7、 properly, and so it remains to me a country of 6 . I could go on with this list of surprises, but perhaps you had better make your own. Another 7 of our landscape is its exquisite moderation. It has been born of a compromise 8 wildness and tameness, between Nature and Man. One 9 for this is that it
8、 contains that exquisite 10 between Nature and Man. The fence and the gate are man-made, but are not severely regular and trim 11 they would be in some other countries. The trees and hedges, the grass and 12 flowers, all suggest that Nature has not been forced 13 obedience. The irregularity and colo
9、ring of the cottage make it 14 snugly into the landscape, and you feel it might have grown there, because it looks nearly as much a piece of natural history as the trees. In some countries, the cottage would have declared, “Man, the drainer, the tiller, the builder, has settled here.“ In this Englis
10、h 15 there is no such direct opposition. Men and trees and flowers, we feel, have all settled down comfortably together. The motto is, “Live and let live.“ This exquisite 16 between Nature and Man explains in part the charm of the older Britain. The whole town fitted snugly into the landscape, 17 th

14、、Part A(总题数：1，分数：10.00)The view over a valley of a ting village with thatched roof cottages around a church; a drive through a narrow village street lined with thatched cottages painted pink or white; the sight over the rolling hills of a pretty collection of thatched farm buildings-these are still
15、common sights in parts of England. Most people will agree that the thatched roof is an essential part of the attraction of the English countryside. Thatching is in fact the oldest of all the building crafts practised on the British Isles (英伦诸岛). Although thatch has always been used for cottage and f
16、arm buildings, it was once used for castles and churches, too. Thatching is a solitary (独自的) craft, which often runs in families. The craft of thatching as it is practised today has changed very little since the Middle Ages. Over 800 full-time thatchers are employed in England and Wales today, maint
17、aining and renewing the old roofs as well as thatching newer houses. Many property owners choose thatch not only for its beauty but because they know it will keep them cool in summer and warm in winter. In fact, if we look at developing countries, over half the world lives under thatch, but they all
18、 do it in different ways. People in developing countries are often reluctant to go back to traditional materials and would prefer modem buildings. However, they may lack the money to allow them to import the necessary materials. Their temporary mud huts with thatched roofs of wild grasses often only
19、 last six months. Thatch which has been done the British way lasts from twenty to sixty years, and is an effective defence against the heat.（分数：10.00）(1).Which of the following remains a unique feature of the English countryside?（分数：2.00）A.Narrow streets lined with pink or white houses.B.Rolling hil

24、y clam up? Take heart, more than 80 percent of the time, it“s the wife who brings up sticky marital issues, while the husband tries to avoid discussing them. This isn“t a symptom of a troubled marriage-it is true in most happy marriages. Lilian I watched many couples fight about one major issue. Aft

When you marry, you automatically inherit your set of unresolvable relationship problems. If you married somebody else, you“d have a different set. Patrick You“ll often hear that staying in a
26、 bad marriage is worse for everybody concerned-that getting divorced. That may be true if your home is so riddled with hostility it“s like a war zone. But I found that 75 percent of couples who rated their marriages as miserable but stayed married were happy five years later. Brandy Every couple exp
