應(yīng),命題者常在此要設(shè)計(jì)一道推理判斷題.在進(jìn)行推理判斷時(shí),同學(xué)們一定要以閱讀材料所提供的科學(xué)事實(shí)為依據(jù),同時(shí)所得出的結(jié)論還應(yīng)符合基本的科普常識(shí).

14.As we all know,being successful is closely tied to what your attitude is.Today we are going to look at four common beliefs/attitudes held by many that may affect their being successful in many aspects of their lives.
1.Being Lucky
It is all too often people consider the good fortune of others as being the result of pure luck.What a copout!By having the mindset(思維定勢) that luck is something that randomly falls out of the sky,many people put limits on themselves as to what they could have accomplished.
2.Associating Displeasure with Work or Study
Think about how you can perform well in an environment that is boring or unappealing to you.To most failures,I assume your failure is mainly because your heart is not into it and your attitude therefore does not allow you to be at your most productive.
3.      
A commonly accepted belief is:to be successful you MUST devote many hours along with many years.As a matter of fact,long hours and hard work doesn't necessarily mean success.After all,success depends on many factors.
4.Self Imposed Limitations
Many have grown to believe they can not achieve success due to a variety of reasons.In fact it often seems they put more effort into producing reasons as to why they can not succeed than efforts leading to success.
The only limitations we face in our lives are the ones we place upon ourselves. If you are not willing to remove some of these limitations and at least try,you would be content with what you have in life and never possess success.

76.What is the purpose of the writer?(Please answer within 30words.)
The purpose is to inform people of four common beliefs affecting their success and analyze why they are harmful.
77.Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?
Actually,many people would rather make an excuse for their failures than attempts for their success.
In fact it often seems they put more effort into producing reasons as to why they can't succeed than efforts leading to success.
78.Fill in the blank in the passage with proper words.(Please answer within 10words.)
Long hours and hard work equal success
79.As a senior school student,which of the beliefs above might affect your success,and how would you overcome it?(Please answer within 30words.)
The answers may vary.
80.Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.
如果你不愿擺脫部分局限性的看法且做出嘗試,而是滿足于現(xiàn)狀,你永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)擁有成功..

19.IMAGINE that your parents have bought you the most advanced robot.He looks like a real person.He talks to you and plays with you.He can even think for himself and figure out what you need.
It may feel as if you have a considerate new brother who keeps you company all the time.But come to think of it,can you really trust him?
Ever since the first robot was created decades ago,scientists have kept thinking about the task of making robots more like humans.However,as they have gotten closer to that goal,doubts have grown.According to the BBC,Japanese robot designer Masahiro Mori argues that the more lifelike robots become,the more humans feel a connection to them.But once they become too similar to humans,people begin to feel uncomfortable.
This theory is what led to the creation of a brand new robot in Switzerland earlier this month.Roboy,as the new machine is called,has various human-like abilities such as hand-shaking and bicycle-riding,but instead of a skin-like covering,Roboy is wrapped in shiny white armor (盔甲) that clearly shows its robot status.
"As long as people can clearly see that the robot is a machine,even if they project their feelings into it,then they feel comfortable,"Rolf Pfeifer,the creator of Roboy from the University of Zurich,Switzerland,told the BBC.
But the problem that people have with robots is not just with the way they look.It also has to do with the roles that they play in our lives.
A survey last year of European Union countries showed that 88percent of those interviewed agreed that robots are"necessary as they can do jobs that are too hard or dangerous for people",such as space exploration and war fighting.But when it comes to taking care of children,60percent said that robots should not be allowed to participate,because as robots become more advanced and complicated,parents may tend to hand over too much responsibility to them.
No matter what,robots will soon enter our homes,Pfeifer said.What is not yet clear is whether they will act more like servants who work for us or companions who live with us.
61.What is the purpose of the text?B
A.To introduce the newly-invented robot,Roboy.
B.To discuss problems related to designing robots.
C.To explore the roles robots will play in our future lives.
D.To argue what kinds of robots appeal to people more.
62.Why did Pfeifer make Roboy look like a robot?C
A.To better protect it.B.To make it look cool and modern.
C.To make it clearly different from a human.D.To keep its price down.
63.According to the paragraph before the last one,most of the people interviewedB.
A.welcome robots into their homes
B.believe robots are useful for certain dangerous tasks
C.think families with children shouldn't use robots for housework
D.a(chǎn)re afraid that children will become less responsible if robots take care of them
64.Which best describes the author's tone in the article?A
A.Objective.B.Critical.C.Admiring.D.Anxious.
65.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?B
A.The brand new robot in Switzerland can do everything human beings can.
B.Scientists have long been dreaming of creating human-like robots.
C.Robots in the future will serve as human beings'good friends.
D.People won't be comfortable with robots like a machine in the house.

13.Have your parents ever caught you misbehaving--fighting with peers,coming home late or playing computer games when you were supposed to be doing your homework?How did they react?Did they try to talk to you or just yell at you?
Parents used to rely on physical punishments like pushing or spanking(打屁股)to control their children's behavior,which has been proven to be very harmful.Therefore,most parents now choose to simply yell,thinking that language probably won't hurt as much.But is that really so?
Using harsh words such as"lazy"or"stupid"to insult teenagers is just as harmful as hitting,according to a new study carried out at the University of Pittsburgh,US."It cannot reduce or correct their problem behavior,"said Professor Ming-Te Wang,leader of the study."On the contrary,it makes it worse."
The study's subjects were 976 two-parent families with teenage children.Researchers asked the kids about their behavior problems while questioning parents about how often they had cursed (咒罵)or yelled at their kids.
Nearly half of the parents admitted that they'd shouted at their children in the past year.Researchers noted that the kids whose parents used more harsh words experienced more behavior problems afterwards,including fighting,stealing,lying as well as symptoms of depression (抑郁).
"Adolescence is a very sensitive period when kids are trying to develop their self-identities.When you yell,it makes them feel they are not capable,that they are worthless and useless,"Wang said."This may explain why so many parents say that no matter how loud they shout,their teenagers don't listen."
While harsh yelling can stop bad behavior in the moment,it doesn't teach children to behave how parents want them to.What parents need to do is praise their children for good behavior.If parents really need to punish their kids,they should try things like taking away smart phones and reminding them that good behavior will get them back.
67.What does the underlined word"It"in Paragraph 3 refer to?D
A.Punishing teenagers.
B.Controlling children's behavior.
C.Talking to children.
D.Using harsh words.
68.We can know from Professor Ming-Te Wang's study thatA.
A.kids often shouted at won't change their problem behavior
B.kids are unwilling to listen to whatever parents say
C.parents should make a list of their kids'misbehavior
D.kids from two-parent families get more harsh words
69.Why does harsh words have negative effects on kids?C
A.Because they make kids more sensitive when they grow up.
B.Because they make kids tend to yell or curse others.
C.Because they make kids doubt their values and lose confidence.
D.Because they make kids eager to be praised.
70.The last paragraph is chiefly concerned aboutB.
A.how to praise children's good behavior
B.how to deal with children's misbehavior
C.the importance of stopping harsh yelling
D.the way to encourage children to correct mistakes.
