If you are ever lucky to be invited to a formal dinner party in Paris, remember that the French have their own way of doing things, and that even your finest manners may not be "correct" by French custom. For example, if you think showing up promptly at the time given on the invitation, armed with gifts of wine and roses, complimenting your hostess on her cooking, laughing heartily at the host's jokes and then leaping up to help the hostess will make you the perfect guest, think again. Here Madame Nora Chabal, the marketing director of the Ritz Hotel in Paris, explained how it works. The first duty of the guest is to respond to the invitation within 48 hours. And, the guest may not ask to bring a guest because the hostess has chosen her own. Flowers sent in advance are the preferred gift. They may also be sent afterwards with a thank - you note. It is considered a very bad form to arrive with a gift of flowers in hand, there by forcing the hostess to deal with finding a vase when she is too busy to do that. See, that's the logic! The type of flowers sent has a code of its own, too. One must never send Chrysanthemums because they are considered too humble a flower for occasion. Carnations are considered bad luck, and calla lilies are too reminiscent(令人联想) of funerals (葬礼). A bouquet of red roses is a declaration of romantic intent. Don't send those unless you mean it,---- and never to a married hostess. And though the French love wine, you must never bring a bottle to a dinner party. Why, it's as if you feared your hosts would not have enough wine on hand, and that's an insult. You. may, however, offer a box of chocolates which the hostess will pass after dinner with coffee. If an invitation is for eight o'clock, the considerate guest arrives at 8: l5. Guests who arrive exactly on time or early are mere thoughtless ones who are not giving the hostess those last few minutes she needs to deal with details and crises. The "correct" guest arrives between l5 to 20 minutes after the hour because dinner will be served exactly 30 minutes past the time on the invitation.
46. Which of the following statements is right according to the French custom? A. When you receive an invitation, reply to it within two days. You'd better send flowers in advance. B. Arrive exactly on time at the dinner party. C. Bring a bottle of good wine to the dinner party. D. Telephone to ask if you could bring a good friend to the party. 47. Which of the following is right about sending flowers? A. If someone is dead, send chrysanthemums or calla lilies. B. If someone is ill in hospital, send carnations. C. If you are invited to a dinner party, send red roses to the hostess. D. If you are in love with someone, send red roses. 48. If you are too busy to send flowers in advance, what should you do? A. Bring a bouquet of flowers when you go to the party. B. Send a bouquet of flowers afterwards with a thank -you note. C. Bring a bottle of wine instead of a bouquet of flowers. D. The hostess will never mind if you send flowers or not. 49. What does the word "considerate" in the last paragraph mean ? A. 尊敬的 B. 值得考虑的 C. 考虑周到的 D. 相当多的 50. What is the passage mainly about ? A. How to hold a dinner party.
B. How to send flowers.
C. Good manners at a French dinner party.
D. Different countries have different manners.

