四、阅读理解（本大题共30分）
(A)
Although English is not as old as Chinese, it is spoken by many people around the world every day.
English speakers are always making new words and we should be able to know where most words come from.
Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes from. Did you ever think about why
hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham (火腿)? About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe. They came from a big city in Germany called Hamburg. They did not speak good English ,but they are good at making food. When some Americans saw them eating round pieces of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. The Germans did not understand the question and answered,\We came from Hamburg.\One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round pieces of the beef like what the men from Hamburgers are sold in many countries around the world.
Whether this story is true or not, it certainly is interesting. Knowing why any word has a certain meaning
is interesting, too. The reason may be found in any large English dictionary. 1. According to the writer, English . A. is as old as Chinese B. is older than German C. is not as old as Chinese D. is very difficult to learn 2. Hamburg is .
A. a kind of food B. a round piece of beef C. the name of a village D. a city in Germany 3. According to the story, . A. few Americans like hamburgers B. hamburgers are made with beef C. hamburgers are made with ham.

(B)
Never try to work when you are very hungry. If you decide to do your homework right after school, you may want to have something to eat before getting to work. Always do your homework before you get too tired. Don't wait until very late in the evening, or the assignment will seem much harder than it really is.
Break your time into manageable period. If you have more than an hour's work, give yourself a break after an hour. On the other hand don't break it up so much that you can't get anything done. You should be able to work at least half an hour at a time without stopping.
Don't put it off until the last minute. If you put off doing your homework, you will have it on your mind, and you won't enjoy your free time so much. If you put it off until the end of the week or until right before a test, you will have too much catching up to do for you really to learn. A little bit each night, enough to keep up with what is happening each day at school, will take the fear out of tests and keep you on top of it all.
Do your homework at the same time every day. This will help you make it a habit----part of your daily routine（日常安排）.It will make it easier to do, and it will make your free time more enjoyable as well.
6. When someone is hungry, he'd better .
A. not work at all B. not to work hard C. not work too hard D. work as usual 7. The underlined word \ . A. work B. homework C. housework D. plan
8. If you do your homework very late in the evening, it will seem it really is. A. as easy as B. easier than C. as hard as D. more difficult than 9. If you put off doing your homework, .
A. it will be kept on your mind B. it will be much easier to do C. it will make you happy. D. it doesn't matter much 10. To do your homework at the same time every day .
A. will make it easier to do B. will make your free time more pleasant C. will help you form a good habit D. A, B, and C.
