    Open Letter to an Editor

    I had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently---one who works for you. In fact, he's one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.

    Your reporter gave me a copy of his resume (简历) and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues (问题), approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I'm sure you would hate to lose him. Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He has a great assignment (分工), and said you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you've given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.

    So why is he looking for a way out?

    He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.

    The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, when it will be in, where it can play, and what the budget is.

    He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he's doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for your paper. That's what you want for him, too, isn't it?

    So your reporter has set me thinking.

    Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists---everyone--is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can't do it, they'll find someone who can.

    60. What does the writer think of the reporter?

    A. Optimistic.

    B. Imaginative.

    C. Ambitious.

    Four days passed, but no one came to see his father. The boy thought that there was noman to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening.

    The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A man was standing at the door and said,“Where is your father?” The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper.He could not find it.He suddenly remembered he had burnt it, so he shouted, “No more. ”

  • 第6题:

    Passage Five

    Most famous people have some unusual story associated with their names. Casanova, for example, was a legend in his own time. He was the epitome of the gallant adventurer and lover. However, he spent thirteen years of his life as a librarian!

    Thomas Edison, the brilliant inventor, was deaf from the age of twelve. The young Edison's hearing loss was long believed to have been caused when he tried to catch a moving train and a conductor grabbed him by the ears to pull him on board. Edison himself liked to tell this story. No one is really sure how he did lose his hearing.

    Great writers and artists often require various types of inspirational warm-up before they create. Rudyard Kipling could not write unless his pen was filled with black ink, and only black ink. Ludwig van Beethoven poured icy cold water over his head before he composed his music. He felt that the cold water would refresh his brain. The author Charles Dickens always faced north when working or sleeping. Tycho Brahe, an important Danish astronomer, had his nose shot off in a duel with a Danish nobleman in 1566. He replaced it with another nose made of gold. President James Garfield could simultaneously write Latin with one hand and Greek with the other.

    52. This passage is about famous ______.

    A. scientists

    B. personalities

    C. composers

    D. leaders


    正确答案:B

    12._________
    A:hoped
    B:pretended
    C:dreamed
    D:looked forward

    答案:C
    解析:
    根据句意,“每次骨折似乎总是发生在做运动时”,应当选用动词do。practise “练习”,后面应跟某一项具体的训练,而不是sport,所以正确答案为C。
    play the part of...为固定搭配,意为“扮演一个……的角色”,其他三项均不合适。
    联系上下文,根据句意,“在影片制作过程中”,所以应当用during。
    根据句意,“Harrelson在影片制作过程中不断地抱怨……”,而且后面的动词complain用的是ing形式,因此动词keep“连续,不断”最为恰当。continue后加动词ing 形式一般表示在停顿后重新开始、继续,carry一般后面跟介词on,表示“进行某项事务”,insist 表示“坚决主张”,不合句意,所以选A。
    联系上下文,因为是影片中的打斗场景,所以这里scenes是正确答案。
    be keen on为固定搭配,表示“对……感兴趣,对……热衷”,interest后面配介词in, enthusiastic后面配介词of。
    联系上下文,作者要表达的是“最终他还是被他的搭档说服了”,副词eventu-ally放在动词persuade之前,lastly表示“最后一点,最后”,“at the end”一般放在段落的最后,表示“最后”。
    根据句意,“当他意识到……是全心全意投意入进来时,他开始后悔自己要打斗的决定”,显然是对手非常认真地对待这场打斗,所以C项opponent是正确答案。
    so...that…固定搭配,意为“太……以至于”,根据句意,“ Harrelson如此重重地打在Banderas的脸上,以至于居然打破了 Banderas的鼻子”,其他选项都不适合。
    固定搭配take a risk,表示“冒险”。
    联系上下文,根据句意,“他记起在他的故乡马拉加进行的一场足球比赛”, 是因为鼻子骨折这件事促使他想起了故乡的那次比赛,remind表示“提醒”,符合句意。remember表示“自然想起,记起”不合句意。
    根据句意和后面的介词of,显然,“他一直梦想成为一名足球明星”,dream 是正确答案。pretend“假装”,后面跟介词to,不合句意;look forward表示“向往”,后面跟介词 to,不合句意。
    固定搭配take up sth.,表示“开始从事某事”,根据句意,作者要表达的是 “我决定开始演戏”,因此A项up是正确答案。
    联系上下文,Banderas显然把它看成是另外一种比赛,所以只有D项an-other符合句意。
    词组football pitch,表示“足球场”。前面由介词on引导,后面一定是场地,也就是足球场,而不是match“比赛”。court表示“网球场”,course表示“跑道”,均不符合句意。

