Americans love to drive. They have drive-in movie theaters and drive-through restaurants. And they also drive for vacations. They often call it the “Great American Road Trip”: the whole family gets into a car or recreational vehicle (RV, 旅行房车), and goes on a summertime trip across the country.
American cars are always big, but RVs are the biggest. These are houses on wheels. RVs have kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. All across the country you can find RV parks. They are places to park your RV and spend the night. And, if you can’t find a good park, you can always make your home in a grocery store parking lot (杂货铺停车场).
When your little brother kicks you in the face all night in your small bed under the table, a big RV can seem very small. And when the dog barks (吠) and Mom plays her country music on the radio—your family is not at its best. What’s worse, RVs are always breaking down.
But RV travel can be a great time with the family, too. You can see the country in the comfort of your own “home”. You can spend every night in a different scenic (景色的) place, or just stay where you are. You don’t have to pay for hotels or restaurants, only gas. But best of all, you are free to go wherever you want whenever you want in your home-away-from-home.

Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn’t have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either.
Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It is bad to all living things in the world.
Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick (厚的) that it is like a quilt over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog (烟雾).

Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution.

During the Warring States Period (战国时期), there lived a man called Zou Ji. One day he put on beautiful clothes and a hat, and looked at himself. He asked his wife, “Between me and Mr. Xu, who is more handsome? ”
His wife said, “Of course, you are far more handsome!” Zou Ji could not believe what he heard, as Mr. Xu was widely known in this country for his handsome looks.
He then asked a concubine (妾), “What do you think? “His concubine said, “How can Mr. Xu be compared with you, sir? ”
Two days later, a guest came to visit, and Zou Ji asked him the same question. The guest also said, “Mr. Xu is not as handsome as you.”
A few days later, Zou Ji met Mr. Xu and compared himself with Mr. Xu secretly. Then he found Mr. Xu was better. But why did all the other people think he was more handsome?
From doubt to being sure, Zou Ji realized his wife preferred him, his concubine feared him and his guest needed his help. So with this thought, Zou Ji bravely went to meet the King of Qi and shared this with him. To his surprise, the King of Qi then added a new requirement: those who could speak to him about his mistakes face to face would receive a top prize; those who could write a letter of offering him some advice would receive a middle prize; those who openly criticized (批评) him would receive a small prize as well. Then the whole state followed it
根据短文内容判断正、误。正确的“A”、错误的“B”。
31. Zou Ji thought himself more handsome than Mr. Xu from the very beginning.
32. Three persons thought Zou Ji more handsome because of the same reason.
33. Zou Ji found that Mr. Xu was more handsome by comparing with Xu on his own.
34. Later, in the state of Qi, if a man pointed out Qi’s mistakes in public, he would get a top prize.
35. Zou Ji was good at thinking and gave his suggestions to help the King of Qi who would also like to accept them.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了齐国的邹忌与城北的徐公比外表,但是他从被询问人那得到的答案他是不相信的,最终他知道被询问的人存在立场问题。因此,询问他人得到的答案未必真实可靠。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“His wife said, ‘Of course, you are far more handsome!’ Zou Ji could not believe what he heard, as Mr. Xu was widely known in this country for his handsome looks.”可知,邹忌不敢相信他所听到的,因为徐先生在这个国家以其英俊的外表而闻名,所以“邹忌一开始就认为自己比徐先生帅。”的表述错误。故选B。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“But why did all the other people think he was more handsome?”和最后一段中“From doubt to being sure, Zou Ji realized his wife preferred him, his concubine feared him and his guest needed his help.”可知,从怀疑到肯定,邹忌意识到他的妻子更喜欢他,他的妃子害怕他,他的客人需要他的帮助。所以“因为同样的原因,三个人都认为邹忌更英俊。”的表述错误。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“A few days later, Zou Ji met Mr. Xu and compared himself with Mr. Xu secretly. Then he found Mr. Xu was better.”可知,邹忌见到了徐先生,并偷偷将自己与徐先生进行了比较。然后他发现徐先生好多了。所以“邹忌通过与徐本人的对比发现,徐先生更帅。”的表述正确。故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To his surprise, the King of Qi then added a new requirement: those who could speak to him about his mistakes face to face would receive a top prize; those who could write a letter of offering him some advice would receive a middle prize; those who openly criticized (批评) him would receive a small prize as well.”可知,出乎意料的是,齐王又增加了一个新的要求:谁能当面指出他的错误,谁就能获得最高奖赏;那些能够写信给他提供一些建议的人将获得一个中等奖;那些公开批评他的人也将获得一个小奖。所以“后来,在齐国,如果有人当众指出齐国的错误,他会得到一个最高奖赏。”的表达错误。故选B。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“So with this thought, Zou Ji bravely went to meet the King of Qi and shared this with him. To his surprise, the King of Qi then added a new requirement: those who could speak to him about his mistakes face to face would receive a top prize; those who could write a letter of offering him some advice would receive a middle prize; those who openly criticized (批评) him would receive a small prize as well.”可知,于是带着这个想法,邹忌勇敢地去见齐王,把这件事告诉了他。所以“邹忌善于思考,提出了自己的建议来帮助齐王,齐王也愿意接受这些建议。”的表述正确。故选A。

Americans love to drive. They have drive-in movie theaters and drive-through restaurants. And they also drive for vacations. They often call it the “Great American Road Trip”: the whole family gets into a car or recreational vehicle (RV, 旅行房车), and goes on a summertime trip across the country.
American cars are always big, but RVs are the biggest. These are houses on wheels. RVs have kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. All across the country you can find RV parks. They are places to park your RV and spend the night. And, if you can’t find a good park, you can always make your home in a grocery store parking lot (杂货铺停车场).
When your little brother kicks you in the face all night in your small bed under the table, a big RV can seem very small. And when the dog barks (吠) and Mom plays her country music on the radio—your family is not at its best. What’s worse, RVs are always breaking down.
But RV travel can be a great time with the family, too. You can see the country in the comfort of your own “home”. You can spend every night in a different scenic (景色的) place, or just stay where you are. You don’t have to pay for hotels or restaurants, only gas. But best of all, you are free to go wherever you want whenever you want in your home-away-from-home.
根据语篇内容,从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选择最佳答案。

A. bedrooms B. living rooms C. classrooms
24. What is one of the disadvantages of the RV?

25. When you travel by your RV, you can ________.
A. only stay in the park

Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn’t have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either.
Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It is bad to all living things in the world.
Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick (厚的) that it is like a quilt over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog (烟雾).
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away (倾倒) and they mustn’t blow dirty smoke into the air.
We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw them on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.
Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution.
根据语篇内容,从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选择最佳答案。

Built in the Yuan Dynasty (朝代), the temple has a history of around 7 centuries.
