Before Europeans came to North America, many groups of Native America lived here. Different Native American groups had different cultures. The first European in the United States were from England and Holland, but immigrants (移民) came from all European countries. Many people also immigrated from Asia and Africa. Sadly, many Africans were brought to the United States to serve the Americans. The life there was hard for them. Many immigrants come from Latin America too. Today, the United States has people from more cultures than ever.In the 19th century, people thought of the United States as a “melting pot.” People thought that all immigrants should forget their native cultures and languages and become English-speaking Americans. They felt that people should assimilate cultures. However, not everyone wanted to assimilate completely. Many people tried to keep parts of their cultures, such as foods, customs, and languages. However, their children often forgot their parents or grandparents language. But most Americans, even those whose families have been here a long time, can tell the countries their relatives came from. And of course, new immigrants take great pride in their cultures and languages.For all of these reasons, melting pot is no longer a good way to describe the United States. Instead, people now call the United States a “salad bowl.” They say salad bowl because in a salad, you can still see all of the individual parts (lettuce, tomato, and so on), but all the different parts are mixed together and begin to take on the taste of one another.48 . The first paragraph mainly talks about _.Ahow many immigrants the United States haveBwhere the immigrants live in the United statesCwhat culture and language the immigrants keepDwhy the United States is a country of many cultures49 . What can we learn from the passage?ABefore Europeans came to North Amekioa, nobody lived there.BPeople spoke of the United States as a “melting pot” in the 19th century.CAll the Africans were brought to the United States to serve the Americans.DThe immigrants in the United States are only from England, Holland and Africa.50 . The underlined word “assimilate” in the second paragraph means _.Amake something similarBmake something specialCmake something differentDmake something interesting51 . Why do people call the United States a “salad bowl” now?ABecause Americans can make all the cultures into one culture.BBecause Americans all want to eat salad to healthy very much.CBecause Americans want their country to be as “green” as “salad”.DBecause Americans can make different cultures go together in one country.Wonderful Activities for Teenagers in Summer VacationA New Animal Star Is Coming!An elephant from Thailand is waiting for you atCuiping Zoo from July 10 to August 25.

Some of the words and expressions deal with the special areas of their work. Other expressions are borrowed from different kinds of work such as the theater and movie industry. One such saying is “get your act together”. When things go wrong in a business, the boss may get angry. He may shout, “Stop making mistakes. Get your act together.” Or, if the boss is calmer, he may say, “Let us get our act together.” Either way, the meaning is the same. Getting your act together is getting organized. In business, it usually means to develop a calm and orderly plan of action. Where did the saying begin? It is probable that it was in the theater or movie industry. Perhaps one of the actors was nervous and made a lot of mistakes. The director may have said, “Calm down, now. Get your act together.” Word expert James Rogers says the expression was common at the late 1970s. Mister Rogers says the Manchester Guardian newspaper used it in 1978. The newspaper said a reform policy(改革政策) required that the British government get its act together. Now, this expression is heard often when officials of a company meet. And it has become shortened to “get it together”. Both mean the same thing straighten out your feelings and problems. If you always worry about your tests, you should really get it together!57 . The underlined phrase “get your act together” means_in Chinese here.A聚在一起B别犯傻了C仔细筹划D做你的事58 . We can infer from Paragraph 4 that_.Athe writer isnt sure where the saying comes from .Ban actor used the saying firstCa teacher used this saying firstDits not necessary to ask where the saying comes from59 . What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 5?APeople didnt know what “get it together” means in 1978.B“Get it together” was only used in newspapers.C“Get it together” was commonly used at the late 1970s.DThe British government get it together in 1978.60 . Which of the following is NOT true?AWhen you make a mistake, you may be told to get it together.BNow this saying is mainly used in school tests.C“Get it together” has the same meaning as “get your act together”.DNow this saying deals with a lot of areas.We are excited when we reach our goals，and at that moment we laugh，clap，even are over the moon. Without doubt，good results make us joyful. However，we cannot always get what we want and be the winner all the time. Some people cant help doubting: “Are our efforts in vain？”The answer is “No”. We should remember that we are not only measured by how many goals weve reached，but how we acted，which means，process is also important.Here is an example. Fruits are delicious. It takes trees a long time to bear them. In the process of growing，trees have to suffer from bad weather，insect bites and also intentional destructions（故意的破坏）from human beings. So it is with us. Our life is like a journey. At the beginning，we set a goal，dreaming of it every night，but we should never forget that we spend most of our time on the journey. Unfortunately，many people only complain about the failure and then give up hope. In fact，it is the failure that teaches us to be brave and stand on our own.I myself deeply believe that only those who experienced a lot can own the highly-valued characters，only those who adventured（冒险）can have the chance to succeed. It is said No pain，no gain. We are still young，still full of energy，so why are we afraid of failure and why do we hesitate（犹豫）to take an adventure？Young men，lets forget results，leave out pain，and just look forward and dont miss any chance on the journey！61 . Reaching our goal will make us _.Alaugh at othersBget over the moonCset another goalDforget our effort62 . The underlined phrase in vain here means“_”.A值得B益处C高效D徒劳63 . The writer gives an example of fruits in order to say _.ANo pain，no gainBPeople will suffer a lot in lifeCIts hard for a tree to bear fruitsDWe should grow trees to get good fruits64 . Only those who _ will get really good characters.Ahave gone through a lotBwork very hardCbelieve that things will be better and betterDbelieve in themselves65 . The best title for the passage is _.AStand on Our OwnBProcess Is Also ImportantCDont Doubt YourselfDFailure Is the Mother of Success八、根据首字母、中文提示填空A)根据句意及汉语提示填写单词。66 . Youd better buy a _(棉) blouse.
