On December 24,kids around the world waited for Santa Claus (圣诞老人) .They
thought that the fat,whitebearded man would bring them gifts.But do you know that
some people would rather keep Santa out of the door?
Last month,10 doctoral (博士的) students from Tsinghua,Peking and Renmin
Universities said Santa Claus wasn't welcome in China.
“Foreign holidays like Christmas are now very popular in China,while fewer
and fewer people celebrate traditional Chinese festivals like the Dragon Boat
Festival,” said the students in a public letter.
They asked people to stop sending Christmas cards and giving gifts to their
children.Instead,they said,Chinese should spend more time on traditional festivals.
They have lots of support.In Hunan,several people went out on the street on
Christmas Day.They made poems and wrote Chinese calligraphy (书法) .
“Rather than spending money on Christmas,we should care more about our own
culture,” said one of them.
But others have different ideas.“Celebrations of foreign holidays help us know
more about foreign cultures.It is good for us to make friends,” said Liu Yang,
a 14yearold boy from Shanghai.
Sun Long,13,from Beijing,sees the celebration as a way to make people happier
and closer.“My school held a big party on Christmas Day.We played games and shared
gifts with each other.I think we have got closer,” he said.
C51.Why did some people not like Santa Claus? Because ________.
A.he was fat and white bearded
B.he was kind
C.he stopped some Chinese from caring more about their own cultures
D.he had lots of presents but usually stayed out of the door

traditional Chinese festivals.
B.All students are interested in foreign holidays.
C.More students want to stop spending more time on Chinese cultures.

D.Fewer people like the Dragon Boat Festival.
D53.What did people do in China after the 10 students' letter came out?
A.They stopped sending Christmas cards and giving gifts to their children.
B.They made poems and wrote Chinese calligraphy.

More and more young people from China begin to celebrate Father's Day.They send
fathers presents,or invite them for a nice dinner.But do you know how Father's Day
started?
While Mrs.Dodd,from America,was listening to a talk about Mother's Day in a
church in 1909,she had an idea of having Father's Day to honor her father,William
Smart.Mr.Smart used to be a soldier.His wife died when she gave birth to her sixth
child.Mr.Smart had to raise his six children alone.They lived a hard life.After
Mrs.Dodd grew up,she wanted to thank her father for what he had done for them.She
wrote a letter to a church and asked for the third Sunday in June to be Father's
Day.The church agreed with her.
The first Father's Day was celebrated on June 19th,1910 in Washington.Children
made special desserts and did other things to make their fathers happy.In 1924,
President ( 总 统 ) Calvin Coolidge supported the idea of a national Father's
Day.People all over the country began to celebrate Father's Day.Finally,in 1966,
President Lyndon Johnson made the third Sunday in June Father's Day.

I left my hometown in London last year and now I have enjoyed working in this
small city in China.Learning a foreign language opens you up to the culture and
history of a country.So in order to know more about China,I started to learn Chinese.
But at times,I found myself in funny situations.When I greeted strangers in
China, they began to talk a lot and very fast.They asked me questions about
everything.But all I could do was to look at them with a blank face.I had no idea
what they were talking about.Were they just being kind,funny or impolite?Many
people want to make friends with me.But I am a bit upset when I find out the reason
why they need a foreign friend.They say they want to practice their English.I don't
need friends like this.I like friends to share my feelings and ideas with.
However,the more Chinese I learn,the more similarities I find it has with
25
English.In English,thickskinned is to describe a person who doesn't care for
criticism (批评).I was surprised to find that houlianpi in Chinese means the same.And
both languages share some common idioms (习语).For example,“look on with folded
arms” means xiushoupangguan,and “burn the boats” is similar to pofuchenzhou.
I'm still on my journey to learn Chinese.I believe that sometimes you have the
most fun on a journey.
A51.The writer comes from ________.
A.the UK B.the USA C.Australia D.Canada
B52.Many Chinese want to make friends with the writer because .
A.they are interested in Western culture
B.they want a partner to practice English with
C.they are willing to share feelings and ideas with him
D.they want to help the foreigner with his Chinese
A53.The underlined word “similarities” means “________” in Chinese.
A.相似点 B.不同点 C.规律性 D.重要性
D54.A thickskinned person may ________.
A.be very strong and seldom fall ill
B.like to criticize others for their mistakes
C.talk a lot and speak fast
D.feel OK when he's criticized
C55.If there would be a paragraph before the last paragraph of the text,it most
probably would be about ________.

B.the similarities Chinese and English share
C.the differences between Chinese and English

include,lead,like,talk,polite,where,similar,enough,or,expression
Asking for information or help is very common and necessary (必要的).In English,
“76.Where are the restrooms?” and “Could you please tell me where the restrooms
are?” are 77.similar requests—both are correct English,but the first could sound
78.impolite.It's important to use correct languages,but sometimes this is not
79.enough.We need to learn how to be polite when we make requests.
In English,just 80.like in Chinese,we change the way we speak when 81.talking
with different people.The 82.expressions you use might depend on whom you are
speaking to 83.or how well you know them.Usually in English polite questions are
longer and 84.include extra language such as “Could you please…?” or “Can I
ask…?” Sometimes,we might even need to spend some time 85.leading into a question
or request.

