A

Have you ever heard the saying “All roads lead to Rome”? At one time, this was pretty much

true. During the Roman Empire, lots of roads were built in order to move armies, send messages

by courier (

信使

), and make trade easier.

The network of Roman roads was begun in 312 BC. It was demanded that the roads be built

strong

so

that

they

would

not

fall

down.

Roman

soldiers,

supervised

(

监督

)

by

engineers,

laid

down the roads in a special pattern of layers. There were all together 4 layers, which was made of

different materials, such as sand, rocks, stones and so on.

Also,

Roman

roads

were

cambered

(

拱形

).

This

means

that

they

were

built

higher

in

the

middle

than

on

the

edges, allowing

rainwater

to

run

off,

which

prevented

flooding.

We

use

the

same technique in building roads today. The Romans also laid out roads over hills when necessary,

setting them down in a zigzag (

之字形的

)pattern to make the road rise gradually.

All Roman roads had milestones (

里程碑

), placed every thousand paces (a Roman mile). The

milestones told when the road was built, who was emperor at the time, the road’s destination, how

far

the

traveler

was

from

the

destination,

and

how

many

miles

had

been

traveled

since

the

beginning of the road. This information was a great help to travelers.

Because of their excellence in construction, it really is no surprise that many parts of Roman

road still exist today. These roadways are one of the most impressive achievements of the Roman

Empire.

21. The following description about Roman roads is true EXCEPT _____.

A. Roman roads were built by the Roman soldiers directed by the engineers

B. Roman roads could prevent flooding using the techniqu

e we don’t use today

C. Roman roads had milestones that were placed every Roman mile

D. Roman roads still exist today as an impressive achievement of Roman Empire

22. What information can you find on the milestones?

A. The builders of the road.

B. The materials used in building roads.

C. The distance from one city.

D. The time spent in building roads.

23. The passage mainly ________.

A. explains the saying “All roads lead to Rome”

B. praises ancient Romans for their great achievements

C. shows how great the Roman Empire was

D. introduces the construction of the Roman roads

B

After

having

worked

in

the

University

of

Maryland

for

three

years,

I

got

a

job

offer

from

another

university--

Lynn

University.

I

left

my

letter

of

offer

on

my

present

boss’s

desk,

turned

around, and closed the door quietly. I was expecting a call from my boss saying congratulations,

which would show her approval of my leaving.

In

the

afternoon,

my

boss

called

me,

saying,

“Can

we

meet

tomorrow?”

That

was

a

good

signal. The next day, I met

with my boss. She said, “Nicholas, we want you. What do you want?” I

said, “Boss, I deserve a significant pay raise this year due to my outstanding performance. I think I

need a 10% pay raise next year as a condition for me to stay here.” My boss said, “No

problem.'”

When I left her office, I called Lynn University and told them that I was going to get a 10%

pay raise. They had to give me 10% more than their original pay offer in order for me to accept the

job. The new boss told me that he was willing to give me more, but I would feel very bad working

at this university with such a high pay. I would win a battle, but I would lose a war. He said,

problem is that your colleague will earn less than you, so you will feel guilty and uncomfortable.

But, I can still give you 5% more than the original offer.

I delivered this massage to my present boss, and she told me that she would give me another

.

5% pay raise if I promised to refuse this new job offer. On top of that, she would strongly support

my

early

promotion

from

assistant

professor

to

associate

professor.

According

to

the

university

policy, you must take at least 6 years to get promoted. That was my third year of employment at

this

university.

After

refusing

the

new

job

offer,

I

finally

enjoyed

both

a

pay

raise

and

early

promotion.

24. In paragraph 2, what does Nicholas mean by “That was a good signal”?

A. His boss would approve his leaving the University of Maryland.

B. He would leave his present job and work for Lynn University.

C. His boss would talk with him about a possible pay offer.

D. His friends would congratulate him on getting a new job offer.

25. Why did the new boss agree to another 5% raise when Nicholas asked for 10% the next

day?

