    Life is difficult.
    It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult.
    Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent(代表) a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, or even their nation.
    What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause in us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.
    Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning.
    Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of the human spirit, we encourage the human ability(能力) to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt, instruct.” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.
    56. From the passage, it can be inferred that ______.
    A. everybody has problems          
    B. we become stronger by facing and solving the problems of life
    C. life is difficult because our problems bring us pain
    D. people like to complain about their problems
    57.The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to ______.
    A. save space                B. persuade readers 
    C. make readers laugh         D. get reader's attention
    58. The main idea of paragraph 3 is that ______.
    A. most people feel life is easy     
    B. the writer feels life is easy
    C. the writer likes to complain about his problems
    D. most people complain about how hard their lives are
    59. According to the passage, we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to ______.
    A. encourage them to learn  
    B. teach them to fear the pain of solving problems
    C. help them learn to deal with pain
    D. teach them how to respect for problems
    56.B;57.D;58.D;59.A。      
    56.推理判断题。从文章最后一段内容特别是It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn.一句得知，人们通过迎接并解决生活中的困难而变的更加坚强。
    57.常识可知作者写本句的目的是吸引读者注意力。为表达自己的观点奠定基础。
    58. 阐明一些人对待困难的态度。
    59 学生通过解决问题可以增长知识和能力，生活中的问题有着相同的意义。见最后一段第二句。

        If you feel at present that you don’t have enough friends in your life，one reason may be that you have let yourself become too busy to make time for the relationships you already have．Starting and keeping friendship requires effort and commitment．
    Many of us let our lives become so busy with work and other commitments that we don’t get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal（叙旧）with the friends，relatives and acquaintances we already have．
    Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to accept more of the invitations you receive from others can improve your social life in a hurry!
    Are there any people you could call right now and be assured of a pleasant welcome? Are there people that you could count on to help you in time of difficulty? Can you have close talks with them? Do you have fun when you are together? Are you happy to have them in your life?
    If you haven’t seen much of them lately。is it because you have become too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?
    If the main reason you haven’t been getting together with the people you already know is that you have gotten too busy，take a good look at how you spend your time．Compare it with your real values and priorities（优先考虑的事）in life．Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want?   
    If you have become too busy for friends，why has this happened? Are you seeking material toys in your life at the expense of relationships with other human beings? Have you allowed your time to be over．committed because you never say“No”to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be delegated to others? If so，why? Do you believe that everything depends on you?
    Examine whether the way you are now spending your time accurately reflects your deepest values and priorities．Make sure that you schedule enough time for the things that are truly most important to you．
    If you really want to keep friends in your lire，make a space in your schedule，and a space in your heart for them．

    　　Like most people, I’ve long understood that I’ll be judged by my occupation, that my profession is used by people to see how talented I am. Recently, however, I was disappointed to see that it also decides how I’m treated as a person.
    　　Last year I left a professional position as a small-town reporter and took a job waiting tables. As someone paid to serve food to people, I had customers say and do things to me I suppose they’d never say or do to the people they know. One night a man talking on his cell phone waved me away, then called me back with his finger a minute later, saying angrily that he was ready to order and asking where I’d been.
    　　I had waited tables during summers in college and was treated like a peon（勤杂工） by plenty of people. But at 19 years old, I believed I deserved inferior（低等的）treatment from professional adults. Besides, people responded to me differently after I told them I was in college. Customers would joke that one day I’d be sitting at their table, waiting to be served.
    　　Once I graduated I took a job at a community newspaper. From my first day, I heard a respectful tone from everyone who called me. I assumed this was the way the professional world worked--- politely and formally.
    　　I soon found out differently. I sat several feet away from a person in advertising department with a similar name. Our calls would often get mixed up and someone asking for Kristen would be transferred to Christie. The mistake was immediately clear. Perhaps it was because of money, but people used a tone with Kristen that they never used with me.
    　　It’s no secret that there’s a lot to put up with when waiting tables, and fortunately, much of it can be easily forgotten when you pocket the tips. The service industry exists to meet others’ needs. Still, it seemed that many of my customers didn’t get the difference between server and servant.
    　　I’m now applying to graduate school, which means someday I’ll return to a profession where people need to be nice to me in order to get what they want. I think I’ll take them to dinner first, and see how they treat someone whose job is to serve them.
    　　68. What makes the author disappointed?
    　　A. Professionals tend to look down upon workers.
    　　B. Talented people have to do the job waiting tables.
    　　C. One’s position is used to measure one’s intelligence.
    　　D. Occupation affects the way one is treated as a person.
    　　69. What does the author intend to say by the example in Paragraph 2?
    　　A. Waiting tables is a hard job.
    　　B. Some customers are difficult to deal with.
    　　C. The man making a phone call is absent-minded.
    　　D. Some customers show no respect to those who serve them.
    　　70. How did the author feel when waiting tables at the age of 19?
    　　A. She felt it unfair to be treated as a servant.
    　　B. She found it natural for professionals to treat her as inferior.
    　　C. She was embarrassed each time her customers joked with her.
    　　D. She felt badly hurt when her customers regarded her as a peon.
    　　71. The author says one day she’ll take her customers to dinner in order to _______.
    　　A. see what kind of person they are
    　　B. experience the feeling of being served
    　　C. share her working experience with her customers
    　　D. help them realize the difference between server and servant

