At the 1893 Columbian Exposition, a World Fair held in Chicago, chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was displayed. It caught the eye of M.S. Hershey, who saw the potential for chocolate. He installed chocolate machinery in his factory in Lancaster, and produced his first chocolate bars in 1894.

Other Americans began mixing in other materials to make up new candy bars throughout the end of the 1890's and the early 1900's. But it was World War Ⅰ that really brought attention to the candy bar.

The U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide 20 to 40 pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases. The blocks were cut into smaller pieces and distributed to American soldiers in Europe. Eventually the task of making smaller pieces was turned back to the manufacturers.

By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home, the American candy bar business was assured. Why? Because the returning soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same. As a result, from that time on and through the 1920's, candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States, and as many as 40,000 different candy bars appeared on the scene.

The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia, Boston, and New York. The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar, corn syrup, and

milk were easily available. Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.What is this passage mainly about?

4.20. This article __ more attention to the problem of cultural conflicts.

6.Passage ThreeAs recently as three decades ago,many Americans believed that using credit was an unwise anddangerous way to pay for what they bought.Some even thought that owing money to a store or acredit company was something to be ashamed of.Good citizens,they believed,always bought what they wanted with real money and they paid the full price immediately.Today,however,all that has changed.Credit,as some observers have noted,has become away of life in the United States.More and more Americans now are depending on those small piecesof plastic,credit cards,to pay for large purchases such as televisions,record players or furniture.Many people today would consider it unusual not to use a credit card to pay for a costly restaurant dinner,a hotel room or an airline trip.And there are some situations in which Americans must have credit cards.If they want the temporary use of a car,for example,they first must give the car rental company the number of their credit card.That number is considered a guarantee that they will returnthe car and pay for using it.Credit cards offer two major services to Americans.First of all,they are easier and safer tocarry than large amounts of money.Second,they permit people to borrow,to have the immediate pleasure of owning something,even if they do not have enough money to pay for it at the time.With credit cards people pay for goods or services at the end of each month instead of when they buy them.And when the time does come to pay,most credit cards offer people a choice.They can pay all of what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually between 5 and 10 percent of what they owe.44.What do Americans feel about using credit cards nowadays according to the passage?

7.Passage FiveClaude-Oscar Monet ( 1840 -- 1926 ) was a French artist and a leading member of the Impressionist group of painters. Born in Paris, Monet spent his childhood in Le Havre. There he met a local artist, Eugene Boudin. Who encouraged him to become a landscape painter.　　In 1859, Monet went to Paris to study at the Academie Suisse. Between 1860 and 1862, Monet served in the army in Algeria ( 阿尔及利亚 ). He returned to Paris where he met most of the major artists of the era. In 1870, Monet married Camille Doncieux. To escape the Franco-Prnssian war,they moved to London Back to France, they settled at Argenteuil, a boating centre on the Seine (塞纳河 ) which drew many other Impressionist painters. Working from nature was a particular symbol of the Impressionist movement, and one that Monet valued, reflecting in his paintings the ever-changing impact of light and weather conditions.　　In 1872,he visited Le Havre where he painted "An Impression,Sunrise". When exhibited in 1874, part of its title was used by a critic to label the whole movement "Impressionism".　　Monet's wife died in 1879,and he set up home with Alice Hoschede, the wife of one of his most important sponsors. During the 1880s, Monet traveled through France painting a variety of landscapes. He gradually became better known and for the last 30 years of his life he was regarded as the greatest of the Impressionists.　　From 1890 he began to paint a series (系列 ) of pictures of one subject, including "Haystacks" "Rouen Cathedral" and "Waterlilies". The latter were painted in the fine garden Monet created at his house at Giverny, where he lived from 1883 on. He painted them over and over again,most significantly in a series especially for a museum in Paris.What do we know about Monet's life since 1890？

10.根据以下材料，回答44-47题 The intelligence test used most often today are based on the work of a Frenchman，Alfred Binet．In l905，Binet Was asked by the French Ministry of Education to develop a way to identify those childtIin French schools who were too“mentally deficient(不足的)”to benefit from ordinary schooling andwho needed special education．The tests had to distinguish those who were merely behind in schoodfrom those who were actually mentally deficient． The items that Binet and his colleague Theophile Simon included on the test were chosen on the basis of their ideas about intelligence．Binet and Simon believed intelligence includes such abilitiesas understanding the meaning of words；solving problems，and making commonsense judgements.Two other important assumptions also shaped Binet’s and Simon’s work：(1)that children with moreintelligence will do better in school and(2)that older children have a greater ability than youngerchildren． Binet’S first test consisted of t }lirty tasks．They were simple things most children learn as a result oftheir everyday experiences．The tasks were arranged in groups．according to age．Binet decided whichtasks were appropriate for a given age group by giving them first to a large number of children of differentages．If more than half of the children of a given age passed a test，it was considered appropriate for thatage group.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

Passage OneWoman nabbed for a DUI at same crash spotWed May 21,2:17 AM ET TRUCKEE,Calif.-Call it drunken driving deja vu(记忆幻觉).For the second time in five months,a 23-year-old California woman has been arrested after she crashed her car while driving under the influence(DUI)at the exact same spot north of Lake Tahoe.

12.Social customs and ways of behaving change．Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable．Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite behaviour for a man to smoke on the street．No man who thought of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smoking when a lady was in a room. 　　Customs are also different from country to country．Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn't it matter? What about table manner? Should you use both hands when you are eating? 　　The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs．For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time．Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans．Promptness is important both in England and in America．That is, if a dinner invitation is for 7 o'clock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay. 　　The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable -- especially if they are your guests．There is an old story about a man who gave a dinner party．When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife．The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way．It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.[单选题] According to the text, the best host

Sport is very popular in England,In other words lots of English people like the idea of sport.A lot watch sport on TV.But the number who take part in sport is quite small.On the whole English people prefer to be fat rather than thin.

The most popular sport in England is football.Football is played on Saturday afternoon in most towns and the supporters of a certain team will travel from one end of the Country to the other to see their team play.There are four divisions(级别）of the footballleague.Not surprisingly the best teams are in the first division.But the best supportersare often in the fourth division.You have to be a good supporter to watch the fourth division football!

Many other sports are also played in England,such as golf,in which you try to knocka ball into a hole;basketball,in which you try to get a ball through a net;tennis,in whichyou try to hit a ball so that your opponent(对手）can not hit it."As you see,if the ball had not been invented,there would have been no sport.

Actually,that is not quite true.s Athletics(田径）isn't played with a ball;nor horseracing.Perhaps that is why they are not as popular as football!3.Why do many English people not take part in sport?（）
