二、阅读理解
When my friend suggested going to the thrift shop (慈善商店), instantly I thought “I hope no one I know sees me”.It was the same when my cousin commented on my new furniture and Japanese fine bone china bowls and asked where I got them.They were from the local thrift shop but instead I said “from the antique shop”.
Many people in my Greek Cypriot community would look down on me if I said I shopped at the thrift shop.They may pity me, consider me a failure.Immigrants sacrificed their families and homes for a better life.Buying a house and having enough money to live comfortably, to educate children and see them also live comfortably, are a big part of the immigrant dream.But has this dream made us materialistic at the cost of our own planet
Our love for purchasing the latest trendy clothes or furniture, and then donating them when we are tired of them has become normal.I was once like this.But after watching the documentary The True Cost, I learned donated clothes that don't get sold are sent to developing nations, many of them ending up in landfills (垃圾填埋地).In addition, your new dress requires electricity and materials to make.But if you buy a second hand dress, there's one less dress in a landfill and one less new dress to be made.
A friend introduced me to the thrift shop only a few years ago.My first item was a dress she gifted me.It was lovely and I loved it.Nobody could tell it was second hand.Then I began to purchase more second hand branded clothes of high quality.Once I visited a friend and was impressed by how she decorated her apartment.“It's all second hand,”she said.I couldn't believe it.The truth is that a lot of things sold at the thrift shop are in new or almost new condition.That's when I made the decision to only buy second hand things.
Selling second hand things isn't anything new but what the planet needs is more buyers.There is so much excess (过度的) production in the world.So stop feeling ashamed, and let's get shopping.
1.What kind of feelings is expressed in Paragraph 1
A.Pride.        B.Embarrassment.
C.Delight. D.Sympathy.
2.What are many people in the author's community like
A.They are probably materialistic.
B.They care about the environment.
C.They think highly of thrift shopping.
D.They look down upon immigrants.
3.What was the author encouraged to do after visiting her friend's apartment
A.Watch the documentary The True Cost.
B.Donate more to local charities.
C.Avoid shopping too much.
D.Stop buying new things.
4.What's the purpose of the text
A.To entertain. B.To advertise.
C.To persuade. D.To describe.
三、七选五
Some people describe American society as a salad bowl while others think of it as a melting pot.In a bowl of salad,all the ingredients are mixed together. 1  Together,however,the ingredients make up a unity.All the ingredients of a salad contribute to the finished product.They may be covered with the same dressing(调味酱),but the green vegetables,tomatoes and cooked corn can all be seen for what they are.
From this point of view,America is very much like a salad bowl where individual ethnic groups mix together,yet maintain their cultural uniqueness.People may work together during the day at similar jobs and in the same companies,but at night they may return to their ethnic groups where their own individual culture directs their way of life. 2  Each ethnic group has its own special customs,language,food and traditions to protect and defend.This idea of the salad bowl is referred to as cultural diversity;that is,American society is a collection of various cultures living together in harmony within one country.
 3  Here,society is like one large pot of soup.All cultural aspects are mixed together,sacrificing their original identity and keeping a bit of what they were to become a new reality.The longer the soup is cooked,the better the taste and the more likely it will be for the mixture to dissolve.In this sense,America can surely be seen as a melting pot where people from all over the world come to live and work together forming one nation.There are dozens of shared symbols.  4  In such a culture,symbols like the flag and the nation’s official song serve to break down the walls which separate ethnic groups.
Whether a salad bowl or a melting pot,America can be best described as a mixture of both. 5 
A.Both are correct depending on one’s point of view.
B.They never lose their shapes,colours or tastes.
C.This is why there is so much diversity within America.
D.In other words,America is a nation where there is unity in diversity.
E.Thus,one needs to abandon one’s culture to be considered “American”.
F.They serve to develop the various ethnic groups to create a new American culture.
G.The other theory,which is also used to describe American society,is the melting pot.
四、语法填空

三、七选五
1.B 根据下文中的“the ingredients make up a unity”和“can all be seen for what they are”可推测出,此段主要论述虽然美国社会就像一碗沙拉,所有的原料都混合在一起,但各种原料却没有因此失去自己的特色,即我们能看到不同种类的文化组成了现在的美国社会。所以B项符合上下文语境。故选B项。
2.C 根据下文中的“Each ethnic group has its own special...and defend.”可知,每个民族都有自己要保护和保卫的特殊的文化、语言、食物和传统。由此可推断出,此处解释了美国多元文化存在的原因。C项符合上下文语境。故选C项。
3.G 根据第一段中的两种观点“a salad bowl”和“a melting pot”及空格后的“one large pot of soup”可知,本段要介绍另外一种观点。G项说法和第一段中的第二种观点一致。故选G项。

2.promoted 根据时间状语From 1405 to 1433可知,本句陈述的是过去发生的事情,故本空应用一般过去时。
3.the the number of意为“……的数量”,故本空应用定冠词the。
4.involving 本空和空后现在分词providing为并列成分,都在句中作状语,故本空应用现在分词involving。
5.which 本空引导非限制性定语从句,修饰voyages,关系词在从句中作主语,指物,故本空应用关系代词which。
6.arrival 根据空前名词所有格Magellan's可知,本空应用名词形式。
7.after 根据句意可知,本空缺少介词,意为“在……之后”,故本空应用介词after。
