AOn a cold winter day, many years ago, a French art teacher named Pierre Chevalier got on a train in Lyon to go to Paris. When he started his journey, he did not know that it was the beginning of almost 40 years of accidents and near death experiences.During the journey, the train fell into an icy river, killing 12 passengers. Chevalier managed to swim back to the river bank. He only had a broken leg.Two years later, Chevalier was on a plane from Paris to Moscow when a door suddenly opened and he fell out. A few minutes later, the plane crashed(坠毁); 27 people were killed. Chevalier was so lucky that he landed in a haystack(干草堆).A few years later, he was hit by a bus, but again had no serious injuries. Then a year after that, he was driving on a mountain road when he saw a truck coming straight at him. He drove the car off the road, jumped out, landed in a tre e—and watched his car fall 100 meters down themountain.“There are two ways you can look at it,” Chevalier said. “I’m either the world’s unluckiest man, or the world’s luckiest.” When a reporter asked Chevalier what he thought, he chose the “luckiest” one.Two years ago, aged 71, Chevalier bought his first lottery ticket(彩票) in 50 years and won more than 2 million. After this, a TV company in America said they wanted him to make an advertisement. At first he accepted, but then he changed his mind. Chevalier said he would not fly to Los Angeles for the filming, because he did not want to push his luck. Who knows? If he had accepted the invitation, maybe he would have had another accident. But Mr. Chevalier is a lucky man. If he had had another accident, he probably would have survived that too!21. In the train accident many years ago, Chevalier .A. didn’t get injured at allB. was finally pulled out of the riverC. was lucky enough to be aliveD. was the only passenger to survive22. Why did Chevalier refuse to make the advertisement?A. Because he had won £2 million.B. Because he didn’t want to risk his lifeC. Because he didn’t want to leave home.D. Because he didn’t like the TV company23. The text mainly talks about .A. a man with nine livesB. the unluckiest man in the worldC. a man who traveled around the worldD. a man who earned £2 million in a lotteryBAccording to a new US study, couples who expect their children to look after them in old age should hope they have daughters because daughters are twice as attentive as sons overall.The research by Angelina Grigoryeva, from Princeton University, found that, while women provide as much care for their elderly parents as they can manage, men do as little as they can get away with and often leave it to female family members.Her analysis of the family networks of 26,000 old Americans concluded that gender(性别) is one of the most important things that decide whether or not people will actively care for their elderly parents.In a paper presented at the annual conference of the American Sociological Association in San Francisco, she concludes that simply having a sister makes men likely provide less care. Using data from the University of Michigan Health and Retirement Study, a study which has been tracking a cross-section of over 50s for the last decade, she calculated that women provide an average of 12.3 hours a month of care for elderly parents while men offer only 5.6 hours.“Sons reduce their relative caregiving efforts when they have a sister, while daughters increase theirs when they have a brother.”“This suggests that sons pass on parent caregiving responsibilities to their sisters.”In the UK, the 2011 Census showed that there are now around 6.5 million people with caring responsibilities, a figure which has risen by a tenth in a decade.But many are doing so at the risk of their health. The census showed that those who provide 50 hours or more of care a week while trying to hold down a fulltime job are three times more likely to be struggling with ill health than their working counterparts who are not carers.24. According to the passage, what’s the mo st important factor to predict if people will actively care for the elderly?A. Education.B. GenderC. CareerD. Income25. The US study finds that .A. having a sister makes men less likely to look after their parentsB. sons are twice as likely as daughters to care for parents in old ageC. sons are unwilling to leave caregiving responsibilities to their sistersD. sons and daughters seem to give equal care to their parents26. What does the author stress in the last paragraph?A. People should give up their job to care for the elderly.B. Many care providers work longer hours than others.C. Many care providers have potential health problems.D. People shouldn’t pass on caring responsibilities to others.27. The author develops the text by .A. explaining social networks of careersB. describing people’s experiencesC. analyzing various researches and dataD. comparing different genderCMrs. Jones was my first patient when I started medical schoo l—and I owe her a lot.She was under my care for the first two years of my medical training, yet I knew very little about her, except that she was thin, perhaps in her mid-70s. It might seem rather negligent not to know the basic facts of my patient ,but I had a valid reason—Mrs. Jones was dead, and had been dead for about