    My husband is a born shopper. He loves to look at things and to touch them. He likes to compare prices between the same items in different shops. He would never think of buying anything without looking around in several different shops. On the other hand, I’m not a shopper. I think shopping is boring and unpleasant. If I like something and I have enough money to take it, I buy it at once. I never look around for a good price or a better deal. Of course my husband and I never go shopping together. Doing shopping together would be too painful for both of us. When it comes to shopping, we go our different ways.
    Sometimes I ask my son Jimmy to buy some food in the shop not far from our home. But he is always absent-minded. This was his story.
    One day I said to him, ” I hope you won’t forget what I have told you to buy.” “ No,“ said Jimmy. “I won’t forget. You want three oranges , six eggs and a pound of meat.”
    He went running down the street to the shop. As he ran, he said to himself over and over again, “three oranges , six eggs and a pound of meat.”
    In the beginning he remembered everything but he stopped several times. Once he saw two men fighting outside a clothes shop until a policeman stopped them. One of them was badly hurt. Then he stopped to give ten cents to a beggar. Then he met some of his friends and he played with them for a while. When he reached the shop, he had forgotten everything except six eggs.
    As he walked home, his face became sadder and sadder. When he saw me he said, “I’m sorry, Mum. I have forgotten to buy oranges and the meat. I only remembered to buy six eggs, but I’ve dropped three of them.”
    小题1:The husband likes shopping because _______.
    A．he has much money.
    B．he likes the shops.
    C．he likes to compare the prices between the same items.
    D．he has nothing to do but shopping.
    小题2:They never go shopping together because_______.
    A．their ways of shopping are quite differentB．they hate each other.
    C．they needn’t buy anything for the familyD．they don’t have time for it.
    小题3:Jimmy can’t do the shopping well because _______.
    A．he is youngB．he is absent-minded
    C．he often loses his moneyD．he doesn’t like shopping
    小题4:Jimmy didn’t buy what his mother wanted because_______.
    A．the shop was closed that dayB．the policeman stopped him
    C．he forgot some of themD．he gave all the money to the beggar

    小题1:C
    小题2:A
    小题3:B
    小题4:C

    小题1:细节题：第一段的句子：He likes to compare prices between the same items in different shops.可知作者丈夫喜欢对比价格。选C
    小题2:推理题：从第一段的描述，作者和丈夫的购物方式完全不同，所以从不一起去购物。选A
    小题3:细节题：从第二段的句子：But he is always absent-minded. 说明Jimmy总是走神，选B

    The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled，pain-free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness．If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness．But in fact，the opposite is true：more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain．
    As a result，many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness．They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage， raising children， professional achievement，religious commitment，self improvement．
    Ask a bachelor （单身汉）why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying．If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment．For commitment is in fact quite painful．The single life is filled with fun，adventure，excitement．Marriage has such moments，but they are not its most distinguishing features．
    Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three-day vacation．I don’t know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children．But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild．
    Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations．It liberates time：now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness．It liberates money：buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless．And it liberates us from envy：we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all．
    小题1:According to the author，a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because          ．
    A．he finds more fun in dating than in marriage
    B．he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains single
    C．he is reluctant to take on family responsibilities
    D．he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement
    小题2:Raising children，in the author’s opinion，is           ．
    A．a moral duty B．a thankless job
    C．a source of inevitable pain D．a rewarding task
    小题3:From the last paragraph，we learn that envy sometimes stems from       ．
    A．hatred B．misunderstanding C．prejudiceD．ignorance
    小题4:To understand what true happiness is one must        ．
    A．be able to distinguish happiness from fun
    B．make every effort to liberate oneself from pain
    C．put up with pain under all circumstances
    D．have as much run as possible during one’s lifetime
    小题5:What is the author trying to tell us?
    A．It is important to make commitments．
    B．One must know how to attain happiness．
    C．Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain
    D．It is pain that leads to happiness．

    A dog can’t speak words, but it can “talk”. It has feelings just as you do. At times it may feel angry or afraid. Watch a dog closely. You can see what it is trying to tell you. When you are afraid, you may look down shyly. A fearful dog looks away from you. It may run away too. When you are angry with people, you stare at them and press your lips together. An angry dog also stares. Sometimes the hair along its back stands up.
    Do you feel guilty when you have done something you shouldn’t? Dogs can feel guilty, too. At times when I come home, my dog gives me a guilty look. Then I know he’s done something wrong.
    Dogs need love and attention. Some dogs are very unhappy when they are left alone for a long time. Some dogs even snap(撕咬) if they don’t get enough attention.
    You may have a dog or you may know a dog. Treat it well if you want to have fun with it. Play with it. Take it on walks. Don’t order it round too much. Try not to punish it one time and not the next for doing the same thing. Always remember, a dog has needs and feelings just as you do. Talk to a dog, it’ll talk to you, too.
    小题1:If a dog snaps at things, it is because it may ______.
    A．feel lonelyB．feel shy
    C．be fearfulD．be disappointed

    Life in 2060
    Let us suppose it is now about A.D. 2060. Let’s make believe(假设；虚构) it is about sixty years from now. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.
    Voyages to the moon are being made every day. It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960 to take a holiday in Europe. At a number of scenic spots on the moon, many hotels have been built. The hotels are air-conditioned, naturally. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment(娱乐) of young and old.
    What are people eating now? People are still eating food. They haven’t yet started to take on heir(继承) supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power. They may some day. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants.
    Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a hundred years ago, most of our planet’s surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed by pests. The harvest is always good.
    Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then.
    People are now largely vegetarians(素食者). You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animals decreases. Therefore, the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain, and it is possible to get rid of diseases. No one has to be ill any more.
    Such would be our life in 2060.
    小题1:According to the passage, what will be on the moon in about A.D. 2060?
    A. Many tourists.   B. Many other animals.   C. Many plants.     D. A sea.
    小题2:What will people eat then according to the passage?
    A．Biscuits in pill form.B．Foods in gas form.
    C．Foods in water form.D．Foods in pill form.
    小题3:Why are people largely vegetarians in 2060?
    A．Because they don’t eat meat .
    B．Because doctors advise them not to eat meat.
    C．Because the number of animals decreases.
    D．Because all the animals have died of diseases.

