Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups—porcelain(瓷), plastic, glass—telling them to help themselves to the coffee. Meanwhile the professor stood nearby watching.When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said, “If you have noticed, all the nice-looking expensive cups have been taken up, the plain and cheap ones being left behind. It is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, which is the source of your problems and stress.” “Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really want is coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups… And then you began eyeing each other's cups.” “Now consider this：Life is the coffee；the jobs，money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of the life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup，we fail to enjoy the coffee. Savor（品味）the coffee，not the cups! Don't let the cups drive you… enjoy the coffee instead.” After listening to his words, the students tasted coffee carefully and found it more delicious than ever. 24. Why did the professor take out various cups with a large pot of coffee？ A. To show his wealth.                       B. To offer more choices to students.  C. To tell students the philosophy of life.        D. To match different coffee tastes.25. According to the professor, what is the source of the students' problems and stress? A. Looking for good jobs.                       B. Pursuing perfection. C. Buying a big house.                         D. Searching for nice companions.26. Why did students eye each other's cups？ A. To exchange their coffee with others.          B. Only to talk about their coffee. C. To intend to have others' cups.               D. To make sure their own cups were better. 27. What does the passage mainly tell us？   A. Learn to enjoy your life.                       B. Cups are nothing. C. Coffee is the best.                            D. The appearance is everything  CAt eleven, I decided to learn to swim. There was a pool at the Y. M. C．A．offering exactly the opportunity. Mother continually warned against it, and kept fresh in my mind the details of each drowning in the river. But the Y. M. C．A．pool was safe. I had a childhood fear of water. This started when I was three years old and father took me to the beach. The huge waves knocked me down and swept over me. The pool was quiet. I was afraid of going in all alone, so I sat on the side of the pool to wait for others. Then came a big boy. He yelled, "Hi, Skinny! How'd you like to be ducked?" With that he picked me up and threw me into the deep end. I landed in a sitting position, and swallowed water. But I was not frightened out of my wits-when my feet hit the bottom, I would make a big jump, come out of the surface. It seemed a long way down. I gathered all my strength when I landed and made what I thought was a great spring upwards. Then I opened my eyes and saw nothing but water. I tried to yell but no sound came out. I went down, down, endlessly. When I came to consciousness, I found myself lying on the bed in the hospital. I never went back to the pool. I avoided water whenever I could. This misadventure stayed with me as the years rolled by. It deprived me of the joy of boating and swimming. Finally, I decided to get an instructor. Piece by piece, he built a swimmer. Several months later, the instructor was finished, but I was not. Sometimes the terror would return. This went on until July. I swam across the Lake Wentworth. Only once did the terror return. When I was in the middle of the lake, I put my face under and saw nothing but bottomless water. I laughed and said, "Well, Mr. Terror, what do you think you can do to me?"I had conquered my fear of water.28．The author's original fear of water was caused by__________.A．an outing to the beach with his father       B．his mother's warning of drowningC.his poor skill in swimming                 D．an unpleasant memory of the pool29．Why was the author not scared to death when he was thrown into the water?A．He knew how to swim in the pool.B．He felt that the Y. M. C．A．pool was safe. C. He came up with an idea to go upwards.D. He was waiting for others to save him.30．By "but I was not" in paragraph 5, the author probably means"A. he was still a poor swimmer            B. he was not afraid of drowning any moreC. he had not overcome the fear yet   D. he was not satisfied with the swimming training31．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. My Passion for Swimming                        B. Hello, Childhood FearC.A Swimming Adventure               D. Goodbye, Mr. Terror   DWhy did Christopher Columbus, who never set foot on North America, get a national holiday in his name? This is in sharp contrast to Juan Ponce de Leon (who arrived in Florida in 1513), Alonso Alvarez de Pineda (whose ships arrived in what’s now known as Corpus Christi Bay in Texas in 1519) and Giovanni da Verrazzano, who reached New York Harbor in 1524.Actually, until the mid-1700s, Christopher Columbus was not widely known among most Americans. It started to change in the 1820s when Italian immigrants began moving to the United States in sizable numbers in search of opportunity and a better life. But the new arrivals were not welcomed by all. They were often described as short in size, dark in skin, cruel and too emotional.These anti-Italian feelings led to one of the largest mass killings in New Orleans in 1891, when 11 Italian immigrants were hanged without trial after police chief David Hennessy, known for his arrests of Italian Americans, was killed. The cruel killing angered Italy, which threatened to cut off diplomatic relations with the US. In an attempt to please Italian government and acknowledge the contributions of Italian Americans on the 400th anniversary of Columbus’ arrival in South America, President Benjamin Harrison in 1892 declared a nationwide celebration of “Discovery Day”, recognizing Columbus as “the pioneer of progress”. In 1934, President Franklin D．Roosevelt made it a national holiday, and in 1971 Congress changed the date from October 12 to the second Monday of October. The first state to officially observe Columbus Day was Colorado in 1906.However, not every state was happy about the national holiday honoring Columbus. Three states with significant native populations—Hawaii, Alaska and South Dakota—do not observe the day at all. In 1990, South Dakota decided to celebrate “Native American Day” instead In Hawaii the state chose to celebrate “Discoverers’ Day”, The city of Berkeley in California was the first to declare in 1992 that it would be celebrating “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” on the same day when the rest of the country would be celebrating Columbus.32．Who is the first man to arrive in North America?A．Christopher Columbus.               B．Juan Ponce de Leon.C．Alonso Alvarez de Pineda.                D．Giovanni da Verrazzano.33．What can we learn from the text?A．Italian immigrants were badly treated in the US.B．Discovery Day is welcomed by the native Americans.C．Discoverers’ Day is celebrated in every state in the US.D．Columbus arrived in the US on the second Monday of October.34．In which state was Indigenous Peoples’ Day first celebrated?A．Hawaii.         B．Colorado.      C．California.   D．Alaska.35．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A．The Origins of Different American HolidaysB．How Did Columbus Sail Into the US Holidays?C．What Is the So-called Indigenous Peoples’ Day?D．A Brief Introduction to Italian Immigrants in the US第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to deal with stress at schoolStress is part of students’ life.
