　　(2013·江西省重點中學(xué)協(xié)作體第一次聯(lián)考)

　　Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness，happiness，goodness，and self­respect?The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized (把……歸類) as “honor” help you create this life of good feelings.

　　Here’s an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.

　　Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item.If we keep silent，and profit from the clerk’s mistake，we would drive home with a sense of sneaky (暗中的) excitement.Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune.On the other hand，if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item，the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty.We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.

　　Then，what is it to do with our sense of happiness?

　　In the first case，where we don’t tell the clerk，a couple of things would happen.Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief.In the process，we would lose some peace of mind and self­respect.We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted，since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends.We damage our own reputations by telling others.In contrast，bringing_the_error_to_the__clerk’s__attention causes different things to happen.Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable.Upon leaving the store，we feel honorable and our self­respect is increased.Whenever we take honorable actions we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.

　　There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions.Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions.Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence.And it’s easy to think and act honorably again when we’re happy.While the positive cycle can be difficult to start，once it’s started，it’s easy to continue.Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind，which is important for our happiness.

　　1.According to the passage，the positive action in the example contributes to our________.

　　A.self­respect 　 B.financial rewards

　　C.advertising ability　 D.friendly relationship

　　2.The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to________.

　　A.lying 　 B.stealing

　　C.cheating 　 D.advertising

　　3.The underlined phrase “bringing the error to the clerk’s attention” means________.

　　A.telling the truth to the clerk

　　B.offering advice to the clerk

　　C.asking the clerk to be more attentive

　　D.reminding the clerk of the charged items

　　4.How will we feel if we let the clerk know the mistake?

　　A.We’ll be very excited.

　　B.We’ll feel unfortunate.

　　C.We’ll have a sense of honor.

　　D.We’ll feel sorry for the clerk.

　　5.Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?

　　A.How to Live Truthfully

　　B.Importance of Peacefulness

　　C.Ways of Gaining Self­respect

　　D.Happiness through Honorable Actions

　　B

　　(2013·濟寧高考模擬)

　　A euphemism (from the Greek words eu—well and pheme—speak) is a word or expression that is used when people want to find a polite or less direct way of talking about difficult or embarrassing topics like death or the bodily functions.Most people，for example，would find it very difficult to say in plain language that they have arranged for their sick old dog to be killed.They would soften the pain by saying：We had Ruby put down or We had Ruby put to sleep.Many people prefer to call someone plain than ugly，or cuddly rather than fat.

　　Euphemisms are an important part of every language，but it seems that English has an ever­growing number of them.The non­native speaker not only has to make sense of the euphemisms he hears，he also has to learn which euphemisms are appropriate in any particular situation.He might be aware that his American friend needs to use the toilet when she asks where the bathroom (or restroom，or comfort station) is，but he is less likely to guess that his English friend has the same need when he says he has to see a man about a dog.He might have learned，for example，that in the family way is a euphemism for pregnant.If，however，he says to his boss，“Congratulations!I hear your wife is in the family way，” he would be using an expression that is too familiar for the circumstances.

　　Schools are full of euphemisms.At Frankfurt International School，for example，the special lessons given to students who are having difficulties in their school subjects are called Study Center (in the middle school) and Academic Workshop (in the high school).Teachers rightly do not want to upset students or parents by being too frank or straightforward，and usually choose a softer word or expression to convey the same message.

　　6.According to the passage，people use euphemisms in order to________.

　　A.make themselves understood

　　B.avoid embarrassment

　　C.to sound straightforward

　　D.attract attention

　　7.A person who is described as plain and cuddly is in fact________.

　　A.tall and handsome 　 B.pretty and slim

　　C.ugly but tall 　 D.ugly and fat

　　8.When an English lady says she has to see a man about a dog，she might want to________.

　　A.have her old dog killed　 B.see an ugly friend

　　C.go to the toilet 　 D.see a pregnant woman

　　9.The main purpose of Paragraph 2 is to________.

　　A.stress that euphemisms are an important part of every language

　　B.inform readers that English has an ever­growing number of euphemisms

　　C.suggest non­native speakers use euphemisms as often as possible

　　D.warn English learners to be careful about the meaning and use of euphemisms

　　10.At Frankfurt International School，the students who receive lessons in Study Center________.

　　A.have poor grades in the subjects

　　B.do well in school

　　C.work hard at their lessons

　　D.prefer to learn more

　　答案：　C

　　6.解析：　考查代詞。when it comes to sth.當涉及某事時，為固定結(jié)構(gòu)，此處to是介詞，后接名詞或者動名詞，故C項正確。

　　答案：　D

　　9.解析：　主要考查動詞不定式的時態(tài)與語態(tài)。從句意看，整個動作發(fā)生在將來，to play作a role的定語，其間存在著邏輯上的動賓關(guān)系，又與句中的each of us存在著邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系，故動詞不定式用主動形式表示被動意義。動詞不定式to play意指將來的動作;to have played意指已經(jīng)完成的動作;to be playing則強調(diào)動詞不定式動作正在進行。

　　答案：　B

　　10.解析：　考查動詞詞義辨析。句意為：奧普拉，美國電視脫口秀的王后，被認為是當今世界最有影響力的女性之一。be recognized as...被認為是……。
