新视野第三册1单元测试Part 1 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) (每小题:4 分) Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from th e four choices marked A, B, C and D. Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog. Language is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn lang uage when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the second genera tion is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that ca me from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of are as such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new count ry, but this doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didn't teach Korean to her children in order to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help t hem establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new cou ntry, they often get confused about their identity. My cousins told me that when they v isited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes. We must rea lize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should mak e an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand th eir heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is important in helping the se cond generation establish their identity.1. Which people are having trouble with language?A. Natives.B. People of the 2nd generation.C. People when born.D. Immigrants.2. Why are children ignoring their parents?A. Children have lost their identity.B. Parents cause children to suffer.C. They speak different languages.D. They have different job levels.3.

A proper title for this passage is ________.A. The Identity of the Second GenerationB. Korean Problems in AmericaC. Learning a New Language in the USD. Keeping Your Culture in a New Land1. D2. C3. D4. A5. DQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Ever yone in her family was there—her children, her grandchildren, and her new great-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival (节日).Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her fa mily was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was rema rkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday.Actually, the timing of Yinlan's death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists (社会学家) studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discover ed that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rise s 35 percent. Sociologists believe that these changes in death rate show the mind's po wer over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to e lderly Chinese women. Apparently some women are able to postpone (推延) their deaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time. The idea that peo ple can postpone the time of their deaths is not new. Many families tell stories of a rel ative who held on to life until after an important event. The stories people tell, howev er, are just that: stories. They are not proof that people can postpone their deaths. The sociologists' work is important because thesociologists studied facts, not stories. The facts—the drop and rise in death rates—prove that people really can postpone their deaths.6. When did Yilan die?A. During the Harvest Moon Festival.B. Before going to sleep.C. Just before the Harvest Moon Festival.D. A couple days after the Harvest Moon Festival.7. The writer tells us the story of Yilan to let us know that _________.A. the Harvest Moon Festival is important to elderly Chinese womenB.

Where did the study take place?A. China.B. Yilan's home.C. Festival grounds.D. California.9. What does the author describe as "not new"?A. The work of sociologists.B. Proof of postponing death.C. The Harvest Moon Festival.D. Stories of putting off death.10. What provides us with proof?A. The stories of family members.B. The numbers showing death rates.C. The important events.D. The postponing of death.6. D7. D8. D9. C 10. BQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog.Today's trumpet (喇叭,小号) is one of the world's oldest instruments. It is the result of many centuries of develo pment. Although it looks nothing like the ones of old days, there are many similarities . All trumpets are hollow tubes (管) They are all blown. And they all use the player's li ps to produce their basic sound. The trumpet developed as players and makers worke d to improve its design, size, shape, material, and method of construction. They wante d to create an instrument that would produce a beautiful and attractive tone, enable the performer to play all the notes of the scale, extend the range higher and lower, make i t possible to play more difficult music, and in general, be easier to play well. The rem arkable way in which the modern trumpet achieves these goals is a measure of the suc cess of all those who struggled to perfect this magnificent instrument.The trumpet is actually the leading member of an entire family of related instruments. There are trumpets of several different sizes, and in several different keys. There are c ornets (短号), bugles (军号), flugelhorns (粗管短号), and a number of others that are all similar to the trumpet in the way they are mad e and played. The trumpet family is much more than a group of related instruments th at can stir one with their sound, or narrow tubes of metal capable of producing a variet y of musical sounds. It is a link to many different periods of history and to people of many cultures. From the use of trumpets in ancient religious ceremonies to the part th ey play in modern rock bands, the trumpet family of instruments has much to tell abou t civilization and its development.11. How do trumpets all resemble each other?A. They require the same force when blowing them.B. They make the same sound when playing them.C. They use a player's lips to make a sound.D. They have the same size of hollow tube.12. Why did players and makers want to improve the trumpet?A. They wanted an instrument that'd be easy to play.B. They wanted an instrument to play easy music.C. They wanted an instrument of different sizes.D. They wanted an instrument that looked attractive.13. What is the trumpet the leading member of?A. Trumpet family instruments.B. Remarkable instruments.C. Rock band instruments.D. Religious instruments.14. What is linked by the trumpet?A. Different cultures.B. Different bands.C. Different tubes.D. Different ceremonies.15. What can trumpets tell us a lot about?A. The sound of modern rock bands.B. The development of civilization.C. The different varieties of musical sound.D.
