(2)have to可用于多种时态,而must一般用于现在时,其过去时与将来时分别由had to与shall / will have to代替。
(3)在回答must引起的问题时,如果是否定的答复,不能用mustn’t,而要用needn’t或don’t have to,因为mustn’t是“一定不要”、“一定不能”的意思。例如:
1)You must come to the classroom before eight.
2)It is raining hard outside, but I have to leave now.
3)“Must we do it now?” “No, you needn’t.”
6. used to +do, be used to +doing和be used to +do
(1)used to +v意为“过去常常”,“过去一直”;be used to +v-ing / n(名词)意为“习惯于”;be used to +v意为“被用来(做某事)”。
(2)used to只表示过去,而be used to +v-ing / n可表示现在、过去或将来。例如:
1)He used to smoke. Now he doesn’t.
2)He’s quite used to hard work / working hard.
3)The knife is used to cut bread.
7.用作情态动词的其他短语
would rather, would sooner, would (just) as soon, had rather, had better, had sooner, can not but, may (just) as well等可用作情态动词。例如:

1)I would rather you came on Sunday.
2)I would sooner you hadn’t asked
Period 7 Listening and exercise
Step 1 Listening about carvals
1.Introduction of carnivals:
狂欢节(Carnival),世界上不少国家都有狂欢节。这个节日起源于欧洲的中世纪。古希腊和古罗马的木神节、酒神节都可以说是其前身。有些地区还把它称之为谢肉节和忏悔节。该节日曾与复活节有密切关系。复活节前有一个为期40天的大斋期,即四旬斋(lent)。斋期里,人们禁止娱乐,禁食肉食,反省、忏悔以纪念复活节前3天遭难的耶稣,生活肃穆沉闷,于是在斋期开始的前3天里,人们会专门举行宴会、舞会、游行,纵情欢乐,故有"狂欢节"之说。如今已没有多少人坚守大斋期之类的清规戒律,但传统的狂欢活动却保留了下来,成为人们抒民对幸福和自由向往的重要节日。 ???? 欧洲和南美洲地区的人们都庆祝狂欢节。但各地庆祝节日的日期并不相同,一般来说大部分国家都在2月中下旬举行庆祝活动。各国的狂欢节都颇具特色,但总的来说,都是以毫无节制的纵酒饮乐著称。其中最负盛名的要数巴西的狂欢节。

Easter Day occurs on the first Sunday after the full moon following the spring equinox[1].It is originally the day to commemorate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. But now for most people, Easter is a secular spring holiday, while for the children, it means, more than anything else, Easter eggs or chocolate eggs! On Easter Sunday morning, the breakfast eggs are boiled in several pans in some families.Each containing a different vegetable dye, so that when they are served the shells are no longer white or pale brown in color, but yellow or pink, blue or green. The dyes do not penetrate[2] the shell of course. Easter eggs are meant to give enjoyment-- and they do! They are pretty and decorative, they signal good wishes and shared happiness in the changing seasons.

Added material:
Thanksgiving Day
Fourth Thursday in November is celebrated as ‘Thanksgiving Day’ People thank God for his blessings. People can ‘Thank’ friends, foes and anyone for the experiences, happiness and sunshine they bring into their lives. Pilgrims celebrated the first Thanksgiving Day in America during the second winter in the new world. The first winter had been bad as nearly half of the people had perished due to lack of food and bad weather. But the following year, with the help of Indians who showed them how to plant Indian corn, the pilgrims had successful harvest. Governor William Bradford decided that December 13, 1621 be set aside for feasting and prayer. The Indians were invited to share the festival. Since than, Thanksgiving Day is been celebrated in America. However, it was only in 1941, the Congress in a joint resolution named the fourth Sunday in November as the official Thanksgiving Day.
