It lies next to a l.5-square-kilometer oasis(绿洲), from where three days and nights are generally required to go out of the desert. However, before Ken Levin discovered it in 1926, none of the Bissel villagers had ever walked out of the desert. Reportedly, they were not unwilling to leave this barren land. Many had previously tried but failed, always somehow finding themselves back at the oasis after several days of trying to walk out.When interviewed by Ken Levin, an expert at the British Royal College of Sciences, the villagers explained that no matter which direction they walked it always brought them back to the village. Why couldnt the Bissel villagers walk out of the desert? Levin was very puzzled. He had, by himself, managed to walk north from the village and reach the nearest town in three and a half days. He decided to carry out an experiment to solve the mystery. He and a Bissel villager called Argutel, would walk out of the desert together. They prepared enough water for a half-a-month journey and two camels. But this time Ken Levin didnt bring his compass. Levin would follow Argutel. Ten days later, they had walked for about 500 miles but were still in the desert. On the 11th morning, an oasis came into their view. They were back at Bissel. Levin now understood why the Bissel people couldnt escape the desert. They had no knowledge of the North Star, which had for centuries provided sailors and other travelers with a point of direction. In the desert, if a person goes forward relying only on their senses, they will not be able to travel in a straight line. Rather they will travel in a very large circle and eventually track back to where they began. Levin explained to Argutel the function of the North Star and said, “As long as you rest in the daytime and walk towards the brightest star at night, you would be able to walk out of the desert.” Argutel did as he was told. Three days later, he came to the edge of the desert. Now in the West Sahara, Bissel has become a bright pearl, where tens of thousands of tourists come every year. Argutels bronze statue stands in the center of the town. On its base are the words: _.21. Villagers in Bissel had never walked beyond the desert because _. A. they were discouraged by their failures B. they had a fear of the outside world C. they had no desire to leave the oasis D. they had no method to find their way out 22. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. the use of a compass was necessary to walk out of the desertB. tourism in Bissel has been greatly developed and improvedC. Argutel became the leader of Bissel after his returnD. Ken Levin didnt walk south because it would take more days 23. Which of the following can most probably be found at the base of Argutels statue? A. Where there is a will, there is a way. B. A long journey starts with the first step C. A new life starts from the fixed direction. D. Two heads are better than one. BThe future of written English will owe more to Hollywood films than Dickens or Shakespeare, if the findings of a study into childrens writing are anything to go by. Researchers who looked at the entries to a national competition found they were increasingly using Americanisms such as garbage, trash can, sidewalk, candy, sneakers, soda, and flashlight.The stories, written by pupils aged 7 to 13, show how fairy cakes are referred to as cupcakes and a dinner jacket has become a tuxedo. “Smart” is now often used for “clever” and “cranky” for “irritable”.Television also has a powerful influence on childrens work, with Lady Gaga and Argentinean footballer Lionel Messi among the famous names from TV cropping up repeatedly.But pupils are let down by basic spelling, punctuation and grammar, according to the study by Oxford University Press (OUP), which looked at the entries to BBC Radio Twos “500 Words” competition.Children struggled to correctly spell simple words such as “does” and “clothes” and often failed to use the past tense correctly, frequently writing “rised” instead of “rose” or “thinked” instead of “thought”.Researchers also found that punctuation was underused, especially semi-colons and speech marks. Some did not know how to use capital letters. However, exclamation marks were overused. Researchers found 35,171 examples in total, with some young writers using five at a time！Popular US fiction such as the Twilight novels and films is thought to be fueling the increasing use of American vocabulary and spelling. Meanwhile, fears that texting was spoiling childrens written work were unfounded, they said, with youngsters only using text language when they were referring to a text message.Samantha Armstrong from OUP said: “Perhaps we are catching a glimpse of the language of the future.” Chris Evans, whose radio show runs the competition, said the results were “fascinating”, adding: “Whod have thought that Messi and Gaga would be some of the most used names?”24. Which of the following was NOT frequently found in the pupils stories? A. A variety of Americanisms. B. Overuse of exclamation marks. C. Names of famous TV stars. D. Text message language. 25. What can we infer from the passage? A. American movies and books are increasingly popular in Britain. B. The national writing competition is organised by Oxford University Press.C. Written English is more influenced by classical literature than popular US Culture.D. Lionel Messi is now the most famous footballer in Britain.26. The underlined phrase “unfounded” in Paragraph 7 probably means _. A. unnoticeable B. not found C. not based on facts D. unbearable 27. The passage is intended to _. A. share the experience about how to teach written English in a correct way B. discuss the noticeable changes and evolution of written English in Britain C. criticize the influence of popular US culture on British childrens language use D. show that British children have spellings and grammar abilitiesC Consumers everywhere are faced with the same dilemma: given limited resources, what sorts of purchases are most likely to produce lasting happiness and satisfaction? Recent research has confirmed that experiential purchases tend to produce greater enjoyment gains than material purchases.The reason why experiences improve with time may be that it is possible to think about experiences in a more abstract manner than possessions. For example, if you think back to a fantastic summer from your youth, you might easily remember an abstract sense of warm sunshine and youthful exuberant (生气勃勃), but youre less likely to remember exactly what you did day by day.Material possessions are harder to think about in an abstract sense. The car you bought is still a car, that great new jacket you picked up cheap is still just a jacket. Its more likely the experience of that summer has taken on a symbolic meaning that can live longer in your memory than a possession.Material purchasing may have a negative impact on happiness because consumers often buy “joyless” material possessions, resulting in comfort but not pleasure. In general, people adapt to experiences more slowly than to material purchase. This can be seen in both negative and positive purchases: enjoyment adaptation would result in a positive experience causing more happiness but a negative experience causing less happiness than the comparable material purchase with the same initial happiness level.Experience, however, seems to be more resistant to these sorts of unfavourable comparisons. It is because of the unique nature of experience. Its more difficult to make an unfavourable comparison when there is nothing directly comparable. After all, each of our youthful summers is different.Its well established that social comparisons can have a huge effect on how we view what might seem like positive events. One striking example is the finding that people prefer to earn $50,000 a year while everyone else earns $25,000, instead of earning $100,000 themselves and having other people earn $200,000.A similar effect is seen for possessions. When there are so many flat-screen HD TVs to choose from, its easy to make unfavourable comparisons between our choice and the others available.28. An abstract sense in the passage refers to awareness of something _. A. you cant remember wellB. you cannot understand C. you cannot see or touchD. you cannot think about 29. If you make an experiential purchase before a material purchase, you may go to_. A. an exhibition before going to a parkB. a mall before going to a grocers C. a market before going to a restaurantD. a theatre before going to a store 30. The example of earnings is given to actually indicate_. A. how people feel contentB. how nearsighted people are C. how people hold prejudice D. how ridiculous people are 31. It is implied in the passage that, after their material purchases, people might_. A. pick every fault in the products they have got B. regret making a wrong decision to buy the items C. leave what theyve purchased untouched at home D. enjoy their ownership of what they have boughtD1234 PENS is your No. 1 source for promotional pens, advertising pens, andlogo pens.
