From 1607 to 1892， frontiers were pushed further west.The frontiersmen looked for a land of rich resources and a land of promise，opportunity and freedom.Actually they looked for a better life.So individualism(个人主义)， self －reliance， and equality of opportunity have perhaps been the values most closely associated with the frontier heritage(遗产) of America.In history， people from different countries in the world rushed to America three times.They brought their own culture to America and later on，different cultures were mixed together.Thus the unique American culture is formed，a common cultural life with commonly shared values.The fundamental American belief in individual freedom and the fight of individuals to practice their own religion is at the center of religious experience in the United States.The great diversity of ethnic backgrounds has produced religious pluralism； almost all of the religions of the world are now practiced in the United States.Nowadays， we can see the continual influence of the three elements in the current American society.American family is typically parents and their unmarried children.Middle－aged and elderly people generally do not live with their married children.The people in America have a very strong desire to start a new life in a new place.Quite a number of people change residences every year.The average American moves fourteen times in his lifetime.36．American culture is unique because of the following factors EXCEPT________.A．hard environment B．ethnic diversityC．plural religion D．advanced modernization37．We can learn from this article that________.A．the frontiersmen left important society values for American cultureB．the early immigrants brought about the unique American cultureC．people in the world once rushed to America because of its unique cultureD．the American family members don't get along well with each other 38．What's the author's attitude towards American culture？A．He is critical of it.B．He admires it very much.C．He just states the facts.D．He looks down upon it.39．The last paragraph is about________.A．the family structure in American societyB．the influence of the three elements in the current American society C．the new life style of American familyD．the reason why American people like to change residences40．What might be the most suitable title of this article？A．The Immigrants in AmericaB．Why American Culture Is UniqueC．The Influence of American CultureD．Plural Religion and American Culture课时作业(三十六)Ⅰ.1.B考察表语从句。

But if you plan to do that using your cell phone, you could have an unwelcome surprise—US cell phones don't work abroad. US companies use different forms of technology, not like most of the international community, including Europe.However, there is an easy, cost－effective solution to staying in touch while you're traveling. You can rent a phone that is guaranteed to work in the countries you're visiting. Roadpost offers a 30－day cell phone rental plan that includes free incoming calls, free voicemail and call waiting services.The service is convenient and simple. You can place your order online and your phone will be shipped to arrive on the date you want. If an unexpected business trip comes up, Roadpost can provide next－day delivery for most cities. In addition to the phone, Roadpost provides a spare battery, travel charger and a leather carrying case.When your phone is shipped from Roadpost, you receive an e－mail confirmation that contains your international cell phone number so you can leave it with family members and business partners; Roadpost even provides business cards preprinted with your international phone number.Those who don't want to be without e－mail while traveling can rent an international BlackBerry. It can be hard to stay in touch by e－mail when traveling. With an international BlackBerry, you can e－mail as much as you like, without worrying about an expensive bill. If you're traveling to very remote areas, you may want to consider renting a satellite phone: Because they receive their signals from satellites, and these phones work anywhere on the planet, including oceans and mountains. When you return, simply ship the phone or BlackBerry back to Roadpost using the return kit the company provides.16．According to the text, Roadpost probably is________.A．an organization that offers some free servicesB．a person who offers some advice to foreign touristsC．a company that rents cell phones to Americans going abroadD．a person who makes travel plans for Americans17．The first paragraph mainly tells us that ________.A．Americans need to change their cell phonesB．European form of technology is different from America'sC．US cell phones don't work abroadD．Americans who go abroad will meet an unwelcome surprise18．Which of the following will help you a lot in mountainous areas?A．BlackBerry. B．The return kit.C．E－mail. D．Satellite phones.19．According to the text, it can be inferred that________.A．an international BlackBerry is mainly used to send e－mailB．Roadpost can offer cell phones used in different areasC．you should select a bag to send your cell phoneD．Roadpost's service is inconvenient and complicated20．Which of the free services can you get from Roadpost?A．Voicemail.B．Sending e－mail.C．Shipping the phone back.D．Call waiting services.BAmerican culture is unique because it is formed and developed under certain conditions.The major factors contributing to the making of this nation and the forming of a new culture are the hard environment, ethnic diversity(多民族) and plural religion, which is quite different from other nations in the world.What is more, these elements are still influencing the American culture.The early immigrants who were English Puritans settled down in northeast part of America. From 1607 to 1892, frontiers were pushed further west.The frontiersmen looked for a land of rich resources and a land of promise, opportunity and freedom.Actually they looked for a better life.So individualism(个人主义), self－reliance, and equality of opportunity have perhaps been the values most closely associated with the frontier heritage(遗产) of America.In history, people from different countries in the world rushed to America three times.They brought their own culture to America and later on，different cultures were mixed together.Thus the unique American culture is formed，a common cultural life with commonly shared values.The fundamental American belief in individual freedom and the right of individuals to practice their own religion is at the center of religious experience in the United States.The great diversity of ethnic backgrounds has produced religious pluralism; almost all of the religions of the world are now practiced in the United States.Nowadays, we can see the continual influence of the three elements in the current American society.American family is typically parents and their unmarried children.Middle－aged and elderly people generally do not live with their married children.The people in America have a very strong desire to start a new life in a new place.Quite a number of people change residences every year.The average American moves fourteen times in his lifetime.21．American culture is unique because of the following factors EXCEPT________.A．hard environmentB．ethnic diversityC．plural religionD．advanced modernization22．We can learn from this article that________.A．the frontiersmen left important society values for American cultureB．the early immigrants brought about the unique American cultureC．people in the world once rushed to America because of its unique cultureD．the American family members don't get along well with each other23．What's the author's attitude towards American culture?A．He is critical of it.B．He admires it very much.C．He just states the facts.D．He looks down upon it.24．The last paragraph is about________.A．the family structure in American societyB．the influence of the three elements in the current American societyC．the new lifestyle of American familyD．the reason why American people like to change residences25．What might be the most suitable title of this article?A．The immigrants in AmericaB．Why American culture is unique?C．The influence of American cultureD．Plural religion and American culture答案课时作业(三十六)Ⅰ.这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。

