20、“old fogies (守旧者 ) at twenty-five”. He was right. Most men at twenty-five are satisfied with their jobs. They have closed their minds to all new ideas; they have stopped to grow. The minute a man stops to grow no matter what his years that minute he begins to be old. On the other hand, the really gr
21、eat man never grows old. Goethe passed away at eighty-three, and finished his Faust only a few years earlier; Gladstone took up a new language when he was seventy. Laplace, the astronomer, was still at work when death caught up with him at seventy-eight. He died crying, “What we know is nothing; wha
22、t we do not know is immense (extremely large).” And there you have the real answer to the question, “When is a man old ” Laplace at seventy-eight died young. He was still unsatisfied, still sure that he had a lot to learn. As long as a man can keep himself in that attitude of mind, as long as he can
23、 look back on every year and say, “I grew”, he is still young. The minute he ceases (stops) to grow, the minute he says to himself, “I know all that I need to know,” that day youth stops. He may be twenty-five or seventy-five; it makes no difference. On that day he begins to be old. 【小题 1】 According
24、 to William James, _. A most people are not open to new ideas before 25. B few people continue to improve themselves after 25. C some people still try to make progress after 25.来源 :学 ,科 ,网 D all the people stop to make progress after 25. 【小题 2】 The author mentions Goethe, Gladstone and Laplace to sh
25、ow that _. A the great man stops to grow that minute he begins to be old. B the really great man never grows old. C the great man usually dies young. D the really great man never dies. 【小题 3】 What do we know about Laplace A He was a great writer. B He was not pleased with what he had learned. C He t
26、hought he was one of the greatest man. D He thought he was old when he was 25. 【小题 4】 The author probably agrees with _. A people should be pleased with what they have. B people should try to make a great difference. C people should cease to grow when they are 25. D people should not be satisfied wi
27、th what they know. 答案： 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 D A man living absolutely alone in a desert or forest is free from other people; but he is not absolutely free. His freedom is limited in several ways. Firstly, by the things around him, such as wild animals or cliffs too steep (陡峭的 ) to climb
28、. Secondly, by his own needs: he must have sleep, water, food and shelter from extreme heat or cold. Lastly, by his own nature as a man: disease may attack him, and death will certainly come to him sooner or later. When men live together, on the other hand, protection against wild animals is easier
29、and they can work together to get food and build shelters; but each man has to give up some of his freedom so that he can live happily with the others. When men become organized into very large groups, and civilization (文明 ) develops, it is possible to get freedom from hunger, thirst, cold, heat and
30、 many diseases, so that each person can live a happier life than he could if he were living alone; but such a society can not work successfully unless the freedom of each human being is to some extent limited so that he is kept from hurting others. I am not free to kill others, nor to steal someone
31、elses property, nor to behave in a way that offends (触犯 ) against the moral sense of the society in which I live. I have to limit my own freedom myself so that others will not limit it too much: I agree to respect the rights of others, and in return they agree to respect mine. The advantages of such
32、 an agreement are great: one man can become a doctor, knowing that others will grow food, make clothes and build a house for him, in return for the work he does to keep them healthy. If each man had to grow his own food, make his own clothes, build his own house and learn to be his own doctor, he wo
33、uld find it impossible to do any one of these jobs really well. By working together, we make it possible for society to provide us all with food, clothes, shelter and medical care, while leaving each of us with as much freedom as it can. 【小题 1】 A man living alone in a desert or forest _. A is comple
34、tely free B feels rather lonely C has limited freedom D enjoys no freedom 【小题 2】 The author suggests that when men live together _. A they will have no freedom and have to help others. B they can help each other protect against wild animals. C they have to work for their own food and shelters D ever
35、yones happiness is at the expense of other peoples freedom. 【小题 3】 According to the passage, to do all his own jobs one would _. A enjoy a complete freedom. B find it a happy thing to do everything at his own will C find it a very hard job to deal with everything by himself D feel quite fantastic an
36、d encouraged. 【小题 4】 We may infer from the passage that the author _. A is against separation from a civilized society. B is in favor of a well-organized society. C is against freedom gained at others. D denies the existence of many-sided people 答案： 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 B China news, Be
37、ijing, July. 29 Housing price in China has always aroused heated discussions among property (房产 ) developers and ordinary Chinese. To many property developers and local government officials, housing price in China is still low compared with many developed countries. However, the average housing pric
38、e in the United States is only 8,000 yuan per square meter, while in China, it is even higher than in the United States. This shows that there are some bubbles(泡沫 ) in Chinese real estate(房地产 ) market, the International Finance News reported. Although the average price of residential houses in the U
39、nited States, after converted to Renminbi, is about 8,000 yuan per square meter, the houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese property developers do when they sell their houses. If US property developers sell their houses according to the building area, then the housing p
40、rice will be even lower than 8,000 yuan per square meter. In most big Chinese cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, houses are sold at a price even higher than those in the US. The high housing sales price in large cities in China proves that Chinese real estate market does have some bubb
41、les. Moreover, Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities. Furthermore, it should be noted that American peoples average income is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people. How can the Chinese afford to buy a
42、 house which is even more expensive than that sold in US At the beginning of 2007, Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public. Now in order to reduce the high housing prices, the government can regulate(control) the real estate market by raising tax on property indu
43、stry and controlling the release of loans (贷款 ) and lands to property developers. At the same time, the government should allow people to build more houses th rough various fund-raising channels, such as funds collected from buyers or raised by working units. By applying these multiple means, it is
44、expected that the high housing prices can be lowered. 【小题 1】 What is the average housing price per square meter in China A 8000 yuan. B 10000 yuan. C 7000 yuan. D Its not mentioned here. 【小题 2】 Which of the following does NOT support the idea that the average housing price in China is even higher th
45、an in the United States A Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities. B American peoples a verage income is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people. C The houses in US are not sold in terms of building area,
46、 as most Chinese property developers do when they sell their houses. D The population who need houses in China is larger than in the United States. 【小题 3】 How many measures are mentioned in the last paragraph in order to reduce the high housing prices A Four. B Three. C Two. D One. 【小题 4】 What is th
47、e main idea of this passage A The housing price in China is so high that the gover nment should do something useful to prevent it. B There are some bubbles in Chinese real estate market. C The average housing price in China is even higher than in the United States. D Chinese government issued a set
48、of policies that aimed to benefit the public. 答案： 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 A Dior was born in Normandy in 1905, and his familys original plans for him included a career in the diplomatic (外交的 ) service, but by the time he was twenty three, with his parents money， he opened a small art gallery in Paris By 1931， the money had
