Lately, more and more singles are turning to the Internet for better dating opportunities. The process of an online relationship, however, is very different from the real-life dating process. The online environment is, by its very nature, restrictive.Trish met a man online, and the online relationship quickly blossomed into an intense, intimate encounter. She had lied in the beginning of the relationship by understating her own weight by 150 pounds. When he asked for her picture a week later, she worried about her lie, and sent a picture of a slimmer woman instead. In her mind, however, he would come to accept her physically once he fell in love with her soul. A few weeks passed, and the relationship intensified. He arranged to fly to meet her. She felt confident that her lie would be forgiven if she confessed in person. However, the woman he met was nothing physically that she had led him to imagine.He walked away angrily and refused to speak to her again. Trish blamed society’s focus on beauty, not willing to realize that she had cheated him.Amy, a friend of mine, was involved in an online romance for several months with Jed, a man who lived in another state. Their relationship included lengthy and intimate phone conversations. They genuinely cared for each other, and spent time supporting one another through difficult life decisions. From their perspectives, they shared an intimate and loving relationship. When she suddenly became ill and hospitalized, I relayed messages to him, until he was able to contact her in her hospital room. They soon began discussing the possibility of living together.Problems occurred when they met for the first time. My friend complained that the spark that they shared online no longer existed in real life. Once completely charmed, they now easily annoyed each other. After sharing their feelings and troubles for three months, they became total strangers face-to-face. Realizing that they had crossed intimacy boundaries, it was uncomfortable to assume even a friendly relationship.(1)According to the 1st paragraph, the online relationship _____________.A、is similar to the real-life dateB、is not limiting by natureC、is a better dating opportunityD、is more and more popular among singles(2)Why didn’t Trish send her own picture to the man?A、Because she was very confident.B、Because she was not as slim as she lied.C、Because she fell in love with him.D、Because the man loves slim lady.(3)When did the man arrange their first meeting?A、After he knew the lie.B、After he got her picture.C、After their relationship became steady.D、After he accepted her physically.(4)Why did the man get angry?A、Because Trish refused to speak to him.B、Because Trish blamed the society, not herself.C、Because Trish didn’t confess before him.D、Because he realized he was cheated.(5)The story of Amy and Jed tells us _____________.A、Love online is hard to survive (生存 ) in real life.B、Her illness made them live together.C、It is hard for strangers to live together.D、It is impossible to find true love online.

Thomas Hardy's impulses as a writer, all of which he indulged in his novels, were numerous and divergent, and they did not always work together in harmony. Hardy was to some degree interested in exploring his characters' psychologies, though impelled less by curiosity than by sympathy. Occasionally he felt the impulse to comedy (in all its detached coldness) as well as the impulse to farce, but he was more often inclined to see tragedy and record it. He was also inclined to literary realism in the several senses of that phrase. He wanted to describe ordinary human beings; he wanted to speculate on their dilemma rationally (and, unfortunately, even schematically); and he wanted to record precisely the material universe. Finally, he wanted to be more than a realist. He wanted to transcend what he considered to be the banality of solely recording things exactly and to express as well his awareness of the occult and the strange.In his novels these various impulses were sacrificed to each other inevitably and often. Inevitably, because Hardy did not care in the way that novelists such as Flaubert or James cared, and therefore took paths of least resistance. Thus, one impulse often surrendered to a fresher one and, unfortunately, instead of exacting a compromise, simply disappeared. A desire to throw over reality a light that never was might give way abruptly to the desire on the part of what we might consider a novelist-scientist to record exactly and concretely the structure and texture of a flower. In this instance, the new impulse was at least an energetic one, and thus its indulgence did not result in a relaxed style. But on other occasions Hardy abandoned a perilous, risky, and highly energizing impulse in favor of what was for him the fatally relaxing impulse to classify and schematize abstractly. When a relaxing impulse was indulged, the style. —that sure index of an author's literary worth —was certain to become verbose. Hardy's weakness derived from his apparent inability to control the comings and goings of these divergent impulses and from his unwillingness to cultivate and sustain the energetic and risky ones. He submitted to first one and then another, and the spirit blew where it listed; hence the unevenness of any one of his novels. His most controlled novel, Under the Greenwood Tree, prominently exhibits two different but reconcilable impulses —a desire to be a realist-historian and a desire to be a psychologist of love —but the slight interlockings of plot are not enough to bind the two completely together. Thus even this book splits into two distinct parts.The most appropriate title for the passage could be ______.A.Under the Greenwood Tree: Hardy's Ambiguous TriumphB.The Real and the Strange: the Novelist's Shifting RealmsC.Hardy's Novelistic Impulses: the Problem of ControlD.Divergent Impulses: the Issue of Unity in the Novel

