7、R SHEET with a single line through the center.11 Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States
8、?Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian(百姓的) clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform tends to inspire more
9、trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity(身份 ) than to step out of uniform?Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They
10、save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible(可减税的). They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear
11、them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are
12、 long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.11 It is surprising that Americans who worship varie
13、ty and individuality_.（A）still judge a man by his clothes（B） hold the uniform in such high regard（C） enjoy having a professional identity（D）will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform12 People are accustomed to think that a man in uniform_.（A）suggests quality work（B） discards h
14、is social identity（C） appears to be more practical（D）looks superior to a person in civilian clothes13 The chief function of a uniform is to_.（A）provide practical benefits to the wearer（B） make the wearer catch the public eye（C） inspire the wearers confidence in himself（D）provide the wearer with a pr
15、ofessional identity14 According to the passage, people wearing uniforms_.（A）are usually helpful（B） have little or no individual freedom（C） tend to lose their individuality（D）enjoy greater popularity15 The best title for this passage would be_.（A）Uniforms and Society（B） The Importance of Wearing a Un
16、iform（C） Practical Benefits of Wearing a Uniform（D）Advantages and Disadvantages of Uniforms16 Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by
17、 shooting or poisoning them.Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox acmes the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they
18、kill it or a hunter shoots it.People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy.It is estimated that up to 100,00
19、0 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is brutal(残酷的 ),has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation(冲突) between hunters and hunt saboteurs(阻
20、拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the foxs smell, which the dogs follow.Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they fire almost as mach a part of huntin
21、g as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is pass
22、ed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.16 Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes_.（A）for recreation（B） in the interests of the farmers（C） to limit the fox population（D）to show off their wealth17 What is special about fox hunting in Britain?（A）It involves the u
23、se of a deadly poison.（B） It is a costly event which rarely occurs.（C） The hunters have set rules to follow.（D）The hunters have to go through strict training.18 Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game_.（A）by resorting to violence（B） by confusing the fox hunters（C） by taking legal action（D）
24、by demonstrating on the scene19 A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to_.（A）prohibit farmers from hunting foxes（B） forbid hunting foxes with dogs（C） stop hunting wild animals in the countryside（D）prevent large-scale fox hunting20 It can be inferred from the passage that_.（A）killing foxe
25、s with poison is illegal（B） limiting the fox population is. unnecessary（C） hunting foxes with dogs is considered cruel and violent（D）fox-hunting often leads to confrontation between the poor and the rich21 The first ancient Olympics were held in 776 B.C.

26、eek city where they took place. Like the summer Olympics of today, the ancient Olympics were held every four years.Thousands of people from all over the Greek world came to watch.

But over time the games grew to include wrestling, chariot racing, boxing, and other sports. Women were not allowed to compete, but they had their own separate games.“The ancient ath