    Lawrence Curry

    When I tell people my name,they always ask me if I'm related to Lawrence Curry,the novelist,and when I say,yes,he was my great-uncle,they always want to know what he was like. "We've read all his books,"they say,"but please tell us what he was really like."When I described him,as I knew him,they go disappointed.It seems that they find it difficult to accept such a great figure could have had such an ordinary character.
    My great-uncle was tall,with a long thin body.When he walked,he moved stiffly,with his arms clamped against his sides,looking like nothing so much as a pair of scissors.When I knew him,his hair as quite white,though it was supposed to have been yellow when he was young. His eyes were blue and deep set and had an anxious look about them as if he found the world a puzzling place.This expression of anxiety,which arose from nothing more than short-sight一he refused to wear glasses一inspire the protective instincts of his lady admirers,much to the irritation my great-aunt who thought all women were fools,except herself.
    Great-uncle Curry was naturally lazy. He spent a great deal of his time in the village pub playing darts.He was also a compulsive reader from the local telephone directory to great-aunt's shopping lists.For a man whose book showed such a deep perception of the complexities of human behavior, his conversation was surprisingly trivial.He delighted in discussing English weather,the price of beer,his grandchildren's most amusing words.
    He loved gossip,but he was kind.I never heard him make a malicious remark,but the wisdom of his writing never appeared in his conversation.As a child,we much preferred the company of his cousin,Stanly,who was a successful shop-owner who always brought us bags of sugar and broken biscuits.Taking it all in all,I have to admit my famous great-uncle was rather a bore.

    My great-uncle's anxious look made his lady admirers________.
    A:look stupid
    B:want to protect him
    C:irritate his wife
    D:confused about what worried him

    答案:B
    解析:
    根据文章第一段最后一句:" It seems that they find it difficult to accept such a great figure could have had such an ordinary character.”由此可以判断人们失望是因为他们很难接受这样一个伟大的人物居然是这样一个普通人,所以选B。
    第二段第五句提到:" This expression of anxiety , which arose from nothing more than short-sight",他焦虑的神情来自于他的近视,所以选C“他视力不好”。 arise在文中的意思是“起因于······,由······产生”。
    第二段第五句提到:" This expression of anxiety...inspire the protective in-stincts of his lady admirers" , inspire意为“激发”' protective instinct意为“保护的本能”。所以选 B,即让他的女性崇拜者想要保护他。
    文章的后两段指出了劳伦斯是一个天生懒惰、无聊的人,有强迫阅读症,只有D“劳伦斯是一个幽默的人”这点在全文都没有提及,所以选D。
    文章的最后一段提到:" Stanly , who...who always brought us bags of sugar and broken biscuits",小孩子更喜欢叔祖父的表兄是因为他总带给他们糖和饼干,都是孩子爱吃的东西,所以B正确。

  • 第13题:

    Passage One

    Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

    How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.

    Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities. If a child has good parents, he is well fed, looked after and loved. It is unlikely that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child-things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside is a marvelous adventure.But a child has his pains:he is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older people are; he is continually being told what to do and what not to do.Therefore, a child is not happy as he wishes to be.

    When the young man starts to earn his own living, he becomes free from the discipline of school and parents; but at the same time he is forced to accept.responsibilities. With no one to pay for his food, his clothes, or his room, he has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may get himself into trouble. If, however, he works hard, goes by the law and has good health, he may feel satisfied in seeing himself make steady progress in his job and in building up for himself his own position in society.

    Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be; but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age comes wisdom and the ability to help others with advice wisely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them; and, perhaps best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving everything to others.

    21.The happiest people should be those who

    A.face up to difficulties in life

    B.hope to be young again

    C.enjoy life in different ages

    D.wish to be grown up


    正确答案:C

  • 第18题:

    "He looks normal." That′ s what everybody says when I tell them my son was just diagnosed as autism (孤独症). They all say it without exception.

He laughs when you move your fingers 32 on a sensitive part of his body. And he often plays with his toys like every other young child at his age.

