一个疑惑不解的小孩提的一个问题促使卡尔·格林思考：虽然他没有贵重的财物，但他在其他许多方面却是富有的。
富足的一生卡尔·格林首次面对这个问题，是在2003年12月初，我第一次为救世军摇铃募捐的时候。
当时我就站在沃尔玛商场入口处门外，对每一位向我的红壶里投入捐款的人都报以一声“谢谢”和一个微笑。
一位穿着整洁的妇人牵着她的幼子向放壶的台子走过来。
她在钱包里摸着找钱时，孩子抬头看了我一眼，问我：“你穷吗？”当时他眼里充满疑惑和好奇，时至今日仍历历在目。
“嗯，”我结结巴巴，边想边回答，“我比有些人拥有的多，但比其他人拥有的少。
”母亲因为孩子问了一个在社交上不该问的问题，训斥了他一顿，他俩便匆匆地赶去购物。
但是孩子的问题却一直在我的心头挥之不去。
我从不认为自己“穷”，但有些事我不可否认。
每当我填1040税务申报表时，我都属于收入最低的档次之一。
在过去的三十五年中，我只出去度过一次假。
我的电视机是黑白的，还是八年前别人送给我的。
然而，想要得到其他那么多人都有的物质的东西，对我来说，只不过是转瞬即逝的念头而已。
我的汽车是1999年的产品，到现在开了十万五千英里，已经很破很旧了，但是它依然可靠。
我的住房不大，但是很安静，住着挺舒心。
我的衣服很适合于我的工作，主要都在户外。
我对计算机的很少的需求，可以在图书馆得到解决。
尽管有些东西我没有，我并不感到贫穷。
这是为什么？五十三年来我一直非常健康。
我不但不生病，而且精力充沛，情绪饱满。
锻炼对我而言是确确实实的快事，我乐意长距离步行，越走越有劲。
我喜爱步行后随之产生的一种“什么都干得了”的心态。
我还十分珍惜我的创作才能。
当我写出美丽的诗句或编造出能把人逗乐的笑话时，我内心感到很富有。
通过写作而获得的洞察力，不断地令我惊奇。
而与那么多写作朋友交谈，是我乐趣的主要源泉之一。
但是在我生活中，有一个重要方面我并不那么富有。
在一个对物资财富的追求投入如此之多心力的社会中，我觉得很不自在。

Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once.A)What is love? Some people think it’s lifelong devotion. Others think it’s temporary madness. No matte r what, not that people think that love is not important. They are starved for it; they watch endless numbers of films about happy and unhappy love stories; they listen to hundreds of songs about love ?yet hardly anyone thinks that there is anything that needs to be learned about love.B)This particular attitude is based on several premises(前提) which either singly or collectively tend to give rise to it. Most people see the problem of love primarily as that of eing loved? rather than that of oving? of one capacity to love. In order to be loved, to be lovable, men try to get as rich, successful and powerful as their social positions permit; women are busily involved in making themselves attractive by working on their bodies, dresses, etc. Both men and women also develop pleasant manners, interesting conversation, to be helpful, modest and inoffensive(不冒犯人的).C) A second premise behind the attitude that there is nothing to be learned about love is the assumption that the problem of love is the problem of an bject? not the problem of a apacity? People think that to ove?is simple, but that to find the right object to love ?or to be loved by ?is difficult. There are several reasons behind it. One reason is the changed view of a ove object? Love no longer develops only after marriage is concluded as in traditional cultures. Romantic love, the personal experience of love, has become universal in modern culture. Freedom in love has greatly lifted the importance of the bject?D)Closely related to this reason is another characteristic of modern culture. Our culture is based on the appetite for buying, on the idea of a mutually(双方) favorable exchange. Modern man happiness lies in the excitement of looking at the shop windows, and in buying all that he can afford. He (or she) looks at people in a similar way. ttractive?is what men and women are after. It’s a package of qualities which are popular and wanted on the personality market. Two people fall in love when they have found the best object on the market.E)The third error leading to the attitude that there is nothing to be learned about love lies in the confusion(混淆) between the initial experience of alling?in love, and the permanent state of eing?in love. If two people who have been strangers suddenly let the wall between them break down, they feel close, feel one; this moment of oneness is one of the most exciting and wonderful experiences in life. However, this type of love is by its very nature not lasting. When the two persons become well acquainted(熟悉的), their intimacy is losing its magic until their mutual boredom(厌烦) kills whatever is left of the initial excitement.F)This attitude ?that nothing is easier than to love ?hascontinued to be spreading in our society. If any other activity, which is started with such huge hopes and expectations, and yet, fails so regularly, as love, people would be eager to know the reasons for the failure, to learn how to do better, or they would give up the activity. Since the latter is impossible in the case of love, there seems to be only one way to overcome the failure of love ?to examine the reasons for this failure, and to proceed to study the meaning of love.G)To learn about love is to learn about an art. That involves the mastery of the theory and the mastery of the practice. If I want to learn the art of medicine, I must first know the facts about the human body and various diseases. When I have all this theoretical knowledge, I am by no means competent in the art of medicine. Only after I have a great deal of practice, when my theoretical knowledge and my practice are blended into one ?my intuition, shall I become a master. Besides, there is a third factor necessary to becoming a master in any art ?the mastery of the art must be a matter of ultimate concern. This holds true for music, for medicine, for sports ?and for love.