“Thank you” is widely 11 in a modern society. It is a very good manner. You should say “Thank you” 12 others help you or say something kind to you. For example, when someone 13 the door for you, when someone says you have done your work well, when someone says you have 14 a nice shirt, or your city is very beautiful, you should say “Thank you”. It is used not only between friends, 15 between parents and children, 16 and sisters, husbands and wives.
“Excuse me” is 17 short polite usage. We use it the same as “Thank you”. When you hear someone says so behind you, you’ll get to know that somebody wants to walk past 18 touching you. It is not polite to interrupt (打断) others while they are 19 .
If you want to have a word with one of them, please say “Excuse me” 20 , and then begin to talk. You should also do so when you want to cough or make any unpleasant noise before others. Let’s say “Thank you” and “Excuse me” on the right situation.

On Nov. 18th, 1908, three men went up in a balloon (气球). They started early in London. The headman was Augusta Gaudron, and the other two men were Tannar and Maitland. They had a big balloon and they were ready for a long way.
Soon they heard the sea. They were carrying the usual rope, and it was hanging down from the basket of the balloon. At the end of the rope they had tied a metal box. This could hold water, or it could be empty. So they were able to change its weight (重量). It was for use over the sea. They were also carrying some bags of sand.
After the sun rose, the balloon went higher. It went up to 3,000 meters, and the air was very cold. The water in the balloon became ice. Snow fell past the men's basket, and they could see more snow on the ground. The men tried to throw out some more sand; but it was hard. They tried to break the icy sand with their knives, but it was not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling, so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake and made a black hole in the ice.
At last they pulled the metal box into the basket. It was still snowing; so they climbed to get away from the snow. They rose to 5,100 metres! Everything became icy. They were so cold that they decided to land. They came down in Poland heavily but safely. They had travelled 1,797 kilometers from London!

Two hundred years ago, American students went to American schools. Like you, they studied math, spelling and geography. Unlike you, they also studied Greek (希腊语) and Latin (拉丁语). In fact, students spent more than half their time studying Greek and Latin.
The same was true for most students in Europe. Until the seventh century, all educated Europeans knew Latin. It did not matter if they lived in England, Italy, France or Spain. If they were educated, they knew Latin.
During the seventh century, educated Europeans began to study Greek as well as Latin. Greek and Latin had been the leading languages of the ancient Greeks and Romans. All educated Europeans were expected to know these languages.
To educated Europeans, the languages of the Greeks and the Romans were important. The ideas of the Greeks and Romans were also important. People knew that many of their own ideas had come from the Greeks and the Romans. To understand their own culture, they must understand its origin (起源). They knew that those beginnings lay in the classical (古典文学的) world.
Today we have so many things to study that few people have time to learn Greek and Latin. Few of you will study either language in school. Yet the ideas of the Greeks and the Romans are still important to us. These ideas still help to shape Western culture today. To understand our own culture, we must understand the culture of the classical world.
26．Two hundred years ago, in American schools ________.
A．students paid little attention to math
B．Greek and Latin were required to study
C．students knew little about geography
27．It was ________ for educated Europeans to study Greek and Latin during the seventh century.

C．the Romans had a great influence on their culture
29．Where does the author of the text probably come from
A．Japan. B．Greece. C．America.
30．In the last paragraph, the author suggests that ________.
A．it’s of great value to learn Greek and Latin
B．the culture of the classical world is useless nowadays
C．Western culture is quite different from Greek and Roman cultures
四、完形填空
Some people have no interest in sports. They think that sports make them 31 and smell bad. They say, “Why waste time playing sports ” To these people, I politely say, “You have not discovered the 32 of sports!”

【导语】本文介绍了作者在重庆的旅行。
1．句意：我不喜欢这里的天气，但我喜欢这里的食物和风景。根据“but I love the food and scenery”可知前后构成转折关系，因此此空表示“不喜欢”，dislike表示“不喜欢”，句子用一般现在时，主语是I，谓语动词用原形。故填dislike。
2．句意：我们没有做什么特别的事。此句是否定句，something要变为anything，故填anything。
3．句意：我和父母就只待在旅馆里，我觉得很无聊。本空是作者感觉无聊，修饰人，用bored。故填bored。
4．句意：幸运的是，中午雨就停了。此空需填副词luckily，作状语，句首单词首字母大写。故填Luckily。
5．句意：幸运的是，中午雨就停了。此空表示“雨停止了”，用stop doing，因此rain要用动名词形式。故填raining。
6．句意：我们午饭吃了重庆火锅。have sth. for lunch“午饭吃了某物”，故填for。
7．句意：北京火锅和重庆火锅之间有很大的不同。短语a big difference表示“很大的不同”。故填difference。
8．句意：这里的食物更辣但是味道更好。根据“more spicy”可知此空需要填good的比较级，表示“更好”，故填better。
9．句意：午饭后，我们决定参观重庆洋人街，因为本地人告诉我们，那是一个参观的好地方。动作发生在过去，decide用过去式。故填decided。
10．句意：午饭后，我们决定参观重庆洋人街，因为本地人告诉我们，那是一个参观的好地方。前后句是因果关系，因此用because“因为”引导原因状语从句。故填because。

14．句意：……当有人说你买了一件漂亮的短裙……。根据“a nice skirt”可知，是当你买了一件漂亮的短裙时，buy“买”；have后接其过去分词bought构成现在完成时。故填bought。

16． 句意：它不仅用于朋友之间，而且用于父母和孩子之间，兄弟姐妹之间。根据“parents and children...and sisters, husbands and wives.”结合选词可知，brother“兄弟”符合语境，此处应用复数形式。故填brothers。
17．句意：“打扰一下”是另一个简短的礼貌用法。根据上段介绍的是“Thank you”的使用习惯，后面又介绍了“Excuse me”，所以应该是另一个，another“又一，另一”符合语境。故填another。
18．句意：当你听到有人在你身后这样说时，你就会知道有人想从你身边走过而不碰你。根据“somebody wants to walk past you”可知，是不想碰到你，结合选词可知介词without“没有”符合语境。故填without。
19．句意：别人说话时打断他们是不礼貌的。根据“It is not polite to interrupt(打断) others ”可知，后面应该是他们正在说话时，要用动词talk，结合语境要用现在进行时，构成是be+doing。故填talking。
20．句意：如果你想和他们中的一个说话，请先说“打扰一下”，然后再开始说话。根据后面“then begin to talk”可知，前面应该是先说打扰下，first“首先”符合语境。故填first。
