BBC: The Chinese culture is fascinating. During China’s Lunar New Year or Spring Festival, paper-cutting is one of China’s most popular and characteristic folk arts. The tradition goes back to the 6th century. After hundreds of years of development, it has now become a very popular way to decorate the house among country folk, especially women. During the Spring Festival, people paste(粘貼）some paper-cuttings on the entrance gates. They are supposed to bring good luck for the family.
The main cutting tools are simple: paper and scissors or an engraving(雕刻）knife. Clever craftspeople are very good at cutting out a theme about daily life. When you look at works made in this method carefully, you will be amazed by the details in the faces of the people as well as the plants and animals. Although other art forms, like painting, can also show similar scenes paper-cutting still stands out for its charm. Though simple, the color appears charmingly bright.
While it is easy to learn how to cut a piece of paper, mastering it is another thing. One must hold the knife in an upright fashion and press evenly on the paper with a little strength. Flexibility is required but the whole image will be damaged if you make one mistake. Engravers attempt to carve a circle like the moon, a straight line like a stem of wheat, a square like a brick, and many other forms, but not all of them can do them.
People find hope and comfort in expressing wishes with paper-cuttings. For a wedding ceremony, red paper-cuttings are traditional and required decorations for the furniture. Patterns of plump children holding fish signify that they will be wealthy next year.
63. Where does the writer of this passage probably come from?
A. The USA. B. Japan.
C. The UK. D. France.
64. Usually, paper-cuttings can amaze and impress people by_______ .
A. bringing good luck
B. being true-to-life
C. appearing charmingly bright
D. being all hand-made
65. When you do paper-cutting, you should_______.
A. hold the knife or scissors as tight as you can
B. avoid any unnecessary change
C. bear all the set rules in your mind
D. always be confident and not stop
66. We can learn from the passage that _______.
A. mastering paper-cutting skills is different from cutting a piece of paper
B. paper-cutting is the most popular characteristic folk art
C. women are better at paper-cutting than men
D. paper-cutting can nearly bring people good luck

三、閱讀理解：
It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they are possessive and dominant; that they do not trust their children to deal with crises; that they talk too much about certain problems and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships.
I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young.
Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste.
Sometimes you are resistant and proud because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do. If they did approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog: you can’t win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents’ control. But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself.
If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can charm others, especially parents, into doing things the way you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.
36. The author is primarily addressing _______.
A. parents of teenagers B. newspaper readers.
C. those who give advice to teenagers D. teenagers
37. The first paragraph is mainly about _______.
A. the teenagers’ criticism of their parents.
B. misunderstanding between teenagers and their parents.
C. the dominance of the parents over their children
D. the teenagers’ ability to deal with crises.
38. Teenagers tend to have strange clothes and hairstyles because they ______.
A. want to show their existence by creating a culture of their own.
B. have a strong desire to be leaders in style and taste.
C. have no other way to enjoy themselves better.
D. want to irritate their parents.
39. To improve parent-child relationships, teenagers are advised to be _____.
A. obedient B. responsible C. co-operative D. independent.

A thief entered the bedroom of the 30th President of the United States, who met him and helped him escape punishment.
The event happened in the early morning hours in one of the first days when Calvin Coolidge came into power, late in August, 1923. He and his family were living in the same third-floor suite(套房) at the Willard Hotel in Washington that had occupied several years before. The former President’s wife was still living in the White House.
Coolidge awoke to see a stranger go through his clothes, remove a wallet and a watch chain.
Coolidge spoke, “ I wish you wouldn’t take that.”
The thief, gaining his voice, said, “ Why?”
“ I don’t mean the watch and chain, only the charm(表墜). Take it near the window and read what is impressed on its back,” the president said.
The thief read, “ Presented to Calvin Coolidge.”
“ Are you President Coolidge?” he asked.
The president answered, “ Yes, and the House of Representatives（眾議院）gave me the watch charm. I’m fond of it. It would do you no good. You want money. Let’s talk this over.”
Holding up the wallet, the young man said in a low voice, “ I’ll take this and leave everything else.”
Coolidge, knowing there was 80 dollars in it, persuaded the young man to sit down and talk. He told the President he and his college roommate had overspent during their holiday and did not have enough money to pay their hotel bill.
Coolidge added up the roommate and two rail tickets back to the college. Then he counted out 32 dollars and said it was a loan(借款).
He then told the young man, “ There is a guard in the corridor.” The young man nodded and left through the same window as he had entered.

