【题目】One of my fondest memories as a child is going by the river and sitting idly on the bank. There I would enjoy the peace and quiet, watch the water rush downstream and listen to the singing of birds and the rustling of leaves in the trees. I would also watch the bamboo trees bend under pressure from the wind and watch them return gracefully to their original position after the wind had died down.

When I think about the bamboo trees’ ability to bounce back or return to its original position, the word “resilience” comes to my mind. When used in reference to a person, this word means the ability to readily recover from shock, depression or any other negative situation that stretches the limits of a person’s emotions.

Have you ever felt like you are about to lose control of your emotions? Have you ever felt like you are at your breaking point? Thankfully, you have survived the experience to live to talk about it.

During the experience you probably felt a mix of emotions that threatened your health. You felt emotionally tired, mentally exhausted and you most likely bored unpleasant physical symptoms.

Life is a mixture of good times and bad times, happy moments and unhappy moments. The next time you are experiencing one of those bad times or unhappy moments that take you close to your breaking point, bend, but don’t break. Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you.

A measure of hope will take you through the unpleasant moments. Will hope for a better tomorrow or a better situation, things may not be as bad as they seem to be. The unpleasant moment may be easier to deal with if the end result is worth having.

If the situation gets tough and you are at your breaking point, show resilience. Like the bamboo trees, bend, but don’t break!

【1】What does the underlined word “resilience” mean in Paragraph 2?

A. The ability to overcome any difficulty.

B. The quality of hoping for a better tomorrow.

C. The quality of being brave at the breaking point.

D. The ability to recover easily and quickly from unpleasant or damaging events.

【2】Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A. Life is like a bamboo tree that never breaks.

B. Whatever difficulties we may meet with in our life, we can bend, but can never break.

C. Life is a mixture of good times and bad times, happy moments and unhappy moments.

D. If you get over your breaking point, you can survive to live longer and more happily than others.

【3】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A. The author was an idle child when he was living near the river.

B. We should try our best not to let our bad times get the best of us.

C. Our being likely to lose control of our emotions is common in our life.

D. We should always believe things may not be as bad as they seem to be.

【题目】Women are overtaking men in education and in the workplace, a senior Government minister said yesterday – creating a new generation of stay-at-home fathers.

Universities minister David Willetts predicted relationships and traditional household structures will be transformed as the female’s power ahead, and women earn more than their male partners.

Successful women will have to “marry down” by choosing partners less qualified than them – and may increasingly select men based on how supportive they might be to their careers, rather than whether they can support them financially.

And experts say women will often become the main breadwinners, with more men staying at home to look after children. Mr. Willetts said there was clear evidence from schools that boys are “lagging behind”, and are being overtaken by female students at university．He said: “I am not against women having those advantages but there is now a rather striking gap, if you look at the statistics, where it looks as if approximately 50 percent of women are graduating from university by the time they’re 30 and perhaps about 40 percent of men.” He added: “It may lead to changes in the patterns of household living．So there are some deep questions here.” The Philadelphia-based Pew Research Centre study, published in The Atlantic magazine, suggests female graduates are being put in similar situation to that faced for some time by black women．In America, 70 percent of black women have no husband and there are twice as many black women as black men with university degrees.

Many educated British women believe there is already a dearth of traditional husbands．Claire Davis, 33, who works in financial services and lives in south London, told The Times: “I have a good job and my own flat and I can pretty much do what I want, but a lot of them I meet aren't really of the right quality. If I look at the friends I went to university with, the men don't tend to be doing as well as the women.”

【1】David Willetts’ attitude toward women’s overtaking men in education and in the workplace could be described as .

A．worried B．positive

C．supportive D．excited

【2】Claire Davis’ example is used to indicate that .

A．a lot of women prefer to be single

B．black women do not want to be married

C．women are less excellent than men in general

D．excellent women have difficulty in looking for a good husband

【3】The underlined word “dearth” in the last paragraph most probably means .

A．shortage B．respect

C．oversupply D．pride

【4】The best title of this passage would probably be .

A．Successful Women Forced to “Marry Down”

B．A Poor Generation of Stay-at-home Fathers

C．The Marriages’ Influence on Economy

D．The Advantages of the Traditional Family Pattern

I visited my aunt in the countryside near the city last week. I was surprising to see that great changes had been taken place in the countryside. Take my aunt’s family for example. We supply precious trees and flowers to the stores in the city and have ten worker working for them. Their family’s income reached as much 100 000 yuan last year. Not only did they have a house, a car and computers, they can also afford a trip abroad every year. When asking what else they needed most, they said that they wanted to learn a few English so that they could do business with foreigners directly. I think, with time goes by, my cousin can use that he has learned from university to help them with overseas trade.
