fabricated stories, he left his house in search of a real life story.he reached a village and took a cottage for rent. after wandering in the village throughout the month, in search of true stories, the storyteller couldnt find one. disappointed, he decided to stop his search.the next day, while sitting in the cottage, he suddenly heard a voicea woman was yelling(吼叫)at someone. the voice was coming from the big wall behind his cottage.he tried to hear the conversation; it sounded like the woman was abusing(辱骂)her daughterinlaw. the storyteller didnt like it but he was happy to finally get his story.listening to the conversations each day he added them to his story. though he couldnt see the characters of his story, he started hating the motherinlaw, as she seemed to be a villain(坏人)now it was time to finalize the end of the story. but before he did, the storyteller wanted to see the characters once, so he climbed up the wall.there he saw the motherinlaw sitting in a wheelchair. it seemed she was disabled and that the daughterinlaw was resting nearby.he saw the old lady trying to get some food lying on the table near her chair. but because of her condition, she couldnt reach it and it looked like the daughterinlaw was enjoying the old ladys helplessness. suddenly the old lady fell from the chair and started abusing her daughterinlaw.the storyteller went back and quickly changed the ending of the story. he was surprised how different it was compared to what he originally thought it would be.truly he had found both a real life story and a real life lesson.16. whats the meaning of the underlined word“fabricated” in paragraph 1?a. funny. b. imaginary.c. amazing. d. romantic.17. why did the storyteller climb up the wall?a. he thought he was strong enough to do it.b. he expected to find out what was happening.c. he would like to find a good ending for his story.d. he wanted to have a look at the woman and herdaughterinlaw.18. why did the old woman start abusing her daughterinlaw?a. her daughterinlaw didnt take care of her.b. her daughterinlaw was too busy to help her.c. her daughterinlaw pushed her out of her wheelchair.d. her daughterinlaw didnt allow her to get food.19. what lesson can we learn from the text?a. no one is as deaf as the man who will not listen.b. a good listener is not someone with nothing to say.c. dont just listen to ones words. watch what one does.d. everybody lies, but it doesnt matter because nobody listens.答案与解析：16b根据第一段“he left his house in search of a real life story”可知，他平常讲的故事都不是真实的，而是虚构的。fabricated“编造的，虚构的”，与imaginary意义相同。17d根据第六段的内容可知，说书人爬墙是为了看一眼故事中的主人公。18a根据第八段可知，那位老太太由于残疾坐在轮椅中，她够不到食物，而儿媳似乎很高兴看到她的无助。当老人跌倒时，她开始骂儿媳了。19c讲故事的人在看到婆媳二人的实际情况后，才发现婆婆骂儿媳的真正原因，而之前他仅凭在墙外听得出了错误的结论。可见本文的寓意为“耳听为虚，眼见为实”，与c项的陈述相符。bmy students often tell me that they do not have “enough time” to do all their schoolwork. my reply is often a brief “you have as much time as the president”. i usually carry on a bit about there being twenty four hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that “not enough time” is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done. once in graduate school, i tried to justify (证明有理) myself to one of my professors by saying that i was working hard. his answer to me was，“thats irrelevant. whats important is the quality of your work.” since then i have had time to reflect on the “hard worker” dodge(妙计), and i have come to some conclusions, all relevant to the issue of how much time we have. if you look at the matter analytically, you can identify two parts of the problem: there is, of course, the matter of “time”， which we can think of as fixed. then there is the issue of “work” during that time, which can vary in intensity. but, as my professor suggested, its not the diligence of the work but the quality of the product thats important. that led me to a new idea: the quality of the work. that concept is perhaps best explained by a sign i once saw on the wall in someones office: “dont work harder. work smarter.” theres a lot of sense in that idea. if you cant get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. that means devising(想出) ways of getting more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. that should lead us to an analysis of our work habits. since “work” for students usually means “homework”， the expression “work habits” should be read as “study habits” then, as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study, chiefly reading and writing. if you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that pay off across the board in all your studies.20. from the passage, we know that the author is most probably_.a. a poet b. an educator c. a novelist

wrong.c. many of us can get more time to improve the quality of the work.d. improving reading and writing skills will benefit students a lot.23. which of the following would be the best title for the passage?a. not an acceptable explanationb. dont work harder. work smarterc. an analysis of our work habitsd. read better and write better答案与解析：20b根据第一段首句中的关键信息my students和第三段中的关键信息once in graduate school说明“我”研究生毕业后从事的是教育行业，故an edu
