These were Charlotte Brontes Jane Eyre and Emily Brontes Wuthering Heights. The youngest sister, Anne, was also a g
25、ifted novelist, and her books have the same extraordinary quality as her sisters.Their father was Patrick Bronte, born in Ireland. He moved with his wife, Maria Bronte, and their six small children to Haworth in Yorkshire in 1820. Soon after, Mrs. Bronte and the two eldest children died, leaving the
26、 father to care of the remaining three girls and a boy.Charlotte was born in 1816. Emily was born in 1818 and Anne in 1820. Their brother Branwell was born in 1817. Left to themselves, the children wrote and told stories and walked over the hills. They grew up largely self-educated. Branwell showed
27、a great interest in drawing. The girls were determined to earn money for his art education. They took positions as teachers or taught children in their homes. As children they had all written many stories. Charlotte, as a young girl, alone wrote 22 books, each with 60 to 100 pages of small handwriti
28、ng. Therefore, they turned to writing for income. By 1847, Charlotte had written The Professor; Emily, Wuthering Heights; and Anne, Agnes Grey. After much difficulty Anne and Emily found a publisher(出版商), but there was no interest shown in Charlottes book. (It was not published until 1859.) However,
29、 one publisher expressed an interest in seeing more of her works. Jane Eyre was already started, and she hurriedly finished it. It was accepted at once; thus each of the sisters had a book published in 1847.Jane Eyre was immediately successful; the other two, however, did not do so well. People did
30、not like Wuthering Heights. They said it was too wild, too animal-like. But gradually it came to be considered one of the finest novels in the English language. Emily lived only a short while after the publication of the book, and Anne died in 1849.Charlotte published Shirley in 1849, and Villette i
31、n 1853. In 1854 she married Arthur Bell Nicholls. But only a year later, she died of tuberculosis(肺结核) as her sisters had.56. We know from the text that .A. Jane Eyre was published in 1847B. Charlotte Bronte wrote 22 books in allC. the Bronte sisters received good educationD. Patrick Bronte helped h
32、is daughters with their writing57. The underlined words “the other two” in the 5 th paragraph refer to .A. Shirley and VilletteB. The Professor and Agnes GreyC. Agnes Grey and Wutheriing Heights D. The Professor and wuthering Heights58. What do we know about the Bronte sisters from the text?A. Their
33、 novels interested few publishers.B. None of them had more than two books published.C. None of them lived longer than 40 years old.D. Emily was the least successful of the three.BDaredevil climber Alain Robert, known as the French Spiderman, stood strong winds and rain to climb the worlds tallest sk
34、yscraper, Taiper 101, Saturday.Robert, dressed in a red rain jacket, tights and climbing shoes, climbed up ropes hung down the side of the 101-storey, 1,667-foot office tower, reaching the top in around four hours. “It was a very big moment and I felt a lot of satisfaction though I was already so ti
35、red and nearly all of my muscles were painful. I felt completely eased,” said Robert after taking the ride down in one of the towers lifts, the worlds fastest.Several hundred onlookers and shoppers gathered at the base of the tower watching and cheering Roberts progress through live pictures on a la
36、rge television screen. At times he disappeared from view as clouds passed by the top of the tower surrounding the upper storeys.The 42-year-old Frenchman has covered scores of well-known structures around the world including the Empire State Building and the Eiffel Towerwithout permission or any saf
37、ety equipment or ropes.This time Robert was wearing a harness(背带) fastened to safety ropes for the entire climb. He used the ropes to pull himself up most of the way, using his hands and feet to climb up the walls for only short sections. He said the management had requested he wear the ropes and sa
38、fety equipment, which had also become necessary due to the rain making the windows and frames very slippery. Robert said he would not carry his pity the next time. 59. The text mainly tells us that .A. another world record was broken by a Frenchman.B. the French Spiderman climbed the worlds tallest
39、buildingC. how Alain Robert got the name “daredevil”D. Alain Robert was praised for his great success60.

40、metimes61. When Alain Robert climbed the Empire State Building, he was likely to .A. use only his hands and feetB. be 42 years oldC. carry some safety equipmentD. get permission of someone62.

41、rt chose a rainy day on purposeC. Alain Robert will climb Taipei 101 a second time D. Alain Robert got lots of help from onlookersCIt is not often realized that women held a high place in southern European societies in the 10 th and 11 th centuries. As wife, the woman was protected by the setting up
42、 of a dowry (嫁妆) or decimum. Admittedly, the purpose of this was to protect her against the risk of desertion (遗弃),but in reality its function in the social and family life of the time was much more important. The decimum was the wifes right to receive a tenth of all her husbands property. The wife
43、had the right to withhold consent, in all transactions the husband would make, And more than just a right: the documents showed that she enjoyed a real power of decision, equal to that of her husband. In no case did the documents indicate any degree of difference in the legal status of husband and w
44、ife. The wife shared in the management of her husbands personal property, but the opposite was not always true. Women seemed perfectly prepared to defend their own inheritance(遗产,继承物)against husbands who tried to exceed their rights, and on occasion they showed a fine fighting spirit. A case in poin
45、t is that of Maria, Vivas, a Catalan woman of Barcelona. Having agreed with her husband Miro to sell a field she had inherited, for the needs of the household, she insisted on compensation. None being offered, she succeeded in dragging her husband to the scribe to have a contract duly drawn up assig
46、ning her a piece of land from Miros personal inheritance. The unfortunate husband was obliged to agree, as the contract says, “for the sake of peace.” Either through the dowry or through being hot-tempered, the Catalan wife knew how to win herself, within the context of the family, a powerful econom
47、ic position.63. A decimum was .A. the wifes inheritance from her father B. a gift of money to the new husbandC. a written contractD. the wifes right to receive one-tenth of her husbands property64. In the society described in the passage, the legal standing of the wife in marriage was .A. higher tha
48、n that of her husband B. lower than that of her husbandC. the same as that of her husbandD. higher than that of a single woman65. What compensation did Maria Vivas get for the field?A. Some of the land Miro had inherited.B. A tenth of Miros land.C. Money for household expenses.D. Money from Miros in
49、heritance.66. Which of the following is Not mentioned as an effect of the dowry system?A. The husband had to share the power of decision in marriage.B. The wife was protested from desertion.C. The wife gained a powerful economic position.D. The husband was given control over his wifes property.DYear

But many parents and teachers hold the different view
77、, they think that managing ones blog will take a lot of time and energy, while this should be used to study, which is their main task.In my opinion, I am greatly in favor of this activity. Nowadays the Internet is playing an important and essential role in our life. Therefore as high school students
78、 of the so-called information age, we need to learn and make use of this meaningful tool to communicate and display ourselves.
