One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to hire. With the same money, one can get a large house in the country with a garden of ones own. Then in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend ones free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the reward of one who has shared the secret of Nature. Some people, however, take no interest in country things. For them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional(偶尔) walk in one of the Parks and a fortnights visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want; the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.56.

A. the rest time B. the rest people C. the rest of the country D. the rest of the parks and the sea B Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, especially their parents, don t know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice. It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in childrens growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members. However, parents often try to choose their childrens friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of choice is an interesting one. Have you ever thought of the following questions? Who choose your friends? Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you? Have you got a good friend your parents don t like?60.

Teenagers can only go to their friends for help.CAttention to details is something everyone can and should do especially in tight job market. Bob Crossley, a human resources expert notices this in the job applications that come across his desk every day. “Its amazing how many candidates cross out themselves,” he says. “Resumes (简历) arrive with faults. Some candidates dont bother to spell the companys name correctly. Once I see a mistake, “I cross out the candidates,” Crossley concludes. “If they cannot take care of these details, why should we trust them with a job?”Can we pay too much attention to details? Absolutely not. Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. “To stop losing the forest for the trees.” says Charles Garfield, the professor at the University of California, San Francisco, “We must constantly ask ourselves how the details were working on fit into the larger picture. If they dont, we should drop them and move to something else.”Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer scientist at NASA. “The Apollo II moon launch was slightly off course 90 percent of the time,” says Garfield. “But a successful landing was still likely because we knew the exact position of our goal. This allowed us to make adjustments as necessary.” Knowing where to go helps us judge the importance of every task we undertake.Too often we believe what accounts for others success is some special secret or a lucky break. But rarely is success so mysterious. Again and again, we see that by doing little things within our grasp well, large rewards follow.64According to the passage, some job applicants were rejected because . Athey failed to present resumes that are free of mistakes Bthey failed to give a detailed description of their background Cthey crossed out their names from the applicants list themselves Dtheir handwriting on the resume was hard to recognize65The third paragraph is intended to state that _. Atrees are as important as forests Bwe should pay too much attention to details Cwe shouldnt go too far in details to lose our goals Dperfectionists are capable of achieving perfect results66Which of the following is the authors advice to the readers? ACareless applicants should not be trusted. BAttention to details shouldnt be ignored CDont forget details after we finish something. DPay no attention to the details of a task before undertaking it.67The example of Apollo II moon launch is given to show that _ . Abig mistakes can be ignored Bfailure is the mother of success Cadjustments are the key to the successful completion of any work Dkeeping ones goal in mind helps decide which details can be ignoredD Yang Yongfang used to take the bus to work. But, these days, when she takes a look at the bus, all she sees is a big box full of people, all breathing in there. It seems very unsafe. And that means SARS. So Yang got out her bicycle and dusted it off. Other Chinese who, until recently, appeared to be moving away from the old mode of transportation, seem to be back riding as well. Of course, there s no shortage of bikes. There were plenty long before SARS showed up. But in recent years, private cars have been growing in large numbers, crowding bicycles off the streets in some of the biggest cities. Now SARS has brought the bicycle traffic back. Crowded trains and buses look less attractive(吸引人的). In Shanghai 120,000 more bicycles were registered(登记) in April, well above last years monthly average of 50,000. Peoples Daily recently reported that bicycle had suddenly become the third most frequently searched term on the nations largest Web search engine. However, if bike sales Continue upward, it could become a nightmare (噩梦) for traffic planners, who had to contend with the often deadly clash between bikes and motorized vehicles. Shanghai officially sees nearly one traffic - related bicycle death a day, a figure that many people here say is probably an understatement. (少报).68. Before SARS broke out, Yang Yongfang_. A. was tired of going to work by car B. went to work by bike C. had already sold her bike D. went to work by bus69. More and more people in Shanghai are beginning to ride, because _. A. riding a bike is much more convenient B. riding a bike costs less than taking the bus C. they care more about their health D. the government has been encouraging them to do exercise70. The writer of the passage _ the phenomenon (现象) that bike sales continue upward. A. is strongly against B. is for C. shows no opinion of D. is worried about71.What is the best title for the passage? A. Bikes Sell Well in Shanghai B. The New Fashion C. Back to Nature D. Shanghai Takes on a New Look E Perhaps the most famous theory, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Ray Birdwhistell. He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed. In other words, we learn our looks - we are not born with them. A baby has generally informed face features. A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around - family and friends. This helps explain why the people of some areas of the US look so much alike. New Englanders or Southerners have certain common face features that cannot be explained by genetics (遗传学). The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth are set. For many, this can be well into grown - ups. A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our looks from those around us. This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile most frequently. In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York State still less. Many Southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people on Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia. People in largely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less than people in small towns do.72. Ray Birdwhistell believes that physical appearance _.A. has little to do with cultureB. has much to do with cultureC. is ever changingD. is different from place to place73. According to the passage, the final mouth shape is formed _.A. before birthB. as soon as ones teeth are newly setC. some time after new teeth are set D. around 15 years old74. Ray Birdwhistell can tell what area of the United States a person is from by _.A. how much he or she laughsB. how he or she raises his or her eyebrowsC. what he or she likes bestD. the way he or she talks75.
