  • 1．When I lived in Spain，some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car.Before they left，they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation.I suggested that they should stay at "bed and breakfast" houses，because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family.My friends listened to my advice，but they came back with some funny stories.
       "We didn't stay at "bed and breakfast" houses，" they said， "because we found that most families were away on holiday."
       I thought this was strange.Finally I understood what had happened.My friends spoke little English，and they thought "VACANCIES" meant "holidays"，because the Spanish word for "holidays" is "vacaciones".So they did not go to house where the sign outside said "VACANCIES"，which in English means there are free rooms.Then my friends went to house where the sign said "NO VACANCIES"，because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday.But they found that these houses were all full.As a result，they stayed at hotels!
       We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs.In Spanish，the word "DIVERSION" means fun.In English，it means that workmen are repairing the road，and that you must take a different road.When my friends saw the word "DIVERSION" on a road sign，they thought they were going to have fun.Instead，the road ended in a large hole.
       English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages.Once in Paris，when someone offered me some more coffee，I said "Thank you" in French.I meant that I would like some more.However，to my surprise，the coffeepot was taken away!Later I found out that "Thank you" in French means "No，thank you."

    （1）The writer's friends in Spain wanted to get advice about
    .
    A．the chance of learning English
    B．the way of going to England
    C．the traffic rules in England
    D．finding places to stay in England

    A．it would be convenient for them to have dinner
    B．it would be much cheaper than staying in hotels
    C．they would be able to practise their English
    D．there would be no problem about finding accommodation there
    （3）The writer's friends stayed at hotels at last because
    .
    A．they misunderstood the signs outside the door
    B．there were no such "bed and breakfast" houses in England
    C．they found there were no free rooms there
    D．people there were away on holiday

    .
    A．fall into a hole
    B．have to take a different road
    C．find that the road is stopped by lots of people
    D．have a lot of fun and enjoy yourself

    B．he wants to show his amazement
    C．he just wants to show his politeness
    D．he wants to have some more coffee

  • 2．I saw my first tree today.Dad used to tell me stories about the trees that still existed when he was a boy.There weren't very many even then，with the urbanization program in full swing.
       The O'Brien home was one of the few examples of old-style wooden structures that hadn't been destroyed in Boston's urban-renewal campaign.The family had been able to avoid this because of its wealth and political influence，and the house was passed on through generations to the present.Old man O'Brien had no children，so when he died，the Urban Center bought it.Then an official discovered that the house had a backyard-in the yard was a live tree!
       When the news of the tree's discovery leaked out，quite a few sightseers stopped by to have a look at it，and the local government，realizing the money-making potential，began charging admission and advertising the place.By now it had become a favorite spot for family trips like ours.
       Dad paid the fee and we walked through a doorway hidden in a bookshelf and into the backyard.I just couldn't help noticing the tree!
       It was located at one end of the yard，with a fence around it for protection.It was similar in form to the plastic trees I'd seen，but there was much more.You could see details more delicate than in any artificially made plant.And it was alive.But best of all was the smell-fresh，living smell，unfamiliar to the world outside with metal，plastic，and glass.I wanted to touch the bark，but the fence prevented me from doing so.
       On the way back，I read through the brochures.One part said the O'Brien home would be torn down next year to make room for some insurance building，and the tree will have to go，too.
       I just sat still，fingering the object in my pocket that I had picked in the O'Brien's backyard.I think it's called an acorn（橡子）.

    （1）Why could the tree in the O'Brien's backyard survive till today？

    A．It possessed some special characteristics.
    B．It had a very strong fence around to protect it.
    C．It was preserved together with the house by its owner.
    D．It got the local government's attention as a tourist attraction.
    （2）How might the author feel after the trip？

    A．Annoyed.
    B．Calm.
    C．Excited.
    D．Upset.
    （3）Which statement best shows the theme of the passage？

    A．Social progress and urbanization come at a cost.
    B．Social progress should give way to nature protection.
    C．Humans value nature protection over social progress.
    D．Urbanization has more advantages than disadvantages.

  • 3．Leslie Nielsen's childhood was a difficult one，but he had one particular shining star in his life—his uncle，who was a well-known actor.The admiration and respect his uncle earned inspired Nielsen to make a career（職業(yè)）in acting.Even though he often felt he would be discovered to be a no-talent，he moved forward，gaining a scholarship to the Neighborhood Playhouse and making his first television appearance a few years later in 1948.However，becoming a full-time，successful actor would still be an uphill battle for another eight yeas until he landed a number of film roles that finally got him noticed.
       But even then，what he had wasn't quite what he wanted.Nielsen always felt he should be doing comedy but his good looks and distinguished voice kept him busy in dramatic roles.It wasn't until 1980—32 years into his career—that he landed the role it would seem he was made for in Airplane!That movie led him into the second half of his career where his comedic presence alone could make a movie a financial success even when movie reviewers would not rate it highly.
       Did Nielsen then feel content in his career？Yes and no.He was thrilled to be doing the comedy that he always felt he should do，but even during his last few year he always had a sense of curiosity，wondering what new role or challenge might be just around the corner.He never stopped working，never retired.
       Leslie Nielsen's devotion to acting is wonderfully inspiring.He built a hugely successful career with little more than plain old hard work and determination.He showed us that even a single desire，never given up on，can make for a remarkable life.

    （1）Why did Nielsen want to be an actor？

    A．He enjoyed watching movies.
    B．He was eager to earn money.
    C．He wanted to be like his uncle.
    D．He felt he was good at acting.
    （2）What do we know about Nielsen in the second half of his career？

    A．He directed some high quality movies.
    B．He avoided taking on new challenges.
    C．He focused on playing dramatic roles.
    D．He became a successful comedy actor.
    （3）What does Nielsen's career story tell us？

    A．Art is long，life is short.
    B．He who laughs last laughs longest.
    C．It's never too late to learn.
    D．Where there's a will there's a way.
