    Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
    Who buy the presents? How much should we spend? Questions about money like these ___50___ during the holidays, and they can turn this wonderful season into the most ___51___ time of the year.
    The ___52___ cause of holiday stress is money issues, according to a recent poll by the American Psychological Association (APA). The survey found that 61 percent of Americans ___53___ lack of money as the top cause of family tensions, holiday blues and depression.
    “People believe that they can go out and buy gifts because it’s the holidays, ___54___they can’t afford to do so,” says Dorothy Cantor, a noted psychologist and former APA president. “Not only is it stressful to feel that you have to buy everyone an expensive gift, but you will also be stressed for the rest of the year trying to pay your ___55___. You can show love and caring by giving something that you know is meaningful and ___56___ that doesn’t have to cost a lot.”
    While managing money issues during the holiday season can be a ___57___, financial experts agree that you can ___58___ pressure by planning ahead, exhibiting patience and managing expectations to make the holiday season enjoyable and worry-free.
    For starters, make an agreement with family members to discuss holiday spending and finances before you make any ___59___. The goal here is to learn one another’s thoughts and feelings about priorities and wishes. Be realistic, decide together on a budget and only use cash, rather than using credit cards. Avoid getting ___60___ unreasonable expectations. It makes no ___61___ to buy gifts you can not afford and put additional financial and emotional stress on yourself and your family that will cause problems long after the holidays are over.
    Other ways to ___62___ the burden of money-related holiday blues include an understanding that everyone faces money problems at one time or another. It’s important to keep your ___63___ situation in perspective, to learn from experience and then to proceed with your life.
    And lastly, make focusing on financial solutions a part of your New Year’s resolution. It’s the perfect time to take a __64___ approach by doing some soul-searching, forgiving yourself, letting go of the past and dealing with your financial problems in a businesslike manner each day.

    It must have been around nine o’clock when I drove back home from work because it was already dark． As I came near to the gates I turned off the head lights of the car so as to prevent the beam from swinging (摆动) through the window and waking Jack, who shared the house with me． But I needn’t have done so． I noticed that his light was still on, so he was awake anyway—unless he had fallen asleep while reading． I put the car away and went up the steps．

    “What’s up, Jack﹖” I asked．
    “For God’s sake, don’t make a noise,” he said．
    The way he spoke reminded me of someone in pain who is afraid to talk in case he does himself serious injury．
    “Take your shoes off, Neville,” Jack said．
    I thought that he must be ill and that I had better give way to him to keep him happy． “There is a snake here,” he explained． “It’s asleep between the sheets． I was lying on my back reading when I saw it．I knew that moving was out of the question． I could not have moved even I’d wanted to．” I realized that he was serious． “I was depending on you to call a doctor as soon as you came home,” Jack went on． “It has not bitten me yet but I dare not do anything to upset it． It might wake up． I’m sick of this,” he said．“I took it for granted that you would have come home an hour ago．”
    There was no time to argue or apologize for being late．I looked at him as encouraging as I could and went to telephone the doctor．