Dating back, it is known that the Council thought to appoint and set apart the 29th day of June, as a day of Solemn Thanksgiving and praise to God for his Goodness and Favour. The First Thanksgiving Proclamation was however on June 20, 1676. The governing council of Charlestown, Massachusetts, held a meeting to determine how best to express thanks for the good fortune that had seen their community securely established. By unanimous vote they instructed Edward Rawson, the clerk, to proclaim June 29 as a day of thanksgiving, It is also known that the Pilgrims set ground at Plymouth Rock on December 11, 1620. Their first winter was devastating. At the beginning of the following fall, they had lost 46 of the original 102 who sailed on the Mayflower. But the harvest of 1621 was a bountiful one. And the remaining colonists decided to celebrate with a feast -- including 91 Indians who had helped the Pilgrims survive their first year. It is believed that the Pilgrims would not have made it through the year without the help of the natives The feast was more of a traditional English harvest festival than a true "thanksgiving" observance. It lasted three days.
Thanksgiving, as we know it today, has come a long way from the Pilgrim's harvest festival in 1621. It is an event that seems, as each year goes by, to reinvent itself and to expand its meaning to larger vistas. Maybe this is the real significance of the occasion; for as we continue to change and grow as a people, there are an increasing number of things for which we can be thankful.
Halloween
The ancient Druids 督伊德教(古代高卢人与不列颠人的一种宗教)的教徒 who inhabited what we now call Great Britain placed great importance on the passing of one season to the next, holding "Fire Festivals" which were celebrated for three days (two days on either side of the day itself). One of these festivals was called Samhain (pronounced Sha-Von) and it took place on October 31 through to November 1. During this period, it was believed that the boundaries between our world and the world of the dead were weakened, allowing spirits of the recently dead to cross over and possess the living. In order to make themselves and their homes less inviting to these wayward spirits, the ancient Celts(凯尔特人)would douse (插入水中, 把弄熄, 弄湿)all their fires. There was also a secondary purpose to this, after extinguishing all their fires, they would re-light them from a common source, the Druidic fire that was kept burning at Usinach, in the Middle of Ireland.
Samhain was considered to be a gateway not only from the land of the dead to the land of the living, but also between Summer and Fall/Winter. For the Druids, this was the last gasp (喘息, 气喘)of summer (it was also the Celtic New Year), so therefore they made sure it went out with a bang before they had to button down (把...弄清楚)for the winter ahead.
They would dress up in bizarre costumes and parade through their villages causing destruction in order to scare off any recently departed souls who might be prowling (巡游)for bodies to inhabit, in addition to burning animals and other offerings to the Druidic deities(神, 神性). It is also a popular belief that they would burn people who they believed to be possessed, but this has largely been debunked (揭穿, 拆穿假面具, 暴露)as myth.
This tradition was later brought to the North American continent by Irish immigrants who were escaping the Potato Famine in their homeland. In addition to the festival itself, the immigrants brought several customs with them, including one of the symbols most commonly associated with Halloween -- the Jack 'O Lantern.
According to Irish folklore, there once lived a man named Jack who was known for being a drunk and a prankster(顽皮的人, 爱开玩笑的人). One night Jack tricked the devil into climbing a tree, and quickly carved an image of a cross on the trunk, trapping the devil. Jack then made him promise that, in exchange for letting him out of the tree, the Devil would never tempt him to sin again. He reluctantly agreed, but was able to exact his revenge upon Jack's death. Because of his mischievous ways in life, Jack was barred from entering heaven and because of his earlier trick, he was also barred from hell. So he was doomed to wander the earth until the end of time, with only a single ember(灰烬, 余烬) (carried in a hollowed out turnip.[植]芜箐, 芜箐甘蓝) to warm him and light his way.
In Ireland, they originally also used turnips for their "Jack Lanterns", but upon arriving in the new world, they discovered that pumpkins were abundant and easier to carve out.
