二、阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
The English language has a lot of words which can be used in many different ways and in many different expressions.
One such example is the word matter. In fact, matter can mean just about anything. It could be one of the most useful words in the English language.
Let's get to the heart of the matter—a matter of principle (原则).
If someone says that you owe (欠) him $50, but you don't, a friend might say, "Well, you could pay him the $50. It's not that much money. Then you won't have to hear him say it anymore." But if you do not owe him the money, do not pay him the money. It's a matter of principle.
There is another way to use the word matter. But be careful with your choice of words.
If you ask someone, "What's the matter " it shows you are worried about the other person. But saying, "What's the matter with you " has a completely different meaning. And it usually sounds rude (粗鲁的). In fact, when you say, "What's the matter with you " you are suggesting that the person did something wrong or stupid.
Another expression that could sound rude is to say, "It doesn't matter to me." Here, it depends on the context, and how you say it.
Let's say you tell someone that a friend just got a big raise at work. That person answers with, "It doesn't matter to me." Here, it means he or she does not care. And it sounds rude.
But saying, "Oh, you pick where we eat dinner. It doesn't matter to me." does not sound rude. In this situation, "it doesn't matter" shows you are easy-going (随和的).
No matter how you look at it and what you say, matter is a very useful word. And it's only a matter of time before you will become an expert on the use of matter.
（1）What is the author's suggestion in Paragraph 4
A.Every penny counts.

The students got started on the inexplicable (费解的) task.At the end of the class, the professor 6 all the answer papers and started reading each one of them aloud in front of all the students. All of them, with no 7 described the black dot, trying to explain its 8 in the middle of the sheet, etc. After all had been 9 the classroom was silent, and the professor began to 10 ：
"I' m not going to grade this 11 wanted to give you something to think about. No one wrote about the 12 part of the paper. Everyone focused on the black dot, and the same happens in our 13 .We have a white paper to observe, but we always focus on the dark spots. Our life is a 14 given to us with love and care, and we always have 15 to celebrate: nature renewing itself every day, our friends around us, the job that 16 our livelihood and the miracles (奇迹) we see every day.
17 , we insist on focusing only on the dark spots: the health problems that worry us, the lack of money, the 18 relationship with workmates, the 19 with a friend, etc.
The dark spots are very 20 compared to everything we have in our daily life, but they are the ones that pollute our minds.

四、任务型阅读
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A. Kissing is only for close family or women friends.B. However, Eskimos never greet each other with a bow.C. Everyone understands a smile so don't be afraid to use it!D. In some cultures, it is usual to kiss on the cheek three times!E. This custom probably started because of the freezing weather.F. Bowing was also traditional in many European countries in the past.G. But it is now becoming international, especially in business situations.
You might think that simple things like saying hello and goodbye are the same in every culture. Think again!
Shaking hands to say hello or goodbye was a Western custom (风俗) at first.
Traditionally, the Chinese custom for greeting was to hold one's hands together and nod their head a little.
Japanese people greet each other by bowing (鞠躬). When greeting an older or more important person, it is usual to bow lower and for longer. But only men did it.
People in European countries such as Italy often greet each other with a kiss on both cheeks (脸颊). Even men greet each other like this.
Eskimos, a group of people living in the very cold northern areas of North America, greet each other by lightly rubbing (摩擦) their noses together.
Often, Eskimos only leave their eyes and noses uncovered. And the rest of their bodies are covered with warm clothing and their hands with gloves.
When you're not sure what the customs are in a new country, there's one greeting that is the same all over the world: a smile. ____
五、阅读理解
阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
To develop one's taste in English, the most effective way is to read English books extensively. Yet one may be at a loss to choose the appropriate books, especially as a beginner. As a native Spanish, I would like to share some of my experience.
My first English novel was Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, recommended by many English teachers and professors as an ideal book for English learners. But my experience was somewhat disastrous. I had great difficulty in understanding the novel, let alone enjoying it. It's not the vocabulary that troubled me, but rather the way Austen constructs sentences, and her way of thinking, which seemed too remote to me at that time. My fading enthusiasm was much recovered after reading Hemingway's novel A Farewell to Arms. No long and complicated sentences. And I particularly liked his brief and straightforward (简洁的) style. So my first suggestion is, as a beginner, you'd better choose contemporary novels instead of classical ones.
However, if you restrict yourself to novels you will miss a lot of treasures. English essays can at once inform you, entertain you, and improve your taste in English. The best example is Bertrand Russell's work. Its language is plain, yet you cannot help feeling the elegance and the peculiar sense of humor. His simple language enables his philosophy within the reach of ordinary people. Here comes my second suggestion—essays are indispensable.
Never follow others' recommendations and opinions blindly, however famous or influential (有很大影响的) the person might be. We should be open to various ideas, but always think and determine for ourselves. As a saying goes, one man's meat is another man's poison. With that in mind, we are bound to find out our favorite writers through reading and develop our fine taste in English.
（1）What made the first English novel that the author read hard to understand
A.Complicated conversations.
B.Sentences and Austen's thinking pattern.
C.The old-fashioned vocabulary.
D.Not knowing the social background.
（2）Which can best replace the underlined word "indispensable"
A.Necessary
B.Challenging
C.Relevant
D.Inspirational
（3）What advice does the author give in the last paragraph
A.Choose books that challenge us most.
B.Read books that are instructive.
C.Don't be affected by others' choices.
D.Compare books before buying.
（4）What is the author's purpose of writing the passage
A.Give comments on literature works.
B.Tell beginners how to choose English books.
C.Encourage people to read more English books.
D.Recommend first class books to English learners.
