21、Several days ago, I went to my aunt’s home and saw my cousin who was studying English linguistics in a college. He showed me his learning materials. Here are two pages of it.
Nice Generally speaking, the word “nice” is quite an expression of praise(赞扬). However, back in the late 12th century, if someone said you were “nice”, it was far from saying good words about you. Very long ago, “nice” was used to mean “foolish” and “stupid”. That sounds more like the kind of words that would start a fight, not put a smile on someone’s face. Later on in the 13th century, “nice” came to mean “shy and nervous”. During the 14th century, it even meant “being careful.” But finally in the 18th century, it changed to the kinder meaning we know today, and ever since then, people have been using it in a lovable way. | Sad All of us get sad from time to time. It’s a usual part of life. A loved one passes away. We expect too much progress in an exam. Or the store is out of our favorite drink. These are all things that can make us sad. However, once upon a time, “sad” have a very different meaning. Back in the 14th century, it was the perfect word if you had eaten too much food at dinner. Through the years, the meaning of “sad” changed to “heavy” and then “tired”. Interestingly, when “sad” took on its present meaning, it was actually used instead of “unrot”, an old English word that was the opposite of “rot” that meant “cheerful” or “glad”. |
Now I know at some point in history, the meanings of some common words that we see every day meant something much different. The English language is developing(发展) all the time.
【1】What does the underlined word “linguistics” mean?
A.something about history
B.something about books
C.something about language
D.something about feelings
【2】The underlined word “These” refers to(指代)the following except(除了) that ________.
A.a loved one passes away
B.we expect too much progress in an exam
C.the store is out of our favourite drink
D.we have eaten too much food at dinner
【3】The purpose(目的) of the passage is to tell us ________.
A.the meanings of all words are different at some point in history
B.the writer’s cousin learns English well because of his learning materials
C.we should know about all different meanings of words in history
D.the meanings of some words are changing because language is developing
22、 Help the Animals
Hippos are large animals with small eyes and ears. In Africa, they live in the rivers. But the rivers are drying up. There are about 3,000 hippos in the wild now. | |
Kakapo is the biggest parrot in the world and it looks like an owl (猫头鹰). This parrot cannot fly. The rats (老鼠) killed many of this kind of parrots. Now there are only 100 left. | |
A manatee looks a bit like a hippo and a bit like a seal (海豹). In order to live, the manatees swim to where there is more water. Many get stranded (搁浅) and some are killed. Now there are about 6,600 left. | |
The aye-aye has ears like a bat (蝙蝠) and a body like a cat. People killed many of them because they think it brings bad luck. There are only 32 aye-aye in the zoos. |
【1】Where do hippos live?
A.In the sea B.In the zoos. C.In the rivers D.In the forests.
【2】How many kakapos are left in the world?

23、Respect is something often given to strangers, like politeness, but many people often forget to use it at home. Showing respect for family members needs more thoughts.
Show politeness. If politeness is good for strangers, it’s good for home use as well. Remember to say “please” and “thank you”, “hello”and “goodbye”, “good morning” and “good evening”. These are basic rules of etiquette (礼节), which can show your respect for family members when they are used in communication with your family members.
Defend your family members. There’s no need to go out and cause trouble to protect your family. But when you’re in public, watch what you say about your family members. When you face criticism(批评) from others defend your family. After all, their bad habits have a bad effect on you, too.
Give them space to grow up. Respect sometimes requires you to mind your own business, even at home. For example, respect your sister’s choice of her new friend, even when you don’t agree, by allowing her to make her own decisions and being there to support her when they argue with each other. Skip the “I told you so” out of respect for your sister and your family connection.
Keep communication. You don’t have to agree with your family members to show them respect. Even though you don’t agree with it, remember to respect a family member by continuing to communicate with that person. Once you have stated your own opinion, though, you may want to avoid the disagreeable subject.
【1】Which of the following shows your respect to your family members?
A.Making decisions for your sister.
B.Protecting your family in spite of making trouble.
C.Always agreeing with what they say.
D.Saying “hello” or “thank you” to them.
【2】What should you do if you disagree with your family members?
A.Keep communicating but avoid unpleasant subjects.
B.Stop talking to them.
C.Never discuss anything with them again.
D.Change your own opinion.
【3】What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Why should you respect family members?
B.How should you defend family members?
C.How should you respect family members?
D.Why should you respect family members choices?
【4】This passage is probably taken from a(n) ________.
A.science magazine
B.movie review
C.advertisement
D.newspaper
