2．Despite great affection for their parents，many Chinese people remain"too shy"to express love for them，according to the survey．
The poll of around 6，000 people，conducted by Beijing-based recruitment website Zhaopin．com，was conducted as the nation gears up for Mother's Day on Sunday．
Although 74.6 percent of participants said they knew their mothers'birthday，only 25.5percent would like to tell her"I love you"．
"This figure suggests mothers occupy an important place in most participants'mind．Yet，many people still find it'embarrassing'to express their affection，"the survey's organizer said．
As to the form of celebration on Mother's Day，67percent of participants said they would prepare some gifts，with 70percent saying that they would spend no more than 500yuan，while 51percent said they planned to phone their mother because they would either too busy at work or be away from home．
"I do love my mother deeply but I have never said'I love you'that often．It just feels quite weird for me to say it to her in person，"said Stella Wang，a 27-year-old offiice worker，noting that she prefers to express her feelings in writing in birthday or Christmas cards．
"I have to say that it's difficult for me to express my love for my mother．I think if I did say it out，it might confuse her，"said Liao Hao，a 32-year-old engineer．
"Very few Chinese，at least those I know，are used to saying'I love you'…they may never say it once，"said Mike Denver，an American working in Shanghai as an English teacher．
Hu Shaojun，a sociology professor from Shanghai's Fudan University said，"The personality of the Chinese people is generally quiet，reserved and serious．For Chinese it's unnecessary and even regarded as'odd'to display their affection for relatives and friends．"

61．The purpose of conducting the poll is toA．
A．find out how the Chinese will express their love to parents．
B．make preparations for Mother's Day．
C．survey how many people will say"I love you"．
D．survey what the Chinese will do on Mother's Day．

分析 本文介紹了北京智聯(lián)招聘網(wǎng)對大約6 000人進(jìn)行了有關(guān)"人們?nèi)绾螒c祝 母親節(jié)和對母親表達(dá)愛"的民意調(diào)查以及調(diào)查的結(jié)果．調(diào)查顯示，盡管對父母有深厚的情感，許多中國人仍羞于表達(dá)對父母的愛，這是由中國人的性格決定的．

解答 61．A 推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章第二段的"…was conducted as the nation gears up forMother's Day on Sunday．"和第三段的"As to the form of celebration on Mother'sDay…"可知，進(jìn)行民意調(diào)查是因為國人在為周日的母親節(jié)作準(zhǔn)備和想了解關(guān)于母親節(jié)的慶祝形式．所以民意調(diào)查的目的是為了弄清楚中國人如何向父母表達(dá)他們的愛，故選A． 
62．D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文中第三段中的"…only 25.5 percent would like to tellher"I love you"．以及第二段中的"The poll of around 6，000people…"可知，向父母說"我愛你"的人數(shù)是6000×0.255=1530，故選D．
63．B 詞義猜測題．從本段中的"…she prefers to express her feelings inwriting on birthday or Christmas cards．她更喜歡在生日或圣誕卡上表達(dá)自己的感情"以及下一段中的"…itmight confuse her…"可知中國人不喜歡直接對母親說"I love you"．如果說了，會讓母親感到困惑．文中最后一句話中的"…regardedas"odd‟to display their affection for relatives and friends．"可知，這樣表達(dá)對親友的愛被認(rèn)為是"奇怪的"，所以畫線的詞義為"奇怪的"，故選B．
64．D 推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章最后一段的"The personality of the Chinese people isgenerally quiet，reserved and serious…"可知，中國人的個性一般是安靜的、含蓄的、嚴(yán)肅的，所以中國人不愿對父母說"我愛你"是因為中國人的個性使然，故選D．  
65．C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文章第五段中的"…they would prepare some gifts…"以及"…theyplanned to phone their mother…"可知A項與B項是慶祝方式，而D項買衣服也屬于禮物的范疇，因此只有C項寫封生日郵件不屬于慶祝母親節(jié)的方式，故選C．

