Don’t blame yourself; blame the clock in your brain. Two decades of research ____12____ that your bodies are pushing you to stay up at night and sleep into the morning.

Most London taxi drivers have their own taxis.” “It’s a nice job most of time. You meet a lot of people. I always work at night, because there is too much traffic during the day. I live twenty miles outside London and I go to work at 5:30 in the afternoon.” “I usually go home between 2 and 3 in the morning.” “Some very strange things happened late at night. The other day I was taking a woman home from a party. She had her little dog with her. When we got to her house, she found that she had lost her key. So I waited in the car with the dog while she climbed in through the windows.” “I waited and waited. After half an hour of ringing the bell I decided to find out what was going on. I tied the dog to a tree and started to climb in through the window. The next thing I knew was that the police came. They thought I was a thief. Luckily the woman came downstairs. She must have gone to sleep and forgotten about me and the dog!" 36. The driver always worked at night because it was easier to ________. A. drive on the road B. make money C. climb in through the window D. meet a lot of people 37. The woman climbed in through the window because ________.

The driver climbed in through the window to ________. A. get money from the woman B. return the dog to the woman C. see what was happening in the house D. phone the police (B) With the world becoming smaller, many young adults make the decision to study in foreign universities. It is an exciting, challenging experience to live in a foreign country. Anyone who can study abroad is fortunate; but of course, it is not easy to make the transition from one culture to another. One faces many difficulties. The student who studies in a foreign country leaves behind a familiar, loving and comfortable environment. Back home, she has her family, friends and acquaintances. She knows the language, politics, money, food, social customs, and so forth. She knows all the aspects of her native culture, such as body language, bargaining practises, and efforts to minimize waste through recycling, etc. In short, she knows “the system” in her native country. The day she leaves all this behind and suddenly finds herself in a place where everyone and everything is strange, perhaps confusing. All this strangeness is a major surprise to a person’s confidence. This sudden change often leads to a reaction called culture shock. Foreigners experience varying degrees of culture shock. The symptoms vary from being ill-at-ease to being seriously depressed. Feeling homesick, unhappy and very sensitive are other signs of culture shock. It is easy to understand that the endless frustrations of the early days in a new country would produce dissatisfaction, discomfort, and perhaps even hostility. However, being negative will never get rid of the feeling of frustrations. The mature person understands that a positive attitude, determination and flexibility are important in making the transition successful. 40. “The system” in the second paragraph includes the following except ________. A. social customs B. bargaining C. politics D. foreign culture 41. From the passage we can know that ________. A. it is fortunate as well as challenging to study abroad B. culture shock affects all foreigners in the same way C. all foreigners can feel a sense of hostility due to culture shock D. the mature person with determination will not suffer from culture shock 42. The main idea of the passage is that ________. A. people know “the system” very well in their native country B. the mature person with a positive attitude will overcome culture shock C. culture shock is a pleasant experience if one goes abroad D. many international students are affected by culture shock in different degrees (C) A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington D. C. I saw many of our nation’s treasures, and I also saw a lot of unfortunate people like beggars and homeless folks in the streets. Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Centre, I heard a voice say, “Can you help me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended. In a natural reaction, I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it in her hand. I didn’t even look at her. I was annoyed at being bothered by a beggar. But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money. I just need help finding the post office.” Immediately, I realized what I had done. I acted with prejudice — I judged another person simply for what I thought she was. The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in America at the age of 15. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, cashier, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other jobs, and finally I became a network engineer. In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice. I remember a time, at age17— I was a busboy, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well at school, he would end up like me. But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the street of Washington D. C. cured me of my blindness. She reminded me to always keep my eyes and heart open. 43. Why did the blind woman extend her hand? A. She was begging for money. B. She was finding her way home. C. She wanted to ask for help. D. She was pretending to be a beggar. 44. What could be “my” feeling at the response of the woman? A. annoyed B. ashamed C. happy D. sympathetic 45. What can we learn from the passage? A. We should study hard in order to live a middle-class lifestyle. B. We should help blind people when they extend their hand. C. We should not look down upon beggars. D. We should let go of prejudice whenever and wherever we are. (D) It’s strange how a single moment can shift everything you think you know. One winter morning, all it took was a little stubbornness (固执) and a lot of snow for me to learn a lesson I’d remember for years, This is the story of how I wrecked my dad’s car. It was early January, and I was a senior in high school. It was a regular Tuesday morning, and like every other day, I grabbed my jacket, picked up the keys from the counter, and was about to head out when my dad stopped me. “Whoa, there,” he said, glancing at the snow piling up outside. “The roads are covered in snow. You’re taking the bus today.” I argued, pointing out that school was about to start, and I didn’t want to wait for the bus. My dad, known for his stubbornness, wouldn’t give in. After a few heated words, he sighed and handed me the keys. “Fine, but be careful,” he said. I slid into the car, a bit triumphant. The roads looked fine, I thought, barely an inch of snow, I started the car and pulled out of the driveway, feeling a surge of independence. But as I made my way through the neighborhood, the slippery roads tested my confidence. One sharp turn later, and I was in trouble — the car started to skid. I tried to slow down, but it was too late. The car slid right into a snowbank. I spent a long frustrating minute trying to get it out. pressing down on the engine, trying every trick I knew. Eventually, I realized I was going to have to call my dad. When he arrived, his face was a mix of anger and disappointment. We pulled the car out with some help, but the damage was done. Now, every time I’m tempted to ignore someone’s advice, I think back to that day. Sometimes it’s smarter to listen than to prove a point. That day left me a little poorer and a lot wiser. 46. What did the writer’s father suggest he do due to the snowy conditions? A. Staying home. B. Walking to school. C. Going to school by bus. D. Drive slowly on the road. 47. What does the word “triumphant” (paragraph 5) most likely mean? A. Amused. B. Proud. C. Embarrassed. D. Regretful. 48. What happened to the car when the writer tried to make a sharp turn? A. It made the turn safely. B. It slid off the road and hit another car. C. It came to a complete stop in the road. D. It started to slip and crashed into a snowbank. 49. What lesson did the writer learn from the experience? A. It’s better to think twice before saying no to others’ advice. B. It’s always best to rely on oneself in challenging situations. C. Driving in snowy conditions ought to be legally prohibited. D. Arguing with parents often leads to misunderstandings. VI.
