One of the most successful, influential, and beloved women in American history, Eleanor Roosevelt once said that she had one regret: She wished she had been prettier. Who hasn’t felt the same way? We are all too awake to our physical imperfections. To overcome them, we spend billions upon billions of dollars every year on cosmetics, diet products, fashion, and plastic surgery.Why do we care so much about how we look? Because it matters. Because beauty is powerful. Because even when we learn to value people mostly for being kind and wise and funny, we are still moved by beauty. No matter how much we argue against it or pretend to be immune, beauty exerts its power over us. There is simply no escape.Aristotle said, “Beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of introduction.” It’s not fair, but it’s true. We simply treat beautiful people better than we do others. Attach a photograph of a beautiful author to an essay, and people will think that it is more creative and more intelligently written than exactly the same essay accompanied by the photo of a homely author.As children, beautiful people are more likely to become favorites with parents and teachers. Later, they’re more likely to get good jobs and promotion. Beautiful lawyers get paid more than their less attractive colleagues. Good-looking criminals are more likely to win the sympathy of judges and juries. Attractive people in need are more likely to receive help from strangers.(1)Eleanor Roosevelt’s regret shows ().A、she was one of the most successful, influential, and beloved women in American historyB、she was not prettyC、she has many regretsD、even she was pretty, she wanted to be prettier(2)“It matters” in paragraph 2 line 1 means ().A、It is a matterB、It doesn’t matterC、It is importantD、It is not important(3)According to paragraph 2 and paragraph 3, which of the following is not true?A、We learn to value people mostly for being kind and wise and funny.B、We can be immune to beauty.C、Aristotle meant beauty is the best recommendation.D、People think a beautiful author’s essay is more creative and more intelligently written.(4)Paragraph 4 is written to show ().A、beauty is powerfulB、beautiful children are favorites with parents and teachersC、beautiful lawyers get higher pay than their homely colleaguesD、attractive people receive more help from strangers(5)The word “good -looking” in paragraph 4 line 3 may mean ().A、beautiful or handsomeB、lovelyC、carefulD、kind-hearted

Passage FiveDanny was just tired about the way things were going. His mom came to the school and went on and on talking about Rick Jackson. It seemed that she would never stop talking. "Somebody's got to stop that boy!" she was shouting, "Rick's troubling everybody in the neighborhood. And he loves to pick on little boys like Danny."Mrs. Green, Danny's teacher, was concerned a lot. "I didn't know that Danny was being picked on," she nswered. "He's never said anything about this to me!" Mrs. Green looked at Danny. "How long has this been going on?" She asked. Danny could only shake his head and look at the floor. He knew if he said a word about this, he would have trouble after school.Danny hadn't said anything about the problem because he wanted to play with the boys in the neighborhood. After all, most of them were nice to him. He hated to leave the gang just because of Rick. Maybe the time had come to find new friends. He felt it hard to make up his mind.52.

I was 15 when I met my first real teacher, Mrs Geurin. I didn’t know her well at the time but I thought I hated her.In her first class, she asked us to write a piece about an influencial person, place or memory. I chose to write my lake house, a topic I had already written about and received a vast amount of praise for. Put simply, it was the place that my parents met and fell in love.This teacher knew about my original piece and she was not happy. Throught the school year,we would pass each other in the hall, never saying a word to each other.It was not until February of 2012 that we spoke at the most unusual of places, my father’s funeral. At first, I was angry that she showed up. Did she even care? She didn’t even know him! I stood, watching her give a deep bow to my father’s coffin, completely confused!It was not until she approached me that I realized she was crying even harder than I was.“Kali,” she said, “I am so sorry. My own father passed away just three weeks ago, and I completely feel your pain.” I was shocked. I understood that she had also lost her father, but I didn’t see the connection between us just yet. She had rejected my writing. That was not something that I was willing to so early forgive.A couple of weeks later, she went into my study hall and placed an envelope on my desk.In the letter, she told me her father, also had cancer, also passed away in six months’ time and he was her best friend too. It was not just this letter, but this act of kindness that taught me my,greatest life lesson. Losing has taught us both how to appreciate life. For that lesson, I am always grateful.39.

I used to think education was the most important thing in my life. Recently my attitude has begun to change, although I still hold that it is essential for everyone in the world today. As a top junior student in my college, I was asked to make a speech on how to learn English well. Standing in front of the audience and facing so many freshmen, I was trembling. I didn't remember any word that I had prepared. I ran out of the conference room without finishing my speech, leaving everyone puzzled. I cried that night in my room, feeling that I was a loser. Studying takes up so much of my time that I feel unable to really develop myself. I am just storing knowledge, yet I fail to communicate with others. I have received many awards in school, but they don't necessarily reflect anything about me. I don't know how to socialize. When I leave school I fear I will be of no use to society.I realize that everyone has his own way of living. I want to change my lifestyle. Of course I will keep studying. Yet I plan to look for a part-time job, which might turn out to be a good chance to get to know society. I still believe that working my hardest makes me happy. I will still stay on in college. But I will not allow it to shelter me from the real world.1.