______11.It’s impossible for people to give up love and thus it’s necessary to find ways to overcome the failure of love.______12.People think love is important, but few people become aware that love is something that needs to be learned.______13.T o master the art of love, people should learn what makes love and practice it until the two are blended into one ?the intuition.______14.There is little reason to be surprised that human love relations follow the same pattern of exchange which governs the commodity(商品) and the labor market.______15.Two people being crazy about each other in thebeginning proves both the intensity of their love and the degree of their preceding loneliness.______16.Many of the ways men and women use to make themselves lovable are the ways used to make themselves successful, to win friends and influence people.______17.In many traditional cultures, love was mostly not a spontaneous(自发的) personal experience which then might lead to marriage, but was supposed to develop once the marriage had been concluded.Section CDirections: There are two passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneThe Internet is changing the way society communicates, processes information and knowledge. Some of these developments are exciting and challenging, but in one particular sense the Internet creates a fundamental challenge to the way humans interact.Today, Internet dating has become more or less accepted as a way of forming relationships. There has been some criticism, but it has usually been of the functional and operational(操作上的) kind, regarding membership costs or users providing false pictures or information. There has been little thought or comment on why matchmaking websites by itself might be a bad thing.Online matchmaking is conditioned on the idea of making rational choices. Internet dating is like shopping at LoveMart. We watch and read the adverts (people profiles) and we then, makea rational decision to try the product. The more choices we have, we are told, the better for making the choice.Furthermore, the way dating websites calculate(计算) matches distorts(扭曲) the very core of interpersonal relations. Online seekers of partners and friends rely on computer calculations of a set of hard questions. The questions that many of these websites use are so terrible (are you happy with your life?A. Yes,B. No,C. Most of the time? that they cannot reflect real conversations. THIS is not human interaction; it is a fundamental shift. Interpersonal relationships are being shifted into products that can be (supposedly) objectively measured and objectively chosen, even though such relations represent the exact opposite.In his book, Alain Badiou noted love ?this great irrational driver of humanity ?has become an object, which people wish to be fully informed about, choose rationally, and not suffer any unexpected disappointments from. It is, as philosopher Slavoj Zizek has noted, like caffeine-free coffee.Some critics have suggested that online dating is taking society back to a pre-modern version of arranged marriages. I would say it is worse. It has taken over the very essence(实质)of what it means to be human.18.What’s known about online dating?A) It has become the most popular way of forming relationships.B) It costs no money to become a member online.C) It provides false pictures and information for users.D) It is rarely criticized for its own sake(自身缘故).19.What’s the reason for online dating being introduced?A) To help users make rational choices.B) To provide users with many choices.C) To ask users to do shopping online.D) To help users to try the product before buying.20.How does online dating influence human interactions?A) It measures human interactions objectively.B) It makes human interactions objective.C) It can’n reflect the real human interactions.D) It can correct human interactions.21.What is 搇ove?according to Alain Badiou?A) Love is reasonable.B) Love is irrational.C) Love is disappointing.D) Love is surprising.22.What’s the writer attitude towards online dating?A) Disapproving.B) Encouraging.C) Faithful. D) Extreme.Passage TwoRomance in China is often sacrificed to practicality; dating has largely become a commercial transaction. In Beijing parents gather in parks to introduce their children to one another. Singles?clubs set people up according to requirements ?height, income, property. And tens of thousands participate in matchmaking events in cities like Shanghai looking for the perfect mate. arriage in many ways in China is a way of pulling resources,?says Roseann Lake, a