    READING COMPREHENSION
         Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.
         Everyone has got two personalities — the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret
    and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your
    behaviour, but when you're asleep,  your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of
    course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.  
         If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are
    easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don't like to upset people, so you never express your real
    feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.  
         If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive(不坦率的)person. You worry a lot and
    you're always easily upset. You're very stubborn(顽固的), but you aren't very ambitious. You usually
    live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.  
         If you sleep curled up(卷曲), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of
    yourself and so you're often defensive. You're shy and you don't normally like meeting people. You
    prefer to be on your own. You're easily hurt.  
         If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths
    and weaknesses. You're usually careful.  You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious,
    but you don't often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.        
    1. According to the writer, you naturally show your secret and real personality __________.
    A. only in a normal night
    B. only when you're sleeping
    C. only when you refuse to show yourself to the world
    D. only when you change sleeping position 
    2. Which is NOT mentioned in the second paragraph about a person's personality? 
    A. He /she is always open with others.
    B. He /she always likes new ideas earlier than others.
    C. He /she is always easily upset.
    D. He /she tends to believe in others. 
    3. Point out which sentence is used to show the personality of a person who is used to sleeping
    on his/her stomach? 
    A. He /she is always optimistic.
    B. He /she doesn't want to stick to his or her opinion.
    C. He /she always enjoys his/her real life.
    D. He /she often dreams to be a big person. 
    4. Maybe you don't want to make friends with a person who sleeps curled up. Why? 
    A. He/she would rather be alone than communicate with you.
    B. He/she is rarely ready to help you.
    C. He/she prefers staying at home to going out.
    D. He/she wouldn't like to get help from you. 
    5. It appears that the writer tends to think highly of the person who sleeps on one side because ______ . 
    A. he /she always shows sympathy for people
    B. he /she is confident, but not stubborn
    C. he /she has more strengths than weaknesses
    D. he/ she often considers annoying people

         What makes a house a home?
         Not size,of course.I've been in some of the grandest houses in America,and it's clear that no one
    lives there.Earlier this year,I had dinner in a mud hut in Ethiopia,where we sat on chairs next to the
    hostess' bed-a home that had more warmth than any house I've been in since.
         Now John Edwards is exploring what makes a house a home in his justreleased(发行)Home.The
    Blueprints of Our Lives.There Edwards writes,"This isn't a book about houses；it's a book about
    homes.About the values they rest on,the dreams they are filled with,and the people they have shaped
    ."Edwards writes,"The houses and circumstances are different,but much of what you find inside will
    be familiar."
          Whether you're sitting in an airport right now,waiting to fly to your childhood home for Thanksgiving,
    or in your own home waiting for the relatives to arrive,you know what he's talking about.
          We've lived in our townhouse for 21 years.It's home now.The loose windows that shake in the wind.
    The fireplace so shallow it holds only one log.The kitchen window that offers a view of the world passing
    by.It's where friends sit on the kitchen counter drinking wine while dinner is being fixed.I lived there for
    only 18 years,but it will always be my true home.Even the lamp in the west living room window,which I
    could see far down the road when driving home late at night,still shines.
          While all this talk about childhood memories can be warm and comforting,home is whom you're with,
    not where you are.As Edwards writes,"Home is family.Home is safety.Home is faith."
         Happy homecoming.
    1．According to the author,what makes a house a home?
    A．All the belongings in the house.
    B．Feelings of warmth and comfort.
    C．The houses and circumstances.
    D．Drinking with friends on the kitchen counter.
    2．About the book Home: The Blueprints of Our Lives,we know that ________.
    A．it was the description of Edwards' houses
    B．it is mainly about houses
    C．it helps us understand the concept(概念)of home
    D．it was written by the author of the text
    3．What did the author mean when he mentioned the loose windows and the shallow fireplace?
    A．His house was too old to live in.
    B．He missed the feeling of home.
    C．He hated living there.
    D．He missed his old friends too much.
    4．It can be inferred according to the text that ________.
    A．the author's family was very rich
    B．every happy home is the same
    C．the author has been living an unhappy life
    D．the author and Edwards hold similar ideas

