    _______ professional pianist practises for several hours a day, but _______ has his own way of playing the Beethoven music.?

    A. Each；every　B. Every；each?

    C. All；every D. Either；every?

    B?


    解析:

    虽然every与each在汉语中的词义是“每一个”，但这两个词的词性不同，every是形容词，而each既是形容词，也是代词。every与all含义很接近，如:He has read every book/all books on the subject.(有关这个科目的书籍他全都读过了。)英文中常用every进行概括，强调事物或人的总体性。而each则强调个体概念，当我们说each pianist时，我们想到的是每个不同的人做着不同的事。句意为“每个专业的钢琴家每天都练习几个小时，但他们每个人都有自己独特的演奏贝多芬音乐的方式”。

    Dear Ralf,

    I have received your letter from school and am glad to know that you are becoming responsible(有责任的)enough to decide on your career.

    You are now in the final year of college and are about to start more independent life in society. You know that a generation divides us, and the conditions of social life were different in my days. However, all I can say as advice is that you must select a career wisely. The first consideration is your interest. You can only succeed and feel happy when you do something you enjoy. Your job must be both gainful and satisfying. Then, you must read up on the latest books on the field you are aiming at. Also, you should get familiar with the men and women in the profession of that field. When mind and heart function together, success is inevitable(必然的).

    No career is more or less important than any other career. It takes different people to operate the machine of life. I think your interest may lie in the field of making TV programs. Your great communication skills, your active participation(参与) in school plays and the prizes you have won in speech competitions all point in that direction. So a career in Mass Communication and TV film production proves suitable for you. If you succeed and make it in that field, fame and treasure will both follow.

    Think a thousand times before making any final decision regarding your career. Anyhow, I want you to be a man of success.

    I know that you are mature(成熟的) enough to think for yourself.

    With all the best wishes!

    Your loving father

    A. He has graduated from college.               B. He gets on badly with his father.

    C. He has taken part in school plays.           D. He won prizes in the field of making films.

    58. Ralf’s father thinks that ________.

    A. fame is more important than treasure

    B. every career is of the same importance

    The 47-year-old singer talks about the new album Symphony（交响乐） that came out of a “very dark time”, including her decision to give up trying to have children. “People have suggested I could adopt,” Brightman says. “But work is central to my life now. And so I am going to put it to one side. After a while not having children becomes the norm and perhaps that might sound alarming, to parents especially, but I have never known anything different. I’m not hurt by not having children. My life and career are incredibly rich.”

    Talking about growing up in a large family in Berkhamsted (father a property developer who later committed suicide), she says: “I was gifted as a child, and very musical. I seemed to be good at anything to do with the arts. At 5，I understood the music I was dancing to and had an eye for costume.” She first appeared in a West End musical at 11 and hated boarding school.

    Brightman led the saucy dance troupe（辣妹三人舞） Hot Gossip and had her first hit with I Lost My Heart to a Starship Trooper in 1978. At 18 she married a music manager called Andrew Graham Stewart. “I was probably in love but I can’t remember. Girls change such a lot between 18 and 22. It didn’t really work out.” In 1981 she was spotted by Lloyd Webber. She became his leading lady in Song and Dance, Requiem and Phantom of the Opera. They married in 1984.

    Brightman says she felt hostility(敌意) “from the beginning. I haven’t tried to understand it. I’ve done very well everywhere else, especially the US, where I now live, I just accept it for what it is. The more you are away from Britain, the more you appreciate it. But I don’t miss it, although I miss my family. Our profession can be uncomfortable but I enjoy what I do. I get on with it.”

    1. The first paragraph tells us that _____.

      A. Brightman is very popular around the world except in America

    B. Brightman’s musical style is a mixture of opera, pop and jazz

     C. the British people don’t like her for her style of music

     D. Brightman is much older than Andrew Lloyd Webber

    2. Brightman decided to give up having children because _____.

      A. she could adopt one 

    B. her life and career were unbelievably rich without children

    C. she felt it normal not to have children

    D. she was too busy

    3.The following statements are true except ______.

      A. Brightman first appeared in a West End musical at 5

      B. Brightman disliked life on the campus

      C. Brightman was very gifted when she was young

    D.The saucy dance troupe made Brightman famous

    4.The underlined word in the fourth paragraph probably means _____.

