One of the special features of English people is self-discipline (自律). Generally, English people are polite and always want to please others. On the other hand, they don‟t like to show their emotions, even in dangerous situations. Imagine the scene! Some English people are caught in a violent storm in the forest. Anybody else would be anxious to run away. The English would just try to hide their emotions. Not a sign of fear would be seen on their faces.
We often hear of the English "reserve"(矜持). On a long railway journey, with four Englishmen sitting together, often there won‟t be a single word spoken during the whole journey. The English think it is a bad manner to ask personal questions. That wouldn‟t be the case in America. In a short ride in New York, a taxi driver will tell you about himself, his wife and his family, and probably the towns of England he has visited, too.
The English value privacy (隐私) very much. An Englishman‟s house usually has a small garden with a fence all around to separate it from the neigh bors‟. An Englishman‟s house is his castle.
Finally, we have to refer to the most special feature of the Scottish (苏格兰的) people —the Scottish dress. Scotland is probably best known to the world for its traditional costume —the kilt. This short, skirt-like piece of clothing is worn by men.
The kilt is made of a special type of colorful cloth called tartan, which is very special in Scotland. 24．When the English are in a dangerous situation they usually _______.
A. laugh at other people
B. behave very bravely
C. hide their emotions
D. run away immediately
25．In the second paragraph the author mentions a taxi driver in New York to ________.
A. explain what a personal question is
B. show the bad manners of Americans
C. show that English people are not very polite
D. show the reserve of the English
26．What do we know about the kilt in the last paragraph?
A. It‟s long and just like a skirt.
B. It‟s worn by both men and women.
C. It‟s made of a special type of cloth in Scotland.
D. It‟s a traditional costume all over Great Britain.
27．What can we learn about the English from the passage?
A. They are not very confident.
B.A house with a fence all around makes them feel safe.
C.They usually don‟t respect others‟ privacy.
D. They prefer a house with a garden to a flat.
C
Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group
Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. Book Crossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.
Bruce Pederson, the managing director of Book Crossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. Book Crossing combines both.”
Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.
People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the Book Crossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Pederson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.
BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.
28．Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?
A. To explain what they are.
B. To introduce BookCrossing.
C. To stress the importance of reading.
D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.
29．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The book.
B. An adventure.
C.A public place.
D. The identification number.
30．What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?
A. Meet other readers to discuss it.
B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.
C. Pass it on to another reader.
D. Mail it back to its owner.
31 What is the best title for the text?
A. Online Reading: A Virtual Tour
B. Electronic Books: A new Trend
C. A Book Group Brings Tradition Back
D. A Website Links People through Books
D
Can dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe for success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along smoothly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog.
However, it wasn‟t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals are just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.
In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other‟s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk …Dog‟, and dogs can learn how to talk …Cat‟.
What‟s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn to read each other‟s body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was previously suspected. Once familiar with each other‟s p resence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.
The significance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets—to people who don‟t get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.
32. Some cats and dogs may fight when ________.
A. they misunderstood each other's signals
B. they look away from each other
C. they are cold to each other
D. they are introduced at an early age
33. What is found surprising about cats and dogs?
A. They eat and sleep each other.
B. They learn to speak each other's language.
C. They observe each other's behaviors.
D. They know something from each other's voices.
34. It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs ________.
A. have common interests
B. have a common body language
C. are less different than was thought
D. are less intelligent than was expected
35. What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?
A. We should live in peace with animals.
B. We should know more about animals.
C. We should learn to live in harmony.
D. We should learn more body languages.

keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home”让书蒙上尘土是一种很自私的行为，网站的目的正是鼓励人们与别人分享图书，所以拿到书的人最可能继续把书传递下去。

考点：本文是一篇记叙文
点评：本文是一篇记叙文，记叙文要抓住人物、时间、情节。

首先要通读全文，知道全文的主要意思，答题时，可以根据上下文联系，主要考查动词辨析、形容词辨析、固定句型、固定词组等。

对于一时没有太大的把握的题可以放到最后再来完成，因为有时答案可以从下文内容体现出来。

答完后再通读一篇文章，看看所选选项能不能是语句通顺，语意连贯。

答案：
本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了网购和网上销售。

先行词为a person，引导词在定语从句中作主语，故用who或that。

书面表达
A possible version:
In this busy, modern world, if we want to complete our work more efficiently, we must all learn to cooperate with others, which save us a lot of time and energy.
We’ll be lucky enough to find someone we like to cooperate with due to the fact that we can share our joy and sadness with him. However, it can be difficult to cooperate with someone we dislike. In this case, we’ll have to learn to put up with some of his shortcomings and try to discover his advantages.
In my opinion, to be a good partner, we should try to listen to others’opinions, never force our ideas on others and if he makes mistakes, try to point them out in a polite way.
Thank you for your listening!

M: Mom, this road is so strange! It is different from the other roads.
W: Oh, it was built for the blind. They can feel and find their way to any place they want.
M: Is that so? Oh, great. Now they don‟t need to get extremely expensive seeing-eye dogs(导盲犬).
W: Yeah, seeing-eye dogs are expensive but they can look after their masters without any problems.
M: But how do blind people without seeing-eye dogs have normal lives?
W: They have much less trouble in public places now thanks to good social services. You know, we have a lot of public facilities designed especially to assist the blind, such as those in
elevators and on the subway.
M: Oh, yeah, I also hear a sound when I cross the street. Is that for the blind, too?
W: If there wasn‟t a sound to remind blind people to be careful, they would be unable to cross safely.。
