the quality just wasnt there.then there are my true friendsthe ones who, like a pair of fine shoes, never go out of style or out of favor, whose appeal and value just increase with wear and time. these are friends who stay in touch and stand by meas if they and i have never gone off to a new state, or a new job. physical distance does not separate us; time does not change the fundamental fact of our friendship; the wear and tear of life does not stop us. the sole still support us; the colors and lines still please us; the uppers, still strong but grown soft, gently bent around feet. our connection is securely fastened, unaffected by the whirlwind of changes weve each been through, even when life carries us in different directions.if the comparison fitsdeborah is the evening shoe, elegant and lovely. she appreciates the finer things, choose only the best, and still looks polished long after the rest of us have drooped. she is a study in elegance and knows the difference between bone, and winter white. from this splendid treasure, ive come to recognize my own appreciation for the finer things in lifeand to the realization that i deserved them.jane is that pair of essential, timeless pumps that i wear often and would be lost without. with this classic, my basic needs and comfort level are assuredleaving me time and energy for fun. i can move gracefully from day to night, from work to play, from jokes to discussion. my step is light; laughter comes easily and i am ready for adventure.georgiana is my pair of standard white kedsfamiliar, comfortable and good for all seasons. ive had them since long before. they are part of my childhood. they take me home, and i am a kid again diving into the ocean on a hot summer day. they have been up the hill and through the mud with me. they keep me moving forward, even when putting one foot in front of the other feels like the hardest thing ive ever done. i know i can slip them tomorrow and all days after. i am indebted to these lovely worn sneakers.in the shoe rack of life, these are the friends i cherish. they are the base upon which i stand. they accompany me on my chosen path, regardless of where it leads or how bumpy or winding it gets.41. the writer s fortieth birthday was mentioned as a(n) .a. explanation for her buying new shoesb. introduction of the topic of the passage c. description of her satisfaction with lifed. suggestion on how to win friends42. paragraph 2 is mainly about .a. where i can find good friendsb. when i should say good-bye to my friendsc. why i dont like some of my friendsd. how i deal with those good friends43. which of the following friends is a “jane”?a. he/she keeps a balance between life and work and lives an energetic life b. he/she always lives up to your expectation and keeps his/her wordsc. he/she has been together with you in difficulties and sufferingsd. he/she has been honest enough to point out your mistakes in time44. the underlined word “indebted” in paragraph 7 is closet in meaning to .a. interested b. embarrassedc. guilty d. grateful45. the purpose of the passage is to .a. share with you the writers opinions on how to make friendsb. pour out the writers concerns about some friendsc. express the writers gratitude to her true friendsd. convey some common embarrassing conflicts with friendsbwhether youre in the mood for poetry, essay, or fictionthe recommendations below include some examples of classics perfectly suited for november!“mont blanc” (1817) by percy shelleyin this, one of shelleys most famous poems, the poet is investigating problems of mental freedom and self-positioning. the awe and wonder of nature, as a projection(投影) of the minds own limitless power, is an appropriate theme for this time of year.we can, perhaps, think about our place in the universe as we watch the leaves turn, listen to the wind blow, and prepare for the “snowy, and peaceful” moments to arrive in coming months.“such as a feeble brook will often assume, in the wild woods, among the mountains lone, where waterfalls around it leap for ever, where woods and winds contend, and a vast river over its rocks ceaselessly bursts and raves.”(lines 7-11)“walden” (1854) by henry david thoreau“walden” combines autobiography with social critique(社会批判). it is partly a memoir(回忆录) of thoreaus experience living in a place not too far from town. the book explores themes of self-reliance, simplicity, and progress while criticizing consumerism(用户至上主义) and contemporary western culture. we might wonder about reading a book about “living in nature” at a time when the months are becoming colder, but the “comfort” of walden, the reflection as well as the ease it inspires are perfect for this time of year.“i went to the woods because i wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if i could not learn what it had to teach, and.”“the eve of st. agnes”(1820) by john keats“the eve of st. agnes” is a long poem. it was written in 1819 but not published until 1820. it is widely considered to be amongst his finest poems and was influential in 19th century literature.although the poem refers to the evening before st. agness day (january 20th), readers (especially in the northern hemisphere) may appreciate experiencing this one on a chilly night, perhaps one of the first of the mid-autumn season.