    Pressure too much?
    In our daily life we are used to hearing these words, “I can't wait for my holiday,” “I wish I could stay home today” And “I'm very tired.” These words come from pressure at work. Now the “iron rice bowl”(铁饭碗) is being broken into pieces. Workers may be fired if they don’t perform their duties well. They have to do their jobs better.
    People feel pressure not only because they might find themselves out of work but also because they get no real pleasure from their work. For most of the workers, work is just a way of earning money. It appears to be meaningless and worthless.
    But pressure is a natural part of work. There is no way to keep away from it. We should face up to it.
    Work should be a cause of happiness and pride rather than a punishment or a burden .In fact, a certain amount of pressure can provide challenge and chance for learning. To a modern man who is worried and low in spirit, developing a hobby and finding a new interest is of first importance. I like listening to pop music, which makes me calm and gives me pleasure.
    If pressure becomes difficult to deal with, we should turn to our friends or families. We can have a drink with our friends and talk about the problem. We should always discuss our problems with our families. Good advice, warmth and happiness that families bring to us can reduce our pressure and encourage us to smooth away all difficulties.
    小题1:Peopel feel pressure at work mainly because ______.
    A．they will lose their jobs
    B．most of them find less interest in their work
    C．they can make more money after work.
    D．they want to stay at home.
    小题2:Which of the following is WRONG in the writer’s opinion?
    A．Where there is work there is pressure.
    B．Work shouldn’t be regarded as punishment or burden.
    C．All modern men are worried and low in spirit.
    D．A certain amount of pressure is necessary.
    小题3:From the text we can know that when pressure is too big, ________.
    A．we should drink coffee with our friends
    B．we can get help and comfort from our friends or families.
    C．we can go home because it is warm
    D．to talk out the problem to our friends and families is the best way.

    It was Christmas 1961. I was teaching in a small town where my twenty-seven third graders eagerly   36  the great day of gift-giving in advance.
    Each day the children produced some new   37  — strings of popcorn, handmade trinkets, and German bell. Through it all she remained alone,   38   from a distance, seemingly miles away. I wondered what   39  happen to this quiet child, once so happy, now suddenly so withdrawn. I hoped the festivities would   40  her. But nothing did. The students made the fried marbles（油炸玻璃弹子）and competed with one anther to bring the   41  ones.
    The day of gift-giving finally came. We cheered over our handiwork as the presents were   42 . All along, she sat quietly watching. To see her smile, I had made a special bag for her. She opened it so slowly and carefully. I waited but she   43 . I had not passed through the wall of isolation she had   44  around herself.
    After school I sat down in a chair, hardly   45  of what was happening, when she came to me with outstretched hands, bearing a small white box, and slightly soiled,   46  it had been held many times by   47 , childish hands. She said nothing. “For me?” I asked. She said not a word, but   48  her head. I took the box and cautiously opened it. There inside, glistening green, a fried marble   49  from a golden chain. Then I looked into that eight-year-old   50  and saw the question in her dark brown eyes. In a flash I knew — she had   51  it for her mother, who had died just three weeks before and would never hold her or brush her hair or   52  her childish joys or sorrows.
    I meant it when I whispered, “Oh, Maria, it is so beautiful. Your mother would   53  it.” Neither of us could stop the   54 . She threw herself into my arms and we wept together. And for that brief moment I became her mother, for she had given me the greatest   55  of all: her trust and love.

    I dreamed I had an interview with God.

