News of Hemingways death darkened the front pages of the most major newspapers including The New York Times. Hemingway was a man who truly enjoyed life. He made those around him enjoy life. When he could no longer enjoy his life, when his body failed him, when his gift for writing deserted him, he ended his life. This final act would add to the Hemingway mystery. Hemingways literature had always been influenced by tragedy. When reading his work, one notices an element almost always lacking: the happy ending. Not only could Hemingway describe life “as it is”, he was also good at describing life “as it is not”. Life is not a clichd bed of roses, a care-free world in which lovers walk hand in hand into a setting sunset. No, the sun also rises, and if its rays are too hot or too bright, or if it stays visible for too long, the roses will wilt and die. Hemingway never avoided exploring the tragedies of life, of death, of love. There is little doubt that the events in Hemingways fiction mirror the events in his life. Hemingways true talent, however, lies in his ability to construct fiction which is more realistic and truer than any life event could ever be. Every writer of fiction wishes to produce a similar construction. Many try. Many fail. Some succeed. Hemingway succeeded and he is still succeeding.41. Which was NOT one of the reasons why Hemingway killed himself? A. His health broke down. B. He was too old. C. He found he no longer had the gift for writing. D. He could not get pleasure from his life.42. In Hemingways eyes, life _. A. is full of pains B. is made up of roses C. contains a lot of tragedies D. should be ended by its owner43. According to the passage, Hemingway _. A. hasnt been a source of interest except for his fiction B. hadnt been famous before his death C. experienced many tragedies in his life D. failed to have his own way of constructing fiction44. We can infer from the article that the authors attitude towards Hemingway is being _. A. admiring B. jealous C. afraid D. criticalBDr Wiseman started “the laugh lab” project in September 2001. It is the largest study of humor. Participants are invited to log on to the laugh lab website, give a few personal details, tell their favorite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally discover the worlds funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose. The researchers want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humor. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh.This is a subject that has long interested psychologists（心理学家）and philosophers（哲学家）. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves.By December 2001 over 10, 000 jokes had been submitted. This gave the scientists enough evidence to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humor, for instance.“Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humor, ”said Dr. Wiseman. “Males use humor to appear superior（优越）to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer word play. ”Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humor. The British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humor”. But the French like their jokes short and sharp: “Youre a high priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for 500?” “Yes. Whats the second question?”The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humor. But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality. Perhaps that proves the point. Is this joke funny? I dont know, but lets say yes, just to be safe.Dr Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Perhaps this is relief. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny stuff to us.45. Scientist started “the laugh lab” project_A. to find the funniest joke in European countriesB. to know what funny people are from different nations and culturesC. to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humorD. to get more personal details about participants46. We can infer from the passage that_.A. most of the people all over the world are completely honestB. psychologists and philosophers take interest in the “laugh lab” projectC. ordinary people are not interested in “the laugh lab” project at allD. people tell the truth about themselves only when they laugh47. The writer gave the examples of the British, the French and the Germans_.A. to show that French people have a better sense of humorB. to prove the British people have a sense of “toilet humor”C. to show people from different nations have different senses of humorD. to prove that the Germans have no sense of humor 48. Which statement is true according to the passage?A. The jokes by computer are less funny than those by humans.B. The Germans cannot find the submitted jokes amusing.C. Males are better at word play compared with women.D. Females like to use humor to show that they are superior.CUnless humans act now, seafood may disappear by 2048, concludes the lead author of a new study that paints a grim picture for ocean and human health. According to the study, the loss of ocean biodiversity(生物多样性) is speeding up, and 29 percent of the seafood species that humans consume have already died out. If the long-term trend continues, in 30 years there will be little or no seafood available for human beings. The increasing pace of diversity loss thus endangers the “ecosystems services” that many human populations depend on for survival, the study says. The research also found