Less educated and less poised（沉着的）than his brother William, Britain’s Prince Harry has occasionally found himself on the front pages of some tabloid (小报) for the wrong reason. Harry has admitted drinking underage and smoking marijuana（大麻）in the past. In January 2006, he apologized after being pictured at a costume party dressed as a Nazi. But one thing he has been serious about is going to Iraq to fight with his fellow soldiers. After completing training last year, he demanded a chance to serve.
As a child he collected military toys and his bedroom walls were covered with posters of helicopters and tanks. Despite his youth, the army has always held a special place in his heart.
“There’s no way I am going to sit back home while my boys are out fighting for their country,” he said in an interview to mark his 21st birthday. “That may sound patriotic（爱国的）, but it’s true.” Perhaps this shows new strength in him.
Britain’s Defense Ministry announced last week that the 22-year-old Harry would serve a six-month tour of duty in southern Iraq.
Harry said he was “over the moon” and has insisted he wants to be treated the same as any ordinary soldiers.
In Britain, British Prime Minister Tony Blair described Harry’s decision as in keeping with his character. But in Baghdad, Iraqis described it as a public relations move.
Harry has been the focus of attention in the past few years probably because of________.
A. the identity as a prince of the UK
B. his bad habits and wrong behavior
C. his devotion to his country
D. his preference to the army
By saying “Perhaps this shows new strength in him.”, the author means that Prince Harry changed his image by_______.
A. taking an interest in military
B. apologizing for a Nazi uniform
C. being willing to serve in the army in Iraq
D. defending Britain against attack
The underlined word “over the moon” in the Paragraph 5 means_____.
A. very pleased B. very sad C. very frightened D. very calm
Which of the followings is NOT the reason why he insisted on serving in Iraq?
A. He was more or less affected by his childhood’s interest
B. He has grown up and felt a sense of duty to his country
C. His strong character contributes to his decision
D. He wants to make up for his wrong actions
In Iraqis’ eyes, Harry’s decision to serve in Iraq is_______.
A. patriotic B. political C. friendly D. personal
【小题1】B
【小题2】C
【小题3】A
【小题4】D
【小题5】B
【小题1】细节理解题。由文章第一段和第七段可知哈利王子过去喜欢穿纳粹人的服装和有酗酒、吸毒的恶习，这正是在最近他成为报纸头条新闻的原因。故答案为B。
【小题2】判断作者意图题。由第一段可知，作者所说的哈利王子一个新的优点是他坚持去英国军队服役，与士兵并肩作战。
【小题3】词义猜测题。第二段说英国国防部宣布同意哈利王子的请求，当然他会感到高兴，over the moon的意思为“欣喜若狂”。
【小题4】可以采用排除法。由第1、4、5段可知，哈利王子多少受到儿时爱好的影响（A项）；由倒数第二段可知B项也是原因之一；最后一段Tony Blair指出了哈利王子的决定符合他的性格（B项）。D项内容与文章的整个基调（哈利王子已经成为一个成熟爱国的年轻人）不相符合，故D项符合题意。
【小题5】细节理解题。由文章最后一句 “But in Baghdad, Iraqis described it as a public relations move.” 可知伊拉克人认为这是国与国之间公共关系一种措施而已，是政治性的，故答案为 B。

C
What comes as a shock to many Westerners may be the unfriendly way that some Chinese treat waiters and waitresses in restaurants and bars. Over the last few years,as many in Beijing have made fortunes,I and many of my foreign friends have noticed a downturn in the treatment of those who work all hours and often live in terrible conditions to bring us our food,guard our homes and sell us clothes.It's not the common citizens,but the young nouveau riches(暴发户) Chinese in Beijing who are mostly guilty of this both social and human misbehavior.
It is not unusual to see and hear these people,especially the young women among their ranks,speaking rudely to the waiters and waitresses,as they sit there in the misguided belief that the latest mobile phone,a new car and designer clothes give them the right to talk to people like dirt.In one recent incident(事件) in an expensive restaurant near where I live ,I overheard the table next to me,two guys and a girl,tell the waitress "You really are stupid ",because she had brought them two glasses instead of three.They all burst into loud laughter as the young girl ran away to fetch another.In anther incident I saw a waitress reduced to tears as four well-dressed girls criticized everything from her accent to her looks.
Lately I have noticed that this rather unpleasant aspect of the nouveau riches has been taken up by many of their foreign peers(同类人).So I ask Beijing's bright young things to set a good example,and treat all people with equal respect.And I urge foreigners to follow the good examples of their Chinese language teachers and textbooks while adding some of the pleasantries of their own cultures,so that cultural interpenetration(相互渗透) has a positive influence and not a negative one.
Here I'd like to leave you with the words from Confucius:"What you do not wish for yourself, do not "do to others."
64.The writer has noticed that less respect is shown to _______ in Beijing in recent years.
A.common citizens B.waiters and the like
C.young nouveau riches D.some foreigners
65.The two incidents mentioned in Paragraph 2 are used to show ______.
A.waiters and waitresses can make excusable mistakes
B.waitresses are usually too shy to be laughed at
C.some Beijingers are too particular about restaurant service
D.what's being talked about is not rare
66.The young Beijingers are asked to set a good example in order to ______
A.have good influence over foreigners
B.leave a good impression on foreigners
C.educate younger Chinese
D.develop traditional Chinese culture
67.The origial title of the article is most likely to be _______.
A.One Dark Side of the Bright Chinese Capital
B.Beijing's Young Nouveau Riches,Watch Out
C.Dno't Throw Away Good Manners,Please
D.People Like Waiters Live at Bottom of Society
