Lincoln had to make a living at an early age, but in his spare time he studied law. He soon became one of the best-known lawyers. Lincoln became famous for his debates (辩论) on the subject of slavery. In 1860, Lincoln was elected President of the United States. He was the candidate (候选人) of the new Republican Party.

Early in 1865, the Civil War came to an end with the defeat of the South by the North. Only a few days after the end of the War, Lincoln was shot by an actor named John Wilkes Booth.

Meng Xiangbin, who teaches press photography, takes pictures before and after class, to see who is late, who leaves early and who is absent. Some students say it makes them feel uncomfortable, while some say they prefer this method, because calling the roll-call before class wastes too much time.28. What does Xie Qing study at college?A.

The prison is a stress-reduction center named Prison Inside Me, located on the outskirts of Hongcheon, about 58 miles northeast of Seoul. It is the brainchild of 47-year-old Kwon Yong-seok, who was once a lawyer. “I didnt know how to stop working back then,” he said. “I felt like I was being swept away against my will, and it seemed I couldnt control my own life.” At that moment, he decided to spend time behind bars. He asked his old friend a prison head if he could spend a week in prison, but his request was refused.So Kwon decided to design and build a prison-like spiritual center. The center was completed in June last year and cost about 2 billion won ($19 million). Kwon managed to cover the cost by borrowing from banks, friends and relatives. The facility, he said, was not built for making money.The facility includes 28 single rooms, equipped with only a toilet, a sink and a small table, where guests can spend time alone, thinking deeply and enjoying the quiet and peace. According to the Wall Street Journal, hundreds of stressed South Koreans are checking in at the stress-reduction center. A two-night stay at “Prison Inside Me” costs 150,000 won ($146/106).Park Woo-sub, a guest said, “It is very boring, but it is very helpful, because I can look into my inner self and talk to myself in prison". Another guest thought the place was too warm and clean to feel like a real prison. He said, “It would have been more helpful if the facility had been in poorer shape like a real prison.” 32. Why did Kwon Yong-seok build the “Prison Inside Me”? A. He wanted to have his own prison to punish the crimes. B. He wanted to help South Koreans to reduce stress. C. He wanted to make much money in a new field. D. He wanted to become popular in South Korea.33. The underlined phrase “behind bars” in the third paragraph probably means _. A. in bars B. behind the doors C. in prison D. in police station 34. What can we learn from the passage? A. Mr. Kwon cannot afford to build “Prison Inside Me” by himself. B. Park Woo-sub has been put into prison three times for his crime. C. A two-night stay at “Prison Inside Me” costs $150,000. D. “Prison Inside Me” has no difference from a real prison.35. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. A very popular prison in South Korea. B. Methods to reduce stress in South Korea. C. A lawyer and his contribution in South Korea. D. A stress-reduction center in South Korea.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When your pet is sick, you know it needs medicine.
