18．I was puzzled!Why was this old woman making such a fuss about an old copse which was of no use to anybody？She had written letters to the local paper，even to a national，protesting about a projected by-pass to her village，and，looking at a map，the route was nowhere near where she lived and it wasn't as if the area was attractive．I was more than puzzled，I was curious．
The enquiry into the route of the new by-pass to the village was due to take place shortly，and I wanted to know what it was that motivated her．So it was that I found myself knocking on a cottage door，being received by Mary Smith and then being taken for a walk to the woods．
"I've always loved this place，"she said，"it has a lot of memories for me，and for others．We all used it．They called it‘Lovers lane'．It's not much of a lane，and it doesn't go anywhere important，but that's why we all came here．To be away from people，to be by ourselves．"she added．
It was indeed pleasant that day and the songs of many birds could be heard．Squirrels watched from the branches，quite bold in their movements，obviously few people passed this way and they had nothing to fear．I could imagine the noise of vehicles passing through these peaceful woods when the by-pass was built，so I felt that she probably had something there but as I hold strong opinions about the needs of the community over-riding the opinions of private individuals，I said nothing．The village was quite a dangerous place because of the traffic especially for old people and children，their safety was more important to me than an old woman's strange ideas．
"Take this tree，"she said pausing after a short while．"To you it is just that，a tree．Not unlike many others here．"She gently touched the bark，"Look here，under this branch，what can you see？"
"It looks as if someone has done a bit of carving with a knife．"I said after a cursory inspection．
"Yes，that's what it is!"she said softly．
She went on，"He had a penknife with a spike for getting stones from a horse's hoof，and I helped him to carve them．We were very much in love，but he was going away，and could not tell me what he was involved in the army．I had guessed of course．It was the last evening we ever spent together，because he went away the next day，back to his Unit．"
Mary Smith was quiet for a while，then she sobbed．"His mother showed me the telegram．‘Sergeant R Holmes …Killed in action in the invasion of France．'…"
"I had hoped that you and Robin would one day get married．"she said，"He was my only child，and I would have loved to be a Granny，they would have been such lovely babies'-she was like that!"
"Two years later she too was dead．‘Pneumonia （肺炎），following a chill on the chest'was what the doctor said，but I think it was an old fashioned broken heart．A child would have helped both of us．"
There was a further pause．Mary Smith gently caressed the wounded tree，just as she would have caressed him．"And now they want to take our tree away from me．"Another quiet sob，then she turned to me．"I was young and pretty then，I could have had anybody，I wasn't always the old woman you see here now．I had everything I wanted in life，a lovely man，health and a future to look forward to．"
She paused again and looked around．The breeze gently moved through the leaves with a sighing sound．"There were others，of course，but no one can match my Robin!"she said strongly．"And now I have nothing-except the memories this tree holds．If only I could get my hands on that awful man who writes in the paper about the value of the road they are going to build where we are standing now，I would tell him．Has he never loved，has he never lived，does he not know anything about memories？We were not the only ones，you know，I still meet some who came here as Robin and I did．Yes，I would tell him!"
I turned away，sick at heart．

19．A new word has suddenly become wildly popular in China-"tuhao"-which loosely translated means"nouveau riche"．There have been more than 100million references to the word"tuhao"on social media since early September．
It's being used to describe everything from the new People's Daily building，to expensive celebrity weddings full of bling，and the new gold-coloured iPhone．
In Chinese"tu"means earth and"hao"means rich．To say someone is tuhao is to imply they come from a poor peasant background，and have made it rich quick-but don't quite have the manners，or sophistication to go along with it．It's like the term"nouveau riche"，says Professor Steve Tsang at the School of Contemporary Chinese Studies in Nottingham-but has even more negative meanings，suggesting a certain vulgarity（粗俗）．
"Tuhao"is actually an old word，dating back perhaps as far as the Southern Dynasty 1，500years ago，but it has always meant something rather different．During the communist revolution，from the 1920s to early 1950s，it was widely used to refer to landholders and gentry who would bully those beneath them．
This new usage of the term took off in September after a widely-shared joke about a rich，but unhappy man，who goes to a Buddhist monk for advice，expecting to be told to live a more simple life．The monk replies instead with the phrase："Tuhao，let's be friends!"
Chinese Internet users are highly creative in their use of language，and are constantly inventing，and re-inventing words as a way of getting past censorship（审查） rules．But in this case，its popularity seems to be down to the fact that it expresses China's changing society so well-many people sneer at those with wealth，but are secretly jealous．
67．What is the best title of the passage？A
A．Tuhao，a new popular word in China
B．The long history of Tuhao
C．The new usage of Tuhao
D．Tuhao，a newly-invented Chinese word
68．Which of the following may NOT be considered"tuhao"？D
A．A vulgar nouveau riche
B．A bully landholder
C．A quick-rich peasant without proper manners
D．A Buddhist monk．
69．The last but one paragraph mainly tells usB．
Awhat the new usage of the word is
B．how the word becomes popular again
C．why the unhappy man went to the Buddhist monk
D．what advice the monk gave the unhappy man
70．What does the underlined word in the last paragraph mean？C
A．respect B．envy C．laugh D．disbelieve．

