16．It was days or even weeks since I had been left on the island．My only companion was a dog called Philly which had survived the shipwreck．Memories of what happened were still fresh．
The magnificence of the ship had given us all a false sense of security．As the first signs of the storm started，our captain announced it's nothing much，just another storm．Yet，he was wrong!The storm hit the ship so badly that large holes were made at the sides of the ship．As the freezing water started rushing in，our ship was consumed quickly by the dark water．
My train of thought was disturbed by Philly licking my hand dearly．Are you hungry？I spoke my first words ever since the shipwreck occurred．Woof，woof!Barked Philly enthusiastically．At this moment，my stomach gave a loud growl，too．I could not remember when my last meal was，probably a ten-course dinner on the ship．As I had never fished before，I thought maybe I could try something simpler，like picking fruits．With Philly at my side，armed with a sharp branch，we walked into the forest on the island together．Suddenly I thought I heard noises．Could there be anyone else on this island？I wondered．As we were looking for fruit trees，we chanced upon one that bore yellow，juicy-looking fruit．Philly started barking-we had company．It was a dark-skinned woman，holding a sharp spear，dressed in fur and grass．I backed away from her，afraid that she would be aggressive．Then，I saw that she was trying to save us．Pointing her spear at the fruit tree，she shook her head strongly．
I nodded at her to show I understood what she was saying．Signaling to us to follow her，she turned to walk along a small path that I had never noticed．At the end of the small path，there was a small village．Tears of joy filled my eyes．
24．What happened to the ship the writer had been on？D

D．It sank due to the damage caused by the storm．

C．Smart and faithful．
D．Noisy but enthusiastic．
26．Why did the writer walk into the forest？D

B．To go to a small village．
C．To find someone for help．
D．To look for something to eat．
27．The woman most probably tried to tell the writer thatB．

D．she wasn't afraid of the writer．

15．As my fortieth birthday approaches，inevitable as a new hair-do，I realize how many women friends I've had over the years．Most have come and gone with the changes of life，just like the latest shoe fashions waltz in and out of my closet．
Some of my friends，like some of my shoes，were silly mistakes．They never did fit properly，and they always felt slightly"off"，no matter how hard I tried to fit my feet into them．Others were my absolute favorite for a while，but they wore out or wore off．All style and no substance； the quality just wasn't there．
Then there are my true friends-the ones who，like a pair of fine shoes，never go out of style or out of favor，whose appeal and value just increase with wear and time．These are friends who stay in touch and stand by me-as if they and I have never gone off to a new state，or a new job．Physical distance does not separate us； time does not change the fundamental fact of our friendship； the wear and tear of life does not stop us．The sole still support us； the colors and lines still please us； the uppers，still strong but grown soft，gently bent around feet．Our connection is securely fastened，unaffected by the whirlwind of changes we've each been through，even when life carries us in different directions．
If the comparison fits…
Deborah is the evening shoe，elegant and lovely．She appreciates the finer things，choose only the best，and still looks polished long after the rest of us have drooped．She is a study in elegance and knows the difference between bone，and winter white．From this splendid treasure，I've come to recognize my own appreciation for the finer things in life-and to the realization that I deserved them．
Jane is that pair of essential，timeless pumps that I wear often and would be lost without．With this classic，my basic needs and comfort level are assured-leaving me time and energy for fun．I can move gracefully from day to night，from work to play，from jokes to discussion．My step is light； laughter comes easily and I am ready for adventure．
Georgiana is my pair of standard white Keds-familiar，comfortable and good for all seasons．I've had them since long before．They are part of my childhood．They take me home，and I am a kid again diving into the ocean on a hot summer day．They have been up the hill and through the mud with me．They keep me moving forward，even when putting one foot in front of the other feels like the hardest thing I've ever done．I know I can slip them tomorrow and all days after．I am  indebted to these lovely worn sneakers．
In the shoe rack of life，these are the friends I cherish．They are the base upon which I stand．They accompany me on my chosen path，regardless of where it leads or how bumpy or winding it gets．

13．1always figured that comedians were the best kind of people to hang around with as a kid．They tell funny stories，make joke after joke，and happiness seems never to leave them．But time goes on，and we come to see these same people as clowns on the outside，but crying a river in the inside．Comedy from these people comes from a deep pain and sadness in their lives，or out of a deep-seated anger they have at the world around them．
Look at Richard Pryor，need I say more？Richard seemed to have everything．For Superman，he ended up getting more money than Christopher Reeve did．Yet he said while he was in his forties that the last truly happy moment he remembered in his life was when he was jumping around in the dirt while pretending to be a cowboy at the age of 10．This guy set himself on fire，and he played that for laugh while performing live at the Sunset Strip!Comedy was his constant weapon against pain，and he never held anything back．
The movie Funny People understand very well this gloomy field many comedians have to survive in．It stars Adam Sandler as George Simmons，a famous comedian in the movie．Simmons has it all：a beautiful mansion overlooking the sea，a swimming pool，great cars，and so on．But in his eyes，we see that he is a sad man who has come to truly look down upon himself for what he has become．All the wealth he has collected only serves to separate him from the rest of the world and it makes him defensive when around total strangers who cannot see him as a normal person．But now，he hears from his doctor that he has a terminal disease and has only months left to live．Simmons reacts to this news as if someone took away his blood in the heart，and it makes him clearly see just how much he hates his life．So now he has to make every minute count．Then come a series of funny stories．
Comedy is just life as it is，isn't it？
32．What can we infer about"comedians"according to the text？D
A．Comedians like to get along with kids．
B．Comedians'life is full of jokes．
C．Comedians often cry in their daily life．

33．When was the happiest moment for Richard Pryor？C
A．When he played the part of SupermanⅢ．
B．When he got more money than Christopher Reeve．
C．When he pretended to be a cowboy in the childhood．
D．When he performed live at the Sunset Strip．
34．Why was George Simmons unhappy？A
A．He wasn't accepted by the outside world．
B．He had no friends at all．
C．He spent too much on his house．
D．He was hated by all the strangers around．

8．Last year my summer holiday was ruined by my bringing along a modern convenience that was too convenient for my own good：the iPad．Instead of looking at nature，I checked my e-mail．Instead of paddling a small boat，I followed my Twitter feed（推特简讯）．Instead of reading great novels，I stuck to reading four newspapers each morning．I was behaving as if I were still in the office．My body was on vacation，but my head wasn't．
So this year I made up my mind to try something different：avoiding the Internet．I knew it wouldn't be easy，since I'm bad at self-control．But I was determined．I started by giving the iPad to my wife．
The cellphone signal at our house was worse than in the past，making my attempts at cheating an experience in defeat．I was trapped，forced to go through with my plan．Largely breaking away from e-mail，Twitter and my favorite newspaper websites，I had few ways to connect to the world except for the radio-and how much radio can one listen to，really？I had to do what I had planned to do all along：read books．
This experience has had a happy ending．With determination and the strong support of my wife，I won in my vacation struggle against the Internet，realizing finally that it was I，not the iPad，that was the problem．I knew I had won when we passed a Starbucks and my wife asked if I wanted to stop to use the Wi-Fi．"I don't need it，"I said．
However，as we return to post-vacation life，a harder test begins：Can I continue when I'm back at work？
There are times when the need to know what's being said right now is great．I have no intention of giving up my convenience completely．But I hope to resist the temptation to check my e-mail every five minutes，which leads to checking my Twitter feed and a website or two．
I think a vacation is supposed to help you rest your brain to become more productive．Here I hope this one worked．