课时作业8 ComputersⅠ.阅读理解(2015·湖北省重点中学联考)Banks view online banking as a powerful “valueadded〞 tool to attract and keep new customers while helping to eliminate costly paper handling or teller (出纳员) interactions in an increasingly competitive banking environment.Today, most large national banks, many local banks and credit unions offer some form of online banking, variously known as PC banking, home banking, electronic banking or Internet banking. Online banks are sometimes referred to as “bricktoclick〞 b anks, both to tell them from “bricktomortar〞 banks that haven't yet offered online banking, as well as from “virtual〞 (虚拟) banks that have no physical branches or tellers whatsoever.The challenge for the banking industry has been to design this new service channel in such a way that its customers will readily learn to use and trust it. Most of the large banks can now offer fully safe, fully functional (功能的) online banking for free or for a small cost. As more banks succeed online and more customers use their sites, fully functional online banking will likely become as commonplace as automated teller machines (ATM)．Online banking has a lot of advantages. Unlike your corner bank, online banking sites never close; they're at hand 24 hours a day, seven days a week and they're a mouse click away. If you're out of state or even out of the country when a money problem appears, you can log on instantly to your online bank and take care of business. Online bank sites generally carry out and confirm deals at or quicker than ATM processing speeds. Many online banking sites now offer fashionable tools to help you manage all of your valuable items more effectively.1．The underlined word “eliminate〞 in the first paragraph probably means “________〞．A．keep B．removeC．raise D．improve2．What is the challenge for the online banking industry according to the text?A．To make online banking attractive.B．To open new services all over the world.C．To offer online banking for free.D．To take care of business 24 hours a day.3．From the text we can conclude that ________.A．“bricktoclick〞 banks are in fact another kind of physical banksB．the function of a “bricktoclick〞 bank is as common as that of an ATM C．a “bricktomortar〞bank is no better than a virtual oneD．customers can deal with their banking by a mouse click4．What would be the best title for this text?A．Banking of Various FormsB．Improvement of Banking IndustryC．Development of Online BankingD．Functions of the “BricktoClick〞Bank答案与解析本文介绍网上银行这一强大的增值工具，用它来吸引和维护新的客户。

from almost every other top 50 website.We have a small number of paid staff，just twentythree.Wikipedia content is free to use by anyone for any purpose.Our annual expenses are less than six million dollars.Wikipedia is r un by the nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation，which I founded in 2021.Wikipedia is driven by a global community of more than 150,000 volunteers—all devoted to sharing knowledge freely.Over almost eight years，these volunteers have contributed more than 11 million articles in 265 languages.More than 275 million people come to our website every month to access information，free

knowledge.That’s our commitment.Your donation helps us in several ways.Most importantly，you will help us cover the increasing cost of managing global traffic to one of the most popular websites on the Internet.Funds also help us improve the software that runs Wikipedia—making it easier to search，easier to read，and easier to write for.We are committed to increasing the free knowledge movement worldwide，by taking on new volunteers，and building strategic partnerships with institutions of culture and learning.Wikipedia is different.It’s the largest encyclopedia (百科全书(bǎikēquánshū)) in history，written by volunteers.Like a national park or a school，we don’t believe advertising should have a place in Wikipedia.We want to keep it free and strong，but we need the support of thousands of people like you.Thank you，Jimmy Wales 1．What do the second and third paragraphs mainly talk about?A．Why you should donate to Wikipedia.B．How much the workers are paid.C．How Wikipedia is run.D．How many

When you start talking about good and bad manners you immediately start meeting difficulties. Many people just cannot agree to1they mean. We asked a lady, who replied that she thought you could tell a well-mannered person2the way they occupied the space around them—for example, when such a person walksdown a street he or she is constantly aware of others. Such people never bump into other people. However, 3second person thought that this was4 a question of civilized behavior than good manners. Instead, this other person told us a story, which he said was quite well known, 5an American who had been invited to an Arab meal in one of the countries of the Middle East. The American6(tell)very much about the kind of food he might expect. 7he had known about Arab food, he might have behaved better. Immediately before him was a very flat piece of bread that looked, to him, very much like a napkin(餐巾). 8(pick)it up, he put it into his collar, so that it fell across his shirt. His Arab host, 9had been watching, said nothing, but10(immediate)copied the action of his guest. And that, said this second person, was a fine example of good manners.【文章大意】礼貌到底是什么呢? 不同的人有不同的观点。
