China is a land of bicycles. At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them,all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year,I've found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However,people still use their bicycles to get around. For many,it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors---silver,green,red,blue,yellow,whatever you want.
It's fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads,move skillfully through traffic,and ride even on sidewalks(人行道).Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.
Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture,I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的).To be safe,I stayed with a “pack”of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times.I didn't want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide,so crossing took time,skill and a little bit of luck.
I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.
21. According to the author,why are bicycles still popular in China today? _______
A. Because they are traditional and safe. B. Because they are fast and environment friendly.
C. Because they are colorful and available D. Because they are convenient and inexpensive.
22. The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended ______.
A. to ride it for fun
B. to experience local culture
C. to use it for transport
D. to improve his riding skills
23. How did the author feel about his street crossing?
A. It was boring.
B. It was lively.
C. It was difficult.
D. It was wonderful.
24. Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience? ______
A. The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.
B. The author took great pleasure in biking.
C. The author was praised by the other bikers.
D. The author was annoyed by the air while riding.
B
Nothing could stop Dad. After he was put on disability for a bad back, he bought a small farm in the country, just enough to grow food for the family. He planted vegetables, fruit trees and even kept bees for honey.
And every week he cleaned Old Man McColgin’s chicken house in exchange for manure(肥料).The smell really burned the inside of your nose. When we complained about the terrible smell, Dad said the stronger the manure, the healthier the crops, and he was right. For example, just one of his cantaloupes filled the entire house with its sweet smell, and the taste was even sweeter.
As the vegetables started coming in, Dad threw himself into cooking. One day, armed with a basket of vegetables, he announced he was going to make stew(炖菜).Dad pulled out a pressure cooker and filled it up with cabbages, eggplants, potatoes, corns, onions and carrots. For about half an hour, the pressure built and the vegetables cooked. Finally, Dad turned off the stove, the pot began to cool and the pressure relief valve sprayed out a cloud of steam. If we thought Dad’s pile of chicken manure was bad, this was 10 times worse. When Dad took off the lid, the smell nearly knocked us out.
Dad carried the pot out and we opened doors and windows to air out the house. Just how bad was it? The neighbors came out of their houses to see if we had a gas leak!
Determined, Dad filled our plates with steaming stew and passed them around. It didn’t look that bad, and after the first wave had shut down my ability to smell, it didn’t offend the nose so much, either. I took a taste. It would never win a prize in a cooking competition, but it was surprisingly edible, and we drank up every last drop of soup!
25. Why did Dad clean Old Man McColgin’s chicken house regularly?
A. To earn some money for the family.
B. To get rid of the terrible smell.
C. To collect manure for his crops.
D. To set a good example to us.
26. What can we infer about Dad’s stew?
A. It is popular among the neighbors. B .It tastes quite delicious.
C. It looks very wonderful. D. It contains honey and vegetables
27. What does the underlined word“offend”in the last paragraph mean?
A. To attract.
B. To shut.
C. To air.
D. To upset.
28. What can we learn about Dad from the text?
A. He is an experienced cook. B. He has a positive attitude to life.
C. He is a troublesome father. D. He suffers a lot from his disability
C

