单选题Sleepless at Night
It was a normal summer night. Humidity (湿气) hung in the thick air.
I couldn"t go to sleep, partly because of my cold and partly because of my expectations for the next day. My mum had said that tomorrow was going to be a surprise.
Sweat stuck to my aching body. Finally, I gathered enough strength to sit up. I looked out of my small window into the night. There was a big bright moon hanging in the sky, giving off a magic light.
I couldn"t stand the pressure anymore, so I did what I always do to make myself feel better. I went to the bathroom and picked up my toothbrush and toothpaste. I cleaned my teeth as if there was no tomorrow. Back and forth, up and down.
Then I walked downstairs to look for some signs of movement, some life. Gladiator, my cat, frightened me as he meowed (喵喵的唱出) his sad song. He was on the old orange couch (长沙发), sitting up on his front legs, waiting for something to happen. He looked at me as if to say, "I"m lonely, pet me. I need a good hug (紧抱)." Even the couch begged me to sit on it.
In one movement I settled down onto the soft couch. This couch represented my parents" marriage, my birth, and hundreds of other little events.
As I held Gladiator, my heart started beating heavily. My mind was flooded with questions. What"s life? Am I really alive? Are you listening to me? Every time I moved my hand down Gladiator"s body, I had a new thought; each touch sang a different song.
I forgot all about the heat and the next day"s surprise. The atmosphere was so full of warmth and silence that I sank into its arms. Falling asleep with the big cat in my arms, felt all my worries slowly move away.

Marriage Advertisements in
India Every Sunday morning millions of Indians
settle down with a cup of tea and special weekend issues of their newspapers,
just as Americans do. But here, with the marriage season approaching, many of
them quickly to a Sunday feature that is particularly Indian — the columns of
marriage advertisements in which young people look for husbands and wives. This
is relatively(相关地)modern change in the age-old custom of the arranged marriage.
The thousands of advertisements published each week increasingly reflect social
changes that coming to this traditional society. For example, although women are
still described in terms of appearance, or skill in "the wifely arts,"
information about her earning power is entering more and more of the
advertisements. This reflects the arrival in India of the working wife.
Divorce, which used to be almost unheard of in India, is
sometimes now mentioned in the advertisements as in the case of a woman whose
advertisement in New Delhi newspaper explained that had been "the innocent
party" when her marriage broke up. Because the custom of the
dowry(嫁妆)(marriage payment) is now illegal(违法的), some advertisements
say "no dowry", or "simple marriage", which means the same thing. However, the
fathers of many bridegrooms still require it. In a land where
light skin is often regarded as socially preferable, many also require that a
woman have a "wheat-color" complexion(面色) or that a man be "tall, fair and
handsome". Advertisements are placed and eagerly read by a wide
range of people in the upper classes, mostly in cities. Many of them receive
dozens of answers. "There's nothing embarrassing about it, " explained a
Calcutta businessman advertising a son-in-law. "It's just another way of
broadening the contacts and increases the possibility of doing the contacts and
increasing the possibilities of doing the best one for one's daughter."
Because of high unemployment and a generally poor standard of
living here, one of the best attractions a marriage advertisement can offer is a
permit to live abroad, especially in Canada or the United States. A person who
has one can get what he wants. One recent Sunday in Madras, for
example, a Punjabi engineer living in San Francisco advertised for a "beautiful
slim bride with lovely features knowing music and dance. " And a man whose
advertisement said that he held an American immigration permit was able to say,
only girls from rich, well-connected families need apply.

单选题American Sports
The United States is a sports-loving nation. Sports in America take a variety of forms: organized competitive struggles, which draw huge crowds to cheer their favorite team to victory; athletic games, played for recreation anywhere sufficient space is found; and hunting and fishing. Most sports are seasonal, so that what is happening in sports depends upon the time of year. Some sports are called spectator sports, as the number of spectators greatly exceeds the number playing in the game.
Baseball is the most popular sport in the U.S. It is played throughout the spring and summer, and professional baseball teams play well into the fall. Although no other game is exactly like baseball, perhaps the one most nearly like it is the English game of cricket.
Football is the most popular sport in the fall. The game originated as a college sport more than 75 years ago. It is still played by almost every college and university in the country, and the football stadiums of some of the largest universities seat as many as 80,000 people. The game is not the same as European football or soccer. In American football there are 11 players on each team, and they are dressed in padded uniforms and helmets because the game is rough and injuries are likely to occur.
Basketball is the winter sport in American schools and colleges. Like football, basketball originated in the U.S. and is not popular in other countries. Many Americans prefer it to football because it is played in- doors throughout the winter and because it is a faster game. It is a very popular game with high schools, and in more than 20 states, state-wide high school matches are held yearly.
Other spectator sports include wrestling, boxing, and horse racing. Although horse-racing fans call themselves sportsmen, the accuracy of the term is questionable, as only the jockeys who ride the horses in the races can be considered athletes. The so-called sportsmen are the spectators, who do "not assemble" primarily to see the horses race, but to bet upon the outcome of each race. Gambling is the attraction of horse racing.
