阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A ★★☆☆☆

In 2012, I had just recovered from a serious illness when I received an invitation to a writer’s conference in Orlando, Florida. My family and friends persuaded me that a holiday might be just what the doctor ordered, so off I went.

Arriving in the Sunshine State was not easy, but I managed to catch a taxi to the hotel. The next morning, I caught another taxi to do some shopping. Later I went to a café to buy some lunch, but having my sandwich and drink in my hands, I saw that all the tables were occupied (占用). Then I heard a friendly voice saying, “You can share my table.”

I thankfully sat down with the smiling elderly lady and we shared a happy lunch together. As the meal drew to a close she asked how long I would be in Orlando. I had already told her that I hadn’t hired (租用) a car, and hadn’t realised how costly taking taxis would be. After a while she said, “My dear, don’t use any more taxis. It would be my pleasure to drive you wherever you wish.”

I told her that I couldn’t put her to that trouble, but she insisted. She took details of where I was staying and the next morning she drove me to Disney World. She took me through the park’s gates and spent some time with me before leaving me to explore alone. At the end of the day, she returned to take me back to my hotel. The next few days, she drove me around Orlando’s tourist areas. I offered her money but she refused to take any.

When we had lunch on my last day, I thanked her for her kindness. I’ll never forget that wonderful lady who filled my holiday in Florida with wonderful memories.

21. The author went to Orlando to _____.

A. see a doctor                  

B. attend a meeting    

C. meet a friend

A. hard-working            B. good-looking         C. well-known          D. kind-hearted

24. What’s the best title for the text?

A. My holiday hero

B ★★★☆☆

What you communicate through your body language and nonverbal signals affects how others see you, how well they like and respect you, and whether or not they trust you. Unfortunately, many people send confusing nonverbal signals without even knowing it.

Jack, Ted and Arlene are all speakers who have got disastrous results while communicating with others.

Jack believes he gets along great with others, but if you were to ask any of them, they would say that Jack makes them feel afraid. Rather than just look at you, he seems to eat you with his eyes. And he often shakes your hand so hard that it hurts. Jack is a caring guy who secretly wishes he had more friends, but his

nonverbal awkwardness (笨拙) keeps people at a distance.

Ted is good-looking, hard-working, and a smooth talker, but he seems to care more about his thoughts than others. When someone has something to say, Ted’s wild eyes make him look like he wants to speak before they have finished. His inability to listen to others makes him unpopular with many people.

Arlene is funny and attractive, but even though she keeps laughing and smiling, she looks nervous. Her shoulders and eyebrows (眉毛) are noticeably raised, her voice is high, and her body is stiff. Being around Arlene makes many people feel uncomfortable.

These smart, well-intentioned people try their best to connect with others. The sad thing is that they have no idea of the nonverbal messages they communicate. If you want to communicate effectively, avoid misunderstandings, and enjoy trusting relationships, it’s important to understand how to use body language.

25. What’s the problem with Jack?

A. He can’t keep a secret.

B. He behaves improperly.

C. He hates making friends.

D. He means to frighten others.

26. What do people think about Ted?

A. He is caring.

B. He is interesting.

C. He is not a good listener.

D. He is not a smooth talker.

27. How is the text mainly developed?

A. By using examples.

B. By giving instructions.

C. By presenting findings.

D. By providing explanations.

28. What’s the main idea of the text?

A. How to read body language.

B. How to improve body language.

C. Types of nonverbal communication.   

D. Nonverbal communication in relationships. 

C ★★★★☆

Only Fools and Horses

The series mixes satire (讽刺), drama and great jokes to produce something that is both laugh-out-loud funny and packed with pity.

A hit across the world, from Montenegro to Belgium, Only Fools and Horses can truly be said to be one of the television greats, as it continues to be repeated, loved, and picked up by new audiences almost 30 years since it first appeared on television screens.

 

Open All Hours

With comedy giants Ronnie Baker and David Jason both on screen together it isn’t a surprise that this is a much loved comedy. Granville’s half-hearted attempts to find excitement in his boring life and Arkwright’s penny-pinching (吝啬的), shop-proud ways will make you laugh aloud.

There are so many moments that people remember — be it Arkwright’s stutter (口吃) and Granville’s adventurous deliveries. It was these moments and many more that will help ensure that Open All Hours will be repeated and loved by audiences for many more years to come.

