In China, the National Holiday is a big festival and it is to celebrate the founding of the People's Republic of China by Mao Zedong in 1949.Besides from the Spring Festival, the National Holiday is the only other week-long public break from school and work.
As one of the only opportunities  for workers to go home, visit their families or to travel around the country, all hotels, tourist attractions, trains, buses and airplanes around the country are completely packed with holidaying Chinese people.
Are you sorry for not traveling during the National Day ? If you stay at home at that time, I think you are very lucky. Why? Because there are too many people everywhere. In many places of interest in China, it’s too crowded to do anything.
Look at the picture. It was too crowded on the Great Wall on October 1st, 2012. You even couldn’t take photos for you or your friends. All that we could see were people. It was reported that there were about twenty people per meter on the Great Wall. My friends told me they could see nothing but many people on the Great Wall. “We couldn’t walk if the people in front of us didn’t walk,” he said. He showed us a photo on the Great Wall. In the photo, we hardly found him out, there were too many people.
So some people give the advice that we should not have the gold week any more. But other people say no about this advice. What’s your idea of it? Are you sorry now for not traveling during the gold week? I love staying at home more than traveling next National Day.

試題分析:這篇短文中作者主要講述了國慶長假期間各旅游景點(diǎn)人滿為患的現(xiàn)狀,并且作者表達(dá)了自己的觀點(diǎn),與其出去看“人!;不如呆在家里好好休息。
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第三段第二句 If you stay at home at that time, I think you are very lucky. 可知作者認(rèn)為如果沒有出去旅游而是呆在家里是幸運(yùn)的;故選C。
小題2:推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第一段Besides from the Spring Festival, the National Holiday is the only other week-long public break from school and work.可知,除了春節(jié)之外,國慶節(jié)是另一個(gè)唯一的一周之久的長假;由此可推知,春節(jié)的假期應(yīng)該在一到兩周之間,即C項(xiàng)比較吻合;故選C。
小題3:推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文中In the photo, we hardly found him out, there were too many people.
可知要想從照片中找出好友是不容易的,A錯(cuò)誤;作者好友的話“We couldn’t walk if the people in front of us didn’t walk,” 可表明B項(xiàng)的說法錯(cuò)誤; It was reported that there were about twenty people per meter on the Great Wall.據(jù)報(bào)道在長城上每米距離的人數(shù)在20左右而不是30,C項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤;第四段第四句話All that we could see were people. 可知D項(xiàng)的描述是正確的;故選D。
小題4:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。短文內(nèi)容主要就是描述了國慶長假期間長城等旅游景點(diǎn)人滿為患的情況,所以本文最可能的出處就是中國旅游網(wǎng)站,而不是中國公交、電影123或故事書屋等網(wǎng)站;故選C。

America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real,yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two,perhaps a few letters for a while— then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance,even years later,they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand,because friendships between us develop more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings,extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes,share their holidays,and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives,they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes,we,as hosts,will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans,however,express their welcome usually at homes,but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes,the welcome will be full,warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For the Americans,it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants,except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
小題1:Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?  
A.Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
B.Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.  
C.Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.  
D.Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
小題2: From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend,we will probably be ______.
A.warmly welcomed at the airport
B.offered a ride to his home
C.treated hospitably at his home
D.treated to dinner in a restaurant
小題3:The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.
A.strict with time   B.willing to spend time  
C.careful with timeD.serious with time
小題4:A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.
A.Friendships between Chinese
B.Friendships between Americans  
C.Americans’hospitality
D.Americans’and Chinese’s views of friendships

Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. "The door to his room is always shut." Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. "She used to sit in my arms on the sofa and talk with me," said Mark. "Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which."
Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what's on their minds. "In fact, parents are first on the list." said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. "This completely changes during the teen years." Riera explained. "They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last."
Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.
小題1:"The door to his room is always shut" suggests that the son_______.
A.is always busy with his studies
B.doesn't want to be disturbed
C.keeps himself away from his parents
D.begins to dislike his parents
小題2:What troubles Tina and Mark most is that _______.
A.their daughter isn't as lovely as before
B.they can't read their daughter's mind exactly
C.they don't know what to say to their daughter
D.their daughter talks with them only when she needs help
小題3:which of the following best explains "the wall of silence" in the last paragraph?
A.Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.
B.Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.
C.Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.
D.Teenagers talk little about their own lives.
小題4:What can be learned from the passage?
A.Parents are unhappy with their growing children.
B.Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.
C.Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.
D.Parents should try to understand their teenagers.
