It is not 1 for a woman like me to go shopping. Why do I say that? Firstly, I have three children
to look 2. My husband doesn't even know how to 3 them. I think it's my own fault. I always do all
the things myself instead of （而不是） teaching 4. So I feel very 5 every day though I am a homemaker
（家庭主妇） . Maybe I think I feel even more tired than my husband. How can I find free time to 6? If
I do, how should I do with my three children? The oldest of them is only five years old. Secondly, I
am getting much 7. So it's hard for me to find clothes that fit me well. Lastly, and I think it's the
most 8. We don't have enough 9 for pretty clothes. We have to raise （养育） so many children with the
little money that my husband gains. Oh, how I regret （后悔） that I had so many children that I am living
such a 10 life.

On June 26, 2000, two scientists, called Francis Collins and Craig Venter, told the world that
they could now read the whole "map" of the human body: DNA. DNA is something that everybody has, and
it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get
some of their DNA to make our own.
People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Gregor Mendel
discovered a special reason why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small
things named "genes" in our body. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery and
found out that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Matthaei found a message in DNA showing how DNA tells the
cell( 细胞 )to build its parts. Scientists have now found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do
not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one "word" means, we can help save more people
from several illnesses.
Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry
that when people begin to know more words and find out lots of other information, we might use it in
a wrong way, just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people from getting jobs. Man would have
to meet a lot of trouble if DNA technology( 技术 )wasn't limited( 限制)in use.
（1）When did we first know why we look like other people in our family?
A . In 2000.
B . In 1953.
C . In 1961.
D . In 1860.
（2）What did the two scientists first discover in 1961?
A . The "map" of DNA
B . A new illness
C . A message of DNA
D . The language of DNA
（3）What can we do if we understand some "words" of the language inside the body?
A . Make people get new jobs.
B . Make medicine for illnesses.
C . Make maps of human.
第 3 页 共 12 页D . Make people less attractive.
（4）What do people think about this work?
A . It can cause good or bad results.
B . It can cause only good results.
C . It can cause good results but won't work.
D . It can cause only bad results.

Sunday is more like Monday than it used to be. Places of business that used 1o keep daytime "business
hours" are now open late into the night. And on the Internet, the hour of the day and the day of the
week have become irrelevant ( 无关的 ). A half century ago in the United States, most people experienced
strong and precise dividing lines between days of rest and days of work, school time and summer time.
Today the boundaries still exist, but they seem not clear.
The law in almost all states used to require stores to close on Sunday; in most, it no longer does.
It used to keep the schools open in all seasons except summer; in most, it still does. And whether the
work week should strengthen its legal limits, or whether it should become more "flexible," is often debated.
How should we, as a society, organize our time? Should we go even further in relaxing the boundaries
of time until we live in a world in which every minute is much like every other?
These are not easy questions even to ask. Part of the difficulty is that we rarely recognize the
"law of time" even when we meet it face to face. We know as children that we have to attend school a
certain number of hours, days and years but unless we meet the truant officer( 学监 ) , we may well think
that we should go to school due to social custom and parents' demand rather than to the law. As adults
we are familiar with "extra pay for overtime working," but less familiar with the fact that what makes
up "overtime" is a matter of legal definition ( 法律规定 ). When we turn the clock forward to start
daylight-saving time, have we ever thought to ourselves: Here is the law in action? As we shall see,
there is a lot of law that has great influence on how to organize and use time: compulsory education
law, overtime law, and daylight-saving law as well as law about Sunday closing, holidays, being late
to work, time zones, and so on. Once we begin to look for it, we will have no trouble finding a law of
time to examine and rate.
（1）By saying" Sunday is more like Monday than it used to be", the writer mans that _______________.
A . work time is equal to rest time
B . many people have a day off on Monday
C . it is hard for people to decide when to rest
D . the line between work time and rest time is unclear
（ 2 ） The author raises the questions in Paragraph 2 to introduce the fact that people
_______________.
A . fail to make full use of their time
第 4 页 共 12 页B . enjoy working overtime for extra pay
C . are unaware of the law of time
D . welcome flexible working hours
（3）According to the passage, most children tend to believe that they go to school because they
_______________.
A . need to acquire knowledge
B . have to obey their parents
C . need to find companions
D . have to observe the law
（4）What is the main idea of the passage?
A . Our life is governed by the law of time.
B . How to organize time is not worth debating.
C . New ways of using time change our society.
D . Our time schedule is decided by social customs.

“How are you?” is a nice question. It's a friendly way that people in the U.S.A greet each other.
But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It's a question that often doesn't need an answer.
The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person's friend isn't
fine. The reason is that “How are you? ” isn't really a question and “Fine” isn't really an answer.
They are simply other ways of saying “Hello ” or “Hi”.
Sometimes, people also don't say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you
agree?”, the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you're Wrong... ” But it isn't very
polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I'm not sure. ” It's a nicer way to say
that you don't agree with someone.
People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people.
For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say “I've to go now. ” Often, the person
who wants to hang up gives an excuse( 藉口): “Someone's at the door. ” “Something is burning on the
stove. ” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want
to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn't hurt the
other person.
第 6 页 共 12 页Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don't
say exactly that they are thinking. It's an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and
it's part of the game of language.
（1）When a person in America asks “How are you? ” he or she wants to hear “ ”
A . How are you?
B . Hello.
C . I don't know.
D . Fine.
（2）When a person disagrees with someone, it is polite to say “ . ”
A . You are wrong. I disagree
B . I'm not sure
C . I'm sure I disagree
D . No, I disagree
（3）A polite way to finish talk is to say “ . ”
A . You have to go now
B . I want to hang up
C . I have to go now
D . I don't want to talk any more
（4）When a person says “I've to go now. Someone's at the door. ” the person may be________.
A . giving an excuse
B . hurting someone's feeling
C . ill
D . asking you a question
（5）The rule of the game of language is probably .
A . Always say what you mean
B . Don't disagree with people
C . Never say exactly what you're thinking
D . Be polite
