阅读下列短文，从各题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Katherine Kiper , nine months pregnant , waited out（等待……结束）Hurricane Katrina in her father’s house in New Orleans with her husband and two young sons .
“The windows started popping and the doors , the shutters started blowing open ,” Kiper said . By the time the storm ended , she was giving birth to her baby . But when they looked outside , there was a foot of water on the road .
“Then , the house next to us caught fire , so we were really anxious , ”she said . “We headed toward the Superdome — because we thought that that was our only hope and our only chance .” To get to the Superdome , Kiper and her family had to catch a ride on a boat . But so many people piled on , and it overturned.
“I was just worried about the kids ,” she said . “You know , I thought , my kids are going die .” Wet but alive , the family pressed on toward the Superdome . They headed in and went straight for medical treatment . A helicopter airlifted the family to the Baton Rouge Airport , where they piled into an ambulance heading for the Baton Rouge Women’s Hospital . There , in a clean and safe environment , Kiper gave birth to a son — Mason . But her heart is heavy . Her oldest son , Marcel , waited out the storm at his grandmother’s house , and Kiper still hasn’t heard from him . She worries if Marcel has been sleeping in the Superdome or on a highway .
“I feel in my heart he’s okay ,” she said , crying . “It’s just the fact that I can’t talk to him , and he don’t know how I’m doing . We’re so close . We’re a very close family .”
56. When did Katherine Kiper know there was a foot of water on the road
When waiting out the storm .
After the storm ended .
After Mason was born .
When heading for Superdome .
57. The boat that Katherine Kiper took turned over because _______ .
the wind was too strong
the rain was still very heavy
there were too many people on the boat
the water flew very fast
58. After Mason was born , Katherine Kiper was still worried because ______ .
there wasn’t any news from her oldest son
their place was still in danger
her house was completely destroyed
her baby needed more care
59. What would be the best title for the passage

One son born , another missing
B
American are proud of their variety and individuality , yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform , whether it is the uniform of a lift operator or the uniform of a five-star general . Why are uniforms so popular in the United States
Among the arguments for uniforms ,one is that in the eyes of most people uniforms look more professional than civilian(百姓的) clothes . People have become conditioned to expecting higher quality from a man who wears a uniform。The television repairman who wears a uniform is likely to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes . Faith in the skill of a car mechanic （汽车修理工）is increased by a uniform . What easier way is there for a nurse , a policeman , a hairdresser , or a waiter to lose professional identity（职业身份）than to step out of uniform
Uniforms also have many practical good points . They are often more comfortable and more lasting than civilian clothes .
The primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them . Though there are many types of uniforms , the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it , without change , until retirement . When people look alike , they are likely to think , speak , and act similarly on the job at least .
Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems . Though they are long-lasting , often their initial （起初的）expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes . Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain , requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home foundering possible with many types of civilian clothes .
60. What surprises us is that Americans ______ .
still judge a man by his clothes
think highly of uniforms
less prefer wearing civilian clothes
respect a lift operator in uniform
61. People are likely to think that a man in uniform ______ .
suggests quality work
shows his social position
appears to be more practical
looks more fresh and attractive
62. Those who are against uniforms believe that people wearing uniforms ______ .
are usually helpful
have little freedom
lose personal character
enjoy greater popularity
63. It can be inferred from the underlined sentence ( in Paragraph 2 ) that ______ .
it’s impossible for people with jobs to lose their identity
people’s identity can be recognized more easily by their uniforms
nurses and policemen must wear uniforms when working
people in those professions act in an easier way without uniforms

Last August , Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking for a college for their 17-year-old daughter , Maureen . With a checklist （一览表）of colleges in hand , the Dallas family toured around the country visiting half a dozen schools . They sought a university that offered the teenager’s intended major , one located near a large city , and a campus where their daughter would be safe .
“The safety issue is a big one , “ say Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn’t alone in his worries . On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns , and the same question was always asked : what about crime But when college officials always gave the same answer — “That’s not a problem here .” — Mahoney began to feel uneasy .
“No crime what so ever ” comments Mahoney today . “I just don’t buy it .” Nor should he : in 1999 the US Department of Education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around campuses . “Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to colleges ,” says David Nichols , author of Creating a Safe Campus . “Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation . ”
But getting accurate information isn’t easy . Colleges must report crime statistics （统计数字）by law , but some hold back for fear of bad publicity , leaving the honest ones looking dangerous . “The truth may not always be obvious , ” warns S . Daniel Carter of Security on Campus , Inc , the nation’s leading campus safety watchdog group （监察组织）.
To help concerned parents , Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime issues and effective solutions .
64. The Mahoneys visited quite a few colleges last August ______ .
to express the opinions of many parents
to choose a right one for their daughter
to check the cost of college education
to find a right one near a large city
65. It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crimes because some colleges ______ .
receive too many visitors
mirror the rest of the nation
hide the truth of campus crimes
have too many watchdog groups
66. The underlined word “buy”(in Paragraph 3) means “______” .
mind
admit
believe
expect
67. We learn from the passage that “the honest one” (in Paragraph 4 ) most probably refers to
colleges that ______ .
are protected by campus security
report campus crime by law
are free campus crimes
enjoy very good publicity
68. What does the passage mainly talk about
Exact campus crime statistics .
Crimes on or around campuses .
Effective solutions to campus crimes .
Concerns about campus safety .

