1. 请根据短文内容判断给出的语句是否正确，正确的在括号内写(T)，错误的在括号内写(F)。

I’ve been living in the country for more than 10 years. It means quietness, privacy, harmony and peace for me.
Living in the country requires an active lifestyle. It involves activities like doing daily chores, preparing firewood for winter heating, feeding animals including pets and livestock, tending the garden, or securing fences, etc. For me, the most attractive activities are fishing, hunting and hiking. I enjoy seeing what nature has to offer everyday through a simple walk down the little trail, or a relaxing drive along the country road with patches of green grass ornamented with wildlife sightings of birds, moose, bears, deer, etc.
Living the country life helps us appreciate some of the simpler things, things that make us feel good about ourselves and the world. It may be just a get-together on a Saturday at the local farmers market, or a project or a problem that the community might pull together to help solve. I have participated in a few community projects, like dealing with out-of-control grass fires, a roof that collapsed from a large snow fall, or even helping a recent widow with fire wood for the winter. Sometimes I am surprised by how much benefit we receive from helping others and as for this
community I can’t say enough.
I really enjoy living the country life. I know it’s not for everyone, but I know it’s for me.

阅读下列短文，从A、B、C三个选项中选出一个正确答案。

The celebration of International Women’s Day (IWD) in 2011 was special as it marked the 100th anniversary of IWD. The United Nations’ theme for the 2011 IWD was “Equal access to education, training and science and technology: Pathway to decent work for women”.
One hundred years ago, gender equality and women’s empowerment were largely radical ideas. One hundred years later, there has been significant progress in women’s empowerment and participation through determined advocacy, practical action and enlightened policy making. However, in too many countries and societies, women’s social position is still low and lots of women are still trapped by poverty, discrimination, unemployment, illiteracy and violence.
As a basic human right, education is a key driver of economic growth and social change and the basis of women’s empowerment. The global economy is increasingly knowledge-driven, and requires an educated workforce able to apply the existing technology and to develop new science and technologies to combat poverty and adapt to emerging issues.
As education is the key to greater empowerment for women, investing in women and girls through the education sector has therefore a positive effect on the well-being of their families, their communities and nations. Strengthening the bridges between education, training, science and technology and the labor market is important in order to promote equal opportunity to decent employment for women.
(1). 2011 International Women’s Day (IWD) was special because________.
A it is the beginning of women’s equality.
B it is 100th anniversary.
C women got too much rights in that day
参考答案：B
(2). ___________ is a key factor of economic growth and social change and the women’s empowerment.
A Equality
B Family responsibility
C Education
参考答案：C
(3). Which of the following is not suffered by women in society nowadays?
A poverty
B unemployment
C family burden
参考答案：C
(4). Which one is NOT mentioned in relation to “education equality”?
A pathway to decent work for women
B development of new science
C women’s empowerment.
参考答案：B
(5). What is the best title for the passage?
A Creating Equal Access to Education

范文2
The Education We Need
There are various ways to get better education. We may go to school to receive formal education. We may attend some training classes. Of course, we may also study ourselves. Self-study is very convenient for us to manage. First of all, we know exactly what we want, so that we can arrange whatever we need. Secondly, self-study is especially helpful for those who have already had a job to deal with. The time for them to study is much more flexible.
However, it is not easy to carry out self-study for common people. We may stop our study when we are not strong-willed enough. Anyway, studying needs time and energy, we may have enough excuses to give it up. Besides, we may also stop our study because we cannot find someone to help us solve the problems we meet. All in all, we should have strong will and need some tutor if possible to make our study efficient.

The Education We Need
Education needs to cultivate a person's wisdom, exploration spirit and a kind of complete freedom. Only when these things are possessed, can people be free from fear and anxiety, so as to truly get human thoughts, harmonious relations and love.

The significance of education is to make people understand the responsibilities and obligations of human society as a person. Only when one understands one's own responsibilities and obligations can one have the premise of becoming a useful person, and only when one completes his own responsibilities and obligations can one become a useful person. This is the purpose of education. The responsibility and obligation of a person is the main content of education.。
