第2题：
While traveling abroad(在国外), Mr. Jackson Frank ran short of money. So he wrote to his brother, asking for $500. "Send the money by telegram," he wrote, "to the Fisher Bank in P…" After a week he began calling at the Fisher Bank. He showed his passport(护照). "Nothing has come for you," he was told. This went on for two weeks, and Mr. Frank got very worried. He sent a telegram to his brother, asking where the money was. There was no reply, and no money arrived for him.
In the fourth week Mr. Frank was arrested for failing to pay hotel bill. His passport was taken from him. He tried to explain the problem, but no one believed him. He was sent to prison for sixty days. When he came out, he went immediately to the Fisher Bank. The Clerk(职员)he spoke to was a new man. "Have you received $500 for me?" he asked, "My name is Jackson Frank." The clerk checked his books. "Yes, Mr. Jackson, it's here. It came by telegram - let me see - oh, more than two months ago.
"We wondered where you were." He showed Mr. Frank the order. The order(汇单)read: "Pay Mr. Frank Jackson the sum of $500 …"
"But my name is Jackson Frank, not Frank Jackson."
"Oh, that's all right, sir. It was in our books under the letter 'J', but it's your money."
The clerk laughed. "A human mistake, sir! We're all human beings, aren't we? And so we all make mistakes. A family name like Frank sounds strange to me."

第13题：
Disraeli was as sparkling a letter-writer as he was a novelist. His letters show that his capacity to observed was matched only by his ability to describe, and they are excited by his over-developed sense of self-dramatization as well as by his enduring sense of the greatness of his own destiny. He skims through these pages like some gorgeous bird of paradise, spreading his multi-colored feathers and never pausing long enough to become boring.
As early as 1830, when only 26, he is found advising Benjamin Austin to carefully conserve his letters for posterity. Fortunately Austin and others followed his advicA. As a result over 10,000 letters in his own hand have survived, quite apart from dictated letters and other notes and documents. Disraeli rarely kept a diary, and poured his thoughts, desires and reflections into his correspondencA.
What treasures there lie in store! We leave him 1837 with his longed-for election to Parliament, but ahead come into view the high peaks of his career with the twin mountains of his two premierships and his friendship with the Queen. Lord Esher maintained that the letters between Disraeli and Queen Victoria had largely been destroyed, but this was not so. A new, bright and searching light will eventually shine on that extraordinary political and romantic friendship.
41. This passage appears to be written by _______.
A a friend of Disraeli's
B a contemporary of Disraeli's
C a literary critic
D an autobiographer
42. ...his capacity to observe was matched only by his ability to describa... means
A he was as accomplished an observer as he was a descriptive writer
B his capacity to observe and his ability to describe were unrivalled
C he was capable of adapting descriptions to fit his observations
D his observations and descriptions reflected his own personal ambitions
43. During his lifetime Disraeli pursued the career of _______.
A a correspondent
B a politician
C a novelist
D a consultant
44. Even as a young man Disraeli realized that one day his letters would be _______.
A antiquated
B well-connected
C destroyed
D widely-read

问答题Directions: Suppose you are Li Ming. One of your roommates is getting addicted to smoking. You are going to write a letter, trying to persuade him to quit. Your letter should be persuasive. It may be advisable to include the following points in your letter. A letter to a roommate 1) His smoking is becoming a problem for all his roommates. 2) He is ruining his health. 3) Smoking harms the health of others around him, too. 4) He can quit if he is determined. You should write about 100 words. Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. Use “Li Ming” instead. You do not need to write the address. Now write the letter on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
Dear Tom,
I am writing this letter to tell you how I think about your smoking.
I know you are a very kind and easy-going roommate, but your newly developed habit of smoking has really become a headache for all of us. Smoking is a bad habit because it can harm your health and ruin your life.
Smoking would make you spend much money, especially so when you are addicted to it. The cigarette contains nicotine which can hurt your lungs and windpipes directly. It is widely proved that a large percentage of people who suffer from lung cancer are smokers.
Smoking hurts not only your health, but also that of others around you. When smoking in the dormitory, you exhale the fog which fill into the air and this fog is inhaled by the people around you. Air is important to our health. But the air becomes more unbearable due to the butts left in the ashtray. We have never had fresh air since you took up the habit.
I hope you could quit this bad habit. It is not difficult if you are determined to do it. Forming a new habit takes only 21 days.
Sincerely yours,
Li Ming
