24、20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。A“The first and best of victories for a man is to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful,” says Plato. Self-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) a
25、nd feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral freedom.A single angry word has lost many friends. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold
26、 back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whoever the gods would destroy they first make them mad.” “Keep cool,” says Webster, “anger is not argument.” “Be calm in arguing,” says George Herbert, “for fierceness (狂怒) makes error a fault.”
27、To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “begins with foolishness and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him. Self-control is mans last
28、and greatest victory. If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no self-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character
29、 are lacking too. 56. Whats the main idea of the passage?A. Self- control is important for a man. B. We should learn to be strong.C. A man who keeps cool wont lose any game.D. The great heroes in history knew how to control themselves.57. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?A. If y
30、ou are mad, the gods will kill you.B. If you lose your temper first, gods will kill you first.C. If you cant control yourself, you will be crazy.D. If the gods want to kill you, they will make you mad first.58. Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?A. The first and best of vic
31、tories for a man is to conquer himself.B. You will make a small mistake serious if you dont keep cool.C. You must measure a mans strength by the power of the feelings which conquer him.D. Anger begins with foolishness and ends with regret. www.ks5 高#考#资#源#网59. Which of the following cant help you av
32、oid anger, according to the passage?A. Being calm in arguing. B. Checking your temper or anger by speaking low.C. Keeping your mouth shut. D. Trying to make the other angry first.BMusic died here last spring, or rather, it was killed by members of the school committee who ignored the importance of m
33、usic and drama as part of the high-school curriculum(课程).The committee decided that teaching students how to take a standardized test is more important than a curriculum in which students can explore their interests in the arts as well as academics. Because the school system is running out of fundin
34、g, it needs to make sure that students pass the mastery test or even more money will be lost. If students fail the state standardized test, it is not the fault of drama and music classes they are failing because the academic classes are not sufficient (足够).It is painful to think of how many students
35、 will be discouraged from singing, acting, and playing instruments because school programs are no longer offered. Many families cannot afford private music lessons, and many potential musicians and artists may not find their calling if they are not exposed to it in school. The fact that the school c
36、ommittee thinks the arts are not worth the investment will certainly make some students believe the arts are not worth their time or support and the cycle will continue.Teaching for a test does not shape students into complete, well- rounded people. It blocks the natural sense to create and express
37、feelings through art there is more to life than the analytical thinking that math and English provide. What happens after a test? Sure, a student might graduate, but they will have limited knowledge certainly not a good preparation for the real world.60. Music and drama are ignored by _. A. students
38、B. the school committee C. teachersD. parents61. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Students can get high marks in the standardized test only by attending classesB. The school committee completely influences students attitude towards the artsC. Students can be musicians and a
39、rtists only if they can afford private music lessonsD. Quite a few students are discouraged from music and art in todays school system 62. We can learn that music and art can _.A. provide students with analytical thinkingB. make students round-shaped people in futureC. motivate students in creativit
40、y and expression D. prevent students graduating from high school63. The best title of the passage can be _.A. Who Killed Music and Drama?B. Can Curriculum Go Without Arts? C. Why is Music So Important?D. How to Prepare For the Real World?CStopping teens from smoking is a big challenge many communiti
41、es face today. Many communities can only watch without being able to act while local businesses continue to sell tobacco products to children, even under the risk of punishment by law. Recent studies show that a large percentage of teens today are getting their cigarettes from stores, mostly gas sta
42、tions or convenience stores. As teens continue to be able to buy their own cigarettes, more and more communities begin to punish those who sell cigarettes to the teens. One community has experienced success in their attempts to stop the sale of tobacco products to children. Woodridge, Illinois, star
43、ted a program seven years ago which forbade and strictly punished the sale of tobacco products to children. The entire program includes local licensing of vendors (小贩), repeated undercover inspections to see if the sale to children has stopped, and education programs in schools. Woodridge has become