    Exited about landing your first job after graduation? Good, work hard and get learning. Don’t forget to listen to young professional’s advice about the “real world” you’re stepping into.
    1. Keep up with current events.
    In school, it’s easy to live in a cocoon, where you focus on studies and social life. But in the working world, not knowing who Alan Greenspan is or why North Korea is in the news so often can lead to potentially embarrassing conversations.
    2. Consider living with parents, even if you have a job.
    Think it over before you rule it out. Not only can you save a lot of money by living at home, but your parents may provide emotional support that you may need. They can help pave the way for you to move once you are settled into your new life.
    3. Don’t compare yourself to other people your age.
    Young adults are good at putting up impressive appearance, but you don’t really know what their lives are like. Those who seem to have the perfect job may spend part of the day making coffee and picking up boss’s dry-cleaning.
    4. Pay attention to small jobs as well as big ones.
    Don’t stress if, in your first job or internship(实习期), you get a lot more face time with the copy machine than with clients. You may wonder why you spent so much time studying in school only to do such tasks. But you may also be learning more about your new professional than you realize.
    5. Know when it’s time to move on.
    Give a new job a chance, perhaps a year, before you make up your mind to leave, especially if it’s your first job out of school. When you’re sure that the job isn’t for you, figure out what you want to do and how to do it. Zhang Yue, 26, spent three years working as an accountant in Shanghai before becoming a financial planner. He loves his new job and spent 10 months searching for it: “To find something you really want to do takes time.”
    小题1: By mentioning Alan Greenspan, the author wants to show ____.
    A．how he succeeded
    B．why he is important to the world nowadays
    C．it is necessary to know key figures
    D．he has a strong effect on the world
    小题2:Which of the following is TRUE?
    A．Comparing yourself to other people your age will make you harmed.
    B．If you don’t have impressive appearance, you can’t pick up boss’ dry-cleaning.
    C．What you have learned in school may come to nothing in your first job.
    D．Even a small job can do good.
    小题3: The last sentence means “____”.
    A．It’s easy to find a new job once you have experience
    B．If you hope to do something, you need suffer too much
    C．You needn’t be worried, even though you are trying to find a good job
    D．It will take you time to find a job that suits you well
    小题4:The aim to write the passage is to ____.
    A．show how and why to get a satisfying job after graduation
    B．give some advice about how to behave when you work
    C．encourage people to ask for help from parents
    D．expect people to fit in with the working conditions as soon as possibl

    We’re all connected. You can send an e-mail message to a friend, and your friend can pass it on to one of his or her friends, and that friend can do the same, continuing the chain. Eventually, your message could reach just about anyone in the world, and it might take only five to seven e-mails for the message to get there.
    Scientists recently tested that idea in a study involving 24,000 people. Participants had to try to get a message forwarded to one of 18 randomly(随意地，随机地) chosen people. Each participant started by sending one e-mail to someone they knew. Those who received it could then forward the e-mail once to someone they knew, and so on.
    Subjects, who were randomly assigned by researchers from Columbia University in New York, lived in 13 countries. They included an Australian police officer, a Norwegian veterinarian, and a college professor.
    Out of 24,000 chains, only 384 reached their goal. The rest petered out, usually because one of the recipients was either too busy to forward the message or thought it was junk mail.
    The links that reached their goal made it in an average of 4.05 e-mails. Based on the lengths of the failed chains, the researchers figured out that two strangers could generally make contact in five to seven e-mails.
    The most successful chains relied on casual acquaintances rather than close friends. That’s because your close friends know each other while your acquaintances tend to know people you don’t know. The phenomenon, known as the strength of weak ties, explains why people tend to get jobs through people they know casually but aren’t that close to.
    So, start networking and instant messaging now. As they say in show business: It’s all about who you know.
    小题1:If you want to get into touch with a stranger in the world, how many e-mails might it take for the message to reach him/her?
    A．5 to 7B．18C．13D．384
    小题2:Who does the word “subjects” refer to in the passage?
    A．the 384 participants who lived in Australuia
    B．the Norwegian veterinarians and college porfessors
    C．the 24,000 people randomly assigned by reaearchers
    D．the 18 people randomly chosen from 13 countries
    小题3:What does the phrase “peter out” mean in the fourth paragraph？
    A．die outB．pass awayC．disappearD．pick out
    小题4:Why do people tend to get jobs more easily through casual acquaintances than close friends?
    A．Because close friends don’t talk with each other so much.
    B．Because casual acquaintances can help you know more people and make more friends.
    C．Because close friends don’t spend so much time gathering together.
    D．Because casual acquaintances are kinder and more willing to help others.
    小题5: In which part of a newspaper will readers read this passage?
    A．Culture B．EntertainmentC．Information and TechnologyD．Health
