第一部分: 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

Take a deep breath and drink some water for 15 seconds! This is just one of hundreds of tips you might get if you have the hiccups(打嗝). Hiccups are so mysterious that we really don’t know why they start and why they stop.

Everyone has a favorite cure for a case of the hiccups. Some people think that a good scare is necessary to get well. Others eat a teaspoon of sugar. Still others drink a glass of water with a knife in it.

An American man named Jack O’Leary claimed (声称) to have hiccupped 160 million times over a period of eight years. He tried 60,000 cures, but none of them worked. Finally he prayed to Saint Jude（圣徒犹大）, the saint of hopeless cases, and his hiccups stopped at once.

It took a British engineer eight months to cure his hiccups. People from all over the world wrote him letters with suggestions for getting well. He tried them all, but the hiccups continued. Finally, he drank a “secret”mixture someone had sent him. By that evening his hiccups were gone.

Why did these cures work for these two men? No one really knows. But people who have studied many cases of hiccups have an idea. Hiccups usually go away if you believe in the cure.

   1. hard to stop B. easy to hurt

      Maria was worried. She was to have a job interview, and she wanted to look good. She decided to get some new clothes. The store owner, Pallas Hansen, helped Maria find a suit. But when she left the store, she didn’t pay for the suit!
      How could Maria do this? She was in a special store called Career Closet (职业壁橱) in San Jose, California. Pallas Hansen and Charlotte Krumwiede started this nonprofit store to help women. They knew that many women don’t find jobs because they don’t have the right clothes for a job interview. Women who don’t have a lot of money have to use their money to buy food and clothes for their children. They can’t buy clothes for themselves.
      Pallas and Charlotte started the store after they heard about a store like this in Chicago. Volunteers work in the store. Working women gave away most of the clothes to the store. This makes it possible for the customers at Career Closet to get clothes for free.
      Career Closet has helped 2,500 San Jose women, but clothes aren’t the only things women get at the store. They also get confidence. Maria is 36 years old. Her husband was hurt in an accident, and Maria needed a job to support her seven children. She went to Career Closet and got a jacket, a skirt, and a blouse. “The whole day made me feel special,” she said. Maria was a success at her interview, and she got the job. One reason she got it was because she was wearing the right clothes for the workplace.
      Pallas says, “I love this job. Sixty percent of the women get jobs. It’s like a magic godmother.”

      1. help womenB. make money

C. support children D. collect beautiful clothes

The tradition of birthday parties started a long time ago. People thought that there was a special danger from evil(邪恶) spirits, so friends and family came together to bring good thoughts and wishes and even presents. There are some traditions—such as sending birthday cards, blowing out the candles on a birthday cake and singing the “Happy Birthday” song, that you can find almost anywhere, any time. Others are more specific(特定的) to certain ages…and certain countries.

1 In China, everyone celebrates their birthday on New Year’s Day: they become one year older on that day. On a child’s second birthday, family members put different kinds of objects on the floor around the child. According to Chinese tradition, the first object that the child picks up tells you what profession(职业) the child will choose later in life.

15 In Argentina, Mexico and several other Latin American countries, girls have a special birthday celebration when they reach the age of fifteen. After a religious ceremony, the girls dance a waltz with their father and other boys.

21 In many English-speaking countries, a twenty-first birthday cake often has key on top, or the cake itself is sometimes in the shape of a key. The key means that the young person is now old enough to leave and enter the family home at any time they want to!

30 In the past in parts of Europe, men who reached the age of thirty and were still single, had to clean the stairs of the City Hall. This way every girl could see that the man didn’t have a girlfriend, and how good he was at cleaning the house!

16. Which is NOT the usual way for people anywhere to celebrate birthday?

A. Sending birthday cards. B. Dancing a waltz with others.

C. Singing the “Happy Birthday” song. D. Blowing out the candles on a birthday cake.

A. teaching the child to dance a waltz

B. sending the child to clean the stairs of the City Hall

C. allowing the child to leave the family home at any time

D. getting the child to pick up objects put on the floor

A. China B. many English-speaking countries

C. parts of Europe D. several other Latin American countries资*源%库

It’s clear that people have realized the importance of environment.
