19、)Money and Love/BWhen the Romantic Movement was still in its first favor, it was a common matter of debate (36) people should marry for love or for money. The young people concerned usually favored love, and their parents usually favored money. In the novels of the period the dilemma was felicitousl

20、y (巧妙地) solved by the discovery, (37) the last page (38) the apparently penniless heroine was really a great heiress. But in real life young men (39) hoped for this denouement (结局) were apt to be disappointed. Prudent parents, (40) admitting that their daughters should marry for love, took care (41)

21、 all the young men they met should be rich. This method was sometimes very successful; it was adopted, for example, by my maternal grandfather, who had (42) romantic daughters, none of (43) married badly.In these days of psychology the matter no (44) looks so simple as it did eighty years ago. We re

22、alize now that money may be the cause, or part of the cause, of quite genuine love; of this there are notable examples in history. Benjamin Disraeli, (45) became lord Beaconsfield, (46) in his youth, poor and struggling and passionately ambitious. He married a rich widow, much (47) than himself, and

23、 (48) by the world to be rather silly. Owing (49) her, he was able to make his career a success. A cynical world naturally assumed that he loved her money (50) than he loved her, but in this the world was mistaken; through out the whole of their married life he was deeply and genuinely devoted (51)

24、her. I do not suppose he would have loved her if she had been poor when he first knew her, but the gratitude which he felt for help (52) he owed to her kindly interest in him easily developed into a sincere affection. A great deal of affection is based upon the fact that its object is a help in (53)

25、 the purposes of the person who feels it. Men in whom ambition is the leading passion are likely to love women (54) assist them (55) their career, and it would be very shallow psychology to suppose that the love is not real because it has its instinctive root in self-interest.（分数：20.00）(1).A. whethe

30、e world. People from other countries know the names Washington, Kennedy and so on. However, many men who have served as President of the United States have not been famous in other parts of the world. One example is J Q Adams, the sixth man to serve as USPresident.Very little happened while Adams wa

31、s President. It was an unhappy time for him, and he wasnt very effective, when his term ended, he went back to the Congress and served as a representative sentative(众议院议员). While he was in Congress, people began to respect him more than they had done while he was President. Adams was strongly agains

32、t slavery and tried to outlaw it in Washington D. C. People began to look back on his presidency with a different view.

36、Choose the best title for this passage. A. Unfit PresidentsB. President Who Set Slavery FreeC. Unknown PresidentsD. Famous President, Adams（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.BMany a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there is a big difference between

37、 “being a writer“ and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at the typewriter. “You want to write,“ I say to them, “not want to be a writer.“The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying profession, for not every writer

38、is kissed by future. There are thousands whose expectation is never rewarded. When I left a twenty-year career (职业) in the US Coast Guard to become a freelance writer (自由撰稿人), I had no hope at all. What I did have was a friend who found me a room in a New York apartment building. It didnt even matte

39、r that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used typewriter and felt like a real writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadnt got a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I hardly made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed ab

40、out it for years. I wasnt going to be one of those people who die wondering: what if? I would keep putting my dream to the testeven though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.（分数：4.00）(1).The passage i

41、s meant to_.A. encourage young people to consider writing as a careerB. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writerC. show young people it is unrealistic for a writer to seek wealth and fameD. ware young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experien

42、ce（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).What can be concluded from the passage?A. A writers success depends on luck rather on effort.B. Real writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.C. Famous writers usually live in poor condition.D. The chances for a writer to become successful are small.（分数：1.00）A.B

43、.C.D.(3).Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A. He was not able to have rest for a whole year.B. He hadnt a change for the better.C. He was not able to produce a single book.D. He found his dream would never come true.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).“Shadowland“

44、 in the last sentence refers to_.A. a world that exists only in ones imaginationB. the bright future that one is looking forward toC. the state of uncertainty before ones final goal is reachedD. the beautiful land one often dreams about（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.CGood table manners are backCandlelight bathes

45、the restaurant guests in a friendly light, the menu is about to be served. Some guests are prepared to eat while others are looking around with nervous glances. Which knives and forks should be used first, and where should you put the napkin(餐巾)?For a while table manners were “out“. Now men and wome

46、n aged 30 or so are rediscovering the finer points of being polite.Good manners give a pleasant impression(印象). But how do you eat “properly“? The golden role is to act silently. You should not talk to someone with your mouth full. When eating a five-course meal-a frequent event during the holiday s

47、eason-guests neednt feel frightened by the variety of knives and spoons before them: you work your way towards the plate from the outside.Uncertain situations often can be mastered with common sense. For example, many unknown salad(沙拉) greens can be difficult to tell from one another, but you can cu

48、t them all with a knife. The napkin remains subject special care. The correct way is to fold it in half and lay it on your lap (膝上).If you leave your place, you should always place your napkin next to the plate. After the meal is over, both cloth and paper napkins are folded and not thrown onto the

49、plate.The proper table manners also can serve professional advancement. If a choice has to be made among several people for an important position, the employer may choose to lunch with them. Those who make noise with their lips certainly wont stand a chance.（分数：4.00）(1).How would you understand “table manners“ in the title?A. Act properly while eating.B. Choose proper kinds of food.C. Eat with knives, forks, and spoons.D.
