    16、to buy. Satisfaction guaranteed.“ She said this in such a funny way that everybody thought it was a good joke and laughed. And then, to make matters worse, I heard my mother saying to Waverly: “True, one cant teach style, June is not sophisticated like you. She must have been born this way.“ I was s

    17、urprised at my self, how humiliated I felt. I had been outsmarted by Waverly once again, and now betrayed by my own mother. Five months ago, some time after the dinner, my mother gave me my “lifes importance,“ a jade pendant on a gold chain. The pendant was not a piece of jewelry I would have chosen

    18、 for myself. It was almost the size of my little finger, a mottled green and white color, intricately carved. To me, the whole effect looked wrong: too large, too green, too garishly ornate. I stuffed the necklace ha my lacquer box and forget about it. But these day, I think about my lifes importanc

    19、e. I wonder what it means, because my mother died three months ago, six days before my thirty-sixth birthday. And shes the only person I could have asked to tell me about lifes importance, to help me understand my grief. I now wear that pendant every day. I think the carvings mean something, because

    20、 shapes and details, which I never seem td notice until after they are pointed out to me, always mean something to Chinese people. I know I could ask Auntie Lindo, Auntie An-mei, or other Chinese friends, but I also know they would tell me a meaning that is different from what my mother intended. Wh

    21、at if they tell me this curving line branching into three oval shapes is a pomegranate and that my mother was wishing me fertility and posterity? What if my mother really meant the carvings were a branch of pears to give me purity and honesty? And because l think about this all the time, I always no

    22、tice other people wearing these same jade pendants-not the flat rectangular medallions or the round white ones with holes in the middle but ones like mine, a two-inch oblong of bright apple green, Its as though we were all sworn to the same secret covenant, so secret we dont even know what we belong

    23、 to. East weekend, for example, ! saw a bartender wearing one. As I fingered mine, I asked him. “Whered you get yours?“ “my mother gave it to me,“ He said. I asked him why, which is a nosy question that only one Chinese person can ask another; in a crowd Caucasians, two Chinese people are already li

    24、ke family. “She gave it to me after I got divorced, I guess my mothers telling me Im still worth something.“ And I knew by the wonder in his voice that he had no idea what the pendant really meant. 21 In paragraph 1, Waverly characterizes Junes advertisement as being_. ( A) unsophisticated and heavy

    25、 handed ( B) somber and convoluted ( C) clear and concise ( D) humorous and effective 22 In the context of the passage, the statement “I was surprised at my self“ (paragraph 3) suggests that June_. ( A) had been unaware if the extant of her emotional vulnerability ( B) was exasperated that she allow

    26、ed Waverly to embarrass her in public ( C) was amazed that she could dislike anyone so much ( D) had not realized that her mother admired her friend Waverly 23 For June, a significant aspect of what happened at the dinner party, is that_.

    27、lcome ( B) her mother had criticized her for arguing with Waverly ( C) her mother had sided against her in front of family and friends ( D) Waverly had angered Junes mother 24 The description of Junes encounter with the bartender primarily serves to suggest that_. ( A) that relationship of mother an

    28、d son is different from that of mother and daughter ( B) June is not the only one who ponders the meaning of a jade pendant ( C) a jade pendant symbolizes the mystery of life and death ( D) June finally understands the true meaning of her jade pendant 25 The passage indicates that the act of giving

    29、a jade pendant can best be described as_. ( A) a widely observed tradition ( B) a mothers plea for forgiveness ( C) an example of a mothers extravagance ( D) an unprecedented act of generosity 25 The decline of civility and good manners may be worrying people more than crime, according to Gentility

    30、Recalled, edited by Digby Anderson, which laments the breakdown of traditional codes that once regulated social conduct. It criticizes the fact that “manners“ are scorned as repressive and outdated. The result, according to Mr. Anderson director of the Social Affairs Unit, an independent thing-tank

    31、-is a society characterized by rudeness: loutish behaviour on the streets, jostling in crowds, impolite shop assistants and bad-tempered drivers. Mr. Anderson says the cumulative effect of these-apparently trivial, but often offensive-is to make everyday life uneasy, unpredictable and unpleasant. As

    32、 they are encountered far more often than crime, they can cause more anxiety than crime. When people lament the disintegration of law and order, he argues, what they generally mean is order, as manifested by courteous forms of social contact. Meanwhile, attempts to re-establish restraint and self-co