There are three branches of medicine. One is called “doctor medicine” or “scientific medicine”. Scientific doctors try to observe sickness, look for logical pattern, and then find out how the human body works. From there they figure out what treatments may work. This kind of medicine is believed to date from the 4th century BC. Although nowadays it is successful, in the ancient this approach(方法) probably did not cure many patients.
The second kind of medicine is called “natural cures” or “folk medicine”, in which less educated people try to cure sickness with various herbs. These folk healers also use observation and logic, but they are not so aware of it. They try things until they find something that seems to work, and then they keep doing that. Folk medicine flourished(興起) long before the development of scientific medicine and was more successful in ancient times.
The third kind is called “health spas” or “faith healing”. Sometimes this may be as simple as touching the holy man and being immediately healed. Other times, a magician may make you a magic charm, or say a spell(咒語), to cure you. Some religious groups organize healing shrines(圣壇) for the sick. In these places people rest, get plenty of sleep, eat healthy food, drink water instead of wine, and exercise in various ways. They also talk to the priests(牧師) and pray to the gods. If you are feeling depressed or you have been working too hard, going to these places may be just the right thing to make you feel better.
1. Doctor medicine_________.
2. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT used in health
spas?
A. Magic power B. Various herbs
C. Religious faith D. A healthy life style
3. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
4.The author’s primary purpose in this passage is to_______________.
compare the educational background of three different types of patients

科目：高中英語 來源：2007年普通高等學校招生全國統一考試英語卷（山東） 題型：其他題
閱讀表達（共5 小題；每小題3分，滿分15 分）
閱讀下面的短文，并根據短文后的要求答題（請注意問題后的字數要求）。
An American friend of mine who was high up in a big corporation had worked out a way of handling a flood of e-mails before most of us had even heard of the concept. If any information he was sent was vital enough, his lack of response could ensure the sender rang him up. If the sender wasn’t important enough to have his private number, the communication couldn’t be that important. My friend is now even more senior in the same company, so the strategy must work.
Almost every week now, there seems to be a report suggesting that we are all being driven crazy by the bother of e-mail. If this is the case, it’s only because we haven’t developed an appropriate discrimination in dealing with it.
______. Firstly, you junk anything with an exclamation mark or a string of capital letters, or from any address you don’t recognize or feel confident about.
Secondly, e-mails don’t all have to be answered. Because e-mailing is so easy, there’s a tendency for correspondence to carry on for ever, but it is permissible to stop an endless discussion or to accept a point of information sent by a colleague without acknowledging it.
Thirdly, a reply e-mail doesn’t have to be the same length as the original. We all have e-mail pals who send long, chatty e-mails, which are nice to receive, but who then expect an equally long reply. The charm of e-mail can consist in the simple, incomplete sentence, totally regardless of the format of the letter sent by post. You are perfectly within the bounds of politeness in responding to a marathon e-mail with a brief reply.
76. Which sentence in the passage it the closed in meaning to the following one?
The possible existence of annoyance results from our inability to sort out e-mails.
_______________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________
77. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with a proper sentence. (within 10 words)
____________________________________________________________
78. What advice is given in the last paragraph? (within 10 words)
_______________________________________________________
79. For what purpose does the author mention his American friend in Paragraph 1?
(within 10 words)
_____________________________________________________________
80. Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.
________________________________________________________________
