Several days ago,　 I met a stranger in the street who stopped and asked me directions． I 　　　 to show him the way to the destination, but to my 　　　 , he coldly refused my offer. I asked him why. Finally he told me he was 　　　 I would ask him for money if I 　　　 him in this way.

Money! I 　　　 deep into thought. Is it money that comes between us? Money has no 　　　 , it cannot be 　　　 with good or bad.

The problem　 　　　 what attitude we have towards it.

At present, we have a more　 　　　 material life than ever before, but we’re becoming more and more　 　　　 . Why? In my opinion, the　 　　　 is the change in people’s personal 　　　 .They wrongly believe that 　　　 money should be their only aim in life, so they 　　　 all sorts of ways they can to 　　　 this aim.

They are afraid of being 　　　 and fooled. If everyone thinks like this, what will our 　　　 be like?

Needless to say，money is becoming more and more important in our society, 　　　 it shouldn’t be the “be-all and end-all” of life. If a person only concentrates on　 　　　 , he will be lonely and void(空虚), and even go astray(犯错误).

It is up to us to make our lives happy, not money. We should try our best to help others　 　　　 and freely. If everyone does so, our society will be better and better.

Several hundred strangers received “love letters” from a young man on the street. The letter was written and given out by Yang Yang, a student majoring in human resources at Chongqing University of Science and Technology，who hoped to show his disappointment with job hunting.

Yang’s story has caught media attention perhaps because it is similar to those of millions of recent graduates seeking jobs and struggling for survival in the country’s wealthiest cities. They have diplomas, rather than professional skills，and come to big cities in hopes of better lives, only to find low-paying jobs and poor living conditions.

They are China’s “ant tribe(蚁族)”, a term created by sociologist Lian Si from Peking University in his 2009 book, Ant Tribe. “They’re so similar to ants. They share small and narrow living areas. They’re intelligent and hard-working, yet nameless and underpaid.” The term also speaks to their helplessness in a world governed by the law of the jungle -- only the strongest survive.

A survey in Lian’s another book published this year, Ant Tribe II, found nearly 30 percent of “ants” are graduates of famous universities—almost three times last year’s percentage. Most had degrees in popular majors. In addition, 7.2 percent of "ants" have at least a master’s degree compared to 1.6 percent in 2009.

An “ant’s” average monthly salary is l, 904 yuan, with about 64 percent of them earning less than 2,000 yuan a month.

Another survey in the 2010 Annual Report on the Development of Chinese Talent found more than 1 million “ants” live in big cities.

“Most ants are from rural families or small towns, and their experiences in universities didn’t arm them well enough to fight with competitors in big cities’ employment markets.” Professor Zhang Ming at Renmin University of China said.

The “ant tribe’s” embarrassing living situations have become a serious social problem, and the government should develop smaller cities to attract more graduates from big cities, Zhang

believed.

However, “ants” expect more study and training opportunities in big cities, which keeps them positive despite their situations.

1.Yang’s story is introduced in order to_________.

A. analyze graduates’ difficulties in finding jobs

B. lead to the topic of the article—“ant tribe”

C. tell readers a story about those big cities

D. show a clever way of dealing with pressure

2. The “ants” fail to find high-paying jobs mainly because__________.

A. they have no diplomas from good universities

B. their majors do not meet the needs of society

C. those from rural areas are not treated equally

D. they do not have necessary professional skills

3. “Ant tribe” members are similar to ants in the following aspects EXCEPT that_________.

A. they live in narrow and small places in groups

B. they work hard but earn little for survival

C. they are in a world judged by the jungle law

D. they are pleased with being nameless and underpaid

4.Professor Zhang thought “ants” problems could be solved by__________.

A. creating more jobs for graduates in big cities

B. developing smaller cities to attract graduates

C. sending graduates to rural areas and small towns

D. training graduates to improve their ability

The story I’m going to tell truly happened in my life.

“How are you?” I 　 　 with a smile. “I’m doing really well,” he replied in a cheerful voice. His enthusiasm and big smile 　　 　 the parking garage. 　　 　 as he walked up, I 　 　 his long legs were thin and I saw he had a silver cane (手杖). “Why do you need that cane?” I couldn’t　 　　 　 thinking he had a minor injury. “I have MS,” he answered in a　　 　　  voice too, as if his broad smile 　 　 left his face. Multiple Sclerosis（多发性硬化症）is a very serious disease and often painful. I looked at him from my little red sports car and said, “You 　　 　 it very well. You seem like a happy man 　 　 the MS.” Without losing a bit of his smile he replied, “I am a happy man,” and then added, “I’d be even happier if I had that sports 　 　 .”

It was ironic (讽刺的). Just 　 　 we spoke, I’d been sitting in that little sports car, feeling sad about my painful shoulder over the last 11 months as I was 　 　 after an operation. Here’s a man with a 　 　 far tougher than mine, but his positive attitude made him feel no less happiness. He went on with his 　 　 of life as usual, which moved me deeply.

It was also a wonderful reminder of that old 　 　 , “I cried because I had no shoes. Then I met a man who had no feet.” 　 　 your problems, just keep in 　 　 that none of us goes through life 　 　 and you should make the most of what you have, like the man with MS. Count your blessings.

高二英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

STRANGERS parties go wild these days. The main idea of them is to never let the people know who their matches are until the last minute. These are some popular practices that are storming the world’s youth on this V-day.

Speed dating

It’s exactly what the name implies. Complete with a timer, a whistle and 50 willing singles, speed dating is not the traditional dinner and a movie type of first date. Singles pay US $35 for three minutes with more than two dozen future dates. They ask questions and try to get to know each other. At the sound of a whistle, they do the same thing all over again―25 times in all.

Lock and key party

Women are given a lock and men are given a key, upon arriving at the party. Each key and lock has several matches. One can hunt for his/her later-to-be sweetheart in various groups, and try out the key or lock. Each time a lock and key match the pair are entered into a ballot (票数） for top prizes!

Dinner in the dark

Waiters wearing night vision glasses guide the guests through the pitch-black dining room. They are seated at the table and familiarized with the wine glass and plate. Food is handled with the fingers. People will not see the food they are eating or the guests at their table until the dessert course. At that moment, dining partners will appear.

Message party

Have A Cocktail, Leave A Message! When you arrive, you get a tag with a number and a pad of post-it notes. If you see someone you like, write a message on the message board. But wait… You’ve got a message… Go and collect it! You can make new friends and win lots of gifts. The more messages you leave on the bulletin board, the more chances you have of winning prizes.

1.What do you think the similarities of these parties are?

A. All the parties have very strict rules for their members.

B. If you want to go to any of the parties, you have to buy a ticket.

C. All the parties are aimed at strangers who want to be lovers.

D. All the parties are suitable not only for the young but for the old.

2.In which party does a participant have to be careful with the time?

A. Speed dating.                          B. Lock and key party.

C. Dinner in the dark.                    D. Message party.

3.If you go to the Dinner in the dark, ________.

A. you have to eat with your hands

B. you have to wear night vision glasses

C. guests eat all the courses in the darkness

D. your dining partners will help you choose the food

4.How many of the parties offer gifts or prizes?

A. 4.                  B. 3.              C. 2.              D. 1.
