第二部分: 阅读理解（第一节10小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
第一节：阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。

A
When Facebook was entirely used by people under the age of 25, things were simple. But now an important social question has arisen — should you “friend” your child, or accept a parent as a “friend”?
Lindsay Stewart, 15, completely understands why you’d refuse a parent’s friend request. Her parents have agreed on not becoming Facebook friends. Lindsay says, “She said she was n’t going to ask to be friends. My brother and I were relieved（放心的）.
Though there may be nothing embarrassing or secrets being discussed, it’s not a place she wants her mother to have access to（使用，接近）. Lindsay explains, “My mum is my mum. I like her, but she’s not necessarily what I’d call my friend.”
Mum is Sandy Stewart, a 50-year-old Indiana-born mother of two now living in South London. Mrs. Stewart has strong opinions about what role a parent should play on the world’s biggest networking site — stay away from your children. “I wouldn’t dream of being friends. There’s no way,” Mrs. Stewart insists and suggests trying “friending” could seem like an invasion of privacy（侵犯隐私）.
Yet Tim Harness, 54, and his daughter Josie, 18, are “friends” on Facebook and perfectly happy. Josie left home in the summer for university in Plymouth, and Mr. Harness can see her online. “I have a little look at her photos now and again,” he explains. “She seems to be having a good time.”
Josie tells me it’s reassuring（令人安心的）to know that her father’s checking up on her occasionally. She has plenty of family friends and what they see on her Facebook doesn’t concern her. “The worst dad might see is a photo of me a bit drunk,” she says. “Is it an invasion of privacy? Not really. Everyone has Facebook these days. The only reason you wouldn’t want them is if you’ve got something to hide.”
36.After Lindsay’s parents promised not to “friend” their kids, she __________.
A. still looked worried
B. felt quite relaxed
C. thought it was a trick
D. made her privacy public
37.Which of the following best describes Lindsay’s parents?
A. Understanding.
B. Outgoing.
C. Warm-hearted.
D. Caring.
38.The writer mentioned the Stewart and the Harness family to show __________.
A. generation differences about social websites
B. Facebook is popular with people of all ages
C. different opinions about “friending a child” online
D. young people ignore to protect their privacies
39.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Social websites are not safe enough.
B. Parents should care more for their kids in real life.
C. It is only an excuse for kids to refuse their parents on Facebook.
D. Tim Harness checked on Josie’s Facebook with her permission.
40.Josie’s attitude toward parents friending kids on Facebook is __________.
A. positive（积极肯定的）
B. negative（消极否定的）
C. unknown
D. neutral（中立的）
B
Finally, I got a part-time job working at the local coffee shop. I had figured that the job would be easy. However, the real situation was not what I had expected. The customers were hard to please. There was always too much sugar, too little ice, or not enough skimmed milk. However, I kept at it.
One rainy day, Hank, one of my regular customers（常客）, came in looking sad and defeated. I asked
what the problem was and if we could help, but Hand wouldn’t tell me any details. He just said he felt like going to bed, pulling the sheets up over his head, and staying there for a few years. I knew exactly how he felt.
Before he left, I handed him a bag of his favorite type of doughnuts（甜甜圈）along with his iced coffee. He looked at me skeptically because he hadn’t ordered anything else except iced coffee.
“It’s on me,” I told him. “Have a nice day.”
He smiled and thanked me before turning around and heading back out into the rain.
The next day was a horrible one. The rain kept pouring down and I spent my afternoon hanging out the window, handing people their orders. What’s worse, no one felt like tipping（付小费）that day.
However, around 7:00 pm, Hank drove up to the window. Instead of ordering anything, he handed me a single pink rose and a little note. He said that few people take the time to care about others nowadays and he was glad there were still people like me in the world. I was speechless and very touched; I hadn’t thought that I had done anything unbelievable.
The note read:
Christine,
Thanks for being so sweet, kind and thoughtful yesterday. I was sincerely touched by you. It is so nice to meet someone that’s nice, warm, sensitive and unselfish. Please don’t change your ways because I truly believe that you will excel. Have a great day!
Hank Later, I did come across more complaining customers. But anytime I felt sad or just sick of coffee, I thought of Hank and his kindness. Then I would smile, hold my head up high, clear my throat and ask politely, “How can I help you?”
41.How did the author feel after he began to work at the coffee shop?
A. Excited.
B. Puzzled.
C. Disappointed.
D. Satisfied.
42.What happened to the regular customer of the author?
A. He was very sick and had to stay in bed for some days.
B. He was not satisfied with the coffee served to him.
C. He was very eager to stay at home for a long time.
D. He was not feeling himself for some reasons.
43.The underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to __________.
A. hopefully
B. seriously
C. patiently
D. meaningfully
44.It was Hank who helped the author realize the importance of __________.
A. patience in one’s work
B. being friendly to regular customers
C. taking time to care about others
D. never giving up one’s own job
45.What is the best title of the passage?

C. My Part-time Job
D. A Horrible Raining Day
