Few writers have had such an impact on the thinking of the modem world as British writer George Orwell(1903—1950)．Orwell wrote many things on a variety of topics，for example，poverty in England in the 1930s during the Great Depression and his experience in the Spanish Civil War(1936—1939)．

But he is most famous for his works of fiction，Animal Farm(1945)and，especially，Nineteen Eighty-Four(1949)．These last books became especially influential in the West in the 1950s during the early Cold War years．

In Nineteen Eighty-Four，Orwell imagined a Britain of the future，modeled on the Soviet union(苏联)．His frightening tale of Winston Smith，a regular man who comes into conflict with the government，was close to the fears of many people of the time．Ideas from the novel soon entered everyday culture，and are still in use today．“Big Brother”，for example，is a phrase from the book that refers to how authority is always looking over one’s shoulder. Other phrases used in the novel，1ike“War is Peace”and “Freedom is slavery”are also still used now．Indeed，many people see Orwell’s book as a warning about what might happen if those in power become corrupted．

Even today，Orwell remains an influential voice. Often，writers achieve great fame and popularity，but they don’t affect how people live their everyday lives．UNESCO’S Memory of the World Programme recently decided to include a collection of Orwell’s writings on its register．

The Memory of the World register is similar to UNESCO’s world heritage site program，which protects places and buildings natural features in the world．According to its website，the idea behind the body is“that the world’s documentary evidence belongs to all”and should be “accessible forever to all”．

University College London，which proposed the idea to UNESCO，said in its application that Orwell’s work“had a great influence on human thought in all parts of the world，an influence that remain powerful today”．

1.What do we know about Orwell?

A. He only wrote about imaginary worlds．

B. He liked to follow the style of other writers．

C. His works were based on his own experience．

D. His books were well-received during the Cold War．

2.Orwell wrote the novel Nineteen eight-Four to_______．

A. warn people of the dangers of corruption

B. present various conflicts with the government

C. expose the cruelty of the war in the 20th century

D. describe the serious effects of poverty in England

3.The passage mentioned some phrases from Orwell’s books mainly to__________．

A. stress his ideas are still popular today

B. share some of his ideas with leaders

C. show how he used language in a creative way

D. explain how he described the dark side of society

4.Why would the Memory of the Word register include Orwell’s writings?

A. They are a huge literary success．

B. They introduced a new way of writing．

C. They shaped political systems in Western countries．

D. They continue to have a great effect on human thought.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。

“America’s No.1 Health Problem.” So reads the headline of an article published by the American Institute of Stress that claims the biggest threat to health today is neither cancer nor AIDS. The report says: “It has been estimated（估计）that 75 to 90 percent of all visits to primary care physicians are for stress related problems.”

It is no exaggeration（夸张）to say that people today are being attacked by stress. According to the National Consumers League, “Work is the top source of stress for adults who have problems and stress in their lives (39%), followed by family (30%). Other sources include health (10%), concern about the economy (9%) and concern about international conflict and terrorism (4%).”

However, stress is hardly unique to the United States. A British survey in 2005 estimated that “over half a million individuals in Britain believed in 2004 that they were experiencing work-related stress at a level that was making them ill.” As a result of “work-related stress, depression or anxiety,” there are “an estimated thirteen and a half million reported lost working days per year in Britain.”

The picture is no less bleak in mainland Europe. According to the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work, “work-related stress has been shown to affect millions of European workers across all types of employment sectors.” One survey revealed that there are “about 41 million workers affected by work-related stress each year.”

What about Asia? A report issued by a conference held in Tokyo concluded: “Job stress is a common concern among many countries in the world, both developing and industrialized countries.” The report observed that “several countries in East Asia, including China and Korea, have rapidly industrialized and economically grown. These countries now have a lot of concerns on job stress and its harmful effects on workers’ health.”

A. talk about health problems in America

C. emphasize the stress in America

D. tell readers something about American Institute of Stress

2.From the passage we can learn that 　　　　　　 .

A. both cancer and AIDS are not as serious as the threat of stress to health

B. stress is mainly from working and living pressure

C. Americans never care about international conflict and terrorism

D. people in mainland Europe are more optimistic than English people

3.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ______.

A. Asian people are more willing to develop their countries

B. the rapid economic development is the main reason for stress

C. some people in Asian countries have health problems from employment stress

D. Asian countries have a better situation of stress than Europe

4.What’s the main subject of the passage?
