【題目】I was never neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her projects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both get tired of each other.

War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “ take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.

The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.

Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “thanks.”

Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together; giving in, cleaning up and holding on.

Dear Kate,

How are you? Today I’ve got a wonderful news to tell you. I have offered a scholarship at a university in Australia for my further educations. One hundred and twenty students took exams for it, but only a few was chosen and I was one of them. However, my parents are not happy about it. They are strong against me going there. They say it is too far away that they will not see me for a whole year and they are afraid of I will feel lonely. They can’t imagine a girl so young live alone. They advise me study in the capital instead. Then I’ll be able to continue living with them. How can I persuade them to accept the fact I have grown up?

Yours,

Jane

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

__【1】__When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view.

The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. __【2】__.

The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears：clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. __【3】__ It included such items as automobile sand new houses.

By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared：the “l(fā)ife－enriching”level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction－the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body－this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “l(fā)uxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. __【4】__

One this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?

A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. __【5】__In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.

A．Then a third level appeared.

B．Human wants seem endless.

C．When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.

D．There are several levels of wants in one's life.

E．At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure.

F．Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.

G．Different people have different wants on each level.

The Mayan Indians lived in Mexico for thousands of years before the Spanish arrived in the 1500s. The Maya were an intelligent, culturally rich people whose achievements were many. They had farms, beautiful palaces, and cities with many buildings. _【1】__ This knowledge helped them to live a better life than most people of that time, because they could use it to make their lives more comfortable and rewarding.

In ancient Mexico there were many small clearings in the forest. In each clearing was a village with fields of corn, beans, and other crops around it. To clear the land for farms, the Maya cut down trees with stone axes. They planted seeds by digging holes in the ground with pointed sticks. __【2】 But not every Maya had to be a farmer. Some were cloth makers, builders, or priests.

The Maya built large temples to honor the Mayan gods. Skillful workers built cities around these temples. Today, many of these ancient Mayan cities and temples are still standing.

Although the cities that the Maya built were beautiful, and the people worked hard to build them, very few of the people lived in them. Usually, only the priests lived in the cities. The other people lived in small villages in the forests. They lived in small huts with no windows. The walls were made of poles covered with dried mud, and the roof was made of grass or leaves. __【3】__.

Measuring time was important to the Maya. __【4】__ A system was developed for measuring time accurately. Mayan priests made the system to keep track of time. They made a calendar based on their study of the sun, moon and stars. The Mayan calendar was far more accurate than the European calendars of the time.

Around the year 800, the Maya left their villages and beautiful cities, never to return. __【5】__ They may have died from an infectious disease. They may have left because the soil could no longer grow crops. Scientists are still trying to find the lost secrets of the Maya. They are still one of our greatest mysteries.

A. No one knows why this happened.

B. Most Maya lived a simple life close to nature.

C. The Maya were an intelligent, culturally rich people.

D. Farmers needed to know when to plant and harvest their crops.

E. They had to fight against natural disasters as common occurrences.

F. One farmer was able to grow crops that produced food for several people.

G. The Mayan people knew a lot about nature and the world around them.