They wear the latest fashions with the most uptodate accessories(配饰).Yet these are not girls in their teens or twenties but women in their sixties and seventies. A generation which would once only wear oldfashioned clothes is now favouring the same high street looks worn by those half their age.
Professor Julia Twigg,a social policy expert,said,“Women over 75 are now shopping
for clothes more often than they did when they were young in the 1960s.In the 1960s buying a coat for a woman was a serious matter. It was an expensive item that they would purchase only every three or four years—now you can pick one up at the supermarket whenever you wish to. Fashion is a lot cheaper and people get tired of things more quickly.”
Professor Twigg analysed family expenditure(支出)data and found that while the percentage of spending on clothes and shoes by women had stayed around the same—at 5 or 6 per cent of spending—the amount of clothes bought had risen sharply.
The professor said.“Clothes are now 70 per cent cheaper than they were in the 1960s because of the huge expansion of production in the Far East. In the 1960s Leeds was the heart of the British fashion industry and that was where most of the clothes came from,but now almost all of our clothes are sourced elsewhere. Everyone is buying more clothes but in general we are not spending more money on them.”
Angela Barnard,who runs her own fashion business in London,said older women were much more affected by celebrity(名流)style than in previous years.
She said,“When people see stars such as Judi Dench and Helen Mirren looking attractive and fashionable in their sixties,they want to follow them. Older women are much more aware of celebrities. There's also the boom in TV programmes showing people how they can change their look,and many of my older customers do yoga to stay in shape well in their fifties. When I started my business a few years ago,my older customers tended to be very rich,but now they are what I would call ordinary women. My own mother is 61 and she wears the latest fashions in a way she would never have done ten years ago.”
32. Professor Twigg found that,compared with the 1960s,______.
A. the price of clothes has generally fallen by 70%
B. the spending on clothes has increased by 5% or 6%
C. people spend 30% less than they did on clothes
D. the amount of clothes bought has risen by 5% or 6%
33. What can we learn about old women in terms of fashion?
A. They are often ignored by fashion designers.
B. They are more interested in clothes because of their old age.
C. They are regarded as pioneers in the latest fashion.
D. They are now more easily influenced by stars.
34. It can be concluded that old women tend to wear the latest fashions today mainly because ______.
A. they get tired of things more quickly
B. clothes are much cheaper than before
C. they are in much better shape now
D. TV shows teach them how to change their look
35. Which is the best possible title of the passage?
A. Age Is No Barrier for Fashion Fans
B. The More Fashionable,the Less Expensive
C. Unexpected Changes in Fashion
D. Boom of the British Fashion Industry

Mr. Brown thanked her for all the wonderful posters and gave her a professional artist’s set. “Thank you ,” she cried.
I 58 , at that time when I was looking at her excited face, she’d probably never 59 anything in her whole life.

Dear Jeremy and Alice,
Although we've been delighted to have you as neighbors, we're hoping to settle something that bothers to us. In a word, your dog—Cleo.
We've called several time about Cleo's early morning barking. It is difficult to understanding why she barks every minute she's outside. The early morning barking have been disturbing us as we are often up all night with the baby. Beside, Cleo tends to bark a average of six hours a day. This morning she starts barking even before 5 o'clock. That is too much for us, considering how closely the houses are.
We appreciate our apologies and goodwill, but we hope that you can figure a good way of settling the matter.
Sincerely,
Jack and Rose

试题分析:
( 1)多词 bother为及物动词,后面直接加宾语,不用加to。故去掉to。
( 2)错词 several修饰可数名词复数。故time改为times。
( 3)错词 It is difficult to do sth.意为做某事有困难。故understanding改为understand。
( 4)错词 The early morning barking作主语,谓语动词应该用第三人称单数形式。故have改为has。
( 5)错词 根据句意,此处应为“除此之外 (besides)”, beside意为在…旁边。故beside改为besides。
( 6)错词average为元音字母开头,应该用不定冠词an修饰。故a改为an。
( 7)错词 今天早上发生的事情应该用一般过去时。故 starts 改为started。
( 8)错词 本句为感叹句,其陈述句为 the house are close,形容词在系动词本be之后。其感叹句也应该用形容词。故closely改为close。
( 9)错词 根据句意为我接受了你们的道歉。故 our改为your。
( 10)缺词 根据句意希望你找一个合适的方式解决这个问题。 figure out理解,解决。故在figure后添加out。

Dear Tony,
We have planned several activities. When we get there, we will visit the elderly in their rooms in groups, presenting them with flowers and self-made cards to show our respect and love. Then we will do some cleaning and washing for them with the help of the nurses.
As some old people feel lonely, we may chat with them about their old days, changes of our city, or anything they are interested in. we may also give them some performances: singing, dancing, and so on.
I am sure we will both gain a better understanding of the elderly in China. If you have any suggestions, please let us know.
