After buying .some magazines to read on the journey, I made my way to the luggage office to collect the heavy suitcase. I had left three days before. There were only a few people waiting, and I took out my wallet to find the receipt for my case. The receipt did not seem to be where I had left it. I emptied the contents of the wallet, and railway tickets, money, scraps of paper, and photographs tumbled out of it; but no matter how hard I searched, the receipt was nowhere to be found.When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant. The man looked at me suspiciously as if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to describe the case, I told him that it was an old, brown — looking object no different from the many cases I could see on the shelves. The assistant then gave me a form and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the case. If they were correct, he said, I could take the case away. I tried to remember all the articles I had hurriedly packed and wrote them down as they came to me.After I had done this, I went to look among the shelves. There were hundreds of cases there and for one dreadful moment, it occurred to me that if someone had picked the receipt up, he could have easily claimed the case already. This had not happened fortunately, for after a time, I found the case lying on its side high up in a comer. After examining the articles inside, the assistant was .soon satisfied that it was mine and told me I could take the case away. Again I took out my wallet: this time to pay. I pulled out a ten— shilling note and the "lost" receipt slipped out with it. I could not help blushing and glanced up at the assistant. He was nodding his head knowingly, as if to say that he had often seen this happen before too!1. The writer needed the receipt ____.A. to claim his suitcaseB. to pay at the luggage officeC. to prove that he had paid at the luggage officeD. to prove that he had bought the suitcase2. The writer felt foolish because ____.A. he couldn't find his receiptB. he hadn't really lost his receipt at allC. he had to fill in a formD. the assistant was laughing at him3. There weren't ______ people waiting at the luggage office.A. very muchB. a lotC. lotsD. very many4. 'situation' means .A. incidentB. eventC. placeD. position5. ' wrote them down ' means ____.A. copied themB. made a note of themC. signed themD. pointed at themPassage2The word conservation has a thrifty meaning. To conserve is to save and protect, to leave what we ourselves enjoy in such good condition that others may also share the enjoyment.Our forefathers had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of raw materials: most of them, even until very recently, had the foolish idea that the treasures were "limitless" and "inexhaustible". Most of the citizens of earlier generations knew little or nothing about the complicated and delicate system that runs all through nature, and which means that, as in a living body, an unhealthy condition of one part will sooner or later be harmful to all the othersFifty years ago, nature study was not part of the school work; scientific forestry was a new idea; timber was still cheap because it could be brought in any quantity from distant woodlands; soil destruction and river floods were not national problems; nobody had yet studied long— term climatic cycles in relation to proper land use; even the word "conservation "had nothing of the meaning that it has for us today.For the sake of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about repairing the mistakes of our forefathers. Conservation should, therefore, be made a part of everyone's daily life. To know about the water table (地下⽔位) in the ground is just as important to us as a knowledge of the basic arithmetic formulas. We need to know why all watersheds need the protection of plant life and why the running current of streams and rivers must be made to yield their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea. We need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them. We need to know the importance of big, mature trees, because living space for most of man's fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic volume above the earth. In brief, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can.6. The author's altitude towards current situation in the exploitation of natural resources isA. criticalB. neutralC. positiveD. suspicious7. According to the author, the greatest mistake of our forefathers was that _____A. they had no idea about scientific forestryB. they were not aware of the significance of nature studyC. they had little or no sense of environmental protectionD. they had no idea of how to make good use of raw materials8. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that earlier generations didn't realizeA. the importance of the proper use of landB. the value of the beauty of natureC. the harmfulness of soil destruction and river floodsD. the interdependence of water, soil, and living things9. To avoid the mistakes of our forefathers, the author suggests that ______.A. we plant more treesB. we return to natureC. natural sciences be taught to everybodyD. environmental education be directed toward everyone10. What does the author imply by saying "living space ''is figured ''also in cubic volume above the earth" ? ( para.3 )A. We need to take some measures to protect spaceB. Our living space should measured in cubic volumeC. Our living space on the earth is getting smaller and smallerD. We must preserve good living conditions for both birds and animalsⅣ Translate the following phrases(翻译下列短语:汉语译成英语;英语译成汉语。

We ma y get nervous, forget what we want to say, or talk too long and bore our audience. Later we may think, “Thank goodness, it’s over. I’m not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”It doesn’t have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech-making. First of all, it is important to plan.

