         For years Tom Anderson's life was withered up (枯萎) by the memory of his part in a fraternity
    (友爱, 互助会) adventure that resulted in the death of one of his classmates.He and his wife separated
    after six years of marriage.Then the news about Tom changed.His wife Betty came back; he earned a
    fine position.One day he told me what had changed his life."I used to think, 'Nothing can undo what I
    have done.' The thought of my guilt would stop me in the middle of a smile or a handshake.It put a
    wall between my wife and me."
         "Then I had an unexpected visit from the person I was most afraid to see-the mother of the  college
    classmate who died.'Years ago', she said, 'I found it in my heart, through prayer, to  forgive you. Betty
    forgave you.So did your friends and employers.'She paused, and then said seriously, 'You are the one
    person who hasn't forgiven Tom Anderson.Who do you think you are to stand out against the people
    of this town and the Lord Almighty?'I looked into her eyes and found there a_kind_of_permission_to
    _be_the_person_I_might_have_been_if_her_boy_had_lived.For the first time in my adult life I felt
    worthy to love and be loved."
    It is only through forgiveness of our mistakes that we gain the freedom to learn from experience.But
    forgiving our shortcomings doesn't mean denying that they exist.On the contrary, it means facing them
    honestly, realistically.
         Can a person be allforgiving and still be human?A scientist I know spent four years as a slave
    laborer in Germany.His parents were killed by Nazi street bullies; his younger sister and older brother
    were sent to the gas chambers.This is a man who has every reason to hate.Yet he is filled with a love
    of life that he conveys to everyone who knows him.He explained it to me the other day: "In the
    beginning I was filled with hatred.Then I realized that in hating I had become my own enemy.Unless
    you forgive, you cannot love.And without love, life has no meaning."Forgiveness is truly the saving
    grace.
    1. Tom Anderson and his wife separated after six years of marriage probably because________.
    A. he had killed one of his classmates
    B. he had cared more for his adventure than for his wife
    C. his wife looked down upon his poor position
    D. his life had been made in a great mess by his deep guilt
    2. The key reason for which Tom's life changed back to normal may be that________.
    A. his wife Betty came back to him
    B. the mother of his college classmate asked Betty to forgive him for his guilt
    C. he eventually learned to face his guilt honestly, realistically and forgave himself
    D. he earned a fine position and finally made a lot of money
    3. The underlined part in the second paragraph means that________.
    A. the mother of my college classmate permitted me to be a real person
    B. even my college classmate would permit me to be what I used to be
    C. I wouldn't be a person unless my college classmate permitted me to
    D. I might have been a successful person if my college classmate had lived
    4. The best title for this passage could be________.
    A. Forgiveness: the saving grace
    B. Hatred: unrealistic way of living
    C. Love: a meaningful worthy life
    D. Guilt: unforgivable mistake

                                                                  Crossing the Rubicon
          The march to Italy was began.The soldiers were even more enthusiastic than Caesar (恺撒) himself.
    They climbed mountains, waded rivers, endured tiredness, and faced all kinds of danger for the sake of
    their great leader.
         At last they came to a little river called the Rubicon (卢比孔河). It was the boundary line of Caesar's
    Province of Gaul; on the other side of it was Italy.Caesar paused a moment on the bank.He knew that to
    cross it would be to declare war against Pompey and the Roman Senate; it would involve all Rome in a
    fearful battle, the end of which no man could foresee.
         But he did not hesitate long.He gave the word, and rode boldly across the shallow stream.
         "We have crossed the Rubicon, " he cried as he reached the farther shore."There is now no turning
    back." Soon the news was carried to Rome "Caesar has crossed the Rubicon" and there was great fear
    among those who had planned to destroy him.Pompey's soldiers deserted him and hurried to join
    themselves to Caesar's army.The Rome senators and their friends made ready to escape from the city.
         "Caesar has crossed the Rubicon!" was shouted along the roads and byways leading to Rome; and
    the country people turned out to meet and hail with joy the conquering hero.
         The word was carried a second time to the city "Caesar has crossed the Rubicon" and the wild fight
    began.Senators and public officers left everything behind and hurried away to seek safety with Pompey.
    On foot, on horseback, in litters, in carriages, they fled for their lives-all because Caesar had crossed the
    Rubicon.Pompey was unable to protect them.He hurried to the seacoast, and, with all who were able to
    accompany him, sailed away to Greece.
         Caesar was the master of Rome.
    1. Which of the following can NOT be used to describe Caesar's army?
    A. Enthusiastic in the march.
    B. Not afraid of tiredness.
    C. Brave in the march.
    D. Eager to be great leaders.
    2. According to the passage, crossing the Rubicon meant all of the following EXCEPT that________.
    A. Caesar declared war against Pompey and the Roman Senate
    B. Caesar would involve all Rome in the battle
    C. Caesar would be defeated in the war
    D. Caesar was determined to carry out the battle
    3. What happened when the news was first carried to Rome that Caesar had crossed the Rubicon?
    A. The people who had been against Caesar felt very frightened.
    B. The people who had turned traitor to Caesar were wild with joy.
    C. The public officers and soldiers fought bravely against Caesar.
    D. The Rome senators and their friends had already escaped.
    4. What did Pompey do after Caesar crossed the Rubicon?
    A. He rode to the bank of the Rubicon hurriedly.
    B. He fled to Greece by sea with all his companions.
    C. He had all his relatives and soldiers stay with him.
    D. He kept calm and stayed in Rome, defeating his enemies.

