3.CHonesty comes in many forms. First there’s self-honesty. Is what people see the real article or do you appear through smoke and mirrors? I find that if I try to be something I’m not , I feel unsure of myself and take out a part from my PBA(personal bank account ).I love how singer Judy Garland put it, “Always be a first-class version(版本) of yourself , instead of a second-class version of somebody else .”Then there’s honesty in our actions. Are you honest at school, with your parents , and with your boss ? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have, try being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel. Remember, you can’t do wrong and feel right. This story by Jeff is a good example of that:In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn’t do well. I was really good at it. I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass. I’d write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off.At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job. I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us. After a while I realized I shouldn’t do that anymore, because I wasn’t really helping them. They weren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder down the road. Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me.It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work. But , remember , every act of honesty is a deposit(储蓄)into your PBA and will build strength .49. The underlined part “appear through smoke and mirrors” in the first paragraph means “ ” .A. to be honestB. to be unrealC. to become clearD. to come from an imagined world

    Up in Smoke

    I began to smoke when I was in high school. In fact,I remember the evening I was at a girlfriend's house,and we were watching a movie一a terribly romantic movie.He(the hero of the movie)was in love,she(his lady)was beautiful,and they were both smoking. My friend had only two cigarettes from a pack in her mother's purse,and she gave one to me.It was my first time.
    My parents didn't care much. They both smoked,and my older brother did too. My mother told me that smokers don't grow tall,but I was already 5 '6"(taller than most of the boys in my class), so I was happy to hear that"fact".In school,the teachers talked against smoking,but the cigarette advertisements were so exciting. The men in the ads were so good-looking and so successful,and the women were well, they were beautiful and sophisticated(老于世故的).
    I read a book called How to Stop Smoking. The writer said that smoking wastes time,and that cigarettes cost a lot of money."So what?"I thought. The book didn't say that smoking can take away years of your life.But ten years later,everyone began to hear about the negative effects of cigarette smoke:lung disease,cancer,and heart problems.After that,there was a health warning on every pack of cigarettes.I didn't pay much attention to the reports and warnings.I felt healthy,and thought I was taking good care of myself.
    Then two events changed my mind.First,I started to cough,I thought it was just a cold,but it.didn't get better. Second,my brother got lung cancer. He got sicker and sicker. My brother and I used to smoke cigarettes together over twenty years ago,and we smoked our last cigarettes together the day before he died,I sat with him in his hospital room,and I decided to quit."NO more cigarettes,ever,"I said to myself.
    However,it was very hard to stop.Nicotine(尼古丁)is a drug;as a result,cigarettes cause a powerful addiction.I tried several times to quit on my own一wlthout success.I made excuses,I told myself:Smoking helps me keep my figure一I don,t gain weight when I smoke.Smoking not only relaxes me but it also helps me think clearly.I,m a free,liberated woman,I can smoke when I want to.
    Finally,I ran out of excuses一I might say my excuses went up in smoke.I joined the"Stop Smoking"program at the local hospital,which also ended up in failure.

    The writer decided to quit smoking partly because______.
    A:she could not afford any more cigarettes
    B:her doctor had advised her to do so
    C:her brother had given up smoking
    D:she had started to cough

    答案:D
    解析:
    题干意思为:作者如何开始吸烟显示了……的强大影响。通过对第一段的分析发现,作者吸烟主要是模仿电影人物,所以选项C正确。
    题干意思为:第二段中fact一词指代……根据第二段第三句中的taller than most of the boys in my class可知,作者很自豪,所以选择B。
    题干意思为:《如何戒烟》这本书……文中第三段:The book didn't say that smoking can take away years of your life.这本书并没有说吸烟能够使人寿命缩短。可以推断出作者对这本书并没有多大兴趣,所以选择B。
    题干意思为:作者决定戒烟的部分原因是……文中第四段:First, I started to cough, I thought it was just a cold, but it didn't get better.可以得出,这是部分原因,经过比较,只有D选项正确。
    题干意思为:作者发现戒烟很难是因为……第五段第一、二句:However, it was very hard to stop.Nicotine(尼古丁)is a drug; as a result, cigarettes cause a powerful addiction.然而,戒烟真的太难了。尼古丁就是毒品,吸烟能够上很大的瘾。可以得出A选项正确。

    D

    Recently


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    句意:去学校的路上我从自行车上摔了下来,幸运的是我没有受伤。本题考查副词的用法。从自行车上摔下来却没有受伤是一件很幸运的事情,所以luckily(幸运地)正确。suddenly突然地。politely有礼貌地。recently最近地。
