No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. “Just dont tell my mother,” said Fee numbly. “And no one did! Oh, God! My poor, poor Frank!”Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said. “Fee dear, pack your things. Well go to see him.”She half-rose before sinking back, her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead. “I cant go,”she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there.“It would kill him to see me. I know him so wellhis pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, its what he wants.Weve got to help him keep his secret.What good will it do him to see us?”Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fees face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself.He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children.Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away.But Paddys love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.So he said.“Well, Fee, we wont go. But we must make sure he is taken care of.How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?”The eyes didnt liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks. “Yes, Paddy, do that.Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out. Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we dont know.”41. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Frank was found guilty of murder because he was a professional boxer.B. The family didnt find out what happened to Frank until three years later.C. The jury and the judge disagreed on whether Frank had committed murder.D. Frank didnt want his family to find out what happened because Paddy disliked him.42. Paddy cried because he thought _.A. Frank did kill someone and deserved the punishmentB. Frank should have told Fee what had happenedC. what had happened to Frank was killing FeeD. Frank had always been a man of bad moral character43. “She half-rose before sinking back” (in Paragraph 6) shows that_.A. Fee was so heart-broken that she could hardly stand upB. Fee didnt want to upset Paddy by visiting FrankC. Fee couldnt leave her family to go to see FrankD. Fee struggled between wanting to see Frank and respecting his wish44.Which of the following suggests that Fee was deeply shocked by what happened to Frank?A. “Her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead.”B. “Let him bear the shame alone, its what he wants.”C. “Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away.”D. “The eyes didnt liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks.”45. What is Fees probable relationship with Frank and Paddy?A. Son and brother.B. Son and husband.C. Brother and lover.D. Lover and husband.BAs you sow, sow will reap. With your perseverance and improvement, you are getting closer to success. At this stage, wait for others to congratulate you on your accomplishment s and compliments graciously. “Thanks, I really worked hard on that prospect. Im pleased you recognize my efforts.” The congratulations and compliments from others will promote you to gain further success.Self-confidence is extremely important in almost every aspect of our lives, and it is no wonder that so many people struggle to find it. Self-confidence really can be learned and built on. Besides, whether youre working on your own self-confidence or building the confidence of people around you, its well worth the effort! 46. Those who are truly confident _.A. succeed without effort and hard work B. encourage people around to become confidentC. appear more attractive and thus become successfulD. gain the confidence of others and feel successful47. The underlined word “mock” (Para.3 ) is closest in meaning to _.A. praise B. imitate C. punish D. laugh at48. When others congratulate us on our achievements, we are supposed to _.A. praise them in return B. gain further improvement C. politely accept the compliments D. expect them to congratulate you again49. Which of the following proverbs best goes with Paragraph 4?A. Look before your leap.B. It is no use crying over spilt milk.C. Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.D. Learn from past mistakes and avoid future ones. 50. The purpose of the text is to _. A. tell people how to become successfulB. convince people to do what they believe to be rightC. encourage people to build confidence and achieve successD. criticize people who lack confidence and thus fail in their careerCAdvertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why theyre always coming in for criticism (批评). Their critics seem to hate or resent them because they have a gift for self-promotion and because they have so much money to throw around. “Its unfair,” they say, “that this entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why dont they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, its the consumer who pays”The poor old consumer! Hed have to pay a great deal more if advertising didnt create mass markets for products. It is exactly because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods comes largely from the advertisements we read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more likely that you would obtain details about performance, price, etc., from an advertisement.Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway regulations while waiting for a train? Would you like to read only closely-printed columns of news in your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a dull wall or a newspaper full of the daily amount of great disasters. We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers, commercial radio and television companies could not survive without this source of income. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many broadcast programmes is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustnt forget is the “small ads”, which are actually in every newspaper and magazine. What an extremely useful service they perform for the community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns! For instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to be called the “hatch, match and dispatch” column but so far the most fascinating section is the personal or “agony” column (读者来信专栏). No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. Its the best advertisement for advertising there is!51. What is the main idea of this passage? A. The costs of advertisement. B. Advertisers tend to think big. C. The benefits of advertisement. D. Advertisements perform a useful service to communities.52. Why do the critics criticize advertisers? A. Because customers are poor. B. Because critics think advertisement is a waste of money. C. Because advertisers promote products with too much money. D. Because customers are encouraged to buy more than necessary.53. Which of the following is Not true? A. Advertisement makes our life colorful. B. Newspapers are worth more than we pay. C. Good quality products dont need to be advertised. D. Advertisement makes contribution to our pockets and we may know everything.54. In what way does the writer try to support his view? A. ComparisonB. Description C. Narration D. DefinitionDWhich is sillier: denying we ever went to the moon or trying to convince the true nonbelievers?Once upon a time July 20, 1969, to be specific two men got out of their little spaceship and wandered around on the moon for a while. Ten more men walked on the moon over the next three and a half years. Unfortunately, not quite. A fair number of Americans think that this whole business of moon landings really is a fairy tale. They believe that the landings were a big hoax (骗局) staged in the Mojave Desert, to convince everyone that U.S. technology was the “best” in the whole wide world. Which is the harder thing to do: Send men to the moon or make believe we did? The fact is the physics behind sending people to the moon is simple. You can do it with computers whose entire memory capacities can now fit on chips the size of postage stamps and that cost about as much as, well, a postage stamp. I know you can because we did. However, last fall NASA considered spending $15,000 on a public-relations campaign to convince the unimpressed that Americans had in fact gone to the moon. That idea was mostly a reaction to a Fox television program, first aired in February 2001, that claimed to expose the hoax. The shows creator is a publicity hound (猎狗) who has lived up to the name in more ways than one by hounding Buzz Aldrin, the second man on the moon. Mr. X (as I will call him, thereby denying him the joyous sight of his name in print) recently followed Buzz Aldrin around and called him “a thief, liar and coward” until the 72-year-old astronaut finally lost it and hit the 37-year-old Mr. X in the face. Anyway, NASAs publicity campaign began to slow down. The nonbelievers took the campaign as NASAs effort to hide something while the believers said that $15,000 to convince people that the world was round I mean, that we had gone to the moon was simply a waste of money. (Actually, the $15,000 was supposed to pay for an article by James E. Oberg, an astronomy writer who, with Aldrin, has contributed to Scientific American.) If NASAs not paying Oberg, perhaps it could put the money to good use by hiring two big guys to drag Neil Armstrong out of the house. Armstrong is an extremely private man, but he is also the first man on the moon, so maybe he has a duty to be a bit more outspoken about the experience. Or NASA could just buy Aldrin a commemorate plaque (纪念匾) for his recent touch on the face of Mr. X. 55. We can learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3 that some Americans believe _. A. moon landings were invented B. U.S. technology wa
