【題目】I like travelling very much. 1 They are wonderful adventures filled with new sights and experiences. And my wife and I have another trip in the planning stages.

We're home now and have settled back into our daily routine of life. 2 I find that when I am at home, particularly for a while when we have just returned from a trip, I feel very comfortable. Perhaps it is because everything around me is familiar and the daily routine is so much the same and I can move through it almost without thinking. 3 Perhaps it is because we can have meals at home instead of always being in restaurants, although it's nice to let someone else do the cooking, and because I can sleep in my own bed. There are times I think it would be nice to simply stop travelling and stay home.4

Yet I guess I am probably a restless soul because I know that after I have been home for a while I will start to think about other places we might go and other things we want to see. 5 We will travel again and we feel fortunate to be able to do so. Still, one of the best things about travelling for me is coming home. I'm very comfortable here at home even if it is difficult to say exactly why.

A. I enjoy local food while travelling.

B. I like being home,for whatever reason.

C. Perhaps it is because our friends are here.

D. And I enjoy my daily life at home so much.

E. It’s lucky that my wife and I both love travelling.

F. The world is filled with people who are travelholic.

G. I have been fortunate enough to make trips to many countries.

【題目】At 27, after serving in World War II, I dreamed of owning a piece of land. So I moved from central Illinois to Shelbina, Missouri, and bought 236 acres for $6,000. The land was situated on a dirt road and was half farmland and half trees, with an old house that had no running water or electricity. Obviously, it was not what you’d call a perfect farm. But it was mine.

I was alone for the first time in my life, and I found it liberating. My days were filled from dawn until dusk with plowing and planting corn. Dinnertime came and went, and I barely remembered to eat.

I wouldn’t say I was a great success at farming in Missouri. However, when I went to the store to buy some tools, I met a nice woman named Claudette working behind the counter. I also ran into her at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Shelbina each week. I found out later that her manager kept asking her about “that tall boy from Illinois living out in the country in an old house with no water, no electricity and no housekeeper.”

Claudette and her sister soon visited my farm and put up some curtains. To show my appreciation, I took Claudette out for a ride in my truck. We married in 1954 and have now been together for more than 62 years!

I later sold the Missouri farm for a $3,500 profit and bought 40 acres in Illinois. For many reasons, buying the Missouri farm was a good idea. I will always cherish memories of owning the farm and meeting my beloved.

1Why did the writer buy the Missouri farm?

A. To marry a nice girl.

B. To live a liberating life.

C. To have his own land.

D. To earn more profit.

2What was Claudette when the writer met her?

A. A manager. B. A storekeeper.

C. A housekeeper. D. A shop assistant.

3What can we learn about the Missouri farm?

A. It was well furnished.

B. It led to a happy marriage.

C. It was 40 acres.

D. It made a successful farmer.

Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences in college or, easily, one of the worst.Follow these tips to avoid the common mistakes that turn good roommate relations bad.
Talk things out.
Communication is key. If something happens, sit down with your roommate and have a face-to-face conversation. I've seen roommate relations fall apart because something happens and, instead of talking to each other, the two start complaining about their roommates behind their backs.
Don't expect to be best friends.
Some roommates become the best of friends, and some don't. Don't put pressure (壓力) on yourself or your roommate, especially when you first meet. And if your roommate doesn't end up being your best friend, don't worry.
Ask before you take.
This applies (適用) to food, clothes and anything else. If you want to keep a relation going, show your roommate that you have respect for what is his or hers by asking first. Clean up.
This should do without saying. Don't be lazy. Or, at least, don't bury your roommate in your clothes and garbage. But being considerate with where you put your things will help you avoid conflict.
A. This creates nothing but terrible situations and unhappiness.
B. Even if you both agree to share everything, you should still ask.
C. So you need to think twice before you help your roommates out.
D. Sometime you get stuck with someone who has tons of bad energy.
E. You don't have all the time to clean your room and keep it organized.
F. It all starts with you to have a good relation with your roommate.
G. Remember, you're trying to make a new friend, not to frighten your roommate away.

【題目】閱讀下列材料,然后按要求完成材料后面的三個(gè)小題。
Dear Doctor,
My husband and I got married in 1990 and for the first ten years of our marriage, I was very happy to stay home and bring up our three children. Then four years ago, our youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work.
My husband agreed and helped me to make my decision. He said he thought I could be a great success in business. After several weeks of job hunting, I found my present job—working for a small public company. At first, my husband was very proud of me and would tell his friends, “My clever little wife can run that company.”
But as his joke was becoming true, my husband stopped talking to me about my job. I have received several promotions (升職) and pay increases, and I can earn more money than he can. I can buy my own clothes and new car.
But things begin to change. My husband is not happy. My husband is very unkind to me in front of our friends. For the first time in our marriage, I think our marriage may come to an end. I love my husband very much, and I don't want him to feel bad, but I also love my job. I think I can be a good wife and a working woman, but I don't know how. Can't you give me some advice? Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career?
Please help me.
Mary
