18、example, with in seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster, such as a flood, can bring help from distant countries. Within hours, help is on the way. This is becau

19、se modern technology information travels fast. How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller. Of course, this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication

20、 between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the oceans. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach the Americas. This time difference influenced peoples actions. For example, a few b

21、attles in the war of 1812 between England and the United States could have been avoided. A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans was fought. Many p

22、eople lost their lives after a peace treaty had been signed. They would not have died if news had come in time. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now. There was a good reason why the world seemed so much larger than it does today.（分数：10.00）(1).News spreads fast because of_.

I was coming out of a very bad marriage. For seven long years my husband

26、spent his every waking moment telling me just what was wrong with me. When I finally asked for a divorce, he answered by telling me that I would never find anyone to love me because I was just so unattractive. This went on for about two years. One night one of my friends convinced me to go out with

27、her. We went to a nightclub and thats when I met him. Clint was playing a game with a girl. I sat in the corner watching him. I didnt feel that I had whatever it took to get up and mix with others because of my self-esteem problem. Finally I got up the courage to order a drink for him. When he got i

28、t, he gave me the most dazzling smile. We spent the rest of the evening talking until I realized that it was almost morning. I figured that he was simply being nice to me because I had bought him a drink, but the very next day he called and told me that he could not stop thinking about me and that h

29、e wanted to meet my kids too. (81) About 3 months later, my divorce was final and Clint sat my boys down and asked them if it was all right with them if he asked me to marry him because he could not imagine life without the three of us anymore. I was so touched that he went to my boys and asked for

30、their approval because they were the “men of the house“ at the ripe old ages of 2 and 4. They said yes and we have all been together ever since. Clint gave me and my boys a second chance at a wonderful life. (82) Not a day goes by that he doesnt tell we are the best thing that ever has happened to h

31、im and that he loves us.（分数：10.00）(1).The writers first marriage was unsuccessful because_ .（分数：2.00）A.her husband often woke her up at midnightB.her husband kept criticizing herC.she was unattractiveD.she had a self-esteem problem(2).When the writer asked for a divorce, her husband_.（分数：2.00）A.told

35、ery day Clint would tell the writer that he loved herC.it helped her to regain her self respectD.it gave her and her sons a second chance to live a happy lifeThousands of years ago, ten of our very distant ancestors were hungry. They went out and picked berries or dug up roots to eat. Four of them c

36、hose poisonous food and died. The remaining six noticed that their food was safe to eat. They told their children, who, in turn, passed the message on to their descendants. In this way, habit became a vital factor in the survival of mankind : if you ate the right plant, you lived; if you wanted to m

37、ake your own experiments, you would probably die. The importance of habit on the survival of the human species is an interesting matter. Even today, most of us hesitate when we are invited to eat a new type of food or drink something we have not tasted before. Even if the food or drink is offered by

38、 a friend, we are usually not at all anxious to experiment and accept the offer. When you get up tomorrow morning, notice which shoe or sock you put on first. Then notice which one you put on first on other days. You may discover that (a) you tend to put on one shoe or sock first every day, and that

39、 (b) if you are right-handed, you usually deal with your left shoe or sock first. If you try to change this habit, you may find it uncomfortable or annoying, and you will soon return to your old habit. When it comes to other matters, we often follow a fixed pattern. We sleep in one or two favorite w

40、ays. We often follow familiar routes even when they are not the shortest or best. We often wear a watch on the same wrist even when there is no real reason for doing so. (83) In hundreds of other ways, we show that we are creatures of habit, following fixed patterns of behavior. This characteristic

41、can help us to survive but it can be a barrier to progress too. We must be alert and not let a beneficial factor become a harmful one.（分数：10.00）(1).The best title for this passage might be _.（分数：2.00）A.Habita Barrier to ProgressB.The Survival of MankindC.Various Patterns of Human BehaviorD.We Are Cr

42、eatures of Habit(2).The first paragraph of this passage is mainly about_.（分数：2.00）A.the danger of making experimentsB.the importance of habit in the survival of mankindC.the food our distant ancestors ateD.the behavior of younger generations(3).Which of the following statements is TRUE according to

43、Paragraph 2?（分数：2.00）A.Habit can be harmful to the development of mankind.B.People usually like to taste new things at the risk of their lives.C.Most people hesitate to eat new things they have never tasted before.D.People are usually willing to try a new food if it is offered by a friend.(4).The ex

44、ample shown in Paragraph 3 proves that_.（分数：2.00）A.it is difficult to change a habitB.habit can be changed easilyC.shoes and socks are essential in our daily lifeD.everyone puts on shoes and socks in the morning whether he is right-handed or left-handed(5).From the last paragraph we know that in the

45、 writers opinion_.（分数：2.00）A.habit can never become a harmful factorB.people develop all their habits with good reasonsC.habit will always help people to make progressD.people often behave in fixed patterns(84) Cancer is among the top killer diseases in our society today and scientists have found ou

46、t that stress helps to bring it on. It is worthwhile to consider, therefore, what are the causes of stress in our life, and whether we can do anything about them. Are we under-employed, or overburdened with too many responsibilities? Do we have a right balance of work and leisure in our lives? Are o

47、ur relationships with family, friends or fellow workers all they should be? All these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to face them honestly, and to bring our frustrations into the open. People who have a good row and then forget it are doing their health more good than those who bott

48、le up their feelings. (85) If our self-examination has brought any causes of stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them. It is possible to change jobs. We can make more leisure and fill it more happily, if we will accept a different living standard. We can improve our personal relati

49、onships by a different attitude. It is we who allow other people to make ourselves unhappy. Often the little things that disturb us are not worth an hours anger. The teaching in the Bible “Let not the sun go down upon your wrath“ is good advice from the health point of view as well as the religious.（分数：10.
