A good book may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget our surroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures in life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading, our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction. With a good book in our hands we need never be lonely. Whether the characters portrayed are taken from real life or are purely imaginary, they may become our companions and friends. In the pages of books we can walk with the wise and the good of all lands and all times. The people we meet in books may delight us either because they resemble human friends whom we hold or because they present unfamiliar types whom we are glad to welcome as new acquaintances. Our human friends 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 3 sometimes may bore us, but the friends we make in books need never weary us with their company. By turning the page we can dismiss them without any fear of hurting their feelings. When human friends desert us, good books are always ready to give us friendship, sympathy, and encouragement. One of the most valuable gifts bestowed by books is experience. Few of us can travel far from home or have a wide range of experiences, but all of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books. Whether we wish to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life or whether we long to visit some far-off place, a book will help us when nothing else can. To travel by book we need no bank account to pay our way; no airship or ocean liner or stream-lined train to transport us; no passport to enter the land of our heart's desire. Through books we may get the thrill of hazardous adventure without danger. We can climb lofty mountains, brave the perils of an Antarctic winter, or cross the scorching sands of the desert, all without hardship. In books we may visit the studios of Hollywood; we may mingle with the gay throngs of the Paris boulevards; we may join the picturesque peasants in an Alpine village or the kindly natives on a South Sea island. Indeed, through books the whole world is ours for the asking. The possibilities of our literary experiences are almost unlimited. The beauties of nature, the enjoyment of music, the treasures of art, the triumphs of architecture, the marvels of engineering, are all open to the wonder and enjoyment of those who read. 16. Why is it that we sometimes forget our surroundings and even our identity while reading? A. No one has come to disturb you. B. Everything is so quiet and calm around you. C. The book you are reading is so interesting and attractive. D. Your book is overdue; you are finishing it at a very fast speed. 17. How would you account for the fact that people like their acquaintances in books even more? A. They resemble human friends exactly. B. They are unfamiliar types we like. C. They never desert us. D. They never hurt our feelings. 18. Which of the following is true? A. Your wish to visit some far-off place can be realized through the pages of the books. B. To escape from the dull realities of everyday life you should take up reading. C. Books can always help you to live a colourful life. D. You may obtain valuable experience from reading good books. 19. The word “weary” means ______. A. “to attract someone’s attention” B. “to distract someone’s attention” 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 C. “to make someone very tired” D. “to make someone interested” 20. “... the whole world is ours for the asking” implies that ____________. A. in books the world is more accessible to us B. we can ask to go anywhere in the world C. we can make a claim to everything in this world D. we can make a round-the-world trip free of charge (D)本书主要讲读好书的益处。 C 细节理解题。由第一段第二句(absorb our attention completely)可知。 C 推理判断题。由第二段第五、六和七句可知。 D 细节理解题。由第二段第八句 One of the most valuable gifts bestowed by books is experience. 可知。 C 猜测词义题。由两个分句的转折关系可知 never weary 应与 bore 反义，即 weary 与 bore 同义，都是“使 人疲倦/厌烦”之意。 A 推理判断题。由该句所处的语境可推知。 【2014 高考英语二诊考试】 请阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的 A，B，C，D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 C It is hard to imagine that such a small country，the size of Indiana with the population of Alaska，tucked in the Himalaya Mountains，accessible only by two airplanes，is the “Happiest Country’’ in the world and has one of the fastest growing GDP’S in the world．This country is Bhutan，“Land of the Thunder Dragon”，which is located in South Asia and is encompassed by India，China，and Nepal． Bhutan is the last standing Buddhist Kingdom in the World and，until recently，has preserved much of their culture since the l7th century by avoiding globalization and staying isolated from the world．Internet，television，and western dress were banned from the country up until ten years ago．Over the past ten years globalization has begun to change in Bhutan，but things remain perfectly balanced． Bhutan is the only country in the world that has a ‘GNH’，which refers to “Gross National 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 Happiness．’’The process of measuring GNH began when Bhutan opened up to globalization．It measures people’s quality of life，and makes sure that “material and spiritual development happen together．”Bhutan has done an amazing job of finding this balance．Bhutan has continually been ranked as the happiest country in all of Asia，and the eighth Happiest Country in the world according to Business Week．In 2007，Bhutan had the second fastest growing GDP in the world，at the same time as maintaining their environment and cultural identity． In 2008，in Bhutan’s first democratic election，28-year-old Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wang Chuck was elected president of Bhutan．He promises to “maintain a stance （立场)of protection against the worst aspects of globalization，maintaining the ‘Gross National Happiness’．”But Jigme himself is no stranger to globalization．He attended high school at Phillips Academy and university at Wheaton College and then graduated from Oxford． 44．The underlined word “encompassed’’ in the first paragraph most probably means __________ .

Most physicians have a contract relationship with one or more hospitals in the community. They send their patients to this hospital, which usually charges patients according to the number of days they stay and the facilities(operating room, tests, medicines that they use). Some hospitals belong to a city, a state or, in the case of veteran's hospitals, a federal government agency. Others are operated by religious orders(教会) or other non-profit groups. Some medical doctors are on salary. Salaried physicians may work as hospital staff members, or residents, who are often still in training. They may teach in medical schools, be hired by corporations to care for their workers or work for the federal government's Public Health Service. Physicians are among the best paid professionals in the United States. In the 1980s, it was not uncommon for medical doctors to earn incomes of more than $ 100 000 a year. Specialists, particularly surgeons, might earn several times that amount. Physicians list many reasons why they deserve to be so well rewarded for their work. One reason is the long and expensive preparation required to become a physician in the United States. Most would be physicians first attend college for four years, which can cost nearly $ 20 000 a year at one of the best private institutions. Prospective physicians then attend medical school for four years. Tuition alone can exceed $ 10 000 a year. By the time they have obtained their medical degrees, many young physicians are deeply in debt. They still face three to five years of residency(实习阶段) in a hospital, the first year as an apprentice physician. The hours are long and the pay is relatively low. Setting up a medical practice is expensive, too. Sometimes several physicians will decide to establish a group practice, so they can share the expense of maintaining an office and buying equipment. These physicians also take care of each other's patients in emergencies. Physicians work long hours and must accept a great deal of responsibility. Many medical procedures, even quite routine ones, involve risk. It is understandable that physicians want to be well rewarded for making decisions which can mean the difference between life and death. 1. According to the passage, it is very unlikely that an American hospital is owned by _______. A. a church B. a corporation C. a city D. a state 2. The expenses for becoming a doctor are spent on _______. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 7 A. schooling and retraining B. practice in a hospital C. facilities he or she uses D. education he or she receives 3. According to the passage, how long does it take for a would-be physician to become an independent physician in the USA? A. About seven years. B. Eight years. C. Ten years. D. About twelve years. 4. Sometimes several physicians set up a group medical practice mainly because _______. A. there are so many patients that it is difficult for one physician to take care all of them B. they can take turns to work long hours C. facilities may be too much of a burden for one physician to shoulder D. no one wants to assume too much responsibility 5 Which of the following statements could fully express the author's view towards physicians’ payment in the USA? A. For their expensive education and their responsibility, they deserve a handsome pay. B. It is reasonable for physicians to have a large income because their work is very dangerous. C. Physicians should be better paid because they work long hours under bad conditions. D. Physicians have great responsibility, so it is understandable that they should be well rewarded.
