【題目】(每小題2分, 滿分10分) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容, 從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項, 并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

【1】 When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive（業(yè)務(wù)主管）gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs dance into view. The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 【2】 The first and most basic levels of wants involve 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 automobiles and 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 “life-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 “luxury”(奢侈) items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 【4】 On 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.

A simple life means getting rid of many of the things you do so that you can spend more time with people you love and do the things you love. 【1】 It’s often a journey of two steps forward and one backward.

Evaluate your time. 【2】 What things do you do from the time you wake up to the time you go to sleep? Make a list, and evaluate whether they’re in line with your priorities. If not, remove them and focus on what’s important. Redesign your day.

Limit your communications. Our lives these days are filled with a vast flow of communications: email, cell phones, paper mail, Twitter, forums, and more. 【3】 Instead, set a limit on your communications: only deal with emails at certain times of the day. Limit phone calls to certain times too. It is the same with other communications. Set a schedule and stick to it.

Try living without a car. OK, this isn’t something I’ve done, but many others have. 【4】 Walk, bike, or take public transportation. It reduces expenses and gives you time to think. A car is also very complicated, needing not only car payments, but insurance, maintenance, repairs, gas and more.

【5】 If you rid your home of stuff, you might find you don’t need so much space. I’m not saying you should live on a boat (although I know some people who happily do so), but if you can be comfortable in a smaller home, it will not only be less expensive, but easier to maintain, and greatly simplify your life.

A. Consider a smaller home.

B. Have a place for everything.

C. How do you spend your day?

D. It’s something I would do if I didn’t have kids.

E. They can take up your whole day if you let them be.

F. However, getting to simplicity isn’t always a simple process.

G. Most people don’t know what “enough” is, and thus they keep buying more.

The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot. 【1】

The origin of the eastern cultures is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers—the Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in India. 【2】

When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plain-the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. 【3】 Like the Chinese culture, the European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over, the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn’t distinguish from the European culture a lot.

【4】 Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race difference counts as well. But what's more, due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no-interference (干擾)from the other.

The differences are everywhere. 【5】 But different cultures make the world of 21st century more colorful. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle to the civilization of human being. It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.

A. Let us work together to keep a variety of culture.

B. One important thing is to learn about other cultures.

C. And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture.

D. At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.

E. This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.

F. They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.

G. They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.

Worry problems are everywhere in our daily life. How to solve them? The answer is that we must equip ourselves to deal with different kinds of worries by learning the three basic steps of problem analysis. The three steps are:

Get the facts

Why is it so important to get the facts? Unless you have the facts, you can’t possibly attempt to solve your problem intelligently. Without the facts, all you can do is wondering around in confusion. It is not an easy job to get facts. When you are worried, your emotions are riding high. 【1】 .

When trying to get the facts, you can pretend that you are collecting this information not for yourself but for some other person. _【2】. You can also pretend that you are a lawyer preparing to agree. Try to get all the facts both on your side and the other side of the case. You will generally find the truth lies somewhere in between.

【3】

Whenever you are worried, write down the questions that make you worry. And write out all the various steps you could take and then the probable consequences of each step. For example, what am I worrying about? What can I do about it? Here is what I’m going to do about it. After carefully weighing all the facts, you can calmly come to a decision.

Act on that decision.

【4】 . How can you break the worry habit before it breaks you? Crowd worry out of your mind by keeping busy. Plenty of action one of the best ways to cure worry 【5】. If you know a situation is beyond your power, say to yourself: “ It is so; it can’t be otherwise.” Don’t permit little things to ruin your happiness. Try to cultivate a mental attitude that will bring you peace and happiness.

A. Analyze the facts.

B. Accept what can’t be avoided.

C. But here are two ideas that can help you see the facts in a clear and objective way.

D. There comes a time when you must decide and never look back.

E. Unless you take your action, all your face-finding and analysis is a sheer waste of energy.

F. Decide how much anxiety a thing may be worth.

G. This will help you to take a cold and fair view of the evidence
