I had worked long and hard on this project.Knowing that it was finally complete gave me great satisfaction.“Perfect！”I said.“Now，all I have to do is to keep the dogs off of it.” I went about setting up barriers(障碍)using old fence，broken chairs，flowerpots，and anything I could find so as to avoid footprints both on the oil paint and our carpet.It worked perfectly.
Just before returning to the house and to a much needed shower，I took one last look at this fine work of art.“What is that？”I said.“Where did that come from？”
Clearly marked and evenly spaced across the entire area，I found tiny marks running in straight lines.I carefully stepped to our flower garden.It was there I found several of the small markings.Now，almost frozen in place by this stunning(令人震惊的)discovery，I remained in position so as to prevent further damaging my work.Just then，off to my left，it appeared.A chipmunk(花栗鼠)．He was as stunned as I was.We stood there face to face looking at each other，wondering who would make the first move.
The warm，wet air was now getting the best of me.Sweat now ran freely over my head，and in poor timing(适时)into my eyes.I reached up to rub them and when I opened my eyes he was gone.
My only satisfaction was in thinking that when he returned home he tracked oily footprints into his own home.And，hoping he was married，his wife would not let him live it down for the rest of his life.I stood up，shook my head，and laughing about it all walked into my house.
Yes，I tracked oil on the carpet.I am married.My wife will not let me live it down for the rest of my life.

Arthur Miller (1915－2005)is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century.Miller's father had moved to the USA from Austria-Hungary，drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”．However，he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.
Miller's most famous play，Death of a Salesman，is a powerful attack on the American system，with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth.In Willy Loman，the hero of the play，we see a man who has got into trouble with this system.Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment：if he can't do the work，then he is no good to his employer，the Wagner Company，and he must go.Willy is painfully aware of this，and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success.He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.
When it was first staged in 1949，the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews, and it won the Tony Award for Best Play，the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award，and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.
Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury，Connecticut, on the evening of February 10,2005，the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.

Today，we complete our story about the influential English writer William Shakespeare.He wrote plays and poems during the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries，which remain very popular today.
During earlier times，people would probably have learned several ancient Roman and Greek plays.It was not unusual for writers to produce more current versions of these works.For example，in Shakespeare's play “The Comedy of Errors”，Shakespeare borrowed certain details from the ancient Roman writer Plautus.For his play “Macbeth”，Shakespeare most likely used a work on Scottish history by Raphael Holinshed for information.Shakespeare might have borrowed from other writers，but the intensity of his imagination and language made the plays his own.While many plays by other writers of his time have been forgotten，Shakespeare and his art live on.
Shakespeare was also influenced by the world around him.He described the sights and sounds of London in his plays.His works include observations about political struggles，the fear of diseases，and the popular language of the city's tradesmen.Shakespeare's knowledge of the English countryside is also clear.His works include descriptions of deep forests，local flowers，and the ancient popular traditions of rural people.
It would be impossible to list all of the ways in which Shakespeare's works have influenced the world culture.But the first and greatest example would be his great influence on the English language.During his time，the English language was changing.Many new words from other languages were being added.Shakespeare used his sharp mind and poetic (富诗意的) inventiveness to create hundreds of new words and rework old ones.For example，he created the noun forms of “critic” ，“mountaineer” and “eyeball”．Many common expressions in English come from his plays，including “pomp and circumstance(隆重的仪式)” from “Othello” ，“full circle (绕圈子)” from “King Lear”，etc.The list of cultural creations influenced by Shakespeare is almost endless.From paintings to television to music and dance，Shakespeare was well represented.Shakespeare's plays have been translated into every major language in the world.
Shakespeare became a well-known writer during a golden age of theater.His years of hard work paid off.
39．What can we infer from the passage?
A．Many of Shakespeare's works were influenced by earlier writings.
B．Shakespeare was hard-working when he was a student.
C．The experience of living in London helped a lot with Shakespeare's works.
D．Shakespeare became rich later because of the popularity of his works.
40．Shakespeare might have learnt some information from ancient Roman works in________.
A．“King Lear” B．“The Comedy of Errors”
C．“Macbeth” D．“Othello”
41．Shakespeare's greatest influence should be on ________.
A．the English language
B．paintings
C．television
D．music and dance
42．The passage is mainly about________.
A．an introduction to Shakespeare's life and his works

