2. A desert is a very dry land where there is hardly any rain． In the day, it can be so hot that you could fry （煎） an egg on the ground． But during the night it is sometimes so cold that water would turn into ice．
Many desserts are covered in sand． But some have mountains, rocks, or lakes that have dried up in the heat． The Great American Dessert has cliffs （悬崖） that have been made into amazing and beautiful shapes by the wind． The Sahara Desert in Africa is mostly sand． The Australian Desert has red sand．
Sometimes it does not rain for a whole year in the desert． But there is water deep under the ground and some plants have roots that go very deep to find it． Other plants have roots that spread out a long way so they can suck up （吸收） the rain as soon as it falls．
One desert plant is the cactus （仙人掌）, which has long roots． The cactus stores water inside its hard skin． This skin protects it from heat and cold．
Camels （骆驼） are a bit like cactus plants! They store water too﹣﹣﹣inside their bodies． They have special fur （毛皮） which protects them from the sun during the day and keeps them warm at night． Some other animals live in deserts, too． They have to be very good at seeing and hearing because most of them only come out at night． This is why many desert animals have big eyes or ears．
Some people live in the desert but they always make their homes near an oasis． An oasis is where water comes from an underground river． Near an oasis, people can grow lots of plants and keep animals．
Life is hard in the desert, for people, animals and plants． But desert people like to live there．
（1）A desert is very dry because________．
A it is sandy．
B the wind is strong．
C there is so little rain．
D the sunlight is weak．
（2）Some desert animals have big eyes and ears because________．
A they store water in them．
B it is very cold at night．
C the sunlight is too strong in the day．
D they need to see and hear well at night．
（3）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？________
A Camels have special fur to store water．
B There is no water deep under the ground．
C People in the desert usually fry eggs on the ground．
D Desert people
like to live in the desert though life is hard．
3. Everyone has got two personalities ﹣﹣﹣ the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real． You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but when you are asleep, your sleeping position shows
the real you． In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions． The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep．
If you go to sleep on your back, you are a very open person． You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas． You don't like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings． You are quite shy and you aren't very confident．
If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets． You worry a lot and you're always easily becoming sad． You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the way it is． You usually live for today not for tomorrow．
If you sleep on curled up （蜷缩）, you are probably a very nervous person． You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very
________． You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people． You like to be on your own． If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well﹣balanced （平衡的）personality． You know your strengths and weaknesses． You're usually careful． You have a confident personality． You sometimes feel worried, but you don't often get unhappy． You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry．
（1）When does the sleeping position best show your secret personality？________
A In the daytime．
B At the beginning of sleep．
C At night．
D During the deep sleep．
（2）Tina hardly tells her secrets to her friends． She probably goes to sleep________．
A on curled up．
B on her stomach．
C on her back．
D on her side．
（3）What does the word " ________" mean in the passage？________
A 易怒的．
B 攻击性的．
C 外向的．
D 有戒心的．
（4）What does the passage tell us？________
A Sleeping on your side is the best way of sleeping．
B Changing positions will cause sleeping problems．
C Sleeping positions show people's secret
personalities． D Enough sleep makes people look better and healthier．
4. America is a mobile society． Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change． Neither side feels hurt by this． Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while ﹣﹣﹣ then no more． If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship． This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us develop more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending （延伸）
sometimes deeply into both families．
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and
their home life． They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality （好客） easily．
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don't show their politeness to us if
it requires a great deal of time． This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may ________． Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend． We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends． The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine（日常工
作）． They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus． And they expect that we will phone them from there． Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real． We will find ourselves treated hospitably． For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters． So accept their hospitality at home!
（1）Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？________
A Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their
families． B Friendships between Americans usually last for all their
lives． C Americans always show their warmth even if they are very
busy． D Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break．
（2）From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend， we will probably be________．
A warmly welcomed at the airport．
B offered a ride to his home．
C treated hospitably at his home．
D treated to dinner in a restaurant．
（3）The underlined words "be generous with our time" in Paragraph 3 probably
mean________．
A willing to spend time．
B strict with time．
C careful with time．
D serious with time．
（4）A suitable title （标题） for this passage would probably be "________"．
A Friendships between Chinese．
B Friendships between
Americans． C Americans' hospitality． D Americans' and Chinese's views of friend．5. My aunt Edith， working as a secretary（秘书）， was a single （单身的）
mother． Doctors discovered that she got a very serious heart disease when she was 50 years old．
（1）_______ She began studying medical reports in the library and found an article in a magazine about a well﹣known heart surgeon （外科医生）， Dr． Michael Debakey， in Houston， Texas． He had saved the life of someone with the same disease． The article
said Dr． Debakey's fees （诊疗费） were very high．（2）_______ But could Dr． Michael
tell her of someone whose fee she could pay？ So Aunt Edith wrote to him． She simply listed her reasons for wanting to be alive． She had three children， and they would be on their own in three or four more years．（3）_______ There wasn't a word of self﹣pity （自怜）﹣only warmth and humor and the joy of living． She mailed the letter， not really expecting an answer．
A few days later， my doorbell rang． Aunt Edith didn't wait to come in． She stood in the hall and read aloud： "Your beautiful letter moved me very deeply． If you can come to Houston， there will be no charge （收费） for either the hospital or the operation． Signed ﹣Michael Debakey．"
That was seven years ago．（4）_______ Her three children are happily married． For her age， she is one of the youngest， most alive people I know﹣all because of an open heart surgeon who knew how to honor his profession， and how to open his own heart．

Do you think music can affect （影响） people's behavior？ Scientists believe that music changes the way people behave． 3 ________ When it is played in a restaurant， people spend more money on food or drinks． But if it is changed to modern music， people spend less money． Because modern music may be too noisy． However， with no music， people spend even less money in restaurants．
Scientists also believe that loud fast music such as rap （说唱乐） makes people eat faster． In fact， people eat their food faster when the music gets faster． So， in many restaurants， fast music is played during their busy hours． It gets people to eat more quickly． Restaurants can make more money in this way．
