21、Americans love to drive. They have drive — in movie theatres, drive — through restaurants and driving vacations. It’s often called the “Great American Road Trip”: Your whole family gets into a van or Recreational Vehicle (RV, 旅行房车), and hits the road for a summertime trip across the country.

American cars are always big, but RVs are the biggest. These are houses on wheels. RVs have kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. All across the country you can find RV parks — place to park your RV and spend the night.

As big as RVs are, they still seem very small to a family who has to spend every hour of every day together. With your little brother kicking you in the face all night in your tiny bed under the table, the dog barking and Mom playing her country music on the radio, your family is not at its best. What’s worse, RVs are always breaking down. So it’s possible to spend a lot of time watching Dad under the RV on side of a dusty road.

But RV travel can be a great time with the family too. You can see the country in the comfort of your own “home”. You can spend every night in a different, natural and beautiful place, or just stay where you are. You don’t have to pay for hotels or restaurants, only gas. But, best of all, you are free to go wherever you want at any time in your home — away — from — home.

【1】RVs have the following EXCEPT ________.

A．bathrooms

B．bedrooms

C．kitchens

D．gardens

【2】Why do American people like to travel in RVs？

A．Because RVs can go faster than other cars.

B．Because they can play country music on the road.

C．Because RVs never break down on the road.

D．Because it’s like travelling in their own home.

【3】If you travel in RVs, you only have to pay for ________.

A．hotels

B．gas

C．food

D．drinks

【4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?

A．Travelling in RVs is more expensive than living in hotels.

B．RVs are big enough for families travelling together.

C．It is not difficult to find parking places for RVs and spend the night.

D．You can’t go anywhere you like when travelling in RVs.

【5】What’s the best title for the article?

A．Go to Travel in RVs

B．Go for a Trip Across the Country

C．A Family Trip

D．Americans Love to Drive

22、   In 1933 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney's cartoon film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash's voice, he said, “Stop! That's our duck!”

The duck was the now­famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the film The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat (水上住宅)and wore his sailor jacket and hat.Later that year he became a star after an eight­minute Mickey Mouse film.The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy (贪婪的), and because he lost his temper (发脾气)very quickly.And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey's eight nephews (侄子). Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn't a goody－goody like Mickey.

In the 1930s, 40s and 50s Donald and his friends Mickey and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons.He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared—there were no more new cartoons.

Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today's children can still see the old cartoons on television and hear that famous voice.

23、Cats and dogs are the most popular pets in America. So it is not surprising that we can find different sentences (句子)about cats in a language book when we learn English.

Unlike dogs, it is difficult to teach cats to do something. Cats are not like sheep or cows that can be moved in a group. So we say a difficult or impossible job is like “herding(放牧) cats”.

Everybody knows cats and mice are “good friends”. Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches, such as a mouse. So if your daughter offers something sweet to her little brother and then takes it away when he reaches for it, you can use "play cat and mouse". What will children do in a classroom when their teacher leaves for a few minutes? They are sure to make as much noise as possible."When the cat's away, the mice will play" has the same meaning.

There are a lot more sayings about cats. Americans might say "the cat's miaow" to describe（描述） something that is the best or finest. “A fat car" means a person with lo of money. If you tell about something secret（秘密）, we say you “let the cat out of the bag”. If you are not able to speak or answer a question, someone might think 'the cat has got your tongue(舌头)". Also, you may often hear the sentence “Curiosity(好奇) killed the cat.” That means caring too much about things that are not your business(与你无关之事) might lead to serious problems.

【1】What may you say if you want someone to keep the secret for you?

A. Curiosity killed the cat. B. Has the cat got your tongue.

C. Don’t let the cat out of the bag. D. Let’s play cat and mouse.

【2】Which of the following can we use “Curiosity killed the cat” to describe?

A. Someone always asked a lady her age or weight and it made her angry.

B. Someone made a big noise as soon as the teacher left the classroom.

C. Someone won the first in the final test and he felt very excited.

D. Someone got the newest iPhone as a present from his parents.

【3】What can we learn from the article?

A. We can use “A fat cat” to describe a fat man or a person who eats too much.

B. There are more sentences about cats than those about dogs.

C. It’s more difficult to keep sheep or cows than cats.

D. “Play cat and mouse” usually means “play tricks on sb”.

【4】Where can you find the article?

A. In a science report about cats.

B. On a website telling people how to keep cats.

C. In a magazine telling different jokes and funny stories.

D. In a language book that teaches students how to use saying about cats.

24、Life is always full of stress these days. How do you usually solve your stress? Do you know doing housework is helpful in solving stress? In fact, doing something like washing dirty clothes may really make people relaxed. “Doing some housework such as folding clothes or cleaning the room is a good way to face our stress without taking any medicine，” says Carol Clark, a successful psychologist(心理学家) in New York. She often advises people who are under lots of stress to try doing housework every day. “While washing something，” she says, “you can imagine you're washing away some trouble in your life.”

Do people all agree with her idea? Here are some ideas about it．

“Housework is the main reason for the stress in my life，” says Linda in France(法国). “Get me out of doing the housework and then I'll really be relaxed.”

Gary is a single(单身的) father. “So, a man pays a psychologist $200 an hour for his problem about stress. However, he is just told to go back home and do some housework. I really don't know who is crazier, the psychologist or the man！”

【1】What does Carol Clark advise people under stress to do?

A. To take some medicine.   B. To call on a psychologist.

C. To be as tidy as possible.   D. To do some housework.

【2】Linda thinks that doing housework will make her ________．

A. relaxed   B. stressed   C. helpful   D. healthy

【3】What does the underlined word “it” refer to?

A. Taking medicine.   B. Doing housework.

C. Making money.   D. Solving trouble.

【4】Gary's stress is probably from ________．

A. his work   B. his wife   C. the psychologist   D. the housework

【5】Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?

25、Climbing a mountain is hard work. But one step after another finally brings a person to the t 【1】. Along the way, he can stop and look a【2】. And the higher he climbs, the more w【3】 views there will be. If he k【4】 climbing, he will have a new world before him. He will have a new way of seeing everything. Now learning a【5】 language is something like climbing a mountain. This new language gives you a new view(观点) of life. And it is more than a book on the surface(表面) of things. It can o【6】 the way into people’s minds and hearts, into a culture which is very d【7】 from the one of your own. This will make you g【8】 at things that money can’t buy.

Like the mountain climber who stops now and then e【9】 the beauty around him, everyone who is interested in reading will find f【10】 in books as he tries to learn more and more about that new language.
