Who can think of a situation __________ this idiom can be used?

A.whichB.thatC.whereD.inthat

閱讀理解

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。

  There are people in Italy who can't stand soccer.Not all Canadians love hockey.A similar situation exists in America, where there are those individuals you may be one of them who frown when somebody mentions baseball.Baseball to them means boring hours watching grown men in funny tight outfits standing around in a field staring away while very little of anything happens.They tell you it's a game better suited to the 19 th century, slow, quiet, and gentlemanly.These are the same people you may be one of them who love football because there's the sport that values “the hit”.

  By contrast, baseball seems abstract, cool, silent, still.

  On TV the game is divided into a dozen perspectives, replays, close-ups.The geometry(幾何學) of the game, however, is essential to understanding it.You will view the game from one point as a painter does his subject; you may, of course, project yourself into the game.It is in this projection that the game affords so much space and time for involvement.The TV won't do it for you.

  Take, for example, the third baseman.You sit behind the third base and you watch him watching home plate.His legs are apart, knees flexed(彎曲).His arms hang loose.He does a lot of this.The skeptic(懷疑論者) still cannot think of any other sports so still, so passive.But watch what happens every time the pitcher throws:the third baseman goes up on his toes, flexes his arms or brings the glove to a point in front of him, takes a step right or left, backward or forward, perhaps he glances across the field to check his first baseman's position.Suppose the pitch is a ball.“Nothing happened,” you say.“I could have had my eyes closed.”

  The skeptic and the innocent must play the game.And this involvement in the stands is no more intellectual than listening to music is.Watch the third baseman.Smooth the dirt in front of you with one foot; smooth the pocket in your glove; watch the eyes of the batter, the speed of the bat, the sound of ball on wood.If football is a symphony of movement and theatre, baseball is chamber music, a spacious interlocking(連鎖) of notes, chorus(和聲) and responses.

(1)

The passage is mainly concerned with ________

[  ]

A.

the different tastes of people for sports

B.

the superiority of football

C.

the attraction of baseball

D.

the different characteristics of sports

(2)

Those who don't like baseball may complain that ________

[  ]

A.

it is only to the taste of the old

B.

it is not exciting enough

C.

it involves fewer players than football

D.

it is pretentious and looks funny

(3)

The author admits that ________

[  ]

A.

baseball is too peaceful for the young

B.

football is more attracting than baseball

C.

baseball is more interesting than football

D.

baseball may seem boring when watched on TV

(4)

By stating “I could have had my eyes closed.” the author means (4 th paragraph last sentence) ________

[  ]

A.

Even if the third baseman closed his eyes a moment ago, it could make no difference to the result

B.

The third baseman is so good at baseball that he could finish the game with eyes closed all the time and do his work well

C.

The consequence was so bad that he could not bear to see it

D.

The third baseman would rather sleep than play the game

Doors and windows can’t keep them out; airport immigration officers can’t stop them and the Internet is a complete reproduction soil. They seem harmless in small doses, but large imports threaten Japan’s very uniqueness, say critics. “They are foreign words and they are infecting the Japanese language”.

“Sometimes I feel like I need a translator to understand my own language, ”says Yoko Fujimura with little anger, a 5-year-old Tokyo restaurant worker.“It’s becoming incomprehensible”.

It’s not only Japan who is on the defensive. Countries around th globe are wet through their hands over the rapid spread of American English. Coca?Cola,for example, is one of the most recognized terms on Earth.

It is made worse for Japan, however, by its unique writing system. The country writes all imported utterances(言論) except Chinese?in a different script called katakana (片假名). It is the only country to keep up such a difference. Katakana takes far more space to write than kanji?the core pictograph (象形文字) characters that the Japanese borrowed from China 1,500 years ago. Because it stands out, readers complain that sentences packed with foreign words start to look like extended strings of lights. As if that weren’t enough, katakana terms tend to get puzzling.

 For example, digital camera first appears as degitaru kamera. Then they became the more ear?pleasing digi kamey. But kamey is also the Japanese word for turtle. “It’s very disappointing not knowing what young people are talking about,” says humorously Minoru Shiratori, a 53?year?old bus driver. “Sometimes I can’t tell if they’re discussing cameras or turtles.”

In a bid to stop the flood of katakana, the government has formed a Foreign Words Committee to find suitable Japanese replacements. The committee is slightly different from French?style language police, which try to support a law that forbids advertising in English. Rather, committee members and traditionalists hope a non?stop campaign of persuasion, gentle criticism and leadership by example can turn the tide.

12.According to the author, the reason why the Japanese is infectd greatly by English is .      

A.that nothing can prevent it from entering into Japan

B.that English is the most recognized language in the world

C.that the government has not set up a special administration department to control this trend   before it becomes popular in Japan

D.not clearly mentioned in this passage

13.By saying “counties around the globe are wet through their hands over the rapid spread of American English,”the author infers that        .

A.even a restaurant worker in Japan may feel the English infection on Japanese

B.the flood of katakana has covered most of countries in the world

C.Coca?Cola is the most popuar on the earth and this product covers all the global market

D.many other countries are affected greatly by American English

14.According to the author, the last paragraph mainly deals with.      

A.how French-style language police has prevented the infection of English

B.how Japanese Foreign Words Committee prevents the infection of foreign words

C.the suitable Japanese replacements

D.why committee members and traditionalists begin to declare a war against the infection of foreign words

15.Which conclusion can be drawn based on the opinions from the Japanese people (in paragraph 2 and 4 of this passage)?

A.The elders strongly advocates replacing the foreign words than young people.

B.All the people dislike speaking the foreign words, such as “digi kamey”.

C.They are so old that it is necessary to give some language assistance by a specialist.

D.People’s work determines the language they speak.

閱讀理解
     Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. Choice ,we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world,in rich and poor
countries, choice is a luxury , something wonderful but hard to get, not a right. And for those who think
th ey are exercising their right to make choices , the whole  system  is merely an illusion , a false idea
created by companies and advertisers hoping to sell their products.
     The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people's lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot
is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness
in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away, or just  buying  an  unsuitable  item
(商品) that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought
in almost every family are not really needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or
trusted into the hands of the professionals ,lifestyle instructors , or advisors.
      It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of
products come on the market. Advances in design and production help quicken the process. Products
also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The typical example is computers , which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes selection a problem. Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing:  no choice, no anxiety.
1. What does the author try to argue in Paragraph l?     
A. The exercise of rights is a luxury.
B. The practice of choice is difficult.
C. The right of choice is given but at a price.
D. Choice and right exist at the same time.
2. Why do more choices of goods give rise to anxiety?     
A. Professionals find it hard to decide on a suitable product.
B. People are likely to find themselves overcome by business persuasion.
C. Shoppers may find themselves lost in the broad range of items.
D. Companies and advertisers are often misleading about the range of choice.
3. By using computers as an example, the author wants to prove that___________.  
A. advanced products meet the needs of people
B. products of the latest design flood the market
C. competitions are fierce in high-tech industry
D. everyday goods need to be replaced often
4. What is this passage mainly about?  
A. The variety of choices in modern society.
B. The opinions on people's right in different countries.
C. The problems about the availability of everyday goods.
D. The helplessness in purchasing decisions.
