18、rassment. I enjoyed them, but I also felt they were too much for my small achievements.Not for my father. He did everything in a big way.

19、s I would be angry with him. Then came my 16th birthday. It was not a happy occasion. I was fat and had no boyfriend. And my well-meaning father furthered my suffering by giving me a party. As I entered the dining room, there on the table next to my cake was a huge bunch of flowers, bigger than any
20、before.I wanted to hide. Now everyone would think my father had sent flowers because I had no boyfriend to do it. Sweet 16, and I felt like crying. But my best friend, Jenny, whispered, “Boy, youre lucky to have a father like that.”As the years passed, other occasionsbirthdays, awards, graduationswe
21、re marked with Dads flowers. Those flowers symbolized his pride, and my success. As my fortunes grew, my fathers health became worse, but his gifts of flowers continued until he died. I covered his coffin with the largest, reddest roses I could find.Often during the dozen years since, I felt an urge

34、me for the holidays. As I slid into the back seat of the car, the warm intonations(语调) of the drivers accent washed over me in a familiar way. I learned that he was a recent West African immigrant with a few young children, working hard to provide for his family. I could relate: I am the daughter of
35、 two Ethiopian immigrants who made their share of sacrifices to ensure my success. I told him I was on a college break and headed home to visit my parents. Thats how he found out I went to Harvard. An approving eye glinted at me in the rearview window, and quickly, we crossed the boundaries of rider
36、 and driver. I became his daughter, all grown upthe product of his sacrifice. And then came the fateful question: “What do you study?” I answered “history and literature” and the pride in his voice faded, as I knew it might. I didnt even get to add “and African-American studies” before he cut in, hi
37、s voice thick with disappointment, “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?” Here I was, his daughter, wasting the biggest opportunity of her life. He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being
38、 generous)to make money and send money back home. The unspoken demand, made across generations, which my Uber driver laid out plainly, is simple: Fulfill your role in the narrative(故事) of upward mobility so your children can do the same.I used to feel anxious and backed into a corner by the question
39、ing, but now as a junior in college, Im grateful for their support more than anything. This holiday season, Ive promised myself I wont get annoyed at their inquiries. I wont defensively respond with “but I plan to go to law school!” when I get unrequested advice. Ill just smile and nod, and enjoy th
40、e warmth of the occasion.38. Why did the author feel warm at the drivers accent?A. The driver took her to the Boston airport.B. The author became the drivers daughter.C. The driver worked hard to provide for his family.D. The authors parents were also African immigrants.39. What disappointed the dri
41、ver？ A. The authors attitude towards him.B. The school that the author is attending.C. The authors major in history and literature.D. The authors interests in African-American studies.40. Why are immigrant kids expected to be doctors or lawyers?A. Their parents want them to move upward in society.B.
42、 Their parents are high-achieving as well.C. They have much more knowledge.D. They are very smart in general.41. How did the author react to the drivers questioning？A. Getting upset. B. Feeling satisfied.C. Defending herself. D. Appreciating his concern.DTime talks. It speaks more plainly than words
43、. Time communicates in many ways.Consider the different parts of the day, for example. The time of the day when something is done can give a special meaning to the event. It is not customary to telephone someone every early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, the time of the call
44、shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it is a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the United States, gue
45、sts tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But this 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
46、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 often arise between people from cultures that treat time differently. Promptness(准时) is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not p
47、rompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S., no one would think of keeping a business partner waiting for an hour; it would be too impolite. A person who is five minutes late is expected to make a short apology. This way of treating time is quite different from that
48、 of several other cultures. This helps to explain the unfortunate experience of a certain agriculturist from the United States, assigned to duty in another country. After a long delay, the agriculturist was finally agreed an appointment with the Minister of Agriculture. Arriving a little before the
49、appointed hour, the agriculturist waited. The hour came and passed. At this point he suggested to the secretary that perhaps the minister did not know he was waiting in the outer office. This gave him the feeling of having done something to solve the problem, but he had not. Twenty minutes passed, t
50、hen thirty, then forty-five. To an American, that is the beginning of the “insult period”. No matter what is said in apology, there is little that can remove the damage done by an hours wait in an outer office. Yet in the country where this story took place, a forty-five-minute waiting period was no
51、t unusual.In the West, particularly in the United States, people tend to think of time as something fixed in nature. As a rule, Americans think of time as a road stretching into the future, along which one progresses. The road has many sections, which are to be kept separate “one thing at a time”. P
52、eople who cannot plan events are not highly regarded. Thus, an American may feel angry when he has made an appointment with someone and then finds a lot of other things happening at the same time.Since time has such different meanings in different cultures, communication is often difficult. We will
53、understand each other a little better if we can keep this fact in mind.42. According to the passage, an announcement broadcast during class must be very important because _A. it is a customary time to make B. it makes everyone surprisedC. it requires immediate attentionD. it speaks more plainly than

We can learn from the passage that people will understand better if _A. they are concerned with the value of timeB. they know how to communicate with each otherC. they escape dealing with many things at one appointed timeD. th

57、l learn the hard way in majority of cases.It takes consistent time and effort to be successful in any area. However, People usually get discouraged when it takes more time than they thought it would. At this time, people refer only to people who have already achieved what you want to be, which most
58、people fail to do. Look at any successful person and youll notice one thing common in all of them. They took time to learn and mastered their skills like no one else. 47 Be brave to take the road less travelled. In our whole life, we always want to follow the same path that everyone suggests, do the
59、 same things everyone does, take the same career path everyone takes, wear the same clothes everyone wears, and hang out with the same people we work with. 48 But when you get bored of life, you will realize that you are not meant to do what everyone does and that your destiny is different from anyo
60、ne elses out there in the world. But the price you pay to realize this is high because it takes a great amount of courage to follow your own path.You dont have to live your life in a way society wants you to. 49 Parents sometimes force their children to select a career they dont want because other c
61、hildren have selected that career. Worst of all, people follow them without even asking. There is no harm in old rituals（惯例） and beliefs but when you pursue them before your interest, sooner or later youll realize that you should first do what you think is right. 50 However, if you are smart enough
