听第10段材料，回答第18～20题。

　　Parents, teachers, and fellow students,

　　We all do feel these things, but we feel much more, too．There is a great feeling of sadness among us today as we realize that this is the last time that we will all be together as members of this school．

　　However, the thing we feel most, I think, is our feeling of thanks．We have some idea of what you, our parents, have done for us, and we have some idea of all the efforts that you, our teachers, have made for us．No words can express how thankful we are to you on this day．

　　We will always remember this day and we will always remember you．Thank you from the bottom of our hearts．

18．What was the speaker?

A．A student who was about to graduate．

B．A student who graduated years ago．

C．A student who had just entered the school．

19．What made the speaker feel sad as well?

A．To have no chance to learn．

B．To begin a new life．

C．To be separated from each other．

20．What was the main purpose of the speech?

A．To say good-bye to their school．

B．To thank their parents and teachers．

C．To encourage all the schoolmates．

This brief book is aimed at high school students, but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life．

Its formal, serious style closely matches its content, a school-masterly book on schooling．The author, W．H．Armstrong, starts with the basics: reading and writing．In his opinion, reading doesn’t just mean recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information, digesting it and incorporating it into oneself just as digests a sandwich and makes it a part of himself．The goal is to bring the information back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees．Reading and writing cannot be completely separated from each other; in fact, the aim of reading is to express the information you have got from the text．I’ve seen it again and again: someone who can’t express an idea after reading a text is just as ineffective as someone who hasn’t read it at all．

Only a third of the book remains after that discussion, which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studying languages, math, science and history．He generally handles these topics thoroughly(透彻地) and equally, except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion(激情) regarding history．Well, he was a history teacher — if conveyed only a tenth of his passion to his students, that was a hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across．To my disappointment, in this part of the book he ignores the arts．As a matter of fact, they demand all the concentration and study that math and science do, though the study differs slightly in kind．Although it’s commonly believed that the arts can only be naturally acquired, actually, learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics．

My other comment is that the text aged．The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s — none of the references(参考文献)seem newer than the late 1950s．As a result, the discussion misses the entire computer age．

These are small points, though, and don’t affect the main discussion．I recommend it to any student and any teacher, including the self-taught student．

According to Armstrong, the goal of reading is to________．

A．gain knowledge and expand one’s view

B．understand the meaning between the lines

C．express ideas based on what one has read

D．get information and keep it alive in memory

The author of the passage insists that learning the arts_________．

A．requires great efforts B．demands real passion

C．is less natural than learning maths D．is as natural as learning a language

What is a shortcoming of Armstrong’s work according to the author?

A．Some ideas are slightly contradictory．

B．There is too much discussion on studying science．

C．The style is too serious．

D．It lacks new information．

This passage can be classified as________．

A．an advertisement B．a book review

C．a feature story D．a news report

William Butler Yeats, a most famous Irish writer, was born in Dublin on June 13, 1865. His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. In fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his family—both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama (戏剧) and poetry.

Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didn’t lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.

Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats’s poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.

He had not enjoyed a major public life since winning the Nobel Price in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would who probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet Auden wrote, among others, the following liners:

Earth, receive an honored guest:

William Yeats is laid to rest.

Let the Irish vessel (船) lie

Emptied of its poetry.

1. Which of the following can describe Yeats’s family?

A. It filled Yeats’s childhood with laughter.

B. It was shocked by Yeats’s choice.

C. It was a typically wealthy family.

D. It had an artistic atmosphere.

2. According to the passage, what do we know about Yeats’s life?

A. Yeats founded the first Irish theater.

B. Yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetry.

C. Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s.

D. Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Noble Prize.

3.What kind of feeling is expressed in W. H. Auden’s lines?

A. Envy. B. Sympathy.

C. Emptiness. D. Admiration.

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. Yeats’ literary achievements.

B. Yeats’ historical influence.

C. Yeats’ artistic ambition.

D. Yeats’ national honor.

There is_______ “W”in the word“woman”,and _______“M”is the third letter of the word.
