A
"The hound（猎狗）! "cries Holmes. "Come, Watson! Come.
We run quickly over the moor. We hear one last cry. A man is lying on the ground. As we came closer we see the dead body of Sir Henry Baskerville. He is wearing his brown suit.
"Oh, no! " says Holmes, This man has a beard（胡须）! "
Indeed Selden is dead instead of Sir Henry.
So it is all clear to me. I remember that Sir Henry gave his old suit to Barrymore, and Barrymore probably gave it to Selden- his wife’s brother.
"Then Selden is dead because of this suit, ” says Holmes.
"Think. Watson! Someone gives the hound some of Sir Henry’s clothes -probably the boot from the hotel in London. The hound picks up Sir Henry’s scent and runs after this poor man. "
Suddenly we see Stapleton walking towards us. He says, "There was a strange noise. I was worried about Sir Henry. I wanted to check if he was all right. "
"Really? " asks Holmes
Stapleton looks at Holmes. "Why, it is Mr Sherlock Holmes, the famous detective! Can you solve the mystery of the Hound of the Baskervilles? "
Holmes shrugs his shoulders. "We cannot solve every mystery. Anyway I return to London tomorrow. "
"Oh, do you return to London tomorrow? "
"Yes. "
So Holmes and I walk off to Baskerville Hall and Stapleton to his home.
Holmes thinks Stapleton is dangerous. But we have no proof（证据）that Stapleton is the murderer.
"There are no marks on Sir Charles's body. We know that he is died of fright （恐吓）, but we can't prove anything. "
"Things are becoming clear to me, " Holmes says to Sir Henry. "It’s a very difficult case. And you must help me to catch this hound. "
We are surprised to see one painting of a thin man is Sir Hugo, the first victim of the Hound of the Baskervilles. And he's like both Sir Henry and Stapleton. " Stapleton is a Baskerville, "replies Holmes. " So he wants to inherit (继承) the Baskerville fortune , and he. . . , " I say. It’s an important clues.
1. The underlined word “scent” in Paragraph 2 probably means “ ”.
A. taste. B. boot. C. suit. D. smell.
2. We can infer(推断) from the passage that ______ .
A. Sir Henry tells Holmes that Stapleton is a Baskerville.
B. Stapleton wants to murder Sir Henry indeed.
C. Watson finds out that Selden is Mrs Stapleton’s brother.
D. Stapleton kills Selden by frightening him with the hound.
3. Which of the following is True according to the passage?
A. Holmes and Watson think Mr Barrymore murders Selden.
B. One painting of Sir Hugo gives Sherlock of Stapleton one night
C. Holmes and Watson find the dead body of Stapleton on the moor one night.
D. Holmes tells Stapleton that he and Watson are going back to London.
B
The story I would like to tell happened about a year ago. I accepted a position in a company. John, who I knew, told me much about the job and took my curriculum vitae (简历) to his manager. I did not see him as a friend because at the time we did not take part in activities together outside of work, nor did our wives.
The first week was fine. Nothing was clearly strange with John at first until the second week, when our communication began to get a little strange. John began making conversations like "you would have had to pay an employment agency（职业介绍所）several hundred dollars for a job like this". I soon forgot his words till the next day when he made another similar conversation. Right then I started to really pay attention to what he meant. He acted as if I owed him money for helping me to get the job.
He began to get short with me and I had only been there for two weeks. He should train me in building our e-mail servers（服务器）. Instead, he went through the process so fast that even an experienced worker could hardly keep up. He would not slow down or check whether I was with him or not. If there was something wrong with a server, he would just deal it by himself and not stop to say anything like "you might want to remember this. " I was in a bad mood from then on.
By the third week I began to get tired of his condescension (傲慢). So I began to challenge him in a way that was only one to one. He would reply to a question of mine with a question or just make me repeat it, and then cut in on me. I began to hate him. Later I tried to avoid him as much as I could.
He stopped me one day and asked me what had happened. I told him he was very condescending. He asked me, “What can I do so that you will not feel like this way in the future?” I simply asked him to treat me with the same respect he would like to be treated with. He did it and we got along better slowly. I believed there was hope and finally we would become friends and now we are.
4. Why didn’t the author refer to John as a friend at first?
A. They seldom spent free time together. B. They had only met for two weeks.
C. Their wives didn’t know each other. D. They had many disagreements on work.
5. What did John most probably mean by saying the underlined sentence?
A. The company he and the author worked in was very good.
B. The writer was wise not to ask an employment agency for help.
C. He had helped the author get a job without a penny.
D. The writer didn’t give him several hundred dollars to express his gratitude.
6. Which of the following is TRUE according to the third and fourth paragraphs?
A. John was an experienced and hard-working employee.
B. The writer was very slow in learning new things.
C. John hardly lent an ear to what the writer expressed.
D. The writer slowly got used to his work
7. What's the writer's purpose of sharing his story?

七、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）
People often say that the world is getting smaller. By this, they mean that with improved trade, each country is becoming more and more familiar with one another. There seems to be a lot of truth to this. After all, you can buy African food in India, or watch a French movie in China.
However, countries still have the power to surprise people who visit them for the first time. For many of us, there are still real differences in the culture and habits between countries.
Recently, the Daily Mail reported on some culture shocks(文化冲击) from around the world. A Serbian student, Milorad Boti, was greatly surprised on a school trip to Germany when he found that public bathrooms were very different to those in his home country. He noticed that after using the toilet, the cover turned as part of a cleaning process. Milorad was impressed. “That was the best thing that happened on that school trip,” he said.
Most often, however, it is some habits that are different between cultures. The Daily Mail article mentioned the shock of an Indian man, Kaushal Barot. When visiting a Western country, he noticed people communicating with each other in restaurants, often spending hours in them with friends. Kaushal was surprised because in India, restaurants are for one thing only: food.
The cultural differences people notice can seem good, bad, or simply just strange. But rather than something to be afraid of, these differences should be welcomed. Indeed, if the whole world were like one big country, it would be a much more boring place. So let’s be proud of our own culture, and at the same time, open to the cultures of others.
Topic: culture shocks around the world
Milorad Boti
On a school trip to Germany, he found public bathrooms very different to those in Serbia. After people used the toilet, its cover would turn to 1. _______ itself.
