At the same time, there is no question that social class is an important factor in how children are raised and the kind of adults that children become. Regarding social c
14、lass, sociologists have found that parents socialize their children into the behaviors and norms of their work worlds. Members of the working class are closely supervised and are expected to follow explicit rules at their jobs. If they do not follow the precise rules and do as they are told, they wi
15、ll not keep their jobs. Their experience influences how they deal with their children. As a result, their concern is less with their children s motivations and more with their children s outward conformity. Thus they are more apt to use physical punishment in managing their children. On the other ha
16、nd, middle-class parents, who are expected to take more initiative on the job, are more concerned that their children develop curiosity, self-expression, and self-control. They are also more likely to withdraw privileges or affection than to use physical punishment.31 The word “explicit“ means_.（A）v
17、ague（B） difficult（C） confusing（D）clearly defined32 According to this passage, working-class parents are more likely than middle-class parents to_.（A）use physical punishment for discipline（B） have children who finish college（C） have children who are out of control（D）show less love to their children33

19、etween children of working class and the ones of middle class（D）the relation between working class and middle class in their working places35 Which sentence is not true?（A）The outcomes of social class is evitable.（B） The social class decide how children are raised.（C） Sociologists have found that pa
20、rents socialize their children into the behaviors and norms of their work worlds.（D）Their experience influences how they deal with their children.35 Languages are remarkably complex and wonderfully complicated organs of culture. They contain the quickest and the most efficient means of communicating
21、 within their respective culture. To learn a foreign language is to learn another culture. In the words of a poet and philosopher, “As many languages as one speaks, so many lives one lives. “ A culture and its language are as necessary as brain and body: while one is a part of the other, neither can
22、 function without the other. In learning a foreign language, the best beginning would be starting with the non-language elements of the language: its gestures, its body language, etc. Eye contact is extremely important in English. Direct eye contact leads to understanding, or, as the English saying
23、goes, seeing eye-to-eye. We can never see eye-to-eye with a native speaker of English until we have learned to look directly into his eyes.36 The best title for this passage is_.（A）Organs of Culture（B） Brain and Body（C） Looking into His Eyes（D）Language and Culture37 According to this passage, the be
24、st way to learn a foreign language is_.（A）to read the works of poets and philosophers（B） to find a native speaker and look directly into his eyes（C） to begin by learning its body language（D）to visit a country where you can study38 According to this passage, gestures are_.（A）spoken words（B） a non-lan
25、guage element（C） pictures in a language（D）written language39 “As many languages as one speaks, so many lives.“ means_.（A）if one learns many foreign languages, one will have a better understanding of his own language（B） life is richer and more interesting if one knows several languages（C） no matter h
26、ow many languages one knows, one can never know more than one s own culture（D）if a person speaks only one language, he will live a very happy life40 Which of the following doesn t share the same meaning with the others?（A）Signs.（B） Gestures.（C） Efficient.（D）Body language.40 To find out what the weat
27、her is going to be, most people go straight to the radio, television or newspaper to get an expert weather forecast. But if you know what to look for, you can use your own senses to make weather predictions.There are many signs which can help you. For example, in fair weather the air pressure is gen
28、erally high. The air is still and often full of dust. Faraway objects may look hazy. But when a storm is brewing, the pressure drops and you are often able to see things more clearly. Sailors took note of this long ago and came up with a saying “The farther the sight, the nearer the rain. “Your sens
29、e of smell can also help you detect weather changes. Just before it rains, odors(气味 )become stronger. This is because odors are repressed in a fair, high-pressure center. When a bad weather low moves in, air pressure lessens and odors are released.You can also hear an approaching storm. Sounds bounc
30、e off heavy storm clouds and return to earth with increased force. An old saying describes it this way, “Sounds traveling far and wide, a storm day will betide(降临).“And don t scoff if your grandmother says she can feel a storm coming. It is commonly known that many people feel pains in their bones w
31、hen the humidity rises, the pressure drops, and bad weather is on the way.41 The topic of this passage could be_.（A）Expert Weather Forecast（B） Seeing Approaching Storms（C） Old Sayings about Weather（D）Using the Senses to Detect Weather Changes42 According to the passage, as a storm approaches, farawa
32、y objects look_.（A）hazy because of dust in the air（B） clearer because air pressure is high（C） clearer because air pressure is dropping（D）distorted because of storm clouds43 In the last paragraph, the writer implies that_.（A）the idea of feeling a coming storm is foolish（B） older people know a lot abo
33、ut weather（C） it is possible, but unlikely, that people feel aches when a storm is coming（D）it is definitely true that some people can feel coming weather changes44 The underlined word “repressed“ in Paragraph 3 is close to_.（A）crush（B） restrict（C） lower（D）struggle45 How many senses can help you det
34、ect weather change in the article?（A）Three.（B） More than three.（C） Only one.（D）Two.45 When I was learning calligraphy(书法), my teacher told me a story.A calligrapher taught handwriting. One of his students who often practiced handwriting with old sheets of newspaper complained that he made very littl
35、e progress though he had learned it with the calligrapher for a long time. His teacher said to him, “Try to use the best paper. Maybe youll write better. “The student did as he was told. It really worked. He made headway not long afterwards and felt curious. He asked his teacher about the reason. Th
36、e calligrapher answered, “When you used old newspaper to practice handwriting, you would think you were writing a draft. It didn t matter if you wrote badly as old newspaper was plenty in supply. In that case you wouldn t pay much attention to it. Now you use the best paper and youll treasure it. Ea
37、ch time you write you feel strongly about the rarity of chances and youll devote to it with all your heart and soul: youll do the handwriting much more attentively than practicing. Of course you ve made rapid progress. “Indeed, we spend our ordinary days just as they are worthless “old newspaper“. W
38、e don t care if we scrawl and waste it, thinking that it will come endlesslythe “ old newspaper“ is inexhaustible. In such a mood we may each day pass by opportunities but fail to catch any of them.Life is not a military exercise but an actual war in which real weapons are used. In everyday life the
39、re s no chance for us to draft. That s because what we call “draft“ actually is the answer sheet we write that cannot be changed.Every day of our life is something new. Let us take every day as a sheet of the best paper.46 The calligrapher in the story told the student to write on the best paper bec
40、ause he thought_.（A）the student would practice more carefully on the best paper（B） it was comfortable to write on the best paper（C） the student had enough money to buy the best paper（D）the student could write more on the best paper47 The student didnt make much progress at first because_.（A）he didnt

44、read the directions carefully before dialing the number. In many foreign countries, as in China, a special number is assigned to each region of the country, which is called an “area code“. If you know the area code and the phone number, it is usually easier and cheaper to dial the number yourself. I
45、n some foreign countries, such as in UK and the USA, you can make reverse charge or collect calls with the help of an operator, and if the person you are calling accepts your call, he will pay for the call.Also phone companies in both the UK and the USA offer a credit card service, commonly called a
46、 phone card, to their customers. You get a card with an account number and a PIN number(personal identification number), which you can use for any phone. You pay for your calls after you have made them when the bill is sent to your home.51 In many countries, the phone number for each region has a_,5
