The Goodness of Life

Though there is much to be concerned about, there is far, far more for which to be thankful.

Though life's goodness can at times be overshadowed, it is never 31 .

For every single act that is senselessly destructive, there are thousands more small, 32 acts of love, kindness and compassion. For every person who seeks to hurt, there are many, many more who 33 their lives to helping and to healing.

There is goodness to life that cannot be denied.

38 when the cold winds blow and the world seems to be 39 in foggy shadows, the goodness of life lives on. Open your eyes, open your heart, and you will see that goodness is 40 .

Though the goodness of life seems at times to 41 setbacks, it always keeps itself up. For in the darkest moment it becomes vividly 42 that life is a priceless treasure. And so the goodness of life is made even 43 by the very things that would oppose it.

Time and time again when you feared it was 44 forever you found that the goodness of life was really only a moment away. Around the next corner, inside every moment, the goodness of life is there to 45 and delight you.

Take a moment to let the goodness of life touch your spirit and calm your 46 . Then, share your good fortune 47 another. For the goodness of life grows more and more magnificent each time it is 48 .

Though the problems constantly scream for 49 and the conflicts appear to rage ever stronger, the goodness of life grows stronger still, quietly and 50 , with more purpose and meaning than ever before.

第三部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

I always experienced guilt when I passed by without giving a coin or two to a beggar.

My conscience was pricked again on a tour of Venice in 2010. I had taken refuge(庇护) from the crowds in a quiet canal-side café. Outside the café was an old woman kneeling on the ancient cobbled stones, begging. Steady streams of tourists were walking past her. A lone young back-packer stood away from the throng drinking something, but I noticed he was also observing the woman.

A tourist group glanced at the woman and walked on. Another group of tourists arrived and, again, walked past her. The backpacker watched. Then, as I prepared to leave, I stopped at the sight of the backpacker stepping forward an d placing some money in the woman’s cup. He did this rather ostentatiously（炫耀地）, just before the arrival of another tourist group. I watched as the leader of the group stopped and put some money in the cup. Having been shown the way, other tourists followe d suit and added more coins to the woman’s cup.

The young backpacker repeated this process in front of the next tour party going past.

Once again, the subtle peer （同伴）pressure worked on the tourists, who all added coins to the cup. His work done, the young man walked over to the old beggar woman, patted her shoulder and said, “I hope that helps a bit.”

I don’t know if the woman understood his English or realized what had just happened, but I did. I placed some money in the woman’s cup and continued my trave ls, light-hearted after witnessing such an astute act of caring.

56. The author went to a quiet canal-side cafe to .

A. take a rest

B. watch the woman beggar

C. get away from the crowds

D. avoid meeting the beggar

57. Before the backpacker dropped some money in the woman’s cup, the tourists .

A. didn’t notice the woman

B. gave a little money to the woman

C. all showed pity for the woman

D. walked by without giving any money

58. The backpacker placed some money in the woman’s cup rather ostentatiously because .

A. he wanted people to know that he was rich and kind

B. he wanted the tourist group to follow him

C. he wanted to stop the tourists by doing this

D. he wanted to help the woman by himself

59. We can infer from the passage that .

A. people can do kind acts due to peer pressure

B. people usually have pity on an old beggar

C. tourists can be cheated by beggars

D. tourists are willing to help beggars

B

What do working mothers worry about the most? It’s the kids of course. Whatever the setting, the question I get asked the most is “Will the kids be alright?” It’s made me realize that we tend to look at the glass half-empty rather than half-filled when it comes to mixing work and family. We forget about all the benefits that we bring to our children when we work——and I’m not talking about the obvious financial benefits, although these of course shouldn’t be taken for granted.

About a year ago I remember getting a call from the school just as I was pulling up to the house aft er having driven 20 minutes to the school and 20 minutes back. “Mrs. Brown Quinn, your son asked us to call. He forgot his sports clothes. Can you come back to the school and drop them off?”I was exasperated(恼火)! I had already spent 40 minutes in aggressive weekday morning traffic. I replied, “Sorry, I’m working at the moment. I’m afraid my son

needs to learn to be organized.”

