Dogs chosen for such training must show good disposition, intelligence, physical fitness and sense of responsibility.At the age of about fourteen months, a guide dog begins an intensive course that lasts from three to five months. It becomes accustomed to the leather harness and stiff leather handle it will wear when guiding its blind owner. The dog learns to watch the traffic and to cross the street safely. It also learns to obey such commands as "forward", "left", "right" and "sit" and to disobey any command that might lead its owner into danger.The most important part of the training course is a four-week program in which the guide dog and its future owner learn to work together. However, many blind people are unsuited by personality to work with dogs. Only a tenth of the blind find a guide dog useful.6.A guide dog is a dog trained to help the blind.A.TB.F答案：A7.A guide dog begins its training course at the age of fourteen months.A.TB.F答案：A8.Learning not to guide its owner in the street is included in the training course.A.TB.F答案：B9.The most important part of the training course is to teach the dog how to cooperate with its future owner.A.TB.F答案：A10.Guide dogs are not popular because it's hard to train a guide dog.A.TB.F答案：BA characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made man - the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher socialposition and commands greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some sort.This attitude toward manual (体力的) labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously (豪华地) furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward; furthermore, the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education.11.From Para. 1, we know that in America _________.A.people tend to have a high opinion of the self-made manB.people can always rise to the top through their won effortsC.college professors win great respect from common workersD.people feel painful to mention their fathers as labors答案：A12.According to the passage, the hostess cooks dinner herself mainly because _________.A.servants in America are hard to get.B.she takes pride in what she can do herselfC.she can hardly afford servantsD.it is easy to prepare a meal with canned food答案：B13.The underlined expression “wait on table” in Para. 2 means “_________”.A.work in a furniture shopB.keep accounts for a barC.wait to lay the tableD.serve customers in a restaurant答案：D14.The author’s attitude towards manual labor is _______.A.positiveB.negativeC.humorousD.critical答案：A15.Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?A.A Respectable Self-made FamilyB.American Attitude toward Manual LaborC.Characteristics of American CultureD.The Development of Manual Labor答案：B三、词汇与语法16.This boy is able to repeat from memory ______ 200 short poems.A.up toB.up tillC.as toD.as far答案：A17.It is because she is very devoted to her patients ________ she is loved by them.A.thatB.whichC.whatD.who答案：A18.Would you let _____ to the park with my classmate, Mum?A.me goB.me goingC.I goD.I going答案：A19.Once environmental damage ______, it takes many years for the system to recover.A.is to doB.doesC.had doneD.is done答案：D20.It’s bad ________ for you to smoke in the public places where smoking is not allowed.A.behaviorB.actionC.mannerD.movement答案：A四、完型填空Dick was a sailor on a big ship.
