Theres always someone whos a bit _32_
18、. The only solution is to reach 33 and measure against what Warren Buffett calls your own inner yardstick. There is no more 34 measure for comparison than who you were yesterday, last week or last decade, - 4 -when you were at your 35 . Nothing useful ever comes from comparison to others. 36 you see
19、 yourself as better than someone and you get 37 , or you see someone else as better than you and you feel like all your hard work is for 38 . It is a fools game. Not one of us is 39 alike. The only direct and honest comparison is 40 yourself. Everything else is apples to oranges. My opinion is that
20、you are only 41 to compare yourself to someone else if their life 42 is the same as your own. Good luck finding that match. And one thing is 43 . No matter how hard you work and how dedicated you are, there will always be someone who can run a little faster, jump a little higher, score a little bett

26、每小题 2 分，满分 20分)阅读下列三篇短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项 。AHeres a movie-a sharp, sugar-rush of fun thats guaranteed to entertain the entire family. With some terrific computer-generated effects, a great cast and a fun-packed storyline, Robots is the best animated film(动画片 ) since The Incredibles. Yep, i
27、t really is that good. Set in a world populated by robots, Ewan McGregor plays Rodney Copperbottom, a young robot who leaves his small-town home to pursue his dream of becoming an inventor. But after arriving in Robot City, his hopes of getting a job at Bigweld Industries are destroyed when he learn
28、s the firm has been taken over by the evil Ratchet (Greg Kinnear). Egged on by his controlling mum, Madame Gasket(Jim Broadbent), Ratchet plans to reduce half on Robot Citys citizens to scrap metal by refusing to sell the spare Pans they need to survive. Instead, he wants to make a fortune selling e
29、xpensive upgrades that few can afford. As he says, “Why be you when you can be new?”Aided by a few misfit robots known as the Rustles-including Robin Williams as the cowardly(胆小的) Fender (“Im made of a metal called Afraidium”)-Rodney must track down the firms founder, Bigweld(Mel Brooks), and convin
30、ce him to save the city from Ratchets plans. The first thing thatll strike you about the movie is the thought thats gone into creating Robot City. Its a wondrous world full of mechanical marvels including wind-up cars and walking streetlamps. Also terrific are the special effects. This might be anim
31、ated movie but at times youll catch yourself thinking its really a live-action film. Of course, there have been plenty of animated movies that looked the part but were let down by a weak storyline(see Shark Tale, for example). But Robots grips(扣人心弦 )right from the start thanks to a heart-warming and
32、 thoroughly engaging plot that never bores. My only complaints are with Williams who, as usual, has a one-in-10 success rate with his jokes. Also a letdown is a romantic subplot between Rodney and a shapely robot called Cappy(Halle Berry)that doesnt go anywhere. Complains aside, this is a mechanical
33、 marvel thatll have you bolted firmly to your seat. BEST QUOTE(引述)：Fender：“Even though you had a discouraging day, just remember theres another one coming tomorrow. BEST BIT：Check out those amazing images. - 6 -WORST BIT：Robin Williams character does an unfunny Britney Spears dance routine. IF YOU L

What is Shark Tale an example of?A. A great cast. B. Special effects. C. A poor plot. D. Clumsy animation. BThe malls were filled
35、 with people seeking gifts for their loved ones. Some of the malls remained open around the clock, partly to satisfy our needs to buy gifts. Behind the materialistic aspect of shopping for gifts lies the idea of caring, being attentive to the desires of special people in our lives. However, to use a
36、 well-worn play on words: it is our presence, not our presents, that truly counts. Many of us, unfortunately, can be so inattentive, even in the presence of our loved ones, that we might as well not be there at all. Attention is one of the greatest gifts we can give each other. Companies around the
37、globe spend billions every year on advertising to catch our attention for just a short moment at a time. Whole industries media, entertainment, education rely on the precious gift of our attention for their continued existence. A baby lacking attention for a long time is likely to be psychologically
38、 unhealthy. In earlier times, both diet and attention could be left unregulated (没人管的) without major cause for concern. There were natural checks and balances: limited availability of food meant few got fat, for example. Similarly, in bygone times we might have spent a few hours communicating with t
39、he village storyteller; today, watching an entire TV series, while speaking to nobody, is common. In traditional societies, with smaller population, everyone would get a fair deal of attention. On many issues we might go to see Grandma or Grandpa; now we have Google and Wikipedia. “She just wants at
40、tention.” people tend to think little of those doing things simply for attention. But the truth is that human beings need attention, and giving attention to each other is, to a large extent, what human civilization is based upon. This perhaps explains the runaway success of social networking sites s
41、uch as Twitter and Facebook. While we use such sites for “micro Hogging”, “idea voicing” and “status updates” the reality is that we are often doing no more or less than fulfilling our basic human drive for attention exchange. I friend you, you friend me, I retweet you, you retweet me. The charming
42、ease with which we can now get and give attention is why many people appear overly attached to their smartphones. It is also a vicious (恶性的) circle. As ever more people are busy exchanging attention online, there is increasingly less attention to be paid in the real world, which forces more people t
43、o seek their attention exchange online, or else risk attention-starvation. The very nature of attention exchange is being rapidly transformed, and there is a danger that some of us will develop unhealthy practices. Just as - 7 -eating red meat every day is a bad idea, so it is with too much attentio
44、n exchange. The biological consequences of our technological advancement in food production are highly visible; heart disease, diabetes and obesity. The consequences of our transformed attention exchanges will be psychological and social, and so may take longer to identify, but they will be equally
45、damaging. Face-to-face attention is becoming rarer, and therefore more valuable. In a sense it is priceless. And it is a gift that can be given all-year-round. 53. In the first two paragraphs the author _. A. offers advice to attention givers B. puts forward his point of view C. states the necessity
46、 of presents D. analyses the present problems54. What can we infer from Paragraphs 6-7? A. Transformed attention exchanges do harm to society.B. The nature of attention exchange is rarely changed. C. Technological advancement contributes to all diseases. D. More people will risk attention-starvation
47、 in future. 55. The writers purpose for writing the passage is to _. A. recommend some social networking sites B. analyze the necessity of attention giving C. give practical tips on attention exchange D. advocate more focus on real life attentionCThe man from the telephone department got off the bus
48、, and made his way to the tea stall, wiping the sweat off his head, face, then slipping his handkerchief under his shirt to wipe his neck and back. It was a year ago that the phone line had been installed, six months later men from the public works department had come to put up the phone booth a neat box-like structure, with a glass win
