【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的ABCD四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

When people think of Hollywood, they think of the city where dreams come trueThis did not apply to FScott Fitzgerald, a screenwriter who had his share of ups and downs in this landFitzgerald was not a successful Hollywood writer because he was not good at the career path he choseHe was an amazing novelist, but his efforts of turning them into screenplays ended in disappointment and confusionIt was because of a lack of potential for screenwriting as well as his addiction and desire to be famous

Growing up as a boy, Fitzgerald went to movies a lotHe wanted to write stories that would eventually turn into moviesThe problem was: just because Fitzgerald wanted to do something didn’t necessarily mean that he was good at itHe made his attempts, but most of these efforts ended in disappointment because he thought about the change from script(剧本)to screen too muchHis plot was too detailed and complicated; his tone was too serious or his dialogue too sentimental(感伤的).

Fitzgerald had another chance at success when many opportunities came his way, including revisions of Emlyn William’s play The Light of Heart and production of one of his own scripts, CosmopolitanHowever, these were all put aside and he was right back where he started, left behind and called a “ruined man”Fitzgerald simply wanted too much in his lifeHe wanted “to be both a great novelist and a Hollywood success, to write songs like Cole Porter and poetry like John Keats”His addiction to fame held him back and led to his failure as a Hollywood writer

【题目】For centuries, the body’s blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killer. For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone’s life as nothing.

Cold can affect other parts of the body. The expression “get cold feet” has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agree to be president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.

The expression “give someone the cold shoulder” probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you. Or, to someone who has lied about you to others.

A cold fish is not a fish.It is a person.But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone.Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted. Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy.Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their lovers.

Out in the cold means not getting something that everybody else got.A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise---he was left out in the cold.And it is not a pleasant place to be.

【1】When you refuse to speak to a man and treat him in a distant way, you may express by “____”.

A.I think he is a cold fish

B.I give him the cold shoulder

C.I think he is a cold-blooded man

D.I’m likely to get cold feet

【2】If Sue shows absolutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa, you will say _________.

A. she is a cold fish B.she is out in the cold

C.she is a cold-blooded killer D.she gets cold feet

【3】We can use the expression “__________” to describe a man who abandons or hurts his lover without mercy.

A. cold feet B.cold shoulder

C.cold-hearted D.cold-blooded

【4】The topic of this passage is about _________.

A.some expressions about friendship

B.how cold weather comes into being

C.some expressions connected with cold
