这是一篇夹叙夹议的记叙文。通过与父亲一起钓鱼的一次亲身经历,小男孩受到了深刻的道德教育,从而影响了他的一生。道德是简单的对和错的问题,但要付诸行动却很难。尤其是在无人知晓的情况下,我们是否会自觉以道德的标准来衡量我们的言行呢?人应当以“诚实为本,道德至上”。
1.B   由下文可知是鲈鱼季节开放的前。
2.B   他是去钓鱼而非其它。
3.A   当鱼杆向下弯的时候,他知道线的另一端一定钓到了一条大鱼。
4.A   在线的另一端。on the one hand, on the other hand 意为“一方面……;另一方面……” at the either side “在任何一方”。
5.C   小男孩钓鱼技巧纯熟,父亲看了眼神充满赞赏。
6.D   被钓着的鱼当然是筋疲力尽。
7.B   但他钓着的是一条鲈鱼。此处用but 表示转折,因为鲈鱼是禁止垂钓。
8.C     “你得把它放回去,孩子,”他说道。此处指放回去。A、B、D项均不相符。
9.A    even though 表示让步“即使”;其句意为:即使没有人看到他们,更无从得知他们何时钓到了鱼。
10.A     tell“分辨;辨别”常与can, could, be able to 连用。
11.C   从父亲不可动摇的语气中,他知道这个决定没有商量余地。即“固定了的”。
12.C    the black water 意为“漆黑的水中”。其句意为“他慢慢地将鱼钩从大鲈鱼的唇上取下,然后蹲下将鱼放回水中”。他在湖上钓鱼,不可能把鱼放回到河流或海里,更不是放入容器里。
13.B   鱼儿摆动着它强健的身躯,消失在水中。fled 逃跑;floated漂浮;swim游。
14.B   他猜得没错。此处肯定上文所说的事“他可能再也看不到这么大的鱼了”
15.A    land 意为“将鱼钓上岸”。saw指表示看见;cast洒网;threw投,掷。
16.D    the same fish指被他自己钓着的那条鱼。但每次他面临道德难题而举棋不定的时候,他的眼前总是浮现出那条鱼。
17.C   此处是强调句型。意为:要付诸行动却很难。
18.B    do right 做得对、得当。do wrong做得不对;do good做好事;do harm危害。此句意为“在没人瞧见的时候,我们是否仍始终如一,一丝不苟”
19.A   由下文“For we would have learned the truth.”可知此处是“被教给”。意为:在我们还小的时候,如果有人要我们把鱼放回去,我们会这样做
20.B   此处是形容词作状语,表示状态。不能用副词。意为:正确的决定在我们的记忆里变得清新。

What is freedom? It seems like such a simple question. Freedom is being able to do what you want to do. Allow me to explain it.
I’m tired of working for a living. I’d rather collect taxes. So that’s what I’m going to do: collect a kind of tax. You are ordered to estimate your income from the past 12 months, and write me a check for 1%. I have provided a mailing address for this purpose on my contact page …
What? You have a problem with my plan? Oh, I see. If you have to send me a check for the tax, then I have hurt your freedom to spend that money as you see fit. We have a conflict! And our basic problem is: we cannot enjoy freedom at the same time; we must settle for a limit. But what limit?
Libertarians (自由论者) believe freedom should be based on self-control. They describe freedom as being able to do what you want to do as long as it doesn’t influence the equal right of others to do what they want to do. That is, freedom is being able to do what you like as long as you do not harm another person’s life, liberty or property.
You can build a set of legal and ethical (道德的) rules on the principle of self-control, and libertarians do. Their request for self-control often becomes more important than common sense, or even freedom itself.
The definition rules out the freedom to steal, murder, and so on. Otherwise, you can do whatever you want. There is no problem until you realize that taxation is theft, that war is murder, and that national service is a form of slavery. Since only the government has a legal right to use force, libertarians focus on making the government smaller, or even going without it. The libertarians’ definition of freedom is thus freedom from the government. Isn’t it ridiculous?
小题1:According to the first three paragraphs, the author’s idea of collecting taxes is _________.
A.reasonableB.responsibleC.unacceptableD.understandable
小题2:The author takes tax-collecting as an example in the passage to prove that freedom is _________.
A.unrealB.unbelievableC.achievableD.limited
小题3:In the opinion of libertarians, freedom is realized mainly by _________.
A.the lawB.self-controlC.ethical rulesD.common sense
小题4:Which of the following statements is supported by libertarians according to the passage?
A.National service should be canceled.
B.People can do whatever they want.
C.The government should have more power.
D.They should be governed by the government.
What happens to mother-daughter relationships when girls become teenagers. It seems that girls go from playing “dress up”, to arguing with their mothers about how they should dress.
When a girl is 3-4 years old they love to “dress up” in their mothers’ clothes, put on their mothers’ makeup, cook, and do whatever else their mother does. This is the time when she can be classified as being a mama’s girl.
How come girls change so much from childhood to the teenage years? Many parents seek the answer when their daughter becomes a teen. Often when a girl enters high school her behavior changes as well as her physical appearance.
When I was young I always liked playing “dress up”. It made me feel older and more like my mother. Even when I entered middle school, I still depended a lot on my mother to choose and buy my clothes. Once I entered high school there was a big change. To me, my mother’s clothes were no longer “in fashion”, and neither was her opinion. I started becoming interested in boys and tried to improve the way I looked. It was not that I wanted to look cool, I just wanted to look my age.
This is the time that the mother-daughter relationship can take a turn. It’s difficult for a mother to know that her daughter is no longer totally dependent on her.
When the daughter starts wearing revealing clothing, dating, and just wanting to be more independent, a mother starts to feel left out, or not needed. The number of arguments increases, and the number of times when the mother and daughter get along happily decreases.
When these things start to happen, it is a sign that the daughter wants her independence and the freedom to grow up.
When you notice how much your relationship had changed, try to believe positive things come out of the change. Put all the negatives aside and concentrate on what your mother is feeling instead of just on what you’re feeling.
When it seems too hard to handle, take some quiet time and write out your feelings. Maybe at another time, you can share them with your mother and try to find a way to better your relationship as mother and daughter. If you don’t feel comfortable sharing your feelings, at least write them down so you can get them out. It’s better than keeping them bottled up inside.
小题1:The girls would argue with their mothers because ________.
A.they need more independence
B.mothers want daughters to be mama’s girls again
C.they think their mothers’ clothes are no longer in fashion
D.all of the above
小题2:From the passage, we know that ________.
A.the teenage period is a sensitive part in human life
B.the parents can’t get the answer why their daughters change a lot
C.they can get on well only in talking, no matter what mothers or daughters do
D.mothers should concentrate on their own feelings
小题3:A “mama’s girl” will Not________.
A.dress up in her mother’s clothes
B.depend a lot on her mother to choose and buy her clothes
C.like wearing revealing clothing
D.think her mother’s clothes are in fashion
小题4:When the daughter starts wanting to be more independent, ________.
A.a mother starts to feel left out
B.it is the time when mother and daughter get on joyfully increases
C.she wants to look cool
D.All of the above

Children have their own rules in playing games. They seldom need a referee(裁判) and rarely trouble to keep scores. They don’t care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck, so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compare. They also enjoyed games that move in stages, in which each stage, the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides, or the determining of which side shall start, is almost a game in itself.
Grown-ups can hardly find children’s game exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple game again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinary afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.
It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.
