举一反三
For most people, the word "fashion (时尚)" means "clothes". But people may ask the question, "What clothes are in fashion?" And they use the word "fashionable" in the same way.
"She was wearing a fashionable coat. His shirt was really a fashionable colour. "
But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs . . . and in languages.
Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will see that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from one of 1650. A fashionable man in 1780 looked very different from his grandson in 1860.
Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspapers, radios, telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours.

Do animals have a culture? What do we mean by “culture”? Recently social scientists have begun to ask if culture is found just in humans, or if some animals have a culture, too. When we speak of culture, we mean a way of life that a group of people have in common. Culture is the forms of behavior (行为) that help people to live together. It is also the forms of behavior that make one group of people different from another group.
Human beings use tools, cooperate(合作) with one another, and communicate with language. But these aspects(方面)of human behavior, or “culture”, can also be found in the lives of certain animals. Animals can make tools , for example. We used to think that the ability to use tools was the dividing line between human beings and other animals. Lately, however, we have found that this is not the case. Chimpanzees(黑猩猩) can not only use tools but actually make tools themselves. So it may be important for us to know that the line dividing us from animals is not as clear as we used to think.
小题1:According to the article, “culture” means_____.
A. the languages we learn
B. the good habits we share with each other
C. the forms of behavior we have in common
小题2:The traditional idea about dividing animal from human beings is that ______.
A. human beings can use tools
B. Human beings can depend on each other
C. human beings have the language to communicate
小题3:From the chimpanzees can use and make tools, we know____.
A. animal may have a culture like our own
B. animals can be as clever as human beings
C. animals have the ability to help human beings |
Every culture has a recognized (公认的) point when a child becomes an adult, when rules must be followed and tests passed.
In China, although teenagers can get their ID cards at 16, many only see themselves as an adult when they are 18. In the US, where everyone drives, the main step to the freedom of adult life is learning to drive. At 16, American teens take their driving test. When they have their license（证）, they drive into the grown-up world.
"Nobody wants to ride the cheese bus to school," said Eleanor Fulham, 17. "It"s like you"re not cool if you don"t have a car," she said.
According to a recent research, 41% of 16 to 19 year olds in the US own cars, up from 23% in 1985. Although, most of these cars are bought by parents, some teens get part-time jobs to help pay.
Not all families can afford cars for their children. In cities with undergrounds and limited(有限的) parking, some teenagers don"t want them. But in rich areas outside the city, if there are no undergrounds, and bicycles are more for fun than cars, it is strange for a teenager not to have a car.
But police say 16-year-olds have almost three times more accidents than 18 and 19-year-olds. This has made many parents stop before letting their kids drive. They need to wait until they are more experienced.
Julie Susiana, of Virginia, decided that her son Chad, 15, will wait until he is 17 to apply for his learner"s permit (许可)
Chad said he has accepted his parents" decision, although it has caused some laughing from his friends. "They say that I am unlucky," he said. "But I"d rather be alive than driving, and I don"t really trust my friends on the road either."
In China as more families get cars, more 18-year-olds learn to drive. Will this become a big step to becoming an adult?
小题1:16-year-old drivers have more accidents possibly because _______.| A．they want to show themselves off | | B．they are not experienced drivers | | C．older people always drive better | | D．they never drive carefully on the road |
小题2:Which may NOT be taken into consideration when deciding whether to buy a car?| A．How rich the family is. | | B．Whether the kid is old enough. | | C．What traffic condition there is around. | | D．Whether it"s practically needed. |
小题3:The passage mainly gives information about _______.| A．an American culture about teenagers" driving | | B．a change in the Chinese culture | | C．a cultural difference between America and China | | D．the relationship between driving and a person"s development |
小题4:Which may serve as the best title of the article?| A．Cars Helping You to Grow Up | B．Driving into the Grown-up World | | C．Teenagers" Driving in America | D．Recognized Point of Becoming an Adult |