Don’t spoil your speech by confusing one speaking role with another.When you are making your speech, try to relax. Speak slowly and clearly and look at people in your audience. Use simple vocabulary and expressions whenever possible.

Many American colleges and universities have been offering it for years.One example is New York University in Manhattan. The School of Continuing and Professional Studies began online classes in nineteen ninety-two. Its Virtual College has taught more than ten thousand students from across the United States and other countries.Last year, the School of Continuing and Professional Studies launched NYU Online. It offers NYU's first online programs to earn a bachelor's degree. Programs are offered in three areas: leadership and management, information systems management and social sciences. University officials say classes are highly interactive, where students communicate with each other and their teachers. Some classes require students to all log in at the same time so they can attend live lectures by a professor. Students can also ask questions and work together on team projects. The university says classes are taught by NYU professors who have been trained in online teaching.International students must take two admissions tests before they can be accepted into the program. These are the SAT and the TOEFL. We will discuss these tests later in our series.The cost to attend NYU Online depends on how many classes a student takes. It can cost as much as fifteen thousand dollars a year. NYU offers no financial aid for international students in this program. You can get more details at .6.

In addition, the King hoped to build a governmental center apart from Paris.The palace took 36,000 workers fifty years to build. The palace is spread out over 280 acres and can house 20,000 people! The palace features over 700 rooms and 67 staircases. There are dozens of unique rooms, features, gardens, and halls.

The hall, which measures 73 meters in length features 357 gold-coated stucco mirrors, ornate paintings, crystal chandeliers, marble fixtures, a parquet floor, and ceilings with colorful murals painted by artist Charles Le Brun.

大学英语(1)期末考试复习资料模拟题大学英语(1)期末考试复习资料模拟题一、阅读:( 1 )There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.1. Our long-term goals mean a lot ___B____.A. if we cannot reach solid short-term goalsB. if we complete the short-term goalsC. if we have dreams of the futureD. if we put forward some plans2. New short-term goals are built upon___D___.A. a daily basisB. your achievement in a weekC. current activitiesD. the goals that have been completed3. When we complete each step of our goals, ____C____.A. we will win final successB. we are overwhelmedC. we will build up our confidence to achieve successD. we should have strong desire for setting new goals4. What is the main idea of this passage? ___C____A. Life is a dynamic thing.B. We should set up long-term goals.C. Different kinds of goals in life.D. The limitation of long-term goals.5. Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? ___C____A. The long-term goals cannot amount to very much without achieving short-term goals.B. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.C. Life is a static thing, thus never allowing a long-term goal to limit us.D. We should often add new short-term goals to what have been completed.( 2 )The angry woman stood by the station. “ The railway owesme £12,”she said to Harry Jenks, the booking clerk (订票员). “My ticket was for May 22nd, and there was no ship from Jersey that night. My daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me £12.”Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “ Come into the office, madam,” he said, “ I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd .”The woman and her little girl followed him inside.

