参考答案

参考解析
解析:有两种类型的死亡:一种来得太早,让人猝不及防;另一种虽令人痛惜,但也算得上寿终正寝。当一个年轻人逝去,所有的可能都会使这一打击更加严重——如果还有时间的话,还有很多能做的、能看到的、能完成的事业。然而,当年纪很大的老人去世时,虽然这种失去对他们所爱的人来说一样是痛惜的,但是不会有同样未完成的惋惜。这时人们通常会说“这是他该去的时候了”,或“她度过了完满的一生”。但“完满的一生”的定义扩大了,两种死亡的分界线也正在退却。随着人的预期寿命的不断变化,整个社会对死亡和死亡时间的观念也随之变化——不只针对那些能写出定义时代的歌曲的天才,也针对我们这些还有自己未竟的事业的人。

考题 Passage TwoStarted in 1636, Harvard University is the oldest of all the many colleges and universities in the United States. Yale, Princeton, Columbia and Dartmouth were opened soon after Harvard.In the early years, these schools were much alike. Only young men went to college. All the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, Greek and Hebrew. Little was known about science then, and one kind of school could teach everything that was known about the world. When the students graduated, most of them became ministers (大臣) or teachers.In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could receive their training in Harvard's law school. In 1825, besides Latin and Greek, Harvard began teaching modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began teaching American history.As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them.Today, there are many different kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are made up of smaller schools that deal with (涉及) special fields of learning. There's so much to learn that one kind of school can't offer it all.36.

考题 资料:Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it possible for us to recognize people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child or even an animal, such as a pingeon can learm to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted. We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone’s personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others. Like the human face human personality is very complex. But describing someone’s peronality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a nice face looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a nice person, you might begin to think about someone who was kind, considerate friendly, warm, and so forth. There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Gordon Allports, an American psychologist, found nearly18,000 English words characterizing differences in people’s behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing or typing, his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types——people are described with such terms. People have always tried to type each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villain’s or the hero’s role. In fact, the words person and persoality come from the Latin persona, meaning mask. Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easily tell the good guys from the bad guys because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions. Which of the following is NOT true?A.People differ from each in appearance B.Different people may have different personalities C.People can learn to recognize faces D.People can describe all the features of others