    A. located     B. admired     C. followed     D. found

    5. What does the author try to say in the last paragraph by quoting Brightman’s words?

     A. Brightman has to accept the fact that she is not liked in Britain

     B. Brightman lives in America but she loves her own country

     C. The British coldness towards Brightman led to her hatred to her homeland

    D. Brightman was at a loss why she was not welcome in Britain

    Open Letter to an Editor

    I had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently --- one who works for you. In fact, he's one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.

    Your reporter gave me a copy of his resume(简历) and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues(问题), approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I'm sure you would hate to lose him. Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He has a great assignment (分工), and said you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you've given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.

    So why is he looking for a way out?

    He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.

    The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, when it will be in, where it can play, and what the budget is.

    He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he's doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for your paper. That's what you want for him, too, isn't it?

    So your reporter has set me thinking.

    Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists --- everyone --- is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can't do it, they'll find someone who can.

    1.What does the writer think of the reporter?

    A．Optimistic.

    B．Imaginative.

    C．Ambitious.

    D．Proud.

    2.What does the reporter want most from his editors in their talks?

    A．Finding the news value of his stories.

    B．Giving him financial support.

    C．Helping him to find issues.

    D．Improving his good ideas.

    3.Who probably wrote the letter?

    A．An editor.

    B．An artist.

    C．A reporter.

    D．A reader.

    4.The letter aims to remind editors that they should ______.

    A．keep their best reporters at all costs

    B．give more freedom to their reporters

    C．be aware of their reporters' professional development

    D．appreciate their reporters' working styles and attitudes

    Many boys love reading about the legends of old pirates (海盗) and dreaming of their own wild adventures. But modern pirates are not a thing of the past. Last month Somali pirates did their boldest hijacking (劫持) to date. They seized the Saudi supertanker (超大型油轮) Sirius Star carrying crude oil worth about $100 million. They demanded $15 million to free the ship and its crew.

    The pirates have kept hitting the headlines this year: 92 attacks have been attempted, with 36 successful hijackings and 268 crew members taken hostage (人质). The Chinese fishing ship Tianyu 8, with 17 Chinese and 8 foreigners on board, has been in their hands since November 14.

    Of course piracy (海盗行为) is nothing new. Even since there has been water and ships there have been pirates. The earliest documented history of pirates dates back to the 13th century in the Mediterranean Sea. Even the famous Roman emperor Julius Caesar was once kidnapped by pirates.

    Piracy reached its peak in the mid-1700s. It was during this time in the Caribbean and off the coast of Africa that men like “Blackbeard the Pirate” made this profession attractive. But with the creation of stronger national Navies piracy became less popular around the world.

    In the mid-20th century, most pirates were petty (小规模的) thieves. They used hooks to sneak (偷偷摸摸) on board ships at anchor, and grabbed all that they could find. These pirates were more likely to flee than fight if faced by the crew.

    However, nowadays piracy has become a multi-million-dollar business at tracting many in poor countries. Pirates are treated like heroes among local fishermen.

    They use satellite phones and Global Positioning Systems (GPS). Once they spot their target, they swarm the ship with fast boats and shoot it by firing AK-47s or even rocket-propelled grenades (火箭榴弹炮). Then they hold the ship and its crews for money.

    “The world should take forceful actions together to fight piracy,” said leaders at the Asian and Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Peru.

    “However, putting in anti-piracy army can only be half of the solution. We have to protect the fair chance of Somali fishermen to get a good living and keep them from the lure of easy money,” said Peter Lehr, a lecturer in terrorism studies.

    1. When did piracy reach its peak?

    A. In the 13th century.                       B. In the mid-1700s.

    C. In the mid-20th century.               D. November 14, 2008.

    2.What does the underlined sentence probably mean?

    A. Pirates were very bold at first.      B. Pirates were very popular then.

    C. Pirates were very attractive then.    D. Pirates were not so bold at that time.

    3.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

    A. The pirates have committed 92 crimes successfully this year.

    B. Piracy became more and more popular as the national Navies became powerful.

    C. Nowadays, pirates are learning to use modern weapons to commit crimes at sea.

    D. On November 18, a Chinese ship was attacked by a suspected pirate ship.
