oung people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience. However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear. After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more。 1. 對(duì)于這個(gè)消息我感到很驚訝。 (keep… away) _______________________________________________________________ 3. 我不得不把它們從我衣服上刷掉。 (look for) _______________________________________________________________ 六、閱讀表達(dá): 閱讀下面的短文,按要求完成短文后的題目( 10 分) In the past twenty years, riding bicycles has bee more and more popular among people of all ages. 3 Bicycles have long played an important part in the lives of American young people. But today an even greater number of adults cycle along roadsides and bicycle paths(自行車(chē)專(zhuān)用道 ). These new riders are often trying to bee fit or lose weight. They have found that bicycling is a pleasant way to stay healthy. This is certainly good for health. But it has also brought some problems. With all these added people on the road, bicycle safety has bee a matter of real importance. Bicycle safety is mostly a matter of mon sense. People should ride only on bicycle paths where they will not be badly hurt. There are also a number of rules that riders should follow, especially when riding on streets or highways. Bicyclists should never ride against the traffic, nor should they carry other people on their bicycles. They are also supposed to ride in single line on busy streets and to walk bicycles across the busy intersections (交叉路口 ) . 4 By following these rules, bicycle riders will not only stay healthy but also be safe. In one recent year, the National Safety Council reported that 34 thousand bicycle riders were hurt in highway accidents. In that same year, another six hundred riders were killed. Since the introduction of crash helmets (頭盔 ) in 1980, the number of injuries (傷者 ) and deaths from bicycling accidents had gone down. Today, more and more riders realize the dangers of bicycling. They are wearing helmets and paying closer attention to cycling rules.
