In many instances it is the inviter who pays, as one would expect, but in some instances each one pays his or her own check, you “go Dutch”. This is often the case with friends in informal situations, such as “Let’s go get a beer” or “Want a cup of coffee?” in some parts of the country. However, some people like to entertain friends by taking them to a restaurant for dinner instead of having dinner at home. In this case the host expects to pay and the guest may offer to leave the tip, which may be declined by the host. (If so, just let the matter drop.) If the invitation is expressed in fairly casual terms, such as “Let’s go to (name of restaurant) for dinner”, it may be more of a suggestion than an invitation, so you should be prepared to pay your part of the bill. If you want to invite someone for a meal at a restaurant, be explicit: “I’d like to take you to …” Americans should be explicit also, but they often assume you know the local customs in the matter. Ask a friend’s advice if you are not sure. 6.The host-guest relationship is clear in the U.S. when someone asks you to his or her home. 7.“Go Dutch” means someone will pay for the meal. 8.When your offer to leave the tip is refused by the host, you should just leave the tip on the table. 9.If an American casually suggests “Let’s go to Quanjude for dinner”, it is expected that the American will pay the bill. 10.If you want to invite an American to a meal, you should make it clear.

Questions 11 – 15: Read passage 2, and then answer the questions by choosing the best answer from A, B, C and D. Write your answers on the Answer Sheet. 阅读下面这篇短文。短文后有5个问题。请从每个问题后的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出正确选项。 In a job interview, the first question is often a "breaking the ice" type of question. Don’t be surprised if the interviewer asks you something like: “How are you today?" or "What do you think of the weather lately?" Answer the question without going into too much detail. Talking about qualifications is the most important part of any job interview. Your qualifications include your education and any special training you may have received in the past. Your qualifications also include your experience in any previous work. It is important to explain what experience you have in detail. Generally, employers want to know exactly what you did and how well you accomplished your tasks. This is not the time to be modest. Try to avoid some big mistakes in the job interview, such as leaving the mobile on and criticizing previous bosses. The worst thing is you yourself have no questions. Having no questions shows you are either not interested or not prepared. Remember that interviewers are more impressed with the questions you ask than the selling points you try to make. 11.The passage is mainly about ______________. A.the typical questions asked in job interview B.importance of interviewees’ qualifications in job interviews C.some common mistakes found in job interviews D.Do’s and Don’ts in job interviews 12.A "breaking the ice" type of question is ____________.

Most people have seen the film Titanic, starring Kate Winslett and Leonardo DiCaprio. Anyone who has seen the film will enjoy this book by Eric Kentley. This book is called Discover the Titanic, and although it is written for children, any adults will enjoy reading it. Beautifully illustrated with photographs, drawings and diagrams, the book shows how one might go down deep into the bottom of the sea to find the wrecked ship, and obtain some of the wonderful things that went down with it. The cover gives us a good idea of what is inside the book. For example, if you study the diagram on the cover, you will see how the ship sank--and, as it did so, broke into two parts because of the weight of the back section. Give this book to your child as a present--and you will both enjoy making the model that comes with this book as an added extra! 16.The book is about making the film Titanic. 17.The book is written for both children and adults. 18.The book contains many pictures and drawing. 19.The book shows how the sunken ship might be found and valuable things on it can be brought back. 20.The diagram on the cover shows how the ship hit an iceberg.

Chicago is situated in the state of Illinois, on the south west shore of Lake Michigan. Many people know Chicago as the home of the famous American basketball team, the Chicago Bulls, for whom Michael Jordan played from 1984 to 1993. Others will know it as the home of not just one but two famous American football teams—the Chicago Bears, and the Chicago Cardinals. One important reason for the importance of Chicago is the fact that it is at the cross-roads of North America, and is the center of a huge network of communications. Railway lines go from Chicago in all directions; it is connected with the vast Mississippi River by a ship canal, and the Illinois River. Chicago airport is also one of the business airports in the world. Chicago is a very important cultural center, second only to New York.

Questions 11 – 15: Read passage 2, and then answer the questions by choosing the best answer from A, B, C and D. Write your answers on the Answer Sheet. 阅读下面这篇短文。短文后有5个问题。请从每个问题后的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出正确选项。 An important question about eating out is who pays for the meal. If a friend of yours asks you to have lunch with him, you may say something like this, “I’m afraid it’ll have to be some place cheap, as I have very little money.” The other person may say, “OK, I’ll meet you at McDonald’s.” This means that two agree to go Dutch, that is, each person pays for himself. He may also say, “Oh, no. I want to take you to lunch at Johnson’s”, or “I want you to try the steak(牛排) there. It’s great.” This means the person wants to pay for both of you. If you feel friendly towards this person, you can go with him and you needn’t pay for the meal. American customs about who pays for dates(约会) are much the same as in other parts of the world. In the old days, American women wanted men to pay for all the meals. But, today, a university girl or a woman in the business world will usually pay her own way during the day. If a man asks her to dinner or a dance outside the working hours, it means “come as my guest”. So as you can see, it is a polite thing to make the question clear at the very beginning. 11.In the old days _______ often paid for all the meals. A. women B. men C. university students D. businessmen 12.“To go Dutch” means to _______. A. go to play outside B. eat out C. pay for oneself D. go to a cheaper eating place 13.“McDonald’s” here means _______. A. a tea house B. a gate C. an office D. an eating place 14.If you feel friendly to the person, _______. A. you should pay for him B. you needn’t pay for him C. you can accept his invitation D. you can’t accept his invitation 15.We’d better know who will pay for the meal _______.
