That is why so many Americans do not throw things away. They put them outside their houses. They put on a “For Sale” sign. And, as simple as that, they have a yard sale.The sellers put a paid announcement(付费通告)in a local newspaper. It tells when and where the yard sale will take place. These sales are very popular during weekends in spring, summer, and autumn. Early in the morning, all the things to be sold are carried out of the house. Then they sit all day in the sunlight----like tiredguests at a party----waiting for someone to take them home.Just about anything can be sold at a yard sale. Sometimes, there are more clothes than anything else. Cooking equipment is also popular. So are old toys, tools, books, tables and chairs. Then there are objects cal led “white elephants”. A white elephant is something you think is extremely ugly or useless. It may be an electric light shaped like a fish. You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it. To someone else, however, it might be a thing of beauty and joy.Some people go to yard sales to find a special thing that they collect. It may be old toy trains, for example, or painting of dogs. Experts say more Americans are collecting old things now than ever before. Most people who go to yard sales, however, are not looking for anything special. They might buy an object simply because it costs so little. They enjoy negotiating(谈判) over prices, even if they really do not need the object. Later, they may hold their own yard to sell all the things they have bought.41. What kind of things will go to a yard sale?A. Cheap and ugly things.B. Things people no longer use.C. Things out of season.D. Things of great value.42.

Which of the following is NOT true about a yard sale?A. It may not be held when the weather is very cold.B. It can last for a whole day.C. It is usually held with a party.D. It is held outdoors.44. We can infer from the last paragraph that__________.A. people may find something of great value on a yard saleB. yard sales only attract those who have a low incomeC. things on a yard sale can cost people a lotD. most people don’t want to go to yard sales.BIn America when you hear, “Well, I guess I'll have to face the music”, it doesn't mean that he is planning to go to hear a singer or attend a concert. It is something far less unhappy than you are called in by your leader to explain why you did this and that or why you did not do this or that.At times, almost all of us have to “face the music”, especially as children. We can all remember fath er’s angry words “I want to talk to you”. And only because we did not listen to him. What a bad thing it was!In the middle or at the end of every term, we students have to “face the music”. The result of the exam will decide whether we will face the mu sic or not. If ……, that’ll mean parents’ cold faces and contempt (轻视) of the teachers and classmates.Every American, young or old, is familiar with the expression. It is at least 100 years old. It really means that you have to do something, no matter how terrible the whole thing might be, because you know you have no choice.45. “To face the music” means “to____ ”.A. go to the concertB. do something that we don’t like toC. go to the music showD. do something pleasant46.

The young Americans know what “to face the music” means.D. Only the old in the United States know the meaning of “to face the music”.CEveryone is born with their own built-in burglar(窃贼) alarms, called the sense of sight and sound．Unluckily, many of us go around with the alarm turned off.We don’t see the stranger wandering outside the house next door.We don’t notice the so unds from the flat upstairs.(Weren’t they supposed to be on holiday?)The police can only do so much to prevent crime. There never can be enough of them to guard every home in every town. So they need your help in fighting with the burglars，the vandals（恣意破坏者）, and the car thieves.Not, of course, by setting out to have a go every time you see something suspicious. It’ll always be the job of the police to arrest criminals.But by acting as a line of communication between them and your community, for instance, you probably know far more about your immediate neighborhoods than the police ever could.A stranger in someone’s garden would probably be far more obvious to you than it would to even the local police, if, of course, you were on the look-out.That’s the whole idea behind the Neighborhood Watch schemes, springing up around the country to create a spirit of watchfulness within a community, anything suspicious being reported to the police.It’s early days yet, but results so far are very enc ouraging. The crime figures are already dropping in many of the areas running the scheme. And all due to people like you.48.

Although some are wild, and can be deadly, each is also unique in its own way. Whales, sharks and dolphins are the main subjects of sea-animal research, with dolphins standing out from whales and sharks for their friendly behavior with humans. No doubt the desire to learn some interesting things about dolphins has led you to this article, and you too are eager to know more about these sea creatures.It is sometimes believed that Dolphins have been evolved from land mammals (哺乳动物). Among sea mammals, dolphins are the most advanced in intelligence. You may be surprised to learn that they are close relatives of camels and cows. The debate on the origin of the dolphin is an unending one, however. Some believe that they evolved from land-based hoofed (有蹄的) mammals, others believe that they evolved from other different kinds of mammals many millions of years ago. There are about 32 types of dolphins that live in salt water, each unique in its color and body shape. Five other types live in fresh water.A grown-up dolphin eats nearly 20 to 22 kilos of fish every day. The eating habits of dolphins depend on where they live, and on the season. Seasons in which fish are abundant are like party time for dolphins. Dolphins decide how much they are going to eat based on the fat content of the fish available. They’ve a good sense of understanding about their hunger.The social skills and intelligence of dolphins make them very attractive for zoos and aquariums, where they are often trained to show off their diving skills. Dolphins also communicate with each other by special sounds.52.