A .He did not have the right to make such a big pay offer.

B. he did not want Nicholas to earn more than he did.

C. Nicholas was not experienced enough to get such a raise.

D. Nicholas would not feel good for earning too much more than others.

26. How much pay raise did the author finally get as a result of refusing the new job offer?

A. 5%

B. 10%

C. 15%

D. 20%

27. In the text, the author mainly tells his experience of _______.

A. earning a pay raise

B. refusing a job offer

C. applying for a new position

D. making decisions in the workplace

C

Horton

At first glance, there is little in Horton to attract people. The other nearby towns have much

more

to

offer:

Bradfield

has

its

river

and

historic

buildings,

while

Newtown

has

shops

and

entertainment.

The

buildings

of

Horton

look

dirty

and

unloved.

For

shops,

there

is

a

small

supermarket,

a

few

bargain

shops,

a

bakery

which,

strangely,

does

not

sell

bread

and

a

florist

which

has

one

stand

of

sad-looking

flowers.

Even

so,

Horton

has

several

advantages

over

its

neighbouring towns.

Firstly, it has a country park. Four thousand years ago, this was an important fort. There are

no

historic

remains

here

now,

but

there

are

wonderful

views

over

the

countryside.

On

sunny

weekends you can often see kids out with their parents, kicking balls or flying kites.

Ther

e aren’t many job opportunities in Horton, and the roads to nearby cities aren’t really fast,

but there are excellent rail links. You can be in London in an hour and a half, and other cities are

less than an hour away. That means that parents can earn a good salary and still get home in time

to spend the evenings with their families. Houses in Horton aren’t pretty, but they’re functional

and cheap. The streets are quiet and safe, and there are plenty of parks and playgrounds. It has a

library, three primary

schools and a secondary school, St. Mark’s. It is friendly and offers a wide

range of subjects and activities to children of all abilities and backgrounds. The town also has a

swimming and a sports center, and the community halls hold regular clubs and events for people

of all ages.

28. What is the writer’s main purpose?

A. To explain what tourists can do in Horton.

B. To explain why Horton is a good place to live in.

C. To explain why Horton is not as pleasant as other towns.

D. To describe the history of Horton.

29. Which part of Horton does the writer find disappointing?

A. the shops

B. country park

C. transport links

D. the schools

30. Which of the following is NOT the advantage of Horton?

A. plenty of parks and playgrounds

B. historical buildings

C. the quiet and safe streets

D. functional and cheap houses

31. What advantages does Horton bring to workers?

A. There are plenty of jobs available in the town.

B. You can drive to nearby cities in a short time.

C. You can get to several cities quickly by train.

D. Working conditions are better here than in other towns.

D

According

to

researchers,

money

can

buy

happiness,

but

only

if

you

spend

it

on

someone

.

else.

Spending as little as $$5 a day on someone else could significantly bring you happiness, the

team at the University of British Columbia and Harvard Business School found.

Their

experiments

on

more

than

630

Americans

showed

they

were

measurably

(

适度地

)

happier

when

they

spent

money

on

others--even

if

they

thought

spending

the

money

on

themselves would make them happier.

“We wanted to test our theory that how people spend their money is at least as important as

how

much

money

they

earn,”

said

Elizabeth

Dunn,

a

psychologist

at

the

University

of

British

Columbia.

They

asked

their

600

volunteers

first

to

rate

their

general

happiness,

report

their

annual

income and detail their monthly spending including bills, gifts for themselves, gifts for others and

donations to charity.

“Regardless

of

how

much

income

each

person

made,

t

hose

who

spent

money

on

others

reported greater happiness, while those who spent more on themselves did not,” Dunn said in a

statement.

Dunn’s

team

also

surveyed

16

employees

at

a

company

in

Boston

before

and

after

they

received an annual profit-sharing bonus of between $$3,000 and $$8,000.

