More importantly, you can do all those things that you canno t do now because you are too young. So, the question is, ‘At what age do you really become an adult?' Well, people become adults at different ages in different places.In Australia, the 18th birthday is a very important event for young Australians because it means they can do almost anything they want. They can vote, learn to drive a car, get married, join the army and even buy their own houses. However, even if they can do all these things, most Australians have to wait until their 21st birthday to really celebratebecoming an adult. This is the traditional adult age not only in Australia, but also in the USA and the UK. It is their first year of true independence (独立).Traditionally, people were given a key to their houses by their parents when they turned 21, meaning they could come and go as they like.Even though 21 is the traditional adult age in many English-speaking countries, the law nowadays is different in each country. In the UK, you can join the army at 16 and even get married at 16 if your parents allow. Young people in the UK can learn to drive a car at 17 as in Australia, although they have to wait until they are 18 to vote.In China, there is a different age for each of the stages of becoming an adult. You can vote and learn to drive a car when you are 18, but if you want to get married, women have to wait until they are 20 and men until they are 22. Chinese people celebrate important birthdays every 10 years--so when young people turn 20, they can expect a big party!No matter what age you are, becoming an adult is really about learning how to be independent and responsible（负责任的）. Once you are finally able to take care of yourself and make your own decisions, then you can say that you are truly all grown-ups.1．Which of the following are truly adults according to the passage?A．Independent grown-ups. B．Married people.C．People who can drive. D．People in the army.2．At what age do Australians really become adults?A．17. B．18. C．20. D．21.3．What is the writer’s opinion about the age people become a dults?A．The age people become adults depends on whether they can vote or not.B．The age people become adults depends on their own independence and responsibility.C．The age people become adults depends on if they are eighteen years old.D．The age people become adults depends on when they get the key to their houses.4．Why do people in Australia get the key to the houses when they really become adults?A．Because the law decides it.B．Because they can leave when they want.C．Because they can come home when they want.D．Because it is a tradition.5．What are adults free to do according to the passage?A．They are free to decide when to celebrate their own birthdays.B．They are free to look after themselves well.C．They are free to make their own decisions.D．They are free to make time move faster.B14、Dick lived in England. One day in January he said to his wife，“I'm going to fly to New York next week because I've got some work there.” “Where are you going to stay there？” his wife asked. “I don't know yet.” Dick answered. “Please send me your address from there in a telegram(电报)，”his wife said. “All right，” Dick answered.He flew to New York on January 31st and found a nice hotel in the center of the city.

A Swiss (瑞士人)described a pencil in a book in 1565. He said it was a piece of wood with lead（铅）inside it . Pencils weren’t popular, and people continued to write with pens. In 1795,someone started making pencils from graphite(石墨) and they became very popular. Today, people make pencils in the same way. They make the graphite into the shape of a stick, and then they put it inside a piece of wood. One pencil can make a line as long as 55 kilometers. When people first wrote with pens , they had to put the penpoint into ink after every few letters. Later someone invented a fountain pen(自来水笔) and this kind of pen could hold inkinside. A fountain pen can write several pages before you have to fill it again.Two brothers, Ladislao and Georg Biro, invented the ballpoint pen(圆珠笔)that we use today. They left their country Hungary and started producing ballpoint pens in England in 1943 during World War II. Later, a French company called Bic bought the Biro’s company. Someone calls ballpoint pens bics. Australians call them biros. Whatever we call them, we use them every day.1．（小题1）When did the pencil become popular according to the passage?A．In 1565.

It’s his thing,and I appreciate it,but it makes me look bad because our SUV has seen much better days.That being said,I’m not a car guy any more.Still,when Stu looks over his baby,I’ve often been tempted to say,“Next time you’re doing your car,let me know,and I’ll bring mine over.”Well,recently,Stu was out front next to his Rover(路虎).He said,“Let’s do it now.”so I pulled my classic into his driveway,and we started going at it like it was the first car either of us ever owned.Stu got out the blower,and I followed him with a rag(抹布)and cleaning conditioning(保养)stuff that I’ve had in the garage.It took us a couple of hours,but the result was a great gift for my wife.Also,I was now a friend with my neighbor.We’ve always had a neighborly relationship.As we talked about cars,music,and boats,we bonded.I get him:He likes things that go fast,and I appreciate the rush because I once chased it myself.Finding things in common makes for good relationships,and from that,you can build a friendship.
