The bridge, which _________ 1688, needs repairing.

A. is dated from     B. was dated from  C. dates from  D. dated from

C


解析:

因为 date from 的意思是“自某时起存在至今”(=have existed since),它通常用于一般现在时,而不用过去时态(尽管其后接的总是表示过去的时间)。

但若所谈论的东西现在已不复存在,则可用一般过去时。如:

The church, which dated from the 13th century, was destroyed in an earthquake two years ago.  那座教堂是13世纪建成的,两年前在一次地震中被毁了。

Last Friday my brother and I were driving home together after doing some shopping and gave our attention to an interesting conversation. Because of this distraction (分心)my brother took a wrong turn.
Unfortunately, the wrong turn took us towards a bridge and we had no way to turn back. Unwillingly, my brother paid the bridge fee and drove on. He was clearly frustrated by the mistake and the needless waste of $4.
We eventually reached an exit and, as we took it, my brother noticed a young fellow pulled over to the side of the road. He came out of his car and tried to phone someone. I was busy trying to figure out which way we would go next but my brother pulled over and asked the guy if he needed any help. And he did. He had a flat tire and needed a tool to get it off.
My brother gave him a wrench, and then began to help him change the flat. The young man said that this had been a bad week for him: earlier he had gotten into a minor car accident, and now this flat on his way home from work. But he called us “a breath of fresh air” and kept thanking us because he really would have been stuck if we hadn’t come along.
After we finished the job he thanked us again and pulled out $20 from his pocket and tried to give it to us. “No,” I said. “We were never supposed to even get on that bridge,we took a wrong turn. But now we know why we did. It was to help you. Thank you for turning our mistake into an opportunity to serve.” 
What I loved most was that my brother was able to see a chance to help. His reaction in the situation is a lesson for everyone and we felt so good the rest of the day.

A.didn’t know the roads well

A.He had been in the hot sun waiting for help for so long.
B.His car’s air conditioner was broken.
C.They calmed him down by offering him a cold drink.
D.They changed his bad luck and the bad mood he was in.

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and would rather follow than lead.

Colors do influence our moods (情绪). A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(令人压抑的). There was a black bridge over the Thames River, near London. The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge in the area -- until it was repainted green.

Light and bright colors make people not only happier but also more active. In the factory, the workers will work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black.

1.An active person may like ____   

A.yellow, orange, or red

B.yellow, black, or red

C.orange, blue, or black

D.black, red, or orange

2.Most people feel more __ in a yellow room than in a dark green one.

A.tired

B.bored

C.worried

D.relaxed

3.More people killed themselves on the black bridge than on any other bridge probably because ____

A.the bridge was very tall

B.the bridge was too crowded

C.people didn't like the bridge

D.the color of the bridge was depressing

4.In the factory, when the machines are painted orange, the workers will work __

A.worse

B.harder

C.more slowly

D.more angrily
