【題目】—Many working people like to eat out in order to save time these days.

—Yeah, but I think it ______ more money than cooking at home.

A. takesB. costsC. spends

【答案】B

【解析】

句意“-目前，許多工作的人為了節(jié)省時(shí)間喜歡在外面吃。-是的，但是我認(rèn)為它比在家里做飯花更多的錢”。take譯為“花費(fèi)”時(shí)，用it takes sb+時(shí)間/錢+to do sth；cost譯為“花費(fèi)”時(shí)，用“物+cost+人+時(shí)間/錢”；spend譯為“花費(fèi)”時(shí)，用“人+spend+時(shí)間/錢+（in） doing/on sth”。根據(jù)句意可知it代指“在外面吃”，指（事）物，用cost，故選B。

【題目】 Many people say that they are working too many hours. They don’t have enough time to relax or stay with their family.

Work hours are different from one country to another. In France, people spend about 1,646 hours a year at work. In Japan, however, people work about 2,259 hours a year. That means a Japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a French worker.

Why do people work so many hours? Some people work extra hours because they want to make more money. However, many companies don’t pay over time. Their workers don’t get more pay for more work. These people think it’s their duty to wore more hours. Some are afraid of losing their job if they don’t work more hours. Many people say that their vacations are too short. In France, people get five weeks of paid vacation a year. In Germany, they get from four to six weeks, and in the United States, two weeks. One study shows fewer than half of workers used all their vacation days.

【題目】 In the eyes of many Westerners,Chinese are the best hosts but the worst guests in the world.This is probably because the guest-host relationship in China is much different from that in some Western countries.

In China,guests are almost like gods.Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home,there is always fruit on the table for me,and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water.In the West,things are different.Acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.

And there are lots of things Westerners find difficult to adapt to.For example,my mother-in-law doesn't smoke,so when I see some of her guests smoking in her house,I as a non-smoker,would feel unhappy.Usually I want to stop them directly.But I must realize that,to be a good host in China,she mustn't do that.However,in most North America homes,you should not smoke.If you really want to smoke,you could ask,“Is it OK if I smoke?”But don't be surprised if you get a “no”.In our culture,it's not considered rude at all.

In China,you probably won't need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host,and Chinese are naturally very good hosts.But if Western hosts invite you to their house,try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.

【1】Many Westerns think Chinese are the worst guests because .

A. Chinese act like gods in their homeB. they don't expect gifts from Chinese

C. there are cultural differencesD. Chinese are heavy smokers

【2】If the writer's guests want to smoke in his house,he will probably say “ ”

A. It's OK.Go ahead.B. Would you like a cigarette?

【3】In the passage,the underlined phrase “adapt to” probably means “ ”.

A. think back toB. get used to

C. look forward toD. keep close to

【題目】For centuries, humans have wondered whether there is life on Mars. Why is Mars losing its air? Last week, the question was answered.

“The answer, is blowing in the wind,” said Michael Meyer. He is the lead scientist for Mars Exploration Program.

It turns out solar winds from the sun are slowly stripping( 除掉) away Mars' air. That is what scientists explained at a press conference.

Bruce Jakosky is the principal investigator on the MAVEN team. It is a spacecraft that collects information from Mars as it circles around the planet.

Today, Mars has a thin atmosphere. It is cold and dry. ______

"When we look at ancient Mars, we see a different type of surface. One that had valleys that looked like they were carved by water, lakes that were standing for a long period of time. We see an environment that was much more able to support liquid water."

Recently scientists found a kind of liquid water that flows with salt down a mountain area of the planet. But, it is not always there. Scientists already knew that ice exists on Mars. So why is it important to find liquid water?

"It means that we have a resource. And when we're looking at sending humans to Mars, water is one of the key things that we need to have. Not only for the astronauts to drink, but also to make oxygen and fuel."

Sending humans to Mars will be in the 2030s. Those chosen might fly any number of space vehicles still in development.

Human beings are developing rockets and spacecraft to get people to Mars. Scientists want to know how the human body reacts to being in space for long period of time.

Whether there is life on Mars remains unanswered. But some scientists think there might be some kind of microbial life on the planet. Finding life on another planet would change the way we view the whole universe.

【1】What was the surface of ancient Mars like?

A. It had thin air.B. It was dry.

C. It had valleys that looked like they were carved by water.D. It had no water.

【2】Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The surface of the Mars is different from it used to be.

B. Scientists have known whether there is life on Mars.

C. People can not send humans to Mars forever.

D. There is not any atmosphere on Mars.

【3】What does the underlined word "Those" in the text refer to?

A. ScientistsB. RocketsC. AstronautsD. Vehicles

【4】Which of the following is the best for“______”in Paragraph 5?

A. But it used to be much different.B. It was the same case in the past.

C. It's always like this.D. It will be different in the future.
