【解析】本文對耶魯一個博物館的各項規(guī)定做了簡要說明和介紹。首先列出了博物館的開放時間和收費標準，接著針對參觀者可能關(guān)心的各個事項進行了說明，例如，參觀者如何解決午餐、是否可以攝影、志愿者免費講解的時間安排等。

【1】考察細節(jié)理解，由 “Admission Fees：$ 5.00—Children ages 3 through 18”內(nèi)容可知，3-18歲的孩子收費為5美元，故選B。

【2】考察細節(jié)理解。由第二段內(nèi)容可知，“There is no canteen or lunchroom at the Peabody(博物館內(nèi)沒有餐廳)”，排除C、D。同時第二段說，參觀者可以在當?shù)夭蛷d或者博物館附近的草坪吃午餐，故選A。

【3】考察細節(jié)推斷。由第三段可知，“在展覽館內(nèi)允許僅由個人使用的攝影，但在The Ancient Age中任何時候都不允許攝影”，據(jù)此推斷The Ancient Age很有可能是其中一個展覽館。而其他選項，“一本書”、“一段錄像”、“一本雜志”都沒有在文中提及。故選D。

【4】考察細節(jié)理解。由第三段“在展覽館內(nèi)允許僅由個人使用的攝影”可知A錯誤。B選項，Admission Fee中規(guī)定“持ID卡的大學生收費5美元”，由最后一段“Admission is free to any individual with a valid Yale ID. A Museum pass will give you $ 5 off each admission”可知，持耶魯ID可以免除5美元費用，因此說耶魯?shù)膶W生可以免費入場，因此B錯誤。C選項由第五段可知，僅在6月至9月，每周四下午博物館對個人免費，并不是所有的周四下午都免費，因此C錯誤。D選項由第四段可知，Highlights Tours僅在每周六日提供，因此參觀者無法在工作日享受這項服務(wù)，因此D正確。

【題目】Remembering names is an important social skill. Here are some ways to master it.

Recite and repeat in conversation.

When you hear a person’s name，repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.

Ask the other person to recite and repeat.

You can let other people help you remember their names. After you’ve been introduced to someone，ask that person to spell the name mad pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you’re making to learn their names.

Admit you don’t know.

Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy if you say. “I’m working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?”

Use associations.

Link each person yon meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example，you could make a mental note:“Vicki Cheng -- tall, black hair.” To reinforce your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.

Limit the number of new names you learn at one time.

When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.

Go early.

Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. That's fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others—an automatic review for you.

【1】How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names?

A. They will be moved. B. They will be annoyed.

C. They will be delighted. D. They will be discouraged.

【2】When you meet a group of people, it is better to remember __

A. all their names B. a couple of names first

C. just their last names D. as many names as possible

【3】What does the text mainly tell us?

A. Tips on an important social skill.

B. Importance of attending parties.

C. How to make use of associations.

D. How to recite and repeat names.

【題目】閱讀下列短文，選出最佳選項。

When I was about ten years old, I was walking down the street with my mother. She stopped to speak to Mr. Lee. I knew I could see Mr. Lee any time around the neighborhood, so I didn’t pay any attention to him. After we passed Mr. Lee, my mother stopped me and said something that has stuck with me from that day until now. She said seriously, “You let that be the last time you’ve ever walked by somebody and not opened up your mouth to speak, because even a dog will wag its tail when it passes you on the street.” Mother’s words sound simple, but it’s been a guidepost for me and the foundation of who I am.

It’s not just something I believe in; it’s a way of life. I believe that every person deserves to feel someone acknowledge their presence, no matter how humble (卑微) they may be.

At work, I always said hello to the founder of the company and ask him how our business was doing. But I also spoke to the people who cleaned the buildings and asked how their children were doing. After a few years of greeting the founder, I had the courage to ask him for a meeting. We had a great talk. At a certain point I asked him how far he thought I could go in his company. He said, “If you want to, you can get all the way to this seat.”

I’ve become vice president, but it hasn’t changed the way I approach people. I still follow my mother’s advice. I speak to everyone I see, no matter where I am. I’ve learned that speaking to people creates a pathway into their world, and it allows them to come into mine, too.

【1】What did the author do when he met Mr. Lee?

A. He talked with somebody else.

B. He was attracted by a dog.

C. He greeted him politely.

D. He ignored him.

【2】What kind of person is the author’s mother?

A. Optimistic. B. Kind-hearted.

C. Strict. D. Open-minded.

【3】How did the company founder reply to the author?

A. He inspired him. B. He played a joke.

C. He invited him to coffee. D. He gave him the seat.

【4】What does the author think of saying hello to people?

A. It’s a way to show sympathy to people.

B. It can build connections with others.

C. It’s a must to become a president.

D. It can bring him what he wants.

I’m tired and covered in dust. I’ve been digging all day and I’ll be doing the same tomorrow. Sound awful, doesn’t it ? But I’ve never had so many fun in my life. As an archaeology student, I have already knew something about the Qin Tomb and the terracotta warriors. Most Chinese children can tell you Qin Shihuang was the emperor first unified China. He was a brilliant ruler, and he was also a cruel man who killed thousands of people. When he became the king of the state, he immediately ordered workers to construct an underground tomb for him, which is said to contain great treasures. But, the actual entrance to the tomb has ever been found, nor has the tomb been opened. There are ancient descriptions of crossbows hiding at the tomb’s entrance. It’s said that if everyone steps across the entrance, the crossbows will fire.

SHANGHAI-The Huachen Group, which has put 83 million yuan in the development of the e-commerce market since its official registration late last year, recently held a meeting in Shanghai to show the use of its newly opened tourism business payment network. The network aims to serve tourists from all over the world, but especially from Europe and the United States where credit cards are popularly used. After opening the www.chinaecnet.com website, netizens can get information about hotels and tourism services on tourism page. Hotels and services can be reserved and payments made through credit cards. The network opened in February in Beijing.

SYDNEY-The Sydney Olympic flame will travel underwater on Australia’s Great Barrier Reef during the torch relay following a successful test.

Scuba diver Wendy Craig, a marine biologist, will carry the torch on a three-to-four-minute underwater journey at Agincourt Reef on June 27, creating Olympic history, organizers said yesterday.

Burning at 2000 degrees, the torch is expected to remain alight three metres underwater because of a special kind of technology which creates a ―fierce flame“ -too powerful to be drowned out by water.” Charles Tegner, managing director of torch creator, said the flame would burn like a flare from oxygen-producing chemicals.

BEIJING-The election of a new leader in Taiwan can not change the fact that Taiwan is a part of Chinese territory.“Taiwan Independence”in whatever form will never be allowed, according to a statesman of China’s central government. ―“We should listen to what the new leader in Taiwan says and watch what he does. We will observe where he will lead cross-Straits relations. We are willing to exchange views on cross-Straits relations and peaceful reunification with all parties, organizations and personages in Taiwan who favor the one China principle”, says the statesman, which was released by the Taiwan Affairs Office of the CPC Central Committee.

HAIKOU-Customs officers in Haikou, capital of South China’s Hainan Province, recently stopped a boat loaded with 781 cases of foreign-brand cigarettes being smuggled(走私)into China. The cigarettes are estimated to be worth more than 1.8 million yuan, said a customs discovered the smuggling boat as they were going around the northern sea area of Yangpu Port.

The smuggled cigarettes cases, packed into two containers, were disguised to avoid being examined. The boat was registered in the coastal city of Xiamen in East China’s Fujian Province. All eight suspects aboard the boat were kept by the police in Haikou.
