They both grew up in very large families and lived through the Great Depression. Saving for a rainy day and avoiding superfluous consuming was their life philosophy
15、. Rather than seeking fulfillment through material items, they chose to spend really simple life together, with family and in nature.Over the years my grandparents noticed dramatic changes in their community. Every year more farmland was destroyed to build larger and larger homes. As real estate pri
16、ces rose, many of their neighbors sold their little homes and land. Soon theirs were the only small house on the block, surrounded by a sea of mansions. My grandparents built and lived m a small 600-square-foot cottage for most of their adult lives. Lots of family members encouraged my grandparents
17、to expand their little old house. But they didnt want a bigger place. They loved their little house and were content with what they had.My grandparents avoided consumptive(浪费的）lifestyle by painting and repairing the house themselves. They lived in a small home, but had a huge garden. They loved gard
18、ening and planting because it reduced their grocery bill, improved their health, and gave them an excuse to be outside. They also reused and recycled everything. For instance, they had driven the same car for over 15 years and didnt buy a new one until the old Chevrolet was worn out.Through their ex
19、ample I learned an important lesson: It is possible to live a simple and fulfilling life. My grandparents taught me that living a simple life isnt about self-deprivation. Instead, its about giving yourself the time, freedom, and money to pursue your dreams. Becoming debt free, downsizing to a smalle
20、r home, and going car-lite(减少用车频率）are a few ways to take control of your life and start pursuing your dreams.26.The underlined word superfluous in Paragraph I is closest in meaning to _.A. meaningful B. unnecessary C. increasingD. troublesome27.The communitys changes include all the following EXCEPT
21、 that _A.the people built more farmlandB.the neighbors sold their housesC.the houses became more expensiveD.many mansions were built there28.The authors grandparents didnt expand their house because _.A.they didnt accept the family members1 adviceB.their house were really new and large enoughC.they
22、were satisfied with the house they lived inD.they were too old to do any house-building job29.Which of the following is a consumptive lifestyle in the grandparents ，opinion?A.Repairing the house themselves. B. Planting vegetables in the garden.C.Reusing and recycling things.D. Changing cars in a sho
23、rt time.30.The author thinks his grandparents, lifestyle is _.A.unacceptableB. approvable C. unreasonable D. understandableBIf you are planning to study in the United States, you need to consider several factors. Everyone has different opinions about where is the best place to live in. Also, the bes
24、t places to live in are not always home to the best schools. Finally, many schools specialize in different areas of study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (麻省理工学院)，for example, is a great school for computer science and technology-related fields of study. However, if you want to study ocea
25、nography(海、洋学)，your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that is on a coastline or near the ocean.Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country. So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in.California is a nice st
26、ate. Northern California specifically has very good weather. Los Angeles in Southern California is another story though. Life in Los Angeles is full of excitement and fast, and sometimes dangerous. As for me, I enjoy the time I spent in Massachusetts, Virginia and Maryland and these states have a lo
27、t of history and culture. The weather is not as perfect as Northern California, but it is still quite nice. My favorite area of America is the Mid-west. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. In addition, there are many good universities there.Also, you need to think
28、about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably wont like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature and peace and quiet? Then you probably should stay away from Americas large cities. Are you interested in government?
