    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

    Milosevic's Death

    Former Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic was found dead last Saturday in his cell at the Hague一based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia.The 64-year-old had been on trial there since February 2002.
    Born in provincial Pozarevac in 1941,he was the second son of a priest and a school teacher. Both of his parents died when he was still a young adult.The young Milosevic was"untypical", says Slavoljub Djukic,his unofficial biographer. He was"not interested in sports,avoided excur-sions(短途旅行)and used to come to school dressed in the old-fashioned way-white shirt and tie". One of his old friends said, he could "imagine him as a station-master or punctilious(一丝不苟的)civil servant".
    Indeed that is exactly what he might have become,had he not married Mira. She was widely believed to be his driving force.
    At university and beyond he did well. He worked for various firms and was a communist party member. By 1986 he was head of Serbia's Central Committee. But still he had not yet really been noticed.
    It was Kosovo that gave him his chance.An autonomous province of Serbia,Kosovo was home to an Albanian majority and a Serbian minority.In 1989,he was sent there to calm fears of Serbians who felt they were discriminated against. But instead he played the nationalist card and became their champion. In so doing , he changed into a ruthless(无情的)and determined man. At home with Mira he plotted the downfall of his political enemies. Conspiring(密谋)with the director of Serbian TV,he mounted a modern media campaign which aimed to get him the most power in the country.
    He was elected Serbian president in 1990.In 1997,he became president of Yugoslavia. The rest of the story is well-known:his nationalist card caused Yugoslavia's other ethnic groups to fight for their own rights,power and lands.Yugoslavia broke up when four of the six republics declared independence in 1991.War started and lasted for years and millions died.Then Western countries intervened.NATO bombed Yugoslavia,and he eventually stepped down as state leader in 2000.
    Soon after this,Serbia's new government,led by Zoran Djindjic,arrested him and sent him to face justice at the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal in the Hague.

    Where did Milosevic die?
    A:In a basement.
    B:In a prison.
    C:In Kosovo.
    D:In his own country.

    答案:B
    解析:
    本文开头说到了米洛舍维奇死亡的时间和地点“in his cell at the Hague一based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia",即海牙国际刑事法庭前南斯拉夫仲裁庭的牢房中,显然,可以排除选项D,而pnson和cell为近义词。
    本题为推断题。文章第二段最后一句和第三段都提到了这一点,要不是跟Mira结婚,他有可能成为一个站长或是公务员,而在此之前,他并没有太大的抱负。
    问题问对米洛舍维奇的命运未产生某种影响的人是谁?尽管文章第二段在讲述他的童年时谈到了他的父母,但看不出他们对他的命运有什么影响。相反,另外三位在一定程度上影响了米洛舍维奇的人生的成与败。
    文章倒数第三段中间提到:"In 1989, he was sent there to calm fears of Serbians who felt they were discriminated against.”他被派到科索沃去消除感觉受到歧视的塞尔维亚人的恐慌。
    倒数第二段说“Yugoslavia broke up when four of the six republics declared independence in 1991.”即1991年,6个共和国中的4个宣布独立后,南斯拉夫解体了。

    The Storyteller
    1 Steven Spielberg has always had one goal:to tell as many interesting stories to as many people as possible.The son of a computer scientist and a pianist,Spielberg spent his early childhood in New Jersey and then Arizona.Some of his childhood memories became the inspiration for his filmmaking.
    2 Even decades later,Spielberg says he has vivid memories of his earliest years,which are the origins of some of his most successful films.He believes that E.T.is the result of the difficult years leading up to his parent ' 5 1966 divorce.He commented,"It is really about a young boy who was in search of some stability in his life."Close Encounters of the Third Kind was inspired by times when the four-year-old Steven and his father would search the skies for meteors(流星).His mother remembers,"He was scared of just about everything.When trees brushed against the house,he would jump into my bad.And that'5 just the kind of scary stuff he would put in films like Poltergeist."
    3 Spielberg was 1 1 when he first got his hands on his dad'5 movie camera and began shooting short flicks(电影)about flying saucers(飞碟)and World War II battles.These homemade movies gave him a way to escape his fears.From the very beginning,he had a creative imagination.With his talent for scary storytelling, he could terrify his three younger sisters.It also made it easier for him to make friendships.On Boy Scout camping trips,when night fell,young Steven became the center of attention."Steven would start telling his ghost stories,"says Richard Y.Hoffman.Jr.,leader of Troop 294,"and everyone would suddenly get quiet so hat they could all hear."
    4 Spielberg moved to California with his father and went to high school there,but his grades were so bad that he barely graduated.Both UCLA and USC film schools rejected him,so he entered California State University at Long Beach because it was close to Hollywood.Spielberg was determined to make movies,and he managed to get an unpaid, non-credit internship(实习)in Hollywood.Soon he was given a contract, and he dropped out of college.He never looked back.
    5 Now,many years later,Spielberg is still telling stories with as much passion as when he was a boy.Ask him where he gets his ideas,and Spielberg will shrug."The process for me is mostly intuitive,"he says."There are films that I feel that I need to make.And it's for a variety of reasons,for personal reasons,or because I just want to have fun.Or maybe because the subject matter is cool,and I think that my kids will like it."

