Ⅳ.阅读理解
Recently, I was having a conversation with a friend of mine who had just come back from a trip to the United States. He was talking about his driving experience over there, and said, “Yes, it was fine. Once I got used to driving on the opposite side, it was no problem.” So why is it that people drive on different sides of the road in different parts of the world?
A few historical records show that the ancient world had left-moving traffic. Why was the left side?In the ancient world, people rode horses or carriages(马车). Well, who used horses the most: warriors who would always draw the sword(剑) with their right hands. This made it almost impossible for warriors to get on their horses from the right side. In Britain, in the 1700s, laws were passed to make traffic flow on the left side of the road, a rule that had to be followed. Britain took its left-side system to all its colonies(殖民地) in the world. As a result of this, countries in East Africa, the South Pacific andSoutheast Asia practice this system to the present day. But it is different in the United States. It is said that right-side driving in the United States was heavily influenced by Henry Ford. The car that his company produced could only be driven on the right side of the road.
In the modern world, driving on the right side became more convenient.
1. Where may the writer's friend come from?

2. What does the underlined word “warriors” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. People who make laws. B. People who sell horses.

3. When were the laws to make traffic flow on the left side of the road passed?
A. In 1700. B. In the 1700s. C. In 1770. D. In the 1900s.
4. Why do people in East African countries drive on the left?
A. Because it is only a matter of convenience.
B. Because a few historical records are like this.
C. Because countries in East Africa were British colonies.
D. Because people in countries in East Africa like driving on the left.
5. Which can be the best title for the passage?

V. (2023——2024·南通八下期末)短文首字母填空
The Chinese character Fu is a necessity in Spring Festival celebrations. Nowadays, Fu, as a cultural sign, e 1 people 's best wishes for the coming year. Yet, in the past, the character mainly meant luck and fortune.
The tradition(传统) of sticking the character Fu on w 2 and doors has been around for a long time. It's recorded that people already practised this tradition in the Song Dynasty. The character can be w 3 or printed. It can be stuck either normally or upside down, because inChinese, the“reversed Fu” and“Fu arrives” sound s 4 to each other, both being pronounced as“Fu dao le”.
There is a story about the origin of sticking the“reversed Fu”. Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty, once used the character fu as a secret signal to kill a family for insulting(侮辱) his wife, Empress Ma. To a 5 the disaster, the kind-hearted empress ordered every family in the capital to stick the character Fu in front of their own doors.
All the people followed the empress's order, but one family didn't know h 6 to read or write. They had stuck the character upside down. On the second day when the soldiers went to the streets, they found the character e 7 , including the upside down one. When the emperor heard this, he said a 8 to the soldiers, “I will kill the family who stuck the character differently.”
But Empress Ma 9 , “That family had known that you would come to visit them today, so they stuck the character upside down on purpose. Doesn't that have the same m 10 as ‘Fu comes’?” The emperor agreed with his wife and set the family free.
From that time on, people began to stick Fu upside down for the purpose of hoping for luck and remembering Empress Ma.
