Everyone seemed to enjoy talking about other people and their lives. I also didnt like the fact that people seemed very close-minded. I felt trapped. I felt like I was missing . It seemed to me that city life would be the opposite.Then I took my first trip to New York City. I couldnt wait to experience the city. However, when I arrived in the Big Apple, it wasnt at all what I had imagined. I knew it was home to thousands of people, but I hadnt had the least expectation to see so many people on the street at one time. All the streets were filled with people. I also felt a little surprised to see that everyone was in a hurry and everything moved at such a fast pace(步伐). When I took the subway for the first time, I said hello to the middle-aged woman next to me. She looked at me with dislike and didnt say a word.After just one day, I realized how important my small town is to me. Now I miss the familiar faces I see every day. I like the feeling of safety and belonging my town offers. Jim Thorpe gives me a sense of community and togetherness that the city doesnt provide. I realize just how much a simple hello does for a stranger it really can make your day a little better.My big trip showed me that my small town really has its own values in me that I didnt even know I had. I never would have known what a big place my town holds in my heart if I had not taken that trip to New York City.（1）What surprised the author most in New York City?A . The gestures of greeting.B . The modern transportation.C . The modern life.D . The crowded streets.（2）What made the author change his / her attitudes to his /her hometown?A . Travelling to New York City.B . The familiar faces in Jim Thorpe.C . Greeting the middle-aged woman .D . Everybody likes talking about others.（3）What would be the best title for the passage?A . Love of my small townB . A sense of communityC . A pleasant trip to New York CityD . Differences between big cities and small towns12. （25分）阅读短文，根据其内容回答问题。The British are known for their sense of humour. However, it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes. The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement.Understatement means saying less than you think or feel. For example, if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain, he might say, Its a little damp (潮湿的) outside. Or, if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person, someone else might say, She isnt exactly friendly. Understatement is often used in unpleasant situation or to make another person look silly. Understatement plays an important part in British humour.Another key to understanding British humour is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others. They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidently falls over in the street. They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society. They like to make jokes about their accents, the way they dress and the way they behave. Whats more, the British love to watch comedies (喜剧) about people who do not know how to behave in society. The comedies series Mr Bean is a good example of this kind of humor.Mr Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990. Mr Bean doesnt talk often, and instead he uses his body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh. Perhaps what makes Mr Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do. Mr Bean is popular in many countries round the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humour. Because of this, many people have become familiar with the British sense of humour.（1）Is it difficult for foreigners to understand British jokes?（2）What does understatement mean?（3）What do the British love to watch comedies about?（4）How does Mr Bean make people laugh?（5）What are the key points for people to understand British humour?五、 词汇运用。根据句意及汉语提示完成句子。 (共11题；共33分)13. （1分）This boy would like _（成长）to be a famous pianist 14. （10分）单词翻译。 _n. 人 _adj.圆形的_n. 艺术家 _v. 描述 _n. 面条_n. 特色菜 _adj.大的 _v. 点菜_n. 饺子 _n. 薄烤饼15. （6分）完成句子。根据括号内汉语提示，完成句子。(1)Its too dangerous to (游泳)_alone.(2)Jack is the (高)_of the five boys.(3)What would you do if your brother borrowed your bike without _（允许）.(4)Sandy enjoys reading books and she has been to many (图书馆)_.(5)Dont forget to check your test paper (仔细)_before the exam is over.(6)If you stand very close to the Europeans you are talking with,some might feel_（不自然，不舒服）.16. （1分）These are _(桔子). 17. （1分）This is my first e_of living with other people.18. （1分）This sweater feels so_(柔软的).