    When Spielberg was a boy,he used to be scared of_______
    A:making children laugh
    B:almost everything
    C:a lot of money
    D:his childhood memories
    E:telling scary stories
    F:a number of reasons

    答案:B
    解析:
    文章第-段第-句话是该段的主题句。由主题句“Steven Spielberg has always had on goal: to tell as many interesting stories to as many people as possible.”可知,Steven Spielberg的「标是尽可能地给更多的人讲述更多有趣的故事。故选C。
    文章第二段第-句是主题句,该段主要讲Steven Spielberg的-些最成功的电影的灵瘪来源于他对小时候的记忆。故选B。
    文章第三段主要讲,Steven Spielberg小时候通过给小伙伴们讲故事,交到了更多的朋友。故选D。
    文章第四段讲Steven Spielberg因为成绩不好被电影学校拒绝,随后他进入了离好莱坞很近的学校并且在好莱坞获得了实习机会,最后他决定辍学,开始了他的电影之旅。本段主要讲述了他是怎样开始从事电影事业的。故选A。
    由文章第二段第-句话“Even decades later, Steven Spielberg says he has vivid memories of hi earliest years,which are the origins of some of his most successful films.”可知Steven Spielberg所拍摄的-些成功的电影的灵感来自于他对小时候的记忆。故选D。
    由文章第二段第五句话“His mother remembers, 'He was scared of just about every thing.’"可知,Steven Spielberg小时候几乎对所有的东西都感到恐惧。故选B。
    由文章第三段第四句和第五句话可知,Steven Spielberg非常善于讲恐怖故事,他的毒事能吓到他的三个妹妹,也能因此交到更多朋友。故选E。
    由文章最后-段中“There are films that I feel that I need to make.And it' s for a variety c reasons...”可知,Steven Spielberg制作电影的原因有很多。故选F。

    2 Even decades later,Spielberg says he has vivid memories of his earliest years,which are the origins of some of his most successful films.He believes that E.T.is the result of the difficult years leading up to his parent ' 5 1966 divorce.He commented,"It is really about a young boy who was in search of some stability in his life."Close Encounters of the Third Kind was inspired by times when the four-year-old Steven and his father would search the skies for meteors(流星).His mother remembers,"He was scared of just about everything.When trees brushed against the house,he would jump into my bad.And that'5 just the kind of scary stuff he would put in films like Poltergeist."
    3 Spielberg was 1 1 when he first got his hands on his dad'5 movie camera and began shooting short flicks(电影)about flying saucers(飞碟)and World War II battles.These homemade movies gave him a way to escape his fears.From the very beginning,he had a creative imagination.With his talent for scary storytelling, he could terrify his three younger sisters.It also made it easier for him to make friendships.On Boy Scout camping trips,when night fell,young Steven became the center of attention."Steven would start telling his ghost stories,"says Richard Y.Hoffman.Jr.,leader of Troop 294,"and everyone would suddenly get quiet so hat they could all hear."
    4 Spielberg moved to California with his father and went to high school there,but his grades were so bad that he barely graduated.Both UCLA and USC film schools rejected him,so he entered California State University at Long Beach because it was close to Hollywood.Spielberg was determined to make movies,and he managed to get an unpaid, non-credit internship(实习)in Hollywood.Soon he was given a contract, and he dropped out of college.He never looked back.
    5 Now,many years later,Spielberg is still telling stories with as much passion as when he was a boy.Ask him where he gets his ideas,and Spielberg will shrug."The process for me is mostly intuitive,"he says."There are films that I feel that I need to make.And it's for a variety of reasons,for personal reasons,or because I just want to have fun.Or maybe because the subject matter is cool,and I think that my kids will like it."

    问答题
    练习4  Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. (1) It is impossible 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. (2) But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.

    正确答案:
    (1) 在他的生活里,不可能再有得到这么多而无需付出和回报的时候了。
    (2) 但是孩子也有自己的痛苦:他没有做自己想做的事的自由,人们总是告诉他不能做什么,或者为他做的错事惩罚他。
