My car and my best friend
For most, getting your first car opens up a new world of freedom and allows you to go wherever you want, whenever you want. Getting a car did 26 this for me, and it also brought my best friend and me 27 . But then it tore us apart (分开).
My best friend lives three minutes from my 28 . Since her 29 is in late summer,
seven months behind mine, I basically became her 30 when I turned 16 in December.
And so I 31 her up for school and took her home. We made ice-cream 32 , went shopping and to the movies―all in my car. I would drive to her house just to sit on her bed, read magazines and have a good laugh. I went to her house so 33 that she gave me a key 34 her house.
A week after I got my license(驾照),she was with me 35 I had my first accident. She was there and 36 me and we kept it a 37 , since I didn’t want people to 38 . From then on, through thick and thin (共患难), it was just me , my car and my best friend.
High school is a time of 39 , but I couldn’t 40 for a long time 41 we became so distant(疏远) after being so close. My friend waited three months after her birthday to get her dream car:a green 2004 Beetle. With its 42 , the passenger seat of my car became 43 . Our car trips became less frequent (频繁的) 44 I didn’t even drive down her street.
It’s funny how a car can change a relationship so much. I had wanted her to get a car, but once she did, I 45 it. I wanted her friendship back, even if it couldn’t be the same.

In New York, Miss Mckenney began to write stories about the amusing experiences she shared with her sister. These were published in the New York magazine, and later in a book called “My Sister Eileen”. This book was an immediate bestseller, and soon became a hit play. Miss Mckenney has also written a guide to England and a number of serious books on American labor.

In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them.
At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water (自来水) before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill.
Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.
Serving in restaurants is often large, too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself.
Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday dinner”. This is an especially big noon meal.
Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. 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.
54.Which statement is true?
A. American people like sitting with people they don’t know.
B. A hostess always seats a small group at a large table.
C. American people never sit with people they don’t know.
D. American people will not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking.
55. What is served before you order?
A. Bread. B. Butter. C. Coffee. D. Cold water.
56. What do American people always do when servings are too large for them?
A. They take the food home with a “doggie bag” for their dogs.
B. They leave the food on the table and go away.
C. They take the food home with a “doggie bag” and enjoy the food later.
D. They ask the waitress or waiter to keep the food for them.
57.What can you learn about “tips” according to the passage?
A. Customers often add tips to their check.
B. The price of the meal usually includes the tip.
C. People are not expected to pay tips in addition.
D. Tips are supposed to be left on the table when customers leave.

It seems that beauty and women are twins. You are joking? No, I am not. Observe for yourself. Ads on fashion flood TV screens, radio programs, magazines, newspapers, and the streets. Whether they have realized it or not, women are besieged (包围) by a sea of fashion. They are taught to think that without beautiful clothes they will grow old and lose their charm. So who dares to neglect dressing up at the cost of their appearance and youth?
But I do not agree with the opinion that women have to show their beauty through their looks. The richness of their minds proves to be more beautiful and attractive than their looks. A woman who has experienced many troubles and may be called “aunt” or “granny” can still keep up her beauty if she has such excellent qualities as knowledge, ability, a kind heart, great courage, concern for others, etc.
In addition, old and young, beautiful and ugly are relative concept. People who keep a young mind will never feel old. Interested in new things and eager to learn more, they keep up with the tide. Plainly dressed women may have a type of beauty that is pure and real. Reading and learning is the best way to keep one youthful. Good books are rich soil which can feed the flower of one’s heart and looks.
58. According to the first paragraph, why are women caught by a sea of fashion?
A. Because they are rich.
B. Because they are taught to follow any fashion.
C. Because they don’t dare to look attractive.
D. Because they think that they will look youthful and charming with beautiful clothes.
59. Which is more important to a woman in the author’s opinion?
A. Richness of one’s mind. B. Looks. C. Following the fashion. D. Wealth.
60. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. The richness of women’s minds proves to be more beautiful than their looks.
B. A woman who may be called “aunt” is no longer beautiful.
C. A woman who has experienced many troubles may still keep up her beauty.
D. It is not necessary for women to show their beauty through their beautiful clothes.
61. What is the best way for a woman to appear young according to the writer?
A. Dressing up. B. Reading and learning.
C. Feeding the flower. D. Making up.

It seems that the Englishmen just cannot live without sports of some kind. A famous French humorist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?
Of all amateur (业余的) and professional sports in Britain, football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game was born in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier; as an organized game, it goes back to the beginning of the 19th century.
The next is rugby, which is called “football”in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players instead of eleven in a football team . In rugby, an oval-shaped (椭圆形的) ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked.
In summer, cricket (板球) is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.
Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world.
Table tennis, or “Ping-Pong”, surely is not played on a great scale (范围) as it is in China or Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horseback riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.
62. The main purpose of Paragraph 1 is to tell us that the English _______.
A. are sports lovers B. behave like children
C. like to kick a ball around D. want to stay young all their lives
63. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about football and rugby?
A. They differ in the shape of the ball. B. They are played by different numbers of players.
C. Neither of them can be handled. D. They both can be kicked.
64. The game that was never played in Britain until the late 19th century is _______.
A. basketball B. tennis C. rugby D. football
65. What would be the best title for this passage?
A. The most popular sport in Britain B. History of sports
C. Football ── the most popular sport in Britain D. Sports in Britain

Dear Jin Jing,
Your problem is a common one among middle school students. Maybe the following advice can help you. First of all, believe in yourself. Your greatest problem is that you lack self-confidence. The first thing you must do is to smile at your classmates. One smile speaks louder about your wish to make friends than any words. Your smile will show that you are friendly to them. Next, try talking with a student who is as shy as yourself or who shares the same interest as you. You can discuss your studies with a classmate, and you can also talk about your hobbies as well. If anyone is in trouble in life or study, you should be ready to help him or her. Once you have confidence, you can make as many friends as possible.
Yours,
