三．阅读理解（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）

A

Mr Darcy had been standing near enough for Elizabeth to overhear (偷听) a talk between him and Mr Bingley, who came from the dance for a few minutes, to force his friend to join it.

“Come, Darcy,” said he. “I must have you dance. I hate to see you standing about by yourself in this stupid manner. You had much better dance.”

“I certainly shall not. You know how I hate it, unless I am particularly familiar (熟悉的) with my partner. Your sisters are engaged (订婚), and there is not another woman in the room who it would not be a punishment to me to stand up with.”

“I would not be so hard to please as you do,” cried Mr Bingley, “Upon my honour, I never met with so many pleasant girls in my life as I have this evening; and there are several of them you see uncommonly pretty!”

“You are dancing with the only handsome girl in the room,” said Mr Darcy, looking at the eldest Miss Benne.

“Oh! She is the most beautiful creature I have ever seen! But there is one of her sisters sitting down just behind you, who is very pretty. Do let me ask my partner to introduce you.”

“Which do you mean?” and turning round he looked for a moment at Elizabeth, till catching her eye, he drew back his own and coldly said, “She is tolerable (可以容忍的), but not handsome enough to interest me; I am in no humour at present to give consequence (结论) to your ladies who are slighted (轻视) by other men. You had better return to your partner and enjoy her smiles, for you are wasting your time with me.”

Mr Bingley followed his advice. Darcy walked off; and Elizabeth remained with no very good feelings towards him. 26. Who was Miss Benne?

A. Mr Bingley’s sister. B. Mr Darcy’s sister. C. Mr Darcy’s friend. D. Elizabeth’s sister.

27. What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. Mr Darcy didn’t want to dance.

B. Mr Bingley wanted Mr Darcy to dance with Elizabeth. C. Elizabeth was waiting for Mr Darcy to invite her to dance.

D. Elizabeth wanted to hear the talk between Mr Bingley and Mr Darcy. 28. Which of the following is true?

A. Mr Darcy didn’t like dancing with girls. B. Mr Darcy was a very self-proud young man. C. There weren’t many beautiful girls at the party.

D. The girls were looked down upon by the men at the party.

B

Forgiving (宽恕) someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits (好处). When you think of forgiveness, you probably don’t think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.

When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colours and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less clear and may be more dangerous. That’s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and writer of Forgive for Good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.

The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less sadness or hopelessness. They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.

So it doesn’t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it’s worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.

Forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it’s

OK. Instead, it’s a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.

29. The writer of the passage tries to make his point clear by ______. A. mentioning some studies B. sharing his own experience C. raising some questions D. mentioning some health problems

30. The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to ______. A. show how to control oneself B. introduce a famous professor

C. support his point on anger and hatred

D. tell the readers cartoon characters are powerful when they get angry 31. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage? A. It’s not easy to know if you are angry.

B. People who are able to forgive feel less tired. C. It’s hard to forgive someone who hurts you. D. You can let your anger go by breathing deeply. 32. The best title for this passage is probably ______. A. Forgiving Others Is Hard B. Anger Is Bad for Health C. Learning to Forgive Is Important D. Forgiveness Is Good for Health

C

“Face it, Andy. You sold your soul the day you put on that first pair of Jimmy Choo’s.” That line from the movie The Devil Wears Prada is an example showing how a shoemaker has become famous in the fashion world.

Jimmy Choos (Zhou Yangjie) is a native Malaysian of Chinese origin (出身), born in 1961 into a family of shoemakers. He created his first pair of shoes at age 11. His family couldn’t pay for his schooling, so he dropped out at a young age. He had to work with his father to support the family. But his dream to be a fashion designer never disappeared, so he did all he could to enter an art college and finally took up a position in the fashion world through his talent and willpower.

Choo graduated from a college in London and had a small workshop there. He hit the international fashion scene when Vogue magazine described his designs in eight pages in 1988. His work was immediately popular and got love and support from Diana, Princess of Wales.

Jimmy Choo shoes are known for their very high heels (鞋跟) and pointed toes. However, he does some flats and lower-heeled shoes for other women. Choo co-founded Jimmy Choo Ltd. with Tamara Mellon, UK Vogue editor, but left the company in 2001.

Jimmy Choo shops have opened around the world, so his designs are more accessible to those who want a designer shoe, and can afford his prices. Choo also has a website where shoppers can view his ready-to-wear designs. The brand (牌子)

of Jimmy Choo has been comparable to top brands, like Channel, LV, etc. But it’s still young and has a bright future.

We can’t imagine how hard it is for Choo to stand out in the worldwide fashion! He must have made greater efforts and had more difficulties than others. And so he did. So stop complaining about why good luck isn’t always falling on you and devote yourselves to your work now. 33. What is Paragraph 1 written for?

A. Comparing movies with fashion. B. Showing the shoes are popular.

C. Introducing the following passage. D. Attracting readers’ attention to the shoes.

34. When he was young, Jimmy Choo ______. A. had got no education

B. showed his talent in making shoes C. made himself a famous fashion designer D. was born in China and then moved to Malaysia

35. What do the underlined words “more accessible” mean in Paragraph 5? A. Easier to get.

B. Easier to spread. C. Harder to imagine. D. Harder to

accept.

五．任务型填空

Do you feel no one really understands you? Well, \"Pepper\" could be about to change all that. Pepper is actually a robot and considered as the world's first with the ability to read feelings. What is about Pepper?

Pepper doesn't look much like its name. Standing under four-feet tall with a computer fixed to its chest, it has human-like hands.

Although it has the high-pitched voice, Pepper is able to talk about everything from the weather, to more difficult topics like the latest fluctuations(动荡) in the stock markets. Yet the greatest difference is that Pepper can use eye contact when meeting people.

Robots like Pepper would change our life the same as the PC, Internet and mobile phones.

How Pepper reads your moods

Using its feeling functions, Pepper can reply to people around -- making jokes, dancing and even rapping (in Japanese).

Pepper can study facial expressions, human voice tones and body language , then reply by itself.

Pepper is powered by love inside a family. It not only makes jokes and makes them laugh but also tries its best in natural disasters. It can help them and also comfort those people who are sad or lonely, When Pepper goes on sale

Pepper will go on sale in Japan for around US$2,000 in February 2015. For now, several Peppers are at Softbank stores in Tokyo for people to see.
