25、"I believe you're the right person to write an advice column(专栏)for the students called "Dear Amy!". Jenny, editor of the school newspaper, said to Andy, who finally agreed to accept the job if Jenny promised not to tell it to anyone else.
At first it wasn't too bad. Most of the letters he received were interesting and quite easy to answer. Then came a letter from a person named Joe.
"Dear Amy," it began, "I'm in real trouble. I've wanted to be a songwriter all my life, but my parents won't even let me take music lessons. I have a guitar, but they both get angry if I play. I've tried explaining, but they won't listen. I feel sad. Should I run away from home? Maybe that will make my parents agree." The letter signed(签名)"Joe".
Andy thought about this letter for a long time. Should he advise someone to run away from home? Of course not. But didn't Joe have a right to be a songwriter if he wanted to? Andy thought hard, but couldn't think out a good answer. Andy couldn't sleep. He just worried about poor Joe.
At a bar a few days later, Eleanor, a girl in Andy's Maths class, sat down next to him and asked,
"What's wrong with you? You look a little worried."
"I guess I do," said Andy.
"If you got a problem, why don't you try writing to Amy about it?" asked Eleanor.
Andy sighed (叹气); but she continued, "in fact, I guess Dear Amy is rather busy with other problems. She still hasn't answered thephonyletter I wrote her last week. You'd better read it – it may even make the most hard-hearted person cry! It was signed Joe, a songwriter."
【1】Andy might be_______.
A. a Math teacher
B. a songwriter
C. an editor of the school newspaper
D. a student in Jenny's school
【2】The underlined word "phony" perhaps means_______.
A. unreal B. sad C. angry D. impolite
【3】Who in fact wrote the letter?
A. Joe. B. Jenny. C. Andy. D. Eleanor.
【4】How did Andy feel at Eleanor's last words?
A. Excited. . B. Sad. C. Surprised. D. Worried.
26、A small ,white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree and it has been there for the past ten years or so.
It all began because my husband Justin hated Christmas—oh, not the true meaning of Christmas.Overspending was one thing, but compared to the difficult experience of choosing gifts—running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and a pair of gloves for Grandma…,spending money is nothing. I felt too tired to think of any special gifts.
Knowing Justin felt the same way, I decided one year not to buy the usual shirts, sweaters, ties and so on. I reached for something special just for Justin. The inspiration came in an unusual way.
Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling (摔跤)at the junior level at the school he attended; and shortly before Christmas, there was a match against a team sponsored (赞助) by an inner-city church.These youngsters, dressed in such worn-out shoes that shoe strings seemed to be the only thing holding them together, while our boys were in their blue and gold uniforms and new wrestling shoes.
As the match began, I was shocked to see that the other team were wrestling without wearing helmets (头盔) to protect their ears. Well, our boys ended up defeating them. We took every weight class.
Justin, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, “I wish just one of them could have won,” he said. “They have a lot potential (潜力) , but losing like this could take the heart out of them.” Justin loved kids—all kids, and he knew them, having coached little league football and baseball. That’s when the idea for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local sporting goods store and bought different kinds of wrestling helmets and shoes. I sent them to inner-city church without leaving my name.
On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Justin what I had done and that was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas that year and since then the envelope has become the highlight of our Christmas.
【1】Justin hated Christmas because _____.
A. he didn’t enjoy receiving gifts
B. he had a hard time choosing gifts
C. he spent too much money buying gifts
D. he disliked putting gifts under the Christmas tree
【2】We know from the passage that the team sponsored by inner-city church_____.
A. were well dressed B. paid no attention to safety
C. feared Kevin’s team D. couldn’t afford a helmet
【3】How did Justin feel about the team’s failure ?
A. Upset B. Angry C. Hopeless D. Shameful
【4】Why did the writer send gifts to the inner-city church without leaving her name ?
A. To avoid being thanked B. To play a joke on Justin
C. To give Justin a surprise D. To protect her private information
【5】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. The Church Gift B. A Special Note
C. The White Envelope D. A Christmas Card
27、A Pathway(路径) to Meaning in Life
When it comes to a meaningful life, we might think of love, happiness and health. A life filled with meaning is what most of us want for ourselves. Then, what makes a meaningful life?
Many researchers agree that a meaningful life comes down to three factors (因素) : having long-term goals, believing that one’s life matters, and feeling that one’s life fits together and “makes sense”.
But we believe there is more to consider. Sometimes life enables us to experience small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating (欣赏) such experiences, these moments may improve how they see their own life. We call this experiential appreciation (EA). EA is about the person feeling connected to events and being able to appreciate the value within the connection. It shows the discovery of and admiration for life’s beauty.
We recently set out to better understand EA in studies. We were interested in whether EA was also tied to general judgment of meaning in life. If so, it could be a factor for meaningfulness.
In the first study, we had people rate (评估) their support for different methods of reducing stress. We found that people who managed stress by focusing on their appreciation for life’s beauty also reported experiencing life as highly meaningful.
In the next study, we asked people to rate the degree to which they agreed with various statements, such as “I appreciate the beauty of life” and “I appreciate little things in life”, as well as other statements that related to the three factors and a general sense of meaning in life. Our results showed that the more people reported that they were “appreciating life” and its many experiences, the more they felt their life was valuable.
In the following studies, we further looked at the connection between EA and meaningfulness. For example, we found that people who were asked to look back on the most meaningful event of the past week generally reported high EA in those moments.
All the results proved our theory (假设) true. But putting it into practice can be difficult. Our fast-paced lifestyles fill the day with goals. We try to get the highest output both at work and in spare time. This focus on future outcomes makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. We should slow down and let life surprise us.
【1】What can we learn from the studies mentioned in the passage?
A.Thinking back to the past weakens our sense of meaning.
B.Enjoying small things can influence our attitude toward life.
C.Proper stress management is the key to living a satisfying life.
D.Good judgment on beauty improves connections among people.
【2】What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?
A.It is easier for results-driven people to achieve success.
B.We often turn a blind eye to the present moment.
C.A fast-paced lifestyle helps us reach our goals.
D.Future life will bring us many more surprises.
【3】What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To explain how to discover beauty in life.
B.To discuss what the true meaning of life is.
C.To introduce a new factor for a meaningful life.
D.To compare different factors for meaningfulness.
28、Once upon a time, some children 【1】 (fish) at seaside when they caught a turtle. They beat it with stones. Just at that time, a young man came up and 【2】 (drive)them away. The turtle was very thankful and said, “Thanks for your kindness. I would like ____【3】_____ (invite) you to a fantastic place.”
The young man rode on the turtle’s back and was taken to a secret place in the sea. When they reached the place, he was amazed at the sightseeing, “what a nice palace!” To thank him , the king of the turtles gave him a very big dinner __【4】_____(eat). He hadn’t eaten so much delicious food before. He was pleased with everything.
After the dinner, the king said, “I’m going to give you two boxes, but you mustn’t open both. Do remember it!” The young man promised that he 【5】 (open) only one. Just then, a large wave sent him out of the sea.
After 【6】(go)back home , he opened the bigger box. To his surprise, the box was full of gold shining brightly. “My God! I am rich now!” Then he thought, “There must be something more expensive in the other box.” He broke his promise and opened it. Suddenly he became an old man who was over 80 years old. He was so sorry for what he did, but it was too late.