         Treetops, the hotel in the trees, is famous in the world. Peop1e know little about Kenya, but they know of Treetops. When King George VI died, Princess Elizabeth was staying on the Treetops, and when she
    came down from there, "She succeeded him as the queen of the country".
         The hotel is in the middle of the forest, and it shows the pleasure of Africa. When you visit it, you will
    be sent into the heart of the forest by hotel buses, and then a guide, with a gun to protect you against big
    game, will go with you to the Treetops. Before and after dinner, for the whole night if you wish, you can sit on the corridor(走廊), watching animals come to the water pool. The earliest hotel Treetops was built
    round a large tree on the opposite side of the water, but that was destroyed by fire and the new hotel
    Treetops, which is built round several trees, is much bigger.
         The dining room at Treetops is small, and the waiters cannot walk round to serve guests, so a clever
    "railway service" has been invented. Guests take their food as it passes slowly in front of them, along a line in the center of the table.
         There are many animals around the Treetops. When you visit them, you can see:
         ---Animals and their babies are waiting to greet the guests.
         ---Animals, enjoying the Treetops pool in the daylight.
         ---A long bodied, long ring tailed very active cat-like animal is a special one coming out at night. He
    hunts and eats anything he can catch and is very destructive. He lives in the trees at Treetops. He comes
    for his food every evening. Do not get too near to him, as his teeth and claws(爪)can do you harm. These animals can be trained and become lovely pets.
    1. The underlined word "succeeded" in Paragraph 1 probably means "_________".
    A. did what she was trying to do          
    B. gained her purpose
    C. replaced someone in an important position
    D. completed an easy task

    A. the service provided at the railway station    
    B. the supply of food on the train
    C. the service provided along the railway      
    D. the supply of food along a moving line

    A. It comes for food only at night.     
    B. It lives in the trees at Treetops.
    C. Its teeth and claws can do people harm.
    D. It can catch any other animal in the forest.
    4. According to the text, Treetops is famous in the world because ________.
    A. it shows the pleasure of America                                                                            
    B. Princess Elizabeth got to the crown when coming down from
         there                                                                              
    C. it is built around several trees
    D. there are many animals that can be trained and become lovely pets
    5. We can learn from the text that the guests______.

         Believe it or not, optical illusion(错觉) can cut highway crashes.
        Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using
    a simple optical illusion. But stripes, called chevrons(人字形), painted on the roads make drivers think
    that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.
         Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is
    planning to repeat Japan's success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other
    patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway
    crashes.
        Excessive (too great) speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents,
    according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas
    where speed-related hazards (danger) are the greatest curves, exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges.
        Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average
    speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used
    to seeing the painted bars.
         Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they
    really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway
    speed and the number of traffic accidents.

    1. On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that ________.

    A. they should avoid driving fast.      
    B. they are driving in the wrong lane
    C. they should slow down their speed    
    D. they are coming near to the speed limit

    2. The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former ________.

    A. can keep drivers awake          
    B. can cut road accidents in half
    C. will look more attractive          
    D. will have a longer effect on drivers

    3. What does the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety do?

    A. change the road signs across the country  
    B. try out the Japanese method in certain areas
    C. replace straight, horizontal bars with chevrons  
    D. repeat the Japanese road patterns

    4. What of the following is true about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads?

    A. They are suitable only on broad roads.
    B. They are falling out of use in the United States.
    C. They cannot be used successfully to traffic circles.
    D. They are ignored in a long period of time.