That is why I got wet through.She is fond of collecting stamps.This problem is beyond his ability and I do not think he can solve it.The clock struck eleven at night.The whole house was quiet.Everyone wasin bed except me.Under the strong light,I looked sadly before a huge pile of troublesome stuff they call“books”.I was going to have my examination thenext day."When can I go to bed?"I asked myself.I didn’t answer,in fact I dared not. The clock struck12."Oh,dear!"I cried,"ten more books to read before I can go to b ed!”We are the most wretched creatures in the world.Dad does notagree with me on this.He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy."The cloc k struck one.I was quite hopeless now.I forgot all I had learnt.I wastoo tired to go on.I did the only thing I could.I prayed,“Oh,God,Please helpme pass the exam tomorrow.I do promise to work hard afterwards,Amen.”My eyes were heavy,so heavy that I could hardly open them.A few minuteslater,with my head on the desk,I fell asleep.1.When the author was going over his lessons,all the others in the housewere_____.[选项A]asleep[选项B]working in bed[选项C]outside[选项D]quietly laughing at him[答案]A2.Reviewing his lessons didn’t help him because________.[选项A]it was too late at night[选项B]he was very tired[选项C]his eyes lids were so heavy that he couldn’t keep them open[选项D]he hadn’t studied hard before the examination[答案]D3.What do you suppose happened to the author?_________[选项A]He went to a church to pray again[选项B]He passed the exam by luck[选项C]He failed in the exam[选项D]He was punished by his teacher[答案]C4.The best title for the passage would be__________.[选项A]The Night Before the Examination[选项B]Working Far into the Night[选项C]A Slow Student[选项D]Going Over My Lessons[答案]A5.The word“wretched”in the second paragraph refers to_______.[选项A]可怜的[选项B]坏蛋[选项C]快乐的[选项D]倒霉的[答案]AWhy play games?Because they are fun,and a lot more besides.Following rules…plan ning your next move…acting as a team member…these are all“game”ideas that you will come across throughout your life.Think about some of the games you played as a young child,such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek.Such games are entertaining and fun.But perhaps more importan tly,they translate life into exciting dramas that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives,such as taking turns and cooper ating(合作).Many children’s games have a practical side.Children around the world play game s that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups.For instance,some Saudi Ara bian children play a game called bones,which sharpens the hand-eye coordination(协调)needed in hunting.Many sports encourage national or local pride.The most famous games of all,the Olympic Games,bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendl y competition.People who watch the event wave flags,knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country,not just the athlete who earned it.For countries experien cing natural disasters or war,an Olympic win can mean so much.Sports are also an event that unites(团结)people.Soccer is the most popular sport in the world.People on all continents pl ay it—some for fun and some for a living.Nicolette Iribarne,a Californian soccer player,has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer.He created afoundation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a promising fu ture.Next time you play your favorite game of sport,think about why you enjoy it,what skills are needed,and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life. 1.Through playing hide-and-seek,children are expected to learn to().[选项A]be a team leader[选项B]obey the basic rules[选项C]act as a grown-up[选项D]predict possible danger[答案]B2.The underlined part in Paragraph2most probably means that games can().

Reading ComprehensionDirections:There are 10 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet.Passage 1 DACDBThe angry woman stood on the station platform (月台). “The railway should pay me £14,” she said to Tony Jenks, the man in the booking office. “My ticket was for June 26th, and there was no ship from Jersey that night. My daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me £14.” Tony was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, madam,” he said politely. “I‟ll just check the Jersey timetable for June 26th.” The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Tony soon discovered. There was no ship sailing on June 26th. How had he made such a careless mistake? Not knowing what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sunburned (晒黑的),” he said to her. “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?” “Yes,”she answered shyly. “The beach was lovely. And I could swim too!” “That‟s fine,” said Tony. “My little girl can‟t swim a bit yet. Of course, she‟s only three……” “I‟m four,” the child said proudly. “I‟ll soon be four and a half.” Tony turned to the mother.“I remember your ticket, madam,” he said. “But you didn‟t get one for your daughter, did you?” “Er, well……” the woman looked at the child, “I mean —she hasn‟t started school yet. She‟s only four.” “A four-year-old child must have a ticket, madam. A child‟s return ticket to Jersey c osts — let me see —£15.50. So if you want the railway to pay £14 for your hotel, you will have to pay the railway £15.50 first. The law is the law, but since the fault was mine……” The woman stood up, took the child‟s hand and left the office.1.

