Although
2、Keats didnt receive much formal literary education, his own studies and passion brought him much success. Additionally, his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly. Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower middle-class family, the young John didnt attend a private school, but went to
3、a public one. His teachers and his familys friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies. After his fathers death in the early 1800s, followed by his mothers passing due to tuberculosis (肺结核), he began viewing life differently. He wante
4、d to escape the world and did so by reading anything he could get his hands on. At around the age of 16, the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor. However, his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy, especially with his addiction to the po
5、etry of Ehmund Spenser. He was able to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816, entitled O Solitude! If I Must With Thee Dwell. Within two months in 1817, Keats had written an entire volume of poetry, but was sharply criticized (批 评) by a magazine. However, the negative response d

The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boys hope to overcome the limitations of being human. Following Endymion, however, he trie
7、d something more narrative-based (叙事体的) and wrote Isabella. During this time, John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences. He would have to have the “knowledge” associated with his poems. His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that

11、 Are billionaires good with exams as well as their money? Or are they more likely to have escaped school at the first opportunity and worked their way up to make their fortunes? A study of the educational background of some of the worlds wealthiest people shows that they are much more likely to have
12、 gone to university, and they are more likely to have a postgraduate degree(硕士或博士研究生学位) than no degree at all. It doesnt give much support for the image of self-taught entrepreneurs (企业家), who rely on their own wisdom rather than higher education. The study, by insurance company GoCompare, examined
13、the educational background of people appearing in the top 1 00 billionaire lists by Forbes magazine over the past 20 years. It shows that 76 percent of these billionaires have a degree. Forty-seven percent of them have a bachelors (学士) degree, 23 percent a masters (文/理科硕士) degree and 6 percent a doc
14、torate(博士学位). The most popular subjects were the ones related to economics and engineering. There were many more studying sciences than arts.

C Music is often thought of as “easy” or “play time”,but its not that at all.Music plays a very important part in our education.Students who learn music learn a lot of music history at school.This includ

30、法案基金)scholar at Yale, I wanted very much to get some individual help from some famous professors, but their office-hours were only once a week and there were always students waiting outside. At first, I was too polite to get their help. Then I realized that Chinese politeness does not work in this s
31、ociety. I needed to be aggressive to get what I wanted. I also noticed that Chinese students or Asian students were very polite in class while American students often interrupted the professor, asking questions and dominating the discussion. The Chinese students were not as aggressive as American st
32、udents. I was impressed by the role of the professor in the class. The professor didnt act as an authority, giving final conclusions, but as a researcher looking for answers to questions together with the students. One linguistic feature of his interacting with his students was that he used many mod
33、al verbs-far more than I did in Beiwai. When answering questions, he usually said: “this is my personal opinion and it could be wrong. It would be a good idea if you could read the book I mentioned the other day.” Or,“ You may find the book I recommended helpful.” Or,“You could be right, but you mig
34、ht find this point of view also interesting.” When making comments on students performances, the professor usually said:” It might have been much clearer if you had taken in some of the ideas we discussed earlier this semester.” In China, authorities are always supposed to give wise decisions and co
35、rrect directions. Therefore students always expect the professor to give an answer to the question. I still remember how annoyed they were when foreign teachers did not provide such an answer. Their expectations from authorities are much higher than those of American students. Once the Chinese stude
36、nts got the answer, they were sure about it. That is why they make far more certain statement than American students. That is why Chinese students find it difficult to use modal verbs because the function of modal verbs is to provide room for negotiation and different ideas. 13. The American profess
37、ors use many modal verbs because they want to_. A. argue with their students B. be more sure about their answers C. express their ideas more clearly D. develop their students own way of thinking 14. Which of the following statements best expresses the authors idea? A. Chinese professors can always g
38、ive correct answer to the question. B. American professors are not responsible since they dont give students answers. C. American education produces aggressive students. D. Education in China is not helpful in developing students creativity. 15. Which of the following methods did the author mainly e
39、mploy in developing the article? A. Comparison and contrast. B. Cause and effect. C. Giving examples. D. Description. 16. What is the authors attitude towards education in U.S.? A. Positive B. Negative C. Neutral D. Unsure 二、完形填空(每小题二、完形填空(每小题 1.51.5 分,共分,共 3030 分)分) Are you a man or a mouse? When p
40、eople ask this question they want to know 17 you think you are a 18 person or a coward (懦夫). But you will never really know the answer to this question 19 you are tested in real life. Some people 20 they are brave but when they come face to face with real 21 , they act like cowards. Others think of
41、themselves as cowards, but when they meet danger, they act like 22 . Lenny had always thought of himself as a 23 person. He got worried before examinations. He worried about his job and health. All he wanted in life was to be safe and healthy. 24 , on January 15th, 2002, a plane crashed into the Pot
42、omac River in Washington. Lenny went to the river to see what was happening. He saw a woman in the 25 water. Lenny did not feel afraid. He kept very 26 and did a very dangerous thing.

The chemical is called adrenalin. 31 adrenalin in the blood system, you actually feel stronger and stronger and are 32 to fight or run away. However, when you a
44、re absolutely terrified, the body can produce too much adrenalin. When this 33 , the muscles become very hard and you find you 34 move at all. You are then paralyzed (使无 能为力) with fear. This is 35 when we are very frightened, we sometimes say were “petrified”. This word comes from the Greek word “pe
