Do you like to eat quickly? Do you like inexpensive food? Some people go to fast-food restaurants for these reasons. In the past, people usually went to diners (路边小餐馆)for these reasons. In fact, many people in the State still go to diners today for the same reasons.A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. It was not really a diner. It was only a food cart. People on the street walked up to the cart to buy food. These carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and all late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with counters and stools and people sat down while they ate. Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dish, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. They are usually buildings with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booths, and tables and chairs. People can eat all three meals in a modern diner.Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonalds and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.36. A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. Why is diner in quotation marks(引号)?A. Because it is spelled differently from “dinner”.B. Because diner was a new word.C. Because the first diner was not a real diner.D. Because it is a special kind of restaurant.37. What meals did the first diners serve?A. Only breakfast. B. Only night-meals. C. Only lunch. D. All of the above.38. According to paragraph 3, diners changed in _.A. two ways B. three ways C. four ways D. five ways39. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Diners existed before fast-food restaurant.B. The menu included more food than sandwiches and coffee.C. Burger King is a fast-food restaurant.D. Sandwiches became bigger.40. The main idea of the passage is that _.A. the diner is a traditional and popular place to eat in the United StatesB. Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come insideC. American diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customersD. diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many waysBThere is a common belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever considered spelling unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, quite different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is how to encourage a child to express himself freely in writing without holding him back with spelling.If spelling becomes the only point of his teachers interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will write only words within his spelling range. Thats why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: “This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling mistakes.” It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad thing for the teacher who had omitted (略过) to read the composition, which contained some beautiful expressions of the childs deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the mistakes, but if his priority had centered on the childs ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more hope to seek improvement.41. Teachers differ in their opinions about A. the difficulties in teaching spelling B. the necessity of teaching spellingC. the importance of the basic writing skills D. the role of spelling in general language development 42. The expression “play safe” probably means _. A. to write carefully B. to avoid using words one is not sure ofC. to use dictionaries frequently D. to do as teachers say 43. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that_.A. students will be able to express their ideas more freely. B. teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes. C. students will have more trust in writing.D. students will learn to spell words correctly.44. The writer seems to think that the teachers judgment on that sensitive piece of writing is_. A. reasonable B. unfair C. foolish D. careless45. The main idea of the passage is _.A. the importance of developing writing skillsB. the importance of spellingC. the correct way of marking compositionD. the relationship between spelling and the content of a compositionCNOT all memories are sweetSome people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiencesViolence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scarsOften the experiences in nightmares appear repeatedlyNow American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memoriesThe pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experienceThey hope it might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memoriesIn November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and FranceThe drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far, the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped outThey are not sure to what degree peoples memories are affectedThe research has caused a lot of argumentSome think it is a bad idea, while others support itSupporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers troubling memories after warThey say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories“Some memories can ruin peoples livesThey come back to you when you dont want to have them in a daydream or nightmareThey usually come with very painful emotions,” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School“This could relieve a lot of that suffering”But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change peoples memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identityThey also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we areIm not sure we want to wipe those memories out.” said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist(伦理学家)46The passage is mainly about Aa new medical inventionBa new research on the pillCan argument about the research on the pillDa way of wiping out painful memories 47The drug tested on people can Acause the brain to fix memoriesBstop people remembering bad experiencesCwipe out the emotional effects of memoriesDprevent body producing certain chemicals 48We can infer from the passage that AExperts are not sure about the effects of the pillsBthe pill will certainly stop peoples emotional memoriesCtaking the pill will do harm to peoples physical healthDthe pill has already been produced and used by the public America49Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with in the last paragraph?Asome memories can ruin peoples livesBpeople want to get rid of bad memoriesCexperiencing bad events makes us different from othersDthe pill will reduce peoples sufferings from bad memories50You may probably read the passage in .Aa guidebook Ba textbookCa medical magazine Da science fictionDUpon reaching an appropriate age (usually between 18 and 21 years)， children are encouraged, but not forced, to “leave the nest” and begin an independent life. After children leave home, they often find social relationship and financial support outside the family. Parents do not arrange marriages for their children, nor do children usually ask permission of their parents to get married. Romantic love is most often the basis for marriage in the United States; young adults meet their future spouses（配偶）through other friends, at jobs, and in organizations and religious institutions. Although children choose their own spouses, they still hope their parents will approve of their choices.In many families, parents feel that children