    The use of the word imitation（模仿） reminds me that we ought to make some more comments on the risk of people imitating what they see on the screen in the way of crime（犯罪） or violence. First there was always a risk of children acting out scenes which could be dangerous. For example, I remember a woman who was head of a middle school telling me that she had happened to look out of her window when the children were on the playground and had seen them putting a small boy on a chair with a rope round his neck and the rope over the branch of a tree; fortunately she was in time to get there before the child was hanged. I remember a film in particular in which the hero who was imprisoned had escaped by electrocuting（通电触死） his guard, the technique of doing this being shown in detail. This was the kind of scene which we could cut for these reasons.
    In films for young people and adults we always tried to keep off the screen the details of criminal techniques, such as how to open a locked door with a piece of hard plastic or how to open a safe; if we were consulted（请教） before production, I used to advise that the details should not be shown. When I gave talks in prisons about film checking I had full support for this, since fathers who were in prison for criminal offences did not want their children to get on crime.
    Every time I gave a talk in a prison someone used to mention the French film Rififi. made by Jules Dassin in 1954. This remarkable film showed in great detail a robbery of a jeweler’s shop, the robbery lasting about half an hour and being backed by only natural sound...one of the most brilliant film sequences（连续镜头） of all time. I remember our discussion at the time. We thought that the robbery was finished only with the use of advanced and obviously expensive equipment and that only the most experienced and skilled criminals could possibly imitate it; we believed therefore that it was relatively safe. When talking in prisons some years later I learned that there had been several robberies in which the techniques had been copied, so perhaps we were wrong.
    31. The writer thinks that____________.
    A. the details of the criminal technique should be kept
    B. the details of the crime should not be shown on the screen
    C. children should not imitate what they see on the screen
    D. it is dangerous to imitate what they see on the screen
    32. What is the writer’s attitude（态度） towards the film in which the hero had escaped by electrocuting the guard?
    A. The writer likes it very much.
    B. The writer is strongly against it.
    C. The writer thinks the film has some value.
    D. The writer does not show his/her attitude.
    33. Parents in prison agreed to film checking because______.
    A. they did not want their children to follow them
    B. the crime on screen could be imitated without difficulty
    C. they had given a talk on it
    D. they had made mistakes
    34 .All the following statements about“Rififi”are true EXCEPT______.
    A. that the robbery shown needs experience and skills
    B. that some very good tools were used in the robbery
    C. that the film showed the technique in detail
    D. that the technique of the robbery was not imitated
    35. It can be inferred from the passage that______.
    A. it is hard for children to tell the differences between real life and the imaginary
    B. only people in prison support film checking
    C. only children imitate what they have seen on the screen
    D. the writer used to advise the details of crime should be shown

    　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Motherhood is a career to respect
    　　A WOMAN renewing her driver’s license at the CountyClerk’s office was asked to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself.
    　　“What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a...”
    　　“Of course I have a job,” said Emily. “I’m a mother.”
    　　“We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation... ‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.
    　　One day I found myself in the same situation. The Clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title. “What is your occupation?” she asked.
    　　The words simply popped out. “I’m a Research Associate (研究员) in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”
    　　The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.
    　　I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my pronouncement (声明) was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.
    　　“Might I ask,” said the clerk with interest, “just what you do in your field?”
    　　Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t), in the laboratory and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most careers and the rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”
    　　There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.
    　　As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (激励) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants – ages 13, 7, and 3.
    　　Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6-month-old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern.
    　　I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”
    　　Motherhood... What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.
    小题1: How did the female clerk feel at first when the writer told her occupation?
    A．Cold-hearted.B．Open-minded.
    C．Puzzled.D．Interested.
    小题2: How many children does the writer have?
    A．3B．4C．7D．13
    小题3:Why did the woman clerk show more respect to the writer?
    A．Because she thought the writer did admirable work.
    B．Because the writer cared little about rewards.
    C．Because the writer did something that she had little knowledge of.
    D．Because she admired the writer's research work.
    小题4: What is the point of the article?
    A．To show that how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it.
    B．To show that the writer had a grander job than Emily.
    C．To argue that motherhood is a worthy career.
    D．To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.

