点击查看答案
Like every language, American English is full of special expressions, phrases that come from the day-to-day life of the people and develop in their own way．Our expression today is “to face the music”．
When someone says, “well, I guess I’ll have to face the music,” it does not mean he’s planning to go to the concert．It is something far less pleasant, like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this and did that, and why you didn’t do this or that．Sour music indeed, but it has to be faced At sometime or another, every one of us has had to face the music, especially as children．We can all remember father’s angry voice, “I want to talk to you．” and only because we did not obey him．What an unpleasant business it was!
The phrase “to face the music” is familiar to every American, young and old,It is at least 100 years old
．And where did this expression come from? The first explanation comes from the American novelist, James Fenimore Looper．He said, in 1851, that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on the stage．When they got their cue to go on, they often said, “Well, it’s time to face the music．” And that was exactly what they did — facing the orchestra which was just below them．And an actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of an audience that might be friendly or perhapshostile, especially if he forgot his lines．But he had to go out．If he did not, there would be no play．So the expression “to face the music” come to mean “having to go through something, no matter how unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no choice．”
Other explanations about the expression go back to the army．When the men faced an inspection by their leader, the soldiers would be worried about how well they looked
．Was their equipment clean, shinny enough to pass the inspection? Still the men had to go out and face the music of the band as well as the inspection．What else could they do?
- Another army explanation is more closely related to the idea of facing the results and accepting the responsibility for something that should not have been done．As, for example when a man is forced out of the army because he did something terrible, he is
- How many ways does the phrase “to face the music” comes from?
- A．1
- B．2
- C．3
- D．4

根据以下资料，回答{TSE}题。
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."
- Auto makers 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 Ca
- A．Two days ago．
- B．Two months ago．
- C．Two years ago．
- D．Ten years ago.

根据以下资料，回答10~13题。
We first think of the traditional or nuclear family．This is a two-generation family, the father and the mother and their own children．Most couples wanted to have four children, two boys, two girls.
Some nuclear families, however, may add one or more grandparents to come to live with them, that is three generations．This kind of family with grandparents, parents, and grandchildren is called an extended family．This family type was not very common during the later half of the twentieth century, but it's becoming more common now as an elderly grandparent moves in to live with a son or daughter．This is more possible now that American homes have become larger．What is interesting, however, is that after the grandchildren move out of the home and start their own families, this extended family shrinks back to a nuclear family, with just two generations again living together, a grandparent and parents, with the grandchildren coming only for occasional visits．
Now, the fatherless or motherless family is one kind of what we call a single-parent family．In the fatherless family it's just the mother and her children．As I said, this can be the result of the husband's death, of an unmarried mother, of a separation or divorce．There are also a growing number of motherless families--where the father raises the children, for any of the same reasons．A motherless family may also be fatherless, but still a family with one adult．This is becoming more common in the big cities where a grandmother will raise her daughter's children while the daughter goes elsewhere to work.
One other new kind of family is becoming increasingly more common．A single parent with one or more children will marry again．Perhaps the other parent is also a single parent．Together they will start what is called a blended family, which blends together or combines the children from two other families.
Who usually looks after the children in a both motherless and fatherless family in America?
- A．The children's aunt.
- B．The children's nursery or school．
- C．The children's grandmother.
- D．The children's neighbour.

- C．newspapers will cover more scientific research
- D．more and more people will watch TV
点击查看答案
“If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers．It is not that newspapers are a necessity．Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio．Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday．But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation．
The nature of what is news may change．What basically makes news is what affects our lives — the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same．I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though．It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic(基因) engineering．In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do — as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are．
It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home．In fact, I’m pretty sure that how it will happen in the future．You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read — sports and international news, et
C．
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media(媒体)．They actually feed off each other．Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happene
D．What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air．And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen．
What is the best title for the passage?
- A．The Best Way to Get News