Being a good parent requires delivering tough love sometimes. Kids need to learn to be independent. It can be a cruel and competitive world out there. Seeking interests, including business, outside of your kids, can give you that extra idea that you need not care for your kids with attention. This benefit of working isn’t always immedia tely evident.

It wasn’t until our daughter went away to college that she realized why we（a dual(双的)career couple）had raised her in the way that we did. “Mom, I can’t believe how so many of my friends struggle to manage things on their own. They are constantly calling their parents for help.” You’ll love that moment! After all those years of complaining about why you don’t do this or why you don’t give them that, your kids realize that tough love has made them better people.

60. The author refused to drop off her son’s sports clothes because ______.

A. she was caught in heavy traffic

B. she was busy working

C. she thought her son was lying

D. she wanted her son to be organized

61. How can kids become better people according to the author?

A. By giving them all your attention.

B. By giving them freedom to do things on their own.

C. By showing them your deep love.

D. By giving them tough love.

62. The daughter’s attitude towards the author is ______ when she grows up.

A. complaining

B. caring

C. understanding

D. disappointed

63. The purpose of the author is to ______.

A. analyze a special benefit of working

B. advise us to blend work and family

C. argue for working mothers

D. describe her own experience in raising children

C

(Reuters)—Ceremonies to celebrate divorces have gained momentum（势头）in Japan after the massive March earthquake and tsunami, followed by an ongoing nuclear crisis, caused unhappy couples to reassess their lives.

The ceremony to mark a couple's transition to being single again costs 55,000 yen ($690)，includes a buffet meal and culminates with the ritual smashing of their wedding rings with a

gavel.

Tomoharu Saito, who took part in Tokyo with his wife Miki days before they were set to file for divorce, said crushing the rings felt cathartic.（情感宣泄的）.

“I did not think the ring could be crushed that easily, but it did,”he said.

“I was shocked but at the same time, I feel i t helped me make a clean break.”

The ceremony also includes a “divorce dress,”and Miki Saito chose a daisy-yellow summer dress. In Japan, daisies are believed to symbolize an a “friendly relationship”.

Designer Akiue Go said he created the dress with emphasis on the back for a specific reason.

“I designed this dress so the woman's back looks the most beautiful when she turns around and walks away,” he said。

Hiroki Terai, a 31-year-old former salesman, spotted a gap in the market and pioneered the divorce ceremony two years ago. Since then, he's celebrated more than 80 breakups.

Requests for the ceremony have tripled since the March 11 9.0 magnitude quake set off a massive tsunami.

“The March 11 disaster made many couples rethink their priorities. Some found that work was a higher priority to them than family, and this helped people gain the confidence to decide on a divorce,” Terai said.

“Those who want an amicable divorce are doing these ceremonies.”

Miki Saito said the earthquake made her realize she wanted to be closer to her parents, who live in northeastern Japan in one of the areas badly affected by the quake.

“After the quake, my desire to go back and live with my parents grew stronger,” she said.

Guest Hiroko Tada was present for both the beginning and the end of the Saitos' marriage. “I'd say congratulations to the amicable divorce,” she said. “I could have never imagined this day would come because I was at their wedding, but since they did break up, this is one of the best ways to do it.”

64. Which of the following is not TRUE according to the passage?

A. The divorce ceremony in Japan includes a buffet meal.

B. Smashing the wedding rings helps Tomoharu Saito make a clean break.

C. The divorce dress is designed to make women look the most beautiful

D. It’s Hiroki Terai who first spotted the market of divorce ceremony

65. How much has the divorce ceremony held by Terai cost in the past two years?

A. About 56,000 yen

B. About $50,000

C. Less than 440,000 yen

D. Over $ 55,200

66. What can be inferred from the text?

A. Terai was the second to held the divorce ceremony

B. Divorce ceremonies pick up in Japan after the March 11 disaster

C. People get married to gain confidence after the earthquake

D. The March 11 disaster was the most serious ever recorded

D

The European Union announced plans on Tuesday to temporar-ily ban the use of animal cloning for food production, while allowing imports of food derived from the offspring（后代）of clones from the United States and elsewhere.

The report from the European Commission followed a call by EU lawmakers in July for a total ban on food derived from cloned animals and their traditionally bred offspring, citing ethical concerns over the industrial production of cloned meat.

