A
Our village carpenter(木匠), John Hill, came one day and made a dining table for my wife. He made it just the right size to fill the space between the two windows. When I got home that evening, John was drinking a cup of tea and writing out his bill for the job.
My wife said to me quietly, “It’s his ninth cup of tea today.”But she said in a loud voice, “It is a beautiful table, dear, isn’t it?”
“I will decide about that when I see the bill, ”I
read:
One dining table, 10 November, 1989.
Cost of wood: ＄17.00
Paint: ＄1.50
Work: 8 hours (＄1 an hour) ＄8.00
Total: ＄36.50
When I was looking at the bill, John said, “It’s been a fine day, hasn’t it? Quite sunny.”“Yes,”I said, “I’m glad it is only the 10th of November.”
“Me, too,”said John. “You wait. It’ll be a lot colder by the end of the month.”
“Yes, colder…. And more expensive! Dining tables will be ＄20 more expensive on November 30th, won’t they, John?”John looked hard at me for half a minute. Was there a little smile in his two blue eyes? I gave his bill back to him.
“If it isn’t too much trouble, John,”I said,
“Please add it up again and you can forget the date.”
I paid him ＄26.50and he was happy to get it.
21. Why did John talk about the weather when the writer was looking at the bill?_______
A. Because he didn’t want the writer to go through the bill carefully.
B. Because it was really a fine day.
C .Because he wanted the writer to check the bill carefully.
D. Because he wanted to tell the writer what the weather was like.
22. Why did the writer say that dining table would be＄20 more expensive on November 30th ?__________
A. Because it was difficult to make dining tables in cold weather.
B. Because paint would be more expensive.
C .Because the cost of wood would be more
expensive.
D .Because he thought John would certainly add to the cost of the dining table.
23.From the story we know that _____________
A. John made a mistake in the bill.
B. John tried to fool the writer in order to get more money for his work
C. John had written out the bill before the writer got home.
D. John still wanted to get ＄36.50 for his work in the end.
B
Parents and kids today dress alike, listen to the same music, and are friends. Is this a good thing? Sometimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and
talk about interests both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.
“I would never have said to my mom, ‘Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it?’”says Ballmer. “There was just a complete gap in taste.”
Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.
Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago. Now they are comfortable and common. And parent—child activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood. No wonder greeting cards
today carry the message, “To my mother, my best friend.”
But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “There's still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,”says Kerrie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College. “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.”
Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say.
“My parents were on the ‘before’side of that change, but today’s parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the ‘after’side,”explains Mr. Ballmer. “It’s not
something easily accomplished by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with,
but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”
24. The underlined word “gulf”in Para.3 most probably means _________.
A. Interest
B. distance
C. difference
D. separation.
25. Which of the following shows that the generation gap is disappearing?
A. Parents help their children develop interests in more activities.
B. Parents put more trust in their children’s abilities.
C. Parents and children talk more about sex and drugs.
D. Parents share more interests with their children.
26. By saying “today’s parents, the 40-year-olds,
were on the ‘after’side.”the author means that today’s parents _________.
A. follow the trend of the change.
B. can set a limit to the change.
C. fail to take the change seriously.
D. have little difficulty adjusting to the change.
27. The purpose of the passage is to _________.
A. describe the difficulties today’s parents have met with.
B. discuss the development of the parent-child relationship.
C. suggest the ways to handle the parent-child relationship.
D. compare today’s parent-child relationship with that in the past.

A year ago, a couple with three children moved into the apartment next door to me. I never heard any noise from the children, but the parents were always yelling at them.
We often met and I always spoke, but the only answer I ever got was a hello from a four-year old girl. One day when I returned they were just coming back to their apartment and the little girl was holding the door in
the hall open for the others. I remained in the car doing unnecessary things. The parents were telling her to hurry. I looked up and saw the little girl was still holding the door open, waiting for me.
So I hurried as much as I could and thanked her. She was smiling from ear to ear.
That afternoon I was at the K-Mart and I saw a white teddy bear. I thought of the little girl and said to myself, “I bet she would like it.”So I bought it for her.
The next day there was a knock on the door and it was the little girl and her father. She was so proud of her bear and thanked me. Then I noticed her mother and the other children were there in the hall, too.
Now when we meet in the hall we all speak in a friendly manner. Last night we had about 4 inches of snow. The temperature was below zero. When I opened the outside door, there was my car with all the snow
removed. The man next door was the only person I knew
in the whole building, so when I saw him the next day, I asked him if he was the nice person that removed the snow. He said NO. He wanted to, but his wife said she would do it.
Isn’t it amazing that the small kind act of a
4-year-old girl can change so many things for the better?
32. The author bought a teddy bear to _____

C. please his neighbor
D. refuse the help
33. Who removed the snow on the author’s car?

C. the girl’s mother
D. both the girl’s father and mother
34. The passage is _____________.
A. sympathetic（同情的）
B. humorous
C. warm
D. frightening
35. What does the author want to tell us through the passage?
A. little children should be polite to their neighbors.
B. More good things come from small acts.
C. Your neighbors are not as bad as you think.
D. Things can be changed as a consequence of removing snow.