    I keep hammering this because I keep seeing people who don’t do it.
    1. Look up English to Elvish.
    2. Look up the Elvish word in the best Elvish dictionary you have, and, preferably, find out the context（上下文） in Tolkien’s language dictionary.
    3. Change the word to suit rules of grammar: singular or plural, mutations, verb tenses, etc.
    You cannot leave out any of these steps. If you do, you’re almost certain to have errors. Why you have to do step 2:
    Languages never match up one- to-one. English and Elvish are closer than usual, but there are still problems. And English has strange idioms: why are there no baths or beds in public bathrooms or restrooms? You can’t translate literally（逐字地）. You have to understand the meaning behind each word.
    In Elvish this is even more true, since our dictionaries contain more or less questionable reconstructions, and words that Tolkien later threw away or replaced. Find the best one you can.
    Consider the word “fair”. We tend to use it to mean “just”. Tolkien tends to use it to mean “beautiful”. In Elvish, these are two entirely different words. So when you look up “fair”, you’ll have to go to the Elvish dictionary to see that you’ve got the right one.
    Consider the nightmare（噩梦）of He left the bar. Is “left” the opposite of “right” （which also has two meanings） ? Is “bar” extruded steel（型材钢）, or something to do with law? You have to know what words mean in both languages.
    And you’d be amazed at how many people ignore step 3, forgetting that language is more than a string of words, and there are rules about how to fit those words together. You can’t simply look up the word “I” and use it everywhere. Sometimes you need “me” or “my”. There’s a reason it takes a while to learn a language: you have to learn the rules.
    It drives me completely mad when people give a questionable translation they insist is right because “it’s in the dictionary”. A dictionary is a tool, a resource. but its entries（词目）should not be mistaken for a finished product. They are raw materials.
    小题1:The underlined word “this” in paragraph 1 refers to         .
    A．consulting the dictionaries when translating between languages
    B．finding out the true meaning in context
    C．ignoring the rules of grammar
    D．leaving out some of the three steps the author mentions
    小题2: According to the author, you have to do step 2 because         .
    A．you have to understand the meaning behind each word
    B．Elvish and English are quite different in forms
    C．there are no baths or beds in public bathrooms
    D．Elvish has some words which are hard to find
    小题3:Grammar is also very important because it         .
    A．helps fit the words together
    B．takes a while to learn a language
    C．is a rule to obey
    D．is often forgotten in translating
    小题4:In the last paragraph, the author shows         .
    A．his impatience to those who insist their wrong translation is right
    B．his puzzle to the questionable translation
    C．the importance of the correct use of dictionaries
    D．the mistaken entries in the dictionaries
    小题5: The passage is mainly about how to         .
    A．learn a foreign language with a dictionary
    B．avoid errors when looking up a dictionary
    C．understand the meaning of a strange word
    D．use a dictionary to translate between languages

    Jascha Richter once sang “don't need too much talking without saying anything” to reveal his lonely feeling in a crowd.
    Dad always told me never to ever reveal my true opinions towards other people if such opinions are negative. He said this is the “Chu Shi Zhe Xue”, the philosophy of dealing with social network.
    It seems that everybody here just follows this philosophy very, very well.
    Friends. I would say that if I were given true friendship I would definitely treasure it with my greatest care. If I really regard someone as my close friend, I would never leave her alone whenever she's in need, either financially or mentally. And I always believe, as long as I treat people with whole-hearted honesty, I would have some rewards—at least, just ONE true friend of the same gender（性别）.
    Sometimes I just miss my friends in China. Perhaps when we became friends, we were still young, too young to have been polluted by any dirt in the society. But here, it is simply different. It seems that all of us have learnt how to SURVIVE in a foreign land and such an experience actually makes us learn how to extract (榨取) the most benefits from the surroundings in order to survive.
    All are friends around me. I've looked through all the dark sides of their personalities and yet I have to pretend that I know nothing. THEY ARE GOOD. THEY ARE GOOD. AND WE ARE FRIENDS. And then I can make myself comfortable enough to talk to people I hate the most. And of course, they don't say any words truly from their hearts. Neither do I.
    But, sometimes I just feel unwilling to talk to these people. Sometimes, I just want to be alone, quietly, without being forced to listen to their gossip or other useless words.
    “Standing on a mountain high
    Looking at the moon through a clear blue sky
    I should go and see some friends         
    But they don't really comprehend”
    Jascha Richter expresses my feelings also.
    67. 小题1:What do we know about the writer’s father according to this passage?
    A．He is really a good philosopher.
    B．He possibly gets on well with others.
    C．He told the writer to reveal her true opinions.
    D．The passage doesn’t tell us at all.
    68. 小题2:What’s the most probable reason the writer mentions Jascha Richter’s song twice in the passage?
    A．She likes Jascha Richter’s song.
    B．Jascha Richter is one of her friends.
    C．The song expresses her feelings.
    D．She uses it to perfects her article.
    69. 小题3:Which of the following statements about the writer is TRUE?
    A．She is now living abroad but doesn’t enjoy the life there.
    B．She absolutely believes in her father’s philosophy.
    C．She shows a positive attitude towards her relationship with others.
    D．She thinks highly of her friends by repeating “They are good”.

