    "To be or not to be". Outside the Bible, these six words are the most famous in all the literature of the world. They were spoken by Hamlet when he was thinking aloud, and they are the most famous words in Shakespeare because Hamlet was speaking not only for himself but for every thinking man and woman. To be or not to be―to live or not to live, to live richly and abundantly and eagerly, or to live dully and meanly and scarcely. A philosopher once wanted to know whether he was alive or not, which is a good question for everyone to put to himself occasionally. He answered it by saying: "I think, therefore I am."
    But the best definition of existence I ever saw was one written by another philosopher who said: "To be is to be in relations." If this is true, then the more relations a living thing has, the more it is alive. To live abundantly means simply to increase the range and intensity (强度)of our relations. Unfortunately, we are so constituted that we get to love our routine. But other than our regular occupation, how much are we alive? If you are interested only in your regular occupation, you are alive only to that extent. So far as other things are concerned~poetry and prose, music, pictures, sports, unselfish friendships, politics, international affairs―you are dead.
    On the contrary, it is true that every time you acquire a new interest―even more, a new accomplishment―you increase your power of life. No one who is deeply interested in different ourselves. Let us widen and intensify our relations. While we live, let us live.

    Argue against an idea.                         B. Put forward an idea.
    C. Introduce some famous sayings.             D. Explain some famous sayings.

    A. Somebody who always expects the worst to happen.
    B.Somebody who is always interested in making new friends.
    C.Somebody who always lives in a world of passion and imagination.
    D.Somebody who likes to live a rich and abundant life.

    A. Thinking more than your own business.
    B. Caring only about your physical welfare.
    C.Reading good novels.
    D.Listening to fine music.
    66.What is the main idea of the passage?
    A. To be or not to be, that is a question.
    B. I think, therefore I am.
    C. To be is to be in relations.
    D. A man dies as often as he loses a friend.

    I studied the road up ahead and  49  in the near view mirror. There was not a car 50 a black night ahead and behind me. There were no Officers of the Law to be seen, and so I 51 the speed by another ten miles per hour. I had no great need for a speeding ticket, but I wanted to get home as quickly as I could.
    "Get into the other lane!" sounded a loud and  52  voice.

    When you first meet a disabled person, what is your first reaction? Curiosity? Sympathy? If you experience any of these emotions, you are not alone．Chances are that you don’t regularly associate with someone who is disabled．Here are four points to keep in mind if you should happen to meet a disabled person.
    Disabled people can lead active lives
    With few exceptions, a disability does not prevent someone from working, raising a family, or taking part in social activities．Many sports and recreation programs have been adapted to a person with a disability．Instead of concentrating on the disability, look at the person the same way you would any normal person.
    It’s all right to ask questions
    Many people are afraid of offending someone by asking about their disability．When meeting them for the first time, it’s natural to be curious about who he or she is, and where they’re from．Asking questions is usually acceptable, as long as you use common sense．Don’t, for example, ask a blind person how he feeds and bathes himself.
    Offer help when necessary
    You see a woman in a wheelchair having trouble entering a building．It’s usually appropriate to lend a hand if someone is having obvious difficulty, but keep in mind that not everyone will be willing to accept your help．Unless the woman in the wheelchair is in danger, you do your part.
    Remember that we all have obstacles to overcome
    No matter who we are, each of us has a weakness or challenge to face．Like you, a disabled person would much rather be accepted for who they are, rather than be pitied．Many friends have said to me, “I often forget that you are blind.” To me, that is the top compliment(赞扬).
    1．Why are you curious when you first see disabled people?
    A．They can’t live normally．           B．You seldom deal with them.
    C．You look down upon them．         D．They look quite different.
    2．What should you do if you find a disabled person can manage it?
    A．You had better lend him or her a hand.
    B．You pretend that you haven’t seen him or her.
    C．You should encourage him or her to try.
    D．You had better let him or her alone.
    3．From this passage we learn that ____.
    A．the author is blind himself
    B．a disabled person needs pitying
    C．not everyone has a weakness
    D．some people have no difficulty

