Passage 1

Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.

   很多在伦敦工作的人喜欢住在伦敦郊外，然后每天乘火车、汽车和公交车去上班或上学。这也就意味着他们不得不早出晚归。

One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.

       住在伦敦郊外的一个好处就是房子便宜。在伦敦即使是没有花园的小公寓也需要一笔不菲的租金，用同样的钱，你可以在郊区买一个带花园的小房子了。

Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.

然后，他在乡村就可以远离喧嚣和忙碌的工作生活。即使他不得不起得更早，花更多的时间乘火车或公交车，但他晚上可以睡得更好。在周末和夏季的夜晚，他可以享受乡村清新干净的空气。要是他喜欢花园，在花园里干一些想挖土、种植、浇水等许多园艺的活，那么当鲜花和蔬菜生长起来的时候，他就与其他分享大自然秘密的人们一样得到奖赏。

Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.

然而有些人对乡村并不感兴趣。对他们来说，幸福就在市区里，那里有电影院、剧院、漂亮的商店、繁忙的街道、舞厅和饭店。如果不得不住在伦敦郊外的话，这些人就觉得生活没意义了。（对于那些热爱都市生活的人来说）他们所需要的乡村生活，就是偶尔去公园散步，每个夏天去海边过上两个星期，其他跟乡村有关的东西，让那些每天晚上都急于离开伦敦的人们（住在郊外的人们）去享受吧。

6. Which of the following statements is NOT true? 下列哪个陈述是不对的？
7. People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city.
8. All the people who work in London prefer to live in the country.

所有在伦敦工作的人都喜欢住在伦敦市郊

1. Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.
2. Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city.
3. With the same money needed for _______, one can buy a little house with a garden in the country.

   用同样的钱_______,他可以在乡村买到一套有花园的小房子。

1. getting a small flat with a garden B. having a small flat with a garden
2. renting a small flat without a garden 租一套没有花园的小公寓
3. buying a small flat without a garden
4. When the garden is in blossom, the one _______ has been rewarded.

   当花园里开满鲜花的时候，那个_______的人就得到了奖赏。

1. living in the country B. having spent time working in the garden花时间在花园里工作
2. having a garden of his own D. having been digging, planting and watering
3. People who think happiness lies in the city life would feel that _______ if they had to live outside London.

那些认为幸福就在城市里人会感到_______如果他们不得不住在郊外。

1. their life was meaningless 他们的生活毫无意义     B. their life was invaluable
2. they didn’t deserve a happy life D. they were not worthy of their happy life
3. The underlined phrase get away from in the 3rd paragraph refers to _______.

 在第3段中，划线的词组get away from指_______。

1. deal with B. do away with
2. escape from 逃脱某个地方               D. prevent from

Passage 2

By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others-they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation’s consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us – an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.

就定义而言，英雄之所以与众不同是因为他们有非凡的勇气、取得了卓著的成就、常常为他人的利益而做出牺牲——他们是我们评价别人的标准。他们是大家公认的对我们国家意识的形成和我们国家的发展，还有对他们的崇拜者的一生起了重大作用的人。可是，有人说，我们的时代是很难出现真正英雄的时代，英雄主义这一概念本身我们就难以理解——它已经成为历史。有些人坚持说，由于冷战的结束和美国对外的和睦，我们的时代本质上不是一个英勇豪壮的时代。更进一步地说，总体犯罪率正在降低，经济的发展与增长已经缓解了贫困，医疗科学也在不断的进步。

Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity（明星）, who are legendary, who somehow manage to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? That’s hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death – such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana.

给文化偶像下定义就更难了，但是我们看到他们就认识了他们。他们超越了名流，成为传奇式人物，甚至在某种程度上已是神话式的人物。但究竟是哪些因素使有些人成为偶像，另一些人仅成了名流呢？这就太难说了。部分原因是他们的生平带有传奇故事的色彩。比如说，年轻貌美的戴安娜·史宾塞，19岁时嫁给了王子，放弃了婚姻与王权，却在找到真爱的那一刻死去了。漂亮的长相当然有用，另外，在媒体的炒作下某种难以描述的、特殊的个人魅力也起作用。然而悲剧性地过早离开这个世界，却是造成偶像最重要的因素——例如：小马丁·路德·金、约翰·F·肯尼迪和戴安娜王妃。

11. The passage mainly deals with _______.这段主要讲述_______
12. life and death B. heroes and heroines
13. heroes and icons 英雄与偶像                  D. icons and celebrities
14. Heroes and heroines are usually _______. 英雄通常是_______

19. Superstars are famous for being famous.

21. Heroes and heroines can only emerge in war times. 英雄只能出现在战争时代。
22. Beautiful young Diana Spencer found her genuine love _______.

1. when she was 19 B. when she became a princess
2. just before her death刚好在她死之前 D. after she gave birth to a prince
3. What is more likely to set an icon’s status? 有什么更能说明偶像的地位？
4. Good looks. B. Tragic and early death. 悲剧和英年早逝
5. Personal attraction. D. The quality of one’s story.

第四部分：完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）

It is always interesting to visit another country, especially for those who have never traveled a great deal. Foreign   21   can be very educational for anyone if he is interested enough to make preparations beforehand. Learning the language of the new country would be difficult for the traveler,   22   the benefits of such an effort would become obvious immediately   23   his arrival. It may not seem important to him when he comfortably stays at home, but knowing how to   24   a meal or book a room is necessary for the newcomer in a strange country. Without knowing the language, it is very difficult   25   the stranger to understand the people of the new country and their customs.

出国旅游总是很有趣的，尤其是对于那些很少出门旅行的人。如果旅游者兴致很高，提前做些知识准备，在国外旅行中能学到更多的东西。学习一门新的语言对于旅行者来说会很难，但是一到达新国度，这种努力学习语言的益处就会立竿见影。当他在国内的时候这并不重要，但是在一个陌生的国家里，对于一个新来的人知道如何点餐或预定房间却是必须的。如果不懂这个国家的语言，对陌生人而言，就很难理解这个国家的人文及风俗文化。

Of course, in our small world it is often possible to find someone   26   understands our own, but this is only second-best for the traveler. To be sure, he can see places and things   27   the use of a language, but places and things   28   not the heart of any country. To get the greatest benefit from a trip   29   another country, it is how important for the visitor to   30  an understanding of the language.

当然，世界很小，我们经常有可能找到理解我们自己语言的人，但是对于旅行者来说，这只是次之的选择。他能够不用语言看懂地方及很多东西，这是肯定的，但这并不是一个国家的核心内容。为了在旅游中能够从别的国家获得最大的收益，对于游客来说，懂一门新语言是多么重要啊！

22. A. when B. so C. and                          D. but
23. A. on B. before C. while                       D. at

26. A. who B. where C. which                       D. whom
27. A. without B. with C. by                           D. that
28. A. is B. are C. were                         D. had
