    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    For some of us, though making friends is not difficult, feeling shy, we may not want to make the first move. It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.
    There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence  People, written in 1936, is the most famous. This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best-seller. It was later put into 28 languages.
    Dale Carnegie’s advice seems to be simple, but can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book.
    1. Be friendly and polite. Always greet with a smile. Begin with “excuse me” or “would you please”, when you want to ask somebody. Remember to say “thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.
    2. Go out of your way to be nice. Find some time to do special things for other people. Making some soup for a sick neighbor may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your neighbor feel a lot better.
    3. Remember names. They say that the sweetest music to a person’s ears is the sound of his or her own name.
    4. Be open-minded. Try to understand other people’s ways and ideas and learn something from them.
    5. Listen patiently. When someone is talking to you, look at him or her, listen carefully and say something when necessary.

    　　It's sometimes said that the English are polite people. This can make life
    difficult for foreigner. Suppose a foreign boy asks an English girl to go out with
    him and she says, " If I finish my work, I'll meet you in the café at 7 o'clock," Is
    she saying " yes" or " no" to his invitation?
    　　In grammatical terms, she is using the conditional structure. By using the
    conditional, speakers of English can avoid giving a "yes" or " no" answer to a
    question. It enables people to be diplomatic. If the girl doesn't want to go out
    with the boy, she won't turn up at the café. She will let him understand she is still
    working. If she wants to go out with him, but doesn't want to appear too easy to
    catch, she has achieved that with her reply. But in this case, as she uses the first
    conditional which shows probability, she is quite likely to turn up at the café.
    Being polite can make life very difficult!
    　　The conditional is often used by people in the news-politicians, for
    example-who to avoid speaking out their ideas. This is very important if they are
    on their way to discuss an agreement. No one wants to give away his or her
    points before he or she starts. A government spokesman might say to a group of
    workers, " if we could pay you more, we would.' The use of the conditional here
    makes room for argument although the speaker is using the second conditional
    form, which shows improbability. So it is unlikely the workers will get their
    rise.
    　　"If" is a small word, which appears often in the English language. It can
    show politeness, reported speech and conditionals such as the
    First-probability-if I can come to your party, I will; the
    second -improbability-if I saw you tomorrow, I'd give you the book; and the
    third-impossibility( meaning it is too late to change something that has
    happened)-if you have told me. I would have helped you.
    1. The using of the conditional can make a speech _____.
    A. clearer
    B. quicker
    C. more polite
    D. more exciting
    2. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
    A. Language used in the news should make room to argue.
    B. Usually English girls are not easy to catch.
    C. English people never speak out their ideas in public.
    D. The word "if" can show different meanings.
    3. In the passage," If we could pay you more, we would." probably means _____.
    A. the workers will make more money
    B. the spokesman doesn't give any promise
    C. the spokesman keeps his word
    D. the workers' problems aren't difficult
    4. This passage is mainly talking about _____.
    A. the conditional in communication
    B. how to invite a girl in Britain
    C. British people and their life
    D. some language points in daily English

    　　Cats are the most popular pets among Americans．So it is not surprising that there are a lot of expressions about cats．Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries(金丝雀)．If someone looks very proud and satisfied with himself, we say“he looks like the cat that ate the canary．”

    　　Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches．So if you“play cat and mouse”with someone, it means that you change between different kinds of behavior when dealing with another person．For example, a girl might offer something sweet to her little brother and then take it away when he reaches for it．

    　　If you have ever had cats as pets, you know it is difficult to train them or to get them to do something．Cats are not like Sheep or cows that can be moved in a group．So we say a difficult or impossible job is like“herding(放牧)cats”
