题目列表(包括答案和解析)

　　Good afternoon, and welcome to England. We hope that your visit here will be a pleasant one. Today, I would like to draw your attention to a few of our laws.

　　The first one is about drinking. Now, you may not buy alcohol in this country if you are under 18 years of age, nor may your friends buy it for you.

　　Secondly, noise. Enjoy yourselves by all means, but please don't make unnecessary noise, particularly at night. We ask you to respect other people who may wish to be quiet.

　　Thirdly, crossing the road. Be careful. The traffic moves on the left side of the road in this country. Use pedestrian crossing and do not take any chances when crossing the road. My next point is about litter（throwing away waste material in a public place）. It is an offence to drop litter in the street.

　　When you have something to throw away, please put it in your pocket and take it home, or put it in a litter bin. Finally, as regards smoking, it is against the law to buy cigarettes or tobacco if you are under 16 years of age.

　　I'd like to finish by saying that if you require any sort of help or assistance, you should contact your local police station, who will be pleased to help you.

　　Now, are there any questions?

The main purpose of this speech would be to ______.

　　　　A. prepare people for international travel

　　　　B. declare the laws of different kinds

　　　　C. give advice to travelers to the country

　　　　D. inform people of the punishment for breaking laws

　　How many laws are there discussed in the speech？

　　　　A. Three.　　　　 B. Four.　　　　　C. Five.　　　　　 D. Six.

　　From the speech we learn that ______.

　　　　A. in this country, if you are under 18 years of age, you may not buy alcohol, but your friend can buy it for you

　　　　B. you may not buy cigarettes or tobacco unless you are above 16 years of age

　　　　C. because the traffic moves on the left side of the road, you must use pedestrian crossings when crossing the road

第一节阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

You must have been troubled by when to say "I love you" because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life.

What if you say it first and your partner doesn’t love you back? Or if they do say it but you don’t feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be never racking (紧张) and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesn’t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand faster?

“A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal,” says psychologist Sidney Crown. “But love is seldom equal.” “All relationships go through power struggles but,” he says, “if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in.” That feeling of “I’ve always loved you more” may be subverted (颠覆，破坏) for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in squabbling (大声争吵). In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. “The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings,” says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. "The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative.” In fact, the person who says “I love you” first may also be the one who says “I’m bored with you’ first.” Hall believes that much depends on how "I love you" is said and the motivation of the person saying it. Is it said when they’re drunk? Is it said before their partner flies off on holiday, and what it really means is “Please don’ t be unfaithful to me” ? By saying “I love you”, they are really saying “Do you love me?” If so, wouldn’t it just be more honest to say that. Collins agrees that intention is everything. "It’s not what is said, but how it’s said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker.”

41. What is the main idea of this passage?

　A. The importance of "I love you" 　 B. The meaning of "I love you"

　C. The time of saying "I love you". 　D. The place of saying "I love you"

　A. it is easy to say "I love you"

　C. we have many troubles in our life

　D. people usually do not know when to say "I love you"

43. According to the expert, a good relationship should be _____________.

　A. fair and equal 　 B. fair and kind

　C. powerful and equal D. confident and fair

44. In the third paragraph, the phrase "with the upper hand" means __________.
