Examples of prejudice in schools include believing that some students are particular type of people simply because of the way they dress or act, or believing that a certain group is good at sports simply because many peop1e in that group are goad at sports. Another example is believing that a boy is good at science because many boys are good at science. I would like to cite more examples from the English literature. The best example of “prejudice” can be found in Jane Austens novels. Her novels in the history of English literature are popularly known as novels of manners.Thus you can clearly understand that where manners and social behavior are concerned，prejudice is inevitable ! Austen s famous novel Pride and Prejudice is the best example in this respect. When you read the novel, the very first line that would strike you is “it is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.”It is an example of 18th century English middle class prejudice that eventually looked upon women just as an object that would serve as the basic sign for a man to establish his manliness and his superior and well acquired financial status. This novel is chiefly about class division，social norms and the consequent human behavior. The characters Elizabeth and Darcy，in their journey of 1ife through the course of the novel, highlight their personal prejudices towards one another that arise from their different social strata(阶层).Darcy，a rich man , at first ,fails to admire the beauty and intelligence of Elizabeth because of her low social status:she is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me;”and Elizabeth，proud of her first impressions，failed to understand the well natured man under the proud and unfriendly Darcy.1. What is prejudice defined in this passage? A. Prejudice is a reasonable idea that is based on ones own experience. B. Prejudice is a preference for one group of people or things over another. C. Prejudice is a preconceived opinion before becoming aware of fact or reason. D. Prejudice is an unreasonable dislike of a particular group of people or things.2. The underlined word inevitable in the second paragraph probably_means_ . A. unavoidable B. reasonable C. unbelievable D. valuable3.From the novel Pride and Prejudice，we cant learn that . A. where manners and social behavior are concerned prejudice is inevitable B. prejudice was defined and compared with“pride” in 18th century C. its about class division，social norms and the consequent human behavior D. personal prejudices towards one another arise from different social strata【参考答案】13、CAB 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。 Pretending to be happy can actually make you more miserableespecially if youre a woman, according to a new study. Researchers found that walking around with a forced smile and faking(假装的)happiness simply led to people feeling gloomier. So, putting a brave face on your woes could actually be counterproductive. The research found that women suffered more than men when pretending to be happy. Psychologist, Dr. Brent Scott, who led the study, said employers should take note because forcing workers to smile when workers were dealing with clients could backfire (产生事的愿违的不良后果). He said:“Smiling for the sake of smiling can lead to emotional exhaustion, and thats bad for the organization.” Dr. Scott said the research showed customer service workers who“faked smiles”throughout a day worsened their moods and then withdrew from work, so their productivity dropped. He added:“Bosses may think that getting their staff to smile is good for the organization, but thats not necessarily the case.”Dr. Scott, assistant professor of management at Michigan State University, analyzed a group of bus drivers during a two week period. The study is one of the first of its kind to examine emotional displays over a period of time and compare the different effects that they have on men and women. His team examined the effects of“surface acting”or fake smilingcompared to what was termed“deep acting”, or cultivating positive emotions by recalling pleasant memories.Dr. Scott said: “Women were harmed more bysurface acting, meaning their moods worsened even more than men and they withdrew more from work. However , they were helped more bydeep acting,which meant their moods improved more.”Dr. Scott suggested women tended to suffer more when pretending to be happy because they were expected to be more emotionally expressive than men. Therefore, faking a smile while they are feeling down is more likely to go against their normal behavior and cause more harmful feelings.Although,“deep acting”seemed to improve moods in the short term, Dr. Scott said it was not a long-term solution to feeling unhappy.He said:“Youre trying to cultivate positive emotions, but at the end of the day you may not feel like yourself any more”61. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Forcing one to smile could make one feel better B. Wearing a fake smile could worsen ones mood C. Always smiling could improve ones performance D. Wearing a fake smile could help one free from sadness62. The finding of the research might serve as a warning to . A. men B. employees C. customers D. bosses63. According to Dr. Brent Scott, . A. most bus drivers have to wear“fake smiles” B. “fake smiles”workers work better than usual C. “fake smiles”might lead to lower productivity D. bosses know the negative effect of forced smiles64. It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that . A. pleasant memories are associated with positive feelings B. men suffer more from fake smiling, compared to women C. women should smile a lot when faced with new challenges D. few employers know how to increase the productivity of their staff65.“Deep acting”is helpful to women in that . A. they forget their trouble B. they will behave normally C. they become more talkative D. their moods are getting better【参考答案】61-65 BDCAD 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。 I live in the land of Disney, Hollywood and year-round sun. You may think people in such a splendid, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness. Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more lasting emotion. Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends. I have often though that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells“happiness”.But in memoir（回忆录）after memoir, they reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism ,drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children and profound loneliness. Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage, if hes honest, and he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment, for commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features. Similarly, couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happiness. They can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they can. Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three-day vacation. I dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating（解放性的）realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those rich and glamorous people we were so sure are happy because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.来源:Z*xx*k.Com66.

Its not that I mind the hard work, or am afraid of coming into contact with toxic substances. What I fear is quickly losing hope about the work I do. However, doing field research with the toxics team, all I see and feel is filthnothing else. Even if I close my eyes, I can smell the smell of food processing, rotting organic waste from paper mills and chemicals from clothing manufacturers. One morning, I went to investigate a discharged pipe to document and collect samples of pollutants secretly being emitted by a textile mill. I had to work with the utmost secrecy in order to avoid being discovered by the textile mill. I dipped a long measuring pole into the large polluting pipe to measure the volume of polluted water being emitted. But the surface of the water, covered in oil and filth, made me feel as if to vomit. All of a sudden, I felt someone hit me on my back. It frightened me so much that I almost fell into the water. I grasped the pole and looked behind me to see an old man standing there. He asked:“Can you catch fish here?”I realized that he thought I was holding a fishing pole, so I kept calm and said: “Yes, I heard that theres a kind of small fish living in this water, and it has medicinal benefits.” The old man grew quite curious and replied:“That may be. If a fish can survive in water as dirty as this , it must have a lot of resistance. So it wouldnt be too strange if such fish had medicinal benefits.” It was clear he was just passing by, so I answered:“Yeah, survival of the fittest. Fish that adapt can survive, just like us humans.” He kept talking to me and didnt want to leave. He wanted to see whether or not I would catch the small fish with medicinal benefits.71.