“Employees

who

devoted

more

of

their

bonus

to

pro

-social

(

有益社会的

)

spending

experienced greater happiness after receiving the bonus, and the manner in which they spent that

bonus was a more important predictor of their happi

ness than the size of the bonus itself,” they

wrote in their report, published in the journal Science.

They gave their volunteers $$5 or $$20 and half got clear instructions on how to spend it. Those

who spent the money on someone or something else reported feeling happier about it.

“These findings suggest that very minor alterations in spending allocations (

分配

) --as little

as $$5--

may be enough to produce real gains in happiness on a given day,” Dunn said.

32. According to the passage, ________.

A. the more money you spend on others, the happier you are

B. spending money on others can bring you happiness

C. Elizabeth Dunn is a psychologist from Harvest Business School

D. six hundred volunteers took part in the experiment

33. The 16 employees mentioned in the passage _________.

A. were given clear instructions on how to spend the bonus

B. had more happiness than the size of the bonus itself

C. experienced greater happiness after receiving their bonus

D. felt happier after they contributed much of the bonus to charities

34. Dunn’s statement suggested that

________.

A. those who spent money on others felt happier no matter how much they earned

B. those who spent more money on themselves felt happier

C. people thought spending money could make themselves happier

D. the money spent was as important as the money earned

35. The best title of this passage is ________.

A. Experiment on Money Spending

B. Devoting Your Money to Charities

C. Spending Money on Others Makes One Happier

D. Bonus and Pro-social Spending

从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多

余选项。

Have you ever been in a situation where you have done something just to make someone else

happy?

You

think

that

you

are

making

yourself

happy.

36

I

have

done

that

many

times

because

I

wanted

to

impress

people

or

I

thought

that

if

I

made

someone

else

happy

it

would

certainly make me happy. I understand that all of us want our close friends and family to be proud

of us, so we work hard in school or in our careers to meet their expectations.

37

But if

you are trying to realize other people’s dreams without keeping yourself satisfied, you will never

be happy.

So you have to be clear and honest with yourself about what you want in your life. If you are

honest

with

yourself,

you

will

be

more

optimistic.

38

You

feel

like

you

won’t

need

to

achieve something for someone else.

39

They fear to be rejected (

排斥

) by others. They think and say “If I choose this

job

or

career

path,

that

person

will

think

I

am

out

of

my

mind”,

or

“I

really

wan

t

to

start

this

business but those people will think that I won’t make any money”.

40

Don’t think this

way. If you follow other people’s wishes but cannot be true to yourself, you will have a hard time

feeling great about yourself.

A. There is nothing wrong with that.

B. So why don’t I follow what they say?

C. And you will develop a drive from your heart.

D. So we should try our best to realize our dreams.

E. But we sometimes have to meet expectations from others.

F. The truth is that you are really trying to make someone else happy.

G

. Why do so many people want to live their dreams for someone else?

months

in England,

was quite ____44____ , actually, until the end of ____45____ and the night of the final oral test.

pm,

myself

heart so no one would think I was an inexperienced tester. The ____49____ is, I actually locked

hard

to____53____

the

bathroom door, but failed.

a

thoughtful

person,

and

started

____54____

;

“Diana’s

locked

in

the

bathroom!”Shame had fallen upon me!

____55____ the course director, the secretary and some

teachers were outside the bathroom trying to get me out, and, to my ____56____ , my students

gathered outside too, happily saying things like “Aren’t we

____57____

!No test today !” All I

could do was ____58____ , feeling miserable and utterly stupid. The door finally opened, and my

entirely

____59____

was

waiting

for

me

outside,

naughty

smiles

on

their

faces.

“

____60____

!

Teacher.” they said, “we know you are human too!”

They all passed their test. True to the Brazilian style, we all went out for a beer afterward,

and laughed the whole thing off.
