【題目】I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg last night, a distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I was clinching (緊握) my fists with impatience.

At one point along an open highway, I came to a crossroads with the traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I approached the light, it turned red and I braked to stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of headlights, but there I sat, waiting for' the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile in any direction.

I started wondering why I refused to run the light. I was not afraid of being arrested, because there were obviously no police around, and there certainly would have been no danger in going through it.

Much later that night, the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think I stopped because it's part of an agreement we all have with each other. It's not only the law, but it's an agreement we have, and we trust each other to honor it: we don't go through red lights.

It's amazing that we ever trust each other to do the right thing, isn't it? And we do, too. Trust is our first tendency. We have to make a deliberate decision to mistrust someone or to be suspicious or skeptical. Those attitudes don't come naturally to us.

It's a very good thing too, because the whole structure of our society depends on mutual trust, not distrust. This whole thing around us would fall apart if we didn't trust each other most of the time. We do what we say we'll do; we show up when we say we'll show up; we deliver when we say we'll deliver; and we pay when we say we'll pay. We trust each other in these matters, and when we don't do what we've promised, it's far from the normal. It happens often that we don't act in good faith and in a trustworthy manner, but we still consider it unusual, and we're angry or disappointed with those badly-behaved people. Anyway I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night.

【1】Why did the author feel impatient while driving?

A. Because he had already driven for a long time.

B. Because it was too far away from his destination.

C. Because something urgent happened in his family.

D. Because he could not overpass a truck on a narrow road.

【2】The author stopped at the traffic light because .

A. there were passers-by crossing the road

B. some policemen were on duty just at that point

C. the trust between people influenced the author

D. there was potential danger

【3】What would happen if people didn't trust each other in most cases?

A. A11 the things would run normally.

B. The social system would be thrown into disorder.

span>C. The social traditions would be abandoned.

D. Strict rules and laws would be made.

【4】What is the theme of the passage?

A. Mutual Trust is the best policy.

B. A bird in hand is worth two in the bush.

C. Actions speak louder than words.

D. Among the blind the one-eyed is the king.

【題目】Valerie Jarrett, 58, is serving as a top adviser to President Obama and has been close to the first family since the early 1990s. Joe Heim from WashingtonPost had an interview with her.

Joe Heim: What do you think of a reporter who interviews you for 25 minutes, then later finds out his recorder stopped working and asks you to do the interview again?

Valerie Jarrett: That he's human. You could have just tried to pretend that it didn't happen.

Joe Heim: You're considered the president's closest adviser. Have you ever given him bad advice since he became president?

Valerie Jarrett: I'm sure that I have. I think one of the reasons why the president's management style is very effective is because all of his advisers feel very comfortable being open about their advice. Finally, there's only one decision-maker. And that's the president.

Joe Heim: What misunderstandings are there of you?

Valerie Jarrett: A little-known fact is that I started my life very shy and remained very shy well into adulthood. Painfully shy, I would call it. And I often share this, particularly with young people, because it's something I really had to work hard to overcome. And for all the shy people out there I say, you, too, can overcome it. But it took a lot of hard work on my part, and I discovered along the way that just because you're nervous and you have butterflies in your stomach doesn't mean that it has to show. My point in sharing it with you is that part of life is pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone (舒適區(qū)). And if you're going to grow, you have to learn how to take on new challenges that you might not be good at.

Joe Heim: Will you stay until the end of his term?

Valerie Jarrett: I serve at the pleasure of the president. If he wants me to stay, I will.

【1】From the underlined words “That he's human”, we can learn Valerie Jarrett is _____.

A. warm-hearted B. broad-minded

C. well-educated D. strong-willed

【2】Why does Valerie Jarrett share her shyness?

A. To show her hard way to success.

B. To prove shy people can also be great.

C. To show it is easy to overcome shyness.

D. To ask people to face challenges bravely.

【3】In which part of a newspaper could we find this text?

A. People. B. Society. C. World. D. Culture.

【題目】It happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was ,in his words, “a wonderfully written book ”. however, he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all .I felt that I was talking to a book liar.

And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t .In the World Book Day’s “Report on Guilty（愧疚的） Secrets”, Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books, and various authors, which people have lied about reading, and as I’m not one to lie too often (I’d hate to be caught out ),I’ll admit here and now that I haven’t read the entire top ten .But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one ,George Orwell’s 1984.I think it’s really brilliant.

The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky(I haven’t read him, but haven’t lied about it either )and Herman Melville.

Asked why they lied, the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in –depth!

But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J.k. Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella(ah, the big sellers, in other words).Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story(I’ll come clean: I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).

【1】How did the author think of Dreams From My Father?

A. It was his favorite.

B. It made little sense.

C . He was very fond of it.

D. He totally had no idea.

【2】What can we learn from “Report on Guilty Secrets”?

A. 58% of people haven’t read 1984.

B. All of the listed authors are unknown.

C. Many people have ever lied about reading.

D. Dreams From My Father isn’t among the top ten.

【3】Why do people probably lie about reading?

A. To admire the writer.

B. To advertise the book.

C. To start a conversation.

D. To leave a good impression.

【4】What’s the tone (語(yǔ)氣) of the author in the article?

A. Very friendly.

B. A little humorous.

C. Rather confusing

D. Quite cautious.