    Kincaid looked at his watch: eight-seventeen. The truck started on the second try, and he backed out, shifted gears, and moved slowly down the alley under hazy sun. Through the streets of Bellingham he went, heading south on Washington 11, running along the coast of Puget Sound for a few miles, then following the highway as it swung east a little before meeting U.S Route 20.
    Turning into the sun, he began the long, winding drive through the Cascades. He liked this country and felt unpressed stopping now and then to make notes about interesting possibilities for future expeditions or to shoot what he called “memory snapshots.” The purpose of these causal photographs was to remind him of places he might want to visit again and approach more seriously. In later afternoon he turned north at Spokane, picking up U.S. Route 2, which would take him halfway across the northern United States to Duluth, Minnesota.
    He wished for the thousandth time in his life that he had a dog ,a golden retriever, maybe ,for travels like this and to keep him company at home. But he was frequently away; overseas much of the time and it would not be fair to the animal .Still ,he thought about it anyway. In a few years he would be getting too old for the hard fieldwork. “I must get a dog then.” He said to himself.
    Drives like this always put him into a sentimental mood. The dog was part of it .Robert Kincaid was alone as it’s possible to be—an only child ,parents both dead , distant relatives who had lost track of him and he of them, no close friends.
    He thought about Marian .She had left him nine years ago after five years of marriage. He was fifty-two now , that would make her just under forty .Marian had dreams of becoming a musician ,a folksinger .She knew all of the Weavers’ songs and sang them pretty well in the coffeehouse of Seattle .When he was home in the old days, he drove her to the shows and sat in the audience while she sang.
    His long absences—two or three months sometimes—were hard on the marriage .He knew that. She was aware of what he did when they decided to get married ,and both of them had a vague(not clear) sense that it could all be handled somehow. It couldn’t when he came from photographing a story in Iceland and ,she was gone . The note read, “Robert ,it didn’t work out ,I left you the Harmony guitar. Stay in touch.”
    He didn’t stay in touch .Neither did she .He3 signed the divorce papers when they arrived a year later and caught a plane for Australia the next day. She had asked for nothing except her freedom.
    51. Which route is the right one taken by Kincaid?
    A. Bellingham— Washington 11—Puget Sound—U.S Route 20—U.S Route 2—Duluth
    B. U.S. Route 2—Bellingham—Washington 11—Puget Sound—U.S Route 20—Duluth
    C. U.S. Route 2—U.S Route 20—Duluth –Bellingham—Washington 11
    D. Bellingham— Washington 11—U.S. Route 2—U.S Route 20—Duluth
    52. Which statement is true according to the passage?
    A. Kincaid’s parents were dead and he only kept in touch with some distant relatives.
    B. Kincaid would have had a dog if he hadn’t been away from home too much.
    C. Kincaid used to have a golden retriever.
    D. Kincaid needed a dog in doing his hard fieldwork.
    53. Why did Kincaid stop to take photos while driving?
    A. To write “memory snapshots”
    B. To remind himself of places he might want to visit again.
    C. To avoid forgetting the way back.
    D. To shoot beautiful scenery along the road.
    54. What can you know about Marian?
    A. She died after five years of marriage.
    B. She was older than Kincaid.
    C. She could sing very well and earned big money.
    D. She was not a professional pop singer.
    55. We can draw a conclusion from the passage that         .
    A. Marian knew what would happen before she married Kincaid.
    B. Kincaid thought his absence would be a problem when he married Marian.
    C. It turned out that Marian could not stand Kincaid’s absence and left him.
    D. After Marian left him, they still kept in touch with each other.
