A
Now some women are spending a weekend at Mother’s Camp(营地). There, husbands and children are not allowed. Why would a woman want to take a vacation without her family? Some women say they need time to be alone.
At Mother’s Camp a woman has room to herself. She can sleep, read or watch TV, and no one will bother her. No children will ask, “Mom, what’s for dinner?” No husband will say, “Oh, dear, I can’t find any clean socks.” In fact almost 50% of women in the United States work outside the home. Many of them work full-time and then come home to a second job——taking care of their homes and families. These working women say one of their biggest problems is housework.
In the United States, working wives do about 75% of the housework. Many of their husbands say they want to help. But then they burn the rice or they can’t find the pans. They ask so many questions that their wives decide it is easier to do the job themselves.
Some women go to Mother’s Camp just to get a break from housework. For two days they don’t cook, they don’t clean, they don’t look after their children and husbands. What do they do? They enjoy warm, sunny weather, walking, swimming or boating in a clear blue lake and sing songs around the campfire. They relax away from home. They have a really wonderful vacation at Mother’s Camp.
41. From this passage we can see in the United States.
A. women want to work outside the home

C. husbands do as much housework as their wives
D. women do not like to stay at home with their families

C. swim in the lake D. bring their husbands and children
43. is one of the biggest troubles for working wives in the United States.

Rivers are one of our most important natural resources(自然资源). Many of the world’s great cities are located on rives, and almost every country has at least one river flowing through it that plays an important role in the lives of its people.
Since the beginning of history, people have used rives for transportation. The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi. The lifeline of Egypt is the Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation, ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in Southeast Asia. The greatest of all for navigation(航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil. It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles upon it.
Besides transportation, rivers give food, water to drink, water for crops, and chances for fun and recreation for the people who live along their banks. In order to increase the supply of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam(大坝)across a river and let a lake form behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate(灌溉)their fields but also to make electricity for their homes and industries.
However, large cities and industries that are located upon rivers often make problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with chemicals and other materials. People are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits(利益)of this natural resource.
45. The greatest river for navigation is ______.
A. the Amazon B. the Nile C. the Mekong D. the Mississippi
46. From a dam, people can use the water for ______.
A. keeping the rivers clean B. making electricity
C. washing clothes D. irrigation and making electricity
47. The water in the river is polluted because of _____.
A. people’s drinking water too much B. people’s swimming in the river too much
C. chemicals and other materials D. people’s building a dam across a river
48. The best title of the passage is ______.
A. Rivers in Cities B. The Importance of Rivers
C. Transportation D. Natural Resources
C
Traveling to all corners of the world gets easier and easier, but how well do we know and understand each other? Here is a simple test. Imagine you will hold a meeting at four o’clock. What time should you expect your foreign friends to come? If they are Germans, they will arrive on time. If they are American, probably they will be fifteen minutes early. If they are British, they will be fifteen minutes late. So you see, different people have different habits in different parts of the world.
The British seemed to think since the English language was widely used in the world, what they did was certain to be widely understood. Very soon they found that they were completely(完全地)wrong. For example, the British are happy to have a business lunch and discuss business matters with a drink during the meal. The Japanese prefer not to work while eating. Lunch is a time for them to relax and get to know each other, and they don’t drink at lunch. The Germans like to talk business before dinner. The French like to eat first and talk afterwards. They have to be well fed and watered before they discuss anything.
49. How many countries are mentioned in the passage?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
50. If there is a meeting at eight o’clock, when will the Germans arrive?
A. At 8:15. B. At 8:00 o’clock. C. At 7:45. D. We don’t know.
51. Why will the British be fifteen minutes late when they are invited to a meeting?
A. Because they are too busy to arrive on time.
B. Because they think what they do can be understood by others.
C. Because they are forgetful. D. Because they have formed the habit of being late.
52. The sentence “They have to be well fed and watered before they discuss anything.” means_.
A. They like drinking much water before discussion
B. They like eating much before discussion
C. They like eating and drinking enough before discussion
D. They like neither eating much nor drinking much before discussion
