10、分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出最佳选项。A Chinese writers seldom win a big prize in the world. One of those prizes is the Hans Christian Andersen Prize, the highest honor in the world that can be given to an author and an illustrator of childrens books. No Chinese writer had ever won it, until April 4,
11、 2016, when 62-year-old Cao Wenxuan received the prize. Cao received the honor at the Bologna Childrens Book Fair in Italy. Patricia Aldana praised Caos “deeply humanistic” books. These novels admit that life can be sad for children. Instilling children with good virtues for the sake of humankind is
12、 something that Cao stresses. He said, “Its time for us to alter our understanding of reading. Books should bring not only joy to young readers, but also have their ideas about life.” That feature of his works has touched many adults too. “The common choice of the judges, Cao writes beautifully abou
13、t the lives of children facing great challenges,” said Aldana. After his success, Cao praised good translation for bringing attention to his work. Chinese childrens literature could get high honor in the world if it were correctly translated in a style that could be easily understood, he said. Other
14、 writers, including Jin Bo, have also blamed poor translation as the reason why Chinese literature fails to get honor in the world. Jin was named for the Hans Christian Andersen Prize in 1992, but at that time, he had to translate, in a hurry, several paragraphs from his book to give to the judges.
15、On one hand, the jury has little knowledge of Chinese authors. On the other hand, it is we ourselves who didnt introduce our work andpromote (促进) ourselves enough, he said in a class in 2013.21. According to the passage, Cao was awarded, because .A. the children in his books are poor B. he wrote boo
16、ks for childrenC. his books are about human kindnessD. he came to the Bologna Childrens Book Fair22. According to Cao, reading should . A. change the ideas of children on booksB. help kids kill time gladly C. bring more joy to childrenD. make children think actively about life23. The last paragraph
17、suggests that most Chinese writers . A. poorly translate their books into EnglishB. failed to get to know the judgesC. didnt try to introduce their books to foreignersD. didnt know how to introduce themselvesB You may think, salt is just a simple cooking element we shake on our food for a littleextr
18、a taste. But salt is much more than that. Without salt our muscles would not move. Our nervous systems would not operate. Our hearts would not beat. But do not think rubbing salt in a wound will help. Doing that would be painful and not heal the wound. To rub salt in a wound is an idiom that means t
19、o purposefully make a bad situation worse. Early humans got the salt they needed to stay alive from the animals they killed. But advances in agriculture led to a diet low in salt. So, humans needed to find other sources. Those who lived near the ocean or other natural sources for salt were lucky. Th
20、ose who did not had to trade for salt. In fact, people used salt as a method of payment in many parts of the ancient world. The word “salary” comes from the word “salt”. Salt also played an important part in population movement and world exploration. Explorers understood that if they could keep food
21、 fresh, they could travel longer distances. So they used salt to preserve food and explored the world. Salt was so important that, according to food historians, it was traded pound-for- pound for gold. Today, people still use the expressions “to be worth ones salt” or “worth ones weight in salt”. Th
22、e expressions describe a person of value. A person might also be called “salt of the earth”. That description means he or she is dependable and trustworthy. However, when you say “I think we should take what he said with a grain of salt” you mean you accept it but maintain a degree of doubt about it
23、s truth.24. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. Salt plays an important part in our life.B. Salt makes food tasty.C. Salt is considered to be part of our muscles.D. Salt is sure to damage nervous systems.25. A beggars bread was stolen last night, which means .A. salt of the earthB. rubbing
24、 salt in a woundC. a diet low in saltD. worth his salt26. If you describe a person as a great help, you mean .A. he is called salt of the earthB. he is often taken as a grain of saltC. he often uses salt to preserve meatD. he is worth his weight in salt27. Which of the following is the best title fo
25、r the passage?A. Salt is more than a four-letter wordB. Salt is a basic element in cookingC. Salt is a word with a long historyD. Salt is popular with different personsCI love charity(慈善) shops and so do lots of other people in Britain because you find quite a few of them on every high street. The c
26、harity shop is a British institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods, all at very good prices. You can get things you wont find in the shops anymore. The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profit-driven companies, a
27、nd you are not damaging the planet, but finding a new home for unwanted goods. The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam. The famous charitys appeal to aid postwar Greece had been so successful it had been flooded with donations(捐赠物). They decided to set up a shop to sell some of these dona
28、tions to raise money for that appeal. Now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the UK. My favourite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop, where I always find childrens books, all 10 or 20 pence each. Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, although there is ofte
29、n a manager who gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. Every morning you see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops, although they dont encourage this, rather ask people to bring things in when the shop is open. The shops have very low running cos
30、ts: all profits go to charity work. Charity shops raise more than 110 million a year, funding(资助) medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and much more. What better place to spend your money? You get something special for a very good price and
31、 a good moral sense. You provide funds to a good cause and tread lightly on the environment. 28. The author loves the charity shop mainly because of .

Charity Shop: Where You Buy to Donate. D. The Publics Concern about Charity Shops. DIt was the summer of 1965. DeLuca
34、, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend. Buck asked DeLuca about his plans for the future. “Im going to college, but I need a way to pay for it,” DeLuca recalls saying. “Buck said, You should open a sandwich shop. ”That afternoon, they agreed to be partners. And they set a goal: to open 32 st
35、ores in ten years. After doing some research, Buck wrote a check for $1000. DeLuca rented a storefront(店面) in Connecticut, and when they couldnt cover their start-up costs, Buck kicked in another $1000. But business didnt go smoothly as they expected. DeLuca says, “After six months, we were doing po
36、orly, but we didnt know how badly, because we didnt have any financial controls.” All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs. DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in
37、 New York. Theyd meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. “We convinced ourselves to open a second store. We figured we could tell the public, We are so successful, we are opening a second store. ” And they didin the spring of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learning
38、by trial and error. But the partners learn-as-you-go approach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every Friday, DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliver the checks to pay their suppliers. “It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasnt necessary, but as a result, the suppliers got to
39、know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out,” DeLuca says. And having a goal was also important. “There are so many problems that can get you down. You just have to keep working toward your goal,” DeLuca adds. DeLuca ended up founding Subway Sandwich, the multimil

Delayi
44、ng it longer will only make you feel worse, or may drive you toward making the wrong decision to try and cover it up. 37 Do not play the “blame game”. Most people are smart enough to realize that this is just a poor attempt to protect yourself. Perhaps you gave a task to another person and it was ne
45、ver completed. But is it really the entire fault of the person you gave the task to or is it partially your fault for not following up? Keep this in mind before placing the blame on someone else. 38 Maybe you broke your mothers favorite vase, or even forgot a friends birthday. Just an apology can so
46、metimes be viewed as a “quick fix”, and apologizing and asking to be forgiven gives the person opportunity to forgive you.