C．how culture influenced Shakespeare and he influenced culture
D．Shakespeare's greatest influence on the world culture

Whether you're studying for a test，reviewing paperwork for your job，or trying to understand a journal article，reading comprehension is involved in.Unfortunately，when the reading material is difficult，our reading comprehension can suffer.Learning to comprehend what you read can help you prevent wasting time as well as make you more productive(富有成效的) on the job or at school.
The things you already know are important for understanding things you're going to learn.Before you begin reading something on a new topic，think about what you already know about it and how what you are reading might build upon that.
Since kindergarten，we've all been told to keep a dictionary nearby when reading，but few of us follow this advice.If you are not absolutely certain of the meaning of a word，look it up.You'll not only make reading easier；you'll also improve your vocabulary.
If you are reading especially challenging material，try taking notes.If you write while you are reading，reading will become boring and your comprehension will go downhill.Instead，make an outline at the end of each paragraph or sentence.
Someone thinks that speed reading is very popular，and certainly has its place.However，from my point of view，it's a terrible idea if you want to learn.Besides，speed reading will cost you more time because you will have to go back and review if you understand what you have read quickly.Focus on quality reading rather than quick reading，and take frequent breaks if you begin to get distracted(注意力分散的)．
When reading something boring，it's easy to just read the words without even understanding what they mean.At such times，just find a way to relate to the material.Write down questions，and look up concepts online to get alternative perspectives.Your comprehension will improve and you'll be less likely to need to reread.
43．The passage is intended to teach students how to ________.
A．form good study habits
B．take notes when reading books

A．refuse to use a dictionary

46. What should we do if we come across some boring materials?
A．Ignore new words.
B．Make every effort to understand it.
C．Read it without understanding.
D．Ask for help from others.

(2013·福建高考)Pride and Prejudice for the Modern Woman Let us imagine how Pride and Prejudice，Jane Austen's most famous work，might be updated,200 years on.
Austen's popularity is rooted in her intelligence.But today she would certainly have had a very different life，as would her characters.Here's my own suggestion...
It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to men，however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism.
“My dear husband，”said his hopeful wife one day，“have you heard that the local store，standing empty for so long，is taken over by a bright young businesswoman？”
Her dull and indifferent(漠不关心的) husband replied that he had not.
“But it is，it is，” she replied excitedly.
Mr Dull-Husband made no reply.
“Don't you want to know her plans？” she cried with some impatience.
“Well，clearly you think it matters to your silly little head...so I'd better listen.”
“Well，my dear，the rumour(传言) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England，though how_a_woman_can_know_ anything_about_that_is_beyond_me.She will move in herself next month.”
“What is her name？”
“Bingley.”
“Is she married or single？”
“What a question! And none of your business.But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys.”
“How so? How can it possibly affect them？”
“My dear love: those lazy boys need something to wake them up.There are bound to be jobs going.”
“Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place.”
“Nonsense，my love，how little you've noticed the world has changed.She's got a first-rate degree and some sort of business qualification，I'm told.She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call.”
“Me? No.Perhaps you can take an interest.You still have your looks，after all.She may even offer you a job.”
“Oh，that's not likely.These new chances belong to the younger generation.But now you mention it，I think I'll go along all the same.”
And Mrs Bennet went along.That was 10 years ago.She is now managing director of a FTSE-listed company.
...It would remain the case，of course，that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board，that her salary would be lower than her male colleagues，her bonus of a more “female” dimension and her lifespan (年限) among the city's business leaders shorter than theirs.Still，she'd no doubt have enjoyed Davos－and might even have hobnobbed(攀谈) with influential figures.
47．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Austen was born 200 years ago.
B．Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice.
C．Austen's success lies in her wisdom.
D．Austen's updated work gains popularity.
48．The underlined part in the passage suggests that Mrs Bennet ________.
A．had mixed feelings of admiration and surprise about Bingley
B．felt kind of worried and doubtful about Bingley
C．was extremely anxious to meet Bingley
D．had a great curiosity about Bingley
49．In the eyes of Mrs Bennet，Bingley surely needed one of their boys to ________.
A．get married to B．work for her
C．help her move in D．take over her store
50．What does the writer intend to tell us?
A．Women with brains can also be as successful as men.
B．Women have to pay a high price for success.
C．A judgment must be made free from prejudice.
D．Sex discrimination still exists nowadays.