Easter
On Good Friday, Jesus Christ was executed by crucifixion. His body was taken down from the cross, and buried in a cave. The tomb was guarded and an enormous stone was put over the entrance, so that no-one could steal the body. On the following Sunday, some women visited the grave and found that the stone had been moved, and that the tomb was empty. Jesus himself was seen that day, and for days afterwards by many people. His followers realised that God had raised Jesus from the dead. Hot Cross Buns Hot Cross buns are still made all over England around Easter time. At one time, buns with a cross on them were made all through Lent. They were banned by Oliver Cromwell and brought back again at the time of the Restoration. For a time they were only available on Good Friday but now they can be bought during the month leading up to Easter. Whole meal hot cross buns are becoming more popular each year.
The Easter Egg
As with the Easter Bunny and the holiday itself, the Easter Egg predates the Christian holiday of Easter. The exchange of eggs in the springtime is a custom that was centuries old when Easter was first celebrated by Christians.
From the earliest times, the egg was a symbol of rebirth in most cultures. Eggs were often wrapped in gold leaf or, if you were a peasant, colored brightly by boiling them with the leaves or petals of certain flowers.
Today, children hunt colored eggs and place them in Easter baskets along with the modern version of real Easter eggs -- those made of plastic or chocolate candy.
O-bon Festival
Bon Dance
During o-bon, bon odori (folk dances) are held all over Japan. The kind of dance varies from area to area. People wearing yukata (summer kimono) go to the neighborhood shrine, temple, or park and dance around a yagura (stage) set up there. Anyone can participate in the dance. Join the circle and imitate what others are doing. Awa odori of Tokushima and bon odori at Yasukuni Shrine, Tokyo are very famous.
Also, Toro Nagashi (floating paper lanterns) are held in some areas. On the evening of the 15th, people send off ancestor's spirits with a paper lantern, lit by a candle inside and floated down a river to the ocean. Fireworks displays (Hanabi-taikai) are often held during o-bon. It is a typical Japanese summer scene to see hanabi.
Since o-bon is an important family gathering time, many people return to their hometowns during o-bon. Most businesses are closed during this time. Although it is crowded everywhere, it is common for many people take trips during o-bon, too. The beginning and end of o-bon are marked with terrible traffic jams. Airports, train stations, and highways are jammed with travelers. I recommend you do not travel around o-bon!

Halloween is on the last day of October. On that day people dress up in different masks and costumes, and, carrying lanterns made of pumpkin, they go trick or treating.I like the part of trick or treat best. When some kids say trick or treat to you, you’d better treat them or otherwise they’ll play some kind of trick on you. So usually people give candy to them.
I celebrated my first Halloween in our school and we had a big and special party for it. Everybody put on a mask. I dressed like a “long-tongue ghost.” I think I was very scary looking. My classmate Banyi dressed like a princess. She was so beautiful.
Oh, I almost forgot! Before the party, I carved a pumpkin – my first jack-o-lantern. First, I cut open the top of the pumpkin, and removed the seeds out. It was sticky and smelly. Next, I carved the eyes, the nose, and the mouth. Finally I put a candle inside. I thought it was very cute.
I like Halloween very much .It is one of my favorite holidays because I get to play games and have fun. I think the person who invented Halloween was a genius!

The origin of Valentine’s Day
By Dustin
情人节,又称“圣瓦伦丁节”。起源于古代罗马,于每年2月14日举行,现已成为欧美各国青年人喜爱的节日。
The origin of Valentine’s Day couldn’t be proved historically, and here is one of the stories.
Saint Valentine is the name of a great priest during the reign of Emperor Claudius. At that time Emperor Claudius found it difficult to get soldiers. He believed the reason was that Roman men did not want to leave their wives or families, so he declared that no more marriages could be performed and all engagements were cancelled.
Valentine thought this to be unfair and secretly married several couples, for which finally he was put in prison. There he cured a jailer’s blind daughter, which made Claudius angry and he was executed on February 14, 270 AD. Before his execution, he sent her a note saying, “From your Valentine”. The phrase is still widely used on Valentine’s Day today.
