14、 I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didnt understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she
15、was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other s
16、tudents were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible (负责任) for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people
17、do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.Later on, I found out that s
18、he thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girls test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadnt talked of anything about the pe
19、n the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test. 26. The story took place exactly _ .A. in the teachers office B. in an exam roomC. in the s
20、chool D. in the language lab 27. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because _ .A. she had not brought a pen with her B. she had lost her own on her way to schoolC. there was something wrong with her pen D. her own had been taken away by someone 28. The teacher saw all this, so she asked the boy _ .A.
21、to go on writing his paper B. to stop whisperingC. to leave the room immediately D. to stay behind after the exam 29. The thing(s) emphasized in the teachers talk was (were) _ .A. honesty B. sense of duty C. seriousness D. all of the above 30. The boy knew everything _ .A. the moment he was asked to
22、 stay behind B. when the teacher started talking about honestyC. only some time later D. when he was walking out of the room B4 America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchang
23、e Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then ma
24、y become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily. Another difficult point for
25、us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they dont show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, a
26、s hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily rou
27、tine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably. For the Americans, it is often consider
28、ed more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home! 31. The writer of this passage must be _. A. an American B. a Chinese C. a professor D. a student 32. Which of the following statements is TRUE accor
29、ding to the passage? A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families. B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives. C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy. D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long b
30、reak. 33. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be _. A. warmly welcomed at the airport B. offered a ride to his home C. treated hospitably at his home D. treated to dinner in a restaurant 34. The underlined words “gene
31、rous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean _. A. strict with time B. serious with time C. careful with time D. willing to spend time 35. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “_”. A. Friendships between Chinese B. Friendships between Americans C. Americans hospitality D. American
32、s and Chineses views of friendships C5 A rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below 16.Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun a
33、nd adjust the climate. Without the forest cover, these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere,warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns, potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world. In the past hundred years, h
34、umans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources (资源): land for crops, wood for paper and other products, land for raising farm animals. This action affects the environment as a whole. For example,a lot of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)in the air comes from burning the rainforests. P
35、eople obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit. There are two main reasons for this. Firstly, when people cut down trees, generally they can only use the land for a year or two. Secondly, cutting large sections of rainforest
36、s may provide a good supply of wood right now, but in the long run it actually reduces the world s wood supply. Rainforests are often called the worlds drug store. More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests. However, fewer than 1% of rainforest plants have been exami
37、ned for their medical value. It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the worlds shrinking rainforests. 36. Why did humans destroy rainforests in the past hundred years?A. They tried to get crops and paperB. They needed other productsC. They wanted to raise farm
38、 animalsD. They aimed to get three major resources. 37Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they_.

43、est, you set your watch back. If you travel east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours.
