8．My friends，Emma Daniels，spent the summer of 1974 traveling in Israel．During her monthlong stay in Jerusalem she often went to a café called Chocolate Soup．It was run by two men，one of whom-Alex-used to live in Montreal．One morning when Emma went in for coffee，while chatting with her new friend Alex，she mentioned that she had just finished the book she was reading and had nothing else to read．Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like，and that he'd be happy to lend it to her．As he lived just above the café，he quickly ran up to get it．The book he handed to Emma just minutes later was Markings，a book by a former Secretary-General of the United Nations （UN）．
Emma had never read it，nor had she ever bought a copy．But，when she opened it up，she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover in her own handwriting．It turned out that the summer before，at a concert back in Montreal，Emma had met a Californian who was in town visiting friends．They decided to exchange addresses，but neither of them had any paper．The man opened up a book he was carrying in his backpack and asked Emma to write her name and address inside．When he returned to California，he left the book behind in Montreal，and his friend Alex kept it．When Alex later moved to Jerusalcm，he took the book along．

解答 21．答案A．推測判斷題．根據(jù)第一段"Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like，and he'd be happy to lend it to her"可知這本書是Alex主動借給作者的，是為了表達友情．故選A．
22．答案D．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)"But，when she opened it up，she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover，in her own handwriting"，floored的意思是十分吃驚的，A．高興的；B．滿意的；C．擔心的；D．吃驚的．選項D的意思最接近．故選D．
23．答案A．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第二段"It turned out that the summer before，at a concert back in Montreal，Emma had met a Californian who was in town visiting friends．"可知the Californian met Emma in a concert，故選A．
24．答案D．推測判斷題．根據(jù)短文可知去年夏天The Californian在交換地址時讓Emma把地址寫在書上，然后又把書落在Montreal被Alex保存起來了，所以書的最早主人是the Californian．故選D．

點評 本文考查學生記敘類文章閱讀水平，學生需要認真閱讀原文，把握文章大意，對文章脈絡(luò)有整體了解．能夠仔細查找文中細節(jié)，能根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容進行合理的推測判斷．

18．Drunken driving-sometimes called America's socially accepted form of murder-has become a national epidemic （流行病）．Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers，adding up to an incredible 250，000 over the past ten years．
A drunken driver is usually referred to as one with 0.10-blood alcohol content or roughly three beer glasses of wine or shots of whisky drunk within two hours．Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American manly image and judges were lenient in most courts，but the drunken killing has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies，especially concerning young children，that public opinion is no longer so tolerant．
Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21，reversing a trend （逆轉(zhuǎn)潮流） in the 1960s to reduce it to 18．After New Jersey lowered it to 18，the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled，so the state recently upped it back to 21．Reformers，however，fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop"responsible attitudes"about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink．
Though new laws have led to increased arrests and tests in many areas already，to a marked drop in accidents，some states are also punishing bars for serving customers too many drinks．A bar in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more double brandies to a customer who was"obviously drunk"and later drove off the road，killing a nine-year-old boy．
As the accidents continue to occur daily in every state，some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13 years national ban of alcohol that began in 1919，which President Hoover called the"noble experiment"．They forgot that legal prohibition didn't stop drinking，but encouraged political corruption （腐敗） and organized crime．As with the booming drug trade generally，there is no easy solution．

31．What can be inferred from the fact of the traffic accidents in New Jersey？D
A．Young drivers were usually bad．
B．Drivers should not be allowed to drink．
C．Some drivers didn't surprise the legal drinking age．
D．The legal drinking age should be raised．
32．The underlined word"lenient"in the first paragraph meansC．
A．serious      
B．cruel           
C．merciful    
D．determined
33．Which of the following statements best shows the writer's opinion of drunken driving？A
A．It is difficult to solve this problem．
B．It may lead to organized crime．
C．The new laws can stop heavy drinking 
D．There should be no bars to serve drinks．
34．In America，the number of people killed by drunken drivers on average isC．
A.3 per day                    
B.250，000 over the last 10 years
C.72 each day                      
D．less than 500 each week
35．Drunken driving has become a major national problem becauseB．
A．drinking is America's socially accepted habit
B．most Americans drink quite a lot
C．not many people realized the severe subsequences caused by heavy drinking
D．publicity did not pay much attention to road accidents．

16．Relax During a Job Interview
Few people actually like job interviewing．It's nerve-wracking trying to show your"best"self to a perfect stranger．（16）GThat's not easy，but there are some ways to pull yourself together and feel more confident．
Prepare solid talking points．It's always best to over-prepare for possible questions by not only researching the company and the person interviewing you，but also by preparing answers and practicing those responses．Review the skills and experiences requested in the job announcement and have two to three examples how you have demonstrated each one．（17）B
Remember：It's a two-way street．This is conversation，not an interrogation（審問）（18）DRemembering that this is a back and forth discussion，where you can-and-should ask questions as well as answer them，can help you feel more comfortable．
Just breathe．（19）AYour body will relax a lot．You want to avoid upper chest breathing，as it tends to just move you，stress upward to your face．
（20）Fif you go into an interview picking apart your outfit or imperfect responses，you're only hurting your chances of coming off as calm and collected．Turn off your negative self-talk and then create a different self-talk message，like，"I am here to share the best of my ability and that is all I can really do．"
Work it out．Putting in some gym time on the morning of your interview can help you get rid of any nervous tension．Exercise helps calm your nervous system and tends to reduce the intensity of physical manifestations（表現(xiàn)形式）of stress such as restlessness．
A．Before you walk into your interview，take a few deep breaths．
B．This will strengthen your answers and allow you to show how your experience is relevant to the job or organization for which you're interviewing．
C．When faced with an interviewer，you may be nervous．
D．Don't forget that you're not the only one being interviewed-you're also interviewing the organization．
E．Put your idea into practice．
F．Stop the negative thoughts．
G．You're trying to prove you're the one for the job and that you can handle stressful situations．
