4.根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,選擇最佳答案.
When thinking of Britain,many images come to mind:Big Ben,the Ferris wheel,red telephone boxes …and black London taxis.The taxi has an important role in London.
But what is so special about a simple taxi?First of all,the shape and style are very different from those of ordinary taxis.It looks like a half-car and half-van(半廂式貨車).It has plenty of room in the back,which means it's easy for disabled people to use.And the black color makes it stand out on the road.
Besides the style of the car,taxi drivers have an important part in your travel.They have to pass a taxi driving test,and in London it is very difficult.As there are many tourists in London,drivers must know many roads by memory!
Apart from driving you to your destination,it is normal for the driver and passenger to have a conversation.Getting a taxi involves (涉及) a social space which the driver and you share.The image of a London taxi driver is one that is friendly and talkative.Most times when I get a taxi,I ask how the driver is.Then we usually talk about sports or new events.
In China,I've noticed that taxi drivers are usually quieter.Sometimes I try to speak with them in Chinese.And when I do,they usually seem friendly and open to talk.It's also a good situation to practice my Chinese!

D.It looks like a half-car and half-van

A.Because the taxi drivers are quiet.
B.Because it has plenty of room in the front.

15.In Canada and United States,people enjoy entertaining(請(qǐng)客)at home.They often invite friends over for a meal,a party,or just for coffee and conversation.
Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their home:
"Would you like to come over for dinner Saturday night?"
"Hey,we're having a party on Friday.Can you come?"
To reply to an invitation,either say thank you and accept,or say you're sorry and give an excuse:"Thanks,I'd love to.What time would you like me to come?"or"Oh,sorry.I've tickets for a movie,"
Sometimes,however,people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real invitations.For example:
"Please come over for a drink sometime."
"Let's get together for lunch soon."
"Why don't you come over and see us sometime soon?"
They are really just polite ways of ending a conversation.They are not real invitations because thay don't mention a specific(具體的) time or date.They just show that the person is trying to be friendly.To reply to expressions like these,people just say:"Sure,that would be great!"or OK.Yes,thanks."
So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation,listen carefully.Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?

51.Why do people often invite friends to their homes in Canada and the United States?C
A.Because they have modern and beautiful houses.
B.Because they don't like going out for entertainment.
C.Because they enjoy enterainment at home.
D.Because they can spend less money.
52.Which of the following is NOT a real invitation?B
A."Would you like to have a cup of tea with us this evening?"
B."Please go to the concert with me some day."
C."I've two tickets here.Can you go to the concert with me?"
D."If you're free,let's go to Wang's for a drink."
53.People use"an unreal invitation"in order to show thatA.
A.they're trying to be friendly
B.they're trying to be honest
C.they're trying to make friends with others

14.Most people want to be happy,but few know how to find happiness.Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness.Happiness depends on ourselves.In other words,we make our own happiness.
Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life.Too often,we spend so much time thinking about the future--for example,getting into college or getting a good job that we fail to enjoy the present(現(xiàn)在).You should enjoy life's simple pleasures,such as reading a good book,listening to your favorite music,or spending time with close friends.People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret of living a happy life is to be active,and hobbies make you forget your problems and time.Many people experience this by dancing,swimming or playing a sport.You can forget about your problems,and only think about the activity.
Finally,many people find happiness in helping others.Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others.If you want to feel happier,do good things for someone.You can help a friend with his or her studies,go shopping to buy food for an elderly person,or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
66.The passage gives us three pieces of advice onB.
A.how to solve problem                
B.how to find happiness
C.how to enjoy life                     
D.how to succeed

A.the more friends you have,the happier you will be    
B.we shouldn't think about our future
