But an increasing number of Europeans are choosing to be so at an ever earlier age. This isn't the stuff of gloomy philosophical contemplations, but a fact of Europe's new economic landscape, embraced by sociologists, real­estate developers and ad executives alike. The shift away from family life to solo lifestyle, observes a French sociologist, is part of the “irresistible momentum of individualism” over the last century. The communications revolution, the shift from a business culture of stability to one of mobility and the mass entry of women into the workforce have greatly wreaked havoc on(擾亂) Europeans' private lives.Europe's new economic climate has largely fostered the trend towards independence. The current generation of home­aloners came of age during Europe's shift from social democracy to the sharper, more individualistic climate of American style capitalism. Raised in an era of privatization and increased consumer choice, today's tech­savvy(精通技術的) workers have embraced a free market in love as well as economics. Modern Europeans are rich enough to afford to live alone, and temperamentally independent enough to want to do so.Once upon a time, people who lived alone tended to be those on either side of marriagetwenty something professionals or widowed senior citizens. While pensioners, particularly elderly women, make up a large proportion of those living alone, the newest group of singles are high earners in their 30s and 40s who increasingly view living alone as a lifestyle choice. Living alone was conceived to be negativedark and cold, while being together suggested warmth and light. But then came along the idea of singles. They were young, beautiful, and strong! Now, young people want to live alone.The booming economy means people are working harder than ever. And that doesn't leave much room for relationships. Pimpi Arroyo, a 35­year­old composer who lives alone in a house in Paris, says he hasn't got time to get lonely because he has too much work. “I have deadlines which would make life with someone else fairly difficult.” Only an ideal woman would make him change his lifestyle, he says. Kaufmann, author of a recent book called The Single Woman and Prince Charming, thinks this fierce new individualism means that people expect more and more of mates, so relationships don't last longif they start at all. Eppendorf, a blond Berliner with a deep tan, teaches grade school in the mornings. In the afternoon she sunbathes or sleeps, resting up for going dancing. Just shy of 50, she says she'd never have wanted to do what her mother didgive up a career to raise a family. Instead, “I've always done what I wanted to do: live a self­determined life.”11More and more young Europeans remain single because _Athey are driven by an overwhelming sense of individualismBthey have entered the workforce at a much earlier ageCthey have embraced a business culture of stabilityDthey are pessimistic about their economic future12What is said about European society in the passage?AIt has fostered the trend towards small families.BIt is getting closer to American­style capitalism.CIt has limited consumer choice despite a free market.DIt is being threatened by irresistible privatization.13According to Paragraph 3, the newest group of singles are _Awarm and light­hearted Bon either side of marriageCnegative and gloomy Dhealthy and wealthy14The author quotes Eppendorf to show that _Asome modern women prefer a life of individual freedomBthe family is no longer the basic unit of society in present­day EuropeCsome professional people have too much work to do to feel lonelyDmost Europeans conceive living a single life as unacceptable15What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?ATo review the impact of women becoming high earners.BTo contemplate the philosophy underlying individualism.CTo examine the trend of young people living alone.DTo stress the rebuilding of personal relationships.BAmericans often plan social gatherings on short notice，so don't be surprised if you get invited to someone's home or to see a movie or baseball game without much warning.If the time is convenient for you，surely accept their invitation.But if you're busy，don't be afraid to decline the invitation. Perhaps suggesting a time would be better.Your host won't be shamed.Invitations are usually sent in person or over the telephone.The main exception(例外)is for some formal occasions，in which case a written invitation will be mailed.You would normally receive a written invitation to a wedding(婚禮)For a casual dinner invitation，don't arrive more than 5 minutes early，because your host may still be preparing for your visit.Arriving more than 10 minutes late is considered rude if very few people were invited.If many people were invited，it's OK to arrive a little late，even as much as half an hour late.For example，it's OK to arrive late for a party，for a potluck(家常便飯)dinner or for a social gathering inviting a large group of people.If you're invited for dinner，it's proper to bring the host a bottle of wine，a gift basket of fruit，a box of candy，or a bouquet(束)of flowers.Don't bring roses，as men often give roses to women on a date.If you wish to thank the host for his or her hospitality(好客)，it's right to call or send a brief written thank­you note the next day.16The passage is to tell us_.Ahow to accept Americans' invitationsBsomething about American social visitsCsomething about American business visitsDhow to make a living in America17The underlined word “decline” in the first paragraph most probably means “_”Aaccept BopposeCrefuse Dreceive18In America，invitations to a wedding are often sent _.Aby mail Bby faxCby e­mail Dover the telephone19If an American only invites you to his home for an informal supper at 7：30 pm, you'd better reach his house at _.A7：14 pm B7：35 pmC7：45 pm D7：55 pm20According to the passage，in America_.Aif you're invited to a family as a guest，you can stay as long as you pleaseBif you're invited for a party，you must always be on timeCif you're invited for dinner，you'd better bring some presentsDyou must make a call to show your thanks after you get home from the dinner.基礎寫作以下是東江的基本信息及相關報道?；拘畔ⅲ?1)地理：珠江的一個支流，發(fā)源于江西省，流經江西、廣東；(2)長度：約523公里；(3)資源：水產資源豐富，盛產各種魚類和藻類。相關報道：(1)東江被客家人稱作“母親河”，是香港及幾個城市居民的主要飲水資源；(2)目前，工業(yè)、飲用水需求逐年上升，任意排放污水，水質下降；(3)水資源形勢嚴峻，要節(jié)約用水，全力保證東江的水質。寫作內容根據(jù)以上信息寫一篇東江的介紹，內容包括：1東江的基本信息；2東江的相關報道。寫作要求只能用5個句子表達全部內容。評分標準句子結構準確，信息內容完整，篇章連貫。參考詞匯：藻類algae；客家人Hakka people_課時作業(yè)(二十二).1.others考查代詞。通過下文的描述可以看出，這里說的是通過幫助別人可以獲得幸福，所以用others，意思是：別人，其他人。第4空前有原詞復現(xiàn)。2a考查冠詞。獨自一人生活在一間小屋里，用不定冠詞表示泛指。3died考查動詞的時態(tài)。由句末的時間狀語years ago, 可以看出應該用一般過去時。4with考查介詞。with意思是：帶有，用，使用。5laughter考查詞形變化。語境為：生活中充滿了笑聲和愛。和and后的名詞love并列，用名詞形式。6noisily考查詞形變換。修飾謂語動詞talk作狀語，用副詞形式。7but考查邏輯關系。語境為：那個時候他們可能感到幸福，但是他們絕不會得到真正的幸福，因為已經失去了人格。上下文之間是轉折關系。8have lost考查動詞的時態(tài)。強調動作的結果，用現(xiàn)在完成時。9It考查代詞。指代上文的不可數(shù)名詞happiness，所以用it。10bringing考查非謂語動詞。作主語和后面的表語形式一致，用動名詞形式。.A文章主要介紹了隨著經濟的發(fā)展，歐洲越來越多的年輕人喜歡獨自生活。11A細節(jié)理解題。從文章第一段的but a fact of Europe's new economic landscape, embraced by sociologists, real­estate developers and ad executives alike.

Covering a length of 523 kilometres, it is home to a diversity of fishes and algae. Called Mother River by the Hakka people, it provides drinking water for residents not only in several cities along it but Hong Kong as well. With the fast development and booming population at present, the need for industrial water and drinking water is increasing every year, while the water quality is declining because waste water is discharged into the river at will. The serious situation of water resources requires people to save water and make every effort to ensure water quality in the Dongjiang/East River. 6
