Places of business that used to keep daytime “business hours” are now open late into the night. And on the Internet, the hour of the day and the day of the week have become irrelevant. A half century ago in the United states, most people experienced strong and precise dividing lines between days of rest and days of work, school time and summer time. Today the dividing lines are still there, but they seem not clear.The law in almost all states used to require stores to close on Sunday; in most, it no longer does. It used to keep the schools open in all seasons except summer, in most, it still does. And whether the work week should strengthen its legal（法律的）limits, or whether it should become more changeable, is often debated（争论）. How should we, as a society, organize our time? Should we go even further in relaxing the dividing lines of time until we live in a world in which every minute is much like every other?These are not easy questions even to ask. Part of the difficulty is that we seldom recognize the “law of time” even when we meet it face to face. We know as children that we have to go to school a certain number of hours, a certain number of days, a certain number of years but unless we meet the truant officer（学监）, we may well think that we should go to school because of social custom and parents requirement rather than to the law. As adults we know “extra pay for overtime working” very well, but less familiar with the fact that what constitutes（构成）“overtime” is a matter of legal thing. When we turn the clock forward to start daylight saving time, have we ever thought to ourselves: “Here is the law in action”? As we shall see, there is a lot of law that has great influence on how organize and use time: compulsory education law, overtime law, and daylight-saving law as well as law about Sunday closing, holidays, being late to work, time zones, and so on. Once we begin to look for it, we will have no trouble finding a law of time to examine and assess.（1）What does the underlined word “irrelevant” probably mean?A . Impossible.B . Unacceptable.C . Unimportant.D . Disagreeable.（2）The writer raises the questions in Paragraph 2 to introduce the fact that people _.A . are unknowing of the law of timeB . fail to make full use of their timeC . welcome changeable working hoursD . enjoy working overtime for more pay（3）We can learn from the passage that most children go to school because they_.A . have to follow the lawB . need to find social customsC . need to learn more knowledgeD . have to follow their parents requirement（4）What is the main idea of the passage?A . Our life is governed by the law of time.B . How to use time is not worth debating.C . New ways of using time change our society.D . Our time table is decided by social customs.11. （10分）阅读理解(C)Anne and Joseph are talking about an interesting questionWhy do some people change their names？There can be many reasonsHanna changed her name to Anne because she thought it would be easier for people to rememberOn the other hand，Joseph is thinking about changing his name to an unusual name because he wants to be differentPeople have a lot of reasons for changing their namesFilm stars，singers，sportsmen and some other famous people often change their names because they want names that are not common，or that have special soundThey choose thenew namefor themselves instead of the name their parents gave them when they were bornSome people have some other reasons for changing their namesThey have moved to a new country and want to use a name that is usual thereFor example，Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee when he moved to the United StatesHe uses the name Ken at his job and at schoolBut with his family and Chinese friends，he uses Li KaimingFor some people，using different names makes life easier in their new country In many countries，a woman changes her family name to her husbands after she gets marriedBut today，many women are keeping their own family name and not using their husbandsSometimes，women use their own name in some situations（情况） and their husbands in other situationsAnd some use both their own name and their husbands（1）Famous people want their new names to A . be commonB . have no meaningsC . have special soundD . be unknown（2）Li Kaiming uses his new name when he A . is at his jobB . is among Chinese friendsC . stays with his familyD . comes back to China（3）When a woman takes a mans family name，we can know that A . she wants to be famousB . she lives a happy lifeC . she works for the manD . she is married to the man（4）What is the best title of this passage？ A .

Right now get a small bowl (碗) and set it on a table in your kitchen. When you come back home, always put your keys in this bowl. The key to remembering where your keys are is to always put them back in the same place at once everr time you come back home.Cant find your car in the parking lot. I kept running into this problem until one day I solved it quite simply. Now I always park in the first or second row(排) to the left of the entrance (入口).

Gentlemanly manners are one of the best ways to show the excellent qualities(品质) in humans, so it is necessary for everyone to learn how to become a gentleman. Here are some tips._You should behave politely no matter how impolite other people are. Even if you do not like the person, it is always better to avoid him or her instead of stopping for any fight. Remember that politeness will show you to be a better man._Never be too loud or just hearable, as it can make other people angry, Speaking loudly will show that you are using force rather than argument to make a point. Also, speaking loudly in public is impolite._Only when you learn to control your temple will you be in control of other things. When you show anger, others will think you are neither patient nor polite. Keep your cool no matter how stressful the situation becomes. This will make other people get a good impression of you._Allow them to finish what they are saying and do not simply interrupt（打断）them for no reason. It is bad manners to express your ideas when someone is speaking. And it will show that you have no social skills._The more you respect others, the more respect you will get in return. Offer your help to anybody in need and you will always be popular for your gentlemanly behavior.Last, one small suggestion-look into other peoples eyes while you are speaking to him or her, but take care that you do not stare at the person.八、 书面表达。 (共1题；共5分)18. （5分）你喜欢阅读吗？请你以“ReadingA Good Habit”为题写一篇有关阅读的短文。内容包括: 1你的阅读习惯（包括你喜欢的书籍、阅读的时间地点、购书方式等等）。2阅读带给你什么益处（至少两点）。3号召大家多读书。作文要求: 1不得在作文中出现学校的真实的名称和学生的真实姓名。2语句连贯, 词数80词左右。ReadingA Good HabitReading is a very good habit.