A letter to my grandson
Dear Joe,
I wrote you a letter and tell you about what the world used to be like when I
was young.Life used to be very different then.We didn't have cell phones when we
wanted to talk to our friends.We didn't have emails either,so we had to write
letters.
When we traveled from town to town,we used to walk or ride horses or take a
cart(马车).Later we had buses but very few people had cars.Air travel was a luxury(奢
侈品) and we used to dream of riding on an airplane but now everyone does.It's so
common.
Food is another big difference.There weren't any supermarkets so we used to grow
our own food.We would exchange some with people from other towns to buy the things
we didn't have.We didn't have a refrigerator(冰箱) so we kept things cool in a special
room downstairs.
But the biggest difference is electricity.We didn't have any in our town!At
night,we used to light candles when we wanted light and we burned coal(煤)or wood
to keep warm.We didn't have television.In summer,we used to go swimming in the river.
Life used to be very different,but we were happy.
Love,
Grandpa

Harry is a curious (好奇的) boy.He likes asking questions.So,when Harry saw
a tree next to the gate,he asked his dad,“What is that tree made of?”
Dad gave his answer,“Wood…branches (树枝)…leaves.”
“What's that rock over there made of?”
“Rock,” Dad answered quickly.
“How about the car?What is it made of?” Harry asked again.
Dad thought for a moment and answered,“Plastic,metal,and glass mostly,and
maybe some rubber.”
“How about the air?”
“It's made of air.Scientists have found many kinds of air and mixtures (混
合物) of those kinds of air.Everything is made of stuff (原材料).It is like Mum's
pantry (食品储藏室),but we're not baking bread or cookies there.We're making
stuff.There are about 100 ingredients (成分) called elements (元素) to make
everything,but most things have only a few of them.”
“Even me?” Harry asked in surprise.
“Yes,you're mostly carbon,hydrogen,nitrogen,and oxygen,but there are other
elements in you.Each piece is so small that we can't even see it.”
Harry was happy about his father's answers.And Dad continued reading his
newspaper,only to be interrupted a few minutes later with another question,“And

Ancient China produced many types of beautiful works of art.Among them,
calligraphy (书法),poetry (诗歌) and painting were the most famous.Often they would
be put together in art.These became important starting with the Song dynasty.
Calligraphy is the art of handwriting.In the old time the Chinese considered
writing as an important form of art.Calligraphers (书法家) would practice for years

Chinese painting was often connected with calligraphy.It is one of the oldest
artistic traditions in the world.The most traditional way of Chinese painting is

What is the most important invention of all time?Is it the written word that
helps us to record information?Is it the telephone that lets us talk to people from
all over the world?Is it the car that lets us travel at great speed to meet others?
Umberto Eco,an Italian writer,thinks it is something quite different.He says the
most important invention might be right in front of your eyes.He is talking about
a simple pair of glasses.
Modern eye glasses were invented around 1,000 years ago.They were more than
just a convenient way to read.Before glasses were invented,writers,scientists or
teachers who could not see properly had to memorize everything.After about ten years
of poor eyesight,they could not remember well enough and could not work.Glasses
meant that people could work in their old age.People who wanted to remember some
information could write it down and read it.Eye glasses are one of the world's
greatest inventions and were probably worn by the people who designed the first
telephone and car.
A56.What happened after glasses were invented?

Should Teenagers Go Out with Friends on Weekends?
Recently I've had a discussion with my parents about whether teenagers should
go out with friends on weekends.My parents think that teenagers should stay at home
on weekends.They should go over their lessons.And they could have enough time to
have a good sleep.They also think teenagers should help parents do some housework
on
weekends.______________________________________________________________________

In my opinion,we teenagers should be allowed to go out with friends for fun on
weekends,so we can relax more.And we can also share ideas with each other.What's
more , we can take some exercise together to keep

The Mystery
On November 5th,1872,the Mary Celeste left New York to sail to Italy.The captain,
his wife and daughter and seven sailors were on board.But something terrible
happened.The captain of another ship found the Mary Celeste floating in the middle
of the sea on December 4th,1872.The captain,his family and the sailors were not
on the ship and were never found.
What happened?Why did the sailors and passengers leave the ship?The Mary
Celeste was not broken.Everything was good.There was no fighting,no fire and no
smoke sign.There was still plenty of food and drinking water left.There were signs
that the captain,his family and the sailors had left the ship in a hurry.We could
tell all these because there was halfeaten food on the table.The sailors also left
all their clothing behind.Even their shoes were beside their beds.
How and when did the people leave the ship?Some people said that the lifeboat
was still on the ship but others said it was missing.The captain's diary was found
on the ship and the last entry(登记) was made on November 24th.So,we could only
guess that the happening time was between November 24th and December 4th.
An investigator(调查者) went aboard the ship several times to search for the
answers to all these questions.But he could not find any.No one else could solve
the mystery.

C.The people on the Mary Celeste could not be found.
D.Some food and clothing were left on the Mary Celeste.
A54.Which of the following was NOT found on the ship after the event?

Taos is a small town in New Mexico,America.Many people come here for a visit
every year.They do not come to see the beautiful scenes or eat delicious food.They
67
come to listen to a kind of strange sound:Taos Hum.
The word “hum” means a low sound that never stops.Why is the sound strange?
Firstly,the Taos Hum that people hear is quite different.Someone says it sounds
like a little bee flying around you.Others think it sounds like a car moving in a
faraway place.
Secondly,no one knows where the sound comes from.Joe Mullins,a scientist from
the University of New Mexico,is the first person to do research on the Taos Hum.He
put sensitive equipment (敏感设备) in places where people could hear the hum,but
the equipment could not “hear” any hum!
Many people try to explain the strange sound.Someone says it is a noise made
by insects.Someone believes it must come from some secret government
projects.Someone says there might be an underground UFO base (基地)!But up to this
day,no one can make sure which is right.
It might be interesting for visitors to listen to the hum,but it is not for
people who live in the town.They have to hear the sound all the time.That is really
a hard life.