In 496 AD, Pope Gelasius declared February 14 the Valentine’s Day, a day for celebrating love, in the name of St. Valentine. But it was not until 1537 that St. Valentine’s day became an official holiday by England’s King Henry VIII. It was another century and a half before religious cards became non-religious cards to reflect the change in the holiday.
From then on, in memory of Saint Valentine, every year on February 14th is Valentine’s Day, a day for celebrating love.
Open question:
1. After your reading of the story, what do you think the word “love” contains?
2. When did the cards used on Valentine’s Day become non-religious?

The Origin of Chinese New Year
Traditions of the Chinese New Year
A Chinese Calendar Converter
When is the Chinese New Year
It may sound wierd, but it is true. Except for a very few number of people who can keep track of when the Chinese New Year should be, the majority of the Chinese today have to rely on a typical Chinese calendar to tell it. Therefore, you cannot talk of the Chinese New Year without mentioning the Chinese calendar at first.
A Chinese calendar (Click here to see an example) consists of both the Gregorian and a lunar-solar calendrical systems, with the latter dividing a year into twelve month each of which is in turn equally divided into thirty-nine and a half days. The well-coordinated dual system calendar reflects the Chinese ingenuity.
Besides the two calendrical systems, a Chinese calendar will not be complete without a twenty-four solar terms closely related to the changes of Nature -- a very useful tool for farmers, providing information on the proper time for planting and harvesting.
The Twenty-Four Terms
The first fifteen days of the Chinese lunar month makes the first term, namely:
Beginning of Spring
usually starting from the fourth or fifth of Febrary. And the first day is the Chinese New Year's Day or the onset of the Spring Festival. Incidentally, the New Year's Day of 1995 is January 31st.
The second fifteen days are named:
Rain Water
from the nineteeth or twentieth of Febrary, a time when rainy seasons are setting in.
In order come the following terms:
Waking of Insects
from the fifth or sixth of March, as the earth awakes from hibernation;
Spring Equinox
from the twentieth or twenty-first of March;
Pure Brightness
from the fourth or fifth of April;
Grain Rain
from the twentieth or twenty-first of April;
Beginning of Summer
from the fifth or sixth of May;
Grain Full
from the twentieth or twenty-first of May;
Grain in Ear
from the fifth or sixth of June;
Summer Solstice
from the twenty-first or second of June;
Slight Heat
from the sixth or seventh of July;
Great Heat
from the twenty-second or third of July;
Beginning of Autumn
from the seventh or eighth of August;
Limit of Heat
from the twenty-third or fourth of August;
White Dew
from the seventh or eighth of September;
Autumnal Equinox
from the twenty-third or fourth of September;
Cold Dew
from the eighth or nineth of October;
Frost's Descent
from the twentieth-three or fourth of October;
Beginning of Winter
from the seventh or eighth of November;
Slight Snow
from the twenty-second or third of November;
Great Snow
from the seventh or eighth of December;
Winter Solstice
from the twenty-second or third of December;
Slight Cold
from the fifth or sixth of January; and lastly
Great Cold
from the twentieth or twenty-first of January which brings the 24-term cycle to an end.
On the Chinese Calendar, you will also find terminology like Tian Gan and Di Zhi (Heavenly Stem and Earthly Branch), a peculiar Chinese way of marking the years in a sixty-year cycle. There is also a system that marks the years in a twelve-year cycle, naming each of them after an animal such as Rat, Ox, Tiger, Hare, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Boar. BTW, I was born in the year of Sheep.
The Origin of Chinese New Year
The Chinese New Year is now popularly known as the Spring Festival because it starts from the Begining of Spring (the first of the twenty-four terms in coodination with the changes of Nature). Its origin is too old to be traced. Several explanations are hanging around. All agree, however, that the word Nian, which in modern Chinese solely means "year", was originally the name of a monster beast that started to prey on people the night before the beginning of a new year (Do not lose track here: we are talking about the new year in terms of the Chinese calendar).
