M: Some of these books aren't so old, though. See？ This novel was published only six years ago. It cost seventy-five cents. W: Hey! Look at this! M: What？ Are you getting interested in nineteenth-century plays all of a sudden？ W: No. Look at the signature. Someone gave this book as a present, and wrote a note on the inside of the front cover. It's dated 1856. Maybe it's worth something. M: Everything on that shelf is worth fifty cents. W: But if this is the signature of someone who is well-known, it might bring a lot more. I hear William Shakespeare's signature is worth about a million dollars. M: Oh？ I can hardly read what the one says. Who wrote it？ W: The name looks like "Harold Dickinson". Wasn't he a politician or something？ I'm going to buy this book and see if I can find a name like that in the library. M: Good luck. Your book of plays may make you rich, but I'll bet my seventy-five cents novel is a better buy. Where is this conversation taking place？ A．In a classroom. B．In a library. C．At a secondhand bookstore. D．In a museum.

A、another B、other thing C、others D、the other

If you're ever in a bookstore or department store, it's interesting to hear how the same salesperson talks to different people. There're other interesting places to listen to conversations too. I think, and one place that I've found is on bus trips. People often talk to each other as if no one else were there. I guess they think people can't hear their conversations. Recently I was on a bus, and I was listening to a conversation of two people behind me. I can't really say I was listening. I guess it would have been hard not to hear it. it was amusing to listen to the two people, though, because they were playing a kind of language, uh, word game about states and state capitals. One person would say the name of the state, and the other person would say the name of the capital. It sounds like a kind of simple game that doesn't involve much language, and you wouldn't think that it would involve very much conversation, but actually this wasn't the case because they were playing this game. They continued to compliment one another and talk about how much they knew about history and how many of the other things that they could or couldn't remember about those places from their trips or from their reading. It was really kind of fun to listen to them. (30) A．Criticizing others on bus. B．Amusing people in pubic. C．Enjoying talking to people. D．Listening to people's in public.

A．their hands directing B．their body movements C．their ears D．their eyes and ears

One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life.In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and like, and often to continue the family jobs.In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose jobs different from those of their parents. In our society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do all the things that they were unable to do.Often, that is another cause of the gap between them.Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other. Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is the third cause of the gap between the generations.In a traditional culture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date.The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities.No doubt, the generation gap will continue in American life for some time to come. 1.The first paragraph tells us that ______.