The Atlantic Ocean is one of the oceans that separate the Old World from the New. For centuries it kept the Americas from being discovered by the people of Europe. The Atlantic Ocean is only half as big as the pacific, but it is still very large. It is more than 4,000 miles (6,000 km) wide where Columbus crossed it. Even at its narrowest it is about 2,000 miles (3,200 km) wide. There is so much water in the Atlantic that it is hard to imagine how much there is. But suppose no more rain fell into and no more water was brought to it by rivers. It would take the ocean about 4,000 years to dry up. On the average the water is a little more than 2 miles (3.2 km) deep, but in places it is much deeper. The deepest spot is near Puerto Rico. This "deep" measures 30,246 feet --- almost six miles (9.6 km). Several hundred miles eastward from Florida there is a part of the ocean called the Sargasso Sea. Here the water is quiet, for there is little wind. Today the Atlantic is a great highway. It is not, however, always a smooth and safe one. Storms sweep across it and pile up great waves. icebergs float down from the Far North across the paths of ships. we now have such fast ways of travelling that this big ocean seems to have grown smaller. Columbus sailed for more than two months to cross it. a fast modern steamship can make the trip in less than four days. airplanes fly from New York to London in only eight hours and from South America to Africa in four!
51. From the third paragraph, we can learn that ______ . A. the Atlantic will dry up in 4,000 years' time B. no river flows into the Atlantic ocean C. it's hard to imagine how much water there is in the Atlantic ocean D. the Ocean floor is rather flat 52. How far did Columbus cover when he crossed the Atlantic ? A. 4,000 miles B. 4,000 km C. 2,000 miles D. 2,000 km 53. Suppose it's February 27th, 2000. You take a steamship to cross the Atlantic to North America, when will you probably get there / A. On march 2nd B. On March 3rd
C. on February 28th D. In eight hours' time
54. The distance between South America and Africa across the ocean is probably _____ the distance between New York and London. A. as far as B. half as far as
C. twice as far as D. one-third as far as 55. What can you learn from the last paragraph of the passage ? A. The Atlantic has grown smaller than it used to be. B. The Atlantic had grown wider than it used to be. C. Fast ways of travelling make the ocean grow smaller. D. Fast ways of travelling make the ocean seem to grow smaller.
D
In sports the sex (性别)are separate. women and men do not run or swim in the same races. Women are less strong than men. that at least is what people say. Women are called "the weaker sex ", or if men want to please them, "the fair sex". But boys and girls are taught at schools and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists and writers. And women live longer than men. A European woman expect to live until the age of 74; a man only until he is 68. are women's bodies really weaker? The fastest men can run a mile in under 4 minutes. The best women need 5 minutes. Women's times are always slower than men's, but some facts are a surprise. One of them swam 40 metres in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16. The first "Tartan" in films was an Olympic swimmer, Johnny Weissmuller. His fastest 400 metres was 4 minutes 59.1 seconds, which is 37.9 second slower than a girl 50 years later! The does not mean that women are catching men up. Conditions are very different now, and sport is much more serious. It is so serious that some women are given hormone injections(注射激素). At the Olympics a doctor has to check whether the women are really women or not. It seems sad that sport has such problems. Life can be very complicated(复杂的) when there are two separate sexes.
56. Why are women called "the weaker sex" ? A. Women can live longer than men. B. People usually think women are weaker than men. C. Women cannot finish the same tasks as men. D. There are two different sexes. 57. Which of the following is NOT true ? A. Women do not run or swim in races with men. B. Once a girl swam much faster than Johnny Weissmuller did. C. Famous Prime ministers are women. D. Men cannot live longer than women in Europe 58. This passage tells us _______. A. Johnny Weissmuller ran slower than a girl in a race B. Johnny Weissmuller won the race as he was then much younger than other runners C. Johnny Weissmuller didn't swim in the same race with the girl D. The girl, whose fastest 400 metres was 4 minutes 21.2 seconds, was an Olympic swimmer 59. The problem that sport has now is that _______. A. some men are not actually men B. some women are given hormone injections C. women don't have the same chances to swim the 100-metre and 200-metre dashes D. it's hard to check wether women are really women 60. In this passage the writer implies that ______. A. women are weaker than men, but faster B. women are slower than men, but stronger C. men are not always stronger and faster than women D. women are catching men up now

