【题目】I am Henry Jekyll. I was born in the 1800s. I inherited(继承) a large fortune, a healthy body and an excellent mind. I was naturally hard-working and soon I was very successful in my job. So the outside world saw a serious, hard-working, successful doctor. Behind this quiet character, however, was a wild, fun-loving, irresponsible young man. Both of them were me. They lived together in the same body.
“Was it possible,” I wondered, “to find a drug that could give each side of my character its own separate face and body?”
After much thought and careful study I believed I had found the answer. I had read many scientific books and spent many hours in my laboratory, searching for the right mixture of chemicals to make my drug. At last I got everything ready.
Late one night, I mixed everything together and prepared my drug. I watched the smoke rising from the liquid as its color changed from red to purple and at last to green. Then, bravely, I drank every bitter drop.
I felt a violent sickness in my stomach and a terrible pain in all my bones. The room seemed to turn round and round and I trembled with fear. Then the fear and pain disappeared and a strange, sweet feeling took its place. Wild thoughts danced through my mind—the wild passions of an evil and cruel stranger. But inside myself I felt younger, lighter, more carefree than ever before. “If this is pure evil,” I thought, “I like it.”
I stood there, enjoying these strange new thoughts and passions and suddenly realized that I was shorter. So I decided to go to my bedroom in my new body and take a look at myself in the mirror there. As I came into my room, I saw Edward Hyde for the first time.
At that time, the good side of my character was stronger than the evil side. Henry Jekyll had his faults, but he was mostly a good, kind man. I believe that is the reason why Edward Hyde was so much smaller than Henry Jekyll. But that was not the only difference between the two men. Henry Jekyll had a kind, open, honest face. But pure evil stared out of Edward Hyde’s eyes. I felt no dislike, however. Indeed, I welcomed him. Edward Hyde was me, young and strong and full of life.
【1】In others’ eyes, the writer was ______.
A. wild and successful B. fun-loving and responsible
C. quiet and irresponsible D. serious and hard-working
【2】The writer wanted to find a drug to ______.
A. discover the right mixture of chemicals
B. create separate bodies for both sides
C. observe the change of the chemicals
D. make himself smaller but stronger
【3】From the passage we can learn that the writer ______.
A. felt quite delighted right after taking the drug
B. preferred kind Henry to pure evil Edward
C. was very sick of the shorter Edward Hyde
D. was satisfied with both of his bodies[

【题目】阅读理解。
Walk down the drinks section at the supermarket.Look in the drink cooler in your local convenience store.A new drink is taking up more and more space on the shelves,and that drink is water.Bottled water sales in the US rose to 1.7 billion gallons in 2010 for plastic bottles alone,compared to total sales of only 700 million gallons in 1990. Whereas bottled water was once associated only with the rich and the privileged (特权阶层),it is now regularly drunk by people at all income levels despite the fact that the price of bottled water can be between 240 and 10,000 times higher per gallon than tap water.What accounts for this surprising increase in demand?
Traditionally,people have drunk bottled water for health reasons.The practice of “taking the waters” originated with the Romans,who believed that a person developed a healthy mind by building a healthy body.Across Europe,drinking or bathing in mineral water has been associated with the power to cure various diseases.Health spas at Evian in France and Pellegrino in Italy began bottling water so that their consumers could continue their treatments at home.The consumers in the 21st century are also concerned about health.However,in America,where the habit of drinking bottled water is relatively new,the concern is often more related to the purity or sterilization (消毒) of the water than to its mineral contents.Americans are often worried about the effects of the chemical pollution and other contaminants on the water supply.Many Americans view bottled water as a safe alternative to tap water.
Further reasons for drinking bottled water are its usefulness as an aid to digestion,as a complement to a good meal in a restaurant,and for taste.City tap water is often treated with chlorine (氯) to guard against harmful microorganisms.Chlorine,as well as metals from pipes and tanks used to distribute and store tap water,can leave behind an unpleasant taste.
【1】Which of the following statements is true?
A.Bottled water was once drunk both by the rich and the poor.
B.Bottled water sales have risen,for it’s cheaper than tap water.
C.Europeans believed in the power of treatment of mineral water.
D.Americans have had the habit of drinking bottled water for long.
【2】People prefer bottled water because________.
A.it does good to their health
B.it has chlorine to make it taste good
C.it contains no mineral pollution at all
D.it’s a practice originated with the Romans
【3】The underlined word “contaminants” most probably means________.
A.pollutants B.microorganisms
C.chemicals D.minerals
【4】Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?
A.How Bottled Water Originated
B.“Taking the Waters” Has Been Practiced for Long

【题目】Mrs. Strickland did not talk much, but she had a pleasant gift for keeping the conversation general; and when there was a pause she threw in just the right remark to set it going once more.
"Why do nice women marry dull men?"
"Because intelligent men won't marry nice women. "
Mrs. Strickland had the gift of sympathy.
There was another thing I liked in Mrs. Strickland. She managed her surroundings with elegance(优雅). Her flat was always neat and cheerful with flowers. The meals in the little dining room were pleasant; the table looked nice; the food was well cooked. It was impossible not to see that Mrs. Strickland was an excellent housekeeper. And you felt sure that she was an admirable mother. There were photographs in the drawing room of her son and daughter. The son—his name was Robert—was a boy of sixteen at Rugby. He had his mother’s fine eyes. He looked clean, healthy, and normal.
“I don’t know that he’s very clever,” she said one day, when I was looking at the photograph, “but I know he’s good. He has a charming character.”
The daughter was fourteen. Her hair, thick and dark like her mother’s, fell over her shoulders, and she had the same kindly expression and untroubled eyes.
“They both look like you,” I said.
“Yes, I think they are more like me than their father.”
“Why have you never let me meet him?” I asked.
“Would you like to?” she smiled and her smile was really very sweet.
“You know, he’s not at all literary,” she said. “He has no interest in literature.”
“He’s on the Stock Exchange(证券交易所), and he’s a typical broker(经纪人). I think he’d bore you to death.”
“Does he bore you?” I asked.
“You see, I happen to be his wife. I’m very fond of him.” She smiled to cover her shyness, and her eyes grew tender.
“He doesn’t pretend to be a talent. He doesn’t even make much money on the Stock Exchange. But he’s awfully good and kind.”
“I think I should like him very much.”
“I’ll ask you to dine with us quietly some time, but mind, you come at your own risk; don’t blame me if you have a very dull evening.”
【1】Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Mrs. Strickland is a very good housekeeper.
B. Her daughter looks more like her than her husband.
C. Her son, clever or not, has a pleasant character.
D. Mrs. Strickland doesn’t love her husband because of his dullness.
【2】What does the sentence “I think he’d bore you to death” imply(暗示)?
A. Mrs. Strickland doesn’t think her husband is a dull man.
B. It must be boring for the guest to talk with Mr. Strickland because of different interests.
C. Mrs. Strickland fears that her husband will make the guest die.
D. The guest will finally find Mr. Strickland is a humorous host.
【3】Which is the closest meaning to the underlined word “awfully”?
A. Personally.
B. Gradually.
C. Extremely.
D. Badly.
