A huge fire broke out on 2 September 1666 in London. The fire, known as the Great Fire of London, was the worst fire in the history of London. It burned down more than three quarters of the old city.
The fire started in the very early hours of Sunday morning in the house of the king’s baker. A strong wind blew the fire from the baker’s house into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
At that time, most of the buildings in London were made of wood, so it was easy for the fire to spread quickly. By eight o’clock, three hundred houses were on fire. By Monday, nearly a kilometre of the city was burning along the Thames River. On Tuesday, which was considered the worst day, the fire destroyed many well-known buildings, including the old St Paul’s Cathedral.
The fire burned until finally hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire were destroyed to create a firebreak. The fire then died out eventually with nothing left to burn.
4. Why is the fire of 1666 called the Great Fire of London
A. The fire broke out in the capital of England.
B. The fire was the worst fire in the history of London.
C. People in England will never forget the fire.

C
"Long time no see.” is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s e-mail, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect example of Chinglish.
Obviously, it is a word-by-word literal translation (直译) of the Chinese greeting with wrong English grammar! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting. I was too surprised to believe her. Her words were unbelievable at all. So I did research on . To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages containing “Long time no see.” Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language that Americans use daily. Interestingly, if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.
Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a worldwide famous Chinese detective (警探) named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius. “Long time no see.” was his symbol. Soon after Charlie Chan, “Long time no see.” became a popular expression in America thanks to the popularity of these movies.
Some scholars compare America to a huge melting pot. All kinds of cultures are mixed in the pot together, and they change the color and taste of each other. Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed pot.
You can have some examples from other countries, such as pizza from Italian, sushi from Japanese, and déjà vu from French etc. There is a long list! Since Americans admire Chinese culture more and more nowadays, I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future. In this way, the American’s melting pot keeps adding richness.
8. What did the writer himself feel surprised at
A. The Chinglish expression “Long time no see.”
B. So many literal translations of the expressions used in America.
C. “Long time no see.” is used as a standard American English greeting.
D. Finding out Americans use the expression every day.
9. What do the underlined words “melting pot” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Confucius’s words. B. Culture mixture.
C. A kind of cooked dish. D. American changing cultures.
10. What can be inferred from the passage
A. Detectives translated the phrase “Long time no see.”
B. Cultures cannot be changed in the huge melting pot.
C. The huge melting pot greatly affects all kinds of languages.
D. Hollywood made “Long time no see.” popular.
11. What is the main idea of the passage
A. American English keeps being enriched by different cultures.
B. Americans have a strong interest in Chinese culture.
C. Some American expressions can be used in China.
D. Some Chinese expressions are introduced into English.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了美国英语不断被不同的文化所丰富的社会现象。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting. I was too surprised to believe her. Her words were unbelievable at all. (后来,我的朋友告诉我,这是一种标准的美国人问候语。我太惊讶以至于不敢相信她。她的话简直令人难以置信)”可知,作者感到惊讶的是“Long time no see.”被作为了标准的美式英语问候语。故选C项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“Some scholars compare America to a huge melting pot. All kinds of cultures are mixed in the pot together, and they change the color and taste of each other.(一些学者把美国比作一个巨大的melting pot。各种各样的文化在锅里混合在一起,它们改变了彼此的颜色和味道)”可知,一些学者把美国文化比喻一个巨大的文化混合物,猜测划线单词melting pot为“文化的混合物”的意思,与Culture mixture意思一致。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a worldwide famous Chinese detective (警探) named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius. “Long time no see.” was his symbol. Soon after Charlie Chan, “Long time no see.” became a popular expression in America thanks to the popularity of these movies.(20世纪30年代,好莱坞电影制作人成功地在大银幕上塑造了一位世界著名的中国侦探“陈查理”。陈探长喜欢引用孔子的话来教授美国人一些中国智慧。“好久不见了。”是他的象征。在陈查理之后不久,由于这些电影的流行,“好久不见”在美国成了一个流行的表达方式)”可推知,好莱坞让“Long time no see.”流行了起来。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Some scholars compare America to a huge melting pot. All kinds of cultures are mixed in the pot together, and they change the color and taste of each other.

