【题目】 I wasn't interested in becoming a model at first. I worked as a receptionist in a beauty shop during high school. It was in South Dakota. A woman who had worked for Vogue—a famous fashion magazine said to me, “Why don't you go to New York and be a model?”
So I went to New York at eighteen. I went to the first model agency, they thought that I was too long-waisted. It was too bad since I came all the way from South Dakota. I did an information check on the internet and found that Hunting Hartford had just bought the agency. I looked up in the telephone book and dialed. Then I went there. About half an hour later, the man who had just taken over the agency—he had been a male model before—came in. I was just staring at this unfamiliar man when he said, “You! Come into my office!”
How do you feel as a fashion model? Quite OK, I should say. But you stop thinking when you are working. It takes a lot of nervous energy as well because the camera goes one, two, three very fast and you have to move very fast. I like my job because it gives me freedom. I can have half a day off to do things I like. I can't do that if I do a normal job. I never like becoming a secretary. They have to sit in the office for eight hours a day, facing the same people.
Most models, after one or two years, can't be still very interested in it. But I like being a model. Maybe I was a born one, as many people say.
【1】Who inspired the author's desire to become a model?
A. A woman customer in the beauty shop.
B. Hunting Hartford.
C. The author herself.
D. The author's father.
【2】Why didn't the author return to South Dakota when she was first refused?
A. Because she had a strong desire to become a model.
B. Because she liked to be a receptionist at a beauty shop.
C. Because Hunting Hartford asked her not to go back.
D.Because South Dakota is far away from New York.
【3】Why did the author like being a model?
A. Because she liked the woman customer.
B. Because she liked the freedom.
C. Because she liked to have a regular work schedule.
D. Because she liked Hunting Hartford.
【4】What can we learn from the passage?
A. Perseverance leads to your success.
B. Finding a job you like to do is important.
C. Both A and B.
D. Becoming a model is quite easy.

【题目】So much to do, so little time. So much information, so little time to read it. In this age there is more information than ever before. There is not enough time to read everything we want to read. However, you can consume more information in shorter time through speed-reading.
The first thing about speed-reading is looking at the word and recognizing it. Don’t say the word in your mind, just look at it and recognize its importance. Later you will recognize clumps of four words or more to increase your speed. This is the first and most important step in speed-reading.
The next step is technique. As with any other skill, speed-reading requires technique. You should first be sitting up straight with your book flat on a horizontal (水平的) surface such as a table or a desk. Next, you should be able to see the entire page. This is necessary if you want to recognize clumps of words. Lastly, you should be focused. It is hard to read with a lot of noise. Find a quiet place to read. This will help your understanding of the text.
You need something to guide your eyes while reading. You should use your finger. Move your finger smoothly across the page. Keep your eyes focused on the words as you recognize them while using your finger as a guide. This will increase your speed.
The third step is practice. Practice makes perfect. Read using different techniques, but make sure you understand what you are reading.
【1】From the first paragraph, we know that _______.
A. there is more limited information than ever before
B. conditions ask people to use less time to know more information
C. people can read what they like
D. the less you read, the more time you will spend
【2】Which of the following shows the RIGHT time order for speed-reading according to the passage?
a. Ask for more technique.
b. Look at many words and recognize them.
c. Practise more.
A. c, a, b B. c, b, a C. b, a, c D. a, c, b
【3】The underlined part “you should be focused” in the third paragraph means that .
A. a person should devote all his attention to reading
B. your feelings will be hurt while reading
C. a person should forget his difficulties while reading
D. you should pay attention to your faults while reading
【4】To speed up your reading, you could .
A. use something to guide your eyes
B. say every word out loud
C. know it is necessary to read quickly
D. underline some important words while reading

【题目】Driving to a friend’s house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s rooftop. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it is that most city people --- myself included --- usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.
My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.
I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply.
Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. We have television, cell phones, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers.
Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought, “Before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. And perhaps write, but not in anger. I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touched the moon.”
【1】The best title for the passage would be _________.
A. Break away from Modern life
B. Touched by the Moon
C. A Bottomless well of Silence
D. The Pleasures of Modern Life
【2】The writer felt sorry for himself because __________.
A. there was too much pollution.
B. there were too many accidents on the road.
C. he failed to see the fullest moon.
D. he didn’t adapt to modern inventions
【3】Modern things are mentioned mainly to ___________.
A. show that the writer likes city life very much.
B. explain that people have less chances to enjoy nature.
C. tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life.
D. show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them.
【4】The author wrote the passage to __________.
A. show the love for the moonlight.
B. want to communicate longing for modern life.
C. advise modern people to learn to live.
D. express the feeling of returning to nature.

From Monday to Friday, most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and on weekends they are free to relax and enjoy【1】(they). Some watch TV【2】go to the cinema. Others take part in sports. There are many different ways【3】(spend) their spare time.
Almost everyone has some kind of hobbies. It may be anything from collecting stamps to【4】(make) model airplanes. Some hobbies are expensive,【5】others don’t cost anything at all. Some【6】(collect)
are worth a lot of money. Others are valuable only to the owners.
I know【7】man who has a coin collection worth $250. He was very happy about his purchase and【8】(think) the price was reasonable. On the other hand, my youngest brother collects matchboxes. He has almost 600 of them but I doubt if they are worth any money. However, to my brother they are【9】(extreme) valuable. Nothing makes him【10】(happy) than to find a new matchbox for his collection.
This is what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our spare time simply for fun. The value in dollars is not important. We do it for the pleasure it gives.
