Only two major American film forms—the slapstick comedy and the western—withstood the effects of foreign influences throughout the 1920's, when the entire film industry, was dominated by the European moviemakers. These forms were already immensely popular all over the world (there was no need to make them more "artistic" by following the latest European fashions), and they were at once too successful and too lowly to warrant such improvements-they were considered "just entertainment." They bore no weighty messages, inspired no cults and no schools of esthetics. But they delighted audiences, both here and abroad, because they were so purely and simply America. Unconsciously, they represented all that was best in America without the slightest trace of intention, of sermonizing. The ingenuity and eternal optimism of the cornices and the cowboys' spirit of adventure as they rode the plains in search of the next frontier were enough to carry the message of the American dream to tired Europeans, to cramped city dwellers, to small boys, to people everywhere.

What did these films promise to European audiences disillusioned and exhausted by World War I? The humble always triumphed over their powerful adversaries, the weak outwitted the strong and always implied was a future of riches, freedom, and happiness for all. The world of the westerns was a simple place for men with the pioneer virtues of honesty, courage, a taste for adventure, and a quick trigger ginger; the world of the comics was a crazy place, but with a little faith and a little luck, it could be a wonderful place.

These forms were not "improved" because they were______.

A.too successful to need improvement

B.too lowly to warrant improvement

C.too insane to improve artistically

D.both A and B

When 27 years of age, Burns first attracted literary attention, and in the same moment spr
ang to the first place in Scottish letters. In despair over his poverty and personal habits, he resolved to emigrate to Jamaica, and gathered a few of his early poems, hoping to sell them for enough to pay the expenses of his journey. The result was the famous Kilmarnock Edition of the Poetical Works of Robert Burns, published in 1786, for which he was offered 20 pounds. It is said that he even; bought his ticket, and on the night before the ship sailed wrote his Farewell to Scotland, which he intended to his last song on Scottish soil.

In the morning he changed his mind, led partly by the dim foreshadowing of the result of his literary adventure for the little book caught all Scotland by storm. Not only scholars, literary men, but even cowboys and maid servants, eagerly spent their hard earned shillings for the new book. Instead of going to America, the young poet hurried to Edinburgh to arrange for another edition of his work. His journey was a constant success, and in the capital he was welcomed and feasted by the best of Scottish society. This unexpected triumph lasted only one winter. Burns' extreme fondness for a fast life shocked his cultured entertainers, and when he returned to Edinburgh next winter, he received scant attention. He left the capital and went back in disappointment to the soil, where he was more at home.

Burns had the first edition of his poems published because______.

A.he could not bear the temptation of being famous

B.he thought that it would bring him a large sum of money

C.he felt like going to travel for pleasure

D.he needed money to go to another country

Mr. Brown was at the theatre. He had got his ticket at the moment, so he had not been ahle
to choose his seat. He now found that he was in the middle of a group of American la- dies, some of them middle-aged and some of them quite old. They clearly all knew each other well, as before the curtain went up on the play they had come to see, they all talked and joked a lot together.

The lady sitting on Mr. Brown's left, who was about sixty years old, seemed to be the happiest and the most interesting of the American group, and after the first act of the play, she apologized to him for the noisiness of her friends. He answered that he was very glad to see American ladies so really enjoying their visit to England, and so they had a friendly talk. Mr. Brown's neighbour explained what they doing there.

"You know, I have known these ladies all my life," she said. "We all grew up together back in our hometown in the United States. They have all lost their husbands~ and call themselves the Merry Widows. It is a sort of club, you know. They go to a foreign country every summer or two and have a lot of fun.

Basketball is a sport enjoyed by millions of fans in at least 100 countries. It's one of t
he best-known sports in the world. It all began in 1891.

Dr. James A. Naismith, the father of basketball, was an instructor at a YMCA(基督教) Training school. The school trained people to work in YMCAs. Officials at the school were concerned about the low attendance during the winter months. They felt that people didn't attend then because the school did not have a good winter sports program. So they asked Dr. Naismith for help. He came up with a new indoor game.

