A项和B项都是"情态动词+动词原形"表示对现在情况的推测;C项和D项都是"情态动词+have+done"表示对过去情况的推测或虚拟;"should have stayed      过去本应该熬夜太迟了但事实上没熬夜太迟"表示对过去情况的虚拟;"must have stayed     过去肯定熬夜太迟了"表示对过去情况的肯定推测;根据上下文语境可知,上句表示‘在会上Peter看上去有点累而且有一点心不在焉的',答句中回答‘他一定是熬夜他迟了',因此D项符合语境,故选D.

11.Recently I spoke to some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated,and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.
Given that I teach students who are trained to be doctors,I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without"outside help"."What kind of help is that?"I asked,expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out.
"Surgery(外科手术)",one replied.I was pretty alarmed by that response.It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job.One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height."They break your legs,put in special extending screws,and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it regrows.You can get at least 5 cm taller!"
At that point,I was shocked.I am short.I can't deny that,but I don't think I would put myself through months of pain just to be a few centimeters taller.I don't even bother to wear shoes with thick soles,as I'm not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!
It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting"perfection",and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality.
No one is born perfect,yet magazines,TV shows and movies present images of thin,tall,beautiful people as being the norm(标准).Advertisements for slimming aids,beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers,further creating an idea that"perfection"is a requirement,and that it must be purchased,no matter what the cost.In my opinion,skills,rather than appearance,should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career.

12.She once said:"When people ask me if writing has been a hard or easy road I always answer with the famous saying,"the end is nothing; the road is all.'"That is what I mean when I say writing has been a pleasure.I have never faced the type-writer (打字机) with the thought that one more task had to be done."
Like most writers,Willa Cather did not write books for the money that they brought her,but rather for the pleasure that came in their writing.Her works were,like her,simple and full of the vigor (活力)of her days in Nebraska,where she grew from childhood to young womanhood and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the Great Plains with its wild flowers,wheat fields and rivers.
"It's a rather strange thing about the flat country,"she wrote later."It takes hold of you,or it leaves you perfectly cold.A great many people find it very dull; they like a church tower,an old factory,a waterfall country all made to look like a German,Christmas card…But when I come to the open plains,something happens.I'm home.I breathe differently."

35.What did Cather mean by"the end is nothing; the road is all"?D
A.Writing is the only path to success.
B.I feel happy when I finish writing a book.
C.I enjoy writing whether it is hard or easy.
D.Writing itself,not its result,is important.
36.What was the place like where Cather grew up?D
A.It was cold,plain and without a church.
B.It was a colorful world of wild flowers.
C.It was like a German Christmas card
D.It was vast,open,flat and wild.
37.When she said"It takes hold of you,or it leaves you perfectly cold",Willa Gather meantA.

C.some find the place warm; others find it cold
D.some find the place peaceful; others find it wild
38.What happens when Cather comes to the open plains?D
A.She breathes differently from others:
B.She wants to make the place her home.
C.She finds the place similar to her home.
D.She feels completely comfortable.
16.(第三、四层次学校的学生做此题)
It was dark,and light snow was coming down.He found an old lady needed help.Even with the smile on his face,she was worried.No one had stopped to help.Was he going to hurt her?He didn't look safe,but poor and hungry.He could see that she was frightened,standing out there in the cold.He knew how she felt.He said,"I'm here to help you,Ma'am.Why don't you wait in the car where it's warm?By the way,my name is Joe."Well,all she had was a flat tire,but for an old lady,that was bad enough.Joe crawled  under the car.Soon he was able to change the tire.
As he finished his work,she asked him how much she owed him.Any amount would have been all right with her.Joe never thought about the money.Ever since the factory closed,he'd been unemployed,though he never quit looking.This was helping someone in need.He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back,the next time she saw someone who needed help,she could give that person the help that they needed,and Joe added"…and think of me".He waited until she started her car and drove off.It had been a cold and sad day,but he felt good.
A few miles down the road the lady saw a small café.She wanted to have a hot coffee before she went home.The restaurant looked dark and dirty.A waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair.She had a sweet smile.The lady noticed that the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant(怀孕的),but she never let the pressure and pains change her attitude.The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so kind to a stranger.Then she remembered Joe.After the lady finished her meal,and the waitress went to get her change from a hundred-dollar bill,the lady went away.She was gone by the time the waitress came back.She wondered where the lady could be,and noticed something written on a napkin.It said,"You don't owe me a thing.Someone once helped me out,the way I'm helping you.If you really want to pay me back,here's what you do.Don't let the chain of love end with you."
That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed,she was thinking about the money and what the lady had written.How could she have known how much she and her husband needed it?With the baby born next month,it was going to be hard.She knew how worried her husband was,and as he lay sleeping next to her,she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and low,"Everything's going to be all right; I love you,Joe."