The Commission said a temporary five-year EU ban on cloning for food production was justified on animal welfare grounds, but said banning imports of food from the offspring of clones was unnecessary and would disrupt global trade.

“Food from cloned animals is safe. In fact, the scientific opinion is that it cannot be differentiated in any way from food normally bred animals. The issue is animal welfare,” EU Health and Consumer Commissioner John Dalli told reporters.

Food derived from the offspring of clones presents no such animal welfare issues, and banning its sale and import would be impossible because the origin is untraceable, Dalli said.

“Such a prohibition would lead to a ban of imports of any food of animal origin (meat, milk and processed products)from third countries allowing the cloning technique,” the report said.

“We’re not going to regulate for the world,” Dalli added.

But animal welfare groups criticized the Commission’s decision, saying it had bowed to pressure from third countries.

“We do not accept the Commission’s position that it would be impossible to enforce a ban that includes the offspring of cloned animals, as (other) meat traceability systems are already in place,” said Sonja Van Tichelen, direct or of the Eurogroup for Animals.

67. From the passage we can infer that the ban is .

A. justified

B. welcome

C. controversial

D. meaningless

68. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The ban is permanent.

B. The imports of food from the offspring of clones are not banned.

C. Animal welfare groups support the ban.

D. The ban has been put into effect.

69. Which of the following is the reason for Commission’s decision on the ban according to animal welfare groups?

A. The origin of food derived from the offspring of clones is Untraceable.

B. Food from cloned animals is safe.

C. The issue is for animal welfare.

D. The pressure comes from third countries.

70. What might be the most suitable title for the passage?

A. The plans of the European Union

B. A temporary five-year EU ban

C. The EU proposes a ban on animal cloning for food

D. The danger of food derived from cloned animals

Each of us experiences setbacks in life. all of which provide us with valuable lessons about the human condition. 71 You’ve heard the adage many times about turning lemons into lemonade, right? Well, this sentiment is absolutely true and can tremendously improve your quality of life.

Turning a negative experience into something more positive isn’t always easy. In fact, some of the most tragic moments in our life seem never. ending when we aye experiencing them. However, there is always a way to take a bad situation and extract something positive from it. 72

1. “This too shall pass.” That is what you should initially tell yourself when something bad happens. Repeat those words in your head and even aloud if it helps. The important thing is that you do not panic, as this will only exasperate the negative experience. Every bad moment in your life will end, which can be a comfort during the worst time.

2. 73 Some people believe that everything happens for a reason . While you may not buy into that philosophy, you can at least give each experience a purpose. Try to think of a lesson that the experience has taught you. Did you meet a new friend while going through this time? Did you learn how not to do something?

3. Keep your sense of humor handy. This applies to everything in your life. 74 Even if it isn’t appropriate to joke about something aloud，you can make humorous observations in

your mind to keep you on a positive track．

4. Don’t dwell on negative moments. You will not help anyone by stewing in a moment that has already passed. Whether you were hurt，embarrassed or both，the negative emotions you felt before should not remain fresh in your psyche. If you continue to dwell in the negative，you will never find your way out again.

5. Set a new goal to work towards. As I said before, you should never dwell in your past negative experiences. Some times it is hard to get out of a funk. However. 75 ,This will give you something good to strive for and will take your mind off whatever has occurred．A．The best way to rise us from a bad experience and move on from a situation is to set new，positive goals to focus on.

B．Failure is the mother of success.

C．Almost every situation allows for a bit of levity, so remain humble and try seeing the humorous side of things.

D．Find purpose in the experience.

E．Setbacks in life are necessary and unavoidable and we have to get used to them．

F．It is not the setback it self that influences your future, but rather how to react to the negative situation.

G．Below aye five ways to do just that.

