II．阅读理解
A
Dick was
a twenty-year-old man. His father was a teacher and taught chemistry in a
middle school and his mother worked in a shop. They live a happy life until his
parents died one night when suddenly an earthquake broke out. Luckily his
sister took him to see their aunt in the city and they did not stay at home.
Everything was destroyed in the earthquake and the two children got into
trouble. Thanks to their aunt who was not rich enough, they grew up but they
lived a hard life. His sister was so sad that she became a nun(修女). After
he finished middle school, he was introduced to an owner of a hotel and began
to work there.
One day
the young man fell to the ground while he was cleaning a window on the second
floor. He was sent to the hospital and the doctor looked him over. One of his
legs was broken and he had to be in hospital. He said to the nurse., “I’m a
poor man, madam. Arrange a third—class ward(安排一个三病房) for me, please.”
“Can’t
anybody help you?”
“No,
madam,” answered Dick. “I have only a sister. She’s a nun and she’s poor, too.”
“I don’t
think so,” the nurse said angrily. “Nuns usually marry God. And God is the
richest in the world, you know!”
“Well,
then, ” Dick said with a smile. “Please arrange a first—class ward for me and
post the bill(帐单) to my brother—in—law.”
1.The sister and brother lived a hard life because ____________.
A. they lost all B. they were too young
C. they were hurt in the earthquake D. they had to look after themselves
2. After Dick finished middle school, __________.
A. he stayed at home B. he began to look for a job
C. he broke his leg D. he began to work in the hotel
3. Dick asked the nurse not to arrange a first—class ward for him because ______.
A. he used to live in a simple room
B. he wanted to save some money for his sister
C. he liked to stay with the poor
D. he hadn’t got enough money to pay for the bill
4. Which of the following is true?
A. The nurse would arrange a third—class ward for Dick.

B
In 1955.
a man named Raymond Kroc entered a partnership with two brothers named
McDonald. They opened a popular restaurant in California which sold food that
was easy to prepare and serve quickly. Hamburgers. French fries, and cold
drinks were the main food there. Kroc opened similar eating places under the
same name. “McDonald’s”, and they were an instant success. He later took over
the company, and today it is one of the most famous and successful “fast—food”
in America and round the world.
Why was
his idea so successful? Probably the most important reason was that his timing
was right. In the 1950s. most married women stayed home to keep house and take
care of their children. In the 1960s, many women went to work. This meant that
they had less time or energy to prepare meals, so they spent more on “TV
dinners” and fast—food restaurants. Single parents also have little time to
spend in the kitchen. People living alone also depend on this type of food,
since cooking for one is often more trouble than it is worth(值).
Fast—food
is not part of the diet of all Americans. Another trend of the 1960s, sometimes
called the back—to—nature movement influenced（影响） many people to
avoid（避免） food that was packaged or processed(处理). This
preference（偏爱） for natural food continues to this day.
From the
success of Raymond Kroc’s fast—food business, we can say that social economic（经济的）trends
influence where and what we eat.
5. “Cooking for one is often more trouble than it is worth” means that ______.
A.
cooking for some people is worth more money
B. it is
not worthwhile（值得的）to take too much time to cook for one person
C. there
are more problems when one person cooks
D. there
were a lot of housework and preparation to do when one cooks
6. An idea implied but not directly stated in the reading is that _______.
A. many
married women began to work in the 1960s
B.
natural foods are still popular today
C. fast
food is not part of the diet of all Americans
D.
divorce(离婚) causes people to change their eating habits
7.McDonald’s success was mainly because _________.
A.
people living alone depend on fast food
B.
single parents have little time to spend in the kitchen
C. many
women returned to the workplace in the 1960s
D. his
timing was right
8. The main idea of the reading is that _________.
A.
Raymond Kroc is the most successful fast—food business owner in the world
B.
social and economic changes influence eating habits
C.
fast—food is easy to prepare and serve quickly
D.
Americans eat either fast food or natural food