29、 Then Washington D.C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decide, put some thought into it. The place you live in could be the difference between a great study-abroad experience and a state of great suffering on earth.31.From the first paragraph we can conclude that in the USA _.A.all colleges a
30、nd universities lie in big citiesB.all colleges and universities lie in beautiful placesC.famous colleges and universities lie in nice placesD.famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places32.What, according to the writer, should be considered first if you want to study in the USA?A. Th
31、e climate. B. The scenery. C. The study condition. D. The living condition.33.From the third paragraph we can find that _.A.California is the best place to live inB.California is the worst place to live inC.California is a state with different climatesD.California is a small state in the USA34.If yo
32、u study in Middle America, you can probably _.A.find the best universitiesB. feel the real character of the nationC.meet the most famous professors thereD. face more difficulties35.From the last paragraph of this passage we can get to know that.A.Washington is the largest city in the USA B. Washingt
33、on D.C. is the political centre of the USAC.you cant find sunshine in the MidwestD.you cant find any universities out of big cities in the USACAdvice to “sleep on it” could be well founded, scientists say. After a good nights sleep a problem that seemed impossible to solve the night before can often
34、 appear easier, although no evidence has proved this by now. But researchers at the University of Luebek in Germany have designed an experiment that shows a good nights sleep can improve insight(洞察力）and problem-solving. “If you have some newly acquired memories in your brain, sleep acts on these mem
35、ories, restructures(重构）them, so that after sleep the insight into a problem which you could not solve before increases,” said Dr. Jan Bom, a neuroscientist, at the university. To test the theory, they taught volunteers two simple rules to help them put a string of numbers into a new order. There was
36、 also a third, hidden rule, which could help them increase their speed in solving the problem. The researchers divided the volunteers into two groups, half were allowed to sleep after the training while the remainders were forced to stay awake. Bom and his team noticed that the group that had slept
37、after the training were twice as likely to figure out the third rule as the other group. “Sleep helped,” Bom said in a telephone interview. “The important thing is that you have to have a memory representation in your brain of the problem you want to solve and then you sleep, so it can act on the pr
38、oblem.” But Bom admitted that he and his team dont know how restructuring of memories occurs or what governs it or in which stage of sleep it works. Pierre Marquette and Pierre Ruby of the University of Liege in Belgium said the experimental evidence supports the suggestions that sleep can promote c
39、reative thinking. Although the role of sleep in human creativity will still be a mystery, the research gives people good reason to fully respect their periods of sleep, they added.36.The underlined phrase “sleep on it” in the first line probably means _.A.to put something aside to be solved until th
40、e next dayB.to get as much sleep as possibleC.to go on sleeping without being disturbedD.to sleep till you get up the next morning37.Jan Bom and his team carried out the experiment through _A.comparisonB. interviewC. surveyD. imagination38.It can be inferred from the passage that _.A.people should s
41、leep so long as they have timeB.sleep is the only way to solve hard problemsC.people have various periods of sleepD.people know how sleep restructures memories39.What would be the best title for the passage?A.How Sleep WorksB. Sleep Helps Solve ProblemsC.No Evidence, But Well FoundedD. Boms Discover
42、y On Sleep40.Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?A.A science fiction.B. A book review.C.An advertisement.D. A newspaper.DCommunity theatre is a theatre that is run by a local district with the efforts of volunteers. They offer many different kinds of productions, such as musical
43、 theatre, dance theatre and childrens theatre. Usually, performers are amateurs who receive no pay, but at other times professionals get involved, and they are paid. Community theatres of today are a little different ftom the old “little theatres”，as most are simply run by colleges and their theatre
44、 departments. Community theatres are a great way to get involved with local actors. Now, most theatres put on shows that will entertain or benefit the community.In the 1880s, “little theatre” was started in Europe so that poor people could see theatrical productions without having to travel far or p
45、ay a lot. In 1910，this idea traveled to the United States. In the early years, community theatres were even funded by the government, but when shows became too political, government funding was stopped.Community theatres of today are a little different from the old “little theatres”，as most simply w
46、ant to infuse little culture into the lives of the local citizens. In many cases, these theatres are run by colleges and their theatre departments. These productions are often free of charge, or charge very little money to pay for costumes and other incidental expenses. Many also encourage the parti
47、cipation of children and other young people to let them develop theatrical skills, as well as to keep them busy so that they do not choose to get into trouble. Additionally, for those who desire strongly to become professional actors and to one day get a chance to act in a national theatre productio
48、n, it is an exciting place to learn and develop theatrical skills.41.Why was “little theatre” started in Europe?A.To put on shows for children.B.To collect money for poor people.C.To entertain poor people.D.To get people interested in theatrical productions.42. From the passage we know that communit
49、y theatres can _.A.help young people make more moneyB.prevent young people getting into troubleC.help young people enter the collegesD.encourage young people to become more responsible43.Which of the following is TRUE about community theatre?A.It is usually funded by the government.B.It is intended