that biodiversity loss is tightly linked to declining water quality, harmful algal blooms, ocean dead zones, fish kills, and coastal flooding. “Biodiversity is a limited resource, and we are going to end up with nothing left if nothing changes,” said Boris Worm, an assistant professor of marine conservation biology at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada. Worm led the international team of scientists and economists that examined the role of marine biodiversity in maintaining ecosystem services. “They examined the impact of species loss at local, regional, and global scales and in a variety of ecosystems. Everywhere they looked, they got the same result: The greater the loss of diversity, the greater the impact on ecosystem services. “The good news is that areas managed for improved diversity can and do recover, raising the possibility that the problem can be reversed (彻底改变) if humans take action.” Worm says, “Where we protect marine areas around the world we see an increase in species diversity. We also see more productivity as well as more money being earned from those ecosystems,” he said.49. What would be the best title for the text?A. Seafood promotes human healthB. Biodiversity is important for human survivalC. Ocean biodiversity is improvingD. The future of ecosystem services50. The word “grim” underlined in paragraph 1 most probably means _. A. horrible B. clear C. simple D. colorful 51. Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?A. The loss of biodiversity threatens our food supplies. B. Its urgent to save biodiversity in the coming 30 years. C. Biodiversity loss is closely related to flooding. D. Biodiversity loss has a great effect on ecosystem services. 52. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Biodiversity has been improved in a vast area of ocean. B. Its not so difficult to improve biodiversity. C. Theres no need to worry about the decline in biodiversity D. Its hopeful to improve biodiversity if action is taken. DIf I had known then what I know now , I would have taken my fathers advice when I was 18 and I had to choose my major at university. He told me to study outside Italy where there were more possibilities to find a job once I finished university. But I said no, scared of living alone in a different country with a different culture, with a different language, and above all, far from my family and friends. So I decided to go to university in Italy and I chose the one in Rome, my city, which is one of the most ancient universities in the world, studying Communication Science because it was the most common and the most fashionable major six years ago (and still is now.). At that age, I wanted to become a sports journalist, but with the passing time, my opinions and my ideas started changing and I understood that I didnt like my choice. At that time, I understood that at 18 years old, everyone feels mature to decide about his own future. Everyone thinks that the advice that parents try to give is wrong and we are able to decide alone, maybe just with the help of our friends who are in the same situation. This is the worst thought that we can think. However, I graduated last December with the pride of my parents and I decided, with their help, to come to Toronto and study English. Here I am living the best experience I have ever lived. I often think, If I had known that living alone in a different country and studying something I like were so nice and interesting when I was 18, I would have listened to what my father told me six years ago. I try to regret nothing about my choices I have made in my past, but I just think that now I am mature to ask my parents and to listen to them because they have more experience and they know better than me what is right and what is wrong.53. What can we learn about the writer from the passage?A. He went to Toronto in order to become a sports journalist. B. He studied English when he was in a university in Rome. C. He followed his parents advice when choosing a university. D. He is enjoying his stay in Toronto and his study of English.54. The underlined word mature in the passage means A. good and ripe B. confident enough C. carefully decided D. having a developed mind55. All the following are the reasons why the writer chose a university at home EXCEPT that_ A. he might meet cultural shock B. he couldnt speak a second language C. he wanted to study Communication Science D. he didnt want to be separated from his family and friends56. From his own experience the writer tries to tell us that A. parents advice is worth taking B. he still prefers to ask his friends for help C. he doesnt regret about the choices he made D. Communication Science is still fashionable now EMary Cochran went out of the rooms where she lived with her father, Dr. Lester Coehran, at seven oclock on a Sunday evening. It was June of the year 1988, and Mary was eighteen years old. She was walking along Tremont, lined with small shops and shabby houses, a rather quiet cheerless place on Sundays where there were few people about. She had told her father she was going to church but did not intend anything of the kind. She did not know what she wanted to do. I will get off by myself and think, she told herself as she walked slowly along. The night, she thought, promised to be too fine to spend sitting in a church and hearing a man talk of things that had nothing to do with her own problem.