16．I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it．Mother sat writing letters．Standing by her chair，looking at the ink bottle，pens，and white paper，I decided that the act of writing must be a most wonderful thing in the world．
Years later，during her final illness，Mother kept different things for my sister and brother．"But the desk，"she said again，"is for Elizabeth．"
I never saw her angry，never saw her cry．I knew she loved me； she showed in action．But as a young girl，I wanted to have heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter．
They never happened．And a gulf opened between us．I was"too emotional （易动感情的）"．But she lived"on the surface （表面）"．
As years passed，I had my own family．I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family．I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me．
My hope turned to disappointment，then little interest and，finally，peace-it seemed that nothing happened．I couldn't be sure that the letter had even got to Mother．I only knew that I had written it，and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not．
But the present of her desk told me，as she'd never been able to，that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work．I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside-a photo of my father and a one-paper letter，folded and refolded many times．It was my letter．
"In any way you choose，Mother，you always chose the act that speaks louder than words．"

3．To the American visitor Iceland is a very interesting country，partly because it is different in so many ways from what he or she is used to seeing at home．There are quite a few things that are not done，or that do not exist on the island-quite a few"nots"．
There is no pollution，for example．No dogs are permitted in Reykjavik，the capital．There is no television on Thursdays or during the entire month of July，and only three hours of black-and-white TV the rest of the time．There is no hard liquor on Wednesdays and no beer at any time．There are no handguns； only one jail of 35cells in the entire land-an admirable figure，even for a small country of 222000people．
There is no army，air force or navy．There is no tipping for anything．There are no large stores open on Saturdays and Sundays．Since Iceland is located just under the Arctic Circle，there is no darkness in summer and no daylight in winter．But thanks to the Gulf Stream，the climate is rather mild，with temperatures ranging from 34degrees Fahrenheit to 52degrees in July．
The rules on television，liquor，and guns are the result of governmental decision But the absence of pollution is due in great part to the fact that Iceland get its power from the enormous geysers[间歇（喷）泉]and the thousands of hot springs that come out of ground．They provide all the energy needed by the country．In fact，Iceland uses only 3percent of all its available power．
Iceland has been described as a democratic independent country where more fish are caught and more books published per person than anywhere else in the world．The Icelanders have always felt a particular love for literature．They composed their first works in the ninth and tenth centuries AD．These works were poems and tales about the kings，heroes，and heroines of Iceland and Norway．At first the stories were memorized and passed from generation to generation．They were finally written down between 1140and 1220．The Icelanders have never stopped writing ever since．"Rather shoeless than book-less，"they proudly say．
55．The American visitor enjoys visiting Iceland becauseD．
A．no dogs are permitted in the capital     B．the police do not carry handguns
C．the climate is rather mild              D．it is very different from America
56．The following statements are true EXCEPTD．
A．there are no soldiers in Iceland           B．the Icelanders don't drink beer
C．there is no service fee of any kind        D．there are no crimes in Iceland
57．It can be inferred from the passage thatD．
A．in winter the sun doesn't set in Iceland
B．the sun rises and sets regularly in Iceland
C．the climate in Iceland is rather mild because there is no daylight in winter

20．Perfectly Imperfect
I'm not cute or pretty or the girl any guy in their right mind would want．I'm ugly-there，I said it．Once，I found out that a girl I had considered to be my friend called me ugly behind my back．As much as I hate to admit it，it hurt，because she always pretended like we were good friends．
Just last week，a customer in the grocery store mistook me for a 20-year-old worker．But I'm only twelve!But I guess with my height and pimply（多粉刺的）face，it's not really their fault．Last night，my sister told me，"Robin，your face is so pimply and ugly I can die just looking at you，"and for the first time，I broke down in front of her．Although I knew she didn't mean it，the words were too much．I think no Prince Charming will ever come into my life on a white horse and put my life right，because I'm ugly．
So this morning，I went to see my cousin，sister Lyra，in hospital．We used to be really close but Lyra had cancer and her doctors said she wouldn't survive for long．I sat down next to her bed and told her about what was going on in my life．I expected her sympathy（同情），wishing her to say"It'll get better．"But instead，she said．"I'm jealous（羡慕） of you，Robin．"I was totally confused．Then she told me，"I would give anything to stay with my family longer，to fully realize all of my dreams，but I can't．I mean，who cares about looks？What the hell，if we weren't different，we'd be like clones（克隆）!Looks don't get you much．I mean，look at my boyfriend，Jake．He broke up with me right after I told him about my disease…"
Tears flooded Lyra's eyes and I hugged her，feeling my own tears pouring down my face．"As much as I wanted Jake to forget me，"she continued，"a part of me wanted him to be there with me when I leave so I wouldn't be afraid．I thought he would stay，but he chose to leave．"
My cousin took my hands in hers，"One day，you'll meet the perfect guy who'll treat you for who you are and understand you and love you．One day we all do，if we keep going．I will never have enough time to meet that guy．But Robin，you do．"
The same night，Lyra passed away．It broke my heart，seeing my only friend in the whole world leave like that．But even as the last beats in the heart monitor trailed off （变弱，停止），I knew Lyra had changed my life forever．She had made me realize something important：that each and every one of us is a Cinderella（灰姑娘），and we mustn't let our evil stepsisters get in between us and our destiny（命运，定数）．
46．According to the passage，which of the following events did NOT upset Robin？D
