  On November 19,1 863,Abraham Lincoln went to Gettysburg in Pennsylvania to speak at the National Soldiers Cemetery.The Civil War was still going on.There was much criticism of President Lincoln at the time.He was not at all popular he had been invited to speak at Gettys-burg only out of politeness.The principal speaker was to be EdwardEverett,a famous states-man and speaker of the day.He ever was a handsome man and very popular everywhere.
  It is said that Lincoln prepared his speech on the train while going to Gettysburg.Late that night,alone in his hotel room and tired out,he again worked briefly on the speech.The next day Everett spoke first.He spoke for an hour and 57 minutes.His speech was a perfect exam-ple of the rich oratory of the day.Then Linc01.n rose.The crowd of l5 000 people at first paid little attention to him.He spoke for only nine minutes.At the end there was little applause.LincoIn turned to a friend and remarked,“I have failed again.”On the train back to Washind-ton,he said sadly,“That speech was a flat failure.and the people are disappointed.”
  Some newspapers at first criticized the speech.But little by little as people read the speech they began to understand better.They began to appreciate its simplicity and its deep meaning.It was a speech which only Abraham Lincoln could have made.Today,every American school child learns Lincoln’S Gettysburg Address by heart.Now everyone thinks of it as one of the greatest speeches ever given in American history.

Robin Hood is a familiar figure to most of US.The outlaw who robbed the rich to give to the poor and dwelt with his band of merry followers in Sherwood Forest has long been celebrated in both prose and poetry.On stage and screen,he has fascinated countless generations.Yet behind that popular character lurks a mystery:Wh0,exactly,was Robin Hood?Did he exist at all?
  The evidence for a real,livin9,breathing Robin Hood is rather weak.Records show that in thirteenth.century,England there were a number of people who answered to his name or to something close to it.Yorkshire birth records note the arrival of a Robin Hood who apparently died in infancy.Also,of Yorkshire was Robyn Hode,a servant to King Edward Ⅱ.The man known as Robert Hude is remembered only through a now almost illegible name on a grave stone.In Sussex,there was also Gilbert Robynhod,a man whose name appears often in the local sheriffs records for nonpayment of debts.
  Despite careful searches of local records by historians,there is little connecting any of these men to the legendary Robin Hood.Still,there just may be a grain of truth in the legend of Robin and his merry band.
  In the thirteenth century,England certainly had its share of outlaws.Perhaps the most famous was Hereward the Wake,the last Angl0—Saxon chief to resist the Norman Conquest of 1066.HereWard and countless others rebelled against Norman rule and fled into the thick forests that carpeted the English countryside.
  Not surprisingly,their adventures formed the basis of numerous stories and songs in which the figure of Robin Hood consistently played a key role.Robin is presence in so many different songs and stories has led to the belief that he probably did exist,although perhaps not in,such heroic form.
  第16题 It was discovered in Yorkshire birth records that.
  A.Robin Hood was once a servant to King Edward II
  B.there was a Robin Hood who died when he was a small babv
  C.Robin Hood was a name commonly used in thirteenth—century England
  D.the name of Robin Hood appeared often in the local sheriffs records
  答案:B
  第17题 An outlaw iS a person.
  A.who robs the rich to give to the poor
  B.who has broken the laws and fled
  C.who rebels against the government
  D.who iS a hero who sacrificed for his COUntnr
  答案:B
  第18题 The historians searched the local record in an attempt t0.
  A.prove the truthfulness of Robin Hood story
  B.look for the birth place of Robin Hood
  C.establish connection between Robin Hood and Hereward the Wake
  D.disclose the person who created the legendary Robin Hood
  答案:A
  第19题 According to the passage,the legend of Robin Hood probably originated __________.
  A.during the Anglo-Saxon period B.under the rule of King Edward Ⅱ
  C.during the Norman Conquest of 1066 D.in the thirteenth century
  答案:D
  第20题 Which of the following can NOT be inferred from the passage?
  A.Robin Hood is a fascinating figure in British history.
  B.The popularity of Robin Hood has not died down.
  C.The legend of Robin Hood is a totally made.up one.
  D.People prefer to believe that Robin Hood did exist.
  答案:C

Expectations for personal relationships differ greatly across cultures.It is important to know that most AmericanS value close friendships,they also value privacy and independence.From an American perspective,to have privacy or to give someone privacy is considered posi-tive.Yet。when the word“privacy”is translated into other languages(e.g.Russian,Arabic,and Japanese).it has more of a negative meaning.(In these languages“privacy”means aloneness or loneliness.)Therefore,the American’s need for privacy is sometimes judged negatively by those who have not been raised with the value of individualism.some Americans are isolated from others because they have taken their independence and privacy to an extreme.Others simply like spending time alone or at least having the freedom to avoid socializing if they choose.
  In any true friendship,whatever the culture may be, a person is expected to show interest and concen in a friend’S serious problems.But how does one show this across cuhures?It is not possible to generalize about Americans because there are SO manv varieties of Americans.but it is possible to say that many foreigners or newcomers from different cultures have felt disappointed by Americans.A common occurrence is when an American does not Dhone or visit as much.as the foreigner expects.If someone from another culture is having a serious problem,Americans may say,“Let me know if there’s anything l.can do to help.”If the Americans do not receive.a specific request,they may feel that there’s nothing they can do.In this case.They may call every now and then to stay in touch.The friend from a different culture,on the other hand,may be expecting“sympathy calls or frequent visits,and may not hesitate to demon.strate a dependence on a friend.Many Americans arc uncomfortable whrn people become too dependent.
