Now often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups and old people wishing they were young again．Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without, t wasting his time in useless regrets．
Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult．If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever be may do．It is impossible that he will ever, again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return．What's more, life is always giving new things to the child--things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known, but a child has his pains : he is not so free to do what he wishes to do ; he is repeatedly being told not to do something, or being punished for what he has wrongly done．
When a young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortable．If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry．And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison．
If, however, he works hard, keeps out troubled and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his oven position in society．
1．In the second paragraph, the writer tries to tell us that_____________．
A．life for a child is fairly easy
B．a(chǎn) child is always loved whatever he does
C．if much is given to a child, he must do something in return
D．only children are interested in life
2．Which of the following is TRUE about children according to the text?
A．Children often break laws when they are young．
B．There are a few responsibilities for childhood their-make life difficult．
C．Children have pleasures and pains as well．
D．If a child has good parents, he can do whatever he likes．
3．the main idea of the text is that ___________．
A．life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains
B．young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard
C．childhood is the most enjoyable time in one's life
D．one is the happiest if he 'can make good use of each age in his life

It is Saturday afternoon. You and your friends are planning to go to the movies and then spend the night together. Just as you start to get ready, your dad reminds you that it is your aunt's birthday and the whole family is going out to dinner to celebrate. How can this possibly end without a huge argument?
One of the greatest sources of tension (緊張情緒) between teenagers and their families is the struggle to balance personal desires with family expectations. As you are getting older, you are becoming more independent and more interested in being with your friends.
However，at the same time，your family is trying to figure out how to deal with these changes. While you once spent most of your free time with your family, you are now often absent from home. Parents may get their feelings hurt. Or they might feel that they are losing control of their family during this period. You might feel angry that so many family demands are placed on you.
There are a few things you can try to make it a little easier to ease (緩解) the tension.
* Make your plans in advance. Ask your parents if there is anything else planned at that time.
* When something with your friends interferes (沖突) with a family event，try to figure out if there is any way you can do both.
* Suggest something you would really like to do with your family. Sometimes parents feel better just knowing their teenager wants to spend time with them.
Some of the time you won’t be happy with the outcome (結(jié)果). You might either have to disappoint your parents or have to miss out being with your friends. However, if you show consideration for the feelings of both your family and your friends，you can solve the problem in a tender way.
The purpose of the first paragraph is to _________.
A. show a disagreement of views B. serve as a description of teenager trouble
C. serve as an introduction to the discussion
D. show the popularity of teenager problem
The tension between teenagers and their families is caused by the fact that____________.
A. teenagers don’t like to take family demands
B. parents want to keep their family under control
C. parents feel unhappy that their children make so many friends
D. both parents and teenagers don’t pay attention to each other’s feeling much
What’s the purpose of the passage?

B. To advise teenagers how to deal with their tension with their families.
C. To persuade parents to show consideration for teenagers.

Most people think the first pies were made by early Romans. They may have learned about pie making from the Greeks. These pies were sometimes made in"reeds (蘆葦葉)", which were used for the purpose of holding the filling (餡 ), and were not eaten.
The Romans spread the word about pies around Europe and the word"pie"became a popular word in the 14th century. The first pie recipe (食譜) was also published by the Romans.
Pies first appeared in England as early as the twelfth century. The early pies were mostly meat pies. There was actually more crust(皮)than filling. Often these pies were made from fowl ( 家禽) and the fowl's legs were left to hang over the side of the dish and used as handles. Fruit pies were probably first made in the 1500s. It is said that Queen Elizabeth I made the first cherry pie.
Pie came to America with the first English settlers. The early settlers cooked their pies in long narrow pans. As in the Roman times, the early American pie crusts were often not eaten, but simply used to hold the filling during baking(烘焙).
Over the years, pie has become what it is today --- "the most traditional American dessert". Pie has become so much a part of American culture that we now often use the phrase "as American as apple pie".
51. Which people might probably first grasp the skill to make pies?
A. The Romans. B. The Greeks. C. The Englishmen. D. The Americans.
52. Which of the following is NOT true about pies?
A. English settlers brought pies to America.
B. Early Romans ate not only pies but also the crusts.
C. The Romans first published pie recipe.
D. The word “pie ” became popular because of the Romans` efforts.
53. What can best show pies have become part of American culture?
A. Americans use long narrow pans to cook pies.

“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine.”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine.” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello!” or “Hi!”.
Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks, “Do you agree?”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong …” But it isn’t very polite to disagree strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure …”. It’s a nice way to say that you don’t agree with someone.
People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I’ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse, “Someone is at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or it might not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.
When they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s also a part of the game of language.
60. When a person in the United States asks “How are you?”, he or she wants to hear “___________”
A. How are you? B. Hello! C. I don’t know. D. Fine.
61. When a person wants to disagree with someone, it is polite to say “___________”
A. You’re wrong. I disagree. B. I’m not sure.
C. I’m sure I disagree. D. No, I disagree.
62. When a person says “I’ve to go now. Someone is at the door.”, he or she may be __________.
A. giving an excuse B. hurting someone’s feeling
C. talking to a person at the door D. going to another place
63. One of the rules of the game of language is probably “_________”
A. Always say what you mean. B. Don’t disagree with people.
C. Never say exactly what you’re thinking. D. Be polite.
