(how, after all, could one read a book more than once?) and i included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (could anything shorter be a book?)there was yet another high school list i made. one day i came across a newspaper article about an english professor at a nearby state college. the article had a list of the hundred most important books of western civilization. more than anything else in my life, the professor told the reporter with finality , these books have made me all that i am . that was the kind of words i couldnt ignore. i kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. most books, of course, i hardly understood. while reading platos the republic, for example, i needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. however, with the special patience and superstition (迷信) of a schoolboy, i looked at every word of the text. and by the time i reached the last word, pleased, i persuaded myself that i had read the republic, and seriously crossed plato off my list.56. which of the following is true according to the passage? a. the writer thought it was impossible for one to read two thousand books. b. while at high school, the writer had plans for reading. c. the writer only read books no more than 100 pages. d. the writer thought the teacher was not being serious about the suggestion of reading. 57. the underlined phrase with finality most probably means _. a. firmly b. immediatelyc. simply d. pleasantly58. the writers purpose in mentioning the republic is to_. a. explain why it was included in the list b. describe why he seriously crossed it off the list c. show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understand d. prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word59. the writer provides two book lists to _. a. show how he developed his point of view b. tell his reading experience at high schoolc. introduce the two persons reading methods d. explain that he read many books at high school 【参考答案】bacb in our culture, the sources of what we call a sense of “mastery”(control) feeling important and worthwhile and the sources of what we call a sense of “pleasure” finding life enjoyable are not always the samewomen often are told “you cant have it all.” sometimes what the speaker really is saying is: “you choose a career, so you cant expect to have closer relationships or a happy family life.” or “you have a wonderful husband and children whats all this about wanting a career?” but women need to understand and develop both aspects of well-being, if they are to feel good about themselves.our study shows that, for women, well-being has two aspectsone is mastery, which includes self-respect, a sense of control over your life, and low levels of anxiety and depressionmastery is closely related to the “doing” side of life, to work and activitypleasure is the other aspect, and it is made up of happiness, satisfaction and optimismit is tied more closely to the “feeling” side of lifethe two are independent of each othera woman could be high in mastery and low in pleasure, and vice versa(反之亦然)for example, a woman who has a good job, but whose mother has just died, might be feeling very good about herself and in control of her work life, but the pleasure side could be damaged for a time.the concepts of mastery and pleasure can help us identify the sources of well-being for women, and correct past mistakesin the past, women were encouraged to look only at the feeling side of life as the source of all well-beingbut we know that both mastery and pleasure are importantand mastery seems to be achieved largely through workin our study, all the groups of employed women were valued significantly higher in mastery than women who were not employed.a womans well-being is developed when she takes on various rolesat least by middle adulthood, the women who were involved in a combination of roles marriages, motherhood, and employment were the highest in well-being, in spite of warnings about stress and strain(极度紧张).4. it can be inferred from the first paragraph that _.a. for women, a sense of “mastery” is more important than a sense of “pleasure”b. for women, a sense of “pleasure” is more important than a sense of “mastery”c. women cant have a sense of “mastery” and a sense of “pleasure” at the same timed. a sense of “mastery” and a sense of “pleasure” are both necessary to women5. the authors attitude towards women having a career is_.a. negative bpositive c. indifferentd realistic6 . one can conclude from the passage that if a woman takes on several social roles, _.a. it will be easier for her to overcome stress and strainb. she will be more successful in her careerc. her chances of getting promoted will be greaterd. her life will be richer and more meaningful7 which of the following can be considered as a source of “pleasure” for women?a. family life b. various roles in societyc. regular employment d. freedom from anxiety 参考答案-db da some people who like to eat very hot chili(辣椒)peppers say that they can help you breathe better if you have a cold. others believe that chilies give you added energy. people have been growing chilies for centuries, and there are many kinds. want to fire up your meals with homegrown chilies?
