The largest player-Shanghai Bashi Tourism Car Rental Center offers a wide variety of choices deluxe sedans,minivans, station wagons, coaches.Santana sedans are the big favorite.

Holidaymakers who are bored with baking beaches and overheated hotel rooms head for a big igloo. Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotel,the world's first igloo hotel.Built in a small town in Lapland,it has been attracting lots of visitors,but soon the fun will be over. In two weeks' time Bergqvist's ice creation (作品) will be nothing more than a pool of water." We don't see it as a big problem," he says. "We just look forward to replacing it." Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991 for an art exhibition.It was so successful that he designed the present one,which measures roughly 200 square meters.Six workmen spent more than eight weeks piling 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden base:when the snow froze,the base was removed. "The only wooden thing we have left in the igloo is the front door," he says. After their stay, all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success.With no windows, nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0℃, it may seem more like a survival test than a relaxing (轻松的) hotel break. "It's great fun,"Bergqvist explains,"as well as a good start in survival training." The popularity of the igloo is beyond doubt:it is now attracting tourists from all over the world.At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms."You can get a lot of people in," explains Bergqvist. "The beds are three meters wide by two meters long,and can fit at least four at one time." |

Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted.Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment (环境) friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem. One result is that millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of. However, today, more and more consumers are choosing "green" and demanding that the products they buy should be safe for the environment.Before they buy a product,they ask questions like these: "Will this shampoo damage the environment?" "Can this metal container be reused or can it only be used once?" A recent study showed that two out of five adults now consider the environmental safety of a product before they buy it. This means that companies must now change the way they make and sell their products to make sure that they are "green," that is,friendly to the environment. Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets,but now there are hundreds.Some supermarket products carry labels (标签) to show that the product is green. Some companies have made the manufacturing (生产) of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize it in their advertising. The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business. No longer will the public accept the old attitude of "Buy it, use it,throw it away, and forget it. "The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act. |
1. It becomes clear from the text that the driving force (动力) behind green products is _____. |
A. public caring for the environment B. companies,desire for bigger sales C. new ways of doing business D. rapid growth of supermarkets |
2. What would be the best title for the text? |
A. Business and People B. Business Goes Green C. Shopping Habits Are Changing D. Supermarkets and Green Products |
3. The underlined word "it" in the fourth paragraph refers to _____. |
A. a selling point B. the company name C. a great demand for health foods D. the manufacturing of green products |

If you ask people to name the one person who had the greatest effect on the English language, you will get answers like "Shakespeare," "Samuel Johnson," and "Webster," but none of these men had any effect at all compared to a man who didn't even speak English -William the Conqueror. Before 1066,in the land we now call Great Britain lived peoples belonging to two major language groups. In the west-central region lived the Welsh, who spoke a Celtic language,and in the north lived the Scots, whose language, though not the same as Welsh, was also Celtic.In the rest of the country lived the Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos, Saxons,and other Germanic and Nordic people,who spoke what we now call Anglo-Saxon (or Old English ), a Germanic language. If this state of affairs had lasted, English today would be close to German. But this state of affairs did not last. In 1066 the Normans led by William defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England.For about a century,French became the official language of England while Old English became the language of peasants. As a result,English words of politics and the law come from French rather than German. In some cases,modern English even shows a distinction (区别) between upper-class French and lower-class Anglo-Saxon in its words.We even have different words for some foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in the fields or at home ready to be cooked,which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants were doing the farming, while the upper-class Normans were doing most of the eating. When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more "foreign" than France because the German they see on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than French does.Few realize that the English language is actually Germanic in its beginning and that the French influences are all the result of one man's ambition. |
1. The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before 1066 were _____. |
A. Welsh and Scottish B. Nordic and Germanic C. Celtic and Old English D. Anglo-Saxon and Germanic |
2. Which of the following groups of words are,by inference,rooted in French? |
A. president,lawyer,beef B. president, bread,water C. bread,field,sheep D. folk,field,cow |
3. Why does France appear less foreign than Germany to Americans on their first visit to Europe? |
A. Most advertisements in France appear in English. B. They know little of the history of the English language. C. Many French words are similar to English ones. D. They know French better than German. |
4. What is the subject discussed in the text? |
A. The history of Great Britain. B. The similarity between English and French C. The rule of England by William the Conqueror. D. The French influences on the English language. |

Betty and Harold have been married for years. But one thing still puzzles (困扰) old Harold. How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa, talking, go out to a ballgame,come back three and a half hours later, and they're still sitting on the sofa? Talking? What in the world, Harold wonders, do they have to talk about? Betty shrugs.Talk? We're friends. Researching this matter called friendship, psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men.No matter what their age, their job, their sex, the results were completely clear:women have more friendships than men,and the difference in the content and the quality of those friendships is "marked and unmistakable." More than two-thirds of the single men Rubin interviewed could not name a best friend. Those who could were likely to name a woman.Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend,and almost always it was a woman.More married men than woean named their wife/husband as a best friend,most trusted person, or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress (感情危机). "Most women,"says Rubin," identified (认定) at least one,usually more,trusted friends to whom they could turn in a troubled moment,and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives." "In general," writes Rubin in her new book, "women's friendships with each other rest on shared emotions and support, but men's relationships are marked by shared activities." For the most part,Rubin says, interactions (交往) between men are emotionally controlled-a good fit with the social requirements of "manly behavior." "Even when a man is said to be a best friend," Rubin writes, "the two share little about their innermost feelings. Whereas a woman's closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasn't unusual to hear a man say he didn't know his friend's marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa." |
1. What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that _____. |
A. he is treated as an outsider rather than a husband B. women have so much to share C. women show little interest in ballgames D. he finds his wife difficult to talk to |
2. Rubin's study shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to turn to _____. |
A. a male friend B. a female friend C. her parents D. her husband |
3. According to the text,which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society? |
A. Ending his marriage without good reason. B. Spending too much time with his friends. C. Complaining about his marriage trouble. D. Going out to ballgames too often. |
4. Which of the following statements is best supported by the last paragraph? |
A. Men keep their innermost feelings to themselves. B. Women are more serious than men about marriage. C. Men often take sudden action to end their marriage. D. Women depend on others in making decisions. |
5. The research done by psychologist Rubin centers around _____. |
A. happy and successful marriages. B. friendships of men and women C. emotional problems in marriage. D. interactions between men and women. |