    He regularly doesn′t eat. The food often bothers him when he puts it in his mouth. He is very small 36 his age. We are told that it′s another effect of the autism.
    Because autism isn′t like some other 37 , there is no set treatment. Each child needs to be treated 38 ; what works for one probably doesn′t work for another. Try a treatment. If it doesn′t work, you have to try another39 you hopefully find something that does work.

    56._________
    A: fun
    B: real
    C: sure
    D: serious

    答案:B
    解析:
    根据句意,每次骨折似乎总是发生在做运动时,应当选用动词do。 practise表示“练习”,后面应跟某一项具体的训练,而不是sport,所以正确答案为C。
    play the part of…为固定搭配,意为“扮演一个……的角色”,其他三项均不合适。
    联系上下文,根据句意,在影片制作过程中,所以应当用during。
    根据句意,Harrelson在影片制作过程中不断地抱怨,而且后面的动词complain用的是 ing形式,因此动词keep“连续,不断”最为恰当。continue后加动词ing形式一般表示在停顿后重新开始、继续,carry一般后面跟介词on,表示“进行某项事务”,insist表示 “坚决主张”,不合句意,所以选A。
    联系上下文,因为是影片中的打斗场景,所以这里scene是正确答案。
    根据句意,Harrelson抱怨打架的场景不真实,他建议他们要有一个真实的打架场景。因此B项正确。
    联系上下文,作者要表达的是最终他还是被他的搭档说服了,副词eventually放在动词persuade之前,lastly表示“最后一点,最后”,“at the end”一般放在段落的最后,表示最后怎么样。
    根据句意,当他意识到他的对手把这场打架看得很重时,他后悔这个决定了,因此C 项正确。
    so… that…固定搭配,太……以至于……,根据句意,“Harreison如此狠地打在 Banderas的脸上,以至于居然打破了Banderas的鼻子”,其他选项都不适合。
    固定搭配take a risk,表示“冒险”。
    联系上下文,根据句意,“他记起在他的故乡马拉加进行的一场足球比赛”,是因为鼻子骨折这件事促使他想起了故乡的那次比赛,remind表示“提醒”,符合句意。re-member表示“自然想起,记起”不合句意。
    根据句意和后面的介词of,显然,“他一直梦想成为一个足球明星”, dream是正确答案。pretend表示“假装”,后面跟介词to,不合句意;look forward表示“向往”,后面跟介词to,不合句意。
    固定搭配take up sth.,表示“开始从事某事”,根据句意,作者要表达的是“我决定开始演戏”,因此up是正确答案。
    联系上下文,作者显然把它看成是另外一种比赛,所以只有another符合句意。
    词组football pitch,表示“足球场”。前面由介词on引导,后面一定是场地,也就是足球场,而不是match“比赛”。court表示“网球场”, course表示“跑道”,均不符合句意。

    Lawrence Curry

    When I tell people my name,they always ask me if I'm related to Lawrence Curry,the novelist,and when I say,yes,he was my great-uncle,they always want to know what he was like. "We've read all his books,"they say,"but please tell us what he was really like."When I described him,as I knew him,they go disappointed.It seems that they find it difficult to accept such a great figure could have had such an ordinary character.
    My great-uncle was tall,with a long thin body.When he walked,he moved stiffly,with his arms clamped against his sides,looking like nothing so much as a pair of scissors.When I knew him,his hair as quite white,though it was supposed to have been yellow when he was young. His eyes were blue and deep set and had an anxious look about them as if he found the world a puzzling place.This expression of anxiety,which arose from nothing more than short-sight一he refused to wear glasses一inspire the protective instincts of his lady admirers,much to the irritation my great-aunt who thought all women were fools,except herself.
    Great-uncle Curry was naturally lazy. He spent a great deal of his time in the village pub playing darts.He was also a compulsive reader from the local telephone directory to great-aunt's shopping lists.For a man whose book showed such a deep perception of the complexities of human behavior, his conversation was surprisingly trivial.He delighted in discussing English weather,the price of beer,his grandchildren's most amusing words.
    He loved gossip,but he was kind.I never heard him make a malicious remark,but the wisdom of his writing never appeared in his conversation.As a child,we much preferred the company of his cousin,Stanly,who was a successful shop-owner who always brought us bags of sugar and broken biscuits.Taking it all in all,I have to admit my famous great-uncle was rather a bore.

