第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Jane Eyre tells the story of a good and independent woman, who does not rely on others and does not give up even in the face of many difficulties. Jane is poor and an orphan and is treated badly by her rich aunt and cousins. She is sent away to a school where the pupils are treated very badly. Jane remains strong, because she knows she is good. And when she have the chance to escape and live independently, she does. Jane takes a job as governess in the house of a rich man called Mr Rochester.
Jane falls in love with Mr Rochester who is twenty years older than her. Jane is sad when Rochester brings a beautiful woman Blanche to his house. Jane thinks Rochester will marry Blanche. So she decides to leave. Rochester asks her to stay but she will not. She tells him she loves him and says that she cannot bear to see him married to Blanche. She tells him that just because she is poor and not beautiful; it does not mean that she has no feelings. She speaks to Rochester as a ‘spiritual equal’ and not as his inferior.
Rochester asks Jane to marry him and she agrees, but on the day of the wedding she finds out that Rochester is already married. Jane decides to leave and even though Rochester says his wife is mad and begs Jane to stay, she cannot. She is a moral woman. Jane will not stay with a man who is already married. She has no family to protect and no money, but she is proud and she wants to do the right thing.
Jane is an idealistic young lady who does what is right even if it is a struggle. She is good, intelligent and independent- the equal of any man. Some argue that Jane is the perfect role model.
When Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte was first published, it was called an autobiography and was talked about by critics as such. One of the critics in 1847 said that the story was, ‘so like the truth that it is difficult to avoid believing that many of the characters and incidents are taken from life.’
In Jane Eyre, Charlotte Bronte, like Charles Dickens, shows the double-standards in Victorian Britain. The poor and especially orphans were victimized and not given any protection by the law—they were seen as animals not humans. The rich lived a life of luxury and by giving a little money to charity they thought they had done their best.
56. The first paragraph tells us that .
A. Jane Eyre was criticized by many people
B. what kind of woman Jane Eyre is
C. Jane Eyre hated to be born in a rich family
D. the main idea of the book Jane Eyre
57. The ‘double-standards’ in Victorian Britain refers to .
A. the unequal rights between men and women
B. the different thoughts between adults and children
C. the different lives between material and spiritual worlds
D. the huge differences between the rich and the poor
58. The passage is mainly about .
A. British life in the 19th century
B. Charlotte Bronte’s life and works
C. the book Jane Eyre and its value
D. English literature

Why you should celebrate your mistakes
When you make a mistake, big or small, cherish it like it’s the most precious thing in the world. Because in some ways, it is.
Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, get mad at ourselves.
And that’s only natural: Most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, and we should try to avoid mistakes. We’ve been scolded when we make mistakes—at home, school and work. Maybe not always, but probably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.
Yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. If you think about it that way, mistakes should be cherished and celebrated for being one of the most amazin
