20．The first day of school our professor challenged us to get to know someone we didn't know．I turned around to find a wrinkled（有皺紋的）old lady．She said，"Hi，handsome．My name is Rose．I'm 87years old．Can I give you a hug？"I laughed and enthusiastically responded，"Of course you may！"，and she gave me a giant squeeze．"Why are you in college at such a young，innocent age？"I asked．I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age．
"I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one！"she told me．After class we shared achocolate milk shake．We became instant friends．Every day for the next three months，we would leave class together and talk non-stop．Over the course of the year，Rose became a campus star and she easily made friends wherever she went．
At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet（宴會(huì)）．I'll never forget what she taught us．She cleared her throat and began，"We do not stop playing because we are old； we grow old because we stop playing．If you are 19years old and lie in bed for one full year and don't do one productive thing，you will turn 20years old．If I am 87years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything，I will turn 88．Anybody can grow older．That doesn't take any talent or ability．The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change and have no regrets．"
At the year's end Rose finished the college degree．One week after graduation，Rose died peacefully in her sleep．Over 2，000college students attended her funeral in honor of the wonderful woman who taught by example that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be．
21．Where did the author first get to know Rose？B
A．In a café．          
B．In class．       
C．At a banquet．     
D．In the library．

B．Share her ambition with others．
C．Encourage her college mates．

分析 本文是一篇人物故事類閱讀，屬于記敘文，開學(xué)的第一天我們的教授要求我們?nèi)チ私庖粋�(gè)我們不認(rèn)識(shí)的人，我轉(zhuǎn)身找到一個(gè)有皺紋的老婦人．本文以此展開，主要講述了作者和Rose認(rèn)識(shí)的故事．

解答 21．B．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文章第一段的第一句"The first day of school our professor challenged us to get to know someone we didn't know"可知，作者是在課堂上認(rèn)識(shí)Rose的，因此選擇B項(xiàng)．
22．C．推理判斷題．從Rose的講話及第三段的最后一句"The idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change and have no regrets"可推知，Rose是在鼓勵(lì)她的同學(xué)，因此選擇C項(xiàng)．
23．B．推理判斷題．根據(jù)第一段中的"I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age"及第四段的最后一句可推知，作者認(rèn)為Rose是積極的、令人欽佩的．故選B項(xiàng)．
24．D．標(biāo)題判斷題． 因?yàn)橛袎?mèng)想，所以87歲的Rose 還在上大學(xué)．結(jié)合本文最后一段中的"it's never too late to be all you can possibly be"可知，D項(xiàng)最適合作文章標(biāo)題．

5．Master painter Zhang Daqian （1899-1983）was well known for having a large number of friends and students．Among them，painter Li Qiujun was special．
    They got to know each other through Li's elder brother，who was one of Zhang's best friends．
    They admired each other's artistic talent and became confidants，which resulted in a romantic relationship．
    In 1948，Zhang produced Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape，a mountain-and-water ink painting featuring gongbi （meticulous brushwork），as a gift for Li's 50th birthday．
    A year later，Zhang permanently departed from the mainland，and traveled and exhibited around the world before settling down in Taipei in 1976．
    After leaving the mainland，he often said that he missed Li，who died in Shanghai in 1973．
    Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape will be auctioned in Hong Kong on Oct 4．
    The painting not only marks a friendship between the two painters，but it deserves special attention because it shows Zhang at the top of his game as he sought to master the mountain-and-water style，according to C．K．Cheung，head of Sotheby's Chinese painting department．
    Sotheby's will auction the work at its major autumn sale，which runs from Oct 1to 5．
    Cheung says the painting's composition and Zhang's attention to details reflect his incorporation of traditional touches，especially from Song Dynasty （960-1279）paintings，while also developing his own style．

21．The underlined word"confidants"in paragraph 3 probably meansC．
A．enemies        B．colleges         C．friends        D．painters
22．How old was Li Qiujun when she died？B
A.50             B.75             C.78            D.84
23．According to the passage，which of the following is NOT true？D
A．Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape was originally a gift for Li's 50th birthday．
B．Zhang Daqian permanently departed from the mainland in 1949．
C．Sotheby's will auction Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape in Hong Kong．
D．Li Qiujun's elder brother was also one of ZhangDaqian's students．

This Way to Dreamland
Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant，especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing．Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what's happening around them．They can seem forgetful and clumsy．（36）BThey annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things．
But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history．（37）C Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions？
So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool？
First，understand that some opportunities for daydreaming are better than others．Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams．（38）AAnd if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you're daydreaming，try to do it while you are involved in another task-preferably something simple，like taking a shower or walking，or even making meaningless drawings．
It's also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate．"Mindfulness"，being focused，is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep．（39）E
Finally，you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away．（40）G
Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds．

A．Having interesting things to think about also helps．
B．They stare off into space and wander by themselves．
C．Without wandering minds，we wouldn't have relativity，Coke or Post-it notes．
D．At one time，daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses．
E．It involves slow，steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive．
F．Daydreams are often very simple and direct，quite unlike sleep dreams，which may be hard to understand．
G．Therefore，it's a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you're in the daydream zone．

9．The"happiest place on earth"is a top destination on many families，bucket lists （人生目標(biāo)清單）．But taking a vacation to Disney World can be difficult to do on a budget．There are some considerations that you can make to reduce the cost of your Disney World vacation．

4．Take Advantage of Discounts Offered to Special Groups

Success Is On The Other Side of Failure
Everybody wants success．Some people aim for it； others just talk about it．（36）DBut the truth is that it's closer than you think．It's just on the other side．You have to want it enough，and be willing enough to get it．
It has no excuses．Fear is your biggest obstacle（障礙）．It will cause you to make decisions that may seem"right"at the time．（37）EYou either get it or you don't．The minute you find a reason not to take another step towards success is the moment you stop being successful．In the symphony of success，excuses are just noise．
It is on the other side of obstacles．Everyone faces challenges；different ones at different times．We all handle the same challenges differently； we all have different results．It's how you handle each one and what you do with the results that count．（38）GRemember，you're got to pass obstacles in order to succeed．
（39）BThey call it a ladder of success for a reason．You need to climb it in order to get somewhere．It's no tan escalator（自動(dòng)扶梯）．You can't stand there and let it do the work for you．（40）AIt's going to take determination and commitment on your part to get up and over that wall．

A．You have to do the work yourself．
B．It takes effort，commitment and follow-though．
C．You'll be carrying a heavy load on your shoulders．
D．Often times it just seems like something too far out of reach．
E．But they're preventing you from actually getting over that wall．
F．Even if it works for other people，the same thing just doesn't work for us．
G．An obstacle is something you either find a way around or allow to stop you．
