并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

AWe were on tour a few summers ago, driving through Chicago，when right outside of the city, we got pulled over(被迫停车). A middle-aged policeman came up to the car and was really being troublesome at first. He said, “ You were speeding. Where are you going in such a hurry?” Our guitarist, Tim, told him that we were on our way to Wisconsin to play a show. Then his way towards us totally changed. He asked, “Oh, so you boys are in a band（乐队）?” We told hi m that we were. He then asked all the usual band questions about the type of music we played and how long we had been at it.Suddenly, he stopped and said, “Tim, you want to get out of this ticket, don’t you?” Tim said, “Yes.” So the officer asked him to s tep out of the car. The rest of us, inside the car, didn’t know what to think as we watched the policeman talk to Tim. Then the policeman put Tim in the back of the police car and threw the car into reverse(倒车), stopping a few feet in back of our car.Now we suddenly felt frightened. We didn’t know if we were all going to prison. Suddenly, the policeman’s voice came over in a loudspeaker. He said, “Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time ever, we have Tim here singing on Route 90.” Later we knew, the policeman had told Tim that if he sang one of our songs over the loudspeaker in the police car, we would get out of the ticket. Seconds later, Tim started screaming into the receiver. The policeman enjoyed the performance, and sent us on our way without a ticket.21. Why did the policeman stop the boys?A. Because they drove too fast.B. Because they were late for their show.C. Because they didn’t see the policeman.D. Because they had to answer the band questions.22. The policeman became friendly to the boys when he knew they __________．A. were famous singersB. were driving for a showC. didn’t break the traffic rulesD. promised him a performance23. The underlined word “ticket” in paragraph 2 means “a piece of paper that __________.”A. allows you to enter a cinemaB. shows the price or size in a shopC. shows that you have paid to travel on a busD. orders you to pay money because you have done something wrongBBEIJING (News Agency) —Children in China today spend five times more money than their parents did when they were young.So what are all these children buying? The list is long: iPads, cell phones and jeans are typical items that children “have to” buy. And they will do anything to get them. They ask their parents over and over until they buy them.But parents also need to take the blame(责备) for spending so much money. They want their children to have the best things. They end up competing with other parents over whether their children have the latest products.So it’s no wonder chil dren find it hard to learn the importance of saving money rather than spending it all the time.And it's hard to save when companies use advertising (打广告)and clever slogans (口号) to encourage young people to buy their products. They even encourage children to keep asking their parents for something until they get it.Today, you don’t even need to have money in order to buy something. Banks give out credit cards and loans (贷款) all the time, so people are saving less and less. We are used to carrying lots of m oney around. And if you don’t have much, you can always borrow some.But this hasn’t always been the case. When our grandparents were young, there was very little money and everyone had to save hard for things they bought. They only bought things they needed, not things they just wanted.The older generation made the wise expres sion, “Money doesn’t grow on trees.” This is as true now as it was 50 years ago. They give money a great deal of value.And we all have a lot to learn from them.24．The text mainly tells us ________.A. differences between teenagers and their parentsB. what is popular among children at the momentC. how to spend money wiselyD. children’s high consumption(消费) of products25．Parents are to blame for children’s spending a lot of money because ________.A. they don’t give children positive guidance in consumptionB. they offer to buy the latest fashions for their childrenC. they always give children too much pocket moneyD. their consumption habits set a bad example to children26. The saying “Money doesn’t grow on trees.” in the last paragraph seems to tellus that ______.A. the older generation understood how to teach children to saveB. in the past, people attached more importance to saving moneyC. money has a great deal of value both in the past and at presentD. money is not easily earned and people should be careful when we spend itCOne of the most firmly established idea of manliness(男子汉) is that a real man doesn’t cry. Although he might cry a bit at a funeral, he is expected to quickly regain control. Crying openly is for girls. One study found that women cry significantly more than men do—five times as often, on average, and almost twice as long per period.Historically, however, men usually cried, and no one saw it as shameful. For example, in the Middle Ages, knights(骑士) cried only because they missed their girlfriends. In The Knight of the Cart, no less a hero than Lancelot cries at a brief separation from Guinevere. There’s no mention of the men in these stories trying to hold back or hide their tears. They cry in a crowded hall with their heads held high. Nor do other people make fun of this public crying; it’s universally regardedas an expression of feeling to show love.So where did all the male tears go? The most obvious possibility is that this is the result of changes as we moved from an agricultural(农业的) society to one that was urban（城市的）and industrial(工业的). In the Middle Ages, most people spent their lives among those they had known since birth. If men cried, they did so with people who would sympathize(同情). But from the 18th to 20th centuries, the population became increasingly urbanize, and people were living in the midst of thousands of strangers. Furthermore, changes in the economy required men to work together in factories and offices where expressions of feelings and even personal conversations were discouraged as time wasting.Yet human beings weren’t designed to hide their feelings, and there’s reason to believe that restraining tears can be harmful to yo ur well-being. Research from the 1980s has suggested a relationship between stress-related illnesses and not enough crying. Crying is also, somewhat related with happiness and wealth. Countries where people cry the most tend to be richer and more confident.27. In history, people considered it ________ for men to cry in public.A. manlyB. shamefulC. acceptableD. funny28. How does the author answer the question raised in paragraph 3?A. By offering descriptions.B. By asking questions.C. By comparing facts.D. By listing numbers.29. Who is likely to be healthier according to the passage?A. Tony who lives alone and never expresses himself.B. Peter who is outgoing but sometimes cries in public.C. Arthur who is under great stress but never shed a tear.D. Adam who sometimes cries but quickly regain control.30. What is the best title for the text?A. Men Don’t Cry. Why?B. Crying Is for WomenC. Who Cry More? Men or Women?D. Crying Makes a Weak Man。
