题目内容

A well-known speaker started off his speech by holding up a $20 bill. In the room of 202, he asked, “Who would 31 this $20 bill?”

Hands started 32 up. He said, “I am going to 33 this $20 bill to one of you, but first, let me do this.”

He crumpled (压皱) the 20-dollar 34 . He then asked, “Who still wants it?” Still the hands were up in the air. “Well,” he replied, “what if I do this?” He dropped it on the 35 and started to grind (磨碎)it into the floor with his 36 . He picked it up, now crumpled and 37 .

“Now, who still wants it?”　 38 the hands went into the air.

“My friends, you have all 39 a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did 40 the money, you still 41 it because it did not 42 in value. It was still worth $20.”

“Many times in our lives, we are 43 , crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we 44 and the circumstances (环境) that come our way. We feel as though we are worth 45 ; but no matter what happened or what will happen, you will 46 lose your value (价值).”

“Dirty or 47 , crumpled or finely folded (折叠), you are still priceless to those who 48 you. The 49 of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE.”

“You are 50 — don’t ever forget it.”

“No man is an island”is a well-known line from John Donne’s Devotion, written more than three hundred years ago．Even now people still agree with him．No one can live a completely isolated life．Without other people, life became empty and sad．We all need to have friends.

For some of us, though making friends is not difficult, feeling shy, we may not want to make the first move．It is also difficult at times to keep the friends we already have.

There are many books about friendship, but Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People, written in 1936, is the most famous．This “how to” book about getting along with other people became a best seller．It was later put into 28 languages.

Dale Carnegie’s advice seems to be simple, but can his advice help you? Do you need to change the way you act? Here is the list of advice from his book:

（1）Be friendly and polite.

Always greet with a smile．Begin with “excuse me ” or “would you please” when ．Remember to say “thank you” and try to be as helpful as you can.

（2）Go out of your way to be nice.

Find some time to do special things for other people．Making some soup for a sick neighbour may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your neighbour feel a lot better.

（3）Remember names.

They say that the sweetest music to a person’s ears is the sound of his or her own name.

（4）Be open-minded.

Try to understand other people’s ways and ideas and learn something from them.

（5）Listen patiently． When someone is talking to you, look at him or her, listen carefully and say something when necessary．

Chaplin, one of the greatest and funniest actors, was born in London in 1889. When a poor boy, he was often seen waiting outside the London theatres, hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance, and above all, he knew how to make people laugh. But he couldn’t get work and therefore wandered about the city streets.

Charlie Chaplin first acted when he was five. He broke into show business because his mother, a music-hall performer, lost her voice during the performance and had to leave the stage, and Charlie went on and sang a well-known song. Halfway through the song, a shower of money poured onto the stage. Charlie stopped singing and told audiences he would pick the money first and then finish the song. The audiences laughed. This was the first of millions of laughs in Charlie Chaplin’s fabulous(神话) career.

Twenty years later the same Chaplin became the greatest and best loved comedian in the world. His dream came true in the world. His dream came true in the end. Chaplin became world-famous and almost a king in the world of the film.

Even people who don’t understand English can enjoy Chaplin’s films because they are mostly silent. The equipment for adding sound to films had not yet been developed. The development of films with sound became a problem for Chaplin, as he was uncertain about making films with dialogues. Instead, he coninued to make films without dialogue, but he added music, which he wrote himself. It isn’t what he says that makes us laugh. His comedy doesn’t depend on words. It depends on little actions which mean the same thing to people the world over.

Chaplin lived most of his life in America and the last years in Switzerland, where he was buried at Christmas 1977, at the age of eighty-eight. There was sadness all over the world at the news of his death.

In his book, Chaplin tells us how to succeed in life. He says, “You have to believe in yourself. That’s the secret.”

Liverpool, my hometown, is a unique city. It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World Heritage （遗产） Site.

I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey. Blanketed in mist （薄雾）, Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the sounds of sea-birds, and appeared unbelievably charming. When I headed toward the centre, I found myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe. It is not hard to imagine why, on first seeing the city, most visitors would be overpowered by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are solid signs of Liverpool’s history.

As if stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries （美术馆） than most cities in Britain. At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has best collections of Victorian paintings in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England. However, culture is more than galleries. Liverpool offers many music events. As Britain’s No.1 music city, it has the biggest city music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world. Liverpool is also well-known for its football and other sports events. Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors, madding the city a place of wonder.

As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from around the world. When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool’s famous Philharmonic pub （酒馆）. It is a monument to perfection, and a heritage attraction itself.

Being a World Heritage Site, my home city is certainly a place of “outstanding universal value”. It is a treasure house with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.

1.Visitors who see the city for the first time would be deeply impressed by __________.

A. its charming banks

B. its famous museums

C. its wonderful palaces

D. its attractive buildings

2.The third paragraph is developed mainly by __________.

A. providing different examples

B. following the order of space

C. making comparisons

D. analyzing causes

3.The author uses the Philharmonic pub to prove that _________.

A. Liverpool is a well-known city for its restaurants

B. Liverpool is an impressive place full of attraction

C. a pub is a wonderful place for visitors to relax themselves

D. a pub is a perfect choice for visitors to complete their journey

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. The universal value of the world heritage in Liverpool.

B. The exciting experience of the author in Liverpool.

C. The special cultural atmosphere of Liverpool.

D. The beautiful historic sites of Liverpool.

Having a husband means an extra seven hours of housework each week for women, according to a new study. For men, getting married saves an hour of housework a week. “It’s a well-known pattern,” said lead researcher Frank Stafford at University of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research. “Men usually work more outside the home, while women take on more of the housework.”

He points out that differences among households（家庭）exist. But in general, marriage means more housework for women and less for men. “And the situation gets worse for women when they have children,” Stafford said.

Overall, times are changing in the American home. In 1976, women busied themselves with 26 weekly hours of sweeping-and-dusting work, compared with 17 hours in 2005. Men are taking on more housework, more than doubling their housework hours from six in 1976 to 13 in 2005.

Single women in their 20s and 30s did the least housework, about 12 weekly hours, while married women in their 60s and 70s did the most-about 21 hours a week.

Men showed a somewhat different pattern, with older men picking up the broom more often than younger men. Single men worked the hardest around the house, more than that of all other age groups of married men.

Having children increases housework even further. With more than three children, for example, wives took on more of the extra work, clocking about 28 hours a week compared with husbands’10 hours.

1.According to the “well-known pattern” in Paragraph 1, a married man___________.

A. takes on heavier work B. does more housework

C. is the main breadwinner D. is the master of the house

2.How many hours of housework did men do every week in the 1970s?

A. About 23. B. About 26.

C. About 13. D. About y.

3.What kind of man is doing most housework according to the text?

A. An unmarried man. B. An older married man.

C. A younger married man. D. A married man with children.

4.What can we conclude from Stafford’s research?

A. Marriage gives men more freedom.

B. Marriage has effects on job choices.

C. Housework sharing changes over time.

D. Having children means doubled housework.
