　　第三节：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

　　A

　　Every American family has its own traditions on Thanksgiving Day, and mine is no difference. Once the national holiday arrives, my mom rises early to make the meal. She puts a turkey in the oven, chops carrots and bakes pies. I’m sorry to say that the men in the family – my dad, my younger brother and myself – rarely pitch in to help. Our job is to wash the mountain of dirty dishes after the meal is over.

　　Around 2 pm every Thanksgiving Day, family members seat themselves around the kitchen table. Plates of turkey, vegetables, salad, rolls and pies cover it. At this point, we can hardly keep ourselves from drooling (流口水) all over our fancy clothes, but it’s not yet time to eat.

　　First, we must bow our heads, close our eyes and say a prayer of thanks aloud to God for giving us everything we have. Under normal circumstances, I would have no problem making a list of things I am thankful for. I grew up in a loving family. My parents, who aren’t wealthy, took out loans to help me pay for university.

　　But, the funny thing is, every time I sit down for Thanksgiving dinner and try to say a prayer of thanks, my mind usually goes blank. I think it has something to do with my growling (咕咕叫) stomach and all of that food sitting right there under my nose.

　　Eventually, though, we all finish our short prayers and dig in. To be sure, the day includes other highlights – visiting with family and watching football. But usually around 6 pm we are all ourselves stuffed like turkeys and thankful to have a nice warm bed to sleep in.

　　36. The purpose of the text is to ___.

　　A. tell what the family do for Thanksgiving Day

　　B. tell how the family spends Thanksgiving Day

　　C. introduce foods served on Thanksgiving Day

　　D. introduce the American Thanksgiving Day

　　37. On Thanksgiving Day the author’s family do the following except ___.

　　A. watching a movie

　　B. making visits

　　C. having a big meal

　　D. watching football

　　38. Why does the author’s mind usually “go blank” when saying a prayer of thanks?

　　A. He is too thankful to say a word.

　　B. His mind is on the food before him.

　　C. He feels too excited to speak.

　　D. He is shy to speak in public.

　　39. What can we conclude from the text?

　　A. On Thanksgiving Day, men do nothing but eat.

　　B. The author is a middle school student.

　　C. The author’s family is not rich, but it’s a loving one.

　　D. Thanksgiving Day falls on Thursday of December.

　　B

　　In many cultures white is often associated with something positive. A white-collar job, for instance, is the kind of job many people look for, working with your brain and not your hands.

　　White has a clean and pure image. That is why doctors, dentists, and nurses usually wear white uniforms. Babies are dressed in white at baptisms（洗礼）and brides wear white wedding gowns at weddings. White in these cases is the symbol of innocence or purity.

　　Sometimes white is used in expressions that are not good. “Whitewash” is one such expression. At first, “whitewash” meant to paint over something with white paint to make it look better. However, it means something different today: to hide or to cover up mistakes or failures.

　　A “white elephant” is another example of white used in a negative way. In ancient Thailand, a white elephant was regarded as a sacred animal, but it was very expensive to keep. The kings of those days presented a white elephant to the people they wanted to ruin. Once they received this holy, royal animal as a gift, they were not allowed to sell or kill it. Today, a “white elephant” means something that is big, useless, and unwanted. In America, when people want to get rid of their furniture or clothes, they often have a “white elephant sale”.

　　40. The text is mainly about ___.

　　A. the meanings of white in English culture

　　B. the history of some English idioms

　　C. some interesting customs in English culture

　　D. some useful English words and expressions

　　41. Which expression has an historical background?

　　A. White-wash

　　B. White-collar

　　C. White elephant

　　D. White elephant sale.

　　42. In which statement does “white” have a negative meaning?

　　A. A boy is dressed in white at baptisms.

　　B. A bride wears a white wedding gown.

　　C. A man whitewashes his crime.

　　D. A girl finds a white collar job.

　　43. From the text we can learn that ___.

　　A. a white-elephant sale is useful to the poor

　　B. the white color is important in our daily life

　　C. a white-collar job used to be easy to get

　　D. expressions with white have different meanings

　　C

　　Parents have to do much less for their children today than they used to do, and home has become much less of a workshop．Clothes can be bought ready made，washing can go to the laundry，food can be bought cooked, canned or preserved，bread is baked and delivered by the baker，milk arrives on the doorstep, meals can be had at the restaurant, the works’ canteen, and the school dining-room．

　　It is unusual now for father to pursue his trade or other employment at home，and his children rarely，if ever，see him at his place of work．Boys are therefore seldom trained to follow their father’s occupation, and in many towns they have a fairly wide choice of employment and so do girls．The young wage earner often earns good money, and soon acquires a feeling of economic independence．In textile （纺织 areas it has long been customary for mothers to go out to work, but this practice has become so widespread that the working mother is now a not unusual factor in a child’s home life, the number of married women in employment having more than doubled in the last twenty-five years. With mother earning and his older children drawing substantial wages，father is seldom the dominant figure that he still was at the beginning of the century. When mother works, economic advantages increase, but children lose something of great values if mother’s employment prevents her from being home to greet them when they return from school．

　　44．The writer compares home to a workshop because_____.

　　A. fathers often pursue employment at home

　　B. parents have to make food and necessity themselves for their daily-life

　　C. many families produce goods at home for sale

　　D. both fathers and mothers in most families are workers

　　45．The writer says that home has become much less of a work-shop．He means_____.

　　A. in the past, home was more like a workshop

　　B. home is much more of a workshop now

　　C. home-workshops are becoming fewer and fewer

　　D. home was less like a workshop in the past

　　46．What makes father no longer be the only dominant person in a family?

　　A .With their earning，mother and children do not need to depend on father for their life．

　　B. There are many choices of employment for mothers and children．

　　C. Father does much less for his children today than he used to．

　　D. The number of married women in employment has increased greatly now．

　　D

　　TAIBEI － Increasing numbers of Taiwanese students are joining the island’s “China rush”, seeking education on the Chinese mainland．

　　According to official Chinese figures, the number of Taiwanese students admitted into college and postgraduate was 839 in 1998．Although no latest official numbers were available,” Netbig.

Com vice-president Ingrid Huang said．“I believe it will give me hands-on experience in the business field in the Chinese mainland and a better understanding of the Chinese mainland people,” said Lydia Chang, a 19-year-old majoring in journalism at Shih Shin University. Chang plans to go on to get a master’s degree in business administration in Shanghai, which she says offers the best environment for such studies.

A Netbig. Com survey showed the campuses favored by Taiwan students included Beijing, Qinghua and Renmin universities in Beijing, and Jinan and Zhongshan universities in Guangzhou. The most popular studies were law, business and Chinese medicine.