45．B 睁开双眼，打开心扉，你就会发现这美好无处不在。

46．D 尽管生命的美好有时似乎遭受挫折，但它总会挺过来。refuse“拒绝”；harvest “收获”；govern“统治，管理”；suffer“遭受”。

47．C 因为，在最黑暗的时刻，有一点变得格外清楚，那就是，生命是无价的财富。unique “独特的”；vague“模糊的”；clear“清楚的”；passive“被动的”。

48．B 因此，正是与生命的美好相对立的事物使其越发强大。

49．A 无数次地，当你担心这美好永远不在了，你会发现生命的美好其实只与你相隔须臾。gone”不在了，不见了”，符合语境。

50．D 它就在下一个角落，存在于每个时刻之间，等着给你惊喜。

51．D 花些时间让生命的美好触动你的灵魂，平静你的思绪。determination“决心”；

will“意志，意愿”；life“生活，生命”；thought“思想，看法”。前三项均与语

境不符。

52．A 然后，把你的幸运与他人分享。share…with…“与……分享……”。

53．A 因为生命的美好会因每次的给予而变得越来越壮观。giveaway“赠送，给予”；

put off”推迟”；search for”寻找”；pickout“挑出”。

54. B 尽管总是有问题需要你去关注，冲突也似乎愈演愈烈……Identification“鉴别，

识别”；attention“关注”；contribution“贡献”；restriction”限制”。

55. C 但生命的美好却静静地，平和地，带着比以往更大的决心和更多的意义变得更加

强大。elegantly“优雅地”；rigidly“严格地”；peacefully“平和地，安静地”；steeply

“陡峭地，剧烈地”。

56. C 细节理解题。从文章第二段的第二句可知，作者是为了躲避人群才去运河边的咖

啡馆的。

57. D 细节理解题。从文章第三段的前两句可知，一群群游客从乞丐旁边经过，但都没

有对她进行施舍。

58. B 推理判断题。从文章第三段的后半部分和第四段可知，这位年轻游客的举动带动

了其他游客，由此可推断，这位年轻游客故意夸张地往乞丐的杯子里放钱，是为

了让其他游客效仿他。

59. A 推理判断题。由文章第四段的第二句可知，是同伴的压力促使游客纷纷向乞丐的

杯子里放钱，故A项正确。

60. D 细节理解题。从文章第二段最后一句可知，作者希望孩子通过此事学会做事有条

理、有计划，因此拒绝了校方的请求。

61. D 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段可知，作者不认同一味迁就孩子、娇惯

孩子的教育方法，而是主张培养孩子的独立生活能力，给予孩子严格的爱，故选

D项。

62. C 推理判断题。文章最后一段女儿的话显然说明她最终理解了母亲的良苦用心。

63. A 写作意图题。文章第一段引出本文话题——工作着的父母在教育方面所占的优势。

再结合全文内容可知作者重点说明的是工作的父母可以培养孩子的独立性，故选

A。

64. C 正误判断题。由第二段内容可知A项内容正确；由第三段和第五段内容可知B项

内容正确；由第六至第八段内容可知离婚礼服的用心设计是为了让离婚的女人的

背在转身离开时看起来是最漂亮的，而不是让她本人看起来最漂亮，故C项内容

错误；由第九段内容可知D项内容正确。

65. D 简单计算题。根据第二段的“The ceremony to mark a couple’stransition to being

single again costs 55，000 yen($690)”和第九段的“Since then，he’s celebrated more than 80 breakups”提供的数据计算可知D项正确。

66. B 推理判断题。由文中第一段的“Ceremonies to celebrate divorces have gained

momentum(势头)in Japan after the massive March earthquake and tsunami”以及第

十段中的“Requests for the ceremony have tripled since the March 1 l 9.0 magnitude quake set off a massive tsunami”可推知B项正确。

67. C 推理判断题。文章首先介绍了该禁令的内容及产生的背景，最后两段又介绍了动

物保护者们对该禁令的异议，由此可以推断，这一禁令是有争议的(controversial)。

Justified“合乎情理的”；welcome“受欢迎的”；meaningless“没有意义的”。68. B 正误判断题。由第一段可知这一禁令是暂时的，且不禁止进口克隆动物的后代制

成的食品，该决议目前仍在计划中，因此B项正确，A、D项错误。由倒数第二

段可知动物保护者并不支持该禁令，故C项错误。

69. D 推理判断题。由倒数第二段可知动物保护者们认为欧盟委员会是迫于第三世界国

家的压力才决定实施这一禁令的，故选D。

70. C 标题概括题。本文主要介绍了欧盟宣布将就克隆食品提出一项立法建议，故C

项最能概括全文。
