10、D)中,选出最佳选项。A A year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a writing class. Teaching was a profession I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Da
11、vis. My father went by the same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused. “Wait a minute!” someone might say, “are you talking about Mr. Davis there tired man, or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar?” The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two weeks to p
12、repare, a period I spent searching for briefcase (公文包) and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, “Hello, class. Im Mr. Davis.” Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Sometimes I would sound experienced. But when the day eventually came, my nerves kicked in and the t
13、rue Mr. Davis was there. I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy. I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves. I had cut them myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I 2handed out the cards
14、, and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required. “All right then,” I said. “O key, here we go.” Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, off
15、ering their thoughts and opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk, overlooking a forest of hands. Every student would yell. “Calm down, youll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time!” A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opi
16、nions, I inspected the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.21. The author took the job to teach writing because _. A. he wanted to be respected B. he had written some stories C. he wanted to please his father D. he had dreamed of b

Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest
20、rate. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I
21、 personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques. I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. “The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve
22、 black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round peoples wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves.” Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on ou
23、r culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of day according to the beating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout the time. So
24、 it seems that the first clocks were human beings. However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time. 3They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour- glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student
25、of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past. Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own
26、 home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by time, why not invest in an antique clock and perhaps make a future profit?25. By quoting (引用) the remark of a being from another planet, the author intends to_. A. suggest human beings are controlled by a clock B. describe why clocks can rule the pla
27、net Earth C. tell readers what clocks look like D. compare clocks to human beings26. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time? A. Counting the beating of ones own heart. B. Making use of candles, sand and water. C. Observing shadows cast by the sun. D. Keeping slaves busy
28、 day and night.27. The underlined phrase stately homes in Paragraph 4 means _. A. state-owned houses B. houses in very good condition C. grand houses open to the public D. houses where statesmen meet regularly28. The purpose of the passage is _. A. to introduce the culture of antique clocks B. to of
29、fer some advice on collecting antique clocks C. to compare different ways to make a future profit D. to explain convenient and reliable ways of telling time C Tell a story and tell it well, and you may open wide the eyes of a child, open up lines of communication in a business, or even open peoples
30、mind to another culture or race. People in many places are digging up the old folk stories and the messages in them. For example, most American storytellers get their tales from a wide variety of sources, cultures, and times. They regard storytelling not only as a useful tool in child education, but
31、 also as a meaningful activity that helps adults understand themselves as well as those whose culture may be very different from their own. “Most local stories are based on a larger theme,” American storyteller Opalanga Pughsays, “ Cinderella, or the central idea of a good child protected by her goo
32、dness, appears in various forms in almost every culture of the world.” Working with students in schools, Pugh helps them understand their own cultures and the general messages of the stories. She works with prisoner too, helping them knowing who they are by telling stories that her listeners can wri
33、te, direct, and act in their own lives. If they dont like the story they are living, they can rewrite the story. Pugh also works to help open up lines of communication between managers and workers. “For every advance in business,” she says, “there is a greater need for communication” Storytelling ca
34、n have a great effect on either side of the manager-worker relationship, she says. Pugh spent several years in Nigeria, where she learned how closely storytelling was linked to the everyday life of the people there. The benefits of storytelling are found everywhere, she says. “I learned how people u
35、sed stories to spread their culture,” she says, “ What I do is to 4focus on the value of the stories that people can translate into their own daily world of affairs. We are all storytellers. We all have a story to tell. We tell everybodys story.”29. What do we learn about American storyteller from P
36、aragraph 2? A. They share the same way of storytelling. B. They prefer to tell the stories from other cultures. C. They learn their stories from the American natives. D. They find storytelling useful for both children and adults.30. The underlined sentence (Paragraph 4) suggests that prisoners can _

Monarch butterflies are the town mascot. Tourism is very important, and many people come to see the butterflies. The butterfli
40、es are good for the development of the town. In 1981 there were so many butterflies it looked like it was raining butterflies. Tens of thousands of Monarchs stayed on tree branches near Pacific Grove. Now there are not so many. The building goes on a little bit at a time, and you dont notice it day
41、by day. Over time, you can see that there has been a lot of development. As new buildings go up, many trees are cut down. This reduces the natural homes for the butterflies. Monarchs travel hundreds of miles each year, returning to the same woods, often to the same trees. The female Monarchs need mi
