8．閱讀下面短文并回答問(wèn)題，然后將答案寫(xiě)到答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上（請(qǐng)注意問(wèn)題后的詞數(shù)要求）．
[1]Do Americans have any morals？That's a good question．Many people insist that ideas about right and wrong are merely personal opinions．Some voices，though，are calling Americans back to traditional moral values．William J．Bennett，former U．S Secretary of Education，edited The Book of Virtues in 1993 to do justthat．Bennett suggests that great moral stories can build character．The success of Bennett's book shows that many Americans still believe in moral values．But what are they？
[2]One of the most basic moral values for Americans is honesty．The well-known legend about George Washington and the cherry tree teaches this value clearly．Little George cut down his father's favorite cherry tree while trying out his new hatchet．When his father asked him about it，George said，"I cannot tell a lie．I did it with my hatchet．"Instead of punishment．George received praise for   ．Sometimes American honesty-being open and direct-can offend people．But Americans still believe that"honesty is the best policy．"
[3]Another virtue Americans respect is perseverance．Remember Aesop's fable about the turtle and the rabbit that had a race？The rabbit thought he could win easily，so he took a nap．But the turtle finally won because he did not give up．
[4]In no way can this brief description cover all the moral values honored by Americans．Courage，responsibility，loyalty，gratitude and many others could be discussed．In fact，Bennett's bestseller-over 800 pages-highlights just ten virtues．Even Bennett admits that he has only scratched the surface．But no matter how long or short the list，moral values，are invaluable．They are the foundation of American culture and any culture．
76．What's the text mainly about？（no more than 10 words）
（What are） The American moral values
77．What does the underlined word"that"in Paragraph I probably refer to？（no more than 10 words）calling Americans back to traditional moral values
78．Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words．（no more than 5 words）
Telling the truth/being honest/his honesty
79．Which paragraph would the following example belong to？
Another story tells of a little train that had to climb a steep hill．The hill was so steep that the little train had a hard time trying to get over it．But the train just kept pulling all the way and finally made it．
paregraph 3．
80．Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 into Chinese．
簡(jiǎn)單的描述不可能涵蓋美國(guó)人所推崇的價(jià)值．．

分析 文章主要介紹了幾個(gè)美國(guó)道德德行，意在告訴讀者美國(guó)道德德行是什么．

解答 76．（What are） The American moral values？主旨大意題．根據(jù)第一段的介紹和整篇文章內(nèi)容可知，主要探討了有關(guān)美國(guó)道德得行的問(wèn)題．
77．calling Americans back to traditional moral values猜測(cè)詞意題．根據(jù)前句"Some voices，though，are calling Americans back to traditional moral values"可知，that代指calling Americans back to traditional moral values．
78．Telling the truth/being honest/his honesty．第二段第一句話(huà)"One of the most basic moral values for Americans is honesty"是該段的主旨句，提到誠(chéng)實(shí)是基本的道德．
79．paregraph 3．推理題．由第三段第一句"Another virtue Americans respect is perseverance．"告訴我們提到美國(guó)道德另一方面是堅(jiān)持，所以該例子屬于第三段．
80．簡(jiǎn)單的描述不可能涵蓋美國(guó)人所推崇的價(jià)值．In no way can this brief description cover all the moral values honored by Americans．在翻譯時(shí)注意in no way意為絕不．

3．If you're not a fan of KFC's famous Double Down hot dog，don't worry!KFC in the UK is developing a new treat：an edible coffee cup．
The product is still in the trial stage and not yet available for purchase，but according to a KFC news report，the treat is made from a unique biscuit，wrapped in sugar paper，and lined with a layer of heat-resistant white chocolate，which helps keep the coffee hot．As you drink the coffee in the cup，the white chocolate lining will begin to melt slowly，and the biscuit begins to soften．
But it doesn't end there---the cups are not only edible，they also have a pleasant smell．KFC partnered with The Robin Collective，an experimental food company，to make the cups with coconut sun cream，freshly cut grass and wild flowers scents．According to the news report，that's because the scents arouse the positive memories we associate with warm weather，sunshine and summer holidays．Sounds…delicious？
A manager at KFC said，"We have been experimenting with the edible packaging in limited quantities to see if it could be a popular product in the market．We believe if our customers occasionally like to have their cake and eat it，why wouldn't they want to have their cup and eat it instead!"
The edible cups will only be available in the UK when it comes out．According to a spokesperson for KFC，there are at present no plans to bring it to the U．S．yet．

