9.In Britain,people often invite friends for a meal,a party or just coffee.People who know each other very well-close friends,family or neighbors-visit each other's houses without an invitation(邀請),but usually an invitation is needed.When people invite someone to their homes,they often say,"Would you like to come for dinner on Saturday?"Answers are:"Thanks.We'd love to.What time?"or"I'm sorry.We'd love to but we have tickets for the concert."However,it is not polite to say"No,we wouldn't!"
Sometimes,the British use expressions(表達) that sound like invitations but which are not invitations.For example,"You must come over for a drink sometime."or"Let's go out for a meal one of these days."These are usually just polite ways of ending a talk.They are not real invitations because they don't mention(提及)a certain time or day.They just show that the person is trying to be friendly and the answers are,"Yes,that would be nice."or"OK,yes,thanks."
So next time you hear what sounds like an invitation,listen carefully.Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?

72.It is not polite to answer the real invitation by saying"D"
A.Sorry,we'd love to but we have tickets for the concert.
B.Thanks.We'd love to.What time?
C.Sure.We'd like to,thanks a lot.
D.No,we wouldn't!
73.If the British just want to end a talk politely,they may say,"B"
A.Would you like to come for dinner on Saturday?
B.Let's go out for a meal one of these days.
C.Let's go out for a meal on Saturday.
D.Shall we go for a drink this afternoon?
74.The British often use"C"to answer the invitations that are not real.
A.Yes,what time?
B.No,that's not a real invitation.
C.OK,yes,thanks.
D.No,you just want to be friendly.
75.Which is the best title (標題) for the passage?B
A.Britain                   
B.Invitation                    
C.A talk with friends                    
D.A letter to friends.

分析 本文講述了在英國,人們經(jīng)常邀請朋友、鄰居等來家里做客,但是也會出于禮貌發(fā)出一些假的邀請.考生可以通過文章了解有關"真假邀請"的事情,并能知道怎么樣去回應別人的邀請.

解答 72.D細節(jié)理解題.結合第一段的意思并根據(jù)文中第一段原句However,it is not polite to say"No,we wouldn't!"可以得知如果別人真的邀請你的話,回答No,we wouldn't!是很沒有禮貌的.故選D.
73.B細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段的原句They are not real invitations because they don't mention(提及)a certain time or day.可以得知,如果對方的邀請中沒有涉及到一個具體的時間或者日期就不是一個真正的邀請.故選B.
74.C細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段的原句They just show that the person is trying to be friendly and the answers are,"Yes,that would be nice."or"OK,yes,thanks."可以得知,如果對方不是發(fā)出一個真的邀請,英國人經(jīng)常使用C來回答.
75.B總結歸納題.全文都在講述在英國人們怎樣發(fā)出真的邀請及客氣的假的邀請,已經(jīng)如何答復.故選項B"邀請"最適合作為文章的題目.故選B.

點評 閱讀理解題,需要先讀題,理解清楚題目意思,接著帶著問題去文章中尋找、推斷答案.把握好細節(jié),注意推敲才能保證正確率.

You probably know how to ride a bike safely.Now learn to use a computer safely.
Your eyes
Too much light can injure your eyes,so never sit too close to a computer screen.Your eyes should be at least 50centimeters from the screen.Remember to look away from it sometimes.This gives your eyes rest.When you use a computer,the window should be on your left or your right.If it is behind you,the light will reflect on the screen.If the window is in front of you,the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes.
Your hands and wrists

Your back
Some people sit for many hours in front of a computer.If you sit in the wrong way,you can injure your back or your neck.So you should sit with your back straight.The top part of the screen should be parallel to the floor.If you are sitting for a long time,get up every 30minutes and exercise our arms,legs and neck.
Enjoy your computer,but use it safely.

20.World Sleep Day is March 21.Many experts have held a press conference (新聞發(fā)布會) in Beijing Hotel.Sleep is sometimes called"the cousin of death".But funnily enough,it is also one of the most important things we need to stay alive.People spend almost a third of their lives doing one things:sleeping.Sleep is like food for the brain.Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop.
People of different ages need different amounts (數(shù)量) of sleep.According to the National Sleep Foundation in the US,adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night.For students aged 10to 17,a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours per night.However,many students don't get enough sleep because of early school start times and too much homework.The China Youth and Children Research Center reported that about 80% of middle school students don't get enough sleep.Students without enough sleep may get poor grades.They can't pay attention in class or do well in sports.
To solve this problem,scientists advise that students should get less schoolwork and more time to sleep.There are some other ways to help people get enough sleep,such as taking a 20-minutes nap (小睡) during the day.Good sleep habits are also helpful.For example,try to go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day,even on weekends and during holidays.

51.How much sleep do adults need per night?A

B.8~10hours.
C.More than 10hours.
D.Less than 7hours.
52.Why don't many students get enough sleep?C
A.Because they always stay up late and get up late.
B.Because they naturally wake up early and they have too much housework.
C.Because they have too much homework and their school starts too early.
D.Because they go to bed and wake up at the same time.
53.What may happen if teens do not get enough sleep?B

C.They may have sleeping problems.
D.They have to get up very early to go to school.

17.Walking up to a stranger and starting a conversation matters much to making new friends.Making small talk can also lead to important business relationships,but it takes confidence,preparation and practice.Do it well,and people will feel relaxed with you and enjoy your company.So how can you learn the art of small talk?
Before you go to a business convention(正式會議)or other social situation,prepare three things that you can talk about.They can be something in the news,a good movie or a popular sports team's recent win.Then you have a topic to start with when you meet a new person.Also,don't wait for someone to approach  you.Look for someone who is standing alone,and start a conversation.Try a simple statement that you share something in common:"The food looks delicious."Or There sure are a lot  of people here."Then introduce yourself,"Hi,I'm Helen.(Hold out your hand for a handshake.) I just moved here,and I love this weather."
After you start a conversation,keep it going.Instead of asking questions that can be answered with a yes or no,ask open-ended questions like,"What do you think of the meeting?"It's time to move on once you've made a good impression.Be bright(smart and cheerful),be brief(don't talk too long),and be gone(there are more people to meet).
Use a goodbye line.To someone you enjoyed meeting at a gathering,say,"I really must be going,but it was really nice to meet you.Here's my card."If they hand you their card,be sure to show interest in it.Read it over briefly,and then put it in your pocket to show that it is valued.
Making small talk will open doors to meeting many interesting people.When you show an interest in others,they become interested in talking to you.Listening carefully and remembering a fascinating(迷人的)bit of information about each person will come in use if you meet again.

57.What is the passage mainly about?D
A.How to make new friends
B.What's good about small talk
C.The importance of business conversations
D.How to make small talk
58.According to the passage,being good at small talkD.
A.decides the success of any business relationship
B.is a key to making new friends
C.doesn't need any practice
D.a(chǎn)lways makes people feel at home with strangers
59.The underlined word"approach"in Paragraph 2probably means"A".
A.reach
B.introduce
C.like
D.teach
60.We learn from the passage thatA.
A.in a way small talk is a big challenge
B.most people like talking about food in small talk
C.personal cards are necessary in small talk
D.people can get much useful information in small talk.
