    6．Mrs Bennet，Pride and Prejudice
    Jane Austen described Mrs Bennet as"a woman of mean understanding，little information，and uncertain temper（脾气）"：she topped your list of the least favorite female family heads．With her single-minded devotion to marrying off her daughters，she is one of literature's parents involving themselves in their sons'or daughters'private lives．And at least she pays attention to her daughters．Whatever one might lay at her daughters'door，she defends them．
    Helen Graham，The Tenant of Wildfell Hall
    The second and final novel by Anne Bront was so shocking that after Anne's death，her sister Charlotte prevented its re-publication．Published for the first time in 1848，it told the story of a woman who escapes her alcoholic husband to protect her young son．In fleeing her husband，Helen was not just challenging social structures，she was breaking the law：at the time，a married woman had no independent legal existence，and by taking her child with her she was likely to be punished for kidnapping（诱拐）．Helen's actions didn't just establish her as a good mother； they helped to cause a movement．
    Marilla Cuthbert，Anne of Green Gables
    The adoptive mother of orphan Anne makes herself known as a softy through the course of the 1908novel：so much so that Margaret Attwood has claimed that Marilla is the true central character："Her growing love for Anne，and her growing ability to express that love-not Anne's duckling-to-swan act-is the real magic transformation．Anne is the catalyst（催化剂） who allows the strict Marilla to finally express her long-buried softer human emotions．"
    Mrs Waterbury，The Railway Children
    The Railway Children's female family head is"a very real mother，strong but also easily hurt．"Presenting an idealized（理想化） vision of childhood，yet the novel contains a tension between appearance and reality-which some have said reflects its author E Nesbit's personal life．Her husband had an ongoing affair with her best friend，who bore him two children that Nesbit raised as her own．Jenny Agutter has said："Nesbit's life was always unstable．What saved her was her belief that things would work out in the end …Against the background of her own tense and complex family life，she wrote stories about families that were joined perfectly together．"

    65．The passage mainly discussesB in literature．
    A．families             
    B．mothers
    C．emotional life                           
    D．parent-child communication
    66．Which of the following is TRUE about the four characters in the novels mentioned in the passage？A
    A．Mrs Bennet is a most controlling person．
    B．Helen Graham is a person to give up easily．
    C．Marilla Cuthbert is hard to get along with．
    D．Mrs Waterbury is poor at holding together a family
    67．According to the writers mentioned in the passage，we can infer thatC．
    A．Jane Austen was good at writing detective stories
    B．Anne Bront wrote three novels altogether all her life
    C．E Nesbit was looking forward to having one harmonious family
    D．Margaret Attwood was very popular with readers of the early 20th century
    68．Which of the following can we recommend if anyone wants to read a novel about the sweetest expression of family love．C
    A．Pride and Prejudice．
    B．The Railway Children．
    C．Anne of Green Gables．
    D．The Tenant of Wildfell Hall．

    分析 本文介绍了Pride and Prejudice，The Tenant of Wildfell Hall，Anne of Green Gables，The Railway Children四本不同的文学作品中四位遭遇不同的母亲，并介绍了这四位母亲的事迹．

    解答 65．B．细节理解题．通过仔细阅读全文，易知四部文学作品中讲的是四位母亲．故选B
    66．A．推理判断题．此题可以使用排除法．根据文中"it told the story of a woman who escapes her alcoholic husband to protect her young son．"可知她是一位意志坚定的母亲，而非容易放弃，故B错；根据文中内容，无法推知Marilla Cuthbert是个难以相处的人，属于无中生有，故C错；同理D错．故选A．
    67．C．细节理解题．文章最后一段中讲"some have said reflects its author E Nesbit's personal life．"，是反映作者Nesbit的个人生活，可以看出作者希望一个和谐的家庭．故选C．
    68．C．仔细阅读全文可知Anne of Green Gables是唯一一本关于家庭爱情的最甜蜜的表达的书．故选C．

