第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节： 请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。（共15小题；每题2分，满分30分）

A

In the UK, there is one car for every 5 people. In the USA there is one for every 2.5 people. So Americans sometimes have one car for every member of the family.

The family, with whom Liz, a student from Britain, is staying, have got four cars: a Mercedes-Benz for father, who drives it to work, a Chevrolet for mother, who uses it for shopping and visiting her friends, and Alex and his sister both have Fords. All the four cars are less than two years old, but none of them are as large as Liz has imagined.

“Smaller Cars have been made for a long time now,” Alex explained. “Partly because large cars burn up too much gas, and partly because of competition from smaller foreign cars, mostly Japanese and German.”

“I’ve noticed,” Liz said, “that your sidewalks don’t go as far as the suburbs, and yet you’re not supposed to walk along the highway.”

“That’s because nobody walks to work here,” Alex explained. We do as little walking downtown as possible. We can’t do without our cars. We can do almost everything by using cars.”

“Did your father give you and June your cars?”

“Sure! But he won’t have money for gas or repairs or license. That’s why we both have part-time jobs three times a week. June waits table. I’m a teaboy.”

“But June’s just 17. At home we can’t get a learner’s license till we’re 17.”

“We get one at 16 here. So all we have to do is to take a road test and get a driver’s license the moment we’re 17.”

56. June’s mother ____________.

A. is a housewife B. is a teacher

C. is visiting her friends D. doesn’t know Liz

57. All the four cars .

A. are new and larger than Liz has bought

B. were made in Japan and Germany

C. aren’t old and they aren’t allowed to go to the suburbs

D. were bought less than two
