（One day，Gulliver was caught in a storm and his ship hit a rock，then damaged.He was washed to the beach by wave.He walked and walked to find a city，but he was too tired and felt asleep.When he woke up，he found himself in Lilliput and a lot of tiny people were around him.） The Emperor spoke in a high voice but I could hear all the words clearly.His followers and all the ladies wore rich and beautiful clothes.The ground where they were standing looked like gold and silver cloth. His Majesty and I often spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word.I tried words from many languages-Dutch，French，Spanish，Italian and Latin.No one could understand my words，not even the cleverest of the Emperor's followers. After about two hours the Emperor left.His wife，children and their servants also went.There were strong guards around me.This was to stop the crowd of people from hurting me. An officer told the guards to hold six men who made me angry.These men were given to me and I had to choose their punishment.I put five of them in my pocket.Then I pretended（假装） to eat the sixth man. The poor man screamed terribly.The guards were worried when they saw my knife in my hand.Was I going to cut up the man？But I only cut the binding（捆绑物） round his hands.Then I put him on his feet and let him go.I lifted the other five men out of my pocket and put them gently on the ground too. The people and the soldiers were very pleased with my great kindness.They told the Emperor about it immediately.The Emperor ordered his men to make a bed for me and they had to join six hundred of their little beds together to make one bed for me. At the same time the Emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with.They were very worried.If my binding was cut，I might be dangerous.I was eating so much food that soon all the people would be very hungry.The farmers could not grow enough food to feed all of us. The wise men thought that they should kill me.But they would not be able to bury（埋葬） me.My dead body would smell.This might cause much illness all over the country.（Adapted from Gulliver's Travels）（1）To the tiny people，Gulliver was a （n） ____ at first.A.friendB.enemyC.relativeD.tourist（2）Why did the tiny people hurt Gulliver at first？ ____ A.They wanted to kill him and got his eyes.B.They were afraid of him because he was too big.C.They thought he would attack the Emperor and his people.D.They liked him so much and wanted to make fun of him.（3）The underlined word "them" in Paragraph 4 most probably refers to（指） " ____ ".A.the guardsB.the officersC.the six menD.the soldiers（4）Put the following statements in the correct order according to the story ____ .①The Emperor ordered his men to make a big bed for Gulliver.②They couldn't understand each other.③The Emperor spoke.④Gulliver didn't punish the six tiny people and let them go.⑤A crowd of people hurt Gulliver.A.③⑤②①④B.③②⑤④①C.⑤①④③②D.②⑤①③④（5）Why didn't the tiny people in Lilliput kill Gulliver finally？ ____ A.He was so strong that he would work for them.B.He was so big and they didn't have the weapon to kill him.C.The Emperor and his family liked him so much that they didn't agree.D.His dead body would smell and cause much illness in their country.
【题文】 What is art? That's an easy question to answer. Art is a painting, a drawing or a sculpture. Now there are new items to add to the list. Art is a dead shark in a glass case. Art is an unmade bed. Art is a video of a group of people standing completely still for sixty minutes. A new group of young artists began to produce work that challenged the accepted idea of what art is and the role the artist should play in society. This group came to be known as the YBAs—the Young British Artists. The art of the YBAs does not just stick to painting and sculpture. It uses all kinds of different materials to express the feeling of the artist. Damien Hirst is the most famous of the YBAs. The shark in the box is his work and is meant to express his own fear of dying. The shark stands for death. Right now, it is harmless. But eventually it will come for you. There is nothing to be done about it. Traditionally, artists have a message. They use their skills to lead us to enlightenment (启迪). The message of the YBAs is that they cannot do this. They are just as mixed up and confused as everybody else. A journalist once asked Damien Hirst what his next idea was for an artwork. “I don't know what I'm going to do next. I never know what I'm going to do next,” he replied. Another YBA, Tracy Emin recently produced a work called “Bed”. This is just her own bed with the sheets disarranged and dirty. And the message? “Look at me—I'm a mess.” Some artists work with the public in producing their work. Gillian Wearing filmed a group of people dressed as policemen trying to keep still for 60 minutes while standing on top of a table. At the end of that time, the table falls apart and everyone falls to the floor. You can try to be a good citizen and a respectable member of the community. But don't try too hard or the pressure will be too much. Art mirrors the state of society. In the work of the YBAs we can see a society on the threshold (开端) of the future—a bit worried, a bit excited and wondering what is going to happen next. The YBAs can't guide us, but they can make the journey more interesting.【小题1】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．The shark. B．Death. C．Damien's artwork. D．Damien's fear of dying. 【小题2】What can be inferred from Tracy's work “Bed”？ A．She needs to be taken care of. B．She sees the world as a dirty one. C．She compares herself to the bed. D．She hopes for better living conditions. 【小题3】Which of the following refers to a person who tries too hard in Gillian's work? A．The table. B．The floor. C．60 minutes. D．The people dressed as policemen. 【小题4】What is the main purpose of the text? A．To explain what the work of the YBAs is like. B．To show how the YBAs form ideas for their work. C．To describe the YBAs as artists full of imagination. D．To show the YBAs have made a great difference in art.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.
