Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I've found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors－silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.It's fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks (人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn't want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.1．According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?3A. Because they are traditional and safe. B. Because they are convenient and inexpensive.C. Because they are colorful and available.D. Because they are fast and environment friendly.2．The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended ________.A. to ride it for funB. to use it for transportC. to experience local cultureD. to improve his riding skills3．How did the author feel about his street crossing?A. It was boring. B. It was difficult.C. It was lively. D. It was wonderful.4．Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience?A. The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.B. The author was annoyed by the air while riding.C. The author was praised by the other bikers.D. The author took great pleasure in biking.[文章大意] 作者从美国来到中国，认识到中国是一个自行车王国，为了体验中国的文化，他买了一辆自行车并且开始了他难忘的体验之旅。1．B。考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.”可知，自行车在中国仍然很受欢迎的原因是自行车方便而且不贵。2．C。考查细节理解。根据第三段的第一句“Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle.”可知 C 项正确。3．B。考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段的第一句“Crossing the streets was the biggest problem.”可知，作者认为过马路很困难。4．D。考查推理判断。文章最后一段中的“amazing, wonderful, on top of the world”和“feel alive”等说明骑自行车给作者带来了很多快乐。【2015 高考复习】阅读理解A survey sponsored by an international temporary service agency found that U．S.executives believe that people with a sense of humour do better at their jobs，compared with those who have little or no sense of humour.In fact，a whopping 96 percent of those surveyed said people with a sense of humour do better.The survey went on to point out that the results suggest that a sense of humour may help 4light­hearted employees keep their jobs during tough times.And，what's more，it may propel them up the corporate ladder past their humourless colleagues.Why？It seems that those with a sense of humour are better communicators and better team players.Studies have shown that happy workers are more productive.In fact，a researcher at California State University found that humour could help the employees to release tension.Consequently，they can concentrate on their work more efficiently.What's more，employees who enjoy interacting with their co­workers aren't as likely to be distracted，or absent from work.Research conducted by psychologist Dr Ashton Trice at Mary Baldwin College in Virginia showed that humour helps us think.When people feel stuck on important projects，they tend to feel angry or depressed.This negative mood can interfere with subsequent performance.According to Dr Trice's research，taking time out to laugh can help us to get rid of negative feelings and allow us to return to a task or move on to another project unaffected by past defeat.If humour is really this important，then why don't we use it more often on the job?Most likely，the main reason is that many people are unaware of the positive effects of humour in the workplace.They tend to think humour and laughter are unproductive or unprofessional，perhaps both.However，it is important to realize that some humour is inappropriate for the workplace，and that it is often used at wrong times.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇时文报道。管理者们认为，和那些没有幽默感的人相比，具有幽默感的人能把工作做得更好。比如，幽默的人富有合作意识，具有较高的工作效率等。20．Most people think a sense of humour can ________.A．help you to do your work betterB．make you have a rich lifeC．make you pleased with your workD．help you to make more friends答案 A [细节理解题。根据第一段可知，和没有或很少有幽默感的人相比，有幽默感的人能把工作做得更好。B、C 和 D 在意义上和幽默感没有联系，也和本文意思不符。]21．Which one of the following can describe a person with a sense of homour?A．Serious.
