题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Several years ago, a television reporter was interviewing three of the most important people from local businesses. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York.

  The reporter was talking to them about being important.

  “How do we know if someone is really important?” the reporter asked the banker.

  The banker thought for a few moments and then said, “I think anybody who is invited to the White House to meet the President is really important.”

  The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” she asked.

  The man shook his head, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another country, and the President said he was too busy to answer it.”

  The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so?”

  “No, I don’t.” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.”

  “Then what would make the visitor important?” the reporter and the other two men asked.

  “Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, ‘it’s for you.’”

  In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining at home. They
often invite friends to come over for a meal, a party, or just for coffee and a
conversation.
  Here are the kinds of things people say  when they invite someone to their
home:
  "Would you like to come over for dinner  this Saturday night?"
  "Hey, we're having a party on Friday. Can you come?"
  To reply to an invitation, either say thank you and accept, or say you're
sorry and give an excuse:
  "Thanks, I'd love to. What time would you like me to come?" or "Oh, sorry.
I've tickets to a movie."
  Sometimes, however, people use expressions that sound like invitations but
which are not real invitations. For  example :
  "Please come over for a drink sometime."
  "Why don't you come over and see us sometime soon?"
  They are really just polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real
invitations because they don't mention a  specific (确定的) time or date. They
just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To reply to expressions like
these, people just say "Sure, that would be great!" or "OK. / Yes, thanks."
  So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully.
Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?
1. Why do Canadians and Americans often invite friends for meals at home?
A. Because they can save time.
B. Because they can spend less money.
C. Because they enjoy entertaining at home.
D. Because they have modern and beautiful  houses.
2. Which of the following is a real  invitation?
A. If you're free, let's go for a drink sometime.
B. Please go to the cinema with me some day.
C. Would you like to have a cup of tea with us  sometime?
D. I've two tickets here. Can you go to the  concert with me tonight?
3. If people say "Let's get together forlunch some day", you just say "_____".
A. That would be nice.
B. How about this weekend?
C. Oh,  sorry. I'm very busy.
D. That's great. I'll be there on time.

A. they're trying to be friendly

A letter to the editor (编辑)
13 October
Dear Editor,
     I am writing to ask what has happened to the young. They are not as polite, hardworking or clever as my
generation (一代人). I'll give you an example.
     Last Friday I got on the underground at 9:15 a. m. It was very busy so there were no free seats. There
were some teenagers (青少年) sitting on the seats near me. I don't know why they were not at school. They
were talking loudly and laughing. It was difficult to read my newspaper with all the noise. A heavily pregnant
(怀孕的) woman and her daughter got on at the next stop, with lots of shopping bags. I expected the teenagers
to let them sit down. They slowly did so but gave me an impolite look. I got off at the next stop and was glad
that the teenagers didn't follow me.
     I worried about the future of our country. How could these young people become responsible (有责任心的) workers and parents? They sit around McDonald's after school instead of going to the library as I did at their
age. Maybe they have too much money. Perhaps another reader can give us an idea about what to do with this
"lost generation".
                                                                                                                                       Franz Johnson
A reply to Mr. Johnson's letter
20 October
Dear Editor,
     I read Mr. Johnson's letter about the problem of today's youth (青少年) with much interest. He described
teenagers on a train not giving seats to a pregnant woman and her daughter. I was the woman. We must have
seen things differently. I found the teenagers helpful and kind. Did Mr. Johnson see the teenagers help me off
the train? Did he see them carry my shopping bags to a taxi for me? Did he see them friendly to my daughter?
Obviously (明显地) not.
     "Older" people often say today's youth isn't as good as their generation. Their parents said that about them.
Mr. Johnson must accept (接受) that the world is changing and young people are changing with it. I find today's youth mostly kind and more friendly than my generation.
     Perhaps Mr. Johnson should really try to get to know some young people before he calls them the "lost
generation".
                                                                                                                                         Linda Black
1. Mr. Johnson wrote the letter to _____.

D. teach the young a lesson
2. When Mr. Johnson was young, he usually _____ after school.

3. In the second letter, Mrs. Black _____.
A. discussed the youth problem with the old
B. told another story about the young people
C. warned to show her thanks to the young people
D. wanted the "older" people to understand the young

① Mrs. Black wrote to the newspaper.
② Mrs. Black took a taxi with her daughter.

⑤ Mr. Johnson thought the young people might follow him.
