15、r _36_ of his plays.

16、we can put the image in its proper place in the history of Shakespearean portraiture (畫像技法),” he said.Two other images of Shakespeare are also being studied as part of the investigation and the results will _39_later in May.

A day may begin well enough, but suddenly everything seems to get out of control. It seems as if a single unimportant event set up a chain of reactions. Let us suppose that you are preparing a mea

21、l and keeping an eye on the baby at the same time. The telephone rings and this means your troubles are beginning. While you are on the phone, the baby pulls the tablecloth off the table, destroying your half prepared meal. You hang up hurriedly and attend to your baby. Meanwhile, the meal gets burn

22、t. As if this were not enough to bring you to tears, your husband arrives, unexpectedly bringing three guests to dinner. Things can go wrong on a big scale, as a number of people recently discovered in Parramatta, a suburb of Sydney. During the rush hour one evening two cars hit each other and both

23、drivers began to argue. The woman immediately behind the two cars happened to be a learner. She suddenly got into a panic and stopped her car. This made the driver following her brake hard. His wife was sitting beside him holding a large cake. As she was thrown forward, the cake went right through t

24、he windscreen and landed on the road. Seeing a cake flying through the air, a lorry driver who was drawing up alongside the car, pulled up all of a sudden. The lorry was loaded with empty beer bottles and hundreds of them slid off the back of the vehicle and on to the road. This led to yet another a

25、ngry argument. Meanwhile, the traffic piled up behind. It took the police nearly an hour to get the traffic on the move again. In the meantime, the lorry driver had to sweep up hundreds of broken bottles. Only two dogs benefited from all this confusion, for they were happily having what was left of

26、the cake. It was just one of those days!41. According to the authors opinion, _.A. a small matter may cause great trouble B. accidents may happen anytimeC. anyone may have trouble any day D. troubles always come in groups42. When the telephone rings, _.A. your trouble is approaching if you are takin

27、g care of your babyB. you should never go to answer it in a hurry unless you know its an important oneC. youd better have your baby a little distant from your table before going to answer itD. youd better just let it ring all the way unless you can find someone to take care ofyour baby 43. What did

28、the police do after the accident? A. They helped the drivers to go on with their journey. B. They helped the truck-driver to clean up the road. C. They would find out who should be fined. D. They tried to stop the people from arguing.44. From the story we can see _. A. such accidents are usually fun

29、nyB. such accidents are rather common C. no one can explain why such accidents happen D. some drivers should take responsibility for their carelessness BCoupons to spend“How did you spend your coupons?”O(jiān)n their first day back to school, many students in Hangzhou greeted each other this way.The coupo

30、ns referred to the 100 yuan coupons each student received form the city government before the Spring Festival holidays. Over 260,000 primary school and middle school students were given coupons. They could use them in local stores and supermarkets, or to see movies and buy books.The same coupons hav

31、e also been given to low income families in Hangzhou. Other cities, including Chengdu and Nanjing, also gave coupons to their citizens. More cities are expected to follow their lead.Why are local governments doing this?These programmes are all part of a broader effort in China to increase domestic d

32、emand in the face of the global financial crisis.The crisis has seriously affected Chinas exports and investments (投資). Many factories in southern cities have been closed down. Some companies are laying off workers or reducing their pay. The stock market and real estate market have been falling.In a

33、 time of financial crisis, people usually respond by saving money. They are uncertain about the future and are afraid that more difficult times may be ahead. Now many people are choosing not to spend money carelessly. Major chain stores have seen a sharp slowdown in sales, analysts say.But spending

34、keeps an economy healthy. If people dont spend, there will be too many products in the market. Then shops will stop buying products from factories. When factories receive no orders, they close down. The workers there accordingly lose their jobs. Also, if people dont spend, the service industry suffe

35、rs. The total result is that the whole economy breaks down.Issuing coupons is a practical and effective way to increase domestic demand in the current situation, said Jiang Zengwei, vice-minister of Chinas Ministry of Commerce. Hangzhou reported a rise in customers in local markets during Spring Fes

36、tival holiday. However, issuing coupons is only a temporary measure. To increase consumers confidence, the government needs to establish a sound secure social system in the long term. When people dont have to worry about education, health care and their pension, they will be more willing to spend in

37、stead of saving.45. Why are local governments issuing coupons?A. To increase domestic demand in the face of the global financial crisis.B.

40、conomy breaks down.C. The government may carry out new policies to encourage citizens to be willing to spend in the near future.D.

42、, businessmen, factory workers as well as farmers all talk about the weather. It is everyday news, whether or not conditions change. Many newspapers carry a regular front page news story in addition to the full reports on as inside-page provided by the weather service. Here are several different typ

43、es of weather reports taken from the western papers: No.1 Regional forecastNew JerseyToday: Considerably cloudy with showers likely. High: 7579. Southwesterlywinds at 15 to 20 m.p.h. Precipitation probability 70 percent. Tonight: warm and cloudy, rain likely. Low: 5563. Southwesterly winds at 15 to

No. 3 Weather Stories Bitter cold, intensified (加劇) by high winds, gripped (控制) the Upper Midwest today, sheets of ice and snow left by the winters first major storm on highways throughout the area. At least six deaths

46、were blamed on the storm. Hundreds of schools closed throughout the Upper Midwest yesterday and thousands of travelers waited out the weather at the roadside shelters. Temperatures dropped well below zero early today from the Northern plains through the Western Great Lakes under clearing skies. A 25

47、-below-zero reading was forecast. Nearly a foot of snow fell on northern sections of Minnesota, Minsconsin and Michigan. And hardest hit were Duluth, Minn. and Superior, Wis., where 12 inches wererecorded. Winds went up to 50 miles an hour.49. In a street of corner of London, two strangers may begin

48、 their talk with “_”A. Hi, how are you? B. What are doing here? Waiting for someone?C. A nice day, isnt it? D. Didnt you listen to the weather report last night?50.

With regard

51、 to helping those in difficulty generally, they found that:(1) women are helped more than men;(2) men help more than women;(3) attractive women are helped more than unattractive women. Other factors relate to the number of people in the area, whether the person is thought to be in trouble through th

52、eir own fault, and whether a person sees himself as being able to help. According to Adrian Furnham, Professor of University College, London, there are three reasons why we tend to stand by doing nothing:(1) “Shifting of responsibility”the more people there are, the less likely help is to be given.

53、Each person excuses himself by thinking someone else will help, so that the more “other people there are, the greater the total shifting of responsibility.(2) “Fear of making a mistakesituations are often not clear. People think that those involved in an accident may know each other or it may be a j

54、oke, so a fear of embarrassment makes them keep themselves to themselves.(3) “Fear of the consequences if attention is turned on you, and the person is violent.” Laurie Taylor, Professor of Sociology at London University, says: “In the experiments Ive seen on intervention (介入), much depends on the n

55、eighborhood or setting. There is a silence on public transport which is hard to break. We are embarrassed to draw attention to something that is happening, while in a football match, people get involved, and a fight would easily follow. ” Psychotherapist Alan Dupuy identifies the importance of the i

56、ndividual: “The British as a whole have some difficulty intervening, but there are exceptional individuals in every group who are prepared to intervene, regardless of their own safety: These would be people with a strong moral code or religious ideals.”53. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Pretty women are more likely to be helped. B. People on a bus are more likely to stop a c
