“Love of life”,______ is one of Jack London’s masterpieces, has been translated into many languages.

A.it                B.what             C.that              D.which

 

【答案】

D

【解析】

试题分析:考查定语从句。本题定语从句的先行词是“Love of life”,which知道先行词引导非限制性定语从句,在句中做主语。句意:热爱生活是杰克伦敦的大师级作品已经被翻译成多种语言了。AB不能引导定语从句,C项不能引导非限制性定语从句,故D正确。

考点:考查定语从句

点评:定语从句的关键是分析句子成分,如果定语从句的句子成分很完整就使用关系副词;如果句子缺少主语,宾语,表语或者定语的时候就使用关系代词。同时也要注意一些关系词的特殊用法,如whose,that,which等。Whose是关系词中唯一的一个可以放在名词前面做定语的关系代词,如果缺少定语,用whose引导定语从句,或是of which the+名词/the+名词+of which。要特别注意which引导非限制性短语从句的用法。

San Francisco has its cable cars. Seattle has its Space Needle. And, Longview has its squirrel bridge. The bridge, which has attracted international attention, is now a local landmark.
The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder, Amos Peters, to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.
The original bridge was built over Olympia Way on the west edge of' the library grounds.Before the bridge was built, squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building where office staff' put out a nutty feast for the squirrels. Many times, Peters and others who worked in and near Park Plaza witnessed squirrels being run over.
One day Peters found a dead squirrels with a nut still in its mouth, and that day’s coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety. The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask the blessing of' the City Council(市政会).The Council approved, and Councilwoman Bess LaRiviere named the bridge “Nutty Narrows.”
After architects designed the bridge, Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started construction. They built the 60-foot bridge from aluminum (铝) and lengths of fire hose (消防水带). It cost $1,000.
It didn't take long before reports of' squirrels using the bridge started. Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching them the ropes. The story was picked up by the media, and Nutty Narrows became known in newspapers all over the world.
In 1983, after 20 years of' use, Peters took down the worn-out bridge.Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced. The faded sign was repainted and in July  1983, hundreds of' animal lovers attended the completion ceremony of 'the new bridge.
Peters died in 1984, and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.

As a senior high school student, my future is always on my mind. To be exact,thoughts of the future have kept me up countless nights and made me worry enough to do poorly on more than one test. Because of this, words of wisdom are a source of comfort.Steve Jobs gave a speech to Stanford's graduating class in 2005 and his words resound repeatedly in my mind whenever I think about my future.

It started when l became a junior, when college came into view.  It's the first big step to making your life your own. So when Jobs discussed his life as a student, some fears were eased. He, too, felt the need to attend college to make something of himself. He faced what many are extremely afraid of: uncertainty. His lack of understanding caused him to stop attending college and focus on what he felt was important. His story had a happy ending, of course, since he certainly turned out well.

This doesn't mean that students shouldn't attend college, but rather that they shouldn't worry so much.  You'll get where you need to go, even if your path is a bit morewinding(蜿蜒的)than you'd like.

Jobs talked about the hardships in his work.  His love of his work helped him carry on and he got where he was meant to be, which restates the point: don't panic.One particular part of his speech stayed with me.  Steve Jobs quoted(引用)thc saying"Stay hungry, stay foolisll" and it has become my motto. Staying foolish is realizing thatyou are still a fool, no matter how much you've learned or experienced.  There is always more to explore. Staying hungry is wanting to find those things about which you are still uneducated.

Steve Jobs' level of success is possible to achieve, and I aim to prove that. With the will power to go into the world living every day like it's my last and allowing the future to take care of itself, I will do great things.  In the last moments of my life, I'll be proud of what I have done and hope to have all the wisdom a person could wish for.

Romantic love is a culture trait found primarily in industrialized societies. Elsewhere in the world, pragmatic(重实效的) considerations rather than flights of fancy are often used to make a choice of partner, and romantic love is seen as an unfortunate inconvenience that gets in the way of the ordinary, rational process of mate selection. Traces of this attitude persist in the American upper classes, where daughters are expected to marry “well”-----that is, to a male who is eligible by reason of family background and earning potential. Most Americans, however, see romantic love as essential for a successful marriage, and tend to look askance(轻蔑地)at anyone who marries for a more practical reason in which love plays no part.

The phenomenon of romantic love occurs when two young people meet and find one another personally and physically attractive. They become mutually absorbed, start to behave in what appears to be a flighty(充满幻想的), even irrational manner, decide that they are right for one another, and may then enter a marriage whose success is expected to be guaranteed by their enduring love. Behavior of this kind is portrayed and warmly endorsed(赞同)throughout American popular culture, by books, magazines, comics, records, popular songs, movies, and TV.

Romantic love is a noble ideal, and it can certainly provide a basis for the spouses to “live happily ever after.” But a marriage can equally well be founded on much more practical considerations”----as indeed they have been in most societies throughout most of history. Why is romantic love of such importance in the modern world? The reason seems to be that it has some basic functions in maintaining the institution of the nuclear family(小家庭).

1. Romantic love is less frequently found in many non-industrial societies because people in these societies_______.

A . firmly believe that only money can make the world go round

B. fail to bring the imaginative power of the mind into full play

C. fondly think that flights of fancy prevent them from making a correct choice of partner

D. have far more practical considerations to determine who will marry whom

2. The word eligible (in Line5, Para. l), could best be replaced by ____.

A . qualified   B. available  C. chosen  D. influential

3. According to the passage, most Americans _____.

A. expect their daughters to fall in love with a male at first sight

B. regard romantic love as the basis for a successful marriage

C. look up to those who marry for the sake of wealth

D. consider romantic love to be the most desirable thing in the world

4. What can we learn from the second paragraph about romantic love?

A. It is a common occurrence among the old.

B. It is primarily depicted by books.

C. It is characterized by mutual attraction and absorption.

D. It is rejected as unreasonable.

5. The author seems to believe that ___________

A. romantic love makes people unable to think clearly in the process of mate selection

B. only romantic love can make a marriage happy ever after

C. much more practical considerations can also be the basis for a successful marriage

D. romantic love plays an insignificant role in maintaining the institution of the nuclear family