    In insurance theory, moral hazard is the name given to the increased risk of immoral behavior, and thus a negative outcome (“hazard”), because the person who caused the problem doesn’t suffer the full (or any) consequences, or may actually benefit．Such a concern typically arises in the context of a contract (for example, an insurance policy)．
    The most well known examples of moral hazard come from insurance．For example:
    Fire insurance increases the motivation to commit arson (纵火), especially if someone is operating a failing business and decides that they’d rather have the cash from the insurance proceeds on the buildings than the buildings themselves．(The value of a business often is based on profitability; after arson, the owner can claim the business was profitable．) In a worst case, the building is over-insured or valuable contents are removed but claims are filed that they were destroyed in the fire．
    In finance, low level of effort by the agent (employee) is called the “moral hazard problem” according to agency theory．The more autonomy (自主) the agent enjoys and the greater the information the agent possesses, and the greater the specialized knowledge required to perform the task, the greater the chances for the occurrence of moral hazard．
    The problem of moral hazards for insurance can’t be eliminated, but can be minimized．For example:
    Getting detailed information to evaluate the value of what is being insured, rather than simply taking the word of the person buying the insurance．
    Requiring that there be a deductible(扣除额) (an initial up-front sum which the insured must pay out of his or her own pocket in case of a loss), and/or only paying out a percentage of the loss (say, 80 or 90 percent) via a coinsurance clause．
    72．What might be the headache for the insurance company after a fire?
    A．Not knowing who set the fire．
    B．The owner might over-claim the loss．
    C．Where to get the insurance fee paid．
    D．How to punish those who cheated the company．
    73．What might be the best way not to suffer over-loss in paying back insurance according to the above passage?
    A．Investigate carefully after a fire．
    B．Try to get as much detail information about the insurance．
    C．Try to catch hold of the person who committed arson．
    D．Request the buyer of insurance to pay more． 
    74．The two examples in the above passage are applied to ______．
    A．help people to have reasonable insurance
    B．present the difficulties the insurance companies have
    C．bring up a problem and a solution in insurance business
    D．invite people to buy more profitable insurance
    75．The above passage is mainly about ______．
    A．a new theory in insurance                                    B．a moral challenge in business
    C．a common business phenomenon             D．moral hazard in insurance

    You can love them or hate them, but no matter which tourist destination you visit, chances are that you’ll see someone with their head buried in a Lonely Planet guidebook.
    Lonely Planet is one of the world’s largest travel guide brands, publishing more than 500 different guides in eight languages. The popular brand also produces television shows, websites and podcasts(播客)all devoted to travel.
    Some people praise Lonely Planet books because they make traveling easy and affordable. They also save time and make sure you don’t miss the best things.
    They also provide the reviews of hostels(旅店), hotels, restaurants and ticket information about your destination.
    This can be great if you’re a nervous traveler, or if you haven’t traveled by yourself before. If you’re in a country where you don’t speak the language, sometimes there’s nothing better than getting into a taxi and opening up a guidebook. You simply point to a map that directs the taxi driver to a hostel that’s cheap and clean, with friendly staff and cold beer.
    But others criticize Lonely Planet and other travel guide publishers like them. They say guidebooks take the fun and spontaneity(自发性)out of traveling, and that part of the enjoyment of travel comes from the fact that anything can happen. They also regret that if you follow a guidebook, you’ll end up doing the same thing and having the same experience as everyone else. You might end up seeing the same group of people over and over, because everyone is reading the same book and following the same route.
    Another criticism of travel guides is that they have a large impact on local communities. For example, some locals devote their lives to behaving in ways that attract tourists. They pretend to live a traditional lifestyle, wear traditional clothes and live in traditional houses in order to attract the tourist dollar.
    63. The Lonely Planet guidebook can bring you the following advantages EXCEPT that __________.
    A. you can speak a foreign language when opening a guidebook
    B. you can easily find a nice place to stay in a strange city
    C. it provides lots of useful information about your destination
    D. it can help you save time and money when traveling
    64. People criticize the guidebook because __________.
    A. it is not as useful as most travelers expect
    B. tourist destinations will be crowded if everyone follows the same route
    C. travelers may not get the chance to have unexpected adventures
    D. local people keep modern lifestyles under its influence
    65. What do we know about the Lonely Planet guidebook from the text?
    A. It’s a world-famous brand only producing guidebooks for travelers.
    B. It’s very useful to a person who’s nervous about touring an unfamiliar place.
    C. It’s very useful to a tourist who likes to repeat others’ experiences.
    D. It is loved by all travelers because of the convenience it brings to travelers.
    66. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (①—⑦ stand for Paragraph 1
    —Paragraph 7 )
    A.   ①　　　        　B.  ①                C. ①                D. ①
    ②                 ②③  ④                ②                ②   ③
    ③④   ⑤⑥⑦         ⑤        ⑥⑦        ③④⑤  ⑥⑦       ④⑤      ⑥⑦

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    Having returned from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station. “The railway owes me $ 12,” she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office, “you sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me $12.”
    Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, Madam,” he said politely. “I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for Mary 22nd.” The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn’t have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sunburned,” he said to her. “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”
    “Yes,” she answered, shyly. “The beach was lovely. And I can swim too!” “That’s fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can’t swim a bit yet. Of course, she’s only three…”
    “I’m four,” the child said proudly. “I’ll be four and a half.”
    Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, Madam.” he said. “But you didn’t get one for your daughter, did you?” “Err. Well--,” the woman looked at the child. “I mean, she hasn’t started school yet. She’s only four.”
    “A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child’s return ticket to Jersey costs…, let me see…$ 13. So if the railway pays your hotel, you will owe(欠) $ 1.50. The law is the law, but since the fault was mine…”
    The woman stood up, took the child’s hand and left the office.
    56. The woman was angry because__________.
    A. she couldn’t use the ticket for her round trip
    B. she spent more money than she had expected