If you are ever lucky to be invited to a formal dinner party in Paris, remember that the French have their own way of doing things, and that even your finest manners may not be "correct" by French custom. For example, if you think showing up promptly at the time given on the invitation, armed with gifts of wine and roses, complimenting your hostess on her cooking, laughing heartily at the host's jokes and then leaping up to help the hostess will make you the perfect guest, think again. Here Madame Nora Chabal, the marketing director of the Ritz Hotel in Paris, explained how it works. The first duty of the guest is to respond to the invitation within 48 hours. And, the guest may not ask to bring a guest because the hostess has chosen her own. Flowers sent in advance are the preferred gift. They may also be sent afterwards with a thank - you note. It is considered a very bad form to arrive with a gift of flowers in hand, there by forcing the hostess to deal with finding a vase when she is too busy to do that. See, that's the logic! The type of flowers sent has a code of its own, too. One must never send Chrysanthemums because they are considered too humble a flower for occasion. Carnations are considered bad luck, and calla lilies are too reminiscent(令人联想) of funerals (葬礼). A bouquet of red roses is a declaration of romantic intent. Don't send those unless you mean it,---- and never to a married hostess. And though the French love wine, you must never bring a bottle to a dinner party. Why, it's as if you feared your hosts would not have enough wine on hand, and that's an insult. You. may, however, offer a box of chocolates which the hostess will pass after dinner with coffee. If an invitation is for eight o'clock, the considerate guest arrives at 8: l5. Guests who arrive exactly on time or early are mere thoughtless ones who are not giving the hostess those last few minutes she needs to deal with details and crises. The "correct" guest arrives between l5 to 20 minutes after the hour because dinner will be served exactly 30 minutes past the time on the invitation.
46. Which of the following statements is right according to the French custom? A. When you receive an invitation, reply to it within two days. You'd better send flowers in advance. B. Arrive exactly on time at the dinner party. C. Bring a bottle of good wine to the dinner party. D. Telephone to ask if you could bring a good friend to the party. 47. Which of the following is right about sending flowers? A. If someone is dead, send chrysanthemums or calla lilies. B. If someone is ill in hospital, send carnations. C. If you are invited to a dinner party, send red roses to the hostess. D. If you are in love with someone, send red roses. 48. If you are too busy to send flowers in advance, what should you do? A. Bring a bouquet of flowers when you go to the party. B. Send a bouquet of flowers afterwards with a thank -you note. C. Bring a bottle of wine instead of a bouquet of flowers. D. The hostess will never mind if you send flowers or not. 49. What does the word "considerate" in the last paragraph mean ? A. 尊敬的 B. 值得考虑的 C. 考虑周到的 D. 相当多的 50. What is the passage mainly about ? A. How to hold a dinner party.
B. How to send flowers.
C. Good manners at a French dinner party.
D. Different countries have different manners.

The Atlantic Ocean is one of the oceans that separate the Old World from the New. For centuries it kept the Americas from being discovered by the people of Europe. The Atlantic Ocean is only half as big as the pacific, but it is still very large. It is more than 4,000 miles (6,000 km) wide where Columbus crossed it. Even at its narrowest it is about 2,000 miles (3,200 km) wide. There is so much water in the Atlantic that it is hard to imagine how much there is. But suppose no more rain fell into and no more water was brought to it by rivers. It would take the ocean about 4,000 years to dry up. On the average the water is a little more than 2 miles (3.2 km) deep, but in places it is much deeper. The deepest spot is near Puerto Rico. This "deep" measures 30,246 feet --- almost six miles (9.6 km). Several hundred miles eastward from Florida there is a part of the ocean called the Sargasso Sea. Here the water is quiet, for there is little wind. Today the Atlantic is a great highway. It is not, however, always a smooth and safe one. Storms sweep across it and pile up great waves. icebergs float down from the Far North across the paths of ships. we now have such fast ways of travelling that this big ocean seems to have grown smaller. Columbus sailed for more than two months to cross it. a fast modern steamship can make the trip in less than four days. airplanes fly from New York to London in only eight hours and from South America to Africa in four!

In sports the sex (性别)are separate. women and men do not run or swim in the same races. Women are less strong than men. that at least is what people say. Women are called "the weaker sex ", or if men want to please them, "the fair sex". But boys and girls are taught at schools and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists and writers. And women live longer than men. A European woman expect to live until the age of 74; a man only until he is 68. are women's bodies really weaker? The fastest men can run a mile in under 4 minutes. The best women need 5 minutes. Women's times are always slower than men's, but some facts are a surprise. One of them swam 40 metres in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16. The first "Tartan" in films was an Olympic swimmer, Johnny Weissmuller. His fastest 400 metres was 4 minutes 59.1 seconds, which is 37.9 second slower than a girl 50 years later! The does not mean that women are catching men up. Conditions are very different now, and sport is much more serious. It is so serious that some women are given hormone injections(注射激素). At the Olympics a doctor has to check whether the women are really women or not. It seems sad that sport has such problems. Life can be very complicated(复杂的) when there are two separate sexes.

Johnny Weissmuller won the race as he was then much younger than other runners C. Johnny Weissmuller didn't swim in the same race with the girl D. The girl, whose fastest 400 metres was 4 minutes 21.2 seconds, was an Olympic swimmer 59. The problem that sport has now is that _______. A. some men are not actually men B. some women are given hormone injections C. women don't have the same chances to swim the 100-metre and 200-metre dashes D. it's hard to check wether women are really women 60.