    We keep reading that TV is bad for you. If this is true, how come the current generation of TV-addicted kids is much smarter than we are? In my home, the only people who can work the remote control are the children.
    Perhaps TV does educate you. For example, you learn a useful medical fact: A person who has been shot always has time to speak an incomplete sentence before he dies. “The killer was…” (dies)
    But I guess the biggest things we learn from TV can be regarded as “Life Skills”. Bad things only happen on dark and stormy nights. Emotional breakdowns cause people to wander in the heavy rain without umbrellas. And contrary to what scientists say, the crack(霹雳) of lightning and the accompanying flash happen at exactly the same time, wherever you are.
    I’ve even acquired useful geographical facts from science-fiction shows: Aliens speak English no matter which planet they come from.
    Making use of what we learn from TV can improve our security. Consider these truths. If you are ever attacked by 20 bad guys, don’t worry about being outnumbered. The criminals will hang back and take turns to approach you in ones and twos just so you can conveniently defeat them all. Bad guys who are completely covered in black clothes always remove their black masks to reveal that they are in fact, aha, women.
    TV also teaches us important information about escaping from danger. Watch and learn. (1) If anyone is running after you down a passage, you will find that boxes have been conveniently placed near all the walls you need to jump over. (2) If you are tall and handsome, you can run from any number of armed criminals, and every shot will miss you.
    Be warned, however. If your name card says “henchman” (帮凶) and you are part of a group of plain-looking people trying to catch a handsome individual, a single shot will kill you. But don’t be anxious: TV also delivers useful information for bad guys. All cars are inflammable (易燃的) and have amazing shock absorbers that enable them to fly into the air and land without damage — except police cars.
    TV even teaches us about TV. Whenever anyone turns on a TV, it shows a news flash about someone they know. They then turn the box off immediately after that news item.
    小题1:By saying “A person who has been shot always has time to speak an incomplete sentence
    before he dies” (Paragraph 2), the writer shows his________.
    A．humorB．sympathy
    C．deep concernD．medical knowledge
    小题2:We can infer from Paragraph 3 that in the real world_______.
    A．bad things cause people to break down in the rain
    B．bad things never happen on dark and stormy nights
    C．people with emotional problems like to walk in the rain without umbrellas
    D．the crack of lightning and the accompanying flash don’t happen at the same time
    小题3:On TV what usually happens when a person turns it on?
    A．The news shown is always about someone the person knows.
    B．The person always turns off the TV when it’s time for news.
    C．The program shown is always about the importance of TV.
    D．TV always shows news about famous people.
    小题4:What’s the main idea of this passage?
    A．Life skills can be learned from TV.
    B．TV plays an important role in society.
    C．Watching TV makes people more creative.
    D．What happens in TV is very different from reality.

    The holiday is upon us. Finally, after months of study, you have some time to yourself. So, why not read a book? Well, some people will say, "Why bother with books? We have the Internet and other media that offer a lot of more colorful entertainment. Books are history!" But don't be fooled. I'm sure there's still a lot to be said for reading.
    One clear reason is that a well-chosen book is a wonderful source of vocabulary, so long as you have a good dictionary, of course. Believe me, it's far easier to get new English words and phrases from a book or an article than it is from the TV or the Internet.
    But another more important point is that books give you something that modern media simply can not. The average webpage is picture-heavy and the text is often designed to make it as easy to read as possible. While "easy" may be attractive, unfortunately it's of little use for any long-term development of reading skills and the general language level. Because of that, there's still no substitute (替代品) of a book.
    But perhaps the best single reason is that simply choosing what you read and doing it independently means that it's something you do by and for yourself. You can choose what you want to read. It's hard work, but somewhere down the line, you'll find that what once seemed like a duty is now a pleasure.
    小题1:How many reasons for reading a book does the author mention in the passage?
    A．ThreeB．TwoC．OneD．Four
    小题2: According to the passage, we basically need a ________ in reading.
    A．televisionB．pencilC．notebookD．dictionary
    小题3:In the author's opinion, reading on the Internet may_________.
    A．develop long-term reading skillsB．improve the general language ability
    C．not take the place of reading booksD．be an effective way of reading
    小题4: The passage is written mainly to _________.
    A．share the pleasure of reading booksB．advise readers to read books
    C．stress the importance of reading onlineD．help readers to choose good books

    Greeks play a special game at Easter and it’s good fun! The rules of the game are as follows: 1．Everyone picks out a hard-boiled Waster Egg．2．Each player finds a partner．One person will be a “holder”, and the other will be a “tapper”．Holders should hold the egg with either the pointy end or the round end facing up．Tappers should hold the egg with that same end facing down．Tapping must be done pointy-end-to-pointy-end or round-end-to-round-end．3．With one good tap, the tapper tries to crack the holder’s egg．One player will end up with a cracked egg．4．Each player finds another partner and repeats steps 2 and 3．（After one end of the egg is cracked, players may continue to play using the uncracked end）．5．A player loses when both ends of his egg have been cracked．The winner is the person who still has an uncracked egg．6．Enjoy eating the eggs!