One of the ways in which Chinese and American traditions are different is in when we do business . When I first came to China , I was happy when friends came over to visit ; but often surprised when at the end of the visit they asked me for something : some help , some favor . I felt as if they had just been trying to be nice to me so that I would be willing to help them . In a way I felt cheated . Why hadn’t they told me that they were here on business instead of just a visit to see me Now I realized that this is the Chinese way of working .
First you should create a friendly atmosphere , in a sense rebuild the bridge of friendship .The later after you have relaxed , you can do business . In the United States it is often the opposite . Perhaps our behavior can be understood from the saying “Save the best last ”.In the United States we usually do business first and then save the best — our friendly talk — until after .
69. Who wrote the article I think it must be written by ______ .
a Chinese
an American
an Englishman
a Frenchman
70. Most of the Chinese friends came to visit in order to ______ .
show friendship
ask for help
heat him or her
both A and B
71. The writer felt surprised and cheated because ______ .
he only wanted to have a friendly talk
he didn’t want to give any help
the visitors didn’t ask any help at first
he hadn’t expected any one would ask him for help
72. From the article we can know ______ .
the Chinese act in a more direct way
the Americans act in a more direct way
neither the Chinese nor the Americans act in a more direct way
both act in the same direct way
73. Which of the following statements is true
The writer thinks the American way is better .
The writer thinks the Chinese way is better .
The writer thinks the two ways are the same .
The writer thinks it is not necessary to decide which way is better .

In the Second World War , the rate went down to less than one percent . In addition , penicillin was instrumental in keeping wounds from getting infected and in helping to speed the healing process of those wounds that did become infected .

We had a discussion about whether it is necessary for us to wear uniform this Monday afternoon . Most of the students think that school uniforms make students look neat and tidy and attractive . Students needn’t worry about fashions . And what’s more , it is easy for teachers to recognize the students of their own school .
However , a few students are against wearing school uniforms . They think school uniforms are expensive . Students look the same and can’t be individuals . They are also fed up with wearing the same clothes every day .
In my opinion , wearing school uniform is good for students and for school’s reputation as well .

Katherine Kiper , nine months pregnant , waited out（等待……结束）Hurricane Katrina in her father’s house in New Orleans with her husband and two young sons .
“The windows started popping and the doors , the shutters started blowing open ,” Kiper said . By the time the storm ended , she was giving birth to her baby . But when they looked outside , there was a foot of water on the road .
“Then , the house next to us caught fire , so we were really anxious , ”she said . “We headed toward the Superdome — because we thought that that was our only hope and our only chance .” To get to the Superdome , Kiper and her family had to catch a ride on a boat . But so many people piled on , and it overturned.
“I was just worried about the kids ,” she said . “You know , I thought , my kids are going die .” Wet but alive , the family pressed on toward the Superdome . They headed in and went straight for medical treatment . A helicopter airlifted the family to the Baton Rouge Airport , where they piled into an ambulance heading for the Baton Rouge Women’s Hospital . There , in a clean and safe environment , Kiper gave birth to a son — Mason . But her heart is heavy . Her oldest son , Marcel , waited out the storm at his grandmother’s house , and Kiper still hasn’t heard from him . She worries if Marcel has been sleeping in the Superdome or on a highway .
“I feel in my heart he’s okay ,” she said , crying . “It’s just the fact that I can’t talk to him , and he don’t know how I’m doing . We’re so close . We’re a very close family .”

