II. 阅读（共两节，满分30分）

第一节：阅读理解（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

When you cut your skin, you bleed(流血). If a person loses a lot of blood, he will become ill and may die. Blood is very important. People have always known that. At one time, some people even drank blood to make them strong!

When doctors understand how blood goes around inside the body, they try ways of giving blood to people who need it. They take blood from the healthy people and give it to people who need it. This is called "blood transfusion（输血）". The blood goes from the arm of the healthy person into the arm of the sick person.

But there are two problems. First, it does not always work. Sometimes people die when they have blood transfusion. Later, doctors find that we do not all have the same kind of blood. There are four groups—O, A, B and AB. We all have blood of one of these groups. They also find that they can give any kind of blood to people of group AB. But they find that they must give A-group blood to A-group people and B-group blood to B-group people. I have O-group blood and the doctor told me that I could give blood to anyone else safely.

There is another problem. To give blood of the right kind, doctors have to find a person of the right blood group. Often they can not find a person in time. If they have a way to keep the blood until someone needs it, they can always have the right kind of blood. At first they find they can keep it in bottles for fifteen to twenty days. They do this by making it very cold. Then they find how to keep it longer. In the end they find a way of keeping blood for a very long time.

We call a place where we keep money a "bank". We call a place where we keep blood a "blood bank". One day, when you grow up, you may decide to give blood to a "blood bank". In this way you may stop someone from dying. Or perhaps one day you may become ill. You may need blood. The "blood bank" will give it to you.

26. From the passage, we learn that sometimes people die when they have blood transfusions because they .

A. are unhealthy people B. have lost a lot of blood

C. are not given the right kind of blood D. are AB-group people

27. Which of the following is true?

A. Doctors can give any kind of blood to the writer.

B. The writer can give blood to B-group people.

C. The writer has never had a blood transfusion.

D. The writer has the same kind of blood as his father.

A. give the right kind of blood to the people who need it in time

B. keep different groups of blood as much as possible

C. make it easier to sell or buy blood

D. keep blood for more than twenty hundred years

29. From the last paragraph (段落) of the passage, we learn that .

A. the writer thinks it's good to give blood to a "blood bank"

B. we may become ill if we give blood to a "blood bank"

C. many people died because they lost a lot of blood

D. blood is more important than money

30. The writer doesn't talk about in the passage.

A. how important blood is to us B. the four groups of blood

B

American is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.

Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.

Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine (常规). They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.

For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!

31. The writer of this passage must be ___________.

A. an American B. a Chinese C. a professor D. a student

32. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their family.

B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.

C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.

D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.

33. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be _________________.

A. warmly welcomed at the airport B. offered a ride to his home

C. treated hospitably at his home D. treated to dinner in a restaurant

34. From the underlined sentence, we can know the Chinese people ________________.

A. are strict with time B. don’t take time seriously

C. don’t know how to use time D. are willing to spend time for friends

35. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “________________”.

A. Friendships between Chinese B. Friendships between Americans

C. Americans’ hospitality D. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendship
