30、 is an old cobbler (修鞋匠) with a shop in the Marais, a historic area in Paris. When I took him my shoes, he at first told me, “I havent time. Take them to the other fellow on the main street; hell fix them for you right away.” But Id had my eye on his shop for a long time. Just looking at his bench l

31、oaded with tools and pieces of leather, I knew he was a skilled craftsman. “No,” I replied, “the other fellow cant do it well.” “The other fellow” is one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys “while-U-wait”without knowing much about mending shoes or making key. They work carelessly, and w

32、hen they have finished sewing back a sandal strap (鞋带) you might as well just throw away the pair. The man saw I wouldnt give in, and he smiled. He wiped his hands on his blue apron (围裙), looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said, “Come back in a week.” I wa

33、s about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boots off a shelf. “See what I can do?” he said with pride, “Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work.” When I got back out into the street, the world seemed brand-new to me. He was something out of an ancient legend, this old craftsman

34、with his way of speaking familiarly, his strange, dusty felt hat, his funny accent from who-knows-where and, above all, his pride in his craft. These are times when nothing is important but the bottom line, when you can do things in any old way as long as it “pays”, when, in short, people look on wo

35、rk as a path to ever-increasing consumption (消费) rather than a way to realize their own abilities. In such a period it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done.51. Which of the following is TRUE about the old cobbler? A. He was equipped wit

36、h the best repairing tools. B. He was the only cobbler in the Marais. C. He was proud of his skills. D. He was a native Parisian.52.

This story wants to tell us that _. A. craftsmen make a lot of money B. whatever you do, do it well C. crafts

38、men need self-respect D. people are born equalBTwo brothers once decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “We are going to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the br

39、others volunteered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling the brothers that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and interesting stones. He removed the lid and showed the wonderful cont

40、ents to the scoffing（嘲笑） visitors. Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don't dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!”Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is what a goal is for-to cause us to move in the direction we h

41、ave chosen. In other words, to set us to digging!But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every relationship will endure（长久持续）. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not every endeavor(努力) will be completed. Not every dream will be rea

42、lized. But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging that life is lived. And I believe it is joy in the journey that truly matter

43、s.55. The best title for this passage would be _. A. Joy in the Journey B. Realize Your Goal C. Dont Laugh at Other People D. Dig a Hole through the Earth56.

44、el to another end of the earth. D. To dig out a jar under the ground.57. Which of the following is NOT the reason why the older boys laughed at the two brothers? A.

45、 D. The two brothers lacked knowledge of the earth.58. The passage is written to _. A. tell readers a story B. teach readers a lesson C. praise the two brothers warmly D. told readers how to set a goalCEveryone knows you must exercise regularly to keep good health. Indeed, staying physically fit is

46、a big part of our culture, we consider (or rightly so) that healthy people are attractive people. Since most of us want to be attractive, there is no shortage of exercise clubs, training videos, magazines and books offering to help us stay physically fit. Unfortunately, however, our culture doesnt p

47、lace the same emphasis (重视) on mental fitness. Although we tend to like men and women with strong, healthy-looking bodies, we dont have the same degree of respect or attraction for smart, educated, mentally healthy people. This is a pity, because there are great rewards for people who have developed

48、 the ability to think well. If your mind is well trained and flexible (灵活的), you will be able to understand a great deal of what happens around you. And if you are also well educatedthat is, if you understand basic science, mathematics, music, art, literature, history and so onyou will find it much

49、easier to make good decisions throughout your life. Over the long run, this leads to a sense of control over your destiny (命运) and a much better life than otherwise (in another way). People who are poorly educated or who dont think wellthat is, people who are not mentally fitsee things differently.

50、Their world is controlled by mysterious, often malevolent (恶意的) forces. Such people live within a system they will never master, forced to follow rules they will never understand. Although it may not be obvious, most spend their lives being manipulated (控制) by others. They are told what to do, what

51、to think, how to spend their money, and what they should and should not aspire (渴望) to in life. In my opinion, if you want to live well, you must be able to use your mind well. For this reason, I want you to be able to concentrate, to solve problems, to understand complex ideas, and to think clearly

52、 and quickly. Such skills will make it easier for you to make informed decisions, understand current events, choose good friends, manage your money well, make wise long-term decisions and appreciate music, art and literature. The key to developing such skills is to enjoy learning, and to have the ab

53、ility and motivation to teach yourself.59. The writer of the passage feels disappointed that _. A. too little has been done to help people to keep physically fit B. too much has been done to help people to keep physically fit C. mentally healthy people are not as popular as physically healthy people

54、 D. physically healthy people are not as popular as mentally healthy people60. The underlined word “this” in the 3rd paragraph means _. A. the understanding of a great deal of what goes on around you B. the understanding of basic science and mathematics C. good training in body and mind D. being abl

55、e to make good decisions in life61. The writer of this passage thinks those who are not mentally fit _. A. live a poor and mysterious life  B. cant control over their life C. often do what others do  D. enjoy being fooled and ruled62 . The best title of the passage will most probably be _.

56、 A. Train Your Body  B. Train Your Mind C. Make Informed Decisions D. Think Hard and Work HardDIf youve been joining in chat room(聊天室) conversations（谈话）, or trading e-mail with net pals(网友), you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the wo

57、rld, every night children and their elders are “talking” onlinemany of them are talking at the same time.Its fast: trying talking to six people once. Its convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. Theres ne

58、ither time nor space for explanations. Why waste valuable time telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB (=be right back) will do?Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (=pardon me for jumping in).Interested in whom youre talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pals age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal. If something makes you laugh, say youre OTF (=on the floor), or LOL (=laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTFL (=rolling on the floor laughing). An
