阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Making a living as a columnist(专栏作家) is the dream of many writers, but it’s a tough field to break into. You can find columns in magazines and newspapers. If you have a way with words and love to express your own opinions, perhaps you have what it takes to write a weekly column!
A column is similar to an essay. Generally speaking, you write from your own knowledge, without having to rely on too much research. Columnists typically cover their area of expertise. Where do your interests lie? You may be able to create a column based on one of those interests, if there are enough readers with the same interest.
Studying other columns may help you work out the details of your own column. Look through a newspaper and identify at least three different columns. List them and include the category each falls under. Because columns are limited to a certain amount of space in print form, columnists learn to write within certain word limits.
To make your project different from a personal essay, you’re going to use present tense in your column any time you describe a personal experience. Additionally, you’re
版权所有:中华资源库 www.ziyuanku.com
going to write in the viewpoint of the second person. It may seem strange to always write the words “you” and “your” in the place of “I” and “my”, but this is the way you are going to draw the readers into your column. Of course, the readers will recognize that you----as the author---- are writing from your own experience, but the goal is to make the readers feel as if they are experiencing the event that you describe. 36. The passage mainly tells us ______.
A. how to become a columnist B. what a column is C. how to show your opinion D. what a columnist is
37. The underlined word “each” in the third paragraph refers to each “______”. A. opinion B. column C. article D. columnist 38. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. A columnist must pay attention to the national science and technology. B. To be a columnist, you should be good at expressing your ideas. C. Referring to many other columns is a good way to plan your column. D. What a columnist writes is different from a personal essay. 39. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Columnists normally travel to the areas they would like to.
B. Columnists don’t deal with the area which they are not good at. C. Columnists usually write a column based on their special knowledge. D. Columnists always deal with some topics readers are interested in.
B
Some popular expressions are a mystery. No one is sure how they developed. One of these is the expression “carry a chip on your shoulder”. A person with a chip on his shoulder is a problem for anybody who must deal with him. He seems to be expecting trouble.
A chip is a small piece of something. How did this chip get on a person’s shoulder? Well, experts say the expression appears to have been first used in the United States more than one hundred years ago.
One writer believes that the expression might have come from an old saying. The saying warns against striking too high, or a chip might fall into your eye. That could be good advice. If you strike high up on a tree with an axe, the chip of wood that is cut off will fall into your eye.
Later, in the US, some people would put a real chip on their shoulder as a test. They wanted to start a fight. They would wait for someone brave enough to try to hit it off. The word chip appears in a number of special American expressions. Another is “a chip off the old block”. This means that a child is exactly like a parent.
This expression goes back at least to the early sixteen hundreds. The British writer George Colman wrote these lines in 1762. “You’ll find him his father’s own son, I believe. A chip off the old block, I promise you!”
The word chip can also be used in a threatening way to someone who is suspected of wrongdoing. An investigator may say, “We’re going to let the chips fall where they may.” This means the investigation is going to be complete and honest. It is also a warning that no one will be protected from being found guilty.

C. The American writer George Colman was the first to use “a chip off the old

When I was in high school, I had a recurring(反复的)dream of my teeth falling out. I dreamt about my teeth just about every night for at least three weeks. Sometimes they would fall out one at a time, sometimes all at once. I became
terrified that my dreams meant I would actually lose my teeth. Nine years later and about a million trips to the dreams, I still have a full set of teeth, but I’ve learned that when we’re experiencing stress in our lives, it tends to show up in our dreams as well.
Miller says losing teeth indicates burdens that crush your pride. If your teeth are knocked out, you’ll have sudden misfortune. Other explanations for dreams about lost teeth are that the dreamer is feeling powerless in life and may be in a transitional (过度的) period from one situation of life to another. Some experts believe that dreams of losing teeth today show we’re just as insecure and uncertain as we were in childhood.
When I dreamt about my teeth back in high school, I was trying to choose a college---a stressful decision. The dreams resurfaced when college graduation rolled around four years later and I’m sure they’ll start again when I graduate. A little of stress in our everyday lives is normal. But sometimes it becomes such a regular occurrence in our lives that it influences our dreams and causes us to lose valuable sleep. Understanding our dreams is key to identifying and ending stress in our waking hours and restoring peace to our nighttime hours.
44. We know from the text that those who dreamt about losing his teeth indicates that_____.
A. they will have sudden misfortune B. they are feeling powerless in life
C. they are as insecure and uncertain as they were in childhood D. they are experiencing stress in their lives
45. How many different kinds of explanations are mentioned in the text about losing teeth?
版权所有:中华资源库 www.ziyuanku.com
A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five 46. The underlined expression “rolled around” means ______.
A. came about B. came down C. came near D. rolled out 47. We can infer from the text that ______.
A. our dream can reflect what we go through in our real life B. dreams can damage our valuable sleep
C. we only dream when we are under great pressure
D. our dreams can show us what will happen in the future

A brief history of the garbage plate
The garbage plate was born in Rochester, New York, at Nick Tahou Hots, a landmark restaurant famous for this great example of American extreme cuisine. The earliest version goes all the way back to 1918, when it was originally called “Hots and Potatoes”. The regular customers called it by the nickname “Hots and Po-tots” and it was basically a plate piled high with fried potatoes, baked beans, hot dogs, onions, mustard, and a chili-like meat sauce.
It wasn’t until many years later that the dish was officially renamed the
“Garbage Plate”. The restaurant and bar had become very popular with Rochester’s large community of college students, who upon seeing this huge plate of food, and not knowing what exactly it was called on the menu, would simply ask the waitresses, “Can I get one of those plates with all the garbage on it?” The modern day of the garbage plate
Today, this bizarre dish is a popular item all over the Rochester area, and each restaurant uses their own particular blend of ingredients. Depending on where you go, it may be called a “trash plate” or a “dumpster plate” instead. In recent years, the cheeseburger has replaced the hot dog as the most popular type of garbage plate. Custom dictates you get your choice of two base items, from a list that includes home fries, pasta salad, baked beans and cheese, French fries, among others. After the starchy foundation is formed, it’s topped with either grilled hot dogs, cheeseburgers, eggs, fish, or whatever else the place you happen to be at offers. Oh, and don’t forget the meat sauce, onions, and bright yellow mustard! Watch one chef as he prepares this meal
If you would like to see a garbage plate being made step by step, here is the link. 1. First the Macaroni salad is put on the plate. 2. Then come the home fries. 3. Time for the hot dogs.
