Ⅲ.阅读理解
Today our life and work rarely feel light or pleasant.Instead, the whole experience of being alive begins to melt into huge responsibility. It becomes the standard greeting everywhere: I am so busy.
We say this to one another with no small degree of
pride.The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others. To be unavailable to our friends and family, to be unable to find time for the sunset, to speed through our responsibilities without time for a single mindful breath — this has become the model of a successful life.
Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We lose the nourishment (营养) that gives us help. We miss the quiet that gives us wisdom. Poisoned by the belief that good things come only through tireless effort, we never truly rest.
This is not the world we dreamed of when we were young.How did we get so terribly rushed in a world filled with work and responsibility, yet somehow lack of joy and delight?
We have forgotten the Sabbath (安息日). Sabbath is the time to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good — time to light candles, sing songs, tell stories, bless our children and loved ones, give thanks, share meals, nap and walk. It is time to be nourished and refreshed as we let our work, our chores and our important projects lie fallow, trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world when we are at rest.
Sabbath is more than the absence of work. Many of us, in our desperate drive to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, feel terribly guilty when we take time to rest.But the Sabbath has proven its wisdom over the ages. Many of us still recall when, not long ago, shops and offices were closed on Sundays.Those quiet Sunday afternoons remained in our cultural memory.
语篇解读：在如今这个社会中，人们一直以能成为成功人士而自豪，而成功人士的标准之一就是“忙”。

难道这真的是成功的标志吗？作者在文章中告诉我们，其实我们更应该享受休闲。

1．Nowadays, when we greet people by saying, “I am so busy”， we feel ________.
A．sorry B．proud
C．unhappy D．responsible
解析：细节理解题。

由第二段中的“We say this to one another with no small degree of pride”可知，当人们说自己很忙的时候，其实内心是有些自豪感的， no small degree 表示“不小的程度”，故选B项。

答案：B
2．If a person lives a successful life, he is expected ________.
A．to be always available to his family and friends
B．to be able to enjoy a leisure holiday
C．to be occupied with too many obligations
D．to become a model for everyone else
解析：推理判断题。

由第二段的第三句可推知，如果一个人成功，那就意味着他要承担更多的责任和义务，故C项正确。

答案：C
3．According to the author, we should do the following EXCEPT ________.
A．showing interest in beautiful things
B．having time to get refreshed
C．putting away obligations and resting when necessary
D．believing that good things come only through tireless effort
解析：事实细节题。

文章倒数第二段提到了A、B和C项，而D项“好事唯有通过不懈的努力才能获得”与文意不符，故选D。

答案：D
4．We should have Sabbath because ________.
A．it helps us get pleasure in our life
B．we cannot forget we are Christians
C．people don't have to work that day
D．it is embeded in our cultural memory
解析：推理判断题。

由倒数第二段中的“Sabbath is the time to en joy and celebrate ...”可知，安息日能让我们放松，身心愉悦，所以选A项。

答案：A。
