    　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　B
    Tony Bennett, the American singer recently touring Britain, can't remember how many times he has sung his standard hit "I Left My Heart in San Francisco". He sang it again to his audience at the London Palladium last night.
    "I never get tired of singing it," he said, "I like it very much. It's a great city and it's a good song."
    Bennett is to record a TV special with the American singer Lena Horne while he is here. And a new LP recorded by him in London for Philips titled "Listen Easy" will be published in June.
    "I like it here," he added quietly over whiskey. "I would like to live here so many months of the year."
    He already keeps a large flat in Grosvenor Square, where he is staying with his actress wife Sandie Grant and their three-year-old daughter Joanna. It has a studio where he likes to paint. Tony plans to have his first exhibition later in the year and he has already sold one picture for $4,000. At the end of the year Tony is to star in a musical film which has been specially written for him called "Two Bits", an informal expression for 50 cents. It's about an Italian immigrant(移民) who goes to America, but he becomes a failure.
    "In many ways it's very close to my life the way the story has been written," said Bennett. "My father, an Italian, was ill and died when I was nine. He always wanted me to sing, but he never lived long enough to be a part of my success."
    The film is to be made by Italy's top director Vittoria De Sica.
    60. The underlined phrase "standard hit" in the first paragraph most probably means "_____".
    A. Bennett's favorite song that's not very popular
    B. a song that is always popular
    C. a song which is like a heavy blow to his audience
    D. a song which makes him standard
    61. According to the text, which of the following is NOT true?
    A. "Two Bits" is a musical film.
    B. Tony is to star in a film.
    C. "Listen Easy" is a new record by Bennett.
    D. "Listen Easy" has been published.
    62. What does Tony Bennett want to do?
    A. Buy a house and live in England.
    B. Stay with his wife and daughter in England.
    C. Live part of each year in England.
    D. Leave America and settle in England.
    63. What can we learn about Tony Bennett's father from this text?
    A. He liked his son's singing.
    B. He was born in Italy and died in America.
    C. He was a part of Bennett's achievement.
    D. He was glad that his son became famous.
    BDCB

    60. B。猜测词义题。根据下文He sang it again...以及I never get tired of singing it和It's a good song可推知其意为“总是受欢迎的歌曲”。
    61. D。细节理解题。从第三段第二句可知。
    62. C。推理判断题。根据第四段I would like to live here so many months of the year. 一句可知。
    63. B。推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句及第六段可推知其父亲为意大利迁居美国的移民，在美国去世，因此选B。

    What is freedom? It seems like such a simple question. Freedom is being able to do what you want to do. Allow me to explain it.
    I’m tired of working for a living. I’d rather collect taxes. So that’s what I’m going to do: collect a kind of tax. You are ordered to estimate your income from the past 12 months, and write me a check for 1%. I have provided a mailing address for this purpose on my contact page …
    What? You have a problem with my plan? Oh, I see. If you have to send me a check for the tax, then I have hurt your freedom to spend that money as you see fit. We have a conflict! And our basic problem is: we cannot enjoy freedom at the same time; we must settle for a limit. But what limit?
    Libertarians (自由论者) believe freedom should be based on self-control. They describe freedom as being able to do what you want to do as long as it doesn’t influence the equal right of others to do what they want to do. That is, freedom is being able to do what you like as long as you do not harm another person’s life, liberty or property.
    You can build a set of legal and ethical (道德的) rules on the principle of self-control, and libertarians do. Their request for self-control often becomes more important than common sense, or even freedom itself.
    The definition rules out the freedom to steal, murder, and so on. Otherwise, you can do whatever you want. There is no problem until you realize that taxation is theft, that war is murder, and that national service is a form of slavery. Since only the government has a legal right to use force, libertarians focus on making the government smaller, or even going without it. The libertarians’ definition of freedom is thus freedom from the government. Isn’t it ridiculous?
    小题1:According to the first three paragraphs, the author’s idea of collecting taxes is _________.
    A．reasonableB．responsibleC．unacceptableD．understandable
    小题2:The author takes tax-collecting as an example in the passage to prove that freedom is _________.
    A．unrealB．unbelievableC．achievableD．limited
    小题3:In the opinion of libertarians, freedom is realized mainly by _________.
    A．the lawB．self-controlC．ethical rulesD．common sense
    小题4:Which of the following statements is supported by libertarians according to the passage?
    A．National service should be canceled.
    B．People can do whatever they want.
    C．The government should have more power.
    D．They should be governed by the government.

    　　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.
