Theres no exchange of presents among business people, and if one American tries to give another a present, it may look like that he wants to bribe (贿赂) him. Americans have learned that in some other countries people like to give presents to others, but among ourselves we dont see the need for presents.Even friends may never exchange presents. When I go to foreign countries, I try to bring back little things for close friends, but nobody would feel unhappy if I didnt. I don't often remember a friend's birthday, and few people outside of my family remember mine. If someone gave me presents too often, Id get unpleasant. But a present from a foreigner - that kind from his or her homeland won't go wrong, except to government employees (政府职员) who cant be given presents.You usually open a present at once and in front of the person who gives it except Christmas and birthday presents. You should only say, “It's so nice. Thanks” when you get Christmas or birthday presents.You may want to bring a bottle of wine (葡萄酒) or flowers to a dinner party, but youre never asked to. Nobody will mind if you bring wine, but your friend may not use it that evening.At Christmas we often give presents to our family and sometimes our friends. We also give presents to people who have been helpful during the year- doormen, babysitters, housecleaners, newspaper senders anyone who has often helped us.BCA51. What kind of presents don't Americans usually open in front of the givers? A. The small presents. B. Christmas or birthday presents. C. The expensive presents. D. The presents for dinner party.52. Why do Americans also give presents to housecleaners at Christmas? A. To pay them. B. To help them.C. To thank them. D. To make them work harder.53. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Present-giving in the United States. B. Customs (习俗) in the United States.C. American people and present-giving. D. When and how to give presents.B）Here's one very simple but life changing advice that I first heard from Brian Tracy. Cut down on the TV at night by just one hour. Instead, use that hour to read books that could improve your life.If you're a salesman, google for the best and most useful books on improving your sales.This applies (适用) to all fields, not just the work-related (与工作相关的) ones. Maybe you want to improve your health, become a more energetic person. Or maybe you want to improve your study, your relations or perhaps do some personal development.One hour a day is not much. But if you read for one hour a day on weekdays, that's about 260 hours a year. That's a large number of books and a lot of useful advice.If you follow the ideas, who knows what great things and feelings could come into your life. Also, all that information and advice will start to open up your mind. You will start to see more chances in your life.Now, you might think something like this:1. I really don't have the money.Answer: Visit your public library or search the database (数据库). Or look for books that are used in places like .2. I really don't have the time.Answer: Buy audiobooks and listen to them in the car while driving to and from work. Or copy them to your MP3-player and listen while riding your bike /bus to work or school. Recently selling audiobooks through MP3-downloads has become popular. Shut off the TV a little earlier and start reading. 54. What is Brian Tracys life changing advice about？A. Watching TV. B. Listening to MP3.C. Surfing the internet.D. Reading helpful books.55. What should you do if you really don't have the money to read? A. To buy some books from . B. To download MP3 free.C. To visit the public library. D. To borrow audiobooks and listen to them.56.

Audiobooks are a good solution to the problem of having no time to read.C）Napoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana(加纳), Africa. It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily(日常) cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They cant get enough clean water to keep healthy. Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource(自然资源) on the earth.Water covers 70% of the earths surface(表面). But most of that is sea water. We cant use it for very many things. Fresh water covers only 1% of the earths surface. You probably feel lucky that your life isnt as hard as Napogas. But that doesnt mean you dont have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes, and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too. Now, 34% of all kinds of fish are dying out. How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they pollute the air. Then, when it rains, the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain(酸雨), is also bad for plants, animals and buildings. Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world wont have enough clean water. We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice for saving water:Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450 liters(升) each month. Leaky taps(漏水的龙头) waste a lot of water. Fix them right away! You can easily cut your 10-minute showers(沐浴) in halfand youll be just as clean. When you wash dishes, dont let the water run. Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash. If your washing machine isnt full, youre wasting water!( )57. Every morning Napoga went to get clean water _.A. before she went to school