    Lawrence Curry's cousin was much preferred by kids for__________.
    A:he often brought kids something they liked to eat
    B:he was an interesting man
    C:he was a rich businessman
    D:he loved kids more than Lawrence did

    答案:A
    解析:
    根据文章第一段最后一句:" It seems that they find it difficult to accept such a great figure could have had such an ordinary character.”由此可以判断人们失望是因为他们很难接受这样一个伟大的人物居然是这样一个普通人,所以选B。
    第二段第五句提到:" This expression of anxiety , which arose from nothing more than short-sight",他焦虑的神情来自于他的近视,所以选C“他视力不好”。 arise在文中的意思是“起因于······,由······产生”。
    第二段第五句提到:" This expression of anxiety...inspire the protective in-stincts of his lady admirers" , inspire意为“激发”' protective instinct意为“保护的本能”。所以选 B,即让他的女性崇拜者想要保护他。
    文章的后两段指出了劳伦斯是一个天生懒惰、无聊的人,有强迫阅读症,只有D“劳伦斯是一个幽默的人”这点在全文都没有提及,所以选D。
    文章的最后一段提到:" Stanly , who...who always brought us bags of sugar and broken biscuits",小孩子更喜欢叔祖父的表兄是因为他总带给他们糖和饼干,都是孩子爱吃的东西,所以B正确。

    Practice 3  Einstein was one of the intellectual heroes of history, and such heroes, like Newton and like Darwin, are always twofold — rebels in their work and heretics in society. He prized the integrity of man's personality more highly than man's science. Back in the 1920's he said, in some desultory interview, that two discoveries might destroy mankind: atomic energy and universal thought-reading. The wry prophecy sums up Einstein's passions. He saw deeply into nature, her promise and her threat, but he was not too abstracted to remember .the fallibility of men. For him the key to the world lay in the minds of men. He fought for freedom of the mind from his rebellious school-days and the manifesto of 1914 to his dying day. In his last years he spoke out constantly against the inquisition which then darkened America. But even his love for science and for freedom was not abstract. These were for him the high places of the human mind, and he lived those; he loved people.  His richness of sympathy made him a symbol to an age. It carried his ideas beyond their scientific setting so that, more profoundly than the work of any philosopher, they changed the outlook of philosophy. All his ideas grew from one conception: that the world is not given to us absolutely, but is something which we actively observe and thereby shape. For Einstein was a practical thinker; to him, truth was that which is experienced in action. When he died, on April 18, 1955, Einstein had created a new empiricism, as revolutionary and as lasting as that with which Galileo laid the foundation of science.

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    爱因斯坦是历史上杰出的知识分子之一,像他这样的杰出人物,如牛顿和达尔文,总是具有双重性——在工作上是造反派,在社会上又是离经叛道者。爱因斯坦珍视人的道德品格胜于学问。早在20年代,他在一次漫谈式采访中就说过:有两个发现可能会毁灭人类,一个是原子能,另一个是万能读心术。这个辛辣的预言集中表现了他的强烈情感。他洞悉大自然,深知它会给人类带来什么希望,又会给人类造成什么威胁。但是他并没有因为思维太抽象而忘记人类免不了要犯错误。在他看来,打开世界的钥匙是人的头脑。自学生时代造反开始,到1914年发表“宣言”,一直到临终之日,他都在为解放思想而奋斗。在生命的最后岁月里,他还不断地站出来说话,反对当时把美国搞得乌烟瘴气的对进步人士的审讯。但是,即使他对科学和自由的热爱,也不是抽象的。在他看来,科学和自由是人类思想的高峰。在这方面,他身体力行;他热爱人民。
    他富有同情心,这使他成为一个时代的象征。他的同情心使他的思想超越了科学的境界,因而他的思想比任何一个哲学家的著作都更为深刻地改变了哲学的面貌。他的一切思想都来自一个观念,即这个世界不是无条件给予我们的,而是要我们去积极观察并加以塑造。爱因斯坦是个讲究实际的思想家,在他看来,真理是由行动体现出来的。到l955年4月18日逝世的时候,爱因斯坦已经创立了一种新经验论,它与伽利略用以奠定科学基础的经验论一样具有革命性,一样持久。
