29、rself.CAmerican eating is funny. They eat almost everything with a fork, and it appears that holding a knife in ones right hand longer than a few seconds is considered to be against good table manners. The system is that if it is absolutely necessary to use a knife, a person should take the fork in

30、his left hand, and cut off a piece of meat or whatever it is in the normal manner. Then he puts the knife down, transfers the fork to his right hand, and only then does he transport the food to his mouth. This is clearly ludicrous(滑稽可笑的), but it is considered good manners.There are several results o

31、f this system. First, if it is not absolutely necessary to use a knife, Americans dont use one, because obviously this greatly complicates things, and you will therefore see them trying to cut things like potatoes, fish and even bacon with a fork. Second, towards the end of a course, since only one

32、implement(器具) is being used, food has to be chased around the plate with the forkand for the last mouthful the thumb has to be used to keep the food in place, although one is not supposed to do this.Third, tables are generally laid with one knife and two forks, the outside fork being for the salad.

33、There is no need for foreign visitors to follow the American custom and try to eat the salad with only a fork, but if you do use your knife, remember to save it for the meat course. Even dessert(甜點) is eaten with a fork if at all possible, and the spoon you see by your dessert is meant to be for cof

34、fee (but if you use it for your dessert no one will say anything).44. What is the main idea of the passage?A. How to use forks in America.B. Table manners in America.C. What are the good manners in America?D. The rules to follow when you are in America.45. What is considered good behavior on America

35、n tables?A. People use their left hands to hold forks and eat with their left hands.B. People eat with forks.C. People hold the fork with their left hands while cutting meat but transfer it to their right hands when eating the meat.D. People eat without a knife.46. It can be inferred from the passag

36、e that _.A. it is considered good manners to eat with the left hand holding the forkB. Americans probably avoid using knives during the mealC. it is considered impolite to only use forks to catch foodD. knife is very important on American tables47. Which of the following is TRUE according to the pas

37、sage？A. The spoon is limited to be for coffee on American tables.B. One must not eat American food with the help of his thumb.C. How to use knives and forks is not strictly required in America.D. The inside fork is for desserts.DOf the 754 sites on the United Nations World Heritage(文化遺產) List(WHL),2

38、9 are located in China, the third-largest number in one country.This was made known by Zhang Xinsheng, the chairman of the Chinese National Commission for the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural(文化的) Organization (UNESCO),at a press conference on Tuesday.According to Zhang,582 of the

39、 WHL sites are places of cultural heritage,149 are places of natural heritage, and 23 are mixed. Of Chinas 29 sites,21 are cultural,4 natural and 4 mixed. The most famous ones are the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, Mount Taishan, Mount Huangshan and Jiuzhaigou.In 1972,UNESCO adopted the Convention

40、Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage.

41、cal sites.For the purposes of the Convention, sites of natural heritage include natural features consisting of physical and biological formations, geological and precisely delineated(劃定的) areas, as well as the natural sites or precisely delineated natural areas.48.The purpose of the passage is to sh

The “standard” retirement age varies from country to country. _51_ However, for a long time, people have got into an a

45、rgument about whether the age of retirement should be increased or reduced in their own countries. 52 Many people think that older employees have a large amount of knowledge and experience which can be lost to a business or organization if they are made to retire. Besides, older employees are often

46、extremely faithful employees and are more willing to implement(執行，落實） company policies than the young. 53 To force someone to resign or retire at 60 or 65 indicates that the society does not value the input of these people and that effectively their useful life is over.Allowing old people to work in

47、definitely(無限地）, however, is not always a good policy. Some people took the strong view that age alone is no guarantee of ability. Many young employees have more experience or skills than older staff, who may have been stuck in one area for most of their working lives. Having compulsory retirement a

48、llows new ideas in an organization. On the other hand, older people should be rewarded by society for their lifes labor by being given generous pensions and the freedom to enjoy leisure. They can have time to do whatever they like. 54 With many young people unemployed or frustrated in low-level posi

49、tions, there are often calls to compulsorily retire older workers. 55 In my opinion, giving workers more choices over their retirement age will benefit society and the individual.A.It is more important to give them the right to voice their opinions.B.A more important point is regarding the attitudes

50、 in society to old people.C.However, this can affect the older individuals freedomand rightto work.D.But it is generally between 50 and 70, according to the latest statistics, 2011.E.Old people will feel not respected by society if they are forced to resign from their job.F. That means that they can

51、 have their own plans or roles and achieve their retirement goals.G.There are several arguments for allowing older people to continue working as long as they are able. 第卷（非選擇題 共35分）第三部分 寫作（共兩節，滿分35分）第1節 短文改錯（共10小題；每小題1分，滿分10分）假定英語課上老師要求同桌之間交換修改作文，請你修改你同桌寫的以下作文。文中共有10處語言錯誤，每句中最多有兩處。錯誤涉及一個單詞的增加、刪除或修改。