A．make the cup smell delicious
B．prevent the heat giving off soon
C．help the cup look beautiful
D．keep the biscuit tasting soft
26．What does KFC do with the new product in its trial stage？D
A．Promote it by adding different scents．
B．Sell it at a lower price in the US first．
C．Invite customers to eat it for free．
D．Test it in the market in small quantities．
27．Which statement is NOT true according to the passage？C
A．The cup not only tastes good but also smells delicious．
B．The cup is developed with the help of The Robin Collective
C．Customers all over the world can soon try the edible cup．
D．The cup is made from biscuit，sugar paper and chocolate．
28．What is the best title for the passage？A
A．KFC's new product---Edible coffee cups
B．A new treat---Coffee cups and positive memories
C．Coffee cups made from biscuits and chocolate

13．When your country relies heavily on tourism and you lose more than a third of your visitors due to political revolution，you've got to do something pretty dramatic to get them back．And if you are Egypt，you reopen a pyramid．
The Egyptian government recently announced that one of its great pyramids 一 the Pyramid of Chefren 一 and as many as six other ancient tombs at the Giza Necropolis （吉薩金字塔群） will be reopened after a long restoration project．The move was made in an attempt to revive （重振） a tourism industry that was badly affected by last year's unrest．
Egypt became a no-go area following the unrest in 2011．Scenes of violent protests，mainly in the Capital Cairo，were broadcast ACROSS the world and understandably took the country off the holiday trail．
Despite that questions are still being asked about the security of potential tourists visiting the region，Egypt's antiquities minister Muhammad Ibrahim insisted that it was a safe country．He said the region was far more stable one year on，adding that other archaeological （考古的） sites were due to be opened across Egypt in coming months．
The Pyramid of Chefren，also known as the Pyramid of Chafren，is the second largest pyramid at the Giza site．It was built as the tomb for the Pharaoh Chafren from ancient Egypt's fourth dynasty．The pyramid and the other around it，were discovered in 1927 by American archaeologist George Reinser，and have been closed for restoration on several other occasions in the past．
In 1990s a site management plan was carried out to try and preserve these historic treasures when the antiquities ministry discovered that the large volume of visitors over the years had raised levels of humidity inside the structures to levels of up to 80 percent．Research found that every visitor to the pyramids released an average of 20 grams of water vapor through sweat，which slowly caused damage to the walls inside．
The project，which cost around $4 million，included cleaning the walls of the tombs and strengthening them，as well AS removing graffiti left by previous visitors．Inscriptions （銘文）and paintings were also preserved．
 
（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN FIFTEEN WORDS．）
81．The Pyramid of Chefren will be reopened following restoration project in an attempt torevive Egypt's tourism industry
82．According to the passage，why were tourists unwilling to go to Egypt after the unrest in 2011？Because tourists were worried about their safety．
83．What else does the Egyptian government plan to do in the coming months to help the country's tourism industry？To reopen other archaeological sites across Egypt．
84．A site management plan was carried out in the 1990s becausethe large volume of visitors had caused damage to the walls inside pyramids．

18．"He who can have patience can have what he wants，"said Benjamin Franklin．They say patience is a virtue （美德） seldom found in women and never in men．This may or may not be true，but it's fair to say that there is nobody on the earth who couldn't benefit from more patience．
Patience is necessary for success．
It is said that"all good things come to those who wait"．Many of the great scientists have remarked that their scientific discoveries came only through patient perseverance （堅(jiān)持）．Edison said，"Genius was 99% perspiration and only 1% inspiration．"Patience teaches us to value the effort and not just the success．It is a mistake to think that happiness can only be obtained through achievements．
Patience brings peace of mind．
When we desire certain outcomes （結(jié)果），we'll have no peace of mind．Even if one desire is filled，the nature of desire is that more will appear in its place．There is no end to human desires．Patience means we will work with an attitude of detachment （超然）．
Patience can transform suffering into joy．
Throughout life we suffer injustice； the best healer is patience．Through being patient and accepting our situation，it's quite possible for our suffering to be transformed．
Sri Chinmoy said，"If failure has the strength to turn your life into bitterness itself，then patience has the strength to turn your life into the sweetest joy．"

63．Whose saying supports the idea that patience makes a person joyful？C
A．Franklin's          B．Edison's         C．Chinmoy's         D．Einstein's
64．In the writer's opinion，D．
A．human desires will easily be filled
B．patience is a virtue seldom found in a person
C．happiness can only be obtained through success
D．patience is the best medicine of suffering
65．How is the whole passage organized？B
A．General-detail-general．  B．General-detail．
C．Detail-general-detail．   D．Detail-general．
66．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？C
A．We All Need Patience          B．Patience Means Success
C．Benefits of Patience          D．We Should Not Be patient．
