本文是英國(guó)女作家洛特·勃朗蒂的代表作《簡(jiǎn)愛》的節(jié)選,講述了 Jane Eyre 的苦難生活片斷。Jane Eyre 從小父母雙亡,與嬸嬸及堂兄妹住在一起,不過常被堂兄妹戲弄。后來被Mr Brockehurst 領(lǐng)到他開辦的學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)。在那里學(xué)習(xí)了 6 年后她在 Thornfield 當(dāng)了一名私人教師。
1. C。從 …with my aunt and cousins who treated me unfairly. My cousins teased me… 可推測(cè),“我”過著很悲慘的生活。
2. B。前部分為 My cousins teased me,那么由 and 連接的內(nèi)容應(yīng)與前部分內(nèi)容在語意上保持一致,故此處應(yīng)為 my aunt never showed me any love。
3. A。從上下文可知堂兄妹及嬸嬸對(duì)“我”都不好,此處舉例說有一次堂兄對(duì)“我”大吼大叫,突出了堂兄的霸道,后面直接引語為大叫的內(nèi)容。shout at sb 意為“對(duì)某人大吼大叫”,往往含有貶義。
4. B。因與堂兄打架,“我”被鎖進(jìn)了一間屋子,由此可推測(cè)“我”獨(dú)自呆在那里哭泣。live 指長(zhǎng)時(shí)期的居住,不合語境。
5. D。從下文來看,“我”被虐待的情況一直持續(xù)到 Mr Brockehurst來這里訪問。
6. C。從下文 But after an illness killed several students, new owners… 來看,這里不是強(qiáng)調(diào)誰建的學(xué)校,而是誰是學(xué)校的擁有者,因這才有權(quán)決定讓像“我”這樣的孩子去上學(xué)。
7. C。前面說 Mr Brockehurst 來見“我”,并讓“我”去上學(xué)。由此推測(cè)兩天后“我”離開家去上學(xué)了。這與本段第 1 句話相吻合。
8. B。從下文的 The food was bad and I was often cold… 來看,此處說的是一開始在 Lowood School 的生活問題。
9. B。根據(jù)句中的 but 及 and 可知此部分應(yīng)與 enjoyed studying 在語意上保持一致,故此處應(yīng)用 friends,即 make friends(交朋友),這也是讓人高興的事情。而 make noise 和 make faces 都不合乎語境。
10. A。從上下文及搭配關(guān)系看,此處應(yīng)選 took over,意為“接管”。從此開始,“我”的學(xué)校生活有了轉(zhuǎn)機(jī),生活大大改善了。
11. C。上文說“我”在學(xué)校里學(xué)習(xí),后面為 a teacher,這說明“我”的身份發(fā)生了變化,故用 become。
12. B。根據(jù)下文內(nèi)容 My new life ___15___ at Thornfield Hall, a large country house 及 my time was mainly spent with Adele and the servants 可知“我”在一個(gè)家庭當(dāng)了私人教師。
13. B。從上下文來看,此處說的是 Bessie 來看“我”,并告訴“我”7年前叔叔曾來找過“我”。
14. A。這是 Bessie 告訴“我”的話的內(nèi)容。從后面的 I wondered if he would ever look for me again 可推測(cè),7 年前叔叔來找過“我”。
15. C。從上下文來看,這里談?wù)摰氖恰拔摇睆氖录医痰拈_始。
16. B。從前面可知“我”開始了新的工作——家教。此處是對(duì)新工作的具體說明,即教一個(gè)名叫 Adele 的女孩。
17. B。從下文 my time was mainly spent with Adele and the servants 可推測(cè),Mr Rochester 很少呆在家里。
18. B。前面說 Mr Rochester 很少呆在家里,這與后面的 my time was mainly spent with Adele and the servants 構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系,故此處選用so。
19. D。從后面的 Often I heard odd sounds ___20___ from the top floor of the house 等可推測(cè),當(dāng)時(shí)在這個(gè)新的家里有一些“我”感到奇怪的事情。strange 與后面的 odd語意一致。
20. A。這里用 come 表示“從某地傳來聲音”,其他選項(xiàng)都不合語境。

  Some time ago ,I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended ,as there are a whole lot of antique(古董)shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception(接待). I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't oven look at my chair.
  The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth - so I decided that my approach must be wrong.
  I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper,“ Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said,“ Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,”I said. “OK, ”he said, “I’ll give you twenty pounds. ”“It ‘s got a slightly broken leg,”I said. “Yes, I saw that, it's nothing.”
  Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?”I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done. ”“I'll buy it,”I said. “What do you mean?You’ve just sold it to me,”he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I'm sorry, I'll give you twenty -seven pounds for it. ”“ Your must be crazy, ”he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair. ”“ You’re right, ”I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said,’Would you mend this chair for me I wouldn't have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver?”He was a very nice man and was greatly amused(感到有趣)by the whole thing.
  小題1:We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer ________.
A.was rather impolite

D.a(chǎn)sked the shopkeeper to repair his chair

When I was a stay-at-home mom, there were times I wished I could buy some beautiful flowers, but the money that they would cost was needed in the home. When I walked into town with the family, my youngest daughter, Lily, would always carry a flower stem(花梗). That’s how she got the nickname “Stick Girl”.
One day when we passed the flower lady with Lily, the flower lady smiled at her and said, “Come here. I have something for you.” She handed her a beautiful flower. Lily dropped the stem and held on to that flower until we came back home. We placed it in water and enjoyed the beauty of that flower along with the feelings of warmth and kindness from the flower lady.
My neighbors would run to her to get a bouquet of flowers whenever they wanted to, and I used to give directions(為人指路) using the flower lady. I would say, “Walk for three blocks. You’ll see the flower lady. Turn right at that street.”
My mom visits me each year. On her first summer visit this year, she looked at me and asked, “Where’s the flower lady?”
I had no idea. The flower lady had been an icon(偶像) for me for 16 years, but now she wasn’t there any more.
I went on a search and soon found her in another spot, at the Harbor Loop. I was glad to see her and I had to tell her that she was missed!
I have a garden which I admire very much now. Every time I see those bright colors when I come home after a day of work, I remember the generosity of a dear old lady whom I only know as the flower lady.

