    In some countries where racial prejudice is acute, violence has so come to be taken for granted as a means of solving differences that it is not even questioned. There are countries where the white man imposes his rule by brute force; there are countries where the black man protests by setting fire to cities. Important people on both sides, who would in other respects appear to be reasonable men, get up and calmly argue in favor of violence--- as if it were a legitimate solution, like any other. What is really frightening, what really fills you with despair, is the realization that when it comes to the crunch（关键时刻）, we have made no actual progress at all. We may wear collars and ties instead of war-paint, but our instinct remain basically unchanged. The whole of the recorded history of the human race, that tedious documentation of violence, has taught us absolutely nothing. We have still not learned that violence never solves a problem but makes it even acute. The sheer horror, the bloodshed（流血）, the suffering mean nothing. No solution ever comes to light the morning after when we dismally contemplate the smoking ruins and wonder what hit us.
    The truly reasonable men who know where the solutions lie are finding it harder and harder to get a hearing. They are despised, mistrusted and even persuaded by their own kind because they advocate such apparently outrageous things as law enforcement（执行）. If half the energy that goes into violent acts were put to good use, if our efforts were directed at cleaning up the slums and ghettos, at improving living standards and providing education and employment for all, we would have gone a long way to arriving at a solution. Our strength is sapped by having to mop up the mess that violence leaves in its wake. In a well-directed effort, it would not be impossible to fulfill the ideals of a stable social programme. The benefits that can be derived from constructive solutions are everywhere apparent in the world around us. Genuine and lasting solutions are always possible, providing we work within the framework of the law.
    72. What is the best title for this passage?
    A. Advocating Violence.            
    B. Violence Can Do Nothing to Diminish Race Prejudice
    C. Violence as a Legitimate Solution  
    D. Violence: The Instinct of Human Race
    73. Recorded history has taught us __________.
    A. violence never solves anything   B. nothing
    C. the bloodshed means nothing     D. everything
    74. It can be inferred that truly reasonable men ________.
    A. can’t get a hearing   B. are looked down upon 
    C. are persecuted      D. have difficulty in advocating law enforcement
    75. According to the author, the best way to solve race prejudice is ________.
    A. law enforcement   B. knowledge  C. nonviolence   D. mopping up the violent mess

    London—Lazy students can now give up on work altogether as two Oxford University students have made scores of A-grade essays（论文）on the website for students to copy.
    The essays are on the new website,“revise.it.”
    The website includes an “Essay Lab”designed to make cheating（舞弊）as effective and effortless as possible.
    Its homepage announces to surfers（网上冲浪者）:“The revise.it Essay Lab is a bank of hundreds of A-Level essays covering popular topics.”
    “Next time you are asked to write an essay,why not see what we have on the subject—if you are in a lazy state of mind you can even use our guide to writing the essays and then just hand them in.”
    Nick Rose and Jordan Mayo,both 19 and first from Manchester,spent much of their first year as students at the university setting up the website.There is no charge for downloading the essays.
    “I have never been very good at essay writing,”Rose admitted.“We don’t see essay bank as a cheating way.It’s a surprising valuable resource.You can learn a lot by reading other people’s work on the subject.”
    Among other tips,the website suggests inventing important speeches to give essays extra weight:“Popular people to quote（引用）are Douglass Hurd or Disraeli.”
    Hurd was a foreign secretary in the 1980s and Disraeli was a 19th century prime minister.
    Teachers are expressing their opinions by e-mail that they are angry about the website that “encourages students to cheat”,but students disagree.
    According to Rose:“Exams are a fight.It’s us against them.”
    65.It can be inferred from this passage that______.
    A.students who visit the website“revise.it”are all lazy
    B.students in Oxford University are all lazy
    C.websites in Oxford University are all set up by students
    D.websites can provide people with different kinds of information
    66.Nick Rose and Jordan Mayo set up their website for the purpose of______.
    A.helping students to cheat in exams
    B.helping students to improve their writing
    C.making money to pay for their schooling
    D.making their teacher free
    67.What Rose said at last suggests that in England______.
    A.it is difficult for students to pass their exams
    B.it is difficult for teachers to finish their teaching
    C.students are not satisfied with the education system
    D.students are too lazy to learn anything