The spires and the domes, the college walls and towers looked as when they were first built, hundreds of years ago.When they drove down, over the River Thames and into the city center, they found it was not so peaceful after all! The main streets were packed with traffic: cars, lorries, coaches full of tourists and the bicycles which the students use to get about. But as soon as they had managed to park the car and get away from the roaring traffic, they discovered a completely different world. Narrow cobbled streets which had hardly changed since the Middle Ages ran between the high college walls of gray or yellow stone. Inside the great double gates of each college they found quiet squares, or quadrangles, of grass, surrounded by the chapel, the library, the dining-hall and the rooms where the students and teachers live. Many colleges had the most beautiful gardens where one could sit and read, talk, work or dream.Most of the students, or undergraduates, wore informal clothes: sports coats, or pullovers , and slacks. But some of them were wearing their black gowns. George explained that they had to wear these when going to lectures or to their weekly meeting with their tutor, or teacher. Tom and Anne were very surprised to see a few young men dressed in formal black suits, with ties, gowns and scholars' caps. Anne asked whatever they were doing, wearing evening dress in the morning! George laughed and said that this was the official dress for taking examinations, many of which were held in June.In one college, they visited the dining-hall. It was enormous with a high roof geld up by great wooden beams with windows of stained glass as in a church, and long heavy tables and benches.1. They stopped the car on top of a hill because __ D_____.A. they were not very far from OxfordB. Oxford spread ort before themC. the college walls and towers looked peacefulD. they wanted to see the whole city of Oxford2.

What were not undergraduates wearing ? CA. Black gownsB. Black suits with tiesC. Pullovers and slacksD. Evening dresses4. Students wore black gowns when ___B____.A. they were going to the libraryB. they were going their teachersC. they were walking around on the campusD. they were going to parties5. The passage is about ____A___.A. a visit to OxfordB. a trip to LondonC. students in OxfordD. the campus life of OxfordPassage 3 CDBDAIn the United States there was an unusual tale telling of the daughter of a mechanic. One day while walking along the bank of a lake, the girl happened to see 20 eggs laid by a wild goose. After some time the girl realized the mother would not return to her eggs and she decided to take them home. There she carefully placed the eggs in the heat of a lamp. Several days later the eggs broke and the baby geese came into the world.Geese are known to take the first living thing they see as their mother. Thus, to these young geese, the girl was their mother.As they grew, the girl was able to lead her birds to run across the grass, but she could not teach them to fly. The girl became increasingly worried about this, both when awake and in her dreams. Later, she had an idea. She would pilot a plane to guide them in flight. She asked her father for a plane and he assembled small aircraft for her.Caring about her safety, the father decided to pilot the plane himself. However, the birds did not recognize or follow him, and instead slept in the grass.One day, the girl climbed into the plane, started it and soon left the ground. Seeing their mother take to the air, the birds eagerly flapped their wings and set out. She flew the plane freely in the sky, her young birds following.1.

The people who said it were thinking of an old saying: 'It is the early bird that catches the worm.' But since 1965 the Early Bird has had a different meaning. The modern Early Bird is a communications satellite in orbit round the earth.The use of wires to carry telephone communications and for other purposes of the same kind does not satisfy modern needs. We had to use radio. But the radio waves that we use for these purposes-microwaves-travel in straight lines. They do not follow the curve of the earth's surface.We can send them from one radio station to another-a relay station-where we amplify them and send them onto a third station. If there is no relay station within about 50 kilometers to receive the microwaves, they will continue into space. At a certain height, some of them are sent back to earth.A powerful station several hundred kilometers from their starting-point can receive them. But these are not good ways of sending the thousands of telephone, radio and television signals across the oceans.Scientists were thinking about communications satellites. They wanted to produce satellites big enough to separate a large number of different signals, amplify them and then relay them powerfully. And they wanted to put each of these satellites into an orbit would keep it over one point on the surface of the turning world. With four satellites of this kind-two over the Atlantic, one over the Pacific, and one over the Indian Ocean-we could send radio, television, and telephone signals from any one place to any other place on the surface of the earth.Early Bird was the first of these new communications satellites. It went into orbit in a 'fixed' position over the Atlantic Ocean on 2May 1965.Just over two years later, the second and third satellites went into positions over the Pacific Ocean. This made it possible for people in a large number of countries to see the same television pictures at the same time.On 25 June 1976, very large numbers of people in very many countries saw and heard the same television program 'live'. The program was called 'Our World'. It dealt with man's problems and difficulties. It also dealt with man's successes and his hopes for the future. The pictures and the sound were relayed by the Atlantic and Pacific satellites; they came from Africa, America, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Japan, and Europe. And they were received in all those parts of the world-received 'loud and clear', as the radio men say.1.

