【原文】

W: I think I want to go back to school, Paul.

M: Well, that’s a nice idea, Cindy. But what would you study?

W: I’m not sure. I’ve always been interested in psychology. I think I’d do really well.

M: Uh-huh. It’s not that I don’t believe in you, sweetheart. You were always a good student. But it’s different when you’re an adult going back to school.

W: Well, I don’t think I’d have any problems making friends. Lots of older folks get a second B.A. degree later in life, just like I would be doing. And besides, I’ve always been young at heart. I’m sure I’d get along with the other students. And I think I’d be an even better writer and test-taker now than when I went to college in my late teens and early twenties.

M: Yeah…but that’s not what I’m worried about, honey. Have you given any thought to what you’d do when you graduate?

W: I suppose I’d look for a job.

M: And what do you know about jobs in the field of psychology?

W: Not too much, I guess. But I could start small and work my way to the top.

M: That sounds like something a person might say about a big company on Wall Street. Psychology is different. There just aren’t that many jobs in that field right now, and the ones that are out there don’t pay much unless you have a Ph.D. I mean, we have two kids to feed, you know?

【題目】 Three brown bears in the distance catches Charlie Russell’s eye. When they get a metre or so away from him, the huge animals slow down. The leading bear holds her face very close to Rusell’s. She touches his nose with her own and Russell breaks into a smile. “Hey, little bear,” he says.

Rusell, now 70, has spent more than ten springs and summers living with brown bears in the eastern-most part of Russia.“No question, bears are dangerous,” says Russell, but he also argues that fearing them prevents us from recognizing their intelligent, playful and peaceful nature. “They attack us because we abuse them.” he insists.

“What I want to do now is work on the human side of the problem,” Russell says. In Canada —a country where cities spread deep into the rural landscape and hunters kill about 450 bears annually, he is determined to change the way we treat our neighbors.

Russell was raised with the idea that “the only good bear is a dead bear.” His father, a hunter, shared stories of cruel brown bears with his five children. However, when the family’s hunting business declined in the early 1960s, Russell joined his father on an expedition to film brown bears in Alaska. Russell couldn’t help but wonder why bears behaved aggressively towards people carrying guns, but left the film-makers alone. “I suspected they didn’t like cruelty,” he says.

In 1994 he tested out his theory in British Columbia’s Khutzeymateen Inlet, where he took tourists on bear-viewing tours. One afternoon, while resting on a log between guiding trips, Russell sat still as a female brown bear casually approached. “I knew if I did not move, she would keep coming,” he later said. “I had decided to let her come as close as she wanted.” Russell spoke to the bear in gentle tones and she sat down beside him. She put her paw on his hand and Russell responded to the gesture, touching her nose, lip and teeth. These were the iron jaws featured in his father’s campfire stories, now no more threatening than the nose of a little dog. If he could repeat similar moments, Russell believed he could prove that “just by treating bears kindly, people can live safely with them”.

【1】According to Russell, bears attack humans because they ________.

A.mistreat themB.are afraid of them

C.mistake their playful tricksD.have no idea of their real nature

【2】The underlined part in Para. 4 suggests ________.

A.a good bear never diesB.a live bear is dangerous

C.the only good bear is deadD.a bear is aggressive to gun holders

【3】The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to ________.

A.show us how brave he isB.warn us not to approach bears

C.encourage us to play with bearsD.tell us to live in peace with bears

【題目】Mother’s Day is a time of memory and celebration for Mom. The earliest Mother’s Day celebrations date back to ancient Greece in honour of Rhea, the Mother of Gods. During the 1600s, England celebrated a day called “mothering Sunday”. Celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent(四旬齋)，“mothering Sunday” honoured the mothers England.

During the time many of the England’s poor worked as servants for the wealthy.AS most jobs were located far from their homes, the servants would live at the houses of their employers. On Mothering Sunday, the servants would have the day off and were encouraged to return home and spend the day with their mothers. A special cake, called the mothering cake, was often brought along.

As Christianity(基督教) spread throughout Europe, the celebration changed to honour the “Mother Church”---the spiritual power that gave them life and protected them from harm. Over time the church festival combined with mothering Sunday celebration. People began honouring their mothers as well as the church.

In the United States Mother’s Day was first suggested in 1872 by Julia Ward Howe as a day devoted to peace. Then in 1907 Ana Jarvis, from Philadelphia, began a campaign(運動) to establish a national Mother’s Day. Ms Jarvis persuaded her mother’s church in Grafton, Virginia to celebrate Mother’s Day on the second anniversary of her mother’s death, the 2nd day Sunday of May. By the next year Mother’s Day was also celebrated in Philadelphia.

Ms Jarvis and her supporters began to write to ministers, businessmen, and politicians demanding to establish a national Mother’s Day. It was successful as by 1911 Mother’s Day was celebrated in almost every state. President Woodrow Wilson, in 1914, made the official announcement that Mother’s Day was a national holiday and it was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May.

While many countries of the world celebrate their own Mother’s Day at different times throughout the year, there are some countries such as Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, and Belgium which also celebrate Mother’s Day on the 2nd Sunday of May.

【1】What is the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph?

A. To raise questions. B. To introduce the topic.

C. To interest readers. D. To solve problems.

【2】The earliest Mother’s Day was celebrated to___________.

A. mark the birth of Greece B. prepare for the autumn harvest

C. honour the Mother of Gods D. honour the mothers of England

【3】The fourth and fifth paragraphs mainly talk about___________.

A. the feast of Mother’s Day in the U.S.

B. the origin of Mother’s Day in the U.S.

C. the development of Mother’s Day in the U.S.

D. the celebration of Mother’s Day in the U.S.

【4】The passage is intended to______________.

A. give readers some information B. persuade readers

C. report a story D. amuse readers

【題目】The play The Doctor’s Dilemma by George Bernard opens on the day when Ridgeon, a famous research doctor，is knighted (封爵)．His friends gather to congratulate him.The friends include Sir Patrick, a wellknown old physician, Walpole, an aggressive surgeon, Sir Ralph Bloomfield Bonington, an attractive society doctor, and Blenkinsop, an honest government doctor.Each one has his favorite theory of illness and method of cure._One_man’s_cure_is_another_man’s_poison，but they all get along.

A young woman (Mrs Dubechat) desperately seeks help for her husband from Ridgeon, who has evidently found a way to cure her husband’s illness.Ridgeon initially refuses, but then he changes his mind for two reasons — Mr Dubechat is a fine artist and Ridgeon falls in love with his wife.

When the doctors meet Mr Dubechat, however, they find that he is a dishonest person.Ridgeon eventually decides to treat Blenkinsop，who has the same disease, and refers the artist to Bloomfield Bonington.As a result, he will die.In the end, Ridgeon justifies his behavior as a plan to let Mr Dubechat die before his wife finds out how dishonest he actually was.This, in fact, happens and Mr Dubechat’s artistic reputation grows.

At one level this play deals with allocation (分配) of rare medical resources.Which of the two men will Sir Ridgeon save? Blenkinsop is an honest doctor who works for the poor.Mr Dubechat is a charming sociopath (反社會者)，who happens to be an extraordinary artist.

Ridgeon solves this problem with an interesting moral twist — he explains that Mr Dubechat’s death will be a benefit because it will keep his reputation .It will also potentially benefit Ridgeon, who wants to get Mrs Dubechat.
