     Sichuan (China Daily)-The beginning of 2007 will see another mass of graduates fresh from the campus
hunting for jobs.
     Sichuan University has done something special to help its graduates. One morning last month, a lady
stopped her Porsche (保時(shí)捷豪華跑車) in front of the students' canteen (食堂). She stepped out of her
expensive car and began to polish shoes for the students who were passing by. Later it was discovered that
she was a special lecturer who had been invited to talk to students on career development.
     Li Hui, 42, started from scratch (白手起家) in 1998 and has expanded her shoe-polishing service from
a single one-person stand on a street to a chain of 2,000 stands that operate in supermarkets, hotels and office
buildings.
     Li Hui said, "Apart from the existing and advertised job opportunities, there are plenty of other ways that
people can try to make money. There is nothing ignoble if you are doing an off-line business on your own,
such as car washing, house cleaning, shoe polishing, etc."
     It is to be hoped that such a successful grassroots woman as Li Hui will give the coming rush of job
hunters an insight into the job market in another way.
1. According to the passage, Li Hui is a _____.
[     ]
A. canteen manager
B. university teacher
C. businesswoman
D. taxi driver
2. Why did Li Hui polish shoes for the students? 
[     ]
A. To earn money from them.
B. To show the students how to polish shoes.
C. To set an example to job-hunting graduates.
D. To show that shoe polishing is quite an easy job.
3. The students can learn from what Li Hui said that _____.
[     ]
A. no job is hard if you have a will to do it
B. women can be successful in all careers as men
C. everyone can be rich and famous through hard work
D. there are plenty of opportunities to succeed for everyone
4. What would be the best title for the news report?
[     ]
A. A Successful Woman
B. A Rich Shoe-Polisher
C. Off-Line Jobs Help Make More Money
D. Self-Employment-A New Way Out for Job Hunters

　　“Privacy” is translated as“yin si”in Chinese. Traditionally, in the Chinese mind,“yin si”is associated with that which is closed or unfair. If someone is said to have“yin si”, meddlers (好事者) will be attracted to pry(打探)into his or her affairs. So people always state that they don't have“yin si”.

　　On the contrary, Americans often declare their intention to protect their privacy. Their understanding of privacy is that others have no right to pry into things which belong to themselves alone and have nothing to do with others. One who is too curious and who spreads rumors is said to violate the right to privacy.

　　In the evening, Sonia and I went to a bar for dinner. In China, when people mention bars, something bad usually comes to mind. But here, the bar was a quiet and tastefully laid out place. People spoke quite softly, afraid of interrupting their neighbors, and sat face to face as they drank, sometimes three or five persons sitting together.

　　This sort of atmosphere was totally different from my preconception(傳統(tǒng)觀念), so I wanted to take a picture. Sonia stopped me:“Don't you see these people are pouring out their hearts? Maybe they are colleagues, friends, secret lovers. They came here looking for a peaceful place free from interruption by others. They wouldn't want to leave any trace of their having come here. So taking their pictures would be a serious violation of their right to privacy.”

　　Is there privacy between husband and wife? One of Sonia's friends married a talented Chinese man, but recently she became so angry that she wanted a divorce(離婚). The reason was that her husband had opened one of her letters and looked through her purse. The husband didn't realize that this is not tolerated in the U.S. He thought that being a couple was like being one person; why couldn't he see the letter or the contents of the purse? Truly, everyone, even those living as a couple, needs room--not only in three-dimensional(三維) space, but in the heart.

1．What is the main idea of the text?

[　　]

A．The understanding of“privacy”is different in China and America.

B．There is privacy between husband and wife in America.

C．Everyone has the right to privacy.

D．Everyone in every country needs room for himself.

2．Sonia stopped me when I wanted to take a picture in the bar because _____.

[　　]

A．taking pictures in a bar was not allowed in America

B．taking pictures in a bar would interrupt the neighbors

C．people who came here are colleagues，friends or secret lovers

D．taking pictures in a bar would violate other people's right to privacy

3．One of Sonia's friends wanted a divorce because _____.

[　　]

A．she thought her husband was not clever enough

B．her husband always opened her letters

C．her husband always looked through her purse

D．her husband didn't respect her right to privacy

4．Which of the following statements is NOT the Americans' understanding of privacy?

[　　]

A．Privacy is connected with something that is unfair and bad.

B．Other people have no right to pry into his or her affairs.

C．There is privacy even between couples.

D．The right to privacy shouldn't be violated by others.

5．According to this text, we can infer that in America we can do all the following except _____.

[　　]

A．declaring that we have privacy

B．going to a bar with friends

C．a(chǎn)sking your friends about their marriage

D．taking pictures in a national park

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
When I worked in Swaziland, one day we went to an orphanage. There we found a beautiful little girl named Tanzile. I gave her a sweet and she said something back to me in Si-swati, which the nurse next to me translated, “She wants another one — to give to her little sister.” I said “of course”. When we were going to leave, we passed by Tanzile’s house to say goodbye. To our surprise she seemed to be holding on to that extra sweet I had given her. I remember saying to the nurse “this little darling is clever — she has taken two for herself.”
But the nurse told us, “Tanzile is 7 now. Two years ago her mum and dad both died of AIDS. She was separated from her sister who was three at the time. Tanzile has not laid eyes on her since. But from then on whenever Tanzile receives anything from anyone, including food — she refuses to accept it, unless they give her two.” In fact, in the little mud hut where she lives, we find a pile of old things which she has been collecting to give to her sister one day.
People sometimes look at faces of African children and think that they are somehow different from our kids — that somehow they don’t feel pain or love. But that is not true. Their pain is deep. And so is their love. I can still remember the nurse trying to convince her that “if someone gives you food, you must accept it — even if it is only one piece and not two — for your own health.” And it was so hard for us to keep the tears from our eyes as she shook her head. Her hope and her love was all that she had. It mattered more than anything else. When I returned home that day, I was shocked to find that this was not an isolated story but others in the hospital knew of orphans just like Tanzile — waiting with a little pile of things in their hut, for their lovers who they haven’t seen so long.
I think of that old song — “when we’re hungry, love will keep us alive.”
56． From the passage we can learn Tanzile__________.
A. is very clever        B. knows her sister has died
C. has stored a lot for her sister       D. doesn’t like sweets
57． How old was her sister when the author met with Tanzile?
A. Three years old.    B. Four years old.
C. Five years old.     D. Six years old.
58． What has the author learned from her experience in Africa?
A. Love is more important in life than anything else.
B. African children are different in a way.
C. African children should be treated fairly.
D. We should express our love in time.
59． The best title for the passage would be __________
A. Give every child two sweets      B. Tanzile’s love for her sister
C. One for my sister               D. Change your attitude to African children