D
Research has found that adults today have fewer friends than they did in the 1980s, and that more people say they have no one to discuss important stuff with.
Play the violin. Not just play it—and sing along. A new study suggests that singing is an effective way to make new friends because it helps us bond quickly with others.
For the study, led by Eiluned Pearce, Ph. D. at Oxford University, researchers looked at participants aged 18 to 83 in adult education classes organized by the Workers’ Education Association in the UK. Eighty-four participants were enrolled in one of four singing classes; 51 participants were enrolled in one of two creative crafts classes or a creative writing class.
Over a period of seven months, the classes went weekly. During the first, third, and final months, researchers asked participants to tell how close they felt to their classmates. Results showed something surprising. Although participants in all the classes felt closer to their classmates by the study’s end, participants in the singing classes developed that closeness much more quickly.
As for why exactly singing leads to fast group bonding, the researchers say one possible reason is that everyone does it at the same pare that with creative writing or crafting, where everyone is working on an individual project. Another possible cause, according to the researchers, is that singing involves muscular effort, which causes the release of certain molecules (分子) that can make us happier and more willing to cooperate.
The point here is that singing can be a great icebreaker among large groups of strangers, which can lead to individual friendships down the line. “Really close relationships still depend on communication between individuals or much smaller groups,” Pearce said in a release(发布会), “but this study shows singing can start the bonding process.”
12 What has research found about today’s adults
A. They don’t really want friends.
B. They are looking for new friends.
C. They have fewer friends than before.
D. They like discussing important things with friends.
13. The researchers didn’t expect that ______.
A. creative writing classes help people bond
B. the participants would become closer to others
C. so many participants would take singing classes
D. participants in the singing classes would bond so quickly
14 Paragraph 5 shows that reasons for the results of the research are ______.
A. very cheering B. very interesting
C. a bit confusing D. not completely possible
15. According to Eiluned Pearce, really close relationships ______.
A. rely on individual communication B. depend on one’s attitude
C. often occur in large groups D. are easy to develop
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了研究发现很多人一起唱歌时能够很容易建立友谊关系。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Research has found that adults today have fewer friends than they did in the 1980s”(研究发现,如今成年人的朋友比二十世纪八十年代少)可知,跟从前相比,现在成年人的朋友少。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“A new study suggests that singing is an effective way to make new friends because it helps us bond quickly with others.”(一项新的研究表明,唱歌是结交新朋友的一种有效方式,因为它能帮助我们迅速与他人建立联系。)可知,研究人员没有想到的是,唱歌能帮助人们迅速和其他人建立联系,参加歌唱课的人会很快结合在一起。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“one possible reason is that everyone does it at the same time”(一个可能的原因是每个人都在同一时间唱歌)以及“Another possible cause, according to the researchers, is that singing involves muscular effort”(根据研究人员,另一个可能的原因是唱歌涉及肌肉力量)可知,对于研究结果的原因只是猜测,不能完全肯定。故选D项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Really close relationships still depend on communication between individuals or much smaller groups.”(真正亲密的关系仍然取决于个人或小得多的群体之间的沟通。)可知,真正亲密的关系取决于个人之间的交流。故选A项。

A huge fire broke out on 2 September 1666 in London. The fire known as the Great Fire of London, was the worst fire in the history of London. It burned down more than three quarters of the old city.
The fire started in the very early hours of Sunday morning in the house of the king’s baker. A strong wind blew the fire from the baker’s house into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
At that time, most of the buildings in London were made of wood, so it was easy for the fire to spread quickly. By eight o’clock, three hundred houses were on fire. By Monday, nearly a kilometre of the city was burning along the Thames River. On Tuesday, which was considered the worst day, the fire destroyed many well-known buildings, including the old St Paul’s Cathedral.
The fire burned until finally hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire were destroyed to create a firebreak. The fire then died out eventually with nothing left to burn.