One legend goes that the beast Nian had a very big mouth that would swallow a great many people with one bite. People were very scared. One day, an old man came to their rescue, offering to subdue Nian. To Nian he said, "I hear say that you are very capable, but can you swallow the other beasts of prey on earth instead of people who are by no means of your worthy opponents?" So, swollow it did many of the beasts of prey on earth that also harrassed people and their domestic animals from time to time.
After that, the old man disappeared riding the beast Nian. He turned out to be an immortal god. Now that Nian is gone and other beasts of prey are also scared into forests, people begin to enjoy their peaceful life. Before the old man left, he had told people to put up red paper decorations on their windows and doors at each year's end to scare away Nian in case it sneaked back again, because red is the color the beast feared the most.
From then on, the tradition of observing the conquest of Nian is carried on from generation to generation. The term "Guo Nian", which may mean "Survive the Nian" becomes today "Celebrate the (New) Year" as the word "guo" in Chinese having both the meaning of "pass-over" and "observe". The custom of putting up red paper and firing fire-crackers to scare away Nian should it have a chance to run loose is still around. However, people today have long forgotten why they are doing all this, except that they feel the color and the sound add to the excitement of the celebration.
Traditions of Chinese New Year
Even though the climax of the Chinese New Year, Nian, lasts only two or three days including the New Year's Eve, the New Year season extends from the mid-twelfth month of the previous year to the middle of the first month of the new year. A month from the New Year, it is a good time for business. People will pour out their money to buy presents, decoration material, food and clothing. Transportation department, railroad in particular, is nervously waiting for the onslaught of swarms of travellers who take their days off around the New Year to rush back home for a family renunion from all parts of the country.
Days before the New Year, every family is busy giving its house a thorough cleaning, hoping to sweep away all the ill-fortune there may have been in the family to make way for the wishful in-coming good luck. People also give their doors and window-panes a new paint, usually in red color. They decorate the doors and windows with paper-cuts and couplets with the very popular theme of "happiness", "wealth", "logevity" and "satisfactory marriage with more children". Paintings of the same theme are put up in the house on top of the newly mounted wall paper. In the old days, various kinds of food are tributed at the alta of ancestors.
The Eve of the New Year is very carefully observed. Supper is a feast, with all members coming together. One of the most popular course is jiaozi, dumplings boiled in water. "Jiaozi" in Chinese literally mean "sleep together and have sons", a long-lost good wish for a family. After dinner, it is time for the whole family to sit up for the night while having fun playing cards or board games or watching TV programs dedicated to the ocassion. Every light is supposed to be kept on the whole night. At midnight, the whole sky will be lit up by fireworks and firecrackers make everywhere seem like a war zone. People's excitement reach its zenith.
Very early the next morning, children greet their parents and receive their presents in terms of cash wrapped up in red paper packages from them. Then, the family start out to say greetings from door to door, first their relatives and then their neighbors. It is a great time for reconciliation. Old grudges are very easily cast away during the greetings. The air is permeated with warmth and friendliness. During and several days following the New Year's day, people are visiting each other, with a great deal of exchange of gifs. The New Year atmosphere is brought to an anti-climax fifteen days away where the Festival of Lanterns sets in. It is an occasion of lantern shows and folk dances everywhere. One typical food is the Tang Yuan, another kind of dumplings made of sweet rice rolled into balls and stuffed with either sweet or spicy fillings.
The Lantern Festival marks the end of the New Year season and afterwards life becomes daily routines once again. This description is based upon the recollection of my own experience. Customs of observing the New Year vary from place to place, considering that China is a big country not only geographically, but also demographically and ethnically. Yet, the spirit underlying the diverse celebrations of the Chinese New Year is the same: a sincere wish of peace and happiness for the family members and friends.

