阅读下面短文，从每题所给四个选项中选出最佳答案。
William Shakespeare, who is perhaps the greatest writer in the history of the world, was looked upon in his own day as little more than a writer of popular plays. Yet in this lies the key to his greatness. The theatre of his day gave him freedom, and, he in return gave it the best that was in him.
Shakespeare was born in 1564, far from London, in the little English town of Stratford on the river Avon. He is usually believed to have been born on April 23, but all that is known for certain is that he was baptized(受洗) on Sunday, April 26．Stratford was a busy little town, and Shakespeare's father, a rich businessman, had been its mayor for a time. Shakespeare grew up in a comfortable house on Henley Street with several small brothers and sisters.
All the boys in Stratford went to the same school as soon as they could read and write, and they learned the same subject：Latin. Perhaps Shakespeare was lucky not to go on to a university. Instead, at 18 he married Anne Hathaway who was 8 years older than him and was the daughter of a neighboring farmer. They had three children.
After the birth of the children, there's record of what Shakespeare did from 1585 to 1592 until he was mentioned as a London actor. It was in London, not Stratford, that Shakespeare got his education, learning not only the ways of the theatre but nearly everything else. He read books and met many people－foreigners, old soldiers, the whole lively civilization of that time. London was a port city of 250, 000 people, and Shakespeare could not have come to it at a better time.
1．Shakespeare is usually believed to have been born on ________.
A. Monday B. Wednesday C. Thursday D. Friday
2．In the school of Stratford, Shakespeare learned ________.
[ ]
A．how to read and write
B．knowledge required to enter a university
C．how to act and write plays
D．Latin
3．Why did the author say “Perhaps Shakespeare was lucky not to go to a university ”?
[ ]
A．Because at that time, universities were not very good.
B．Because he might not have been a great playwright if he had gone to a university.
C．Because so he could marry Anne Hathaway.
D．Because he was not suitable to be a university student.
4．The best title for the article is ________.
[ ]
A．Shakespeare's early life.
B．How Shakespeare became a great writer
C．The children of Shakespeare
D．The family of. Shakespeare
5．Which of the following is NOT true?
[ ]
A．Shakespeare was regarded as a great playwright in his own day.
B．Shakespeare was the biggest child in his family.
C．Shakespeare married a neighboring girl.
D．Shakespeare's life in London was very useful to his later playwriting.

请阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请将答案填写在答题卡标号为56-60的相应位置上.注意：E=AB; F=CD
Here are five letters from readers listed in 56-60. All the greetings and signatures are left out. Suppose you are a secretary of the magazine CR (Crazy English Reader), for each one find a suitable reply from A-F. Mark the correct letter (A-F) on your answer sheet. There is one extra reply which you don’t need to use.
1.I am a reader of CR. Recently I found students translate some articles of CR. I appreciate your offering an opportunity to us beginners to ractice using English. So I want to ask how they can obtain these articles and translate them for you, and what qualities you require. Thank you.
2.I love your Crazy English Reader magazine! It provides valuable data for work in our English teaching. My wife and I are teaching Conversational English so I’ve been giving you a bit of a plug at our middle school. I told the students to “get a copy!” It’s good stuff! Fantastic!
3.I’m one of Yao’s fans from Guangzhou. I have read the Yao Ming articles in No. 7 Crazy English Reader. I want to know his correspondence address and the official website. Could you please tell me? Thank you very much indeed.
4.First of all, I must say thank you very much to all the CE Reader editors who give us a really good English magazine. Secondly, I want to give you a piece of advice. In each passage, you give us some new words with their Chinese translation. However, as far as my knowledge is concerned, I think you should give us not only the Chinese meaning but also the English meaning so as to know the words more accurately. Thank you!
5.I am an editor of the English Monthly of our school. I have a question that is how to say the position of the paper e.g., 总编，责任总编 and so on. I hope you can tell me the words in English. The more the better. Thank you so much! I love the book very much. Now, I do this work, and I need to study more information about this work. If you have time, please email me. Thank you.
A. Thank you for your suggestion. We may try that in some future issues of CR. I think the best way to improve your reading vocabulary is to be able to guess the meaning of the word from the other words around it. Also, if you have an English dictionary, it’s good to look up the words and then mark them down in a notebook and review them later on. Then if you really want to learn how to use the words, try using them in conversation or in writing. Hope this helps.
B. The best way for you to learn the different positions in a newspaper or magazine is to get a copy of an all-English magazine or newspaper and then copy down the different positions. There are also titles such as Managing Editor, reporter, Copy Editor, Photo Editor and Layout Editor. I hope this helps. If you have some more specific questions, you can send them to me and I’ll try to answer.
C. The best way to reach Yao directly is through his home team, the Shanghai Sharks. You can write to him at 2570 Xietu Road, Shanghai. For more information on Yao, you can look at the sports section in sina.com. I hope this helps. Another idea is that you can try to write to Yao while he’s living and playing in Houston. You can try to reach Yao in the US at: Yao Ming Compaq Centre 10 Houston, TX 77046.
D. Thank you for being such a careful reader of CR. Yes, you’re right we made a mistake in the writing of that Chinese word. Each issue we try to read very carefully each article and its translation to make sure there are no mistakes, but unfortunately a few mistakes always get by. But you encourage us to keep improving, so thank you.
E. Yes, we do have several students who help us translate some of the articles in our magazine. We contact these translators directly after interviewing their translation work. Afterwards we assign the articles to them for translation. If you are interested in being one of our translators you can send us some information about yourself and a sample of your translation work.
F. Thank you for helping us to promote CR. We’re glad it’s helpful to your students. We always try to include articles that reflect real life. It’s our hope that CR will not only improve students’ English but also open up a different worldview.

阅读下列短文，从所给的四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
People used to say, “The hand that rocks (摇) the cradle (摇篮) rules the world” and “Behind every successful man there's a woman.” Both these sayings mean the same thing: Men rule the world, but their wives rule them.
Most of the American women like making their husbands and sons successful, but some of them want something for themselves. They want good jobs. When they work they want to be better paid. They want to be as successful as men.
The American women's liberation movement was started by women who don't want to stand behind successful men. They don't want to be told that certain jobs of offices are closed to them. They refuse to work side by side with men who do the same work for a higher pay.
A liberated woman must be proud of being a woman and have confidence (信心) in herself. If somebody says to her, “You've come a long way, baby,” She'll smile and answer, “Not nearly as far as I'm going to go, baby.”
This movement is quite new, and many American women do not agree.
But it has already made some important changes in women's lives──in men's lives too.

[ ]

[ ]
A． you have walked far from your home
B． she has done a lot and succeeded greatly in freeing herself.
C． she has worked outside far from her home
D． you really love me, dear.
3． “Not nearly as far as I'm going to go, baby,” means _________.
[ ]
A． the way isn't very far
B． she must go even farther to work
C． she isn't so satisfied with her success
D． she is very much satisfied with the long way she covered
4． According to the passage, the writer _________ the women's liberation.

“We're more than half way now: it's only two miles farther to the inn (小客栈),” said the driver.
“I'm glad of that!” answered the stranger. He wanted to say more but the east wind blew right down his throat whenever he tried to speak.
“You don't feel the cold so much at twenty below zero out in the Western Country. There's none of the coldness,” he said, adding, “and wetness.”
“You'll have a cold drive going back,” he said anxiously, and put up his hand for the twentieth time to see if his coat collar (衣领) was as close to the back of his neck as possible. He had wished a dozen times that he were in his warm old hunter's clothes which he had often worn in the worst of weather in the Northwest.
“I shall not have to go back!” said the girl in a loud voice, with eager pleasantness. “I'm on my way home now. I drove over early just to meet you at the train. We had word that someone was coming to the inn.”