    Money, or the lack of it, changes everything, and that includes how people will be working out in 2010.
    In these belt-tightening times  1 , cost-conscious workouts（锻炼）at home and at the gym topped the list of fitness trends for this year in a survey, followed  2  by shorter, more time-efficient regimens, such as  3  boot camp（强力集中训练） and circuit training.
    "People are looking  4  for ways to accomplish as much as possible with as little  5  time and money as necessary," said Cedric X. Bryant, chief science officer of the American Council on Exercise (ACE), which conducted the online poll of fitness professionals.
    "Last year money was on the list but this  6  year the majority of the respondents put  7  it as one of the top," he added.
    Bryant said some 600 ACE-certified fitness  8  professionals responded to the annual poll  9 , which the non-profit organization has been conducting for a decade.
    Other money-saving measures  10 , such as the shift from personal training sessions to small group training  11  classes and in-home workouts  12  using smaller, more portable equipment, also made the list.
    "Personal trainers are seeing they've got to respond to market needs  13  . Working with two to four clients at a  14  time they can charge less  15  but still get their hourly fee," Bryant said.
    Boot-camp workouts and circuit training, both of which burn  16  calories while building strength and endurance（持久性）, will be among the most popular trends in 2010, as time-constrained（受压制的） consumers  17  seek shorter, more intense activities.
    One bright spot is the rise of exergaming-type systems, like Nintendo's Wii Sports, Wii Fit and the PC-based Dancetown. Bryant says the fitness-based video games are turning up  18  in health clubs and senior centers.
    Functional training workouts, which are geared to improving the quality of life and the ability to perform everyday tasks, will remain strong  19 , and the use of computerized tracking and online training and scheduling tools will increase  20  in the coming year.
    (   ) 1. A. times           B. years            C. centuries        D. societies
    (   ) 2. A. caught          B. followed         C. covered      D. conducted

    Why do people work? Of course, you may have asked yourself the same question as why you have to work. “Self-interest” in its broadest sense, including the interests of family and friends, is a basic motivation（动力）for work in all societies. But self-interest includes more than providing for living or getting wealth that people usually think. For example, a sense of duty, a feeling of competing, and a pleasure in working are other reasons for working. Studies show that most of Americans would continue to work even if they have had enough money to live comfortably.
    When people work, they gain a contributing place in society. The fact that what they receive pay for their work means that what they do is needed by other people and what they are doing is necessary to society. Work can also place people in the larger class of society and provide all kinds of identities (身份) for them. In the United States, it is a cruel public fact that to do nothing is to be nothing and to do little is to be little. Work is commonly seen as the measure of an individual (个人). 
    Some scientists have shown some of the ways that work has effect on our lives. Generally, people who always do their favorite work are more open to new ideas and easier to get along with others, and as parents they pass these characteristics on to their children. Our work then is an important social thing that makes us know who and what we are.
    64. Generally, people work for _____.
    A. self-interest      B. family       C. earning a living               D. the country
    65. In the passage, “what they receive pay for their work” means _____.
    A. that the work of the worker is recognized by society
    B. what they do is needed by other people
    C. that they are a necessary part of the social class
    D. That the workers are clever
    66. In the last paragraph, we can conclude that the author thinks ____.
    A. that work can make the worker rich
    B. that work can affect their lives
    C. that work can make the worker tired
    D. that work can make the worker know the world well
    67. The title of the passage is “______”.
    A. The Identity and the Work   B. The Work and the Society
    C. The Society and Individual   D. The Importance of Work

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    A
    For most people, the word “fashion” means “clothes”. But people may ask the question, “What clothes are in fashion?” And they use the adjective (形容词) “fashionable” in the same way: “She was wearing a fashionable color.”
    But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs…and in languages.
    Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will see that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from his grandson in 1860.
    Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspapers, radios, telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours.
    New fashions mean that people will buy new things, so you see there is money in fashion.
    41  From this passage we know that “fashion” means _________.
    A  clothes   B  many things    C  most of the popular things    D  everything
    42  Which of the following things is fashionable today?