American are proud of their variety and individuality , yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform , whether it is the uniform of a lift operator or the uniform of a five-star general . Why are uniforms so popular in the United States
Among the arguments for uniforms ,one is that in the eyes of most people uniforms look more professional than civilian(百姓的) clothes . People have become conditioned to expecting higher quality from a man who wears a uniform。The television repairman who wears a uniform is likely to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes . Faith in the skill of a car mechanic （汽车修理工）is increased by a uniform . What easier way is there for a nurse , a policeman , a hairdresser , or a waiter to lose professional identity（职业身份）than to step out of uniform
Uniforms also have many practical good points . They are often more comfortable and more lasting than civilian clothes .
The primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them . Though there are many types of uniforms , the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it , without change , until retirement . When people look alike , they are likely to think , speak , and act similarly on the job at least .
Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems . Though they are long-lasting , often their initial （起初的）expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes . Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain , requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home foundering possible with many types of civilian clothes .
60. What surprises us is that Americans ______ .
still judge a man by his clothes
think highly of uniforms
less prefer wearing civilian clothes
respect a lift operator in uniform
61. People are likely to think that a man in uniform ______ .
suggests quality work
shows his social position
appears to be more practical
looks more fresh and attractive
62. Those who are against uniforms believe that people wearing uniforms ______ .
are usually helpful
have little freedom
lose personal character
enjoy greater popularity
63. It can be inferred from the underlined sentence ( in Paragraph 2 ) that ______ .
it’s impossible for people with jobs to lose their identity
people’s identity can be recognized more easily by their uniforms
nurses and policemen must wear uniforms when working
people in those professions act in an easier way without uniforms

Last August , Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking for a college for their 17-year-old daughter , Maureen . With a checklist （一览表）of colleges in hand , the Dallas family toured around the country visiting half a dozen schools . They sought a university that offered the teenager’s intended major , one located near a large city , and a campus where their daughter would be safe .
“The safety issue is a big one , “ say Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn’t alone in his worries . On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns , and the same question was always asked : what about crime But when college officials always gave the same answer — “That’s not a problem here .” — Mahoney began to feel uneasy .
“No crime what so ever ” comments Mahoney today . “I just don’t buy it .” Nor should he : in 1999 the US Department of Education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around campuses . “Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to colleges ,” says David Nichols , author of Creating a Safe Campus . “Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation . ”
But getting accurate information isn’t easy . Colleges must report crime statistics （统计数字）by law , but some hold back for fear of bad publicity , leaving the honest ones looking dangerous . “The truth may not always be obvious , ” warns S . Daniel Carter of Security on Campus , Inc , the nation’s leading campus safety watchdog group （监察组织）.
To help concerned parents , Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime issues and effective solutions .
64. The Mahoneys visited quite a few colleges last August ______ .
to express the opinions of many parents
to choose a right one for their daughter
to check the cost of college education
to find a right one near a large city
65. It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crimes because some colleges ______ .
receive too many visitors
mirror the rest of the nation
hide the truth of campus crimes
have too many watchdog groups
66. The underlined word “buy”(in Paragraph 3) means “______” .
mind
admit
believe
expect
67. We learn from the passage that “the honest one” (in Paragraph 4 ) most probably refers to
colleges that ______ .
are protected by campus security
report campus crime by law
are free campus crimes
enjoy very good publicity
68. What does the passage mainly talk about
Exact campus crime statistics .
Crimes on or around campuses .
Effective solutions to campus crimes .
Concerns about campus safety .

One of the ways in which Chinese and American traditions are different is in when we do business . When I first came to China , I was happy when friends came over to visit ; but often surprised when at the end of the visit they asked me for something : some help , some favor . I felt as if they had just been trying to be nice to me so that I would be willing to help them . In a way I felt cheated . Why hadn’t they told me that they were here on business instead of just a visit to see me Now I realized that this is the Chinese way of working .
First you should create a friendly atmosphere , in a sense rebuild the bridge of friendship .The later after you have relaxed , you can do business . In the United States it is often the opposite . Perhaps our behavior can be understood from the saying “Save the best last ”.In the United States we usually do business first and then save the best — our friendly talk — until after .

a Chinese
an American
an Englishman
a Frenchman

71. The writer felt surprised and cheated because ______ .
he only wanted to have a friendly talk
he didn’t want to give any help
the visitors didn’t ask any help at first

the Chinese act in a more direct way
the Americans act in a more direct way
neither the Chinese nor the Americans act in a more direct way
both act in the same direct way
73. Which of the following statements is true
The writer thinks the American way is better .
The writer thinks the Chinese way is better .
The writer thinks the two ways are the same .

We had a discussion about whether it is necessary for us to wear uniform this Monday afternoon . Most of the students think that school uniforms make students look neat and tidy and attractive . Students needn’t worry about fashions . And what’s more , it is easy for teachers to recognize the students of their own school .
However , a few students are against wearing school uniforms . They think school uniforms are expensive . Students look the same and can’t be individuals . They are also fed up with wearing the same clothes every day .
In my opinion , wearing school uniform is good for students and for school’s reputation as well .