three years before I made a patient of her. Mrs. Jones was the dead body that I dissected (解剖) over the first two years of my medical training.Of course, her name wasn’t really Mrs. Jones, but it seemed a little impolite to be conducting research into someone’s body without even knowing its name, so out of courtesy, I thought she should have one. “Me and Mrs. Jones, we’ve got a thing going on,” went the song coming out of the radio as I unzipped the bag of her on my first day—and so she was christened (命名).As the months passed, I soon forgot that Mrs. Jones had, in fact, once been alive. One day, though, she suddenly became very human again. I’d been dissecting Mrs. Jones a good 18 months before I go around to the uterus (子宫). After I’d removed it, the professor came up to me, “If you look at the opening carefully, you’11 see that the angle indicates that this woman has had several children, probably three.” I stared at it, and I suddenly felt very strange. This woman, who had given me something incredibly precious that I’d begun to take for granted, wasn’t a dead body. She was a person, a mother, in fact.At my graduation, the same professor came over to congratulate me. I explained the story about Mrs Jones to him, and recalled what he’d told me about her having children and how that had affected me all those years ago.“Well,” he said, “at the beginning of your training you had a dead body and managed to turn it into a person. Now you’re a doctor, the trick is to have a person and not turn them into a dead body,” and he laughed, shook my hand and walked away.28. Why didn’t the author know much about Mrs. Jones?A. Because he was irresponsible for his patients.B. Because he wasn’t allowed to ask for her privacy.C. Because he didn’t know her until she passed away.D. Because he was too careless while dissecting her.29. How did Mrs. Jones get her name?A. It was passed down from the seniors of my school.B. It came from a song being played when we first met.C. She was named after a well-known singer I liked best,D. It just occurred to me when I opened the bag of her.30. What could be the autho r’s feeling for Mrs. Jones now?A. Grateful.B. Pitiless.C. HatefulD. Guilty31. What did the professor imply by his words in the last paragraph?A. Medical students are able to bring the dead back to life.B. Being a doctor has nothing to do with the medical training.C. Good doctors never fail to save their patients from dying.D. Medical staff ought to have respect for life and humanity.DHow do you get to Carnegie Hall(卡内基音乐厅)? “Practice, practice, practice” is the well-known answer. But for some inspiring young musicians from the Afghanistan National Institute of Music in Kabul, the road to the famous concert hall was more difficult.The Afghan Youth Orchestra (AYO) is made up of young people who study at the Afghanistan National Institute of Music. It was the first orchestra created in Afghanistan in 30 years.Gulalai Norestani, 14, plays a traditional string instrument. Like many students, Gulalai became an orphan when her parents were killed during the ongoing war. Music is her salvation (救星). “Music for me is a language of peace,” Gulalai said. “It connects people.”Milad Yousufi, 18, is a piano student. “Music is my life,” he said. Milad also lost many of his family members during the war. When music was banned, he couldn’t even touch a piano. So as a 12-year-old boy, he started painting and drawing. “I used to draw a piano,” he said. Finally, Milad was free to play a real piano. “Our dream came true,” he said. “It is everyone’s dream to play in Carnegie Hall.”And he has more dreams. “I have a dream to continue my education in America,”he explained. “I am working hard to make that happen. Then I have a dream to come back to Afghanistan and teach and serve people.”Because of continuing limits in Afghanistan, Gulalai and Milad listen mostly to the king of classical music they played at Carnegie Hall. But Gulalai says she’s heard a bit of Jennifer Lopez and Shakira and she likes them. Milad says he has heard of Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber, but hasn’t yet had a chance to listen to them.Before Milad went onstage that night with the band of Afghan kids who had survived a war, I asked him if he had ever experienced true peace. “No, not yet,” he answered, adding, “I hope I will be able to.”Later during the performance, as he played one of Carnegie Hall’s famous grand pianos, the look of pure joy on his face convinced me that he found peace in music.32. What is Gulalai’s opinion on music?A. It calms her down in the war.B. It makes people understand each other.C. It is a kind of violent language.D. It saves her from the killing at war.33. What is Milad’s final aim?A. To serve his country.B. To play a real pianoC. To further study.D. To play in Carnegie34. What can we learn from the passage?A. Classical music is not played in Afghanistan.B. Gulalai knows Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber well.C. The music Gulalai and Milad can hear is limited.D. Milad likes Jennifer Lopez and Shakira.35. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. Traditional Afghan MusicB. Young MusiciansC. A Better PerformanceD. A Peace in Music第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
