21、   Thinking about my time in France, I noticed quite a few differences between the French and the English.

The first example is about the French language. In French, there are two ways to say ‘you’: ‘tu’ is  the informal  (不正规的) form, while ‘vous’ is the formal form. When I learnt French, I was taught to call everyone ‘vous’ unless ( 除 非 ) they were my family or a friend. So I was surprised that everyone in France used the informal ‘tu’ all the time. School children used ‘tu’ with their teachers as well as the head teacher. Even strangers I met in the street would call me ‘tu’, and sometimes ‘tu’ was written on street signs. But I continued to use ‘vous’ because I didn’t want people to think I was being impolite. To be honest, I’m thankful that in English we don’t have to worry about these things!

As you might know, school children in the UK traditionally wear school uniforms but in France pupils do not wear uniforms. It was a culture shock for me to see children wearing Spiderman T-shirts  and baggy blue  jeans while in the classroom. The final difference was the relaxed attitude at school. Teachers were never in a hurry, and  the children and teachers were given long rests and much time to eat their lunch. While  in  the  UK,  school day might seem highly pressured (有压力的).

The UK and France are only separated by a small channel of the sea, but there are many differences between the two cultures! Anyway, I cannot deny (否认) what a great chance it was to live and work in another country.

【1】Which of the following is NOT a culture shock to the writer?

A. It takes French students much time to eat lunch.

B. French students use ‘tu’ with their head teacher.

C. Students in France wear different clothes at school.

D. Teachers and students in the UK seem highly pressured.

【2】What might the writer say to his friends when he goes back to the UK?

A. It’s very fantastic  to stay in France. B. People in France are more polite than us.

C. The French culture is  just the same as ours. D. It’s more difficult to learn French in France.

【3】What is the best title of the passage?

A. Life in France B. Troubles in France

C. Cultural Differences D. Different Languages

22、   The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the Earth’s surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water which is not drinkable. Man can only drink and use the other 3%—fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. But we cannot even use all of that. However, our need for water is becoming larger almost day by day. We should take steps to deal with this problem now and in this way we can avoid a serious worldwide water shortage later on.

We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewage system. From there it returns to the sea or runs into underground places.

But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we have to do, to make use of sea water in the world, is to remove the salt. If we take these steps we’ll be in no danger of drying up.

【1】About ________ of the Earth’s water is fresh.

A．70%

B．30%

C．3%

D．1%

【2】The world is thirsty for water because ________.

A．man hasn’t got enough food to eat

B．we haven’t got enough fresh water

C．only 70% of the Earth’s surface is water

D．more water is sent into a sewage system

【3】The underlined word “valuable” means “________”.

A．much and salty

B．dear and useful

C．cheap and useful

D．much and helpful

【4】What should we do if we want to have enough fresh water?

a. Make full use of the sea water.

b. Carry salt water into lakes or rivers.

c. Try to save the fresh water as much as possible.

d. Do our best to use the water again.

e. Drink and use all the water on the Earth’s surface.

A．c and e

B．a and d

C．a, c and d

D．b, d and e

【5】The best but the most difficult way to solve the water problem of the world is to ________.

A．remove the salt from the sea water

B．make the water in the cities clean

C．take water from underground

D．make the need for water smaller

【6】The best title of this passage is ________.

24、My grandfather often complains (抱怨)about how fast things have changed, and says that life used to be better. Families are not families they used to be. A lot of families have broken up. If husband and wife are having problems with their marriage, they don't stay together any more. Mothers used to stay at home to take care of their children, but not anymore now. Everyone's working. No one has time for children any more. They are left for their grandparents.

And the cars! No one walks anymore. Everyone drives. We used to walk five miles to school every day, even in winter. And in school, the children don't have to think anymore. In math class, for example, we used to add, minus, multiply, and divide in our heads. Kids don't use their heads anymore. They use calculators(计算器). Most families have computers now. In the old days, we didn't have computers. We didn't even have electricity. My mother used to spend all day cooking in the kitchen. But now fewer people eat home-cooked food. And people don't talk to each other anymore. They are too busy to talk, too busy to eat, too busy to think... Life used to be simple, but it isn't anymore.
