mind couldnt deal with any more foreign timetables, currencies or languages.“never_again，” i said, as i stepped onto home ground. i said exactly the same thing the following year. and the next. all i had to do was to buy one train ticket and, because i was under twentyfive years old, i could spend a whole month going anywhere i wanted in europe. ordinary beds are never the same once youve learnt to sleep in the corridor of a train, the rhythm rocking you into a deep sleep.carrying all your possessions on your back in a rucksack (背包) makes you have a very basic approach to travel, and encourages incredible wastefulness that can lead to burning socks that have become too antisocial (不合群的)，and getting rid of books when finished. on the other hand, this_way_of_looking_at_life is entirely in the spirit of interrail, for common sense and reasoning can be thrown out of the window along with the paperback book and the socks. all it takes to achieve this carefree attitude is one of those tickets in your hand.any system that enables young people to travel through countries at a rate of more than one a day must be pretty special. on that first trip, my friends and i were at first unaware of the possibilities of this type of train ticket, thinking it was just an inexpensive way of getting to and from our chosen campsite in southern france. but the idea of nonstop travel proved too attractive, for there was always just one more country over the border, always that little bit further to go. and what did the extra miles cost us? nothing.we were not completely uninterested in culture. but this was a first holiday without parents, as it was for most other interrailers, and in organizing our own timetable we left out everything except the most immediately available sights. this was the chance to escape the guided tour, an opportunity to do something different.i took great pride in the fact that, in many places, all i could be bothered to see was the view from the station. we were just there to get by, and to have a good time doing so. in this we were not different from most of the other interrailers with whom we shared corridor floors, food and water, money and music.the excitement of travel comes from the sudden reality of somewhere that was previously just a name. it is as if the city in which you arrive never actually existed until the train pulls in at the station and you are able to see it with your own tired eyes for the first time.16at the end of his first trip, the writer said “never again” because_.ahe fell illbhe disliked trainsche was tired from the journeydhe had lost money17what does the writer mean by “this way of looking at life” in paragraph 3?aworrying about your clothes.bthrowing unwanted things away.cbehaving

foreverdhe could make his own decisions20what does the underlined word “it” in the last sentence of paragraph 6 refer to?aa name. bthe city.cthe train. dthe station. b 2011山东卷arthur miller(19152005)is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. millers father had moved to the usa from austriahungary，drawn like so many others by the “great american dream”. however, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the great depression of the early 1930s.millers most famous play, death of a salesman, is a powerful attack on the american system，with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. in willy loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with this system. willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment: if he cant do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the wagner company, and he must go. willy is painfully aware of this, and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success. he refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.when it was first staged in 1949，the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews，and it won the tony award for best play，the new york drama critics circle award，and the pulitzer prize for drama.it was the first play to win all three of these major awards.miller died of heart failure at his home in roxbury，connecticut，on the evening of february 10,2005，the 56th anniversary of the first performance of death of a salesman on broadway.21. why did arthur millers father move to the usa?a. he suffered from severe hunger in his home country.b. he was attracted by the “great american dream”che hoped to make his son a dramatist.

you或以某种形式表示感谢时，一定要高兴，因为它是一份“礼物”。13b根据语境可知，要让自己高兴，并与别人分享自己的快乐。14a有时，当别人没有按照你的方式行事时，原谅他们15a去掉了这些不切合实际的期望，你就会马上体会到更多的幸福与快乐。.a作者向我们描述了自己欧洲之旅的所见所闻以及感受。16c推理判断题。 第一段描述了此次旅游：dirty, smelly, hungry and