    5. What's the best title of the passage?

    A. a new pattern for painting highways    
    B. a new way of highway speed control
    C. a new way of training drivers            
    D. a new type of optical illusion

         Almost all theme park accidents can be prevented. Here, based on theme park safety, are some tips to help
    you and your family stay safe on your next visit.
         Stay Cool, and Don't Get Burned
         Heat causes more pain and injury at theme parks than all the world's roller coasters (过山车) combined.
    Water is your best friend in helping p.revent heat-related illnesses in theme parks. Choose water rather than
    juice and soft drinks whenever you get thirsty. Put on a waterproof sunscreen before you enter the park. A
    hat or sunglass- es can help, too.
         Stay In to Stay Safe
         On any theme park ride, keep your rear (后部) on the seat, your hands on the grab bar (扶手) and your
    feet and knees inside the car. If there is no grab bar, keep your hands on your lap (膝部). If you are riding a
    "floorless" coaster, relax your legs. Don't kick them out to the side or front. Do not get on or off a ride until
    you've been given the okay by an attendant to do so.
         Help the Kids
         If you are visiting with a child, tell them how they should be have. Meanwhile, parents also know the
    following rules, too.
         ★Tell them to stay seated, to hold the grab bar or put their hands in the laps.
         ★And never put a crying child on a ride. If your child starts to cry, let others pass you in line until your
    child is calmed. Or, gently exit the queue and find something more relaxing to do.
         ★Let them take plenty of breaks.
         "Kids get tired," said TPI reader Matt Johnson, a father of four. "Tired kids make parents even more tired.
    And tired kids and parents get hurt-physically and emotionally." He advises that parefits plan a mid-day break,
    perhaps a swim back at the hotel, to avoid mid-day heat and crowds.
         "You will see many families having a miserable time while you are refreshed and having a great evening."
    1. The best title for the passage would probably be _____.
    A. Theme Park Safety Tips
    B. How to Protect Yourselves Better
    C. Full Preparations Before Visiting Theme Park
    D. Theme Park Accidents
    2. The underlined word "miserable" likely means _____.
    A. comfortable
    B. very unhappy
    C. pleasant
    D. wonderful
    3. We may infer from Matt Johnson's words that _____.
    A. he doesn't like to visit a theme park with his children
    B. parents with many children may be tired of visiting a theme park
    C. not all the families are relaxed or happy when they visit a theme park
    D. parents should plan a mid-day break or a swim back at the hotel to avoid heat and crowds.

         Summer is the ideal time of year for one of my favorite outdoor activities, hiking (徒步旅行). It is
    much more than just a great Workout. You get to be outside of the confines of a gym and be together
    with nature. You breathe in the fresh, clean air while the city life you endured all week just fades away.
    You are suddenly transported somewhere else. You are suddenly in a place where you can appreciate
    the untouched, simplistic beauty of nature. The trees are green, the wild flowers are growing and the
    woods are filled with activity. Once you experience it, you're hooked.
         Whether hiking in the deserts of Arizona or the mountains of Alberta, you suddenly realize you are
    not alone and there is something much bigger at work. There is a realization that life is precious and you
    think deeply about your life.
         Another wonderful part of hiking is that you can participate at any level and it is, for the most part,
    free. It is a great way to escape the rat race, even during the week. If you have any problems you need
    to solve, hiking is really good for clearing your head and removing stress.
         If hiking sounds intimidating to you, it is essentially walking on a whole new level. Experts have
    spoken about the benefits of walking for years. Walking doesn't stress your legs as much as running and
    countless studies agree walking leads to weight loss and better health. It is good for your heart, reduces
    illness and has even been shown to enhance your thinking. So why wouldn't you want to do it?
    1. What disappears for someone who is hiking?
    A. Green trees.
    B. Beautiful nature.  
    C. City life.    
    D. Precious things.
    2. Once you take up hiking in nature as something you do, you______.
    A. feel much bigger than before
    B. love it and want to do it often
    C. wish you lived outside of the city
    D. look for new hiking places, like Arizona
    3. How do you feel after you've begun hiking?
    A. Anxious.    
    B. Thoughtful.    
    C. Lonely.    
    D. Free from stress.
    4. How is running different than walking?
    A. Running is harder on the legs.        
    B. Running is better h/r weight loss.
    C. Running is good for a person's heart.  
    D. Running is a cause for improved thinking.
