“What’s wrong with this girl? He said, “Why doesn’t she hurry up?” He moved forward and placed his bag on the counter, hoping to check in first. He was in a hurry to get a good seat.
“这女孩怎么了？”他说道，“她为何不快点？”他走到前面，把包放在台上，希望能先登记。他急着想要得到一个好的座位。
Maria was very angry, but she was very polite. And in her best English she said, “Why are you so upset? There are enough seats for everyone on the plane. If you are in such a hurry, why can’t you give me a hand with my luggage?
Maria很生气，但她很有礼貌。她用最优美的英语说，“你为何如此不耐烦？飞机上的每个人都有座位。假如你真的很急，为何不能帮我搬一下行李？”

Passage 2
There are three kinds of goals: shirt-term, medium-range and long-term goals.
目标有三种：短期目标，中期目标和长期目标。
Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
短期目标是依照每日制定的为了处理目前事物的目标。短期目标能够以少于一个星期，一个星期，两个星期，或者也许的话数月来完成。我们必须记住，地基比楼房更需要坚实，没有扎实的短期目标的实现，所定长期目标是不会有效果的，一旦我们完成了我们的短期目标，我们应当抓住机会，然后在那些完成目标的基础上，再增加新的将要实现的短期目标。短期目标的实现是以此前完成的目标为前提的。
The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.
中期目标是在短期目标的基础上制定的。能够以一个学期或整个年的目标来安排，或者延长至几年。每次你依照目标前进了一步，都不要让自己感到没有信心或者压力重重。当你完成了一个目标，你都会增加你进步和成功的信心。并且当你完成目标越多，你的动力和希望就越大。
Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action. (221 words)
长期目标能够和我们将来的梦想有关联。能够是五年或五年以上的目标。生活不是一成不变的。我们不能让长期目标制约了我们或我们的行为。
16. Our long-term goals mean a lot _________. 假如我们能完成各个短期目标，那么我们的长期目标将意义深远。
A. If we cannot reach solid short-term goals
B. If we complete the short-term goals
C. if we have dreams of the future
D. if we put forward some plans
17. New short-term goals are built upon _________. 短期目标是以此前完成的目标为前提的。
A. a daily basis B. your achievement in a week
C. current activities D. the goals that have been completed
18. When we complete each step of our goals, ________. 每完成一个目标，将会增加我们成功的信心。
A. we will win final success B. we are overwhelmed
C. we should build up confidence of success
D. we should have strong desire for setting new goals

D. We should often add new short-term goals to those which have been completed.

Passage 3
Britain and France are separated by the English Channel, a body of water that can be crossed in as few as 20 minutes. But the cultures of the two countries sometimes seem to be miles apart.
英国和法国被英吉利海峡阻隔，游泳穿越该海峡只要不到20分钟的时间。但这两个国家的文化有时相差十万八千里。
Last Thursday Britain and France celebrated the 100th anniversary (周年龄念) of the signing of a friendship agreement called the Entente Cordiality .The agreement marked a new beginning for the countries following centuries of wars and love-hate partnership.
上星期四，英国和法国庆贺了《友好协议》签定100周年的纪念活动。该协议标志着两个国家在经历了几个世纪的战争和爱恨交织的关系后的新开始。
But their relationship has been ups and downs over the past century. Just last year, there were fierce disagreements over the Iraq war-which British Prime Minister Tony Blair supported despite French President Jacques Chirac speaking out against it. This discomfort is expressed in Blair and Chirac’s body language at international meetings. While the French leader often greets German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder with a hug (拥抱) ，Blair just receives a handshake. However, some political experts say the war in Iraq could in fact have helped ties.
但他们的关系在上个世纪也经历了几番起落。仅去年，对伊拉克战争问题进行了激烈的争论—英国首相布莱尔支持而法国总统希拉克反对。国际会议中，这种别扭在布莱尔和希拉克的身体语言中体现得很明显。当法国领导人频频与德国总理格哈特·施罗德拥抱时，布莱尔只好到了握手。然而，有些政治教授说正是伊拉克战争促进了两国的关系。
The history of divisions may well be because of the very different ways in which the two sides see the world. But this doesn’t stop 12 million Britons taking holidays in France each year. However, only 3 million French come in the opposite direction. Surveys (调查) show that most French people reel closer to the Germans than they do to the British. And the research carried out in Britain has found that only a third of the population believes the French can be trusted. Perhaps this bad feeling comes because the British dislike France’s close relationship with Germany, or because the French are not happy with Britain’s close links with the US.
两国历史上就意见分歧，这重要是因为双方看世界的方式不一样样。不过这并没有阻隔1200万的英国人每年到法国渡假。而法国仅有300万的人民去英国渡假。调查显示大多数法国人对德国人比对英国人亲切。并且在英国进行的调查显示仅有1/3的英国人信任法国人。也许这种坏的感觉是因为英国人不喜欢法国跟德国的亲密关系，或者因为法国对英国和美国的亲密关系感到不悦。
Whatever the answer is, as both sides celebrate 100 years of “doubtful friendship”, they are at least able to make jokes about each other. Here’s one: What’s the best thing about Britain’s relationship with France? The English Channel. (320 words)
无论答案是什么，双方能在一起庆贺这种“不确定的友好关系”100周年，最少证明他们会相互开玩笑了。其中一条就是：英国与法国的关系的最佳见证是什么？是英吉利海峡。
21. For centuries, the relationship between Britain and France is __________. 几世纪以来，英国与法国的关系是什么？
A. friendly B. impolite C. brotherly
D. a mixture of love and hate 一个的爱恨交织的关系。

A. good B. harm C. neither good nor harm

A. As long as the English Channel exists, no further disagreement will form between France and Britain.
B. The English Channel can prevent anything unfriendly happening in both France and Britain.
C. Franc and Britain are near neighbors, and this will help balance the relationship between them. 法国和英国是一衣带水的邻邦，这会协助两国平衡他们之间的关系。
D. The English Channel is the largest enemy between France and Britain.
