OneYou must have been troubled by when to say I love you because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life.What if you say it first and your partner doesn t love you back?orif they do say. it but you dont feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be nerver racking(紧张）and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesn t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand fast?A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal, says psychologist Sidney Crown. But love is seldom equal. All. relationships go through power struggles but, he says, if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in. That feeling of I ve always loved you more may be subverted(颠覆，破坏) for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in squabbling(大声争吵). In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings, says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative. In fact, the person who says I love you first may also be the one who says I m bored with you first. Hall believes that much depends on how I love you is said and the motivation of the person saying it. Is it said when they re drunk? Is it said. before their partner files off on holiday, and what it really means is Please don t be unfaithful to me ? By saying I love you, they really saying Do you love me? If so, wouldnt it just be more honest to say mat.Collins agrees that intention is everything. Its not what is said, but how it s said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker.”51.

Text 2 参考译文你一定曾经为何时说“我爱你”而烦恼过，因为这是我们生活中的一大难题。如果你先说“我爱你”而对方却不回应，或者对方也这么说但你觉得他或她并非当真，那该怎么办?如你先说爱一个人，会让人紧张，而且也很冒险，它会让你觉得像没了硬壳的海龟那样容易受到伤害。但先说出口的人真的是处于劣势吗?隐而不宣，冷静地等待，让对方采取主动会更好吗?“真正良好的两性关系应该是合理平等的”，心理学家悉德尼克朗说，“但爱情很少是平等的。”所有的两性关系都会有权力的斗争，但是，他说，如果爱情失去平衡，那么数年之后就会开始出现问题。“我对你的爱更多的情况暂时不再继续，但这种感觉却不会消失，且常常会在争吵中出现。”至少在爱情上，沉默含蓄的那种类型并不总是最强有力的。“两性关系中最强大的一方常常是感觉自信能说出自己的感受的人。”教育心理学家因格瑞柯林斯说。性心理治疗学家波拉霍尔赞同说，“占上风的常常是采取主动的人。实际上，先说我爱你的人往往也是先说我讨厌你的人。”霍尔认为，很大程度上取决于说“我爱你”的方式和说话人的动机。“他们是在喝醉时说的吗?是在对方乘飞机渡假前说的吗?而其真正的含义是请一定要对我忠诚?是不是表面上说：我爱你，而真正想说的却是你爱我吗?如果这样，直截了当地说不是更诚实吗?”考林也认为你的动机决定一切。“重要的不在于说话内容而在于说话的方式。归根到底是说话人的真诚。”答案及解析51C【解析】这篇文章主要讲述的是说“我爱你”的时机，是采取主动还是处于被动，以及说话者的动机。52D【解析】“You must have been troubled by when to say I love you because it is oneof the greatest puzzles in our life”也就是说人们为何时说“我爱你”而烦恼。53A【解析】见第三段的“A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal”。54C【解析】此题是词义解析，意思是“占了上风”。55A【解析】从第三段末考林的话语中可以分析出来是你的动机决定一切。“重要的不在于说话内容而在于说话的方式。归根到底是说话人的真诚。”TwoGoing shopping seems easy but actually it takes a lot of learning, especially in American. In the fact, many Americans who are not so well-off often shop at “sales” or at special stores that sell things at low prices, which you may find interesting. In American, the important rule of dressing is that one should change hisher clothes every day. For example, in an American college, neither professors nor students are seen in the same clothes two days in a row. So you may find it necessary to buy more clothes than China. While you are shopping in the States, you will discover that prices range considerablely from time to time. The purchase of used, second-hand clothing, furniture, or other household articles may be an excellent way of saving money. Most second-hand clothes are often pretty good quality. If you are going to settle down in the states and want some furniture, you may go to a “loan closet”, where furniture rents at low costs, or you may also go to a “furniture exchange” place in the community.Sheets, blankets and other bedclothes go on sale in most communities twice a year. Advertisements for “white sales”, that is, sales on bed linen, towels, ets., often appear in January, as well as in May, June or July. Once or twice every season, there will be “garage sales”, where you can get almost anything, from a yacht to a pair of shoes, at low prices. Prices at “discount stores” and “thrift shops” are also as low as you can imagine.56. Shopping in the United States . A. seems easy for Americans. B. require some learning. C. is very easy for foreigners. D. is only for “well-off” people.57. Americans change their clothes daily, because . A. clothes are sold at low prices. B. people take it as a rule. C. they enjoy doing so.D. everyone is very “well-off”.58. People shopping in American will discover . A. American goods are excellent. B. most clothes come from China. C. prices vary much sometimes. D. used clothes are of poor quality. 59. A person who needs furniture can . A. exchange their goods for furniture. B. settle in a place that has furniture. C. get some free of charge.