    点评 本文是考察学生文学作品类阅读理解，这类文章常涉及文章节选，文章品读等等．这类材料的命题重点往往落在主旨大意，以及细节上．

    19．Kong Zi，also called Confucius （551-479 B．C），and Socrates （469-399 B．C） lived only a hundred years apart，and during their lifetimes there was no contact between China and Greece，but it is interesting to look at how the world that each of these great philosophers came from shaped their ideas，and how these ideas in turn，shaped their societies．
    Neither philosopher lived in times of peace，though there were more wars in Greece than in China．The Chinese states were very large and feudal，while the Greek city-states were small and urban．The urban environment in which Socrates lived allowed him to be more radical than Confucius．Unlike Confucius，Socrates was not asked by rules how to govern effectively．Thus，Socrates was able to be more idealistic，focusing on issues like freedom，and knowledge for its own sake．Confucius，on the other hand，advised those in government service，and many of his students went out to government service．
    Confucius suggested the Golden Rule as a principle for the conduct of life："Do not do to others what you would not want others to do to you．"He assumed that all men were equal at birth，though some had more potential than others，and that it was knowledge that set men apart．Socrates focused on the individual，and thought that the greatest purpose of man was to seek wisdom．He believed that the superior class should rule the inferior（下层的）classes．
    For Socrates，the family was of no importance，and the community of little concern．For Confucius，however，the family was the centre of the society，with family relations considered much more important than political relations．
    Both men are respected much more today than they were in their lifetimes．
    32．Which of the following is TURE according to the first paragraph？C
    A．Socrates and Confucius had much in common，
    B．Confucius had much influence on Socrates'ideas．
    C．The societies were influenced by the philosophers'ideas．
    D．There were cultural exchanges between China and Greece．
    33．Socrates shared with Confucius the idea that．B
    A．all men were equal when they were born
    B．the lower classed should be ruled by the upper class
    C．the purpose of man was to seek freedom and wisdom
    D．people should not ask others to do what they did not want to
    34．What made some people different from others according to Confucius？C
    A．Family．
    B．Potential．
    C．Knowledge．
    D．Community．
    35．This passage is organized in the pattern of，B
    A．time and events

    1．The reason I wanted to see So Young is that it's Zhao Wei's directorial debut（处女秀）．I guess I didn't expect much else．
    So Young has everything a popular youth film should have：Beautiful young actors，a story about colorful campus life and involved romance，and a strong sense of longing for something past．
    The leading female character Zheng Wei （Yang Zishan） enrolls at university to stay close to her childhood sweetheart Lin Jing （Han Geng）．But when Lin moves abroad to pursue his education，life loses its shine for Zheng．Until she meets the dynamic yet cool Chen Xiaozheng （Mark Chao）．
    The film also features a bunch of vivid supporting characters：The school beauty who falls in love with a worthless unimportant person，the rich kid who is rejected by his dream girl，and Zheng's boyish roommate with a huge ego（自我）．
    Together they put on quite a show under Zhao's direction and her smooth and aesthetic camera work．You'll find yourself laughing over their trivial yet funny life on campus in the early 1990s．As expected，the film's second half takes the audience to years later when the characters have moved on into different corners of society．But the film unexpectedly doesn't focus on the comedic vibe and turns into a serious discussion about the meaning of life and love．Through the events in their current life and flashbacks of their college years，the film describes how life has changed these characters．And that's where the film goes wrong．
    The emotional change of the characters seems overhasty，If you watch the 2011youth film You're the Apple of My Eye，you'll find that the film's resonance（共鸣）with the audience accumulates from the beginning-through details like sexual fantasies and so on-and peaks in the end．In So Young，the sudden emotional touch with endless splendid lines just isn't enough to strike our hearts．
    Zhao also clearly wanted to give every character a proper ending．But unfortunately she tried a bit too hard，making the film's second half feel lengthy and unedited．
    Even so，given my reasonably low expectations，Zhao still gets full credits for her effort as a first-time director．Without her insightful input and observations，I think the film would have been worse．
    Just as time wrinkles the skin but enriches the soul，an ordinary film may as well be the best motivation for Zhao to make better ones in the future．

