His life with her was full of great happiness, as he wrote in his diary: “My own happiness in the past often approached such joy that I could share it even with the person dearest to me but had to walk it away in quiet streets and take down parts of it in my diary.”

This side of paradise, his first novel, was published in 1920. Encouraged by its success, Fitzgerald began to devote more time to his writing.

During my second month of nursing school, our professors gave us a quiz. I had smoothly finished the others' questions when I got stuck on the last one: "What’s the first name of the woman who clean the school?" I had seen, many times, the woman, tall and in her fifty, but how could I know her name? I handed in my paper, leave the last question blankly. After a class ended, one student asked for the answer for the question. The professor said, "As you know, that in your careers you will meet many people. You should respect them and care about them, even you just smile and say ‘hello’ to them.

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

Actually, long-distance bicycle camping is one of the most pleasurable activities I have ever experienced.
I generally sleep poorly at night, but in the woods on a tour, I sleep like a baby, falling asleep with the music of insects. In the morning, I am awakened by the cheeps of birds. I eat a snack before getting up, and then I quickly pack my sleeping bag, air mattress (墊), tent, and other things and get on with my road. I'm slower in the morning, having less speed but a greater desire to stop at pleasant spots and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Traveling by bike allows me to stop anywhere, such as grasslands, lakes, woods, and scenic spots. Near lunch, I find a small grocery and buy some bread, sandwiches and fruit. Then I will find a town park or other shady spots to wait out the high mid-day sun. In the afternoon, my speeds are higher, and I spend less time on stops. In the late afternoon, I start riding more slowly, and I start thinking about where I will stop. I finally find a place in the early evening, cook a simple meal and have a rest. As it starts to get dark, I put up my tent, crawl in and fall asleep.
There are exciting times and difficult times as well. Visiting strange or famous places and accomplishing goals are always exciting to me. I meet and talk with interesting people along the way, sometimes other traveling cyclists. Appreciating beautiful views, meeting wild animals, and traveling up and down hills also. On the other hand, I may run into a rainy or hot spell(一段時(shí)間), have to repair my bike, or just find myself in a bad mood. The problems are infrequent and are easy to deal with. The pleasures remain in my mind for years.

Stephen Hawking is perhaps the world's most famous living physicist. To the public, he's best known as an author of bestsellers such as The Universe in a Nutshell and A Brief History of Time, which have brought an appreciation of theoretical (理論上的) physics to millions. He is regarded as having one of the brightest minds on the planet. But outstanding astrophysicist (天體物理學(xué)家) Stephen Hawking has admitted that he did not learn to read until he was eight years old.
In a public lecture at the Royal Albert Hall, Professor Hawking also admitted that he was not active in studying while at Oxford University, where he studied physics, and that only the news that he might die young from motor neurone (運(yùn)動(dòng)神經(jīng)元) disease made him focus on his work.
Professor Hawking said, “My sister Philippa could read by the age of 4 but then she was brighter than me.” He said that he was common at school and was never further than halfway up his class. “My classwork was very untidy, and my handwriting was very bad in the teachers' eyes,” he said. “But my classmates gave me the name Einstein, so probably they saw signs of something better.”
But he said that it was when doctors told him that he probably only had a few years to live at the age of 21 that he began to focus on his work, which resulted in some of his early achievements. He said, “When you are faced with the possibility of an early death, it makes you realize that life is worth living and there are lots of things you want to do.” Hawking serves as Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge, where he continues to contribute to both high-level physics and the popular understanding of our universe.
（1）When Stephen Hawking studied in Oxford University, he was ________ .
A.clever
B.lazy
C.bright
D.mean
（2）What made Stephen Hawking devote himself to his work?
A.Patience.
B.Knowledge.
C.Disease.
D.Laziness.
（3）From whom did Hawking get a fair judgment when he was at school?
A.His sister.
B.His classmates.
C.His teachers.
D.His parents.
（4）What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Hawking didn't realize his dreams in physics.
B.Hawking succeeded in overcoming the fear of an early death.
C.The purpose of the doctor was to encourage him to work hard.
D.The doctor warned Hawking that his life might be taken away by hard work.

【題目】A ban on smoking in public places has come into force in China—home to a third of the world’s smokers.

The move is aimed at controlling the number of deaths from smoking-related diseases*running at a million a year.

But the rules have been criticized, because they do not include punishments for those who choose to ignore them.

Many business owners hate rules that force them to ban smoking on their premises (經(jīng)營場所) because many customers do not like the rules and complain.

The rules do not allow smoking in places like restaurants, hotels, railway stations or theatres, but not at the office.

Employers have a duty to warn staff off the dangers of smoking but do not have to forbid them from lighting up at their desks.

Shanghai introduced similar rules a year ago, but people do not seem to take much notice of them. Often you find people smoking at the next table while you are eating your meal or having a drink in a bar. The problem is that the rules do not include punishments for businesses or individuals who ignore them.

It appears that many Chinese people are unaware of the dangers of smoking. Research suggests that only one in four knows the harm cigarettes of second-hand smoking can cause.

Officials say they have to try to persuade people not to smoke to reduce the numbers dying from smoking-related diseases.

At the same time the government makes a lot of money from the sales of cigarettes by the state- owned firm that makes and sells all tobacco products throughout the country.

【1】The number of smokers in China makes up about of the world’s smokers.

A. 66% B. 44%

C. 33% D. 55%

【2】We can replace the underlined part in the passage with .

A. are concerned about B. are curious about

C. don’t know D. don’t care

【3】1f the government wants to ban smoking in public places, .

A. only rely on educating people

B. take more effective measures

C. do punish those who ignore the rules

D. let people know more about the dangers of smoking
