10、ites. They were completely different from my own family.

The two oldest, Sarah and Jane, were college students, and the youngest, Amy had recently got a driver s license, and was excited about practicing her driving on the trip.The bi

12、g sisters let Amy take over. She came to an intersection with a stop sign, but Amy continued without stopping. The driver of a large truck, crashed into our car.Jane was killed instantly.When Mr. and Mrs. White arrived at the hospital, they hugged us all.To both of their daughters, and especially to

13、 Amy, over and over they simply said, “We re so glad that youre alive.“I was astonished. No blame.Later, I asked the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driving and had run a stop sign.Mrs. White said, “Janes gone, and nothing we say or do will bring her back. But Amy has her wh

14、ole life ahead of her. How can she lead a full and happy life if she feels we blame her for her sister s death?“They were right.

The sixth is a muscular sense responsible for directing your muscles in

20、telligently to the extent necessary for each action you perform. For example, when you reach for an object, the sensory nerves linking the muscles to the brain stop your hand at the correct spot. This automatic perception of the position of your muscles in relation to the object is your muscular sen

21、se in action.Muscles are stringly bundles of fibers varying from one five - thousand of an inch to about three inches. They have three unique characteristics, they can become shorter and thicker; they can stretch; and they can retract to their original positions. Under a high -powered microscope, mu

22、scle tissue is seen as long, slender cells with a grainy texture like wood.More than half of a person s body is composed of muscle fibers, most of which are involuntary, in other words, work without conscious direction. The voluntary muscles, those that we move consciously to perform particular acti

23、ons, number more than five hundred. Women have only 60 to 70 percent as much muscle as men for their body mass.

I always encourage such people, but I also ex plai

27、n that there s a big difference between “being a writer“ and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “You ye got to want to write,“ I say to them, “not want to be a writer.“The reality is that writing is a lonely, private an

28、d poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by for tune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When ! left a 20-year career in the U. S. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer (自由撰稿人), I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York a

29、partment building. It didn t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer. After a year or so, however, I still hadn t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough

30、to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn t going to be one of those people who die wondering“ What if?“ I would keep putting my dream to the test-even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the Shadow land of hope, and anyone with a

31、 dream must learn to live there.31 The passage is meant to _ .（A）warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience（B） advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer（C） show young people it s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fame（D

32、）encourage young people to pursue a writing career 32 What can be concluded from the passage?（A）Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding（B） A writer s success depends on luck rather than on effort.（C） Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.（D）The chances for a wr

33、iter to become successful are small. 33 Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?（A）He wasnt able to produce a single book.（B） He hadnt seen a change for the better.（C） He wasnt able to have a rest for a whole year（D）He found his dream would never come tru

34、e. 34 “people who die wondering. What if?“ (Line 3, Para.3) refers to “those _ .（A）who think too much of the dark side of life（B） who regret giving up their career halfway（C） who think a lot without making a decision（D）who are full of imagination even upon death 35 “Shadow land“ in the last sentence

35、 refers to _ .（A）the wonder land one often dreams about（B） the bright future that one is looking forward to（C） the state of uncertainty before ones final goal is reached（D）a world that exists only in ones imagination 35 Advertisement can be thought of as “the means of making known in order to buy or

36、 sell goods or services“. Advertisement aims to increase peoples awareness and arouse interest. It tries to inform and to persuade. The media are all used to spread the message. The press offers a fairly cheap method and magazines are used to reach special sections of the market. The cinema and comm

37、ercial radio are useful for lo cal market. Television, although more expensive, can be very effective. Public notices are fairly cheap and more permanent in their power of attraction. Other ways of increasing consumer interest are through exhibitions and trade fairs as well as direct mail advertisem

38、ent.There can be no doubt that the growth in advertisement is one of the most striking features of the western world in this century. Many businesses such as those handling frozen foods, liquor, tobacco and medicines have been built up largely by advertisement.We might ask whether the cost of advert

39、isement is paid for by the producer or by the customer. Since advertisement forms part of the cost of production, which has to be covered by the selling price, it is clear that it is the customer who pays for advertisement. However, if large scale advertisement leads to in creased demand, production

40、 costs are reduced, and the customer pays less.It is difficult to measure exactly the influence of advertisement on sales. When the market is growing, advertisement helps to increase demand. When the market is shrinking, advertisement may prevent a bigger fall in sales than would occur without its s

41、upport. What is clear is that businesses would not pay large sums for advertisement if they were not convinced of its value to them.36 Advertisement is often used to _ .（A）deceive customers（B） increase production（C） arouse suspicion（D）push the sale 37 The word “media“( in the first paragraph) includ

42、es _ .（A）the press（B） television（C） radio（D）all of the above 38 Advertisement is mainly paid for by _ .（A）the customer（B） the producer（C） increased sales（D）reduced prices 39 Advertisement can increase demand _ .（A）all the time（B） in any circumstances（C） in a growing market（D）in a shrinking market 40

43、 From the last sentence of this passage we conclude that _ .（A）businesses usually do not pay much for advertisement（B） businessmen know well that advertisement could bring them more profits（C） advertisement could hardly convince people of the value of the goods（D）advertisement usually cost businesse

44、s large amounts of money 40 “Fingers were made before forks“ when a person gives up good manners, puts aside knife and fork, and dives into his food, someone is likely to repeat that saying.The fork was an ancient agricultural tool, but for centuries no one thought of eating with it. Not until the e

45、leventh century, when a young lady from Constantinpole brought her fork to Italy, did the custom reach Europe.By the fifteenth century the use of the fork was widespread in Italy. The English explanation was that Italians were averse to rating food touched with fingers, “Seeing all mens fingers are

46、not alike clean.“ English travelers kept their friends in stitches while describing this ridiculous Italian custom.Anyone who used a fork to eat with was laughed at in England for the next hundred years. Men who used forks were thought to be sissies, and women who used them were called show - offs a

47、nd overnice. Not until the late 1600s did using a fork become a common custom.41 The custom of eating with a fork was _ .（A）brought to Europe from America（B） begun when forks were invented（C） brought to Europe from Asia（D）invented by Italians 42 By the fifteenth century forks were used _ use.（A）all
