一、阅读理解
The influence of America is increasing in my country. Spanish people drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day.
I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies. Most of the programs and documentaries (纪录片) we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood.
In the last few years, the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies. Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from other countries in Europe.
American culture is a part of Spanish life now. It’s certain that many things from America are as much a part of people’s lives as Spanish things. For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. I’ve known about Coca Cola for my whole life. However, it’s different with Western fast food. For example, I don’t think McDonald’s is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people. The Spanish people normally eat at home.
On the other hand, maybe McDonald’s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas. It’s true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald’s, and it is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, it’s obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives every day.
1. From the first paragraph we can know that ____.
A. the influence of America on Spain can be found everywhere
B. most Spanish people don’t like to listen to their own music
C. fast food spreads from Spain to the United States
D. some Spanish actors go to America to improve their acting skills
2. What plays an important part in the spreading of American culture in Spain?
A. American novels. B. Hollywood movies.
C. McDonald’s. D. American music.
3. Why did the government set some rules for the films shown in Spain?
A. To protect foreign culture in Spain.
B. To earn more money from Spanish films.
C. To limit the number of foreign movies.
D. To unite the European Community.
4. Why does the author think that McDonald’s is not as successful as it is in other countries?
A. Its fast food contains too much fat.
B. He thinks it is unhealthy.
C. Spanish people seldom eat out.
D. Spanish adults don’t like its fast food.
5. What do you think Spanish tapas might be?
A. The name of a drink.
B. The name of a restaurant.
C. A clothing brand.
D. A certain kind of food.
二、短文改错（共有10处错误）
The first place I suggest you would visit is the Great Wall, which is said to be one of the wonder in the world. It has history of more than twenty centuries. It is amazed to see such a huge wall that was made entire by hand. Another place worth visiting is the Palace Museum it was built in 1406. Twenty-four different emperors had once lived there. You can learn a lot about Chinese history by visiting this palace. What a pity when you can’t stay longer, or you could visit many other place such as the Summer Palace or Beihai Park.

二、短文改错（共有10处错误）
The first place I suggest you would visit is the Great Wall, which is said to be one of the wonder in the world. It has history of more than twenty centuries. It is amazed to see such a huge wall that was made entire by hand. Another place worth visiting is the Palace Museum it was built in 1406. Twenty-four different emperors had once lived there. You can learn a lot about Chinese history by visiting this palace. What a pity when you can’t stay longer, or you could visit many other place such as the Summer Palace or Beihai Park.

Dad is a liar(说谎者)certainly.

He’s the 3 man I have ever met, who never hurts others, as well as the cruelest man, for he’s always hard on himself. Every time I phoned home from college and asked Dad how his 4 was getting on, he would always reply, “Oh, couldn’t be 5 !” When I asked my mum the same question on the phone, 6 , she honestly told me every 7 with Dad’s business. I didn’t blame Dad for his 8 . Instead I showed concern for him.
Dad is a miser(吝啬鬼), undoubtedly.
I hardly see Dad wear 9 clothes. In fact, his closet(衣橱)is half empty. Even in this half, two-thirds is occupied by Mum’s clothes and the other one-third belongs to him. I 10 him to buy some new clothes, 11 he simply shook his head, “The old clothes are still good enough.”
Were they? I saw holes in them!
It tore my heart up when I saw Dad cough terribly with his hand covering his 12 .When the pains became very serious, he 13 took some medicine.
So it surprised 14 when the day came that Dad got sick. He was lying in bed, and all the family gathered around him. I knelt by his bedside, tears filling my eyes.