44、 a model community as other communities are moving to stop teen tobacco use. A recent national study showed that 36.5% of females, and 40.8% of males buy their cigarettes from stores, whether it is a gas station or a supermarket. Hopefully, as more and more sellers see the trouble they face if caugh
45、t selling to children, they will stop selling. True, tightening down on stores that sell tobacco to children isnt going to completely stop the problem of teen tobacco use. Teens continue to get them from other sources. But it definitely does prevent their efforts. With more education in schools, and
46、 perhaps stronger punishments for teens caught with tobacco, more and more teens will see the problems with the tobacco usage, and will stop the habit.64. To stop teens from smoking, more and more communities are _.A. punishing those who sell cigarettes to teensB. punishing teens caught with tobacco
47、 more severelyC. educating those who sell cigarettes about the danger of teen smokingD. stopping the sale of tobacco products in stores65. Which of the following is NOT a way Woodridge uses to stop tobacco sale to children?A. Local licensing to tobacco sale. B. Repeated undercover inspections.C. Edu
48、cation programs in schools. D. Stronger punishment of teens caught smoking.66. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. teens can only buy cigarettes from gas stations and convenience storesB. more communities have succeeded in stopping teen tobacco useC. More males than females have the habit
49、of smoking in AmericaD. Punishment alone cannot solve the problem of teen tobacco use67. What attitude does the writer have towards stopping teen tobacco abuse?A. Negative B. Optimistic C. Uncertain D. Uncaring www.ks5 高#考#资#源#网DEvery year, it costs British students more and more to attend universit
50、y. Students are graduating with larger and larger debts. So is a college degree really worth it? In 2006, the UK government started to allow universities in England and Wales to charge British students tuition fees (学费). As a result, more than 80 percent of students in England and Wales now take out
51、 a student loan (贷款) in order to go to university. They use the loan to pay for tuition fees and living expenses. Although the interest on student loans is quite low, it begins as soon as the student receives the loan.The average student in England and Wales now graduates from university with a debt
52、 of around 12,000 (122,952 yuan). It means graduates have to struggle to pay rent on a flat, because they have to start paying back the student loan when they reach the April after graduating. If you start to earn over 15,000 (153,630 yuan) a year, the government takes repayments directly from your
53、monthly salary.You might think that a person with a degree would find it easy to get a well-paid job. However, most people in “white collar jobs” seem to have a degree, so there is a lot of competition. Also, British companies tend to value work experience over a piece of paper.All of the above is b
54、eginning to make British people question whether a university degree is really worth the money. Even before the credit crisis started, the BBC stated: “The number of British students at UK universities has fallen for the first time in recent history, from 1.97 million in 2007 to 1.96 million last ye
55、ar 2008.”“Student poverty” is now considered a real problem. Meanwhile, the British universities offer more and more of the available places to richer international students rather than poorer British students. What does the future hold for British higher education?68. What makes British students qu
56、estion the worth of a university degree?A. Higher university expenses. B. Lower education quality.C. A higher interest rate on student loans. D. Greater difficulty obtaining student loans.69. According to the article, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. University tuition fees in all parts
57、of Britain have been on the rise since 2006.B. Interest on a student loan starts as soon as the student receives it.C. Britons have always questioned the worth of a university degree.D. University graduates need to pay off their loans right upon graduation.70. Which of the following is NOT a factor
58、that concerns a British university graduate?A. Fierce competition in the job market. B. The burden of a large debt.C. Lack of experience. D. Fewer job openings.

59、, though wild fish stocks in many oceans are very low. Its not because theyre bad for you, though fish in many areas are exposed to poisonous substances in the water. 71 .“Fish are sensitive; they have personalities,” says the marine biologist. For Earle, eating a fish would be like eating a dog or
60、a cat. “I would never eat anyone I know personally.” Theres a lot more to fish than meets the eye: they talk to each other, they like to be touched, and they engage in behavior that can seem very human. 72 . Earle and a growing number of animal rights activists see these as strong arguments against
61、eating fish altogether. 73 . “While it may seem obvious that fish are able to feel pain, like every other animal, some people think of fish as swimming vegetables,” says Dr. Lynne Sneddon. “Really, its kind of a moral question. Is the enjoyment you get from fishing (or eating fish) more important th
