25、building.She trained as a nurse, but had to give it up when her elder child became seriously ill“I would have liked to go back to it, but the shifts（工作班次）are all wrong for me, as I have to be home to get the children up and off to school.”So she works as a cleaner instead, from 9 p.mtill 6 a.mfive n

26、ights a week for just 90, before tax and insurance“Its better than it was last year, but I still think that people who work unsocial hours should get a bit extra.”The hours shes chosen to work mean that she sees plenty of the children, but very little of her husbandHowever, she doesnt think that put

27、s any pressure on their relationship.Her work isnt physically very hard, but its not exactly pleasant, either“I do get angry with people who leave their offices like a place for raising pigsIf they realized people like me have to do it, perhaps theyd be a bit more careful.”The fact that shes working

28、 all night doesnt worry Margaret at allUnlike some dark buildings at night, the building where she works is fully lit, and the women work in groups of three“Since Ive got to be here, I try to enjoy myself and I usually do, because of the other girlsWe all have a good laugh, so the time never drags.”

29、Another challenge Margaret has to face is the reaction of other people when she tells them what she does for a living“They think youre a cleaner because you dont know how to read and write,” said Margaret, “I used to think what my parents would say if they knew what Id been doing, but I dont think t

30、hat way any moreI dont dislike the work though I cant say Im mad about it.”61Margaret quit her job as a nurse because _. Ashe wanted to earn more money to support her familyBshe had suffered a lot of mental pressureCshe needed the right time to look after her childrenDshe felt tired of taking care o

31、f patients62Margaret gets angry with people who work in the office because _.Athey never clean their officesBthey look down upon cleanersCthey never do their work carefullyDthey always make a mess in their offices63When at work, Margaret feels _.Alight-hearted because of her fellow workersBhappy bec

32、ause the building is fully litCtired because of the heavy workloadDbored because time passes slowly64The underlined part in the last paragraph implies that Margarets parents would _. Ahelp care for her childrenBregret what they had saidCshow sympathy for herDfeel disappointed in herBDomestic （驯养的） h

33、orses now pull ploughs, race in the Kentucky Derby, and carry policeBut early horses werent tame （驯服的） enough to perform these kinds of tasksScientists think the first interactions humans had with horses were far different from those today.Thousands of years ago, people killed the wild horses that l

34、ived around them for foodOver time, people began to catch the animals and raise themThis was the first step in domestication.As people began to tame and ride horses, they chose to keep those animals that had more desirable characteristicsFor example, people may have chosen to keep horses that had a

35、gentle personality so they could be ridden more easilyPeople who used horses to pull heavy loads would have chosen to keep stronger animalsCharacteristics like strength are partly controlled by the animals genesSo as the domesticated horses reproduced, they passed the characteristics on to their you

36、ngEach new generation of horses would show more of these chosen characteristics.Modern-day horse breeds（种类） come in a wide variety of shapes and sizesThis variety didnt exist in the horse population before domesticationThe Shetland horse is one of the smallest breeds typically reaching only one mete

37、r tallWith short, strong legs, the animals were bred to pull coal out of mine shafts （矿井） with low ceilingsHuge horses like the Clydesdale came on the scene around 1700People bred these heavy, tall horses to pull large vehicles used for carrying heavy loads.The domestication of horses has had great

38、effects on societiesFor example, horses were important tools in the advancement of modern agricultureUsing them to pull ploughs and carry heavy loads allowed people to farm more efficientlyBefore they were able to ride horses, humans had to cross land on footRiding horses allowed people to travel fa

39、r greater distance in much less timeThat encouraged populations living in different areas to interact with one anotherThe new form of rapid transportation helped cultures spread around the world.65Before domestication horses were _.Acaught for sports Bhunted for foodCmade to pull ploughsDused to car

40、ry people66The author uses the Shetland horse as an example to show _.Ait is smaller than the Clydesdale horseBhorses used to have gentle personalitiesCsome horses have better shapes than othersDhorses were of less variety before domestication67Horses contributed to the spread of culture by _.Acarry

41、ing heavy loadsBchanging farming methodsCserving as a means of transportDadvancing agriculture in different areas68The passage is mainly about _.Awhy humans domesticated horsesBhow humans and horses needed each otherCwhy horses came in different shapes and sizesDhow human societies and horses influe

42、nced each otherCI had an experience some years ago, which taught me something about the ways in which people make a bad situation worse by blaming themselvesOne January, I had to hold two funerals on successive days for two elderly women in my communityBoth had died “full of years”, as the Bible wou

43、ld sayTheir homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence （吊唁） calls on the two families on the same afternoon.At the first home, the son of the deceased （已故的） woman said to me, “If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow , she would be alive todayI

44、ts my fault that she died.” At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, “If only I hadnt insisted on my mothers going to Florida, she would be alive todayThat long airplane ride, the sudden change of climate, was more than she could takeIts my fault that shes dead.” You see that an

45、y time there is a death, the survivors will feel guiltyBecause the course of action they took turned out badly, they believe that the opposite course keeping Mother at home, putting off the operation would have turned out betterAfter all, how could it have turned out any worse?There seem to be two e

46、lements involved in our willingness to feel guiltyThe first is our pressing need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happensThat leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only

47、 in our minds.The second element is the view that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happenIt seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believing that every disaster is our faultThe roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood.A baby come

48、s to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in itHe wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to its tasksHe cries, and someone comes to attend to himWhen he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change himVery often, we do