But try as he might he could not make out any of it apart from one paragraph 19 that on the Black Sea shores existed a pebble(鹅卵石) that could turn anything into gold.This pebble,some 20 said,unlike all the others,was warm to touch.Suddenly a strong 21 struck deep roots in his mind that he would go to 22 the shores for the pebble,and so he did.
From dawn to dusk he would pick up pebbles and 23 them.To ensure he did not pick the same pebble twice,he would throw every picked pebble far out into the sea.
Searches 24 days,weeks and then months.A year passed and then another, 25 every pebble he picked up was as cold as ice and he cast them away as 26 as he picked them.Now he had become so 27 at it that he could pick up a pebble and cast it with one 28 action.
At last he was bored with such 29 searches and nearly disappointed,doubting whether there was really such a pebble.
One evening as he was 30 his worn-out legs,leaving the beach after a whole day’s aimless search,he saw a 31 pebble in front of him.”This will be the last one!”said the man hopelessly.With a sigh he 32 and picked it up with his spent hand.Not until he gathered all his
33 and threw it farther into the sea did he 34 that it was warm and even a little 35 ,but it was too late.

People in the United States honor their parents with two special days:Mother’s Day,on the second Sunday in May,and Father’s Day,on the third Sunday in June.These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents.They raise their children and educate them to be responsible(有责任感的) citizens.They give love and care.These two days make us think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers.More mothers now work outside the home.More fathers must help with child care.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways.On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother.A white one shows that the mother is dead.Many people attend religious services to honor parents.It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(墓地).On these days families get together at home,as well as in restaurants.They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day.These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts.Children make them in school.Many people make their own presents.These are valued more than the ones bought in stores.It is not the value of the gift that is important,but it is “the thought that counts”.

Conjoined twins lead separate but active lives.
Lori and Reba have never been alone and they want to keep it that way.
The 40-year-old conjoined twins in Pennsylvania,US,have read about others locked together by an accident of birth who have been medically separated.But they insist only death can part them.
“We’ve never imagined a life divided,”Lori said.

Today, we send millions of Christmas cards every year. But in fact the Christmas card is a relatively modern invention.
In the Middle Ages, European wood engravers (雕刻师)produced prints with religious themes. But the first real Christmas card, as we understand the term today, was designed in London, England in 1840. It went on sale in 1843. The designer was John Callott Horsley, a well- known British painter and member of the Royal Academy. He designed the card at the suggestion of his friend Sir Henry Cole, who was the first director of the Victoria & Albert Museum. Horsley produced 1,000 cards and offered them for sale at 1s (one shilling) each. They were printed on stiff card and coloured by hand, with the greeting: “A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to You”. The card shows three pictures: in the center, a family party; to one side the hungry receiving food; to the other side the poor being clothed. Puritans (清教徒)immediately denounced the card, since it showed people drinking in the family party. But with most people the idea was a great success and the Christmas card quickly became very popular.
??? Christmas cards were not the first greetings cards. Since 1796, with improvements in printing, merchants had been sending cards to their customers offering “best wishes” for the new year. In many countries, Christmas cards gradually became even more popular than New Year’s cards.
??? As Christmas is the birthday of Jesus Christ, cards often show scenes of His nativity. Others show images connected with Christmas such as wintry scenes of snow-laden pine, Father Christmas card is “Merry Christmas”, but many other greetings are also used, such as “Happy Xmas” or “Happy Noel”.
63. What would be the best title of the text?
A.????? The famous British painter and director.
B.????? Pictures and greetings on Christmas cards.
C.????? Invention and design of the first Christmas cards.
D.???? History and characteristics of the Christmas cards.
64. The underlined word “denounced” in the second paragraph probably means _____.
A. praised?? B. doubted?? C. blamed?? D. preferred
65. We can conclude from the text that _____.
A.????? Horsley sold his first Christmas cards for 50 pounds
B.????? Santa Claus was born on Christmas Day
C.????? now there are more greetings on New Year’s cards
D.???? merchants were the first to send Christmas cards to their customers
66. The text is written to introduce to us _____.
A.????? Father Christmas and John Horsley
B.????? the greeting cards
C.????? the Christmas cards
D.???? the New Year’s cards

Specialists say it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock”is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists. In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment. Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to their surrounding and, as a result, enjoy their life more.