    As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it’s not easy to change later in life. Financial experts say that everyone also has his own belief of how to manage his money. According to our different values, experts put us in three catagories---the ant, the cricket(蟋蟀) and the snail.
    ★ The ant — work first
    Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don't care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save, but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk.
    ★ The cricket — fun first
    The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance.
    ★ The snail — life under pressure
    The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans(贷款) from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure they can afford them. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.
    小题1: One’s values may________.
    A．be his ways of managing money
    B．be his beliefs about society
    C．be connected with his education
    D．influence his behavior
    小题2: Mr. Smith always enjoys spending a weekend with his friends, fishing, hunting and playing cards. Besides, he spends money in a very luxurious way. So_______.
    A．Mr. Smith belongs to the ant type
    B．Mr. Smith belongs to the cricket type
    C．Mr. Smith belongs to the snail type
    D．it’s hard to tell which kind of person Mr. Smith is
    小题3:The writer of the passage intends _______.
    A．to introduce to us the three types of people with different life style
    B．to show us his special attitude to the different people
    C．to tell us life is full of joy and happiness all the time
    D．to warn us how to live a better life in a new way
    小题4:According to the passage, the most suitable title would be _______.
    A．Nature of Spending
    B．What Comes First
    C．How to Understand Your Belief
    D．Work and Fun

    第二部分：阅读理解（第一节20小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分）
    第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
    The other day, I bought six packages of ink for my printer, then I found a deal on better ink at the local computer store, so I went back to the $1 Store to exchange the ink for some other items.
    I put the ink into a plastic bag and tied it up. When at the store, I immediately showed the bag to a clerk and told her that I was returning some items, but she was obviously very busy. Then without thinking much, I just put the bag into a cart and started shopping.
    I was making my way through the crowd when a female employee suddenly yelled to stop me. I was told not to be allowed to carry a plastic bag of items around in the store and my bag should be checked.
    I was astonished. There was no need for her to yell. I opened the bag and showed her the receipt. “I’m returning these to exchange for some other items,” I said.
    “You should learn how to follow store regulations. Leave this bag here with the clerk. You can have it back when you check out”.
    I was embarrassed and did as told to. I felt like a shoplifter. By the time I had finished shopping and exchanged the items, I was angry and then went looking for her. I wanted an apology. I found her finally and asked what her name was. She yelled at me again, “Ursula!” and stormed away.
    Having got home, I called the store’s headquarters. I described my unpleasant experience. A customer service representative responded, “We will not tolerate such behavior. Give me your phone number and I will call you back.”
    Two days later, I received a phone call from the representative, “I’m sorry,” she said, “but there is no one at that store named Ursula. Can you describe her? I’ll find out who she is. We do not tolerate rude behavior, nor do we tolerate lying to customers.”
    By this time, I had calmed down, so I told the representative to forget about it.
    41.The author wanted to exchange the ink for some other items because he found _______.
    the ink was too expensive                   
    he didn’t need so many packages
    it could not match his printer

    42.It can be inferred that _______.
    the $1 Store had a very good business
    the $1 Store sold items of poor quality
    the clerks in the $1 Store were impolite
    check-out items couldn’t be exchanged
    43. Which of the following is the right order according to the story?
    I found I was cheated.
    I left the plastic bag with the clerk.
    I finished shopping and exchanged the items
    A female employee stopped me and yelled at me
    I called the store’s headquarters
    A. d, a, c, b, e    B. b, c, d, e, a        C. d, b, c, e, a     D. c, b, d, a, e
