1.Uncle Sam is a tall, thin man. He"s an older man with white hair and a white beard. He often wears a tall hat, a bow tie, and the stars and stripes of the American flag.
  Who is this strange, looking man? Would you believe that Uncle Sam is the U.S. government? But why do you call the U.S. government Uncle Sam?
  During the War of 1812, the U.S. government hired meat packers to provide meat to the army. One of these meat packers was a man named Samuel Wilson. Samuel was a friendly and fair man. Everyone liked him and called him Uncle Sam.
  Sam Wilson stamped the boxes of meat for the army with a large U.S. for United States. Some government inspectors came to look over Sam"s company.
  They asked a worker what the U.S. on the boxes stood for. As a joke, the worker answered that these letter stood for the name of his boss, Uncle Sam.
  The joke spread, and soldiers began saying that their food came from Uncle Sam. Before long, people called all things that came from the government "Uncle Sam", "Uncle Sam" became a nickname for the U.S. government.
  Soon there were drawings and cartoons of Uncle Sam in newspapers. In these early pictures, Uncle Sam was a young man. He wore stars and stripes, but his hair was dark and he had not beard. The beard was added when Abraham Lincoln was President. President Lincoln had a beard.

7.A hundred years ago, the game we now call football did not exist. American football started during a game between two colleges. The teams had got together to play what they called "football", but each team played by different rules. One team played what we now call soccer. The other played what we now call rugby (橄欖球).
  Both games had been invented a thousand years before. In the first kind of football game ever played, all the men from one village tried to kick a ball into another village. The men of the second village tried to kick the ball into the first. Hundreds of people joined in, running everywhere, running crops and knocking down fences. In time, people agreed on some rules to keep order, but many roles were left open to change. Different rules developed in different places.
  When the two colleges met to play football, each followed its own rules. They mixed the games together and invented a new game. A hundred years later we call that game American football.
  In what ways do you suppose the game we know now will have changed in another hundred years?

When the two colleges first met to play "football", the players followed ______.

A．the rules of soccer
B．the rules of rugby

D．college rules

8.

C．American football will have its own rules.
D．American football might see changes in the years to come.

13.Like the body, the memory improves with use. Unlike the body, the memory can improve with age.
  For many years, doctors have been studying the way the brain works. We all know that the brain has two sides, the left and the right. The right side controls the senses (seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting and smelling), and is the creative and imaginative side. The left side of the brain controls our logical thinking. It processes the information which comes in, and puts it into order, We call the left side the "educated" side of the brain and generally, in western societies, people have developed this side of the brain more than the fight side.
  Scientists believe that our brain will work much more efficiently if both the right side and the left side are developed equally. In many schools today, teachers try to educate the children in such a way that both sides of the brain are used. This can be done with logical subjects including mathematics and science as well as with creative subjects such as art and literature. The result achieved by students who are educated in this way is usually better than the result of students who are educated in a more traditional way. Traditional teaching tends to exercise the left side of the brain without paying very much attention to the development of the right side.
  great thinkers such as Bertand Russell the Philosopher, and Albert Einstein, the scientist, only in their work, but also in creative and imaginative activities. It was because of their many different interests in life that they were able to achieve the full development of both sides of their brain.
  As long as Einstein and Russell lived, their brains functioned efficiently. It was their bodies, finally, which could not go on any longer.

The body improves ______.

A．with age

16.

A．both sides of the brain are used equally
B．the left side is fully developed
C．scientists work on it

19.There is one thing that everyone wants more than anything else. Some people try to get it by making money. They think that when they have enough money to buy such things as houses, farms, and cars, they will have the one thing that everyone wants.
  Other people believe that if they know enough they will find this thing. They study all their lives in search of it. Still others think that if they have power, they will find this thing. They keep telling themselves: when I am a boss, I will no longer have to search for this thing.
  What is it that everyone wants more than anything else? What is it that all of us keep working and striving for each day? It is happiness.
  Happiness is a strange thing. It does not mean the same to all men. What will make one man happy may not make another man happy. Some men say that happiness comes from helping others; other men say that happiness comes from making life more pleasant for everyone. What do you mean when you say: "That makes me happy?"

25.Californian Michael Schwabe said goodbye to the gas pump two years ago. He leased an electric car. Schwabe says he gets more out of driving an electric car than just a charge.
  "With the price of gasoline and with the problems with clean air, it"s important we get electric vehicles out on the road."
  On California roads there are about two thousand electric cars. By 2003, ten percent of all new cars may be required to have zero emissions. This is a mandate automakers say it is way ahead of its time.
  Gloria Bergquist of the Alliance of Auto Manufacturers says, "The technology (for zero emissions) isn"t here yet; it still needs advancement in driving range to make it more appealing to a wider consumer audience".
  Automakers blame it on the batteries. Power runs out on most cars after about 70 miles. However, some cars can now go more than 100 miles on a charge. Batteries are expensive. Carmakers say there is nothing they can do about it.
  Tim Carmichael of the Clean Air Coalition says, "The automakers have not built a vehicle unless required to do so, so it"s very important for the state to stay committed to this program requiring automakers to build small amounts in beginning years and then the market will take off".

When did Michael Schwabe say goodbye to the gas pump?

A．Two days ago.
B．Two months ago.
C．Two years ago.
D．Ten years ago.

28.

A．1%.
B．5%.
C．10%.
D．100%.

29.
