7．Many large cities in the United States have an area called Chinatown．Each of them was set up by people who came from China．For example，Chinatown in San Francisco，California，began in the l840s．The Chinese immigrants came to America to look for gold．Then the area they lived in later became known as Chinatown．

17．Stanley，as a son of a very poor farmer，left school early and went to work in a factory，for education was for the rich then．So，the world became his school．With great interest，he read everything he could，listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his hometown．"There's so much to learn，"he'd say．"Though we're born stupid，only the stupid remain that way．"He decided that none of his children would be refused an education．
Therefore，Stanley insisted that we should learn at least one new thing each day．Though，as children，we thought this was crazy，we'd still do that．And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we learned．We would talk about the news of the day．Sometimes the news was unimportant，but it was always taken seriously．Stanley would listen carefully and discuss it with us．
Then came the moment-the time to share the day's new learning．
"Felice，"he'd say，"tell me what you learned today．"
"I learned that the population of Denmark is…"
Silence．
Stanley was thinking about what was said．"The population of Denmark．Hmm．Well…"he'd say．"Get the map； let's see where Denmark is．"And the whole family went on a search for Denmark．
This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn．Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts．
As children，we thought very little about these educational wonders．Our family，however，was growing together，sharing experiences and joining in one another's education．And by looking at us，listening to us，respecting what we learned，confirming our value，Stanley was surely our most influential teacher．
Later during my training as a future teacher，I studied with some of the most famous educators．They were imparting（傳授） what Stanley knew all along-the value of continual learning．His skills have served me well all my life．Not a single day has been wasted，though I can never tell when knowing the population of Denmark might prove useful．
36．What do we know from Paragraph 1？B
A．Those born stupid could not change their life．
B．The poor could hardly afford school education．
C．The town elders wanted to learn about the world．
D．The writer's father was born in a worker's family．
37．The underlined word"that"in Paragraph 2refers to（指代）D．
A．one new thing
B．sharing what we learn
C．crazy idea
D．learning one new thing
38．From the passage，we know that the writerC．
A．knew very well about Denmark
B．felt regret about those wasted days
C．thought his father's educational skills useful
D．only talked about important news with his family
39．What is the greatest value of"dinner time"to the writer？A
A．Continual learning．
B．Showing talents．
C．Family get-together．
D．Eating delicious food．
40．What is the best title of this passage？B
A．A poor family

2．Eating out is more popular in Britain today than it has ever been．It is reported that British people spend more eating out than cooking for themselves and eating at home．It seems that many British people are becoming more and more interested in how good their food tastes，and also how healthy it is．
However，eating out can also be expensive，so British people do not eat out every night．When having a date with friends，or having a birthday，many people like to go to a restaurant，and people often also eat in a restaurant before going to the cinema or the theater．
As in all cultures，there are many rules of manners about eating．The knife and fork should be used in the correct way．It is also impolite to  speak with your mouth full then you are eating．
Most British cities have a large collection of food as well as British food，from the very cheap to the very expensive-French，Italian，Indian，Chinese，Thai，Japanese and many，many more．
When people are too tired to cook after work，they often get a"takeaway"．This means that they order from a take-out restaurant by telephone，and then go to get it．Many take-out restaurants also send it to your house．All you have to do is to open the door，pay and eat!

12．Rock climbing（攀巖） did not become a sport until late in the 1900s．But now it has become a popular outdoor activity．While rock climbing may still be necessary for mountain climbing，most people just climb low mountains for fun．
If you have ever done rock climbing，you will know that it is not a very easy sport．Indoor and outdoor rock climbing both need practice．What most people don't know is that rock climbing is one of the sports that depend on your body and mind（意志）．To climb successfully，one must use wonderful skills．One of the important rules is to always have three parts of your body on the rock face．Another important rule is that your arms only hold you close to the rock face while your legs are pushing you up，the closer you are to the rock face，the easier it is to climb．Rock climbing is a wonderful sport．Once you start to learn how to climb，you'll find more fun．People who like games such as chess playing or problem-solving may love rock 
climbing，because they are nearly the same in the way of thinking．For anyone who wants to get into beautiful shape，rock climbing is a fun and good way．Anyone who enjoys a difficult game and loves the outdoors should think of taking rock climbing as a new hobby．

16．The book that can't wait　　One problem a lot of people have with books is that they buy them and then never start reading them．
To （21）C，a foreign publisher called Eterna Cadencia came up with a very clever idea：it printed the words of the books in disappearing ink：the text of the book vanishes（消失） two months after the special package of the book is opened，so that encouraging buyers to start reading it （22）A it goes away．They call this"the book that can't wait．"
According to a video presented with the story，the book was （23）D．The publisher sold out the whole first edition（版） at a bookstore the day it was printed，and received"thousands of requests"for more copies of the book．It also got a lot of news reports．As a result，the publisher is planning to publish （24）B kinds of books in disappearing ink．
In some ways，the idea is pretty clever．（25）A，we still have some suggestions：
First，the book should start the vanishing process after the reader first opens the book．If the vanishing ink books become very popular in the future，readers will need to read them one at a time．They don't want their books to vanish before they read the first page．
Second，the vanished book should find a （26）C use．Maybe they can be recycled，or maybe we can use them as notebooks．It would be a more environmentally friendly way to do this．

21．A．a(chǎn)nswer the questionB．take the place of booksC．solve this problemD．be fond of the books
22．A．beforeB．a(chǎn)fterC．whenD．until