“st. agnes eveah, bitter chill it was!the owl, for all his feathers, was a-cold; the hare limpd trembling through the frozen grass, and silent was the flock in woolly fold”“oliver twist” (1838) by charles dickenstheres just something about dickens that makes you want to read him in the autumn. it may be too early for a book like “a christmas carol” (1843), but “oliver twist” is perfect for late-november reading. the story introduces us to a sickly orphaned boy living in an english workhouse. oliver, weak and hungry, dares to ask for more food. for this insolence, hes exiled and must suffer various hardships before finally finding solace with a caring family.“although i am not disposed to maintain that being born in a workhouse, is, in itself the most fortunate and enviable circumstance that can possibly befall a human being, i do mean to say that in this particular instance, it was the best thing for oliver twist that”46. according to the passage, reading “mont blanc” can help us _.a. learn something about the miserable life of an orphanb. appreciate experiencing the atmosphere of chilly nightsc. try to find our own position in this worldd. inspire us to experience living simply and easily47. which of the following statements is true according to the passage?a. both mont blanc and the eve of saint agnes are not collections of poemsb. “walden” (1854) by henry david thoreau was intended for naturalistsc. “the eve of st. agnes” by keats was written much later than a christmas carol by dickensd. all the works were produced in november48. for each masterpiece, the added original lines and sentences aim to _.a. tell something about the background of the workb. introduce the writing style of the workc. keep the readers more informed about the writerd. help the readers have a taste of the masterpieces 49. the four masterpieces are arranged _.a. according to timeb. at random c. in the order of the lettersd. according to influencecreading, unlike speaking, is a young activity to some degree. humans have been speaking in some form for hundreds of thousands of years; we are born with the ability to acquire speech. the earliest writing, however, came only 6,000 years ago, and every act of reading remains a version of what my son is learning: identifying letters and words, use much the same of brain as we use to identify trees, cars, animals and telephone boxes.its not only letters and words that we process as objects. texts themselves, so far as our brain is concerned, are physical landscapes. so it is not surprising that we respond differently to words printed on a page compared to words appearing on a screen.for her new book, words onscreen: the fate of reading in a digital world, professor naomi baron conducted a survey of reading preference among over 300 universities across the world. when given a choice between media ranging from printouts to smart phones, laptops, desktops and e-readers, 92% of the respondents replied that it was hard copy that best allowed them to concentrate.this isnt a result likely to surprise many editors, or anyone else who works closely with text. while writing this article, i gathered my thoughts through a version of the same principle: having collected and checked my notes onscreen, i printed said notes, wrote all over the resulting printout, argued with myself in the margins, placed marks next to key points and then draw my own clear conclusion.across three experiments in 2013, researchers pam mueller and daniel oppenheimer compared the effectiveness of students taking hand-notes versus typing onto laptops. their conclusion: the relative slowness of writing by hand demands heavier mental lifting, forcing students to sum up rather than to quote, therefore tending to increase the students ability of understanding, applying, and memorizing.in other words, reading from paper is goodat least as far as the brain is concerned. moreover, the handwriting itself can be significant. in a 2012 study at indiana university, professor karin james tested five-year-old children who didnt know how to read or write by asking them to reproduce a letter or a shape in one of the three ways: typed on to the computer, drawn on a blank sheet, or copied over dotted lines. when the children were drawing freehand, their brain had the similar activities to adults reading and writing. the other two methods showed no such brain activities. similar effects have been found in other tests, suggesting not only a close link between reading and writing, but that the experience of reading itself differs between letters learned through handwriting and those learned through typing. a conclusion was drawn that handwriting tends to lift up our brain more than the placeless, weightless scrolling of words on screen.however, there is also a scientific recognition that many of the screens advantagessearch, boundless and bottomless capacity, links and leaps and seamless navigationare either unhelpf