    41．Which of the following is correct according to this passage？D
    A．This film has everything a popular fiction film should have．
    B．The leading female character goes to college to have a bright future．
    C．The school beauty who falls in love with a boy with a huge ego．
    D．A bunch of vivid supporting characters make the film more colorful．
    42．That the film goes wrong mainly becauseC．
    A．the film involves the characters'trivial yet funny life on campus．
    B．the film describes the characters'current life and flashbacks of their college years
    C．the film doesn't focus on the comedic vibe but turns into a serious discussion about the meaning of life and love
    D．the film describes how life has changed these characters
    43．The word"overhasty"in paragraph 6 is closest in meaning toC．
    A．surprising        
    B．obvious           
    C．hurried         
    D．complicated
    44．Zhao still gets full credits for her effort as a first-time director，becauseD．
    A．the film would have been worse
    B．she made the film's second half feel lengthy and unedited．
    C．she had insightful input and observations．
    D．the author didn't give high expectations to this film
    45．The attitude of the author towards this film isB．
    A．appreciative         
    B．objective          
    C．critical            
    D．doubtful．

    18．He is one of the most charming young heroes since Harry Potter．Like Potter，he is chosen to carry out a mission-busy preparing to lead to save the Earth during the upcoming war，but unlike Potter，he doesn't get any chances to have fun or hang out with friends．
    He is Ender Wiggin，15，the main character of the hit US sci-fi movie Ender's Games，which came out on Jan.7，2014 in china．
    The story opens in 2086，50 years after an insect-like alien race，called the Formics，attacked the Earth and killed tens of millions of people before being driven back to their home planet．Since then，human beings have been in a state of fear，awaiting a second attack．

    3．请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词．
    注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上．每个空格只填一个单词．
    When Should a Leader Apologize and When Not？
    Why Difficult？
    When we wrong someone we know，even not intentionally，we are generally expected to apologize so as to improve the situation．But when we're acting as leaders，the circumstances are different．The act of apology is carried out not merely at the level of the individual but also at the level of the institution．It is a performance in which every expression matters and every word becomes part of the public record．Refusing to apologize can be smart，or it can be stupid．So，readiness to apologize can be seen as a sign of strong character or as a sign of weakness．A successful apology can turn hate into personal and organizational harmony-while an apology that is too little，too late，or too obviously strategic can bring on individual and institutional ruin．What，then，is to be done？How can leaders decide if and when to apologize publicly？
    Why Now？
    The question of whether leaders should apologize publicly has never been more urgent．During the last decade or so，the United States in particular has developed an apology culture-apologies of all kinds and for all sorts of wrongdoings are made far more frequently than before．More newspaper writers have written about the growing importance of public apologies．More articles，cartoons，advice columns，and radio and television programs have similarly dealt with the subject of private apologies．
    Why Bother？
    Why do we apologize？Why do we ever put ourselves in situations likely to be difficult，embarrassing，and even risky？Leaders who apologize publicly could be an easy target．They are expected to appear strong and capable．And whenever they make public statements of any kind，their individual and institutional reputations are in danger．Clearly，then，leaders should not apologize often or lightly．For a leader to express apology，there needs to be a good，strong reason．Leaders will publicly apologize if and when they think the costs of doing so are lower than the costs of not doing so．
    Why Refuse？
    Why is it that leaders so often refuse to apologize，even when a public apology seems to be in order？Their reasons can be individual or institutional．Because leaders are public figures，their apologies are likely to be personally uncomfortable and even professionally risky．Leaders may also be afraid that admission of a mistake will damage or destroy the organization for which they are responsible．There can be good reasons for hanging tough in tough situations，as we shall see，but it is a high-risk strategy．
