Long, long ago there was no zero. To write the number sixty-three people wrote

was there to mean.

Later people used a dot to hold the space. Six hundred and three looked like this
6.3. But the dot was hard to see. So people put a circle around it like this 6

Passage 2
If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak,
and when
you start
using them again,
they slowly become strong again. Everybody
knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same
way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps
his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor,
he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault.
But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be
blamed, and few of us know
that it is
just
his own fault. Have
you ever found that
some
people
can't
read
or
write
but
usually
they
have
better
memories?
This
is
because
they
cannot
read
or
write
and
when
they
have
to
remember
things,
they
cannot write them down in a small notebook. As a result, they have to remember days,
names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time.
So
if
you
want
to
have
a
good
memory,
learn
from
the
people:
practice
remembering things in a way as other people do.
1. Someone can't have a good memory if ________.
A. he can't read or write










B. his parents haven't a good memory

C. he doesn't make good use of his memory


D. he doesn't use his arms or legs for some time
2. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, ________.
A. they will become thin




B. they will become weak

C. they begin to ache all over


D. you can't use them any more

3. Which of the following statements is true?


A. Your memory needs chance for practice.


B. A good memory is inherited from parents.


C. Your memory works in the different ways as your arms or legs.


D. Don't learn to read and write if you want to have a good memory.
4. Few people know that if someone has a poor memory it is ________.
A. his own fault














B. his parents' fault


C. his teachers' fault









D. his friends' fault
5. The writer wants to tell us ________.
A. how to read and write well

B. how to have a good memory
C. how to use our arms or legs better

D. how to learn from the people who can't read or write
Passage 3
A
foreigner's
first
impression
of
the
U.S.
is
likely
to
be
that
everyone
is
in
a
rush-often under pressure. City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they
are
going restlessly, seeking attention in
a store, and elbowing others as
they try to
complete their errands(
任务
). Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life
in this country.

Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating places are waiting
for you to finish so that they too can be served and get back to work within the time
allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next person. If you don’t, waiters
will hurry you.
You also find drivers will be abrupt and people will push past you. You will miss
smiles,
brief
conversations,
and
small
courtesies
with
strangers.
Don't
take
it
personally.
This
is
because
people
value
time
highly,
and
they
resent
someone
else


The view of time affects the importance we attach to patience. In the American
system
of
values,
patience
is
not
a
high
priority.
Many
of
us
have
what
might
be
called “a short fuse.” We begin
to
move restlessly about
if we feel
time is
slipping
away
without
some
re-turnbe
this
in
terms
of
pleasure,
work
value,
or
rest.
Those
coming from lands where time is looked upon differently may find this matter of pace
to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life.

Many newcomers to the States will miss the opening courtesy of a business call,
for example, They will miss the ritual interaction that goes with a welcoming cup of
tea or coffee that may be a convention in their own country. They may miss leisurely
business
chats
in
a
café

or
coffee
house.
Normally,
Americans
do
not
assess
their
visitors
in
such
relaxed
surroundings
over
prolonged
small
talks.
We
seek
out
evidence of past performance rather than evaluate a business colleague through social
courtesies. Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we
start talking business very quickly.
1. Which of the following statements is wrong?




A. Americans seem to be always under pressure.



B. Americans attach less importance to patience.



C. Americans don’t care much about ritual socializing.




D. Americans are impolite to their business colleagues.
2. In the fourth paragraph,
“
a high priority
”
means ________
？




A. a less important thing










B. a first concern



C. a good business















D. an attractive gift
3. Americans evaluate a business colleague ________.




A. through social courtesy



B. through prolonged business talks



C. by establishing business relations



D. by learning about their past performance
4. This passage mainly talks about ________.













A. how Americans treasure their time



B. how busy Americans are every day



C. how Americans do business with foreigners



D. what American way of life is like
5. We can infer from the passage that the author
’
s tone in writing is ________.







A. critical




B. ironical






C. appreciative




D. objective

Passage 4
精品

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 it’s a matter
of life or 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 invitation 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 between
people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness 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 of keeping a business
associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late,
will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.

Passage 5
People used to say,
摇
) the cradle (
摇篮
) rules the world,

’
s a woman.
same thing: Men rule the world, but their wives rule them.




Most of the American women like making their husbands and sons
successful,
but some of them want something for themselves. They want good jobs. When they
work, they want to be better paid, they want to be as successful as men.




The
American
women’s
liberation
movement
was
started
by
the
women
who
don’t
want
to
stand
behind
successful
men.
They
don’t
want
to
be
told that
certain
jobs of offices are closed to them. They refuse to work side by side with men who do
the same work for a higher pay.




A
liberated
woman
must
be
proud
of
being
a
woman
and
confidence
(
信心
)
herself. If somebody says to her,
’
ve come a long way, baby.
’
ll smile and
answer.
’
m going to go , baby.

already made some important changes in women’s lives