B. paid for it and walked home quickly

Last July, my 12-year-old car died on California’s Santa Ana Freeway. It was an hour before sunset, and I was 25 miles from home. I couldn’t reach anyone to pick me up, so I decided to take a bus. Not knowing the routes, I figured I’d just head east.
A bus pulled up, and I asked the driver how far she was going. “Four more lights,” she said. There was another bus I could take from there. This clearly was going to be a long night.
She dropped me off at the end of her route and told me which bus to look for. After waiting 30 minutes, I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home. Then a bus pulled up. There was no lighted number above its windshield(擋風(fēng)玻璃). It was out of service. But the door opened, and I was surprised to find that it was the same driver.
“I just can’t leave you here,” she said. “This isn’t the nicest place. I’ll give you a ride home.”
“You’ll drive me home in the bus?” I asked, perplexed(困惑).
“No, I’ll take you in my car,” she said.
“It’s a long way,” I protested.
“Come on, ” she said. “I have nothing else to do.”
As we drove from the station in her car, she began telling me a story. A few days earlier, her brother had run out of gas. A good Samaritan picked him up, took him to a service station and then back to his car. “I’m just passing the favor along, ” she said.
When I offered her money as a thank-you, she wouldn’t hear of it. “That wouldn’t make it a favor, ” she said. “Just do something nice for somebody. Pass it along.”
1. Why did the writer say that he would have a long night?
A. He wondered how long he had to wait for the next bus.   B. No driver would give him a ride.
C. He didn’t know the routes.                            D. He perhaps would have to take a taxi.
2. Judging from its context, the place where the writer waited for the second bus was _______.
A. very quiet and peaceful                 B. dark without street lights
C. neither clean nor beautiful             D. a little unsafe
3. Why did the writer change his mind after waiting for 30 minutes at the end of the route?
A. No bus would come at the time.          B. A taxi ride would be more comfortable.
C. He became impatient and a bit worried.   D. He knew the driver would never return.
4. The bus driver drove the writer home later because ________.
A. she happened to go in the same direction  B. she wanted to do something good for other people
C. her brother told her to do so             D. she wanted to earn more money
5. The bus driver hoped that the writer ________
A. would do as she did                    B. would keep her in memory

Life is difficult.
It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult.
Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent(代表) a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, or even their nation.
What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause in us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.
Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning.
Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of the human spirit, we encourage the human ability(能力) to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt, instruct.” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.
56. From the passage, it can be inferred that ______.
A. everybody has problems          
B. we become stronger by facing and solving the problems of life
C. life is difficult because our problems bring us pain
D. people like to complain about their problems
57.The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to ______.
A. save space                B. persuade readers 
C. make readers laugh         D. get reader's attention
58. The main idea of paragraph 3 is that ______.
A. most people feel life is easy     
B. the writer feels life is easy
C. the writer likes to complain about his problems
D. most people complain about how hard their lives are
59. According to the passage, we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to ______.
A. encourage them to learn  
B. teach them to fear the pain of solving problems
C. help them learn to deal with pain
D. teach them how to respect for problems

                    B
Tony Bennett, the American singer recently touring Britain, can't remember how many times he has sung his standard hit "I Left My Heart in San Francisco". He sang it again to his audience at the London Palladium last night.
"I never get tired of singing it," he said, "I like it very much. It's a great city and it's a good song."
Bennett is to record a TV special with the American singer Lena Horne while he is here. And a new LP recorded by him in London for Philips titled "Listen Easy" will be published in June.
"I like it here," he added quietly over whiskey. "I would like to live here so many months of the year."
He already keeps a large flat in Grosvenor Square, where he is staying with his actress wife Sandie Grant and their three-year-old daughter Joanna. It has a studio where he likes to paint. Tony plans to have his first exhibition later in the year and he has already sold one picture for $4,000. At the end of the year Tony is to star in a musical film which has been specially written for him called "Two Bits", an informal expression for 50 cents. It's about an Italian immigrant(移民) who goes to America, but he becomes a failure.
"In many ways it's very close to my life the way the story has been written," said Bennett. "My father, an Italian, was ill and died when I was nine. He always wanted me to sing, but he never lived long enough to be a part of my success."

60. The underlined phrase "standard hit" in the first paragraph most probably means "_____".
A. Bennett's favorite song that's not very popular
B. a song that is always popular
C. a song which is like a heavy blow to his audience
D. a song which makes him standard
61. According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?
A. "Two Bits" is a musical film.
B. Tony is to star in a film.
C. "Listen Easy" is a new record by Bennett.
D. "Listen Easy" has been published.
62. What does Tony Bennett want to do?
A. Buy a house and live in England.
B. Stay with his wife and daughter in England.
C. Live part of each year in England.
D. Leave America and settle in England.
63. What can we learn about Tony Bennett's father from this text?
A. He liked his son's singing.
B. He was born in Italy and died in America.
C. He was a part of Bennett's achievement.
D. He was glad that his son became famous.
