14、much fun to travel on one of the old sailing ships. Life was hard for both passengers and crew. In the 17th century, sailing ships were small and roiled(摇荡)heavily in rough seas, so most of the passengers were seasick. There were no toilets, and the spaces below deck where passengers had to stay dur
15、ing gales(狂风)were often not more than 5 foot high. Water was scarce and the little water they got was brown and smelt terrible. Food was a problem, toothere was only salted meat, ship s biscuits and cheese, but the cheese was so hard that sailors often made buttons out of it for their jackets and tr
16、ousers. There were no vegetables or fruit, so the people on board often fell ill. The sailors, however, were a bit better off than the passengers. They each had a bottle of beer a day, and they needed. The work they had to do was hard and dangerous. Courage was needed, for the heavy sails had to be
17、set and taken down in all kinds of weather, and quite often sailors were swept overboard in a gale. Almost the worst thing about the voyages was the time they took up to 70 days for the journey across the Atlantic. Not surprisingly, everybody was overjoyed when they at last approached land and stepp
18、ed ashore. But some ships never arrived. 31 In the 17th century_.（A）life on old sailing ships was enjoyable（B） people enjoyed sailing old. ships in rough seas（C） most of the passengers felt comfortable when the ship was rolling（D）it was very painful for both passengers and crew during the voyage32 T

22、all of them were excited35 A lot of people are their own enemies. They regard themselves as unlikely to succeed in college and often feel that there have been no accomplishments in their lives. In my first year of college especially, I saw people get themselves down all too quickly. There were two s
23、tudents in my class who failed the first test and seemed to give up immediately. From that day on, they walked into the classroom carrying defeat on their shoulders the way other students carried textbooks under their arms. Both students hang on until about mid-term. When they disappeared for good,
24、no one took much notice, for they had already disappeared in spirit after that first test. They are not the only people in whom I have seen the self-doubt do its work. I have really wanted to shake them by the shoulders and say, “You are not dead. Be proud and pleased that you have brought yourself
25、here to college. Be someone. Breathe. Hope. Act. “Such people should not use self-doubts as an excuse for not trying. They should pull themselves together and get to work. They should start taking notes in class and trying to learn. Above all, they should not give up without even trying. 36 The unde

It listed all the tradesmen in each village, and i
38、t was impressive to see the past variety of services which were available on one s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside. Nowadays a traveler in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the villagers or selling antique
39、s to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. On the surface, there has been a decline of village commerce, but its power is still remarkable. Our local grocer s shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women
40、sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local newswhile doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supermarket. And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value. His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time. H
41、is assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing. The richer customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorstep
42、s within an hour.
