Anger is a kind of feeling. Many things can make you angry. When your teacher gives you too much
homework, when your team loses an important game, when a friend borrows your favorite video game and then
breaks it, you can get really angry.
Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red, and
you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes you hide your anger. For example, you may hide
it in your heart. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt.
In fact, it’s not good to hide your anger, and it’s important for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be
学科网（北京）股份有限公司let out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself.
When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. It’s helpful to talk about your anger with an adult,
such as a parent, a teacher, etc. When you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away. Here are some
other things you can do when you start to feel angry: talk to a good friend; count from 1 to 100; give someone a
hug; go for a bike ride; think about good things, etc.
Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse. Don’t let your anger
control you.
31. According to the passage, which of the followings WON’T make you angry?
A. a lot of homework
B. Losing a game.
C. Getting something from your friends
D. Your broken video game.
32. It’s better to ____ when feeling angry.
A. hide it B. hit someone
C. talk about it D. breathe faster
33. From the passage, we know that it is _________to get angry.
A. helpful B. normal(正常的) C. wrong D. strange
C
Some people think that they have an answer to the problems of automobile crowding and pollution in large
cities. Their answer is the bicycle, or bike.
In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders
have even formed a group called "Bike for a Better City". They claim that if more people rode bicycles to work
there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown section of the city and therefore less dirty air from car
engines.
For several years this group has been trying to get city government to help bicycle riders. For example, they
want the city to paint special lanes—for bicycles only—on some of the main streets, because when bicycle riders
must use the same lanes as cars, there may be accidents. "Bike for a Better City" feels that if there were special
lanes, more people would use bikes.
But no bicycle lanes have been painted yet. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea. Taxi drivers don't like the
idea—they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don't like the idea—they say that if there
,
is less traffic they will have less business. And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central
Park—the largest open place in New York—is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only. But
"Bike for a Better City" says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown. Until that
happens, the safest place to bicycle may be in the park.
34. The underlined word "automobiles" in the second paragraph means ________.
A. trains B. cars C. planes D. ships
35. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Special lanes are needed on every street.
B. The Central Park is closed to cars on weekdays.
C. "Bike for a Better City" members ride bicycles to work.
.
D Accidents won't happen if cars and bikes are on different lanes.
36. This passage is mainly about ________.
A. city problems and "Bike for a Better City"
B. "Bike for a Better City" and the city government
C. the government's idea on traffic and city pollution
D. advice on the city problems of traffic and pollution
D
Time is not a fixed object. The idea of time in any given culture is largely a product created by beliefs,
traditions, and values. In some cases, time is thought of as formless and is based on what is going on at the
moment, rather than as a planned object. Others regard time as a machine: a real thing which is fixed, which can be
divided into schedules (日程安排) and can be wasted.
Similarly, cultures are also likely to think of the passing of time in different ways as well. A society can be
moved towards a specific (特定化的) understanding of history. Many cultures, such as British, Native American,
Greek, French, Japanese, and some other Asian cultures, take the past, cultural history, and traditions as having the
most importance, and use them as a guide in making present-day decisions. Some cultures see the present moment
as the most important. Tradition holds little importance, and planning for the future is not the most important thing,
but rather the present time is more valued, and these kinds of lifestyles are relaxed. Other societies can be future-
oriented (关注未来的), and place an additional focus on planning and forward movement, and the present activities
are treated as a bridge to this future goal. This is the common agreement in the United States.
How a person thinks of time can be understood in the way they work together with others. Someone with a
focus on the future will hold schedules and times to be very important, as they are necessary for moving on to the
学科网（北京）股份有限公司next step. However, someone who lives more in the present may consider a certain meeting time as not fixed. In
Italy and in many Arab countries, it is normal for people to be 30 minutes late for a meeting. It is different in the
United States or Britain, for example, where lateness is accepted only up to 5 or 10 minutes.
The concept (概念) of time, and its flexibility (灵活多变), meaning, and even the nature of its existence (存
在) is something which is deeply laid in the base of any culture. It is very important when entering into an
agreement with someone, whether socially, or in a business setting, to realize that they may have a different idea
about the importance of deadlines and schedules. No one can be right or wrong in their own way, but still people
can be accidentally insulted (冒犯) as a result of a misunderstanding.
37. From the first paragraph, we can know that ________.
A. people think of time as a sign of culture
B. people have different opinions about time
C. time is about what's going on right now
D. time is either a planned object or a machine
38. The past might be thought of as the most important because ________.
A. it helps us to make present decisions B. it helps us to plan for the future
C. traditions bring us much pride D. old countries have a long history
39. Which example best describes a present-oriented culture?
A. Making a plan for tomorrow's work. B. Planning a tour to the Forbidden City.
C. Eating dumplings during a festival. D. Never paying attention to the weather report.
40. What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Concept of Time B. The Importance of Time
C. The Tradition of Time D. The Management of Time
四、阅读简答
阅读短文，根据其内容回答问题。
Do you want a happier, healthier family? Here's a simple way: Eat with your family more often.
Increasingly, researchers are discovering the importance of family mealtime. Several recent studies have
pointed to the same result: Children who often eat dinner with their parents are happier and have fewer behavior
problems.
Dr. Blake Bowden, an American researcher, carried out one study. He found that young people who have
family dinners at least five times a week may not use drugs. They are often happier and do better in school.
Clearly, family dinners are important for a child's development. Why? Because dinnertime offers busy families
学科网（北京）股份有限公司a good chance to sit down together and talk. The relaxing conversation at the dinner table helps keep good family
relationships (关系). And good family relationships help children develop self-respect and a sense of belonging.
Family relationships can also influence a person's health. One study shows that children who enjoy close
relationships with their mothers will not develop serious health problems.
Sadly, however, meaningful family time is too often forgotten. Parents are busy working and children are busy
studying for tests. According to Dr. Blake's study, nearly 25 percent of people say that they have little time for
family.
According to another study, people spend only about 50 minutes of free time with family each day. And those
50 minutes are not well spent on meaningful conversations, either. Many parents say they know little about their
children's friends.
So how can families find more time for each other? How can they enjoy more family meals and
conversations? They need to make choices. For children, they'd better not spend so much on their tests, but they
may risk (冒险) falling behind their classmates. For parents, they need to go back home earlier and risk not getting
a high position.
But for families who do make those tough choices, the rewards are rich. Making time to eat dinner with family
does more than feed the body—it nourishes (滋养) the heart.
41. Are family dinners important for children?
