二、阅读理解

认真阅读下列两篇短文，每篇短文后有5个问题，根据短文的内容从A、B、 C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。错选、多选或未选均无分。(本大题共10小题，每小题2分，共20分)

11.Passage OneIn the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U. S. A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended (发送）only three or four days before the party date.But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently, promptness (准时) is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U. S. no one would think of keeping a business friend waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late is expected to make a short apology.“The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00p.m." Here “attached”means_______.

A.take
B.told
C.given
D.bought

12. Supposing one wants to make a telephone call at midnight, this would mean _______.

A.the matter is less important
B.the matter is somewhat important
C.the matter is not important
D.it is a matter of life and death

13. According to this passage, time plays an important role in_______.

A.social life
B.private life
C.communications
D.transmission

14. The best title for this passage is_______.

A.“The Voices of Time”
B.“The Saving of Time”
C.“The Importance of an Announcement”
D.“Time and Tide Wait for No Man”

15. According to the passage, the author of the article may agree with which of the following statements?

A.It is appropriate to send your invitation cards three or four days before the party date in the U. S.
B.It may be appropriate to send your invitation cards three or four days before the party date in some cultures.
C.It is best for one to make telephone calls at night because it costs much less.
D.If one is less than 5 minutes late, he has to make a short apology.

16.Passage TwoHow we look and how we appear to others probably worries us more when we are in our teens or early twenties than at any other time in our life. Few of us are content to ourselves as we are, and few are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion.Most fashion magazines or TV advertisements try to persuade us that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner. If we do, they tell us, we will be able to meet new people with confidence and deal with every situation confidently and without embarrassment (窘迫).Changing fashion, of course, does not apply just to dress. A barber today does not cut a boy's hair in the same way as he used to, and girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grandmothers did. The advertisers show us the latest fashionable styles and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in case our friends think we are odd or dull.What causes fashions to change? Sometimes convenience or practical necessity (痛求）or just the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion. Take hats for example. In cold climates, early buildings were cold inside, so people wore hats indoors as well as outside. In recent times, the late President Kennedy caused a depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats: more American men followed his example.There is also a cyclical (周期循环的）pattern in fashion. In the 1920s in Europe and America, short skirts became fashionable. After World War Two, they dropped to ankle length. Then they got shorter and shorter until the miniskirt was in fashion. After a few more years, skirts became longer again.Today, society is much freer and easier than it used to be. It is no longer necessary to dress like everyone else. Within reason, you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of the way you should because it is the fashion. The popularity of jeans and the “untidy”look seems to be a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashion of the top fashion houses.At the same time, appearance is still important in certain circumstances and then we must choose our clothes carefully. It would be foolish to go to an interview for a job in a law firm wearing jeans and a sweater; and it would be discourteous (无礼貌) to visit some distinguished scholar looking as if we were going to the beach or a night club. However, you need never feel depressed if you don't look like the latest fashion photo. Look around you and you'll see that no one else does either!The author thinks that people are_______.

A. satisfied with their appearance
B. concerned about appearance in old age
C. far from neglecting what is in fashion
D. reluctant to follow the trends in fashion

17. Fashion magazines and TV advertisements seem to link fashion to_______.

A.confidence in life
B.personal dress
C.individual hair style
D.personal future

18. Causes of fashions are_______.

A.uniform
B.easy
C.unknown
D.often inexplicable (无法解释)

19. Present-day society is much freer and easier because it emphasizes_______.

A.uniformity
B.formality C . informality
C.individuality

110. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A.Care about appearance in informal situations.
B.Care about appearance in formal situations.
C.Ignoring appearance in informal situations.
D.Ignoring appearance in all situations.
