11、 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Most readers consider poetry easy to read but hard to understand. Indeed, poetry embodies the objects and therefore it is thought of as the finest form of literature. Nearly all poets do not express their perceptions directly, usually decorated with various a

12、rtist skills. They describe scenes or persons, but they will not speak it out so directly and truthfully as fiction does. Poets use their imagination through imaginative language; therefore, the image they make is more vivid and impressive. To make it simple, the appreciation of poetry may follow fo

13、ur steps: enjoy the sound when we read, observe the form the poem takes, visualize the image the poet created and at last reflect upon the theme the poet delivers. Here is a short poem revised for you to appreciate and to test how you understand it with the above guidance: ( ) 21. The reason why fis

14、h cries is that . A. he is living in the water B. she will never know he is crying C. he will leave her soon D. he feels lonely ( ) 22. According to the second paragraph, it might be true that . A. water knows fish will love her B. fish doesnt believe in love at first sight C. water doesnt believe i

15、n love at first sight D. water wont talk with fish Fish says to water, I am crying, but you will never know, cause I am living in the water Water says, I know, for you are in my heart Can you see my lonely tears? Maybe, for its lonely lovers tears Fish says to water, do you believe in love at the fi

16、rst sight? Water says, the moment I realize you are fish, I know you will swim into my heart Why every time I ask, you answer? Water says, cause I want you to know me from my answers Fish says to water, Dont you know waiting means losing heart Water says, if only I were the fish and you were the wat

17、er! That is how nice, I will know your thoughts If I were the fish and you were the water, can I swim into your heart? Fish says to water, I will never leave you Water says, I know, but if your heart is away? I wont leave you, cause I love you What I want now is a life times promise, but can you aff

18、ord it? - 4 - ( ) 23. Wishing she were fish, water probably wants to . A. live another kind of life B. know what fish thinks C. understand herself better D. enjoy a nice meal B Science has a lot of uses. It can uncover laws of nature, cure diseases, make bombs, and help bridges to stand up. Indeed,

19、science is so good at what it does that theres always a temptation ( 诱 惑 ) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful. David Brooks, the author of The Social Animal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and Achievement, appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed t

20、o resist the temptation. Brooks gained fame for several books. His latest book The Social Animal, however, is more ambitious and serious than his earlier books. It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics. The book focuses on big questions: What has science revealed about human nature? Wha

21、t are the sources of character? And why are some people happy and successful while others arent? To answer these questions, Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines ( 学科 ). Considering this, you might expect the book to be a dry recitation of facts. But Brooks has structured his book in an unortho

22、dox ( 非 常 规 的 ), and perhaps unfortunate, way. Instead of introducing scientific theories, he tells a story, within which he tries to make his points, perhaps in order to keep the readers attention. So as Harold and Erica, the hero and heroine in his story, live through childhood, we hear about the

23、science of child development and as they begin to date, we hear about the theory of sexual attraction. Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters. On the whole, Brookss story is acceptable if uninspired. As one would expect, his writing is mostly clear and, to be fair, some ch

24、apters stand out above the rest. I enjoyed, for instance, the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own. While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters, the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere. These problems partly involve Brookss atte

25、mpt to translate his tale into science. ( ) 24. The author mentions the functions of science at the beginning of the passage to . A. illustrate where science can be applied B. demonstrate the value of Brookss new book C. remind the reader of the importance of science D. explain why many writers use

26、science in their works ( ) 25. According to the author, which of the following could be a strength of the book? A. Its strong basis. B. Its convincing points. C. Its clear writing. D. Its memorable characters. ( ) 26. What is the authors general attitude towards the book? A. Contradictory. B. Suppor

27、tive. C. Cautious. D. Critical. C Crazy Horse grew up riding horses and hunting buffalo ( 野牛 ). But it was his being brave in the battle that earned him the name Crazy Horse. This was also his fathers name. - 5 - Crazy Horse was one of the greatest Native American chiefs. When the United States gove