49、 not completely outgrow that childish view that our wishes cause things to happen.69The author had to hold the two womens funerals probably because .Ahe wanted to comfort the two families Bhe was an official from the community Che had great pity for the deceased Dhe was priest of the local church 70

50、People feel guilty for the deaths of their loved ones because .Athey couldnt find a better way to express their sorrow Bthey believe that they were responsible Cthey had neglected the natural course of events Dthey didnt know things often turn out in the opposite direction 71According to the passage

51、, the underlined part in paragraph 4 probably means that .Aeverything in the world is predeterminedBthe world can be interpreted in different ways Ctheres an explanation for everything in the world Dwe have to be sensible in order to understand the world 72Whats the main idea of the passage?ALife an

52、d death is an unsolved mystery.BEvery story should have a happy ending.CNever feel guilty all the time because not every disaster is our fault.DIn general, the survivors will feel guilty about the people who passed away .DMany Americans are turning to Japan, they think, a country of high academic ac

53、hievement and economic success, for possible answersHowever, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to findIn most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instructionIn one survey, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers,

54、 child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood educationOnly 2 percent of the Japanese respondents （答问卷者） listed “to give children a good start academically” as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschoolsIn contrast, over half the

55、American respondents chose this as one of their top three choicesTo prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond, Japanese preschools do not teach reading, writing, and mathematics, but rather skills such as determination, concentration, and the ability to work as a member of a

56、groupThe huge majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parentsLike in America, there is diversity （多样性） in Japanese early childhood educationSome Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training or potential developmentIn large cities, some kin

57、dergartens are attached to universities that have elementary and secondary schoolsSome Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the childrens chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated（一流的） schools and universitiesSeveral more p

58、rogressive programs have introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing （智能化） in some Japanese kindergartens.73We learn from the first paragraph that many Americans believe .AJapanese parents are more involved in preschool education than American parents BJapans economic success i

59、s a result of its scientific achievements CJapanese preschool education emphasizes academic instruction DJapans higher education is superior to theirs 74In Japans preschool education, the focus is on .Apreparing children academically Bdeveloping childrens artistic interests Cdeveloping childrens pot

60、ential Dshaping childrens character 75Why do some Japanese parents send their children to university-based kindergartens?AThey can do better in their future studies.BThey can make more group experience grow there.CThey can be self-centered when they grow up.DThey can have better chances of getting a

61、 first-rate education.76Free play has been introduced in some Japanese kindergartens in order to .Abroaden childrens knowledge Btrain childrens creativityClighten childrens study load Denrich childrens experience EWhat is time? Is it a thing to be saved or spent or wasted, like money? Or is it somet

62、hing we have no control over, like the weather? Is it the same all over the world? Thats an easy question, you sayWherever you go, a minute is 60 seconds, an hour is 60 minutes, a day is 24 hours, and so forthWell, maybeBut in America, time is more than thatAmericans see time as a valuable resourceM

63、aybe thats why they are fond of the expression, “Time is money.”Because Americans believe time is a limited resource, they try to keep and manage itPeople in the US often attend conferences or read books on time managementIt seems they all want to organize their time betterProfessionals carry around

64、 pocket planners（计划书） some in electronic form to keep track of appointments and deadlinesPeople do all they can to press more life out of their time.To Americans, punctuality is a way of showing respect for other peoples timeBeing more than 10 minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apol

65、ogy, and maybe an explanationPeople who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delayOf course, the less formal the situation, the less important it is to be exactly on timeAt informal get-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes past the appointed timeBu

66、t they usually dont try that at work.American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of othersWhen people plan an event, they often set time days or weeks in advanceOnce the time is fixed, it takes almost an emergency to change itIf people want to come to your house for a friendly visit, t

67、hey will usually call first to make sure it is convenientOnly very close friends will just “drop by” unannouncedAlso, people hesitate to call others late at night for fear they might be in bedThe time may vary, but most folks think twice about calling after 10:00 pm.Even Americans would admit that n

68、o one can master timeTime, like money, slips all too easily through our fingerAnd time, like the weather, is very hard to predictHowever, time is one of lifes most precious gifts.77The main idea of the passage is _.Atime is moneyBdifferent attitude toward time in the world Chow to save timeDhow Amer

69、icans treat time78In the fourth paragraph, the writer mainly tells us that _.AAmericans respect others time in daily life BAmericans seldom call after 10:00CAmericans inform before paying a visit to their friends Dwhen planning an event, Americans usually fix time ahead of time79The underlined phras

70、e “think twice” （in Paragraph 4） probably means “_ “.Athink for a second time Bbe carefulCbe afraid Dpay attention80It can be inferred from the passage that _.AAmericans like time better than anything else Bgenerally speaking, Americans respect their time Con the whole, Americans treasure their time

77、and more senior three students are moving out from their dorms and living in a rented apartment nearby their schoolsToward this issue, there are different points of view from students, parents and schools.Most students think although school dorms bring them fun and friendship, the blackout rule to g

78、uarantee students sleeping hours doesnt leave them enough time to finish homeworkWorse still, the noise in the dorm not only influences their studies but also ruins their rest.To many parents, their investment is worthwhile if it works better for their childrens studies to rent an apartment nearby schoolBesides, they can take care of their childrens daily meals and laundry, so their children can eat better and have a comfortable life.In my opinion,
