13、 the Beautiful and Damned (1922), a collection of short stories Thales of the Jazz Age (1922), and a play The Vegetable (1923). But his greatest success was The Great Gatsby, published in 1925, which quick brought him praise from the literary world. Yet it failed to give him the needed financial sec

14、urity. Then, in 1926, he published another collection of short stories All the Sad Young Men. However, Fitzgeralds problems with his wife Zelda affected his writing.

19、eralds contributions to the literary worldCWith the explosion of consumer choices in recent history, the latest must-haves would surely need to be upgraded more often than every 10 years. In 2002 a computer and basic mobile phone would have been enough for most people, but now? The public need a tre

20、ndy notebook computer and a smart phone with WiFi connection to feel they are up-to-date. So when will we have enough things? When will we finally be happy? Well, it looks like the things we buy today will barely keep us satisfied for a few months. In the eyes of some psychologists, far from making

21、us happy, greater consumer choice creates many serious psychological problems. A fundamental principle of the society is that more freedom is better and more choice in the marketplace means more freedom. Therefore more choice leads to more happiness. This is not the case, however. Imagine you go to

22、a cafe offering chocolate and vanilla ice cream. You choose the chocolate and eat it happily. But what if the cafe serves 50 kinds of ice cream? You choose chocolate and then start to worry, maybe blueberry would have been better, perhaps the half-fat ice cream would have been healthier. Stupid me a

According to Dr Tany

28、a King, senior lecturer from Victorias Deakin University, “Its Australians egalitarianism, sense of humor and informal language that are most commonly mentioned as examples of this attitude”. Egalitarianism roots in the way that the nation was built. In Australias founding era in the late 1700s, cri

29、minal settlers were often cruelly treated and robbed of their basic human rights by governors. The criminal class, who were mostly working-class Brits and Irish, was unable to seek civic positions that were reserved for immigrants who were not the criminal, with the latter arguing that if criminals

30、gained equal rights it would be rewarding criminality. Because of this, an egalitarian spirit was worn as a symbol of honor by many criminal settlers. They may not have had power, education or wealth, but they had a shared belief in equality. The informal way Australians use language is also believe

31、d to root in criminal times. Philologist Sidney Baker once wrote that no other class would have a better talent for creating new terms to fit in with their new conditions in life. Cockney rhyming slang brought over by the British working class was abbreviated even further so have a Captains Cook (ha

32、ve a look), became avacaptains. This same practice was used to economize ordinary clauses. Words like good day became gday, and barbecue was barbie. The tough conditions of settler times also played a part in Australians dry, self-criticizing and sarcastic （讽刺的） sense of humor. While in many countri

33、es its considered poor taste to find humor in difficult circumstances, Australians tend to look at the lighter side. On one road trip, as I hit the state line and entered Victoria, I drove past some blackened trees, the leftovers of a recent bush fire. A road sign warning drivers about wildlife was

34、half-melted and bent, but the shape of a hopping kangaroo was still distinct. Behind the figure, someone had drawn flames making it look as though the animals tail was on fire. I couldnt help but laugh it was a brilliant reminder of the countrys nothing upsets us and anti-authoritarian attitude. And

35、 one thing you cant help but notice when driving around Australia is the countrys plentiful amounts of space. This, along with considerable leisure time plus favorable climate, all contribute to Australians relaxed attitude.32. The underlined word “egalitarianism” is closest to _ in meaning.A. Crimi

36、nalityB.crueltyC. equalityD.governmentalism33. Which of the following is a feature of the way Australians use language?A. They use more slangs than other people.B. They give new meanings to existent words.C. They favour shortened forms of expressions.D. They coin terms in memory of criminal times.34

37、. What can be inferred from paragraph 4?A. Kangaroos living conditions are getting tougher.B. Forest fires threaten Australians life to a great extent.C. Potential danger is here and there on the roads in Victoria.D. Australians jokes may not be as careless as they seem on the surface.35. The passag

39、needs first, before my own.

Do you nourish yourself with the right foods, get enough sleep, exercise, are at a healthy weight, and on top of your check-ups? 38.Now think about how much more you could give to others when you arent exhausted, youre happy with what you see in the

41、mirror, and you arent on edge with stress. 39If you comfort yourself in destructive ways and have a negative attitude and energy about you, realize that its not just affecting you, but others too.

60、ADC 53-57ADBBA58. and59.severely60.toys61.causes62.in63.which64.believing65.killed66 chanllenging.67.how改错：1. of 是介词，of 之后加动名词 doing。将 visit 改为 visiting。2.由后文 . during the National Day holidays this year . 可知，此处应使用一般过去时。将 come 改为 came。3. 由 October 1st 可知，表示具体“在某一天”用介词 on，由于此空在句首，首字母要大写。将 In 替换为 On。4

61、. 由句意可知，此处并无并列连词连接两个句子，故第二个句子为非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词 Tiananmen Square。又由于从句引导词在从句中充当地点状语，故引导词用 where。将 there 替换为 where。5. flag 在此处特指作者提到的升旗仪式上的国旗，故前面用定冠词 the 修饰表示特指。在 flag 之前添加 the。6. exciting 令人激动的，多用来形容事物；excited 感到激动的，用来形容人的感受，此处应用 excited 来形容“我”的心情。将 exciting 替换为 excited。7. attraction 意为“景点”，是可数名词，由其前面的形容词 some 可知应使用 attraction 的复数形式。将 attraction 替换为 attractions。8. feel 为感官动词，后面可直接接形容词表示“感到”，此处feel proud“感到自豪”。将 proudly 替换为 proud。9. 这是一句俗语，“不到长城非好汉”，在俗语里谓语动词时态用一般现在时，表示公认的道理、事实。又由于定语从句的先行词 one 是第三人称单数，故谓语动词使用相应的形式，即第三人称单数。将 fail 替换为 fails。10. although 与 but 不可连用。将 but 删除/将 Although 删
