As holidays go, Thanksgiving is in some ways the most philosophical. Today we try not to take for granted the things we almost always take for granted. We try, if only in that brief pause before the eating begins, to see through the well-worn patterns of our lives to what lies behind them. In other words, we try to understand how very rich we are, whether we feel very rich or not. Today is one of the few times most Americans consciously set desire aside, if only because desire is incompatible with the gratitude—not to mention the abundance-that Thanksgiving summons.

考题 BThe world is not only hungry,it is also thirsty for water. this may seem strange to you,since nearly 75% of the earth is covered with water. But about 97% of this water is sea water.Man can only drink and use the other 3% fresh water that comes from rivers,lakes,under-ground and other places. And we cannot even use all of that,because some of this fresh water has been made dirty.At the moment,this small amount(数量) of fresh water is still enough for us. However,our need for water is getting greater and greater. Only if we take steps to solve this problem now,we can get away from a serious world water shortage later on. The people of the world cannot have an enjoyable life without enough clean water.On one hand we should stop wasting this little water of ours,on the other hand we should find ways to reuse it,but this has not been done widely.Today,in most large cities,water is used only once and it then returns to the sea or runs into underground places.lf we can make it clean again,it can be used once more just as if it were fresh from a spring.But even if large cities reuse its water,we still would not have enough in the future. Where.could we turn to next for water? To the ocean! How can we do to make use of this great a-mount of sea water? We can take the salt from the water to make it fresh.So if we take all these steps,we'll be in no danger of drying up!( )26. Why does the writer say that the world is thirsty for water?A. The amount of fresh water is really very small.B. The people of the world waste too much water.C. The people of the world have to drink a lot of water every day.D.

考题 Passage TwoWhen we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else is not so clear. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing, reading and sewing, become near sighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant (远处的) things clearly'.People who are nearsighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm's length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people's eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle (角度). To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object outof the other eye. You will find the object's relation to the background (背景) and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.40. We should take good care of our eyes ______.A. only when we cannot see perfectlyB. only when we can see wellC. even if we can see wellD. only when we realize how important our eyes are

考题 AWhy do plants grow in some places and not in others? Why does some land have so much growing on it,while other land has almost no plants growing on it at all?To grow plants need several things. One is warmth. In very cold places almost nothing grows. Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the earth only a few unusual plants can grow. That's why dry deserts everywhere are almost not covered by trees or grass.Plants must also have a place in which to f,ut down their roots and grow. They find it diffi-culr to grow on hard land. The town is built on hard land. The plants here have only the soil found between the cracks of the stones Io grow in.Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food.Whar will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach? A few plants,such as beach grass,will grow in sand,L ut most plants won-t. Even if the weather is warm enough.and we water the plants each day. Many of them will die because the sand on this beach has al-most no food for plants.( )21. According to the passage,plants need _________ things to grow well.A. twoB. threeC. fourD. five

考题 Psychology tells us that many people hate to take risks. But it is good for us to take risks, especially when the risk is to achieve a desired result. In that way, we become stronger and braver. Our human nature should be to take risks, but some people just sit and wish they didn't have the fear to move on. This is because they failed a few times in their lives. Please step out and don't let the past hold you back from living life to the fullest. Move forward and move on! In studying the psychology of taking risks, we find that human provides us with the desire to experiment and take chances. Risk taking is a great advantage that allowed our ancestors to become stronger and stronger day by day. By taking risks they fought off enemies and discovered new territories. This attitude has become a part of our modem culture. Riding a roller caster is a common risk taking activity. Even each person seems to enjoy the risk although they have the understanding that it is dangerous. This psychological and biological connection creates an interesting connection between what is unsafe and what humans enjoy. Getting in a car each day is a risk. Getting out of bed is a risk, too. We need to take risks so that we can complete many things. Astronauts take risks when they get inside a rocket; however,the things they achieve are great. Businessmen take a risk when they buy parts of a company, however, without doing that, they could not make more money. We need to take risks so that we can gain something. It is impossible to move forward in life, earn money, enjoy a relationship, play a sport, or doing anything else without taking a risk. It is all part of the game. It' s one of the most important parts of life. What can we infer from the passage?A.Daily life is full of risks. B.The safest place has the greatest risk. C.People should take risks when they are young. D.We can always achieve our goals by taking risks.

考题 It's almost impossible to go through life without experiencing some kind of failure.People who do so probably live so cautiously that they go nowhere.Put simply,they’re not real living at all.But,the wonderful thing about failure is that it's entirely up to us to decide how to look at it.We can choose to see failure as"the end of the world,"or as proof of just how inadequate we are.Or,we can look at failure as the incredible learning experience that it often is.Every time we fail at something,we can choose to look for the lesson we're meant to learn.These lessons are very important;they're how we grow,and how we keep from making that same mistake again.Failures stop us only if we let them.Failure can also teach us things about ourselves that we would never have learned otherwise.For instance,failure can help you discover how strong a person you are.Failing at something can help you discover your truest friends,or help you find unexpected motivation to succeed.

考题 问答题The lives of most men are determined by their environment. They accept the circumstances amid which fate has thrown them not only with resignation but even with good will. They are like streetcars running contentedly on their rails and they despise the sprightly flivver that dashes in and out of the traffic and speeds so jauntily across the open country. I respect them; they are good citizens, good husbands, and good fathers, and of course somebody has to pay the taxes; but I do not find them exciting. I am fascinated by the men, few enough in all conscience, who take life in their own hands and seem to mould it to their own liking. It may be that we have no such thing as free will, but at all events we have the illusion of it. At a crossroad it does seem to us that we might go either to the right or the left and, the choice once made, it is difficult to see that the whole course of the world’s history obliged us to take the turning we did.

It is easy to make judgments about people and their actions when we do not know anything about their circumstances or what motivated them to take those actions.
