【题目】Some people get pleasure from picnics and tours. Others like to discuss various topics and find pleasure in it. But the reading of books provides us with such pleasure as we do not get from any other activity.

Books are written by learned people. They contain the best experiences and thoughts of their writers. Writers put in their books not only their own ideas and feelings, but also what they observe and find in society.1

If we are in a cheerful mood, our joy is increased by reading.2They provide us with the best advice and guidance in our difficulties. Indeed, books are our best friends as they help us in our hour of need.

3They entertain us in our spare moments. Good novels, books on poetry and short stories, give us great enjoyment. At times we become so absorbed in our books that we forget even our important arrangements. Loneliness is no trouble for a reader.

4They give us sound moral advice. It is through the reading of books that we learn what to love and what to hate. The reading of good books develops and improves our character. It was the English author Bacon who said that reading makes a full man. No one can question the truth of this saying.

5Some books are such that instead of doing any good, they do harm to the readers. So it is the reading of good books alone that presents us the greatest benefit.

A. Books keep us well-informed.

B. Books contain grains of wisdom.

C. When we are alone, books are our best friends.

D. Books enable us to know the best of the colorful world.

E. When we are in a depressed mood, books comfort our troubled minds.

F. But we cannot get full advantage from reading, if our choice is not good.

G. By reading books written by great thinkers, we come in contact with their minds.

一些人从野餐和旅游中获得乐趣另一些人喜欢讨论不同的话题并从中找到乐趣但是读书能让我们获得从其他活动中得不到的快乐。

1考查对上下文语境的理解。由空前的"Books are written by learned people" "Writers put in their books not only their own ideas and feelings, but also what they observe and find in society"可知,G"通过阅读伟大的思想者写的书我们能与他们的思想交流"符合语境,本段都是讲阅读有学问的人写的书带给人的益处,故选G。

2考查对上下文语境的理解。根据上文中的"If we are in a cheerful mood, our joy is increased by reading"及下文中的"They provide us with the best advice and guidance in our difficulties""help us in our hour of need"可推知接下来要说的是一种与前面相反的情况E"When we are in a depressed mood, books comfort our troubled minds"符合语境,当我们处于消沉的情绪中时,书才会帮助我们。故选E。

3考查对上下文语境的理解。本段中的"Loneliness is no trouble for a reader(对读者来说孤单不是问题)"暗示本空选C项,"当我们独自一人时书是我们最好的朋友"。故选C。

4考查对上下文语境的理解。空后讲的都是读书的好处总结起来就是读书能给人以智慧故选B。

5考查对上下文语境的理解。空前句子说的是读书的好处空后说的却是一些书对读者有害故空处要填一个能起承上启下作用的句子只有F(但是,如果我们的选择不好的话,我们就不能获得读书的充分益处。)项符合语境。故选F。

Some personal characteristics play a vital role in the development of one’s intelligence. After a 30-year follow-up study of 8, 000 males, American psychologists found out that the main cause of disparities in intelligence is not intelligence itself, but non-intelligence factors. The so-called “non-intelligence factors” include one’s feelings, will, 1, interests and habits.

Though people all know that one should have 2 objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don’t pay much attention to 3 these factors.

Some parents are greatly worried when their children fail to do well in their studies. They blame either 4 factors, malnutrition, or laziness, but they never take into consideration these non-intelligence factors. At the same time, some teachers don’t inquire into these as reasons why students do poorly. They simply give them more courses and exercises, or even 5 or laugh at them. After all, these students lose self-confidence. Some of them just feel defeated and give themselves up as hopeless. Others may go astray because they are sick of learning. An investigation of more than 1000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 46. 5 percent of them were afraid of learning because of examination and 36. 4 percent 6 persistence, initiative and conscientiousness.

It is clear that the lack of cultivation of non-intelligence factors has been a main obstacle to intelligence development in teenagers. It even causes a(n) 7 between physiological and psychological development among a few students.

If we don't start now to 8 the cultivation of non-intelligence factors, it will not only obstruct the development of the intelligence of teenagers, but also affect the 9 of a whole generation. Some experts have put forward suggestions about how to cultivate students’ non-intelligence factors.

First, parents and teachers should 10 understand teenage psychology. On this basic, they can help them to pursue the objectives of learning, exciting their interests and toughening their willpower.
