 People need to relax and enjoy themselves.  One way they can have a good time is to watch a baseball game or another sports event.  Even thousands of years ago, groups of people gathered to watch skilled athletes.

Over 2000 years ago in Greece, certain days in the year were festival days.  These were holidays when people stopped work and enjoyed themselves.  They liked to watch athletes take part in races and other games of skill.

The most important festival was held every four years at the town of Olympia.  It was held in honor of the Greek god Zeus (Zus).  For five days, athletes from all parts of the Greek world took part in the Olympic Games.  At the Olympic Games, people could watch them box, run, jump and so on.  There was a relay race between two reams of men in which a lighted torch was passed from runner to runner.  The Olympic Games were thought to be so important that cities which were at war with one another had to stop fighting.  People were allowed to travel to the games safely.  Thousands of people came to Olympia from cities in Greece and from her colonies (殖民地)in Africa, Asia and Italy.  They met as friends to cheer their favorite athletes and to enjoy themselves.

请认真阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
A
America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
56. The writer of this passage must be ______.
A. an American      B. a Chinese     C. a professor       D. a student
57. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.
D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
58. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.
A. warmly welcomed at the airport      B. offered a ride to his home
C. treated hospitably at his home       D. treated to dinner in a restaurant
59. The underlined words  “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.
A. strict with time    B. serious with time   C. careful with time   D. willing to spend time
60. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.
A. Friendships between Chinese      B. Friendships between Americans
C. Americans’ hospitality           D. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendships

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,将正确答案的选项字母标号写在答题纸上相对应的题号后。

One day last winter we received our first huge snowfall. An hour later I decided to let my dog out. That was when I got the shock! My sidewalk was cleaned and my path too. I had no idea who did this good deed. I looked over to my neighbor's driveway where the husband stood,open-mouthed and surprised. His sidewalk was also cleared. I asked him who did it. He just shook his head and let me know that he had no idea.

A week later we had another snowfall and I promised to pay attention this time just in case we had another visit from our snow angel. It was a good plan, but I got busy inside and forgot to keep a look out. Sure enough when I remembered to look out the snow had once again been cleared away.

Now I became determined to find my guardian(保护人) of the snow. Some three weeks went by when the snow started to fall again. I went to get a book and sat at the window just as the snow tapered off and my reading was interrupted by the sound of a shovel(铲子). I got to my feet to look out and was so choked up that I just stood there. My snow angel was an eight-year-old boy who lived a few houses away from me.

A month after the snows, I called him over and asked him if he knew of anybody who shoveled for me. He said, " I guess it was someone who likes you." So without taking credit for his good deed, he turned and left,

37. When the author saw her sidewalk was cleaned, she felt _________________.

A. excited      B. surprised          C. discouraged           D. satisfied

38. The second time the author failed to check who cleaned the snow. because she___________.

A. was busy cooking inside                       B. was not at home then

C. was too busy to pay attention                D. stood too far to see anything         

39. From the boy's answer "I guess it was someone who likes you", we can infer that the boy_____.

A. wanted to keep the truth a secret          B, might be a relative of the author's

C. wanted to make a good impression        D. wanted to make friends with the author

40. What can we learn from the passage?

A. It snowed every week where the author lived.

B. The author intended to praise the boy.

C. The author didn't like to clean snow,

D. No one knew who helped clean the snow at last.