         One in five US teenagers have some degree of hearing loss, according to researchers who said the
    problem is growing."Teenagers really underestimate how much noise they are exposed to" Dr Josef
    Shargorodsky said.____
         The study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, compared national
    surveys between the early 1990s and the mid2000s.In the first survey, about 15 percent of teenagers
    had some degree of hearing loss.____Most of the hearing loss was in one ear only.While it was
    usually slight, one in 20 adolescents had more pronounced (显著的) problems-up 50 percent since
    the first survey.
         Hearing loss is very common in the elderly, Grimes said, but she added that it was concerning to
    see it come into the younger age groups.In babies and young children, hearing problems are known
    to delay language development, which in turn influences performance in other areas.Slight hearing loss,
    for instance, makes it difficult to distinguish between highfrequency consonants like "s" and "f"
         ____The science is less clear for adolescents, but it is easy to imagine how being hard of hearing
    could influence learning, said Grimes."We know from a lot of data that noisy classrooms are one of the
    biggest challenges to learning."
         The reasons for the rise are still uncertain.When asked about noise exposure-on the job, from
    firearms or recreational activities, for instance-the teenagers didn't indicate any change.But
    Shargorodsky said, "We knew from before that it is difficult to ask this age group about noise
    exposure-they underestimate it."____Although it's not clear that these devices are to blame,
    Grimes said it was still a good idea to turn down the volume.But she pointed out the advice would
    likely fall on deaf ears.She said the American Academy of Hearing had also contacted Steve Jobs,
    the CEO of Apple, about adding a volume limiter on iPods, but never heard back.
    1. In which place should the sentence "Few people would call it noise when they listen
        to music on their MP3 players, for instance." be put?
    A. ①  
    B. ②  
    C. ③  
    D. ④
    2. What's the main idea of the third paragraph?
    A. Hearing loss was very common in the elderly in the country.
    B. The sounds like "s" and "f" are hard to distinguish by babies.
    C. The number of teenagers with hearing problems is decreasing.
    D. Babies and teenagers are also facing problems of hearing loss.
    3. Which of the following is TRUE?
    A. The reasons of the hearing loss are known to the researchers.
    B. The surveys have been carried out for at most 15 years.
    C. The reasons for the rise are clear to the researchers.
    D. The results of the surveys have been published in a newspaper.
    4. The American Academy of Hearing contacted the CEO of Apple in order to________.
    A. share the surveys with the CEO of Apple
    B. get more help in finance from the Apple Company
    C. remind the company to add a volume limiter on iPods
    D. express warning and threat to the CEO of Apple

    A. Interest and importance
    B. Positive expectation
    C. People can't have perfect memory.
    D. Memory is an active process.
    E. A relaxed mind helps memory.
    F. Control depression.
    1._____
         Most of us express dissatisfaction with our memory, especially when we want to recall some detai
    l and we can't.Some examples are, an address or a telephone number, the time of a meeting,
    somebody's name, etc.Even people who I think have an excellent memory, complain that they forget
    things.Memory works like a bank.You can get to it, only if you put it there.If you didn't deposit it, you
    can't collect it when you need it.It is described what we need to do to improve our memory in this article.
    2. ____
        Recall of a particular event or detail depends on the interest we take and the importance we assign
    to that detail or event, at the time when it is taking place.We remember so much more about people,
    places, and topics which fascinate us.When you are greatly interested in a subject, you pay close
    attention and your brain releases chemicals to form deeper "imprints" on the cells that store memory.
    3.  ____
         The more active attention you pay, the more details you observe, the more you think, reason, and
    comprehend, the more associations you make of what you know with what you are trying to learn, the
    more you will retain and be able to recall, later on.Good memory is a state of the active mind.
    4. _____
         Learn with a relaxed mind.Recall the learned material with a relaxed mind.Let's take as an example
    a situation where you misplace your car keys.If you get too anxious about yourself in trying to recall
    something, as is the case in this example, you are in for frustration.But, if you relax your mind, and
    calmly go through the events backward, you are more likely to remember where you left them.
    5. _____
         Depression can make the interest and joy less in the events surroundings us.As a result, too little
    energy is left to recall anything.Some depressed persons become more anxious and depressed thinking,
    "I have lost my mind." Once depression is treated, memory as a general rule, returns to the normal.
