10、 promised bridegroom of the Barons daughter. An arrangement had been made between the Baron and an old nobleman of Bavaria, Berton, for a marriage between their children. It would increase the importance of both families. The initial plans had been made in the usual way: the young people were engage

11、d without having met each other and the date set for the wedding. The young Count(伯爵) Von Altenburg had been recalled from the army and was on his way to the castle to meet his promised bride. Messages had been received from Wurtzburg where he was accidentally delayed. The messages indicated the day

12、 and time when he might be expected to arrive. The castle was in a fever of preparation to provide him with a suitable welcome. Anne had dressed with particular care. Bertha and Wilda had selected her clothing and quarreled all morning about what she should wear. The young lady had taken advantage o

13、f their arguments to wear exactly what she wanted and had chosen very well. She looked as beautiful as any young bridegroom could wish for, and the excitement made her look even lovelier. The two aunts constantly directed her, as single aunts usually take a great interest in the love affairs of othe

14、rs. They were giving her the final instructions on how to behave, what to say, and how to greet her intended husband. Hour by hour passed. The sun, which had been so warm over the rich forests of the Odenwald, was now setting along the tops of the mountains. The Baron went to the tallest tower in th

15、e castle to see if he could see any sign of the Count and his escorts. Once, he thought he saw them. The sound of horns came floating up from the valley. A party of men was seen far below, riding slowly along the road. It was a false alarm, for when they reached the foot of the mountain, they sudden

16、ly rode off in a different direction. The sun, by now, had set, and the bats began to fly about in the evening light. It was getting dark, and the only movement on the road was the occasional worker returning home.21. What can best describe the bridegroom?A. He accepted his intended marriage arrange

17、d without his knowledge. B. He was eager to meet his intended wife so he retired from the army. C. He wouldnt have been welcomed by the bride had he arrived on time. D.

18、pointed feeling of the Baron family? A. The sun was so warm over the rich forests of the Odenwald. B. The Baron went to the tallest tower to see if he could see any sign of the Count. C. The sound of horns came floating up from the valley. D. The sun had set, and the bats began to fly about in the e

19、vening light.23. What will the author most probably write about in the next paragraph(s)? A. What happened to the bride. B. What happened to the bridegroom. C. What happened to the Baron. D. What happened to the aunts.BWith the Tesla Roadster and other plug-in（插入） electric vehicles hitting the road,

20、 demand is growing for accessible refueling points to recharge them. Carbon Day Automotive, a Chicago-based company, has now demonstrated a solar-powered recharging point, known as the Solar Plug-In Station, which lets motorists easily charge their cars using electricity that has been produced witho

21、ut any environmental damage.The Solar Plug-In Station went on show in Chicago as part of the citys bid to host the 2016 Olympic Games. According to Carbon Day Automotive, the solar-powered recharging station is part of the vital infrastructure (基础设施) required for electric vehicles in Chicago and was

22、 the focus of the previous visit by the International Olympic Committee.These solar-powered electricity points will be used daily by Chicago to fuel the citys electric vehicles with power from the sun. By producing the electricity from pollution-free solar cells, the CO2 emissions are reduced to zer

23、o.Solar energy and electric vehicles are a partnership that is one more step to reducing our dependence on foreign oil. Coulomb Technologies recently developed the components required for individual recharging stations, marketed as ChargePoint Networked Charging Stations. Carbon Day Automotive is th

24、e Midwest distributor for the ChargePoint stations.The Solar Plug-In Station consists of giant solar panels (电池板) that shade the tiny ChargePoint Networked Charging Station. The solar panel is connected to an underground battery pack, ready for everyday refueling.“Without these stations it would be

25、like driving around in traditional cars without the availability of gas stations,” says Scott Emalfarb, CEO at Carbon Day. “The day of true plug-in electric vehicles will be here sooner than most people realize and the world needs to be ready to accommodate them.”24. The Solar Plug-In Station was us

26、ed as part of the bid to host the Olympics mainly because _.A. its a new idea and attracts peoples attentionB. its environmentally friendlyC. it makes up for the lack of electricityD. it brings convenience to electric vehicle users25. We can learn from the passage that _.A. the Solar Plug-In Station

27、 has gone on show internationallyB. the Solar Plug-In Station is likely to be put to use in 2016C. to recharge the electric vehicles sometimes takes a long timeD. Chicago is promoting the application of electric vehicles26. The passage implies that with the Solar Plug-In Station becoming popular, _.

28、A. more visitors will come to ChicagoB. the citizens in Chicago will go to work fasterC. more space for electric vehicles is needed D. the cost of electric vehicles will be lower than traditional cars27.

29、icago Calls on People to Buy Electric VehiclesCChicago Fights for Its Bid to Host the 2016 OlympicsDChicago Shows Its Solarpowered Recharging StationsC Britain was once regarded as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics. In recent years, many writers have begun to sp

30、eak the decline of class and classless society in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class. But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular

31、class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratificati

32、on. One unchanging aspect of a British persons class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice. Most people said this accent sounded educated a

33、nd soft. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional（地区的）city accents. These accents were seen as common and ugly. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and B

34、BC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice(偏见). In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indicati

35、on of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song Common People puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may want to live like common people they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.28. A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain _.A. mo

36、st people belong to middle class B people regard themselves socially different C. it is time to end class distinction D. it is easy to recognize a persons class29.

The middle class is expanding B. A persons accent reflectshisclassC. Class is a key part of British society

38、D. Each class has unique characteristics.D“Your first home,” Laurence Yep wrote in his book, The lost Garden, “will always be the one that you remember best. I have been away from it for over twenty years, but I still go back in my dreams.” For Yep, whose father came from China, home was an apartmen

39、t and the family grocery store in a neighborhood of San Francisco. It was there that he learned about patience, hard work, and getting along with neighbours.Mr. Brown, Laurence Yeps high school English teacher, often set high goals for his students. He was the first person to encourage Yep to write.

40、 The experience of that class changed the direction of Yeps life. At the age of 18 Yep published his first short story, a sci-fi fantasy. He has since written many books and many kinds of books. He has retold Chinese folk stories and written for the theater. In nearly all these varied works, Yep, wh

41、o is married to the childrens book author Joanne Ryder, has returned to questions he has been asking himself since childhood: What does it mean to be Chinese and American? Can one who belongs to two cultures ever feel at home anywhere?When asked, “How has being of a Chinese by origin been important

42、to you?” Laurence Yep replied, “As a child I wanted to be as American as possible. Then, in my early twenties, I became very interested in my Chinese roots. For years after that, I thought that my function as a Chinese American writer was to act as a bridge between two cultures. Now, though, I am no

43、t so sure that it is possible to join them together. Compared with Asian culture, American culture pays more attention to individuals and competition. The two cultures pull in opposite directions. So I see myself now as someone who will always be on the border between two cultures. That works to my

44、benefit as a writer because now quite fitting in helps me be a better observer.”32. According to Paragraph 1, Laurence Yep _.A. misses his first home very muchB. goes back to China from time to time C. moved to San Francisco at an early ageD. once worked part-time at a grocery store 33.

The last paragraph is mainly about Laurence Yeps _.A. childhood memories B. varied wri

46、ting styles C. view of the two cultures D. relationship with his family 35. Which of the following best describes Laurence Yeps attitude to life?A. Learn to accept your own differences. B. Put the needs of others ahead of your own. C. Work hard and you will receive many benefits. D. Challenge others