??? There are some obvious factors(因素)in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems-the telephones, post office, or transportation-may be difficult to work out. The simplest things seem to be big problems. The language may be difficult.
??? Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without any identify(身份). They have to build a new self-image.
??? Culture shock gives rise to a feeling of disorientation(迷失方向). This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security(安全). This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short time, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience-these are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.
? 67. When people move to a new country, they _________.
??? A. will get used to their new surroundings with difficulty
??? B. have well prepared for the new surroundings
??? C. will get used to the culture of the country quickly
??? D. will never be familiar with culture of the country
? 68. According to the passage, factors that give rise to culture shock include all of the following except __________.
??? A. language communication
??? B. weather conditions and customs
??? C. public service systems
??? D. homesickness
?69. According to the passage, the more successful you are at home, ________.
??? A. the fewer difficulties you may have abroad
??? B. the more difficulties you may have abroad
??? C. the more money you will earn abroad
??? D. the less homesick you may feel abroad
? 70. The writer tells us that the best way to overcome culture shock is to _______.
??? A. protect ourselves from unfamiliar environment
??? B. develop a strange sense of self-protection
??? C. get familiar with new culture
D. return to our own country

If you fly non-stop across Canada from Newfoundland in the east to British Columbia in the west, you can arrive before you set out, that is, by the time shown on clocks in British Columbia. Canada is such a big country that people in British Columbia may be having their breakfast while those in Newfoundland are perhaps already beginning their lunch. So the country is divided into five time zones, each an hour behind in time from the west zones to the east. For example, when it is 12 noon Atlantic Time in Newfoundland and the Madritime Provinces, it is 11a.m. Eastern time in most of Quebec and Ontario. Winnipeg, Manitoba, lies in the middle of the Central Time Zone, here it is 10 a.m. In most of the Prairies and the eastern half the mountains it is 9 a.m. Mountain Time while the west coast region has Pacific Time and it is 8 a.m.
5. The underlined word “non-stop” in the first sentence may mean ____.
to stop everywhere
no stopping in Canada
without stopping before the final stop
to stop in Newfoundland
6. Which of the following is not the name of a place in Canada?
A. British Columbia. B. Newfoundland.
C. Quebec. D. Atlantic Time.
7. According to the passage, the place named Quebec is to the ___ of the place named Winnipeg.
A. east B. west C. south D. north
C.
If you dream of going someplace warm to escape the cold winter weather, a trip to a recently discovered planet would certainly warm you right up. The planet, named OCLE-TR-56b, has temperatures of more than 3,000 °F. “This is the hottest planet we know about,” says Dr. Dimitar Sasselov, a scientist who led the discovery team. “It is hot enough to have an iron fog and to rain hot iron droplets(细沫).”
The new planet is 30 times farther away than any planet discovered by scientists before. It is in the Milky Way but it is not in our solar system. The new planet moves around a star much like our sun, however. Scientists discovered the planet by using a new planet-searching method, called “transit technique”. They were able to catch sight of the planet when it moved in front of its star, causing the star’s light to dim. Scientists compare the method to discovering the shadow of a bee flying in front of a searchlight 200 miles away. “We believe the door has been opened wide to go and discover planets like Earth,” says Sasselov.
8. We can infer from the passage that____.
A. there is iron on the new planet
B. we could go to the new planet in winter
C. the star could block our view of the new planet
D. scientists are studying the weather on the new planet
9. The “transit technique” can_____.
help dim the light of a star
B. help scientists with a searchlight
C .help discover a bee on a planet
D .help find a planet moving before its star
10. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. New Planet-searching Technique
B. New Distant Discovery
C. Space Searching
Dream Planet