语篇解读：本文主要介绍了20世纪美国最伟大的剧作家之一Arthur Miller及其最著名的剧作Death of a Salesman。
35．B 事实细节题。由第一段第二句Miller's father had moved to the USA from Austria-Hungary，drawn like so many others by the“Great American Dream”．可知，他父亲搬家的原因是drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”，从而找到答案。
36．A 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Death of a Salesman，is a powerful attack on the American system，with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth.”以及剧中主人公以自杀方式结束生命的悲惨遭遇，可推断出这部剧作揭露了美国商业界的残酷。
37．A 推理判断题。由第三段内容可知，这是一部首次获得三项大奖的剧作，所以选项A正确。B不全面；C、D没有提及。
38．D 主旨大意题。总览全文叙述的是Arthur Miller和他最著名的剧作Death of a Salesman，A、B、C三个选项都不能概括这一主旨。
语篇解读：莎士比亚长于借鉴先人之长，善于从身边汲取艺术的养分，这是他的作品流传至今的原因所在。他的作品对现代文学尤其是对英语语言有着深远的影响。
39．A 推理判断题。文章第二段一开始就提到，早些时候人们很有可能学过几部罗马和希腊的戏剧，而且作家创作这些戏剧的现代版也是很常见的事，随后列举了莎士比亚在他的戏剧中借鉴先人作品或历史的例子，由此可知A项正确。
40．B 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句可知，莎士比亚的The Comedy of Errors借用了古罗马作家普洛提斯作品中的一些细节。
41．A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第二句“But the first and greatest example would be his great influence on the English language.”可知，莎士比亚最大的影响在于他对英语语言的影响。

45．D 作者态度题。由第五段可知，作者指出这种快速阅读比较费时而且容易分散注意力，所以作者对它的态度是否定的。故答案为D。
46．B 细节理解题。从最后一段At such times，just find a way to relate to the material可知选B。
语篇解读：本文是关于英国著名女性小说家简·奥斯汀的《傲慢与偏见》的一篇文章。号召读者通过对本文的研读，对当今社会上仍然存在的性别歧视观念加以纠正，从而鼓舞当代女性勇于和男性竞争以获得平等地位。
47．C 细节理解题。A项错误，因为文章中并没有提及奥斯汀的出生日期；B项“奥斯汀重写了《傲慢与偏见》”，很明显文章也没有提及；D项“奥斯汀的更新的著作受到人们的欢迎”，这种观点与文章不符。由第一段第一句“Austen's popularity is rooted in her intelligence.”可知奥斯汀的成功在于她的智慧(wisdom)，故C项正确。
48．A 推理判断题。由上文中的excitedly和cried不难推断贝内特夫人的感情既有羡慕又有吃惊的成分，所以A项符合文意；B项“对Bingley感到担忧和怀疑”，与原文不符，因为上文的话题是贝内特夫人自己提出的，因而不会产生怀疑心理，如果说她丈夫怀疑还可以接受；C项“她急切想见到Bingley”，与下文中的丈夫让她给Bingley打电话，她却拒绝相矛盾，故排除C项；D项“对Bingley很好奇”，不全面，实际上更多的是羡慕和吃惊。
49．B 细节理解题。根据文章中提到的“那些懒惰的男孩子需要一些东西唤醒自己”以及“There are bound to be jobs going.”可知Bingley需要贝内特夫人的一个孩子为她工作，所以B项正确。根据上文中贝内特夫人的丈夫问及Bingley的婚姻状况时，她告诉丈夫“不关你的事”可知A项错误；由“She will move in herself next month.”可知C项错误；D项“接管她的店铺”与原文矛盾，所以应排除。
50．D 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可以看出，作者写这篇文章的目的是号召人们消除性别歧视的观念，故D项正确。A项“智慧的女人同样可以像男人一样成功”，而文章只是对《傲慢与偏见》的内容进行引述，这不是全文要表达的主旨；B项“女人要成功必须付出巨大的代价”，文章没有提及；C项“对事物进行判断不应有偏见”，这只是文章主旨大意的一部分，太笼统。
51．(in) classifying books 52.worth remarking

