conversation, ancient stories, and also from other writers. he wrote not only about kings and queens and princes, but also about friends and ordinary people. he wrote about the cruelty of war and the bravery of heroes, as well as about jealousy, joy, hate, ambition and love. his stories live on. the tragedy was reborn as the musical and more recently as the movie with the wonderful performance of leonardo dicaprio and claire danes. he invented a number of great characters: powerful magicians, thrilling witches, smart women and both wise and wicked men. he also invented some great phrases. if youve ever said, “oh, for goodness sake!” you can thank shakespeare for that. “to be, or not to be: that is the question,” hamlet says. “good night, good night. parting is such sweet sorrow, that i shall say good night till it is morrow,” says juliet to her romeo. dont be surprised if you dont understand everything when reading shakespeare or watching one of his plays because the meanings of many words have changed over the years. and shakespeares characters speak in poetry, so their speeches can be complicated. it does help to find out a little bit about the story before reading a shakespeare play. its worth the effort. as shakespeare wrote, “all the world is a stage.” and in his plays youll find that an entire world is waiting for you.56. shakespeare created the following characters except _.a. julietb. hamlet c. claire danesd. romeo 57. from paragraph 3 we can learn that _.a. most of the characters created by shakespeare were negative onesb. most of the phrases used today were invented by shakespearec. “oh, for goodness sake!” is what juliet says to romeod. shakespeare contributed greatly to the development of english58. which of the following is a reason why its difficult to understand some of shakespeares plays?a. there are many new words in his plays.b. he wrote his plays using uncommon words.c. the characters in his plays speak in poetry.d. most of the words in his plays are outdated.59. we can infer from the passage that _.a. most of shakespeares plays have been made into filmsb. language changes with the development of societyc. shakespeare made lots of money from his worksd. it is more useful to read shakespeares works than to watch thembrecently, a professor of philosophy in the united states has written a book called money and the meaning of life. he has discovered that how we deal with money in our daytoday life has more meaning than we usually think. one of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. from the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life. he says that our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. you might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you have a very good friend. but you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. if he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesnt. this person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.answer: the most surprising thing is why people give me so much respect. i am nothing. i do not know much. all i am is rich.people just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? in his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.60the author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money _.ais a good way to test your friendship bwill do harm to your friendshipcwill strengthen your friendship dis a good way to break off your friendship61what can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?ahe does not feel that he is well educated. bhe does not think that he is a very important person.che does not think that being rich is worth so much attention.dhe does not consider himself to be very successful.62what does the american professor of philosophy want to explain in his book?amoney is an end. bmoney is a means.cmoney is everything. dmoney is unimportant.63which of the following might the author disagree with?amoney is important in modern society.bthe meaning of life does not completely lie in money.cwealth will surely bring the owner happinessd. happiness is not necessarily the result of wealth.c there are a number of special days of the year that are celebrated in different countries. the origins of most of the days are unknown. they were certainly not created by individual people. other days, however, especially those celebrated in western countries, often owe their origins to a particular person. one of the most popular of these, even though it is fairly recent, is mothers day. mothers have always been highly regarded in all cultures. the ancient romans had a festival known as hilaria, during which children took presents to the temple of the “mother of the gods”. the christian church adopted this idea and called it mothering sunday. however, over the years this custom was gradually forgotten and almost disappeared by the end of the 19th century.born in 1864 in virginia, usa, anna jarvis was a school teacher and believed children should show gratitude to their mothers for all their love and care. encouraged by a friend, she wrote to thousands of important peoplepoliticians, churchmen, doctors, city officialsand asked them to support her idea: a special day of the year for thanking mothers.in 1910 the governor of west virginia introduced mothers day into the state. the date chosen was may 10the second sunday in may, which is still observed in america today. this date was chosen because may 10 was the date on which in 1908 anna jarviss mother had died. in 1914 president woodrow wilson made may 10 the official date for mothers day throughout the united states.soon there was a mothers day international association and the custom began to be adopted in many countries of the world.anna jarvis, a sad and disillusioned（失望的） woman, died in 1948. the custom she had worked so hard to establish and which had become almost universal had lost its original purpose. it had been taken over by business. like christmas, the giving of presents and the sending of cards had become a multi-million-dollar industry. 64.the story is about .a. mothering sunday for christmasb. the origin of a special day for mothersc. president wilson and anna jarvisd. how people celebrate mothers day65. anna jarvis wanted to .a. thank her mother for her careb. introduce a celebration for mothersc. meet thousands of important peopled. make her pupils celebrate her on mothers day66. may 10 became the date for mothers day because .a. may is in the american springb. it was the second sunday in may in 1910c. president wilson liked the dated. this was the date on which anna jarviss mother died67. unfortunately, anna jarvis was not happy with mothers day when she died because .a. her mother was not there to see itb. she had never been a mother herselfc. people were too interested in making it a businessd. no one gave any presents or cards to their mothersdfrom a plane we can see the fields, cities, mountains or seas below. if we go into space（太空）, we see more and more of the earth. people and man-made satellites（人造卫星） have been sent out into space to look at the earth carefully and people have learnt more about the earth in the last few years. the sea looks very beautiful when the sun is shining on it. but it can be very terrible when there is a strong wind. the sea is very big. it nearly covers（ 覆盖）three quarters of the earth. the sea is also very deep in some places. there is one place and at that place the sea is about 11 kilometers deep. the highest mountain （山）in the world is about 9 kilometers high. if that mountain was put into the sea at that place, there would be still 2 kilometers of water above it! in most parts of the sea, there are many kinds of fishes and plants. some live near the top of the sea. others live deep down. there are also a lot of small living things, and lots of fishes live by eating them. the sea can be very cold. when people go down, the sea becomes colder and colder. only some men can go down into the deep sea. but, in 1970, five women scientists (科学家) lived in the deep sea for fourteen days.55. this passage is_.a. a short story b. for science reading c. a piece of news d.a report56. _are