Besides people, there are millions of other living things. Every living thing is different from each other. Every living thing is a unique combination of characteristics.Why is each living thing unique? Where do its characteristics come from? Do people receive characteristics from their mothers and fathers? How? The work of Gregor Mendel was especially important to help us to answer these questions.Mendel studied plants, especially pea plants. In some way they were all the same. For example, they all had flowers. But some had red flowers, and others had white flowers. Some were tall, others were short. Mendel was especially interested in the differences. He wondered why each plant was of certain color, shape, size. He experimented with thousands of pea plants, with a careful record. And he discovered some interesting things. He mated different pea plants. First, he mated a red flower plant with a white flower plant. All of the offspring plants had red flowers. Mendel was curious about what happened to the white. Then he mated two of the offspring plants. Every time he did this, they produced three red plants and one white plant. There was the white again. So Mendel knew that even red plants somehow passed on whiteness. Mendel decided that pea plants carried factors, and the parents passed these factors onto their offspring.Today we call these factors genes. Genes are tiny pieces of matter. They carry information from parents to offspring. Now we know that every person is unique and one reason for this is that every person is a unique combination of genes.1. In the first paragraph, the author mainly tells us that_______C______.A. no other person is exactly like youB. the total population of the world is 6.5 billionC. every living thing is uniqueD. different people have different characters2. The work of Gregor Mendel was especially important because_______D______.A. he had first set great value on pea plantsB. he was the first person to study pea plantsC. he had done a lot of experiments with thousands of pea plantsD. he had first discovered what we call genes today3. Gregor Mendel made a special study of plant because________C________.A. few biologists were interested in studying pea plants at that timeB. he liked pea plant flowersC. he wanted to find out why pea plants differed in shape, color and sizeD. pea plants were all the same in some ways4. By experiments Gregor Mendel proved___________B______.A. pea plants of different colors could not mateB. pea plants possessed factors which could be passed onto the youngC. only redness could be passed onto the offspring if a red pea plant mated with a white oneD. pea plants had only two colors — red and white5. Which of the following statements is true?_______A____.A. Every person is unique because he is a unique combination of genesB. Genes only exist in plants, not in animalsC. Although there are a large number of different people in the world, there are some who lookexactly alikeD. Some biologists after Gregor Mendel discovered that genes can not determine the color ofone‟s eyesPassage 6 ABDCBThe computer has changed the way we work, learn, communicate, and play. In fact, every kind of organization throughout the world conducts business with computers. Students, teachers, and research scientists use the computer as a learning tool. Millions of individuals and organizations communicate with one another over a network of computers called the Internet. Computer games entertain people of all ages.Almost all computers are electronic digital computers. They are electronic in their use of electric current to carry information. They are digital in that they process information as units of electric charge representing numbers. The word digital means having to do with numbers. To enable a computer to process information that is not numerical——such as words, pictures, or sounds——the computer or some other device must first digitize that information. A device digitizes information by translating it into charges that represent numbers. After the computer processes the digitized information by working with the charges, the computer or a device connected to the computer translates its results back into their original form.Thus an artist might use a machine called a scanner to digitize a photograph. The artist would next process the resulting electric charges in a computer to change the photograph, perhaps to add a border. The artist would then use a printer connected to the computer to produce a copy of the altered photo.Digital computers are one of two general kinds of computers. The other kind is calculating devices called analog computers. An analog computer represents amounts with physical quantities, such as distances along a scale, rather than with numbers.1. The main topic of this passage is ____A___.A.digital computersB.the future of computersputer scienceputers and teachers2. The word “digitize” in Paragraph 2 means __B____.A.controlB.convert