Naismith studied current games. He found that all the most popular games used a ball. So a ball would be a part of his new game, he decided. But kicking the ball or hitting it would be too rough for indoor. So he put 2 peach baskets up on poles. The players had to try to throw a soccer ball into them. Naismith then made thirteen rules for the game. 12 of them are still in use today. Just 7 years after the game began, professional basketball teams were formed.

And that's how basketball was born.

Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.The Birth of Basketball

B.YMCA and Basketball

C.Basketball——an Indoor Game

D.A Winter Sports Program

Music which is original is individual and personal. That is to say, it can be identified a
s belonging to a particular composer. It has particular qualities, or a style, which are not copied from another. If you can recognize the style. of a composer, you will probably be able to tell that a certain composition belongs to him or her even though you have never heard it before. A basket-maker has the skill of weaving and interweaving his materials to create colorful patterns, and an expert carpenter(木匠) has the skill of joining together different shapes and sizes of wood to make a beautiful piece of furniture. These skills may be referred to as" workmanship" (技艺). Similarly, in music a composer organizes his melodies (旋律) and rhythms and combines sounds to create harmony. A composer may be capable of thinking up very good, original tunes, yet if tunes are poorly organized, that is, if the workmanship is poor, the final result will not be to standard.

Good music expresses feelings in a way that is suitable to those feelings. There may be joy, sorrow, fear, love, anger, or whatever. Bad music, on the other hand, may confuse unrelated feelings. It may not express any important feeling at all, or it may exaggerate some feelings and make them vulgar, that is, cheap and ugly.

Good music will stand the test of time. It will not go out of fashion but will continue to be enjoyed and respected long after it is first introduced. It will gain a kind of permanent status while bad music will disappear and be forgotten quickly. In pop music, where the general rule seems to be" the newer, the better" , the test of time is the hardest test of all to pass.

A piece of original music ______.

A.has a personal style

B.sounds very familiar to our ears

C.is one whose style. you cannot recognize

D.can not be recognized as belonging to any composer

Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can cr
owd public places' that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country to keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the well-being of local inhabitants.

Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.

On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50000 dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.

Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.

Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the para. that goes before the para. ? ______.

A.It is extremely important to develop tourism

B.Building roads and hotels are essential

C.Support facilities are highly necessary

D.Planning is of great importance to tourism

In general, American food is mild tasting; most Americans do not season their food to any
great degree. Salads are very popular and are served all year, especially in the summer. Waiters tend to assume that everyone drinks coffee, but simply tell them if you want something else. If a waiter says "Now or later?" he means "Do you want coffee with your meal or after it?" Many, but certainly not all, Americans drink coffee or tea with their meals. Either way is perfectly acceptable. When dining out, you can ask for tea, milk, "coke", wine or beer if you prefer. Restaurants can only serve beer, wine or other alcoholic drinks if they have a license, that is, permission from the local government to serve alcoholic drinks. Normally, when eating in a private home, it is considered good manners to take whatever is served and not to ask for something different, unless the hostess gives you a choice.

The main course served in American meals is usually meat, fish, or poultry, but rarely is more than one of these served as a first course, however.

Most Americans eat breakfast and lunch quickly unless it is social, business, or family occasion. The evening meal, however, is usually longer and a time for the family to gather together. Rushing through day-time meals is part of the fast pace in America. Another reason for rushing through day-time meals is that many people who eat breakfast and lunch in restaurants are usually crowded with people waiting for a place so that they, too, can be served and return to work at the proper time. So each one hurries to make room for the next person. As with busy people everywhere there is a real difference between a meal that is eaten in a hurry and one that can be enjoyed with friends during one's leisure.

In America, salads are very popular and are served especially ______.

A.all year

B.in the summer

C.at lunch

D.at dinner