二、阅读理解
In October on the east coast of Australia migrating(迁徙)humpback whales(座头鲸)pass very close to the shore. With the help of Max Egan, we went to film them near Byron Bay. It was extremely exciting to spot the little puffs(水柱)of spray on the horizon. When migrating, the whales can be traveling at speeds of about 12km/h and can dive under anywhere between five and forty minutes, but with many years of experience Max usually guided our boat to exactly the right place to provide us with amazing sighting. As the whales break the surface like submarines(潜水艇), the water spills off their broad dark backs and huge tails. Then, with a powerful down stroke, they dive back into the depths of the sea, leaving just a smooth glassy patch of water or “footprint” on the surface to show where they had been.
One day we had traveled up and down the shore and far out to the sea in search of whales, but the horizon was deserted. There was no report of whales in the area so we decided to test out Max's new, highly sensitive hydrophone(水中听音器)and the result was astonishing. As soon as the hydrophone was in the water, we found ourselves listening to the most beautiful voices. What may have seemed like a vast empty ocean was filled with the singing of whales.
It is the males which sing, as they migrate between feeding and breeding(养育)grounds. No one knows for sure what the purpose of these songs is, whether they are love songs to the females or warnings to other males to stay away.
It was thought that each population of humpbacks had its own song which remained regular but recent findings suggest that the whales appreciate a memorable tune(曲调)and quickly adopt any new songs they hear.
1. Which finding about whales is beyond the writer's expectation?
A. The little puffs. B. The songs of whales.
C. The traveling speed of whales. D. The depth of the whale's dive.
2. What do we know about Max?
A. He likes whales very much.
B. He is a brave scientist on whales.
C. He is an experienced man in finding whales.
D. He is an expert in making hydrophones.
3. The writer's main purpose of looking for whales is______.
A. carrying out research on whales
B. studying the beautiful songs of whales
C. making films about whales
D. hunting whales for research

Dad is a liar(说谎者)certainly.
He never tells the truth about anything bad, or anything that he thinks is 1 to me, even though I’ve told him that I don’t 2 hearing these things.
He’s the 3 man I have ever met, who never hurts others, as well as the cruelest man, for he’s always hard on himself. Every time I phoned home from college and asked Dad how his 4 was getting on, he would always reply, “Oh, couldn’t be 5 !” When I asked my mum the same question on the phone, 6 , she honestly told me every 7 with Dad’s business.

二、阅读理解
In October on the east coast of Australia migrating(迁徙)humpback whales(座头鲸)pass very close to the shore. With the help of Max Egan, we went to film them near Byron Bay. It was extremely exciting to spot the little puffs(水柱)of spray on the horizon. When migrating, the whales can be traveling at speeds of about 12km/h and can dive under anywhere between five and forty minutes, but with many years of experience Max usually guided our boat to exactly the right place to provide us with amazing sighting. As the whales break the surface like submarines(潜水艇), the water spills off their broad dark backs and huge tails. Then, with a powerful down stroke, they dive back into the depths of the sea, leaving just a smooth glassy patch of water or “footprint” on the surface to show where they had been.
One day we had traveled up and down the shore and far out to the sea in search of whales, but the horizon was deserted. There was no report of whales in the area so we decided to test out Max's new, highly sensitive hydrophone(水中听音器)and the result was astonishing. As soon as the hydrophone was in the water, we found ourselves listening to the most beautiful voices. What may have seemed like a vast empty ocean was filled with the singing of whales.
It is the males which sing, as they migrate between feeding and breeding(养育)grounds. No one knows for sure what the purpose of these songs is, whether they are love songs to the females or warnings to other males to stay away.
It was thought that each population of humpbacks had its own song which remained regular but recent findings suggest that the whales appreciate a memorable tune(曲调)and quickly adopt any new songs they hear.
1. Which finding about whales is beyond the writer's expectation?
A. The little puffs. B. The songs of whales.
C. The traveling speed of whales. D. The depth of the whale's dive.
2. What do we know about Max?
A. He likes whales very much.
B. He is a brave scientist on whales.
C. He is an experienced man in finding whales.
D. He is an expert in making hydrophones.
3. The writer's main purpose of looking for whales is______.
A. carrying out research on whales
B. studying the beautiful songs of whales
C. making films about whales
D. hunting whales for research
