回答题Text 2
Every year for more than a decade I"ve gone with some good male friends to the music festi- val. Women are not invited， but they do prepare a picnic for our trip. The better the food， the more likely we are to continue our annual tradition and give them peace at least one week out of the year.
When we"re not eating， we sit around in circles and talk about manly stuff: women， mostly.After years of this special journey I have figured out women are different from us， especially when it comes to how we communicate. Women don"t need to manufacture reasons to chat， but guys need excuses like outings or organized events.
And I"ve noticed that when women are in groups there can be several conversations going on at once. When men are in a group， one man talks， and everybody else listens. It"s like bluegrass jamming in a way; one musician plays the lead， and the rest try to follow.
I"ve had more heartfelt conversations with other men at the festival than I"ve had at any other time in my life， partly because there are no women there， and partly because we"re all a little drunk. It was males bonding over whatever parts we still had left. The festival is also the only place I"ve ever cried in front of other men.
As the years have slipped by， some in our group have lost parents and grandparents， some have divorced， and others have changed careers， not always on purpose. It seems that every year something distressing has happened to at least one member of our crew， and the rest of us are there to listen and offer support.
I hope that this column can offer some comfort to women: if your man heads out on a bowling or poker night with the guys， be happy. Chances are good he"s not fleeing you and the kids， but he"s running toward the conversations he can only have with other men， and he"ll come home the better for it.
It is implied in the first paragraph that 查看材料
A.the trip is a relief for both men and women________
B.the trip will continue in spite of everything
C.the quality of the picnic needs improvement
D.the women can rarely get peace themselves
I believe in people, in sheer, unadulterated humanity. I believe in listening to what people have to say, in helping them to achieve the things which they want and the things which they need. Naturally, there are people who behave like beasts, who kill, who cheat, who lie and who destroy. But without a belief in man and a faith in his possibilities for the future, there can be no hope for the future, but only bitterness that the past has gone. I believe we must, each of us, make a philosophy by which we can live. There are people who make a philosophy out of believing in nothing. They say there is no truth, that goodness is simply cleverness in disguising your own selfishness. They say that life is simply the short gap in between an unpleasant birth and an inevitable death. There are others who say that man is born into evil and sinfulness and that life is a process of purification through suffering and that death is the reward for having suffered.
I believe these philosophies are false. The most important thing in life is the way it is lived, and there is no such thing as an abstract happiness, an abstract goodness or morality, or an abstract anything, except in terms of the person who believes and who acts. There is only the single human being who lives and who, through every moment of his own personal living experience, is being happy or unhappy, noble or base, wise or unwise, or simply existing.
The question is: How can these individual moments of human experience be filled with the richness of a philosophy which can sustain the individual in his own life？ Unless we give part of ourselves away, unless we can live with other people and understand them and help them, we are missing the most essential part of our own human lives.
There are as many roads to the attainment of wisdom and goodness as there are people who undertake to walk them. There are as many solid truths on which we can stand as there are people who can search them out and who will stand on them. There are as many ideas and ideals as there are men of good will who will hold them in their minds and act them in their lives.
A. listening to people's opinions
B. revolutionary changes
C. being happy or unhappy
D. the way it is lived
E. we give part of ourselves away
F. many roads to the attainment of wisdom
G. as a short gap between birth and death
We are living in a periods of
The U. S. Army Infantry (步兵), which calls Fort Benning home, has fought in every major conflict involving the nation's military. Yet developing a program for effective infantry training came neither quickly nor easily. The first movement to shape the country's foot soldiers into a superior force came more than 200 years ago at the request of the general who became the first president of the United States.
Revolutionary forces commanded by General George Washington were barely surviving as they camped at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, during the winter of 1777. Washington realized that his soldiers, shivering in rags. Needed better training if there were to be any hope of winning against the well-schooled British army. He sought advice from the respected Prussian (普鲁士) general, Baron Fredreich von Steuben.
Von Steuben agreed to help, but recognized the huge challenge he faced to change the loose band of rebels into a disciplined, well-organized force. As one observer at the time noted, the colonial army "was the finest body of troops he had ever seen out of step '. Von 8teuben's own assessment was that the Continental Army was a shame. "There was no uniformity of drill, no similarity of organization , and no teamwork of any kind ", wrote Leroy Yarborough, first lieutenant (中尉) of infantry , in an unpublished 1931 history of Fort Benning. No two companies drilled alike. And they all drilled poorly.