 

Fawlty Towers

One of, if not the most well-loved British comedy of all time, the importance and popularity of Fawlty Towers is difficult to exaggerate (夸大).

The series was set with unreasonable but believable characters and wonderful performances. Add in excellent short jokes and exciting dialogue, and you get this most popular and well-loved series.

 

Blackadder

The four series of Blackadder remain highly regarded and extremely popular almost 30 years after they began.

The only real exception to this is the first series, which is considered by many as being unfunny. However, it’s completely different from the other series of Blackadder. The humour is darker and less silly.

However, because it combines historical research with jokes, satire and some of the cleverest and funniest replies that have ever appeared on British television, Blackadder is hard not to be loved by many people.

29. If you’re a fan of Ronnie Baker, you may choose _____.

A. Blackadder       

B. Fawlty Towers

C. Open All Hours 

D. Only Fools and Horses

30. Both Only Fools and Horses and Fawlty Towers _____.

A. mix short jokes with satire  

B. are popular among audiences 

C. explore the pitiful side of humans       

D. have been put on across the world

31. What can you expect from the Blackadder series?

A. Dark humour.         

B. Unreasonable characters.   

C. Adventurous stories.      

D. Historical facts.

D ★★★☆☆

My parents both love to listen to their car radios. They also love their ongoing argument about which is better — satellite radio or local, publicly supported stations. I get a lot of pleasure from hearing them try to persuade each other of their friendly arguments. They each try to persuade me, too. Both cars have nice sound systems, so they all sound great to me. I refuse to take sides.

When I ride with my mother, she listens to radio programs on one of the two local public stations that serve our area. One is a classical music station broadcast by a university. I have to admit, the music usually sounds great, and they also cover college sports and other local events. The other station is an all-volunteer station that plays different kinds of music and news programs. Both stations are mostly listener-supported, which gives them a nice community (社区) feel. It also gives the programmers freedom to play what they want to hear. Mom loves very much the idea of having members of the community give small amounts of money toward something we can all enjoy.

When I’m in the car with my dad, he listens to satellite radio. He pays a small amount of money for the satellite radio, and he thinks it is a great bargain. He says he loves having so many stations to choose from, including all kinds of music and news choices.

Mom’s public radio is certainly simpler and much closer to home, but I also enjoy what Dad plays on his car radio. Each has its own merits. I like things just the way they are. I feel like I have the best of both radio worlds.

32. What can we learn about the author’s mother?

A. She loves satellite radio very much.

B. She has a strong sense of community.

C. She likes listening to the radio at home. 

D. She works as a volunteer at a radio station.

33. Compared with local public radio, satellite radio _____.

A. offers more music programs

B. is mainly listener-supported

C. has more station choices 

D. is free of charge 

34. The underlined word “merits” in the last paragraph can best be replaced by “_____”.

A. advantages                B. problems              C. chances               D. mistakes

35. Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?

(P: Paragraph)

Budgets can help people know how they are spending their money. Keeping a budget can be difficult, but there is always a budget that will work for you.

To start a budget, you first need to know how much money you have in a particular amount of time.  36  Others keep weekly budgets.

Second, you need to know what you spend your money on — your costs.  37  Separate them into the correct groups with similar costs in the same group.

 38  You must subtract (减去) all the costs you collected from the amount of money you have each week or month. If the result is less than zero, then you have spent more than you have. If the number is more than zero, then you have stayed within your budget! You can put the extra money into savings.  39 

Finally, write out your budget. You must set apart a particular amount of money for each group. The number represents how much you can spend for that group each week or month.

After making a budget it is important to continue writing down all of your costs. When you spend money, write the cost next to the correct group.  40  It will also let you know when you have saved enough money to buy special things for yourself like clothes, coffee, or a film.

A. Many people keep monthly budgets.

B. Then you need to do some mathematics!

C. Put these amounts into your budget first.

D. Keep a list of all your costs for one or two weeks.

E. Sometimes you may forget to write down the costs.

F. Or you can put the extra money into next week’s budget.

G. This is how you will know if you are spending too much on one group.

For some people, making friends are easy. For others, they can be a problem. People who make friends easily knew how to be themselves. There’s old saying: “A friend is someone who knows you well and likes you anyway.” So there are three simpler things you can do to making friends. First, you have to like yourself. Next, learn to listen to. For friendships to succeed, you need to show an interest to others. Finally, it’s a good idea to join a club or take a class. That way, you meet people who have different interests. Good friends usual like the same things.
