Do you how they were created?The first hamburgers in U.S. history were served in New Haven, Connecticut, at Louis Lunch sandwich shop in 1895. Louis Lassen, founder of Louis Lunch, ran a small lunch wagon selling steak sandwiches to local factory workers. Because he didnt like to waste the excess beef from his daily lunch rush, he ground it up, grilled it, and served it between two slice of breadand thus Americas first hamburger was created.The small Crown Street restaurant is still owned and operated by the third and fourth generations of the Lassen family. Hamburgers are still the specialty of the house, where steak is ground fresh each day and hand molded, slow cooked, broiled vertically, and served between two slices of toast with your choice of only three “acceptable” garnishes: cheese, tomato, and onion.Want ketchup or mustard?

Why People Love HamburgersI never thought I would have a life-changing experience at Wal-Mart. Although my thoughts were only on speed, the checkout line I was standing in wasnt moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier. There stood a man in his seventies, wearing glasses and a nice smile. I thought, well, hes an old guy! For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before scanning the items. Sure, his words were the usual, “Hows it going？” But he did something differenthe actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in a brief conversation.I thought it was odd. I had grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of robotic conversational habit. After a while, you dont give any thought to the question and just mumble something back. I could say, “I just found out I have six months to live，” and someone would reply, “Have a great day！” But that wasnt the end.He gave them the change, walked around the counter, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship. He looked the customers in the eyes. “I surely want to thank you for shopping here today，” he told them. “You have a great day. Bye-bye.”The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless. There were smiles and some sheepish grins. All had been touched by his simple gestureand in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling.Of course, he did the same to me and I got to know his name, Marty.Who was that guy? It was as if Sam Walton had e back from the dead and invaded this old guys body. I had never walked away from that shop feeling like that.9According to the writer, when mon people ask you “Hows it going？”, _.Athey dont really care what you may answerBthey are just practicing their conversation abilityCthey are inquiring about your private informationDthey dont expect to hear any negative answers10What was most customers reaction to Martys behaviors?AThey thought it priceless. BThey were in some way moved.CThey thought it awful and odd. DThey felt somewhat offended.11What can we infer about Sam Walton?AHe might be Martys father or grandfather.BHe might be friendly and devoted to Wal-Mart.CHe might have died while working in the market.DHe might have e back from the dead once before.12What does the writer intend to express through the text?AOur everyday life is always full of surprises.BMost customers enjoy being treated this way.CBeing different is a good way of doing business.DA little positive action can make a big difference.From the health point of view we are living in a marvelous age. We are immunized (免疫) from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases. A large number of once deadly illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and medical treatment. It is almost certain that one day cures will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased enormously. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the unbelievable slaughter (屠杀) of men, women and children on the roads. Man vs the motor-car! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel (方向盘), his car bees the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a mans very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may bee unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year-olds and absolutely selfish. All their hidden disappointments and regrets seem to be brought by the act of driving.The surprising thing is that society smiles so kindly on the motorist and seems to forgive his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to bee almost impossible to live in because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is ruined by road networks; and the mass annual slaughter bees nothing more than a statistic, to be conveniently forgotten.It is high time a world system of laws were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. As for driving, the laws of some countries are not strict and even the strictest are not strict enough. Here are a few examples of some the things that might be done. The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through strict annual tests for safety. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can affect a persons driving ability. Present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter. Maximum and minimum speed limits should be introduced on all roads. Governments should lay down safety specifications (规范) for manufacturers, as has been done in the USA. All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned. These measures may sound inordinately severe. But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the annual toll of human life. After all, the world is for human beings, not motor-cars.13The main idea of this passage is_.A. Traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists.B. Thousands of people the world over are killed each year.C. The laws of some countries about driving are not too strict.D. Only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents.14What does the author think of society toward motorists?A. Society laughs at the motorists.B. Huge car parks are built in the cities and towns.C. Victims of accidents are nothing.D. Society forgives their rude driving.15Why does the author say: “his car bees the extension of his personality?”A. Driving can show his real self.B. Driving can show the other part of his personality.C. Driving can bring out his character.D. His car can express his temper.16 The attitude of the author is_.A. ironical B. criticalC. appealing D. favorable二、阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。One day a mother brought home a small and gave it to her little girl on her birthday.