點評 本文屬于新聞報道類閱讀，屬于說明文類型．做題時注意文中的細(xì)節(jié)，根據(jù)題目的要求，在文中進(jìn)行定位，選擇符合題目的答案．

I kept closing the gap between my car and my brother's truck，moving （13）D behind him like a frightened sheep following a shepherd（牧羊人）．I could see Mac watching me in his rearview mirror，and that night at supper，he said，"Leigh，you should keep（14）C distance．You're much too close for these mountain roads．"He （15）D my face for a moment，then added，"Tomorrow will be the last day of high driving．You know there's nothing to be afraid of．"

17．One Sunday a few of us decided to take advantage of the first sunny day we'd have for ages to take a trip down to the coast to visit the penguins again．Last time I went down there was a couple of months ago and it was a dull cold day．Sunday couldn't have been more different-clear skies and sunshine made it feel like summer，although it was still-25°C．
Six of us drove to the coast．It was the first time we'd been off the base on our own without our field assistant，so it had a slightly different feeling-more like a few friends going to the seaside than an Antarctic field trip!When we reached Windy Creek，we luckily caught sight of quite a few small flying seabirds，which are seldom seen there．
Once on the sea ice we found that some of the more curious penguins had wandered over from the main group to come and check us out．We'd been told that then they were nursing their chicks （剛孵出的幼雛） and they would be more careful and nervous than last time，but that didn't seem to be the case． We walked across to the main group which were stretched for a couple of miles along the coast．We sat down for some sandwiches and soon found ourselves surrounded by many curious observers．Without any attackers on land，they were very brave and came within a meter of us to pose （擺姿勢） for photos．
Before heading back，we spent a few hours on the sea ice watching the penguins and their chicks，which had grown dramatically （明顯地） since our last visit．It was such a nice day．
56．When did the trip most probably happen？D
A．On a dull Sunday
B．On a warm Sunday．
C．On a summer Sunday
D．On a winter Sunday．
57．It can be inferred from the second paragraph that the six peopleB．
A．felt a little nervous       
B．felt a little excited
C．were left all by themselves on their Antarctic base
D．got bored with staying with their field assistant
58．What does the writer mean by saying"but that didn't seem to be the case"？C
A．They were told a lie．
B．A wrong decision was made．
C．The truth was the opposite．
D．They didn't believe what they were told．
59．The six people did the following during the trip EXCEPTA
A．feed the penguins
B．take pictures of the penguins
C．enjoy watching flying seabirds
D．watch the young penguins．

17．One morning in 2007．Parthasarathy---we usually called him Partha．---came to meet me．He was disabled and was not an engineer but had majored in a computer course in college．I told Partha，"I'd like to employ people like you．"In fact，it turned out to be the right decision to employ him．Partha had an amazing enthusiasm and his disability did not stop him from improving himself．I was not doing any charity by employing him because my company benefited more from Partha．I have realized that physically challenged people are more faithful than others but unfortunately we usually pay scant attention to them．
At that time our office was on the first floor and Partha had difnculty dealing with the stairs．Seeing him struggle．I decided to make the entire office disabled-friendly．Our ground floor is now intended for the disabled people，and we have special toilets for them．We have also built houses for them near the office so that they can avoid long travelling hours．
After meeting Partha，I decided to hire more disabled people．We waited six months to get another disabled person who then became our receptionist．
I don't regard employing disabled people as charity．I consider it my responsibility．The country has spent much money educating me and I feel it is time for me to do something as a reward．
It is great to work with them．Seeing them work，get married，settle in life and have children is a wonderful experience．
We have 550employees now，and 20percent of them are disabled．We go to Engineering Colleges looking for disabled people but onty to find one or two in each college．Parents don't send them out．The biggest challenge for the physically disabled is the attitude of their parents，but we hire them even if they are not engineers．

56．What kind of person was Partha？（No more than 10words）
Partha was disabled but didn't stop improving himself．
57．What does the underlined word"scant"in the 1st paragraph mean？（No more than 2words）
Little．/Not enough．
58．Why is the ground floor intended for the disabled people？（No more than l2words）
Because the disabled have difficulty dealing with the stairs．
59．How many disabled workers are there in the writer's company now？（No more than 2words）
110
60．Do you agree to the writer's plan to employ more disabled people？And why？（No more than 30words）
Yes．Because it is our duty to reward the country and the disabled need chances to make full use of their skills to improve themselves．．