    A. the woman was angry with him               B. he had not done his work properly
    C. the Jersey timetable(时间表) was wrong        D. the little girl didn’t have a return ticket
    58. Harry started talking to the little girl_________.
    A. because he was in difficulty and didn’t know what to do
    B. because he had a little girl about the same age as this girl
    C. because he wanted to be friendly to the little girl who looked so nice
    D. when she suddenly realized that he could find a way out from the little girl
    59. When Harry said, “The law is the law, but since the fault was mine…”he meant that________.
    A. they must follow it without choice, even though the fault was his
    B. he had to be strict with the woman because of the law, although he didn’t want to
    C. the woman had to pay him $1.50 and the railway would pay her for the hotel
    D. she should pay $ 1.50, but he had made a mistake, she could go without paying
    60. The woman left the office without saying anything because________.
    A. she wanted to go home and get money for the child’s ticket

    While watching the games the other night, I came across an unbelievable sight. It was not a gold medal, or a world record broken, but a show of courage.
    The event was swimming and started with only three men on the blocks. For one reason or another, two of them false started, so they were disqualified. That left only one to complete. It would have been difficult enough, not having anyone to race against, even though the time on the clock is important.
    I watched the man dive off the bock and knew right away that something was wrong. I’m not an expert swimmer, but I can tell a good dive from a poor one, and this was not exactly medal quality. When he resurfaced, it was evident that the man was not out for gold — his arms were waving in an attempt at freestyle. The crowd started to laugh. Clearly this man was not a medal competitor.
    I listened to the crowd begin to laugh at this poor man who was clearly having a hard time. Finally he made his turn to start back. It was pitiful. He made a few desperate strokes and you could tell he was worn out.
    But in those few awful strokes, the crowd had changed.
    No longer were they laughing, but beginning to cheer. Some even began to stand and shout “Come on, you can do it!” and he did.
    A clear minute past the average swimmer, this young man finally finished his race. The crowd went wild. You would have thought that he had won the gold, and should have. Even though he recorded one of the slowest times in Olympic history, this man gave more heart than any of the other competitors.
    Just a short year ago, he had never even swum, let alone race. His country had been invited to Sydney.
    In a competition where athletes remove their silver medals feeling they have somehow been cheated out of gold, or when they act so proudly in front of their competitors, it is nice to watch an underdog.
    68.From the passage we can learn that the young man _______.
    A. made his turn to start back pitifully    
    B. was skillful in freestyle in the game
    C. swam faster than the average swimmer   
    D. was not capable enough to win the medal
    69.   The crowd changed their attitudes because _______.
    A. they felt sorry for the young man                 
    B. they wanted to show their sympathy
    C. they were moved by the young man              
    D. they meant to please the young man
    70.   According to the passage, “it is nice to watch an underdog” probably means _______.
    A. it’s amusing to watch a man with awful swimming skills
    B. it’s amazing to watch an ordinary man challenging himself
    C. it’s cheerful for athletes to act proudly before their competitors
    D. it’s brave enough for some athletes to remove the silver medals
    71.   What’s the best title for the passage?
    A. Go for it!                                      B. Try again！
    C. Compete for Gold!                         D. Break a Record!

    One of the most wonderful things about having a positive attitude is that it can touch many people, and it often exists in our everyday life.
    Recently, I stopped by a store to get a newspaper and a bottle of drink. The young woman at the check-out counter said, “That’ll be three dollars in all please.” She then glanced down at the paper I was buying and said. “I’m sick and tired of all this negative stuff-on the front pages. I want to read some good news for a change.” She then said, “In fact, I think soemone should just publish a Good News newspaper--- a paper with wonderful, inspirational stories about people over-coming difficulty and doing good things for others. I’d buy one every day!” she then thanked me for coming in and said, “Maybe we’ll get lucky tomorrow; maybe we’ll get some good news.” And she laughed. She made my day.
    The following day after my business appointments. I dropped by the same store again to pick up bottled water and a piece of newspaper, but a different young lady was behind the counter. As I checked out I said “Good afternoon” and handed her my money. She said nothing, not a word, not a smile or not a gesture. She just handed me my change and in a negative tone ordered “Next!”
    It hit me right between the eyes: Two people, the same age; one made me feel great, and the other, well, made me feel that I had inconvenienced her by showing up.
    Every morning you should ask yourself this important question. “Who do I want to be today? The Grouch(不高兴的人) or ‘The Good News Girl?’” Your answer will go a long way toward determining the joy and happiness that you will experience in your life.
    53. What does the first salesgirl dislike according to her words?
    A. Those who have bad manners.         
    B. The bad news in the newspaper.

    54. After he had bought a newspaper on the first day the author _________.
    A. was very lucky and excited that day    
    B. always remembered the girl’s word
    C. read the news in the newspaper carefully 
    D. was in a pleasant mood the whole day
    55. We learn from the passage that the salesgirl the author met the next day was ________.
    A. humorous         B. enthusiastic       C. very cool         D. positive