【参考范文】
Every one of us is part of society and life is a long journey，during which we interact and affect each other.Trust and encouragement play an important part in our daily life，and even can make miracles.For example，teachers' praise may make a student who is bad at his lessons gain confidence and thus make rapid progress.On the contrary，if he is always discouraged and criticized by his teachers，he will lose heart and fall far behind others，and even get fed up with study.Remember，your attitude can influence others.
On the other hand，we should learn to be our own master.If we are always living in others' comments and even trying our best to change ourselves in order to adapt to others，we won't succeed，which only shows our ignorance and immature.

4．B 句意：他不很自信，在作出决定前总是犹豫不决。hesitate意为“犹豫不决”，符合句意。reflect“反射；反映”。
5．B 句意：他的语调强调了他的意思以便没有人会误解他的意思。mistake“误解，误会”，符合句意。

17．B or表示“或者”；wood or stone“木头或石头”。

Most people have heard of Shakespeare and probably know something of the plays that he wrote.However，not everybody knows much about the life of this remarkable man，except perhaps that he was born in the market town of Stratford?upon?Avon and that he married a woman called Anne Hathaway.We know nothing of his school life.We do not know，for example，how long it lasted，but we presume that he attended the local grammar school，where the principal subject taught was Latin.
Nothing certain is known for what he did between the time he left school and his departure for London.According to a local legend，he was beaten and even put in prison for stealing rabbits and deer from the estate of a neighboring landowner，Sir Thomas Lucy.It is said that because of this he was forced to run away from his native place.A different legend says that he was apprenticed to a Stratford butcher，but did not like the life and for this reason decided to leave Stratford.
Whatever caused him to leave the town of his birth，the world can be grateful that he did so.What is certain is that he set his foot on the road to fame when he arrived in London.It is said that at first he had no money or friends there，but that he earned a little by taking care of the horses of the gentlemen who attended the plays at the theatre.In time，as he became a familiar figure to the actors in the theatre，they stopped and spoke to him.They found his conversation so brilliant that finally he was invited to join their company.

Whether it's a carol(圣诞颂歌) service or an evening of karaoke in the pub，many people will enjoy a good old singsong this Christmas.Singing aloud will not just lift the spirits－it's good for your physical health as well.Filling the lungs with air，increasing the heart rate and getting blood pumping round the body faster can all help our physical health.
For the past few years Heart Research UK has been running a Christmas campaign aimed at getting people singing，simply for the benefit it can bring.The organizer of the campaign says singing is a safe，simple and social activity that everyone can enjoy.“Singing is linked to long life，stress reduction，and general health protection.It also brings a great amount of happiness.It is impossible to sing well with a long face because it affects your pitch(音高)．”
Professor Graham Welch，who leads the International Music Education Research Centre at the University of London，has spent more than 30 years studying the effects of singing.He says that singing is a form of exercise.It means we're also having a strong aerobic activity(有氧运动) when we're singing，which results in increasing the feeling of pleasure while decreasing that of stress.
“And communal singing－like in a singing group，a church service or even a singsong in the pub－helps improve our sense of self-respect.It increases our sense of satisfaction with ourselves，a greater sense of feeling included.”
Helen Astrid，a singing teacher，also sees the great effects that singing brings.“It lifts us up on a spiritual level，it helps out self-respect，and it's great for all ages from small kids to grannies－you can have a good sing and let_your_hair_down.”
But she warns people not to have too many beers or glasses of wine，though a glass may help them gather courage before taking to the stage during the holidays.

A．encourage people to sing for God at Christmas

B．protect yourself
C．dress casually
D．cover your nervousness
7．What can we infer from the passage?
A．Singing at Christmas is good for health.
B．In a low mood one is not able to sing well.
C．Experts have disagreement on singing.
D．Singing is the same as other aerobic activities.
8．Which is the BEST title of the passage?
A．Karaoke－Best Place for Singing!
B．Christmas－Best Time for Singing!
C．Singing－Healthy but Difficult!
D．For Health－Let's Sing!
