　　Father’s Day is a fairly new celebration in the British calendar compared with Mother’s Day, which has been a very popular and well celebrated festival in the UK for a very long time.

　　Father’s Day was first celebrated by Americans (1) it was inspired by the actions of a man named William Smart. He was a veteran of the US Civil War and his wife (2) away giving birth to their sixth child. He (3) six children alone without remarrying, which was undoubtedly (4) back in those days.

　　His daughter, Sonora Dodd, (5) when she was an adult what her father had sacrificed for his (6) . It was in the early 1900s and she was actually (7) one day, listening to a sermon on (8). She thought there should (9) be a Father’s Day celebration.

　　And so the (10) was born, on the third Sunday every June, close to the anniversary of Sonora’s father’s death. Britain took the idea of Father’s Day from the American celebration and it has been celebrated (11) since the 1970s.

　　Father’s Day is never quite such a big commercial event (12) Mother’ s Day is, probably because it hasn’t been in (13) for so long. But what do British people do for Father’s Day? Well, most people would buy their fathers a card. The card would probably have nice message in it (14) what a great Dad their father is. Some people do buy presents as well.

　　(15) gifts for Dads are probably ties, chocolates or socks because there are things that Dads can (16) use even if they don’t want them. In the run-up to Father’s Day, or indeed Mother’s Day, there will be advertisements on TV giving (17) ideas of CDs or gadgets(小玩意) we can buy. Card shops will be full of mugs or pens and similar goods with “ World’s Greatest Dad”(18) on them.

　　Some families(19) do things together to celebrate Father’s Day like going for a meal. As a special treat, British people might give their Dad a bit of a rest,(20) him a cup of tea, or even wash his car and mow the lawn to make him feel really appreciate.

　　、閱讀理解

　　It was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics.

　　In recent years, many writers have begun to speak the 'decline of class' and 'classless society' in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.

　　But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratification.

　　One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice, Most people said this accent sounded 'educated' and 'soft'. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional（地區的）city accents. These accents were seen as 'common' and 'ugly'. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.

　　In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song 'Common People' puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may 'want to live like common people' they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.

　　21.A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain ________.

　　A. it is time to end class distinction

　　B. most people belong to middle class

　　C. it is easy to recognize a person’s class

　　D. people regard themselves socially different

　　22.The word stratification in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.

　　A. variety

　　B. most people belong to middle class

　　C. authority

　　D. qualification

　　23.The study in the US showed that BBC English was regarded as _________.

　　A. regional

　　B. educated

　　C. prejudiced

　　D. unattractive

　　24.British attitudes towards accent _________.

　　A. have a long tradition

　　B. are based on regional status

　　C. are shared by the Americans

　　D. have changed in recent years

　　25.What is the main idea of the passage?

　　A. The middle class is expanding

　　B. A person’s accent reflects his class

　　C. Class is a key part of British society

　　D. Each class has unique characteristics.

　　As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remember less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.

　　In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood thatthe computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.

　　In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夾). Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location (位置) better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive memory (交互記憶)".

　　According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.

　　26.The passage begins with two questions to ______.

　　A. introduce the main topic

　　B. show the author's altitude

　　C. describe how to use the Interne.

　　D. explain how to store information

　　27.What can we learn about the first experiment?

　　A. Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.

　　B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.

　　C. The first group did not try to remember the formation.

　　D. The second group did not understand the information.

　　28.In transactive memory, people ______.

　　A. keep the information in mind

　　B. change the quantity of information

　　C. organize information like a computer

　　D. remember how to find the information

　　29.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?

　　A. Weare using memory differently.

　　B. We arebecoming more intelligent.

　　C. We have poorer memories than before

　　. D. We need a better way to access information.
