To water his flowers, he used two buckers. One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated on
17、e, which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best. Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single
18、 drop spilled (溢出 ). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked along the path. Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I dont know why he st
19、ill bothers with you. What a waste of space you are!” And all that the old bucket could say was, “I know Im not very useful, but I can only do my best. Im happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.” One day, the gardener heard that kind or conversation. After watering t
20、he flowers as usual, he said, “You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back. I want you to look carefully along the path.” Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare (光秃秃的 )earth; on the
21、 other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden. 【小题 1】 What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean A Dirty B Dark C Worn-out D Plain-looking. 【小题 2】 What was the old bucket ashamed of A His past.

They allow independent travelers to get local knowledge of places they are visiting, fr
24、om the official to the unusual. Meanwhile, hi-tech developments are creating new ways for us to map the world. Here are two of our favorites; Green Maps Green Maps allows people to share with the world their knowledge of environmentally friendly places and attractions in the local areas. Users add i
25、nformation with a set of icons (图标 ), making it easy to read any map, whatever the nationalities of those who produce it. At present there are over five hundred Map projects being developed in 54 countries Green Maps advertised idea is “think global, map local”. It is a wonderful way of gaining all
26、sorts of a place, ranging from community garden to good places of bird watching. Green Maps is not specifically intended for travelers. Not all of its maps are online, so it may be necessary for some users to communicate with producers through the Green Maps website. Maps Mashups Many people use onl
27、ine maps developed by Google, but not many know about the mashups of them. Working in a similar way to Green Maps, Maps Mashups allows people to add icons of their own to existing maps to express a certain topic. The mashups is so called because it combines all the knowledge you could ever need. It

However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt. In the early 16th ce
32、ntury, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his king
33、dom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman sh
34、ould not go out. Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet,
35、it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War . Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea; clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many f
36、irst-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家 ), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaini
37、ng some ground. 【小题 1】 The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because . A they lived healthily in a dirty environment. B they thought bath houses were to dirty to stay in C they believed disease could be spread in public baths D they considered bathing as the cause of
38、 skin disease 【小题 2】 Which of the following best describes Henry IVs attitude to bathing A Afraid. B Curious. C Approving. D Uninterested. 【小题 3】 How does the passage mainly develop A By providing examples. B By making comparisons. C By following the order of time. D By following the order of import
39、ance. 【小题 4】 What is the authors purpose in writing the passage A To stress the role of dirt. B To introduce the history of dirt. C To call attention to the danger of dirt. D To present the change of views on dirt. 答案: 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 A 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 D William Butler Yeats, a most famous Irish wri
40、ter, was born in Dublin on June 13, 1865. His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦 ) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. In fact, he inherited (继承 ) excellent taste in art from his familyboth his father and
41、his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama (戏剧 ) and poetry. Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not
42、 received favorably at the beginning. He didnt lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama. Compared with his dramatic works, Yeatss poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditio
43、nal forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition. He had not enjoyed a major public life since winning the Nobel Price in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeat
44、s stopped writing at age 40, he would who probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet Auden wrote, among others, the following liners: Earth, receive an honored guest: William Yeats is laid to rest. Let the Irish vessel (船 ) lie Emptied of its
45、poetry. 【小题 1】 Which of the following can describe Yeatss family A It filled Yeatss childhood with laughter. B It was shocked by Yeatss choice. C It was a typically wealthy family. D It had an artistic atmosphere. 【小题 2】 According to the passage, what do we know about Yeatss life A Yeats founded the
46、 first Irish theater. B Yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetry. C Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s. D Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Noble Prize. 【小题 3】 What kind of feeling is expressed in W. H. Audens lines A Envy. B Sympathy. C Emptiness. D Admiration. 【
47、小题 4】 What is the passage mainly about A Yeats literary achievements. B Yeats historical influence. C Yeats artistic ambition. D Yeats national honor. 答案: 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 A Skeptics are a strange lot. Some of them refuse to admit the serious threat of human activities to the enviro
48、nment, and they are tired of people who disagree with them. Those people, say skeptics, spread nothing but bad news about the environment. The “eco-guilt” brought on by the discouraging news about our planet gives rise to the popularity of skeptics as people search for more comforting worldviews. Perhaps that explain why a new book by Bjorn Lomborg received so much publicity. That book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, declares that it measures the “real state of the world” as fine. Of course, another explanation is the deep pockets some b
