s)法国大革命于1789年爆发。当时法国正处在一片混乱中，政府腐败，人民生活凄惨。路易十六世企图控制议会并增加赋税，但最后失败了。他命令军队进入凡尔赛。人民都认为他企图用武力镇压革命。1789年7月14日，人民群众爆发了，攻占了关押政治犯的巴士底狱。从那天以后，7月14日就被定为法国的国庆日。1792年，路易十六企图逃离法国，并从奥地利和普鲁士获得支持，但他被捕了。1792年王室被废除，路易十六被处以死刑。几个月后，他的妻子，玛丽也被处以死刑。法国大革命令欧洲其它国家的国王感到害怕。奥地利和普鲁士的军队进入了法国。法国人民组织起了共和军来保卫祖国，革命陷入了一个艰苦阶段。成千上万的人牺牲了。最后，权力落入了拿破仑﹒波拿巴手中。6.What’sthispassageabout?这篇文章主要讲了什么？A.France.B.KingLouis.C.TheFrenchRevolution.法国大革命D.Europe.7.Whichdidnothappenin1789?以下哪件事不是发生在1789年？A.TheFrenchRevolutionbrokeout.B.Thenationaleconomywasdevelopingrapidly.国家经济快速发展。C.Thegovernmentwasn’twellrun.D.KingLouisXIVwasinpower.8.Wherewerethepoliticalprisonerskept?那些政治犯被关押在哪里？A.InVersailles.B.InAustria.C.InPrussia.D.InBastille.巴士底狱9.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“abolished”mean?划了下划线的“abolished”这个词是什么意思？A.Putoff.B.Established.C.United.D.Ended.废除。10.WhatwasNOTtheeffectoftheRevolution?以下哪个不是法国大革命产生的效果？A.July14hasbecometheFrenchNationalDay.B.ItbroughtsomeimpactontheotherEuropeanKings.C.Louis’swife,Mariewaskilled.D.Thekingtriedtocontrolthenationalparliament.国王试图控制议会。Passage2Aforeigner’sfirstimpressionoftheU.S.islikelytobethateveryoneisinarush-oftenunderpressure.Citypeopleappearalwaystobehurryingtogetwheretheyaregoingrestlessly,seekingattentioninastore,andelbowingothersastheytrytocompletetheirerrands（任务）.Racingthroughdaytimemealsispartofthepaceoflifeinthiscountry.一个外国人对于美国的第一印象很有可能是每个人都在压力下匆匆忙忙。城市里的人总是表现得匆匆忙忙不知疲倦的，为了尽快做完一件事情，他们会在店里拼命引起店员的注意或者用胳膊肘推搡别人。白天匆忙就餐也是这个国家生活节奏的一个部分。Workingtimeisconsideredprecious.Othersinpubliceatingplacesarewaitingforyoutofinishsothattheytoocanbeservedandgetbacktoworkwithinthetimeallowed.Eachpersonhurriestomakeroomforthenextperson.Ifyoudon’t,waiterswillhurryyou.工作时间被认为是很珍贵的。在一些公共饮食场所，其他人会等在你旁边等你吃完，这样大家都可以得到服务，并赶在规定的时间内回去工作。每个人都会尽快给下一个人腾出地方。如果你不这样，侍者会催促你的。Youalsofinddriverswillbeabruptandthatpeoplewillpushpastyou.Youwillmisssmiles,briefconversations,andsmallcourtesieswithstrangers.Don’ttakeitpersonally.Thisisbecausepeoplevaluetimehighly,andtheyresentsomeoneelse“wasting”itbeyondacertaincourtesypoint.你会发现司机也都很匆忙，人们从你身边匆匆走过。你会错过一些微笑，简短的交谈和一些与陌生人的小礼节。不要在意，这是因为他们非常珍惜时间，而且他们认为一旦太注重这些社交礼节就是浪费时间。Theviewoftimeaffectstheimportanceweattachtopatience.IntheAmericansystemofvalues,patienceisnotahighpriority.Manyofushavewhatmightbecalled“ashortfuse.”Webegintomoverestlesslyaboutifwefeeltimeisslippingawaywithoutsomereturnbethisintermsofpleasure,workvalue,orrest.Thosecomingfromlandswheretimeislookedupondifferentlymayfindthismatterofpacetobeoneoftheirmostdifficultadjustmentsinbothbusinessanddailylife.