data into numbersC.make use ofD.manipulate3. Which of the following is the necessity of a computer? DA.Scanner.B..Printer.C.Photo.D.Charge.4. Which of the following statements is NOT true? Cputers enable artists to produce a copy of photograph.B.Teachers use computers in their work.C.All the computers are electronic digital.puters have a close relationship with most people.5. The following part of the article will possibly deal with ____B__.A.digital computersB.analog computersC.electronic scienceD.mathematicsPassage 7 ABDBCPeople often say that the Englishman‟s home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them personal, and change them in any way they like. Most houses have a garden, even if it is a small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of a person. In a crowded city a person knows that he or she has a private space which is only for himself or herself and for invited friends.People usually like to mark their space. If you are on the beach you may have spread your towels around you; in the rain you may have put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you; in a library you may spread your books around you. Once I was traveling on a train to London. I was on a section for four people and there was a table between us. The man opposite to me had his briefcase on the table. There was no space on my side of the table at all. I was unhappy. I thought he thought that he owned the whole table. I had been reading a book about nonverbal(非语言的) communication so I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his case! When I did this he suddenly became angry and his eyes nearly popped out(突出) of his head. I had taken up his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table.1. What does the first sentence in Paragraph 1 mean? AA. The home matters greatly to Englishmen.B. The castle is more important than the home.C. The home is more important than the castle.D. Englishmen usually live in homes instead of castle.2. Which of the following is NOT the reason for most British to live in homes? BA. They can make changes in houses in which they live.B. They love houses more than gardens.C. They can own private space like the house and the garden.D. They can keep the private space to themselves and friends.3. According to Paragraph 2, if you spread your books around you in a library, it means: DA. you want to spread your towels around you furtherB. you want to put your coat on the tableC. you can find no space for your books on the seatD. you want to tell others the space belongs to you4. How did the man opposite to the writer show he owned the whole table? BA. He sat in a section for four people.B. He placed his briefcase on the table.C. He was traveling on a train to London.D. He was reading a book.5. The writer tried to get back his space by ___C___.A. moving the case off the tableB. taking all his papers outC. taking up the space of the man oppositeD. showing the books concerned to the manPassage 8 BDACBThe weekends are a time for families in Britain. Often the parents are not at work. Having worked a five-day week from Monday to Friday, Saturdays are a busy time for shops with many families going shopping.Sundays used to be a very special day of the week in Britain. It was the one day of the week for “worship and rest”. The s hops were closed and most people were at home or at church. Popular leisure activities on Sunday used to be going to church and doing odd jobs around the home such as gardening and DIY.Until a few years ago shops were not permitted to open on a Sunday. Sundays today are becoming like any other day other week with shops open. Some families will now spend their time shopping rather than going to church or they will combine the two activities.Britain is becoming a far less Christian country with fewer people regularly attending Church. Many Christians believe that Sunday should be kept special, as a time given to worshipping God. They think it is important for Christians to meet together, listen to readings from the Bible and celebrate Holy Communion. Others believe that it is important that families have time to be together. (The shopping hours on a Sunday are less than on any other day of the week.)1. The following activities are popular on Sunday in Britain except ___B_____.A. gardeningB. going to the zooC. shoppingD. DIY2. In the second paragraph, the phrase …worship and rest‟ refers to____D____.A. going to the churchB. doing housework at homeC. having a rest at homeD. Both A, B and C3. Which of the following is TRUE according the passage? AA. English people usually work five days a week.B. In Britain, shopping is regarded as the most important activity in the weekend.C. Nowadays, more and more people prefer to go to church on Sundays.D. Most people think the shopping hours on Sunday should be longer.4. Britain is becoming less Christian probably because _______C_________.A. Many people refused to go to the church。
