One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of ones own. Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature. Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night. 11. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city. B. All the people who work in London prefer to live in the country. C. Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London. D. Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city. 12. With the same money needed for _, one can buy a little house with a garden in the country. A. getting a small flat with a garden B. having a small flat with a garden C. renting a small flat without a garden D. buying a small flat without a garden 13. When the garden is in blossom, the one _ has been rewarded. A. living in the country B. having spent time working in the garden C. having a garden of his own D. having been digging, planting and watering 14. People who think happiness lies in the city life would feel that _ if they had to live outside London. A. their life was meaningless B. their life was invaluable C. they didn t deserve a happy life D. they were not worthy of their happy life 15. The underlined phrase get away from in the 3rdparagraph refers to _. A. deal with B. do away with C. escape from D. prevent from 11-15: BCBAC Passage 2 By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others-they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation s consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 2 页，共 7 页3 / 7 be made in medical science. Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity （明星） , who are legendary, who somehow manage to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? That s hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana. 16. The passage mainly deals with _. A. life and death B. heroes and heroines C. heroes and icons D. icons and celebrities 17. Heroes and heroines are usually _. A. courageous B. good example to follow C. self-sacrificing D. all of the above 18. Which of the following statements is wrong? A. Poverty in America has been eased with the economic growth. B. Superstars are famous for being famous. C. One s look can contribute to being famous. D. Heroes and heroines can only emerge in war times. 19. Beautiful young Diana Spencer found her genuine love _. A. when she was 19 B. when she became a princess C. just before her death D. after she gave birth to a prince 20. What is more likely to set an icon s status? A. Good looks. B. Tragic and early death. C. Personal attraction. D. The quality of one s story. 16-20: CDDCB Passage 3 Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious 。that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making?Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes? It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A person s conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and they way a person behaves affects other people s reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives. Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing “ the right thing. ”S hy people are very sensitive to criticism 。 they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one, “ You re just saying that to make me feel good. I know it s not true.”I t is clear that while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful. Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteems, it is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths. Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let s not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life. 21.
