26、项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。ABertie knew there was something in the wind. His mother had been sad in recent days, not sick，just strangely sad. The lion had just lain down beside him，his head warm on Berties feet，when Father cleared his throat and began, “Youll soon be eight, Bertie. A boy needs a proper education
27、. Weve found the right place for you, a school near Salisbury in England. ”His heart filled with a terrible fear, all Bertie could think of was his white lion. “But the lion,” he cried, “What about the lion?”“Im afraid theres something else I have to tell you, ” his father said. Looking across at Be
28、rties mother, he took a deep breath. Then he told Bertie he had met a circus owner from France, who was over in Africa looking for lions to buy. He would come to their farm in a few days.“No! You cant send him to a circus!” said Bertie. “People will come to see him. Hell be shut up behind bars. I pr
29、omised him he never would be. And they will laugh at him. Hed rather die. Any animal would! ” But as he looked across the table at them, he knew their minds were quite made up.Bertie felt completely betrayed (出卖). He waited until he heard his fathers deep breathing next door. With his white lion at
30、his heels，he crept (蹑手蹑脚地移动) downstairs，took down his fathers rifle (步枪) and stepped out into the night. He ran and ran till his legs could run no more. As the sun came up over the grassland, he climbed to the top of a hill and sat down, his arms round the lions neck. The time had come.“Be wild now”
31、，he whispered. “Youve got to be wild. Dont ever come home. All my life Ill think of you. I promise I will. ” He buried his head in the lions neck. Then, Bertie climbed down the hill and walked away.When he looked back, the lion was still sitting there watching him; but then he stood up, yawned, stre
32、tched, and sprang down after him. Bertie shouted at him, but he kept coming. He threw sticks. He threw stones. Nothing worked.There was only one thing left to do. With tears filling his eyes and his mouth，he lifted the rifle to his shoulder and fired over the lions head.56. Berties mother was sad pr

Hugh Grant bumps (撞) into Julia Roberts and spills (洒) orange ju
34、ice all over her. After the collision, Grant repeatedly says: “ I am so sorry. I am so sorry.”His actions in this scene are very British. If Roberts character were from Britain then she would probably apologize repeatedly as welleven if the crash were not her fault. But this doesnt happen in the fil
35、m, as Roberts is from the US.A report in The Telegraph last week said that three-quarters of British people apologize when they bump into someone in the street regardless of whether they are responsible or not. In fact, we Britons use “sorry” in many situations. For example, if we mishear someone, w
36、e say “Sorry?” The person we are talking to will also apologize by replying: “No, I am sorry!” This can go on for up to five minutes as we compete over who is the most sorry.Life is never as simple as “duibuqi” and “meiguanxi”.How we use “sorry” has changed. Traditionally, “sorry” was used to expres
37、s deep regret, but a survey in 2007 showed that we use it to mean anything from “what” to “whatever”.Why are Britons so sorry? Mark Tyrell, a psychology writer in the UK, thinks about our apologetic tendencies are rooted in the British class system. We say sorry because historically the new middle c
38、lasses in Britain had to apologize for not being working class, but also for not really being upper class. Another theory is that we apologize to avoid confrontation(冲突). For example, if you bump into someone they might get angry. To avoid this we instantly say “Sorry!”.True manners are about being
39、considerate and the modern day obsession with apologizing show that we are perhaps not as thoughtful as we once were. The word has lost some of its meaning. Do you see my point? Sorry, it might just be a British thing60. What can we infer from paragraph 2? A. In fact Roberts are responsible for the
40、collision. B. People from the US say “sorry” more than British people. C. There is no crash happening in the film. D. British people say sorry even if it is not their fault.61.

42、nt situations. C. Middle classes in British are to blame for not being working class. D. Britons say “sorry” to avoid confrontation.63. What does the underlined word “collision” in the first paragraph mean? A. quarrel B. disagreement C. crash D. fightCBack those photos upThe images were strikingHome
43、s on the East Coast were washed away by Superstorm Sandy. People were in tears, picking up faded photographs, among their only remaining possessionsIf that doesnt move you to get serious about safekeeping your lifetime of memories, what will?

Rather than “every man for himself”, Darwin believed that humans are successful as a species precisely because of our educatio
53、nal, selfless and sympathetic characteristics. Why has it taken so long for Darwins central revelation(揭示) to be properly understood? “Weve had too many men in social science,” Berkeley psychology professor Dacher Keltner told me in an interview. “Female scientists acknowledge that caring for people
54、 is part of human nature according to the research, which shows the human ability to care exists in our brains and nerve systems.”In my book Passages in Caregiving , I urge women who take the whole responsibility for taking care of an elderly parent or a sick relative to build a “Circle of Care”. Re
55、ach out to your brothers and sisters, friends, neighbors and community volunteers to help you care, because no one can perform this overwhelming role alone.
