There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it. A Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were resting their arms on it, and talking over its head. “Very uncomfortable for the Dormouse,” thought Alice, “only, as it's asleep, I believe it doesn't mind.”
The table was a large one, but the three were all crowded(挤) together at one corner of it. “No room! No room!” they cried out when they saw Alice coming. “There’s plenty of room!” said Alice angrily, and she sat down in a large armchair at one end of the table.
“Have some wine,” the March Hare said in an encouraging tone(鼓励的语调).
Alice looked all round the table, but there was nothing on it but tea. “I don't see any wine,” she said. “There isn't any,” said the March Hare.
“Then it was impolite of you not to offer it,” said Alice angrily.
“It wasn't very civil of you to take your seat without invitation,” said the March Hare.
“I didn't know it was your table,” said Alice, “it's laid for a great many more than three.”
“Your hair wants cutting,” said the Hatter. He had been watching Alice for some time.
“You should learn not to give your personal ideas,” Alice said seriously. “It's very rude.”
The Hatter opened his eyes very wide on hearing this; but all said was, “Why is a raven(乌鸦) like writing-desk ”
“Come, we shall have some fun now!” said Alice. “I'm glad they've begun asking riddles(谜语). I believe I can guess that,” she said loudly.
“Do you mean that you think you can find out the answer to it ” said the March Hare.
“Exactly so,” said Alice.
“Then you should say what you mean,” the March Hare went on.
“I do,” Alice quickly replied, “at least —— at least I mean what I say —— that’s the same thing, you know.”… Finally, they all began to laugh at Alice.
( ) 4. The underlined word “civil” in the passage probably means“ ”.

D. Because Alice didn't like her hair at all.

(C)
Travelling is not always happy, at least for the buddies in the movie Green Book. The popular film won Best Picture at the 91st Academy Awards on Feb.25, 2019.
The movie was adapted from the true story of a road trip through the southern US in the early 1960s.In the film, the black pianist Don Shirley hires(雇佣) Italian-American Tony Vallelonga to drive him to performances, but they face problems because of Shirley's skin colour. These problems lead them to form a special friendship.
“There's something so deeply right about this movie, so true to the time,” wrote US film critic Mick LaSalle. The time LaSalle is talking about was between late 1870s and 1960s, a very different period in US history. Many parts of the country had Jim Crow Laws(《吉姆·克劳法》), which allowed racial segregation(允许种族隔离). These laws made life and travel dangerous for African-Americans. They couldn't use certain hotels, restaurants, or even gas stations. They had to be indoors after sunset or they might be put into prison(监牢). Even black celebrities(名人) had to follow the laws.
But in 1936, a black mail carrier named Victor H. Green had an idea. He made a list of friendly businesses in New York City. He published the list as a small book with a green cover. The Green Book helped African-Americans travel more safely. Then, in 1964, Jim Crow Laws went away. The book went away, too.
Today many US people still remember the time of Jim Crow. But they probably don't know about the Green Book. It's a forgotten part of the story. Thanks to this movie, maybe people can remember it again.
( ) 7. What was Don Shirley in the film
A. A driver. B. A writer. C. A black pianist. D. A black mail carrier.
( ) 8. How was the life and travel for African-Americans in 1900s
A. Easy. B. Dangerous. C. Pleasant. D. Safe.
( ) 9. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to
A. The Green Book. B. Jim Crow Laws.
C. Racial segregation. D. The period between 1870s and 1960s.
( ) 10. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. Jim Crow Laws disappeared in 1936.
B. Black celebrities didn't need to follow the Jim Crow Laws.
C. The Green Book helped African-Americans travel more safely.
D. They met problems during their trip because of Shirley's bad behavior.
