though he had just finished a big dinner,he managed to win the contest.Not only did he win a bottle of nice whiskey,but also a big box of expensive Hong Kong mooncakes.A few days later,I was hosting an opening party for my new office.Jonathan showed up with the lovely box of Hong Kong mooncakes he had won the other night.I thought it was a lovely joke,and the mooncakes were delicious.Still,it got me thinking about the concept of regifting in China.In the States,we have a tradition around Christmas similar to giving mooncakes,only we call them fruitcakes.Fruitcakes are made from terrible preserved(加工过的)fruit and nobody likes to eat them.You often find your friends giving the fruitcake you gave them to someone else,and so on.But fruitcakes aside,it isn t very often to catch someone regifting something in America,as it s seen to be very cheap and embarrassing(尴尬的).An obvious way to tell if something has been regifted is to check the wrapping(包装).However,many of my friends in China will proudly regift an old gift,especially if it is still wrapped in a pretty box.I find it somewhat uncomfortable to receive a gift that I know wasn t bought for me.But I also understand that the gift is perfectly good,it just lacks the special meaning of being picked out by a friend.There are many occasions in Chinese culture when gifts are necessary.There are traditional items such as tea,cigarettes and liquor which seem fine to regift.These gifts are not personal and have no special meaning.But is it really proper to give someone something that was never bought for them in the first place?41 This article is written to.Apraise some customs in China Bquestion a social practice Cshow how to regift Dtell an embarrassing story 42 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?AAmericans often regift things on holidays.BRegifting can hardly be seen in China.CIt is comfortable to be seen to regift in America.DIt is acceptable to regift some traditional items in China.43 The second paragraph is mainly about in the USA.Agiving fruitcakes Bregifting Cchecking the wrapping of gifts DChristmas tradition 44 The author thinks it really uncomfortable to receive .Aan expensive gift from a close friend Ba gift given again by a friend Csome items such as tea and cigarettes Da box of mooncakes from Hong Kong B I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would better like to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city.Weren t it for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village.But how realistic is the dream?Cities can be frightening places.The majority of the population live in huge tower blocks,noisy,dirty,cold and unfeeling.The sense of belonging to a community tends（倾向）to disappear when you live fifteen floors up.All you can see from your window is sky,or other blocks of flats.Strangely enough,whereas in the past the inhabitants（居民）of one street all knew each other,nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don t even say hello to each other.Country life,on the other hand,differs from this kind of isolated（隔离）existence because a sense of community generally ties the inhabitants of small villages together.But country life has disadvantages too.It is true that you are cut off from the exciting and important events that take place in cities.There s little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie.Shopping becomes a major problem,and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on and expedition to the nearest large town.The city-people who leave for the country are often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness and quietness.What,then,of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring“morning”to the locals as they pass by?I m eager for the idea,but you see there s my cat,Toby.I m not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass.I mean,can you see him mixing with all those hearty males down the farm?No,he would rather have the electric fire any evening.45.We learn from Paragraph 1 that the writer.A.used to live in the country B.used to work in the city C.works in the city.D.lives in the country.46.In the writer s opinion,the following may cause city people to be unhappy EXCEPT _.A.a strong sense of fear B.a lack of communication.C.housing conditions.D.a sense of isolation.47.The text implies that it is NOT easy to buy in the country.A.agricultural produce B.fresh fruits C.fresh vegetable D.designed clothes 48.Which of the following words best describes those people who work in large cities and live in villages?A.Original B.Quiet C.Proud D.Senseless C“How s the basketball coming on?”I put down my drink and looked across at the next table.I was curious about that because both the man and the woman were at least 65.“Oh,I m not playing much basketball these days,”the woman replied.“But I m getting much better at golf.”What s this,I thought.I opened my packet of crisps,thoughtfully.“I m still pretty hopeless at chess,I m afraid,”the man said.