It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving-away makes life so much more exciting. You need not worry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving-away. If an idea for improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made about giving-away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a post-office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard our conversation. “Wasnt it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?” I said yes. “Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. You dont know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints.”像大多数人，我长大看待生命是一个过程获得。直到我在30月底，我作出这一重要发现：给予，距离使我们的生活如此更令人兴奋的。您不必担心如果缺乏资金。这是我尝试让-消失。如果一个主意，可以改善窗口显示一个闪烁附近商店给我，我的步骤，并提出上述建议的仓库保管员。一发现我付出，离开是，它几乎是不可能放弃任何在这个世界上，没有得到回报，尽管返回往往在一个意想不到的形式。一个星期天上午，当地邮局作了重要特别的递送信件到我家里，但给我在我的办公室。我写了一份说明邮政的赞赏。一年多后，我需要一个后Office中的一个新的业务，我开始。我被告知的窗口，没有框的左边，我的名字将不得不在很长的等候名单。当我正准备离开，邮政出现在门口。他听到我们的交谈。 “是不是你，我们该信中写道：一年前为客户提供一份特别的递送到您的家？ ”我说是的。 “嘿，你肯定将会有一个盒子在这个邮政局如果我们要取得一个适合您。你不知道什么样的信，这意味着给我们。我们通常会只是投诉。题目的答案：ACBCD，题目不祥。FourAs a kid, Kacey Long would dream of becoming a professional woman.

At present, we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the problem is literally worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may be infected by air pollution. Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels （coal and oil） is creating a “greenhouse effect” conserving heat reflected from the earth and raising the worlds average temperature. If this view is correct and the worlds temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be in water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earths temperature a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would mane agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen （though one recent government report drafted by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible） Perhaps, if we are lucky enough, the two tendencies will offset each other and the worlds temperature will stay about the same as it is now. Driven by economic profits, people neglect the damage on our environment caused by the “advanced civilization”. Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development. But is it really worthwhile?56. As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution _. A cause widespread damage in the countryside B affected the entire eastern half of the United States C had damaged effect on health D existed merely in urban and industries areas57. As to the greenhouse effect, the author _. A share the same view with the scientist. B is uncertain of its occurrence C rejects it as being ungrounded D thinks that it will destroy the world soon58. The word “offset” in the second paragraph could be replaced by _. A slip into B make up for C set up D catch up with59. It can be concluded that _. A raising the worlds temperature only a few degrees would not do much harm to life on earth. B lowering the worlds temperature merely a few degrees would lead major farming areas to disaster.C almost no temperature variations have occurred over the past decade.D the worlds temperature will remain constant in the years to come.60. This passage is primarily about _.Athe greenhouse effect B the burning of fossil fuelsC the potential effect of air pollution. D the likelihood of a new ice age.56. D 由第一段第一句话可推知。57. B 第一段最后一句“If this view is correct ”表明作者只是引用这种现象并不确定其正确性。58. B offset补偿, make up for弥补, set up建立, catch up with赶上59. B 根据第二段第二句话“A drop of just a few degrees ”可推知。60. C 文章是在讨论大气污染给人类带来的潜在影响。SixEuropes Gypsies, Are They a NationThe striving of countries in Central Europe to enter the European Union may offer an unprecedented chance to the continents Gypsies (or Roman) to be recognized as a nation, albeit one without a defined territory. And if they were to achieve that they might even seek some kind of formal placeat least a total population outnumbers that of many of the Unions present and future countries. Some experts put the figure at 4m-plus; some proponents of Gypsy rights go as high as 15m.Unlike Jews, Gypsies have had no known ancestral land to hark back to. Though their language is related to Hindi, their territorial origins are misty. Romanian peasants held them to be born on the moon. Other Europeans (wrongly) thought them migrant Egyptians, hence the derivative Gypsy. Most probably they were itinerant metal workers and entertainers who drifted west from India in the 7th century.However, since communism in Central Europe collapsed a decade ago, the notion of Romanestan as a landless nation founded on Gypsy culture has gained ground. The International Romany Union, which says it stands for 10m Gypsies in more than 30 countries, is fostering the idea of “self-rallying”. It is trying to promote a standard and written form of the language; it waves a Gypsy flag (green with a wheel) when it lobbies in such places as the United Bations; and in July it held a congress in Prague, The Czech capital. Where President Vaclav Havel said that Gypsies in his own country and elsewhere should have a better deal.At the congress a Slovak-born lawyer, Emil Scuka, was elected president of the International Tomany Union. Later this month a group of elected Gypsy politicians, including members of parliament, mayors and local councilors from all over Europe (OSCE), to discuss how to persuade more Gypsies to get involved in politics.*以下部分老师未给出*The International Romany Union is probably the most representative of the outfits that speak for Gypsies, but that is not saying a lot. Of the several hundred delegates who gathered at its congress, few were democratically elected; oddly, none came from Hungary, whose Gypsies are perhaps the worlds best organized, with some 450 Gypsy bodies advising local councils there. The union did, however, announce its ambition to set up a parliament, but how it would actually be elected was left undecided.So far, the European Commission is wary of encouraging Gypsies to present themselves as a nation. The might, it is feared, open a Pandoras box already containing Basques, Corsicans and other awkward peoples. Besides, acknowledging Gypsies as a nation might backfire, just when several countries, particularly Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic, are beginning to treat them better, in order to qualify for EU membership. “The EUs whole premise is to overcome differences, not to highlight them,” says a nervous Eurocrat.But the idea that the Gypsies should win some kind of special recognition as Europes largest continent wide minority, and one with a terrible history of persecution, is catching on . Gypsies have suffered many pogroms over the centuries. In Romania, the country that still has the largest num
