My interest in Chinese food started many years ago, when I had my first job. I was a young reporter for the Daily Journal in San Francisco. Our office wasn’t far from Chinatown. I usually managed to arrange my time so that I could go there at least two or three times a week for a good meal.
The first time I ever ate Chinese food I loved it. And since then, it just tastes better and better to me. The first thing I noticed was the fresh tastes of the meat and vegetable. When I learned more about the food, I began to understand why it has this special feature.
About 5000 years ago, China lost much of its wood because of over population and poor management of its forest. This loss was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out to be very good for the food. Wood became very expensive and hard to get, so the Chinese had to learn how to use it better.
In order to use less wood in cooking, they started to cut their meat and vegetable into small pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That way, the food cooked faster and they saved their fuel. The food prepared in the manner kept its fresh flavor(風(fēng)味)--- and its this flavor that attracts people to the art of Chinese cooking.
I often wonder if the Chinese appreciated their solution to that ancient energy problem as much as I do now --- whenever I eat Chinese food.
小題1:This passage is mainly about ___________.
A．why Chinese food tastes fresh
B．what Chinese food tastes like
C．how Chinese food is cooked
D．what makes Chinese food special
小題2:The author got to know Chinese food _______________.
A．when he worked as a reporter in China
B．from a news story in the Daily Journal
C．a(chǎn)fter he got a taste of it in the Chinatown
D．before he got his first job in San Francisco
小題3:The author thought the Chinese cut meat and vegetable into small pieces in order to _____________.
A．keeping its fresh flavor
B．saving their hard –to-get wood
C．producing a different kind of food
D．a(chǎn)ttracting westerners to their food
小題4:The word “ fuel” in the 4th paragraph most probably means ____________.
A．fresh flavorB．meat and vegetable
C．hot oilD．firewood
小題5:According to the passage, the special freshness of Chinese food is the result of _______________.
A．the wood used to make the cooking fire
B．the fast speed at which it is cooked
C．the high quality of Chinese meat and vegetable
D．the well –developed art of Chinese cooking

In Britain ,people often invite friends for a meal , a party or just coffee. People who know each other very well may visit each other’s houses without  an invitation(邀請),but if we invite new friends, 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 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 an exact 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.”

What do you think are the most important inventions of the past 2,000 years? The TV? The printing? The telephone? Or the computer? A report shows that these are not the only important inventions. Here are four other important ones.
Paper is one of the most important inventions. You can’t have printing without paper. In 105 AD, Cai Lun invented paper in China. Long before the printing and Internet, Cai Lun’s invention allowed us to write down information, stories and history.
One of the simplest (最簡單) inventions to save life is the toilet. Before toilets, waste ran into the rivers from people’s houses. Illnesses were common (普通的) in big cities, and it was often difficult to find clean drinking water.
Animal food is another invention. Before the invention, most animals were killed every autumn because there was not enough food for them in the winter. After hay (干草) became a kind of common animal food, animals could live through the long winter.
Reading glasses is the fourth invention. People start getting far-sighted (遠(yuǎn)視) from the age of 45. Glasses mean that anyone can read, write and do “close work” after that age. Without glasses, the world would be difficult for the people above 45.
小題1:Cai Lun’s invention of paper makes it possible to ______.
A．have printing B．feed animals
C．drink clean waterD．do “close work”
小題2:The invention of the toilet can stop people from ______.
A．saving water B．getting ill
C．living in big citiesD．finding clean water
小題3:Why couldn’t the animals live through the winter?
A．It was very cold in winter. B．They didn’t have enough food to eat.
C．They had no drinking water.D．They died of illness.
小題4:From the last paragraph we learn that ______.
A．a(chǎn)ll people need reading glasses
B．a(chǎn)nyone must do “close work” after 45
C．reading glasses are useful
D．life is more difficult for the people under 45

A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, red apple on the tree near a house. The boy didn’t like eating __35__ very much. He preferred a piece of chocolate if he was given the choice, but this time, seeing the nice apple, the boy wanted it very much. The more he looked at the apple, the __36__ he felt and the more he wanted it.
He stood on tiptoe (腳尖), stretching (伸展) as high as he could, but he was still unable to touch it. He began to __37__ up and down, as high as he could, at the top of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple. Still it remained out of __38__.

He had tried everything he could think to do. Without seeing any other choices, he gave up and started to walk away.

However, the boy of our story was a __44__ one, even if he couldn’t always get what he wanted. He started to say to himself, “This isn’t helpful. I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling unhappy as well. There’s __45__ more I can do to get the apple. That is unchangeable. But we should try to __46__ our feelings.

For many in the United States, Arab-Americans are an invisible part of the population. Though Arab-Americans as a community have made great contributions to American society in fields from literature to politics to medicine, many Americans know very little about Americans of Arab backgrounds.
Arab history in the United States goes back to the late 1800’s when large numbers of Arab immigrants first began making their journey to a land known simply as “Amreeka”.
Historians generally describe Arab immigration to America in two waves. The first wave took place between 1860 and 1924.The first wave consisted of Lebanese and Syrian, and some Egyptian immigrants. These new immigrants, who were mostly Christian, came to America in search of better opportunities. Even the doomed Titanic, which set sail for America in 1912,had close to a hundred Arab passengers aboard. The majority of Arab-Americans today are descendents of the first wave of immigrants; they are the third or more generation Americans.
The second wave of immigrants followed after World War Ⅱ,caused by political unrest in the Middle East. This second wave of immigrants consists of mainly Arab Muslims（穆斯林）and continues to this day.
Arab-Americans make up 3 million of the population in the United States, according to demographers. And quite different from popular belief, 64 percent of them are American-born. Eighty-two percent of Arab-Americans are US citizens.
Arab-Americans are beyond the national average in both education and income. Education is important among Arab-Americans; 82 percent have high school diplomas, 36 percent have bachelor’s degrees or higher, and 15 percent have graduate degrees. The-median（中位數(shù)的）average income among Arab-Americans is $39,580, which is higher than the US average.
小題1:The first wave of immigrants took place because__________.
A．a(chǎn)ll Arabs were Christian at that time
B．Arabs wanted to gain higher income
C．the Second World War broke out
D．Arabs wanted to hunt for a better development
小題2:The writer of this passage mentioned Titanic__________.
A．to tell us that taking ship at that time was dangerous
B．because Titanic became a well-known disaster
C．to show us there were many Arabs flocking into America at that time
D．to inform us that Arabs are brave enough
小題3:From the last paragraph we can infer that__________.
A．Arab-Americans are much more clever than native Americans
B．the higher education you receive, the higher income you will get in America
C．Arab-Americans are hard-working people
D．The-median average income among Americans is $39,580
小題4:Which of the following sentences is TRUE？
A．Arab-Americans have made great contributions to American society only in literature.
B．Arab history in the United States is to the early 1800’s.
C．The first Arab immigration to America took place between 1860 and 1924.
D．Few of Arab-Americans are US citizens.
小題5: What would be the best title for the text?
A．Arabs in America.
B．The Two Arab Immigration Waves to America.
C．Arab-Americans, Contributions to America.
D．Arab-Americans, Education and Income.