“It beat me on level one this morning.”The penny dropped.These two were the proud owners of computer games.It s very likely that one of the results of the development of the silicon chip(硅片)will be that a lot of people will have more exciting ways to spend their leisure time.It already has.Space invader machines are now a familiar sight everywhere.A lot of people play them,and some,particularly school children,get remarkably high scores.How,one wonders,do they find the time(and money)to become so good?If you have your own computers,the possibilities are endless.You can play any active sports without stepping out of your living room.You can become an expert at chess or backgammon without ever playing with another human being.Indeed,human beings aren t needed at all.So,what of the future?Will we see school children stealing or even robbing to feed space invader machines?Will football grounds lie empty as families sit at home playing video football,or watching the national video football championship?Perhaps,it won t go that far.But we won t have to wait long for the Video Olympics.I m sure of that.Back in the pub,I stood up,took out 20 pence,and went over to the space invader machine.I may not be much good at beating computers at backgammon,but any space invaders who arrive on Earth anywhere near me had better watch out.49.The reason why the writer felt curious about the talk between the couple was that _.A.he thought they were too old to play basketball B.they looked young for their age C.the old seldom went to the bar D.he didn t believe they played basketball so well 50.The underlined sentence“The penny dropped.”in the fifth paragraph probably means _.A.his wallet was stolen B.he dropped a penny into the space invader machine C.he asked for another drink for a penny D.he s come to see what they meant 51.The text is mainly written to tell us that _.A.computers will make people have a better time in their leisure time B.the writer was worried about the side effect of computers C.the old couple were excellent at playing golf D.school children shouldn t play space invader machines so much 52.We can infer form the passage that _.A.we can do everything without leaving our home in the future B.the writer was good at playing the space invader game C.school children will certainly steal or rob to feed the space invader machines D.the woman is better at playing chess than the man D The gray-haired lady can t wait to leave the building to search for her dad.Unless watched,she will walk in the streets in an effort to find her father,who died 30 years ago.Not all cases of Alzheimer s disease look like this,but Alzheimer s is a serious disease that is said to be the fourth or fifth leading cause of death for people over age 75.It is said that about three percent of the U.S.population over age 65 have Alzheimer s.In the early stages,people may exhibit short term memory loss.Some may experience changes in personality,easy to be angry.As the disease progresses,patients might lose the ability to move and may be unable to speak or move at all.This progressive disease generally lasts 8 to 10 years before death occurs.While no one is certain what causes these changes in the brain s nerve fibers（神经纤维）,their effect is certain.Alzheimer s destroys not only the patients,but also spouses（配偶）,friends and families.What should you do if you notice progressive memory loss in yourself or a loved one?Have the person examined by a doctor who is a specialist in the treatment of Alzheimer s disease.Though many reasons other than Alzheimer s disease may cause memory loss,its early diagnosis（诊断）and treatment may delay some of the most serious effects.What feeling will you likely experience should a loved one suffer from Alzheimer s disease?A person will often go through the various stages of sadness,shock,anger,and so on.If the spouse develops the disease,you may experience hurt and disappointment when he or she doesn t remember you are married.Life for the Alzheimer s patients and their loved ones will never be the same as the disease progresses,bringing a deep sorrow,loss and even anger towards God.No matter what feelings are present,facing them honestly will serve one better than burying them.53What can be inferred from the passage about the gray-haired day?AShe has been living with her father.B.She was sad about the death of her father.CShe can t search for her father without being watched.D.She suffers from Alzheimer s disease.54When people suffer from Alzheimer s disease,_.Atheir families and friends will suffer from the same diseaseBtheir families and friends will experience mental sufferingsCthey will certainly die in 8 to 10 years Dthey will forget everybody but their spouses55Memory loss occurs _.Afrom Alzheimer s disease and nothing else Bfrom sadness,shock,anger,and so onCfor a number of reasons D with changes in personality56From the passage we know that .Aearly treatment may stop Alzheimer s disease occurringB