    33、ntrol through “politically correct“ rules are artificial. The book has contributions from 12 academics in disciplines ranging from medicine to sociology and charts what it calls the “coarsening“ of Britain. Old-fashioned terms such as “gentleman“ and “lady“ have lost all meaningful resonance and nee

    34、d to be re-evaluated, it says. Rachel Trickett, honorary fellow and former principal of St. Hughs College, Oxford, says that the notion of a “lady“ protects women rather than demeaning them. Feminism and demands for equality have blurred the distinctions between the sexes, creating situations where

    35、men are able to dominate women because of their more aggressive and forceful natures, she says. “Women, without some code of deference or respect, become increasingly victims.“ Caroline Moore, the first woman fellow of Peterhouse, Cambridge, points out that “gentleman“ is now used only with irony or

    36、 derision. “The popular view of a gentleman is poised somewhere between the imbecile parasite and the villainous one: between Woosteresque chinless wonders, and those heartless capitalist toffs who are the stock-in-trade of television.“ She argues that the concept is neither class-bound nor rigid; c

    37、onventions of gentlemanly behaviour enable a man to act naturally as an individual within shared assumptions while taking his place in society. “Politeness is no constraint, precisely because the manners.are no code but a language, rich, flexible, restrained and infinitely subtle.“ For Anthony Ohear

    38、, professor of philosophy at the University of Bradford, manners are closely associated with the different forms of behaviour appropriate to age and status. They curb both the impetuosity of youth and the bitterness of old age. Egalitarianism, he says, has led to people failing to act their age. “We

    39、 have vice-chancellors with earrings, aristocrats as hippies.the trendy vicar on his motorbike.“ Dr Athena Leoussi, sociology lecturer at Reading University, bemoans the deliberate neglect by people of their sartorial appearance. Dress, she says, is the outward expression of attitudes and aspiration

    40、s. The ubiquitousness of jeans “displays a utilitarian attitude“ that has “led to the cultural impoverishment of everyday life“. Dr Leoussi says that while cloths used to be seen as a means of concealing taboo forces of sexuality and violence, certain fashions-such as leather jackets have the opposi

    41、te effect. Dr Bruce Charlton, a lecturer in public health medicine in Newcastle upon Tyne, takes issue with the excessive informality of relations between professionals such as doctors and bank managers, and their clients. He says this has eroded the distance and respect necessary in such relationsh

    42、ips. For Tristam Engelhardt, professor of medicine in Houston, Texas, says manners are bound to morals. “Manners express a particular set of values,“ he says. “Good manners interpret and transform social reality. They provide social orientation.“ 26 According to the passage, the decline of good mann

    43、ers is more worrying because _. ( A) it leads to more crime in society ( B) people view manners as old-fashioned ( C) rudeness on the street cannot be stemmed out ( D) it can seriously affect our daily life 27 Rachel Trickett seems to indicate the term “lady“ _. ( A) has acquired a different meaning

    44、 ( B) is too old-fashioned to use ( C) is preferred by feminists ( D) victimizes women in society 28 According to Caroline Moore, the media has projected a _ image of the gentleman. ( A) humorous ( B) favourable ( C) negative ( D) traditional 29 In Anthony Ohears view, a well-mannered person _. ( A)

    45、 acts rashly when he is young ( B) tends to be bad-tempered in old age ( C) behaves with a sense of appropriacy ( D) attaches importance to his status 30 Dr. Bruce Charlton would probably prefer to see a more formal relationship _. ( A) among doctors ( B) among managers ( C) between doctors and mana

    46、gers ( D) between doctors and patients 30 Fish farming in the desert may at first sound like an anomaly, but in Israel over the last decade a scientific hunch has turned into a bustling business. Scientists here say they realized they were no to something when they found that brackish water drilled

    47、from underground desert aquifers (含土水层 ) hundreds of feet deep could be used to raise warm-water fish. The geothermal water, less than one-tenth as saline as sea water, free of pollutants and a toasty 98 degrees on average, proved an ideal match. “It was not simple to convince people that growing fi

    48、sh in the desert makes sense,“ said Samuel Appelbaum, a professor and fish biologist at the Jacob Blaustein Institutes for Desert Research at the Sede Boqer campus of Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. “It is important to stop with the reputation that arid land is nonfertile, useless land,“ said Pr

    49、ofessor Appelbaum, who pioneered the concept of desert aquaculture in Israel in the late 1980s. “We should consider arid land where subsurface water exists as land that has great opportunities, especially in food production because of the low level of competition on the land itself and because it gives opportunities to its inhabitants.“ The next step in this country,