对时间的观念还会影响到我们对耐心的理解。在美国价值体系中，耐心并不是首要考虑的。我们中的很多人被称为“脾气火爆”。如果我们觉得时间在毫无意义的溜走，既没有娱乐价值，工作价值，也不在休息，那就会开始不停地徘徊。那些来自时间观念不同的国家的人发现他们在商业和日常生活中最困难的就是对时间节奏的适应。ManynewcomerstotheStateswillmisstheopeningcourtesyofabusinesscall,forexample,theywillmisstheritualsocializingthatgoeswithawelcomingcupofteaorcoffeetheymaybetraditionalintheirowncountry.Theymaymissleisurelybusinesschatsinacaféorcoffeehouse.Normally,Americansdonotassesstheirvisitorsinsuchrelaxedsurroundingsoverprolongedsmalltalks.Weseekoutevidenceofpastperformanceratherthanevaluateabusinesscolleaguethroughsocialcourtesies.Sincewegenerallyassessandprobeprofessionallyratherthansocially,westarttalkingbusinessveryquickly.(348words)许多刚到美国来的人都会想念他们在商业会谈中一些开场礼节。举个例子，他们会想念欢迎你到来而泡的一杯茶或咖啡这样的社交礼仪，这在他们国家是常规礼仪。他们会想念在咖啡屋悠闲的会谈。而通常，美国人不会与来访者在这么悠闲的环境中进行一些冗长的小会谈。对于同事，我们总是看他过去的表现而不是与他的社交礼仪。因为我们一般都是更注重专业性的，而不是社交性的，因此我们总是很快进入正题。11.Whichofthefollowingstatementsiswrong?A.Americansseemtobealwaysunderpressure.B.Americansattachlessimportancetopatience.C.Americansdon’tcaremuchaboutritualsocializing.以下哪项陈述是错误的？D.Americansareimpolitetotheirbusinesscolleagues.美国人对他们的同事不礼貌。12.Inthefourthparagraph,“ahighpriority”means.第四段中的“ahighpriority”是什么意思？A.alessimportantthingB.afirstconcern要首要考虑的。C.agoodbusinessD.anattractivegift13.Americansevaluateabusinesscolleague.美国人评价他们的同事是根据。A.throughsocialcourtesyB.throughprolongedbusinesstalksC.byestablishingbusinessrelationsD.bylearningabouttheirpastperformance他们过去的表现。14.Thispassagemainlytalksabout.本文主要讲了。A.howAmericanstreasuretheirtime美国人是怎样珍惜时间的。B.howbusyAmericansareeverydayC.howAmericansdobusinesswithforeignersD.whatAmericanwayoflifeislike15.Wecaninferfromthepassagethattheauthor’stoneinwritingis.从本文我们可以看出作者写作的口吻是。A.criticalB.ironicalC.appreciative欣赏的。D.objectivePassage3Sixteen-year-oldMariawaswaitinginlineattheairportinSantoDomingo.ShewasleavinghernativecountrytojoinhersisterintheUnitedStates.ShespokeEnglishverywell.Thoughshewasveryhappyshecouldgoabroad,shewasfeelingsadatleavingherfamilyandfiends.Asshewasthinkingallaboutthis,shesuddenlyheardtheairlineemployeeaskinghertopickupherluggageandputitonthescale（s称）.Mariapulledandpulled.Thebagwastooheavyandshejustcouldn’tliftitup.Themanbehindhergotveryimpatient.He,too,waswaitingtocheckinhisluggage.Maria，十六岁，她正在圣多明各(多米尼加首都)的机场排队等候。她正要离开自己的祖国去美国和她的姐姐团聚。她的英语讲得很好。虽然她要出国了觉得很高兴，但此时要离开她的家人和朋友也很伤心。正在她想这些的时候，她突然听到机场的工作人员正在叫她把行李放到称上。Maria拉了又拉，包太重，她根本抬不起来。她后面的男人很不耐烦了。他也是等着托运行李的。“What’swrongwiththisgirl?”Hesaid,“Whydoesn’tshehurryup?”Hemovedforwardandplacedhisbagonthecounter,hopingtocheckinf
