It has a long and interesting history. The earliest ice cream was eaten in China many centuries ago. People at that time would put orange juice on the ice or get something cool to drink. Later, this idea traveled to Italy. Around 1660, it was popular to serve ice cream in coffee shops in Paris. Most of the shops were owned by Italians. Among them, the first successful one belonged to a man named Francesco Procopio. Ice cream was brought to America in the early 1700s, and it quickly became the favorite of Americans. President George Washington had ice cream pots(罐) and machines in his kitchen. Dolly Madison, the wife of President Madison, was the first one to serve it in the White House. She made her guests very happy when she served such desserts. Before ice cream was sold in stores, it was made and kept at a very low temperature first. It took a lot of work to mix cream, eggs, fruit and ice. Nancy Johnson, an American woman who was good at machines, invented the ice cream freezer in 1846. Five years later, Jacob Fussell opened the first ice cream factory in Baltimore, Maryland. His business quickly came to other states. Today in the United States, ice cream is not only a kind of food, but also a way of life. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( )21. The earliest ice cream was the ice with on or something cool to drink.

As for it, everyone is different. I' ll share some of my experience. I once took a school year English course in Wuhan University, but I mostly learned English on my own. One thing I can tell you is that, once you' ve started learning, you should try to think in English as much as you can. If you see something when you' re riding your bike or walking down the street, just think about“How would I say them in English?” At first, it might be with simple words or phrases, but later you should think about longer phrases and sentences. Now I'm in America, and for most of the time, I would think in English and speak it directly. It's amazing how much this helps. For several years after I started learning, I was often afraid of talking with others in English because I didn't want to make mistakes. Finally I got it over. And while traveling in America, I'd try to hang out with friends who couldn't speak Chinese, so that I'd have no choice but to speak English. And I also decided that if I said something stupid and other people laughed at me, then so be it. After that, my English started improving much more quickly. Besides, it may be a good idea to ask your American friends to look at the way you' re writing, and give you some suggestions for improvement. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( )26.

A. stick to it B. depend on it C. overcome it D. understand it ( )29. To the writer's surprise, his English improved quickly . A. in the university B. in the middle school C. in China D. in America ( )30. The best title for this passage should be . A. The Importance of English B. My English Learning Experience C. My University Life D. My American Friends C Then Alice saw a small glass table. There was a little golden key on it. She picked it up and put it in all the locks on the doors but it didn’ t open any of them. She moved a curtain on one of the walls and discovered another door, a very small one. She put the key in the lock. It was exactly the right size! She opened the door and looked through it. At the end of a low passage she saw a beautiful garden. It was full of brightly coloured flowers and fountains. “Oh, how beautiful! ” she said. “I'd love to go there but I'm too big to get through the door.” She walked back to the table. There was a bottle on it now. “I'm sure that bottle wasn't there before, ” she said, a little confused. She put down the key and picked up the bottle. She read the words“DRINK ME” on it. Alice wasn't a stupid girl. She didn't drink it immediately. First she looked at the bottle carefully. There wasn't a label on it that said“POISON”. So she put the bottle to her lips and drank. “Mmm, it's nice,” she said. It tasted like cherry tart, pineapple, roast turkey and toast — all the things that she liked to eat — so she drank some more. And some more. Soon the bottle was empty. “What a curious feeling,” she said. “I'm getting smaller and smaller.” It was true! She was now as small as her cat Dinah. “Good! I can go through the door into the garden,” she said. But, poor Alice! When she got to the door, she didn't have the key! It was on the table. She couldn't reach it because she was too small now. She sat down and cried. After a while she said, “Alice! Stop crying! Crying doesn't help! Dry your tears immediately!” When she looked at the table again, she saw a small glass box under it. She picked it up and opened it. There was a small cake inside. It had the words“EAT ME” on it. She put a small piece of it in her mouth. “If I grow bigger I can reach the key,” she thought. “And if I grow smaller I can go under the door.” But nothing happened so she finished it. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( )31.

However, in Greece and Turkey, it means“on”. To point a finger at someone is okay in Canada, but it's rude in China and Japan. For business people, differences like those can cause serious misunderstanding. 37 Here are a few things they' ve learned. Greeting clients correctly is important in the business world. 38 North American men and women often shake hands when they meet. In Japan, people often bow. 39 It's often necessary to invite a client to lunch or dinner. However, customs about eating are also different from culture to culture. Some people don't eat meat, and others don't drink alcohol. In the West, people eat with knives and forks; in the east, they eat with chopsticks. In some cultures, it’ s okay to discuss business while eating. In other cultures, talking about business during a meal is rude. 40 In most countries, it's the custom to take a small gift. In some countries, it's rude to give white flowers or a watch or a clock or a clock.Another difficulty is how much money should be spent on a gift. A. Sometimes business people visit the homes of their clients(客户). B. However, customs about greeting people are different in different cultures. C.

Let's have a look at what we laugh at in 56 . To us British people, 57 and important people often cause laughter. It's not just politicians(政客) who make us laugh, but anyone whose job is to tell other people what to do and who takes 58 too seriously. We laugh at the power, but also, pitifully, at anyone who is treated 59 . We know they cannot win, but if they do win sometimes, it's even 60 . Our clowns(小丑) are often silly people doing silly things, while in America, they are often clever people doing clever things — and 61 at last. The fact that we laugh when other people might feel 62 is one of the strangest things to learn about British humor. We do have a strong sense of irony(反讽). After some terrible experience, we might say, “Not very 63 .” And we might say in the middle of a typhoon, “It's a bit windy today.” Or“There is a tiny problem,” when something has gone 64 wrong. We don't like to express strong feelings, but just“keep calm and carry on”. Another thing that can make it difficult to 65 British humor is that we don't always laugh or even smile when we say something funny. We often keep a straight face or use an unsmiling expression when we' re making a joke. Do you think the British sense of humor is special? 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 第二节 阅读短文，根据语篇要求填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。 Last night one of my Chinese friends took me to a concert of Chinese folk music.66. piece which was played on the erhu especially moved me.

The erhu sounded like someone crying, and I almost cried along with it 68. I listened. Later I looked up the history 69.