共用题干第一篇Florence NightingaleFlorence Nightingale was born in Florence,Italy,while her wealthy English parents were traveling in Europe.As a child,she traveled to many places with her family and learned how to speak several languages.When Nightingale was 17,she told her family that she was going to help sick people. Her parents did not approve,but Nightingale was determined.She traveled to hospitals all over Europe.She saw that doctors were working too hard. She saw that patients died because they did not get enough care.Nightingale felt that women could be doing more to help doctors take care of sick people.Nightingale knew that in order for nurses to do more,they needed special training in how to take care of sick people.Nightingale went to a hospital in Germany to study nursing. Then she returned to London and became the head of a group of women called Gentlewomen During Illness.These women cared for sick people in their homes.In 1854,England was fighting a war with Russia.War reporters wrote about the terrible conditions in the hospitals that cared for the wounded.People demanded that something be done about it.A leader of the government asked Florence Nightingale to take some nurses into the war hospitals.So,in November 1854,Nightingale finally got to work in a hospital.She took along 38 nurses whom she had trained herself.At first,the doctors on the battlefields did not want Nightingale and her nurses in their hospitals.They did not believe that women could help.But in fact,the nurses did make a difference.They worked around the clock,tending the sick.Thanks to their hard work, many wounded soldiers survived.After the war,Nightingale and her nurses were treated like heroes.Finally,in 1860, she started the Nightingale School for Nurses.In time,thanks to Florence Nightingale, nursing became an important part of medicine. Nightingale's parents did not approve of her decisionA:to work as a doctor.B:to care for sick people.C:to fight in the war with Russia.D:to travel to hospitals all over Europe.
Faces, like fingerprints, are unique.Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? Even ask illed writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child or even an animal, such as a pigeon--can learn to recognize faces, we all take this ability for granted.We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone′ s personality, we mean the ways in which heor she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someone′ s personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a "nice face"looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a "nice person", you might begin to think about someone who was kind, considerate, friendly, warm, and so forth.There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Gordon Allport, an American psychologist, found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in people′s behavior.And many of us use this information as a basis for describing or typing his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types--people are describedwith such terms.People have always tried to "type" each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villain′s or the hero′s role. In fact, the words "person" and"personality" come from the Latin person a, meaning "mask".Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easilytell the "good guys" from the "bad guys" because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions.By using the example of fingerprints the author tells us that ____________.A.people can learn to recognize facesB.people have different personalitiesC.people have difficulty in describing the features of finger printsD.people differ from each other in facial features
Lisa was running late．Lisa,25 ,had a lot to do at work,plus visitors on the way: her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown．But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warn．By the time she got to the platform, Lisa felt weak and tired-- maybe it hadn' t been a good idea to give blood the night before, she thought．She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.Several yards away, Frank ,43, and his girlfriend, Jennifer,found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop．They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling," Oh, my God, she fell in!" Frank didn' t hesitate．He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails．"No ! Not you ! "his girlfriend screamed after him.She was right to be alarmed．By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming．The train was about 20 seconds from the station.It was hard to lift her．She was just out．But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the grins and drag her away from the edge．That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness, felt herself being pulled along the ground, and saw someone else holding her purse.Lisa thought she' d been robbed．A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head．And she tried to talk but she couldn' t, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer．Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown--just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time."I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die．"she explained. The passage is intended toA.warn us of the danger in the subwayB.show us how to save people in the subwayC.tell us about a subway rescueD.report a traffic accident
共用题干第一篇Oseola McCartyLate one Sunday afternoon in September 1999,Oseola McCarty,an elderly cleaning lady passed away in the little wooden flame house where she had lived and worked most of her life.It may seem like an ordinary end to a humble life,but there was something quite exceptional about this woman.In the summer of 1995,McCarty gave $150,000,most of the money she had saved throughout her life, to the University of Southern Mississippi in her hometown. The money was to help other Mrican Americans through university.She had started her savings habit as a young child when she would return from school to clean and iron for money which she would then save.She led a simple，枷gal existence,never spending on anything but her most basic needs.Her bank also advised her on investing her hard-earned savings.When she retired,she decided that she wanted to use the money to give children of limited means the opportunity to go to university.She had wanted to become a nurse,but had to leave school to look after ill relatives and work.When asked why she had given her life savings away,she replied,"I'm giving it away so that children won't have to work so hard,like I did."After news of her donation hit the media,over 600 donations were made to the scholarship fund.One was given by media executive,Ted Turner,who reputedly gave a billion dollars.She didn't want any fuss made over her gift,but the news got out and she was invited all over the United States to talk to people.Wherever she went,people would come up to her to say a few words or just touch her. She met the ordinary and the famous,President Clinton included.In the last few years of her life, before she died of cancer,McCarty was given over 300 awards:she was honoured by the United Nations and received the Presidential Citizen's Medal.Despite having no real education,she found herself with two honorary doctorates:one from the University of Southern Mississippi and the other from Harvard University.Her generosity was clearly an inspiration to many people arid proof that true selflessness does exist.She managed to save so much money because________.A:she had ironed and washed clothes all her lifeB:she had worked hard,saved hard and invested carefullyC:she had opened a good bank accountD:she knew how to make money
