【题目】You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?
Jane Addams (l 860-1935)
Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
Rachel Carson (l 907-1964)
If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.
Sandra Day O’Connor (1930-present)
When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator (参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.
Rosa Parks (1913-2005)
On December 1,1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in,” said Parks.
【1】What is Jane Addams noted for in history?
A. Her social work.
B. Her teaching skills.
C. Her efforts to win a prize.
D. Her community background.
【2】What was the reason for O’Connor’s being rejected by the law firm?
A. Her lack of proper training in law.
B. Her little work experience in court.
C. The discrimination against women.
D. The poor financial conditions.
【3】Who made a great contribution to the civil-rights movement in the U.S.?
A. Jane Addams. B. Rachel Carson.
C. Sandra Day O’Connor. D. Rosa Park.

【题目】阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
【1】 we know, there are three medalists in Olympic races: the gold, the silver, and the bronze (铜牌).
Imagine what it’s like to be the silver medalist. If you 【2】 (be) just one second faster, you could have won the gold! So close! You would keep comparing yourself to be the gold winner, full 【3】 envy.
Now imagine what it’s like to be the bronze medalist. One second 【4】 (slow), and you wouldn’t have won anything! Whoo-hoo! You would be thrilled that you were 【5】 (official) an Olympic medalist, and got to stand on the winner’s podium at all.
You can 【6】 compare up or compare down and your 【7】 (happy) depends on where you’re focusing. This is easy to understand, but hard to remember in everyday life. If you catch yourself 【8】 (bum) with envy of anger, think like the bronze medalist, not the silver. Change your focus.
For example, if you buy something that is “the best”, you may feel like a gold winner, but when the new “best” 【9】 (come) out next year, you’ll feel like the siver. Instead, if you look at what you buy as something “surprisingly good”, it will keep you in the bronze mindset. Since you’re not comparing it to best, you’ll feel no need 【10】 (keep) up with the newest thing.

【题目】阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
At the start of every new year, it is very typical 【1】 (make) new year’s resolutions. However, do they really work?
Personally, I don’t think so. Firstly, it’s always great to start the new year with a good 【2】 (intend) and a positive attitude, as it can bring more hope and happiness. However, when life 【3】 (return) to normal, the enthusiasm of writing a diary, for example, can wear off.
We often choose the goals 【4】 are unrealistic as resolutions under the false belief that we can just be a 【5】 (complete) different person in the new year. In fact, changes happen in small steps over time, so why not take a step back and think of something we can benefit 【6】?
For instance, let’s simply set some achievable goals: smile more at 【7】 (strange), laugh at least 【8】 (two) a day or write a positive thing that makes you happy, no matter 【9】 simple they are. These small gestures are thought 【10】 (be) effective to make you better on the inside and outside. So, let’s take the pressure away and make a great effort to be a better me!
