　　二、阅读理解 (共 50 分)

　　篇章 1：

　　Different countries have different customs in giving gifts. In China you must never give a clock to a Chinese person, because the pronunciation of the word for “clock” in Chinese is similar to the pronunciation of “death” . Also, don’t wrap(用 … 包裹) a gift in white, black, or blue paper, because they are the colors for funerals  (葬礼) . Don’t give a knife, because something sharp can cut a friendship.

　　In Russia if you give flowers as gifts, you have to give an odd number of them ( one, three, five, etc. ) because even numbers of flowers are for funerals.

　　篇章 2：

　　You can get pretty in life without being smart. You won’t, however, get anywhere with poor social skills.

　　One reason is that social skills can only be developed in a social atmosphere (氛围). So unless you plan to live on a lonely island for the rest of your life, you need to learn how to get along with other people. Otherwise social awkwardness (难堪), difficulty in meeting people and being unable to communicate your ideas will hurt you no matter who you are.

　　On the other hand, having great social skills can be helpful in almost any situation. If you can easily make friends, share your thoughts and understand other persons’ feelings, these abilities can make you better at almost anything you do.

　　Genes ( 基因) certainly play a role in how outgoing you can be. But social skills, like reading and writing, can be trained. You aren’t born able to read, why do you expect any other skill to develop automatically? Several years ago, if you had told me social skills were in your genes, I would have believed you. I had few close friends and had difficulty sharing my ideas. I spent most of my time, lonely. Finally, I was tired of the way things were and tried to change them. I joined Toastmasters to work on Public Speaking. I started writing every day and I put myself in new places to meet new people. No improvement took place at once, but you can hardly see any marks of my old life now.

　　31．Which is not a social skill?

　　A ．Sharing ideas.     B ．Feeling hurt.       C ．Meeting people.    D．Making friends.

　　32．We know that ________ according to the passage.

　　A ．there is a great difference between social skills and reading ability

　　B ．if you can’t read, you can’t develop social skills either

　　C ．both social skills and reading ability can be developed quickly

　　D ．both social skills and reading ability have to be improved through efforts

　　33．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “automatically”?

　　A ． 自动地     B ．逐渐地      C ．积极地      D ．努力地

　　34．Which is right according to the passage?

　　B ．The writer’s life has changed a little.

　　C ．The writer’s life has changed a lot.

　　D ．The writer didn’t want to change his life.

　　C ．What Determines (决定) Social Skills      D ．How to Improve Social Skills

　　篇章 3：

　　The swan  (天鹅) is a large, beautiful bird with a long neck, big white wings and wide feet. It is a great flyer because of its strong wings. It is also a good swimmer, swimming quickly and nicely through the water. But on dry land. It’s a different story-the swan’s heavy body and slow walk make it look a bit funny! Swans live anywhere there is fresh water, like lakes and slow-moving rivers. They eat water plants and small fish. Swans are very territorial  (地盘性的) , which means that they protect their homes against any strangers. When swans want to look strong, they stand up tall, show their long necks and open their big wings while letting out big noises. In spring, swans make a nest (巢) of tree leaves near the water. They often use the same nest year after year, repairing it when egg laying time comes round. The mother swan lays between five and eight eggs in the nest, and then sits on them to keep them warm and safe until,  about  a  month  later,  cygnets  are  born.  Sometimes  the  father  swan  will  take  the first-born cygnets out onto the water while the mother stays to look after the other eggs. The cygnets are looked after by both parents, who will fight other animals, people or even boats if they think their cygnets are in danger!

　　Drones(无人机) can do a lot of things for us, such as taking photos, delivering packages and following wild animals. But they have other uses now.

　　Can you believe it? Drones can serve people coffee. US company IBM has made this kind of drone. It can deliver coffee to sleepy people.

The drone drops off the package and then returns to its home.

　　A 92-year-old hunter(猎人) in Virginia was lost and had to spend a night in the woods. The police searched for him all night but failed to find him. Luckily, the drone tracked ( 跟 踪)him down in 20 minutes. Also, drones helped the firefighters know about the fire in the wildfire fight.
