It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving-away m
13、akes life so much more exciting. One discovery I made about giving-away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special del
14、ivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I peeded a post-office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long
15、 waiting list. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard our conversation. “Wasnt it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?“ I said it was. “Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if
16、we have to make one for you. You dont know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints. “31 At first the author looked upon life as a process of getting. He formed this view of life because _.（A）other people were selfish（B） he thought it exciting to get from others（C）
17、of his early education（D）of his character32 The author wrote a note of appreciation to the post office because_.（A）he knew what such a note would mean to the post office（B） he had discovered giving-away made life all the more exciting（C） he believed he would get something back by doing so（D）the post
18、man delivered an important letter in time33 When the author needed a post-office box, _.（A）he wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation（B） he asked to put his name on a waiting list（C） he tried to see the postmaster（D）many had applied for post-office boxes before him34 The postmaster promised _.（A
19、）to make a new post-office box for the author（B） to let the author have a post-office box（C） to include the authors name on the list（D）to deliver the authors mail to his home34 The Need for HolidaysYouve no doubt heard people say how much they “need“ a holiday, when what they really mean is that the
20、y want one. Certainly, people working under pressure feel a very strong desire to escape from work and become less tight during their holidays, and experience a changed environment(环境). For this reason, holidays away from home are now seen by most people today as office work and mental, rather than
21、physical, tasks. These people may seek much more energy taking activities while on holiday, rather than simply lying on a beach.Once people become used to going on holiday, taking holidays becomes a habit. Even in a recession(经济萧条时期), for many people the holiday is one of the last things to be given
22、 up, and indeed many workers have chosen to spend some of their last pay when being laid off on a holiday, perhaps to give themselves “lift“ before facing a gloomy(暗淡)future.Perhaps we dont like to admit it, but most of us also enjoy showing off about the places we have been to, and the lovely tanne
23、d skins we have got. The idea of tanning, however, is becoming less attractive than it was. It has become quite common that many tourists are now able to afford holidays in the tans; and although we join a tan together with health(and it is true that a certain amount of sunshine gives us a feeling o
24、f being healthy), it has been fully shown that sunshine, especially when received over a short, focused period of time, results in high danger of skin problems, as well as drying out ones skin and leading to more fines on you face later in life.35 More and more people choose to have holidays because
25、 they_.（A）hate working indoors all the time（B） want to get away from work（C） love enjoying the beauties of nature（D）become rich and want a better life36 When office people have holidays, they often_.（A）lie on the beach and enjoy sunshine（B） spend more than they can afford（C） think about their work o
26、n the beach（D）choose to do more physical exercise37 A holiday may_ when one has to face some difficulties in life.（A）cheer someone up（B） help someone find a job（C） be the last thing to be given up（D）bring good luck to someone38 From this passage we learn that some people can not live without_.（A）tan
27、（B） a job（C） a pay（D）a holiday38 In order to learn a foreign language well, it is necessary to overcome the fear of making mistakes. If the primary goal of language use is communication, mistakes are secondary considerations that may be dealt with gradually as awareness of those mistakes increases.
28、On the other hand, students should not ignore their mistakes. The language learner may observe how native speakers express themselves, and how native expressions differ from the way the learner might say them. For example, a Spanish speaker, who has been saying “I do it“ to express willingness to do
29、 something in the immediate future, could by interacting with native speakers of English, observe that native speakers actually say “Ill do it“ . The resulting discrepancy can serve as a basis for the student to modify his way of using the present tense in English. But a student who is unwilling to
30、interact in the first place would lose this opportunity to learn by trial and error.39 According to the passage, the present tense in English is _.（A）not used to express a desire to do something in the immediate future（B） used with some verbs but not with others to express future intention（C） basica
31、lly the same in English as it is in Spanish（D）speaking without regard to native speakers40 According to the passage, language learners can reduce the number of their mistakes by_.（A）asking native speakers for explanations（B） reading good books in the foreign language（C） comparing their speech with t
32、hat of native speakers（D）speaking without regard to native speakers41 According to the passage, foreign language students should not worry too much about making mistakes because_.（A）native speakers like foreign students who try to learn their language（B） communication is the primary goal of language
33、 learning（C） native speakers will ignore their mistakes（D）everyone makes mistakes when trying to communicate in a strange language42 The authors major conclusion about the function of mistakes in foreign language learning is that _.（A）mistakes are not important in the process of learning a language（
34、B） learners are often very afraid of making mistakes（C） making mistakes can help the learner discover the rules of the language（D）native speakers often do not tell foreign language learners about their mistakes42 A.
