Unlike Jesus Christ, he did not bring words of God to the people. He was a clever teacher
9、 and a philosopher (哲学家), looking for truth and wisdom. Most of his teaching was about life in this world. Confucius was very keen（渴望） to give people good rulers. Someone asked him, “What does a country need?” Confucius answered, “Enough food, a good army, and a good leader.” The people then asked,
10、“Which one is the most important?” Confucius answered, “An army is not very important. All men must die, so food is not the most important. But if the leader of the country is not good, then everything will be bad,”21. A philosopher is a person who _. A. does not like Jesus Christ B. teaches people
11、something about God C. Seeks after truth and wisdom D. is more clever than most of other people22. Jesus Christ _. A. was born more than half a century earlier than Confucius B. taught people anything about God C. did not tell people anything about God D. was a philosopher sent by God23. Confucius t

13、d D. ought to die if he considered food to be the most important for himBThe United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the eleventh largest nation in Europe. England, Wales and Scotland make up the island of Great Britain, which takes up（占据） most of the Britain Isles. Northern Ireland,
14、 Scotland and Wales are mountainous. The highest mountain is Ben Nevis in Scotland. Plains and valleys cover much of England. The British climate is mild. About 58 million people live in the United Kingdom. Few other countries are so crowded. Four out of five people live in cities such as Belfast, G
15、lasgow, and London. London is the capital. Great Britain grows half of the food it needs. Its industries help to pay for the food that is bought from abroad. The United Kingdom manufactures（制造商） a wide range of goods. Service industries, such as tourism, that provide services rather than producing g
16、oods, are increasing. Traditional industries, such as coal mining, are declining.25. There are many mountains in _.A. Northern Ireland, Scotland and England B. England, Wales and ScotlandC. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland D. Northern Ireland, Wales and England26. In the United Kingdom, about _p
17、eople live in big cities.A. 58 million B. 48.8 million C. 38.8 million D. half 27. According to the passage, which of the statements is true? _ .A. Great Britain grows all of the food it needs.B.

18、er than producing goods.D. The coal mining is also increasing fast. CDoctors may now be able to stop many heart attacks. An important new study reports that doctors have a new drug. This drug is called TPA. It may be better than any other heart drugs. Many doctors now use a drug called streptokinase
19、. But this drug sometimes causes problems for patients. It can even cause bleeding（流血）in the brain. Some doctors do not use streptokinase. Streptokinase can save about 1/3 of the people with heart attacks. But TPA will save about 2/3. One reason TPA can help more people is because of time. This new
20、drug is easier and faster to use. It will give doctors more time in hospitals. Then they can study the problem well. People with heart problems can also keep some TPA at home. When a heart attack starts, they can take some TPA right away. Then they will have time to get to the hospital. This is impo
21、rtant because about 860,000 people in the United States die before they get to the hospital. This is another reason why TPA is good news for people with heart attacks. According to the study, it is much safer; it doesnt cause other problems like streptokinase does. TAP works only on the heart. It do
22、es not have an effect on the blood or cause bleeding. Doctor plan to do more studies about TAP. They need to test this new drug on many more people with heart attacks. But in a few years, many doctors and hospitals will probably start using this exciting new drug. 28. In your opinion, the best title

27、 beyond all reason. I joined a riding club and suffered rude comments and mean snickers about Cowboys looks. I never let out about how I felt, but deep inside, my heart was breaking.

Cowboy then flew over the second，third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finishing line.As we
32、crossed the line the crowd was shocked into silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds!I gained much more than a blue ribbon(缎带) that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds(几率)，Id always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work fo

34、der. BHe had not practiced enough.CHe believed he was unpopular with the crowd.
