12、每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案,并在答题卡上将相应的字母涂黑。Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage .One day, the principal came into our room and, after talking to the teacher, for some reason said: “I wish all of the white scholars to stand for a moment.” I rose with the others. The teacher
13、looked at me and, calling my name, said: “You sit down for the present, and rise with the others.” I did not quite understand her. She repeated: “You sit down now, and rise with the others.” I sat down puzzled and dumb. I saw and heard nothing. When the other were asked to rise, I did not know it. W
14、hen school was dismissed, I went out unconsciously. A few of the white boys laughed at me, saying: “Oh, youre a nigger, too.” I hurried on as fast as I could to where my lookingglass hung on the wall in my own little room. For an instant I was afraid to look, but when I did, I looked long and earnes
15、tly. I was accustomed to hearing remarks about my beauty; but now, for the first time, I became conscious of it and recognized it. I noticed the ivory (象牙) whiteness of my skin, the beauty of my mouth, the size and liquid darkness of my eyes. I ran downstairs and rushed to where my mother was sittin
16、g. I buried my head in her lap and cried out: “Mother, tell me, am I a nigger” I could not see her face, but I felt her hands on my head. I looked up into her face. There were tears in her eyes and I could see that she was suffering for me. And then it was that I looked at her critically for the fir
17、st time. I had thought of her in a childish way only as the most beautiful woman in the world; now I looked at her searching for defects. I could see that her skin was almost brown, and that she did differ in some way from the other ladies who came to the house; yet, even so I could see that she was
18、 more beautiful than any of them. She must have felt that I was examining her, for she hid her face in my hair and said with difficulty: “No, my darling, you are not a nigger.” She went on: “If anyone calls you a nigger, dont notice them.” But the more she talked, the less was I reassured, and I sto
19、pped her by asking: “Well, mother, am I white Are you white” She answered tremblingly: “No, I am not white, but your father is one of the greatest men in the country. The best blood of the South is in you.” This suddenly opened up in my heart a fresh fear, and I almost fiercely demanded: “Who is my
20、father Where is he” She stroked my hair and said: “Ill tell you about him some day.” I sobbed: “I want to know now.” She answered: “No, not now.”21. We can infer from the passage that “a nigger ”means_.A. a white person B. a black personC. anyone that is not white D. anyone that is not black22. When
21、 the teacher asked him to sit down and rise with the others, the author was confused because_.A. he never considered himself a non-white personB. he thought the teacher didnt recognize him C. he thought he should be consideredD. he thought it rude for the teacher to call his name23. It was on that d
22、ay that he began to realize that _.A. he was a nigger B. he was different from others because of his beauty C. his color was like that of his mother D. he differed from other white people even with his beauty24. From the passage we can learn that _.A. the boys father left them for some reasonsB. the
23、 boys mother didnt want to mention his father at allC. the boy never met his father beforeD. the boys mother hated his father passage generally tells us a story of _.A. a boy who suddenly realized that he was a colored person B. a boy who had been looked down upon because he had no fatherC. the mise
24、rable life of colored people D. the life of a one-parent familyPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. For Americans, time is a “resource” that, like water or coal, can be used well or poorly. “Time is money,” they say. “You only get so much time in this life; youd best use
25、 it wisely.” The future will not be better than the past or the present unless people use their time fro constructive, future-oriented activities. Thus, Americans admire a “well-organized” person, one who has a written list of things to do and a schedule for doing them. The ideal person is punctual
26、and treasures other peoples time. The American attitude towards time is not necessarily shared by others, especially non-Europeans. They are more likely to consider time as something that is simply there around them, not something they can “use”. One of the more difficult things many foreign busines
27、smen and students must adjust to in the States is the notion that time must be saved whenever possible and used wisely every day.In their efforts to use their time wisely, Americans are sometimes seen by foreign visitors as automatons, unhuman creatures who are so tied to their clocks and their sche
28、dules that they cannot participate in or enjoy the human interactions that are the truly important things in life. “They are like little machines running around,” one foreign visitor said.The emphasis Americans place on efficiency is closely related to their concepts of the future, change and time.
29、To do something efficiently is to do it in the way that is quickest and requires the smallest investment of resources. American businesses sometimes hire “efficiency experts” to review their operations and suggest ways in which they could accomplish more than they are currently accomplishing with th
30、e resources they are investing. Popular periodicals carry suggestions for more efficient ways to clean house, raise children, tend the yard, and so on.In this context the “fast-food industry” can be seen as a clear example of an American cultural product. McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Pizza Hut
31、, and other fast-food establishments prosper in a country where many people want to minimize the amount of time they spend preparing and eating meals. The millions of Americans who take their meals at fast-food restaurants cannot have much interest in lingering over their food while conversing with
32、friends, as millions of Europeans do. As McDonalds restaurants have spread around the world, they have been viewed as symbols of American society and culture, bringing not just hamburgers but an emphasis on speed, efficiency, and shiny cleanliness. The typical American food, some observers argue, is fast food.26. If
