“How are you?”is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the USA greet each other. But “How are you?”is also a very unusually question. It’s a question that often doesn’t need 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 think, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong.”But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.”It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone. People also don’t exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say “I’ve to go now.”O(jiān)ften, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse,“Someone’s at the door.”“Something is burning on the stove.”The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hand 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. Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly that they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language.

試題分析:本文敘述了日常生活中的一些交際用語!澳愫軉?”和 “好”,只是“你好”的另一種說法,并不是真的問題。不同意某人時,“不,我不同意,我認為你是錯的,”這種強烈的說法是不禮貌的,禮貌的說法是“我不確定.”。當打電話的人想掛斷電話時,會說“有人在敲門”或者“爐子上的東西快糊了”。人們不會真實的說出他們的想法,是想對彼此好。
小題1:根據(jù)They are simply other ways of saying “Hello.”or “Hi.”可知“How are you?”只是“你好”的另一種說法。故與文中意思相符,故為T。
小題2:根據(jù)But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.”It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone. 可知強烈地不同意是不禮貌的,不同意某人時,禮貌的說法是“I’m not sure.”,因此此處與文中意思不符,故為F。
小題3:根據(jù)For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say “I’ve to go now.”可知當有人說“I’ve to go now.”時,表示打電話結(jié)束了。故為F。
小題4:根據(jù)Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse,“Someone’s at the door.”“Something is burning on the stove.”可知經(jīng)常有人想要掛斷電話,給出的借口是“Someone’s at the door”和“Something is burning on the stove.”。此處與文中意思相符,故為T。
小題5:根據(jù)people don’t say exactly that they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language. 可知人們不會真實的說出他們的想法,是想對彼此好。故為T。

My name is Lin Hui. I like to tell stories about people who work together. What is even better is when countries help each other and build a good friendship. An excellent example of this happened when Britain and China worked together to bring the Milu deer back to China.
Milu deer, a kind of animal with large horns(角), used to be common in China long ago. Like other deer they lived together and ate grass and the soft parts of trees. Milu deer were often killed for food or sport. The Ming and Qing dynasties(朝代) did not protect them and many were killed. That is how the Milu deer disappeared from China.
Luckily before all of them were killed, some were taken to Britain to improve the environment of the beautiful park which belonged to the Duke of Bedford. He liked them so much that he took them from China to Britain. Milu deer liked the cool, wet weather in England and their number increased year by year. As a result, when in 1985 the government of China wanted to bring back the Milu deer, the Duke of Bedford was able to help. The first deer came back to China to the Nanhaizi Milu Park 20 kilometers south of Beijing and the centre in Dafeng, Jiangsu province.
The deer certainly seem happy to be back in China because their number has grown quickly. There are now so many of them that a new park has been opened for them in Hubei Province. At the moment the Milu deer live in centres where they are being well protected and cared for. It is hoped that one day there will be enough animals to let them live in the wild again.

On a hot African morning, Leila was lying on her stomach and an elephant was walking towards her. Leila waited. Then she pushed the button on her camera. “And I got my best photo of an elephant ever, by lying under my car,” Leila explained. “I wanted to get close to the elephants, but of course this was dangerous; they had their babies with them. So every morning I used to park my car in the open near the path (小道). They used to take the same path every morning when they left the water hole. After a week, they were used to seeing my car. So the next morning, I lay under it and got my photo!”
Many of the best wildlife photos come from good planning. In Africa, photographers set up their hides (隱匿處) near water holes. They also set up hides near forest paths, as animals use the same paths every night. For bird-watching, many lakes have hides. Inside the hides, bird-watchers can watch all day in the shade (蔭處) out of the wind and rain.
Good wildlife photos are needed for books, postcards, magazines and newspapers. But a success rate of 1 in 20 is good.
小題1:Why did Leila lie under her car on the stomach?
A.Because she wanted to sleep.
B.Because she wanted to take photos but was afraid of the animals.
C.Because it’s easy to see the elephants.
D.Because it’s very comfortable.
小題2:How can photographers take good photos?
A.By making good preparation.
B.By going into the forest at night.
C.By walking around the holes.
D.By going to the nearest lake.
小題3:What can we know from the last sentence of the passage?
A.The successful rate of taking wildlife photos is 50% at most.
B.Photographers who take wildlife photos need more practice.
C.To take good wildlife photos is not difficult.
D.It’s hard to take good wildlife photos.

When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s,we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap, and drove a white truck. As a five-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer(硬幣兌換器) fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery, and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese and eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note, “Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery,” and put it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.
All of this was about more than convenience. There was a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr Basille even had a key to my house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we could box indoors, So that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr Basille from time to time, taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allow the production of cheaper milk, so making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere. And it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and fixed it on the back porch(門廊). Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is, so I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milk man who brought us friendship along with his milk.
小題1:Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer______.
A.to please his mother
B.to pay for the delivery
C.to show his magical power
D.to satisfy the boy’s curiosity(好奇心)
小題2:If they needed to change their order, they should____
A.call the milkman
B.wait for the milk
C.leave a note in the box
D.leave a note on the door
小題3:Why is there no longer milk delivery today?
A.It is not allowed by the law.
B.Its service is getting poor.
C.It has been driven out of the market.
D.Nobody wants to be a milkman now.
小題4:Why did writer bring back home an old milk box?
A.He planted flowers in it.
B.He missed the good old days.
C.He needed it for his milk bottles.
D.He wanted to tell interesting stories.

B.He wanted to have tea there.
C.He was fully trusted by the family.