Beijing-based journalist researching a book on heng nv? In one direction, at least, he idea that a woman, no matter how successful she is professionally, is absolutely nothing until she is married ?it still comes down to that.?Yes, China has experienced miraculous growth in the past three decades, but traditions are hard to shake. Confucian ethics stress that marriage must satisfy societal duty over individual desire.The one-child policy has further reinforced these expectations. In China, the young are expected to provide for theold: whom you marry matters for your entire family.These concerns aren’t evenly shared, and they expose something of a generation gap. Children of the 1980s and 1990s ?who were born in better economic times and fed on pop music and movies ?are in less of a hurry to get married than their parents were.Although China changed birth rate means there will be a surplus(过剩) of about 24 million men in China by 2020, the majority of these singles will live in rural areas. In major cities ?where the rate of housing costs to income can reach 12:1 ?finding a good match is a constant worry for educated, ambitious women.When Chinese Valentine Day nears, preparations for dozens of matchmaking events, most aimed at marriage, are picking up. At the Huanleyuan Culture Club, a singles?club in Beijing ?basic requirement: a college degree; annual membership fee: about $560 ?hundreds will be attending a gala matchmaking event. Ten thousand people are expected at a mass blind date in many cities. They l be looking not just for an attractive smile or that spark of chemistry, but also for the promise of money and connections.23.Which of the following best describes Chinese marriage?A) It is practiced with romance.B) It is based on practical aspects.C) It depends on Chinese economy.D) It is associated with parents?introduction.24.What’s the influence of the one-child policy?A) It puts societal duty before individual desire.B) It drives people to find partners of good resources.C) It makes the young generation develop a sense of responsibility.D) It helps improve the welfare system in China.25.What’s known about children of the 1980s and 1990s?A) They are less anxious about marriage.B) They are from economically good families.C) They learn a lot about pop music and movies.D) They follow the tradition of their parents?marriage.26.What can be drawn from the passage?A) More rural women will be singles in the near future.B) More urban women will be singles in the near future.C) More urban men will be singles in the near future.D) More rural men will be singles in the near future.27.What’s the writer attitude towards Chinese marriage?A) Critical.B) Positive.C) Neutral.D) Negative.Part III TranslationDirections: Translate the passage from Chinese into English.两人万万没有料到，英台应父命回家是因为其父做主，替英台与富家子马文才定了亲。

To accomplish this goal,we need to be familiar with the small adjustments we can make in our everyday lives.The first thing that comes to my mind is that, instead of using cars, we should set about traveling by public transport whenever available. Secondly, we should take care not to take electric power for granted. When we leave a room, all the lights should be turned off. In fact, anything electrical that is not in use should be unplugged. Thirdly,we can recycle. Many things that we use are recyclable. If we get a container to collect the recyclable things, we can contribute to the conservation of natural resources and reduce the amount of pollution and greenhouse gas generated. In addition,a lot of things can be reused rather than being tossed in the trash, such as fabric shopping bags and the reverse side of printed paper.(说明：请勿完全抄写，否则系统会判0分)Unit TestPart I:News ReportsA C A BPart II:Banked ClozeO. walletF. itemsG. laundryD. healthierH. packagingJ. recyclableM. tossN. unplugC. expensiveK.

In general, flowers need sunlight and water to grow. If you don’t expose flowers regularly to enough sunlight and water,they will wither and even die. The same applies to friendship. If you take a friendship for granted, not spending time and energy nurturing/taking care of it, you may one day find your friendship has ceased to exist. Conflict can be compared to a blow to a flower. Friendships, especially young friendships, are unable to endure conflicts just as flowers cannot survive repeated blows. If you have made promises to spend your time with your friend, keep your word. Otherwise it will hurt your friend’s feelings.Old friends may be able to forgive your faults, but you cannot expect newfriends to do the same.

During WWII, he entered into a contract with the US government to make planes that would be able to transport troops and materials across the Atlantic Occan.