But Von Steuben was resourceful and energetic and known for his persuasiveness. He established standard drill exercises and taught them patiently, but persistently to the troops. Once he saw progress, he chose those most skilled in military formations to demonstrate for the rest to imitate. This practice of using the best troops to model techniques and tactics become fundamental in military training, continuing long after the Revolutionary War. For his efforts, Von Steuben is known as the "Father of the U. S. Infantry."
The first two paragraphs tell us ______.
A．how Von Steuben became the general of the American infantry
B．how the revolutionary forces came to be commanded by Washington
C．how Washington set about asking von Steuben to train his soldiers
D．how poorly organized the Americans were compared to the British army
For many of us summer is a special time for forming new friendships. Today millions of Americans vacation abroad, and they go not only to see new sights but also with the hope of meeting new people. No one really expects a vacation trip to produce a close friend, but the beginning of a friendship is possible.
The word "friend" can be applied to a wide range of relationships—to someone one has known for a few weeks in a new place, to a fellow worker, to a childhood playmate, to a man or woman, to a trusted confidant (知己) .
The reasons why many Americans move from place to place are as follows except______.
A．saving money
B．getting a better job
C．going to college
D．finding a place to spend the rest of the life

Advertising has been among England's biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps the reason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer.
At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerance and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that it confers(赋予) status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness.
Other manufacturers find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason or another, some alteration seems called for—how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.
Which of the following can best describe the author's attitude toward modern advertising？
A．Indifferent.
B．Shocked.
C．Disappearing.
D．Approving.
Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings--battles lost and won, kings or rulers overthrown or killed--took months and even years to travel from one country to another. The news passed by word of mouth and was never accurate. Today we can read in our newspapers of important e vents that occur in faraway countries on the same day they happen.
Apart from supplying news from all over the world, newspapers give us a lot of other useful in formation. There are weather reports, radio, television and film guides, book reviews, stories, and, of course, advertisements. There are all sorts of advertisements. The bigger ones are put in by large companies to bring attention to their products. They pay the newspapers thousands of dollars for their advertising space, but it is worth the money, for news of their products goes into almost every home in the country. For those who produce newspapers, advertisements are also important. Money earned from advertisements makes it possible for them to sell their newspapers at a low price and still make a profit.
The habit of reading newspapers is ______.
A．widespread
B．found among a few families
C．not popular
D．uncommon

Let US take a look at the chief thing in the story—the human body itself．A human body appears to be rather soft and delicate，compared with that of a wild animal，but it is actually surprisingly strong．Indeed，its very softness and looseness are an advantage；it makes man good at moving about and falling about in safety．Man is the most skillful in movement of all living things of his own size，because he can do so many different things with his limbs．Man’s games show how he can control his own body．No other land creature can swim as skillfully as man；none has such varied grace；very few live as long as he；none is so strong in its natural resistance to disease．Therefore man has a great advantage in his battle against the risks of damage and death that threaten him．It is difficult to kill him as long as he is fed and in good health．Yet every day thousands of people die needlessly，even though man is naturally strong，because of those two killers，disease and starvation，with the battle．
Old age？No one can live forever，so one might’suppose that quite a large number of oldpeople would come to the end of their days every year．There is，however，another thing to re-member．During the time it has taken you to read this page，a considerable number of babies have been born somewhere in the wodd—one is born every one and a quarter seconds!Of these babies，one group can be expected to have a good long life of about seventy years，because they were lucky enough to be born in countries where living standards are high．
The deadliest of all killers are starvation and disease．We cannot be content until we have mastered them．To do so is one of the most important tasks of our times．
The softness and looseness of man’s body are an advantage because it__________ ． 查看材料
A.makes him strong
B.makes him resistant to diseases
C.helps him to avoid injury
D.keeps him in good health
Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want so say it well，but he wants it to be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand-he wants to teach them. and he wants them to learn from him. What visual artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain，because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors，not words. They seem to feel that a certain selection of shapes and colors，out of the countless billions possible，is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors，or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist. Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in motion and repose：their choices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at，that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary artists might say that they merely choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern，that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects. If one painter chooses to paint a gangrenous(生坏疽的)leg and another a lake in moonlight，each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something，showing us something，emphasizing something-all of which mean that，consciously or unconsciously，he is trying to teach us.
All artists are common in that______.
A. they use shapes and colors instead of words
B. they are trying to teach the public
C. what they want to teach is difficult to explain
D. they want to learn from the public
