On top of that, make them believe you’ll fit in and be part of the team.

DA.DecisionB.RequirementC.QualityD.ChoiceBDoctors believe that second-hand smoke may cause lung cancer in people who do not smoke. Nonsmokers often breathe in the smoke from other people’s cigarettes. This is s econd-hand smoke. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (美国环保局) reports that about fifty-three thousand people die in the United States each year as a result of exposure ( 暴露) to second-hand smoke.It is harder for children to avoid second-hand smoke. In the United States, nine million children under the age of five live in homes with at least one smoker. Research shows that these childrenare sick more than children who live in homes where no one smokes. The damaging effects of second-hand smoke on children also continue as they grow up. The children of smokers are more than twice as likely to develop lung cancer when thay are adults as children of nonsmokers. The risk is even higher for children who live in homes where both parents smoke.People are becoming very aware of the danger of second-hand smoke. As a result, they have passed laws that prohibit people from smoking in many public places. Currently, 45 states in the United States have laws that restrict, or limit, smoking. The most well-known law doesn’t allow people to smoke on short native airline flights, i.e. flights within the country.C pared with nonsmokers’ children, the children whose parents both smoke are likely to .A.grow up more slowlyB.be sick under the age of fiveC.develop Lung cancer more oftenD.become smokers more easilyA 7.Why are there laws made against smoking in public places in the U.S.?A.Because people have realized the danger of second-hand smoke.B.Because more and more people don’t like smoki ng now.C.Because parents don’t want their children to become smokers.D.Because the government wants to limit the production of cigarettes.C 8.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.T he number of smokers’ children is twice greater than tha t ofnonsmokers’ children.B.People are now not allowed to smoke on airline flights in the U.S.C.Adults whose parents smoked when they were children get cancer morefrequently.D.Second-hand smoke is not as dangerous as first-hand smoke.D 9.From the passage we can conclude that .A.the main cause of lung cancer is second-hand smokeB.most people know nothing about the danger of second-hand smokeC.public places are dangerous for people to stayD.children suffer most from second-hand smokeC 10.This passage is mainly about .A.how people get cancerB.who can get cancer easilyC.what should be done with smoking in publicD.whether second-hand smoking can be harmfulCMany visitors to the United States find that the fast pace at which people move is very troubling. One’s first impression is likely to be thateveyone is in a rush. City people always se em to be hurrying to get where they are going. And they are very impatient if they are delayed even for a brief moment. At first this may seem unfriendly to you. But drivers will rush you; storekeepers will be in a hurry as they serve you; people will push past you as they walk along the street. You will miss smiles and brief conversations with people when you shop or dine in a resraurant. Do not think it is because Americans are in such a hhurry that they are unfriendly. Life is often much slower outside the big cities, which is true in other countries as well.Americans who live in cities such as New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles, often think that everyone is equally in a hurry to get things done. But when they discover that you are a stranger, most Americans become quite kindly and will take great care to help you.C 11.Visitors to the United States possibly feel that city people of thecountry are very .A.busyB.kindC.troublingD.patientC 12.In American big cities, people rarely .A.smile to each otherB.move at a fast paceC.chat with each other in a shopD.dine away from homeB 13.According to the writer, American people .A.unfriendly only when they are shoppingB.actually friendly to foreign visitorsC.indeed cold to foreign visitorsD.in no hurry when walking in the streetA 14.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Life pace is different inside and outside bid cities.B.Life pace is quite slow in other parts of the world.C.life pace is the same in different parts of the world.D.Life pace is similar in American cities, big os small.C 15.It seems that Americans are cold to you because they think .A.you are a foreignerB.you know their way of lifeC.you are as busy as they areD.you are a stranger thereDAs working women continue to receive better and better wages, housewives still work at home without receive paychecks. Should a woman who works at home, doing the housework and caring for children , be paid for her services? In a 1986 study at Cornell University, it was found that the value of the services of a housewife averaged $11,600 a year. This rate was based on a family composed of a husband, wife, and three young children. The $11,600 is what the husband would have to pay if he hired others to take over his wife’s household work. The researchers concluded that it would be fair for husband to pay wives according to government guidelines (方针) for least amounts of wages.Another plan for rewarding women who work at home has been suggested by Dr. Johnson, a former Secretary of Health and Human Service. He says that full-time housewives should be allowed to pay social security taxes(社会保障金), with their employers (that is, their husbands) offering part of the payment. He feels that the present system is unfair. He said, “if you work in a store you can qualify for Social Security, but i f you stay at home and raise a family, you can’t quali fy for it.”D 16.Now in the U.S. the women working outside home can get .A.the same pay as those doing houseworkB.as much as their husbandsC.an average payment of $11,600 a yearD.more and more moneyB 17.The researchers at Cornell University suggest that .A.husbands hire others to do their houseworkB.husbands pay their wives for their work at homeC.policies be worked out on women’s wagesD.women go out to work instead of working homeC 18.The expression “full-ti me housewives” in paragraph 2means .A.wives who can’t do any houseworkB.wives who don’t like to stay at homeC.wives staying at home doing houseworkD.wives working outside home sometimesC 19.Why do some people feel that husbands should pay their wives for theirhousework?A.Because husbands are employers.B.Because raising a family needs money.C.Because wives’ work at home has its value.D.Because wives can’t qualify for Social Security.B 20.Why does Dr.Johnson think that the present system is unfair?A.Husband are paying the social security taxes for their wives.B.Women working at home can’t get social securitgty.C.Bosses refuse to pay part of the taxes for female employees.D.Full-time housewives are required to pay social security taxes.EIn Spain in summer there are many villages with a lot of tourists. The tourists go to the villages with their families, where there are festivals. People living around the villages also go to these festivals. To begin the festivals they throw big fireworks and the mayor (市长) makes a speech. When he finishes, people applaud and parties begin. In the morning of the first day people orgnize chocolate parties and clowns(小丑) for the children.In the afternoon there is a festival for the grandparents with music, drinks and food. And at night a big party is held for everybody. At the party, people dance and sing. They feel very happy in the festivals and go to bed very late. Next morning they get up much later than usual; then they go to a place where there are poetry(诗歌) competitions, squares(纵横字谜), etc. Later the people go to a ceremony in the church to visit their dead family members. In the afternoon there is a fair and everybody goes to it to buy things or to go for a walk. At night a famous pop music group goes to the village and holds a concert and at 12 or 1 o’clock the group plays traditional songs. The third day is the last day, people are still very happy. To end the festivals they throw a lot of artificial fire.
