【题目】A month went by in this manner, but a month was all I could bear.
The memory of Marguerite accompanied me wherever I went. I had loved that woman — still loved her — too much for her suddenly to mean nothing to me. Whatever feelings I might have for her now, I had to see her again. At once.
…
I knew Marguerite. Meeting me so unexpectedly must have thrown her into a state of great confusion. Probably, she had heard of my departure which had set her mind at rest as to the consequences of our sudden parting. But, seeing me back and coming face to face with me, weak as I was, she had sensed that my return had a purpose, and must have wondered what was going to happen.
If, when I saw her again, Marguerite had been unhappy; if, in taking my revenge (复仇), there had also been some way of helping her then I might well have forgiven her, and would certainly never have dreamed of doing her any harm. But when I saw her again, she was happy, at least on the surface. Another man had ensured her the wealthy life in which I had been unable to keep her. She brought shame both to my pride and my love; she was going to have to pay for what I had suffered.
I could not remain cold to what she did now. It followed that the thing that would hurt her most would be exactly for me to show coldness. Coldness, therefore, was the feeling which I now needed to pretend, not only in her presence but in the eyes of others.
I tried to put a smile on my face, and I went to call on Prudence with whom Marguerite was
staying.
…
Prudence saw me to the door, and I returned to my apartment with tears of anger in my eyes and thirst for revenge in my heart and thought only of finding a way to make the poor creature suffer.

A. the beginning B. a chapter

A. give Marguerite sufferings because his pride and his love were hurt
B. stop the relationship with Marguerite because he couldn’t afford a rich life

【3】What kind of feelings did the hero most probably have?
A. Coldness and love. B. Coldness and hate.
C. Love and hate. D. Hate and sadness.
【4】 What would the author most probably write about next?
A. Why he changed his mind suddenly.

【题目】Many songs, poems, and books have been written on love’s strong effect on people. The state of being in love has even been compared to being sick or mad. A study by Professor Semir Zeki of University College London has found that love does affect people’s brains by making them feel great.
Zeki studied young men and women who had recently fallen in love. He found that, when they were looking at photos of their loved ones, there was heightened activity in four areas of their brains. These areas deal with emotions, and one of them, in particular, is known to respond to drugs that cause feelings of great joy and excitement.
Interestingly, the study also found a lack of activity in two other areas of the brain when the volunteers looked at their lovers’ photographs. One of these areas is linked to feelings of sadness, while the other is often active in people suffering from depression. It seems love really can be uplifting.
The state of being in love, according to some scientists, may actually be good for your health. Although scientists know that being in love can make a person feel great, the exact influence of love on a person’s health is harder to determine. However, scientists say that people do need love in order to live healthy lives.
According to Dr. Thomas Lewis, people need to be in relationships because that is how we are designed. He says the brain can only maintain(保持) the overall stability of a person’s immune(免疫) system, bodily rhythms, and heart if it receives input(输入) from outside the body in the form of emotional connections with others.
Professor Antonio Damasio has a similar view. He says that love enriches a person’s imagination and creativity, and makes a person’s body work better. He also believes that love can even improve the body’s ability to fight against disease. Damasio’s wise words of advice are “ Choose love and you will live longer.”
【1】What is the main idea of this passage ? __________.
A. love can really cause people active
B. love has an effect on songs and books
C. love is linked with emotion
D. love is what we need
【2】What does the underlined word “uplifting” mean? It means __________.
A. inspiring B. available C. cold D. mad
【3】From the passage we can conclude that__________.
A. People write songs, poems and books to say love is the sweetest thing
B. nobody but Professor Semir Zeki has understood love does affect people’s brains
C. being in love sometimes may make someone act as if he/ she were mad
D. love causes heightened activity in all areas of a person’s brains
【4】Which of the following statements is not true?
A. Some scientists have the idea that love does good to people.
B. It is possible for scientists to decide how much influence love can give people.
C. People are born to be in need of getting on touch with each other.
D. A person’s health depends on partly on emotional connections with others.
