IV理解（共20小题。每小题2分，满分40分）
A）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出一个最佳答案。
A
In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes(想当然地认为)it's a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.
In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the attention to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise(产生) between people from cultures that treat time differently. Promptness (准时) is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think if keeping a business associate waiting for an hour. It would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late is expected to make a short apology. If he is less than 5 minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.
56. "The same meaning is attached to telephone calls after 11:00p.m." Here "attached" means _____.
A. taken B. drawn C. given D. shown
57. According to this passage, time plays an important role in _____.
A. everyday life B. school life C. communication D. private life
58. The best title for this passage is _____.
A. The Voice of Time The Importance of Time
C. The Importance of an Announcement D. Time and Tide Wait for No Man
59. According to the passage, the author of the article may agree to which of the following statements?
A. It is appropriate （恰当的） to send your invitation cards three or four days before a dinner party date in U.S.A..
B. It may be appropriate to send your invitation cards to your guests three or four days before a dinner party date in some countries.
C. It is best for one to make telephone calls at eight because it costs much less.
D. If one is less than 5 minutes late, he has to make a short apology.
B
Betty and Harold have been married for years. But one thing still puzzles(困扰) old Harold. How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa, talking, go out to a ballgame, come back three and a half hours later, and they're still sitting on the sofa? Talking?
What in the world, Harold wonders, do they have to talk about?
Betty shrugs. Talk? We're friends.
Researching this matter called friendship, psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men. No matter what their age, their job, their sex, the results were completely clear: women have more friendships than men, and the difference in the content and the quality of those friendships is "marked and unmistakable."
More than two-thirds of the single men Rubin interviewed could not name a best friend. Those who could were likely to name a woman. Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend, and almost always it was a woman. More married men than women named their wife/husband as a best friend, most trusted person, or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress (感情危机). "Most women," says Rubin, "identified(认定) at least one, usually more, trusted friends to whom they could turn in a troubled moment, and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives."
"In general," writes Rubin in her new book, "women's friendships with each other rest on shared emotions and support, but men's relationships are marked by shared activities." For the most part, Rubin says, interactions (交往) between men are emotionally controlled -a good fit with the social requirements of "manly behavior."
"Even when a man is said to be a best friend," Rubin writes, "the two share little about their innermost feelings. Whereas a woman's closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasn't unusual to hear a man say he didn't know his friend's marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa."
60. What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that ______
A. he is treated as an outsider rather than a husband B. women have so much to share
C. women show little interest in ballgames D. he finds his wife difficult to talk to
61. Rubin's study shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to turn to ______
A. a male friend B. a female friend C. her parents D. her husband
62. According to the text, which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society?
A. Ending his marriage without good reason. B. Spending too much time with his friends.
C. Complaining about his marriage trouble. D. Going out to ballgames too often.
63. Which of the following statements is best supported by the last paragraph?
A. Men keep their innermost feelings to themselves.
B. Women are more serious than men about marriage.
C. Men often take sudden action to end their marriage.
D. Women depend on others in making decisions.
64. The research done by psychologist Rubin centers around _____
A. happy and successful marriages B. friendships of men and women
C. emotional problems in marriage D. interactions between men and women
C