听力原文: [29] Moving away from newspapers, let's now focus on magazines. Now the first magazine was a little periodical called The Review, and it was started in London in 1704. It looked a lot like the newspapers of the time. But in terms of its content, it was much different. [30] Newspapers were concerned mainly with news events, but The Review focused on important domestic issues of the day, as well as the policies of the government. Now in England at that time, people could still be thrown in jail for publishing articles that were critical of the king. And that's what happened to Daniel Defoe. He was the outspoken founder of The Review. Defoe actually wrote the first issue of The Review from prison. You see, he had been arrested because of his writings that criticized the policies of the Church of England, which was headed by the king. After his release, Defoe continued to produce The Review and the magazine started to appear on a more frequent schedule, about three times a week. It didn't take long for other magazines to start popping up. [31] In 1709, a magazine called The Tattler began publication. This new magazine contained a mixture of news, poetry, political analysis, and philosophical essays.(30)A.Early newspapers in England.B.The early history of magazines.C.The life of Daniel Defoe.D.Differences between newspapers and magazines.

Boxing matches were very popular in England two hundred years ago. In those days, boxers fought with bare fists for prize money. Because of this, they were known as "prize-fighters". However, boxing was very crude, for there were no rules and a prize-fighter could be seriously injured or even killed during a match.One of the most colourful figures in boxing history was Daniel Mendoza, who was born in 1764. The use of gloves was not introduced until 1860 when the Marquis of Queensberry drew up the first set of rules. Though he was technically a prize-fighter, Mendoza did much to change crude prize-fighting into a sport, for he brought science to the game. In his day, Mendoza enjoyed tremendous popularity. He was adored by rich and poor alike.Mendoza rose to fame swiftly after a boxing-match when he was only fourteen years old. This attracted the attention of Richard Humphries, who was then the most eminent boxer in England. He offered to train Mendoza and his young pupil was quick to learn. In fact, Mendoza soon became so successful that Humphries turned against him. The two men quarrelled bitterly and it was clear that the argument could only be settled by a fight. A match was held at Stilton where both men fought for an hour. The public bet a great deal of money on Mendoza, but he was defeated. Mendoza met Humphries in the ring on a later occasion and he lost for a second time. It was not until his third match in 1790 that he finally beat Humphries and became Champion of England. Meanwhile, he founded a highly successful Academy and even Lord Byron became one of his pupils. He earned enormous sums of money and was paid as much as £ 100 for a single appearance. Despite this, he was so extravagant that he was always in debt. After he was defeated by a boxer called Gentleman Jackson, he was quickly forgotten. He was sent to prison for failing to pay his debts and died in poverty in 1836.1. Boxing in the 18th century was crude because _____.A. boxers fought with bare fistsB. there were no regulationsC. boxers could be seriously injured or even killed during a matchD. All of the above2. What do you think led to the change of crude prize-fighting into a sport? _____A. Prize money.B. The introduction of science to the game.C. The use of gloves.D. The first set of rules of boxing.3. Why did Mendoza enjoy tremendous popularity in his day? _____A. He had defeated his own coach.B. He was the first to introduce the use of gloves.C. He did much to change prize-fighting into a sport.D. He had drawn up the first set of rules of boxing.4. Mendoza _____ when he was only a teenager.A. was seriously injuredB. enjoyed more popularity than HumphiresC. made a great deal of moneyD. gained fame quickly5. Humphries turned against Mendoza because _____.A. Mendoza refused to be his pupilB. he was jealous of Mendoza's successC. Mendoza rose to fame swiftlyD. Mendoza was quick to learn