4. Why is the fire of 1666 called the Great Fire of London
A. The fire broke out in the capital of England.
B. The fire was the worst fire in the history of London.
C. People in England will never forget the fire.
D. The fire spread fast into Thames Street.
5. Where did the fire break out
A. In the house of the king’s baker.
B. In Thames Street.
C. In the house of the baker’s neighbour.
D. In St Paul’s Cathedral.
6. Why did the fire spread quickly
A. It started in a baker’s house.
B. It broke out on a Sunday morning.
C. A hotel was next to the baker’s house.
D. Most of the buildings in London were wooden.
7. What was destroyed in the fire
A. The old St Paul’s Cathedral.
B. Hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire.
C. Hundreds of wooden houses.
D. All of the above.

"Long time no see.” is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s e-mail, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect example of Chinglish.
Obviously, it is a word-by-word literal translation (直译) of the Chinese greeting with wrong English grammar! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting. I was too surprised to believe her. Her words were unbelievable at all. So I did research on . To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages containing “Long time no see.” Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language that Americans use daily. Interestingly, if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.
Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a worldwide famous Chinese detective (警探) named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius. “Long time no see.” was his symbol. Soon after Charlie Chan, “Long time no see.” became a popular expression in America thanks to the popularity of these movies.
Some scholars compare America to a huge melting pot. All kinds of cultures are mixed in the pot together, and they change the color and taste of each other. Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed pot.
You can have some examples from other countries, such as pizza from Italian, sushi from Japanese, and déjà vu from French etc. There is a long list! Since Americans admire Chinese culture more and more nowadays, I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future. In this way, the American’s melting pot keeps adding richness.
8. What did the writer himself feel surprised at
A. The Chinglish expression “Long time no see.”
B. So many literal translations of the expressions used in America.
C. “Long time no see.” is used as a standard American English greeting.
D. Finding out Americans use the expression every day.
9. What do the underlined words “melting pot” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Confucius’s words. B. Culture mixture.
C A kind of cooked dish. D. American changing cultures.
10. What can be inferred from the passage
A. Detectives translated the phrase “Long time no see.”
B. Cultures cannot be changed in the huge melting pot.
C. The huge melting pot greatly affects all kinds of languages.
D. Hollywood made “Long time no see.” popular.
11. What is the main idea of the passage
A. American English keeps being enriched by different cultures.
B. Americans have a strong interest in Chinese culture.
C. Some American expressions can be used in China.
D. Some Chinese expressions are introduced into English.
D
Research has found that adults today have fewer friends than they did in the 1980s, and that more people say they have no one to discuss important stuff with.
Play the violin. Not just play it—and sing along. A new study suggests that singing is an effective way to make new friends because it helps us bond quickly with others.
For the study, led by Eiluned Pearce, Ph. D. at Oxford University, researchers looked at participants aged 18 to 83 in adult education classes organized by the Workers’ Education Association in the UK. Eighty-four participants were enrolled in one of four singing classes; 51 participants were enrolled in one of two creative crafts classes or a creative writing class.
Over a period of seven months, the classes went weekly. During the first, third, and final months, researchers asked participants to tell how close they felt to their classmates. Results showed something surprising. Although participants in all the classes felt closer to their classmates by the study’s end, participants in the singing classes developed that closeness much more quickly.
As for why exactly singing leads to fast group bonding, the researchers say one possible reason is that everyone does it at the same pare that with creative writing or crafting, where everyone is working on an individual project. Another possible cause, according to the researchers, is that singing involves muscular effort, which causes the release of certain molecules (分子) that can make us happier and more willing to cooperate.
The point here is that singing can be a great icebreaker among large groups of strangers, which can lead to individual friendships down the line. “Really close relationships still depend on communication between individuals or much smaller groups,” Pearce said in a release(发布会), “but this study shows singing can start the bonding process.”
12. What has research found about today’s adults
A. They don’t really want friends.
B. They are looking for new friends.
C. They have fewer friends than before.
D. They like discussing important things with friends.
13. The researchers didn’t expect that ______.
A. creative writing classes help people bond
B. the participants would become closer to others
C. so many participants would take singing classes
D. participants in the singing classes would bond so quickly
14. Paragraph 5 shows that reasons for the results of the research are ______.
A. very cheering B. very interesting
C. a bit confusing D. not completely possible
15. According to Eiluned Pearce, really close relationships ______.
A. rely on individual communication B. depend on one’s attitude
C. often occur in large groups D. are easy to develop
