　　閱讀理解-個(gè)人情況與人際關(guān)系.

　　Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg，distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I became increasingly impatient.

　　At one point along an open road, I came to a crossing with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I drove near the light, it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of car lamps, but there I sat, waiting for the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile in any direction.

　　I started wondering why 1 refused to run the light I was not afraid of being caught, because there was clearly no policeman wound, and there certainly would have been no danger in going through it..

　　Much later that night, the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think I

　　stopped because it's part of a contract(契約)we all have with each other. It's not only the law, but it is an agreement we have, and we trust each other to honor it: we don't go through red lights.

　　Trust is our first inclination(傾向).Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual(相互)trust, not distrust We do what we say we'll do; we show up when we say we'll show up; and we pay when we say we'll pay. We trust each other in these matters, and we're angry or disappointed with the person or organization that breaks the trust we have in them.

　　I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night.

　　63. Why did the author get impatient while driving?

　　A. He was lonely on the road.

　　B. He was slowed down by a truck.

　　C. He got tired of driving too long.

　　D. He came across too many traffic lights.

　　64. What was the author's immediate action when the traffic light turned red?

　　A. Stopping still.

　　B. Driving through讓

　　C. Looking around for other cars.

　　D. Checking out for traffic police.

　　65. The event made the author strongly believe that

　　A. traffic rules may be unnecessary

　　B. doubting others is human nature

　　C. patience is important to drivers

　　D. a society needs mutual trust

　　66. Why was the author proud of himself?

　　A He kept his promise.

　　B. He held back his anger.

　　C. He followed his inclination.

　　D. He made a right decision.

　　When my brother and I were young, my mom would take us on Transportation Days.

　　It goes like this: You can’t take any means of transportation more than once. We would start from home, walking two blocks to the rail station. We’d take the train into the city center, then a bus, switching to the tram, then maybe a taxi. We always considered taking a horse carriage in the historic district, but we didn’t like the way the horses were treated, so we never did. At the end of the day, we took the subway to our closest station, where Mom’s friend was waiting to give us a ride home—our first car ride of the day.

　　The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mom taught us how to get around. She was born to be multimodal (多方式的). She understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and, above all, a failure of confidence—the product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels.

　　Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform, nothing is frightening anymore. New cities are just light-rail lines to be explored. And your personal car, if you have one, becomes just one more tool in the toolbox—and often an inadequate one, limiting both your mobility and your wallet.

　　On Transportation Days, we might stop for lunch on Chestnut Street or buy a new book or toy, but the transportation was the point. First, it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window. As I got older, my mom helped me unlock the mysteries that would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself: How do I know where to get off? How do I know how much it costs? How do I know when I need tickets, and where to get them? What track, what line, which direction, where’s the stop, and will I get wet when we go under the river?

　　I’m writing this right now on an airplane, a means we didn’t try on our Transportation Days and, we now know, the dirtiest and most polluting of them all. My flight routed me through Philadelphia. My multimodal mom met me for dinner in the airport. She took a train to meet me.

　　A. displayed

　　B. justified

　　C. ignored

　　D. ruined

　　58. Which means of transportation does the writer probably disapprove of?

　　A. Airplane.

　　B. Subway.

　　C. Tram.

　　D. Car.

　　【語篇大意】作者描述自己從小媽媽培養(yǎng)自己的生活意識學(xué)會(huì)獨(dú)立乘坐交通工具的生活經(jīng)驗(yàn)以及對這些交通的看法。

　　55. B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)是在乘坐交通工具日要不要做的事情，從第二段You can’t take any means of transportation more than once.可知乘坐這些交通工具一天不能超過兩次，故答案為B項(xiàng)。

　　56. A推理判斷解題。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)均為乘坐交通工具日所帶來的好處，從作者的角度在孩提時(shí)期能順利自己出門然后歸來能學(xué)會(huì)生活、增強(qiáng)自信，故答案為A項(xiàng)。

　　57. D詞義推測題。小時(shí)候?qū)W會(huì)這些是一件很好的獨(dú)立意識培養(yǎng)，長大后媽媽給作者揭秘，但在小時(shí)候這樣做會(huì)毀壞作者的獨(dú)立意識，故答案為D項(xiàng)。

　　58. A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。在最后一段作者提到we now know, the dirtiest and most polluting of them all.這是乘坐飛機(jī)時(shí)的感覺，故答案為A項(xiàng)。

　　·專項(xiàng)訓(xùn)練“ ③In a group of three people, there is always something I can learn, Choose to follow the strengths of others, and use their shortcomings to reflect upon ourselves."

　　As you can see from what Confucius said, everyone that we come across can teach us something useful. As long as we reflect on the lessons learnt from and by other people, we can continuously improve ourselves. But take note that when you reflect on these lessons,

　　you apply some wisdom to each lesson because each situation is unique although they share some common principles.

　　We can learn a lot from others . ④We always tend to think that we can only learn from those who are higher in status or have more knowledge than us, but that is not really the case. We can learn from those who are lower in status than us as well, because the experience and knowledge of each person is very different.

　　The best thing about this type of learning, reflecting other people's strengths and shortcomings onto ourselves, is that we do not pay for the mistakes that are made. The only cost to us is the time that is needed to learn about and reflect on these lessons from other people' s lives.

　　As we all know, some mistakes can be ones which people cannot afford to make, for instance, a broken friendship or a financial loss. Thus constantly using other people' s

　　strengths and shortcomings to reflect upon ourselves makes us realize the costs of these mistakes and reduces

　　the possibility that we will make similar mistakes.

　　What can we do now to learn from others? By keeping our eyes and ears open. Be observant and able to realize

　　what strengths and shortcomings other people have. A lot of people in this world like to complain about their lives. Listen to them and make your own assessment ( 評估) and

　　from your own assessment, reflect upon your life and make improvements where necessary.

　　⑥Although we may not realize that when we talk with others, we make ourselves understood not only by words, we send messages to the people around us also by expressions and body movements. We call it "body language", which is a kind of nonverbal communication. A smile and a handshake show welcome. Waving one's hand is to say goodbye, nodding the head means agreement, while shaking it means disagreement. Putting up a hand means "May I ask a question?" These gestures are accepted both by Chinese and Americans as having the same meanings.

　　Culture influences communication and different countries have different cultures, so the way people in different countries communicate is different too. For example, Arabs often greet each other by kissing on both cheeks. In Japan, people greet each other by bowing. In the United States, people shake hands to show their greeting. And in Thailand, if you want to signal a person to come near, you should move the fingers back and forth with the palm down. But in the United States, you ask someone to come by holding the palm up and moving the fingers towards our body.

　　Because of cultural differences, we should pay attention to how we use body language. In Turkey, putting one hands in one's pockets is a sign of disrespect when speaking to others. In some Asian countries, you must not touch the head of another person. And in China, people don’t kiss or hug each other , except his / her love.

　　All of the above shows it is important to know the meaning of gestures and movements . In foreign countries, we should follow their customs and learn their cultures,

　　so that we can communicate with local people in a correct way , not only by words, but also by body language.

　　1. All Of the following body languages mean the same in Chinese and American culture EXCEPT_________.

　　A. shaking hands with each other

　　B. nodding one's head

　　C. putting up a hand

　　D. touching the head of another person

　　2. If two people meet on the street and bow to each other to show their greetings, they are most probably from _______.

　　A. China

　　B. Arab

　　C. Japan

　　D. the US

　　3. Which of the following is a polite way to ask someone to come up to you in Thailand?
