Mary Wollstonecraft, a famous writer, was born on April 27, 1759 in Spitalfields, London. She grew up in a difficult family situation. His father was violent and drunken every day. In 1778, she was tired of such a life and decided to take a job as a lady’s companion to Sarah Dawson. This proved a difficult experience as she didn’t get on well with the old lady.

However, around this time, she made friends with Fanny Blood, who played an

important role in helping her overcome the challenges. The two became very close and Fanny Blood’s death in 1785 was quite a shock to Mary.

For a while, Mary worked as a tutor in a large Irish family. She had a talent for

teaching but took a dislike to Lady Kingsborough. To Mary, Kingsborough was not an ideal woman. In Lady Kingsborough, she saw a woman with no real independence, but just concerned about appearances and pleasing men. Mary later developed her thoughts on the concept of a good wife.

Mary had a desire to become a writer. Mary returned to London where she met with

famous men such as Thomas Paine, William Godwin and Joseph Johnson. In London, she became more aware of new political and philosophical ideas. The late eighteenth century

was an age of change. The old “divine rights(王权神授）” of kings was being replaced with

greater faith in human reason and liberty(自由).

In 1790, she wrote the Vindication of the Rights of Men. This sought to defend (保卫)

the principles of the French Revolution against Edmund Burke's conservative critique (批

评). Shortly after the Vindication of the Rights of Men, Mary wrote A Vindication of the

Rights of Women. This was a ground-breaking book, as it proposed women were the equal

of men.

56.  How old was Mary when she met Sarah Dawson?

A.19. B.26. C.31. D.33.

57.  What gave Mary strength during her early difficult time?

1. Meeting with Thomas Paine.
2. Teaching in an Irish family.
3. Fanny Blood’s friendship.
4. Lady Kingsborough’s guidance.

58.  What did Mary say about Kingsborough?

1. She was a good wife.
2. She was a talented woman.
3. She was very beautiful.
4. She was not independent enough.

59.  What idea does A Vindication of the Rights of Women mainly deliver?

1. Women should unite to fight to the death.
2. Women should have the same rights as men.
3. Women should serve as good wives for men.
4. Women should maintain their relationships with men.

60.  What’s the genre（类型）of this passage?

A. Biography B.Poem C. Argumentation D. Exposition(说明文)

C

Have you ever heard someone say “You totally look like you’re a Jessica” or something similar? People seem to think that they know what kind of person a “Jessica” or a “Michael” looks like. Why is this?

According to a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,

humans tend to associate people’s names with their appearances, and can even guess someone’s name based on how they look.

Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel, collected thousands of

photos of people’s faces. They labeled each photo with four names. Then, they asked volunteers to guess which of the four names was correct.

The volunteers were able to guess the right name 38% of the time. It seems that certain

characteristics of faces give them clues about someone’s name, Reader’s Digest reported.

However, this only worked when the volunteers looked at names from their own culture. In addition, the volunteers were not as good at guessing the real names of people

who used nicknames (昵称) more often than their real names. This may show that a

person’s appearance is affected by their name only if they use it often.

“This kind of face-name matching happens because of a process of self-fulfilling prophecy(预言), as we become what other people expect us to become,” Ruth Mayo from

tile university told science news website EurekAlert.

Earlier studies have shown that gender(性别) and race stereotypes(刻板印象) can

affect a person’s appearance. The researchers believe there are also similar stereotypes about names. For example, people tend to think that men named Bob should have rounder faces because the word itself looks round. People may think that women named Rose are beautiful. They expect them to be “delicate” and “female”, just like the flower they are named for.

61.  How is this article developed?

A By giving examples. B. By asking questions.

C. By doing a research.

62.  What can be inferred from the study?

4. By comparing different things.

1. Volunteers found it much easier to guess nicknames.
2. Names have different associations in different cultures.
3. Volunteers could guess the characteristics of the interviewees.
4. The people in the photos and volunteers were from the same culture.

63.  Why do some people look like their names according to Ruth Mayo?

1. They want to please everyone around them.
2. They don’t want to be different from others.
3. They tend to become what others expect them to become.
4. They like to copy famous people who share the same name.

64.  What may be the best title for this passage?

1. What determines our names
2. Why we look like our names
3. How we get rid of our stereotypes
4. How stereotypes affect people’s looks

65.  Where can you find this passage?

A. a novel B. a poster C. a magazine D. an advertisement

阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

Grandparents’ Day is a warm holiday that allows children and adults an opportunity to show their appreciation for their Grandparents. Grandparents’ Day and the weeks just

before it are the time when children all over the country start thinking about what to get

their Grandmothers and Grandfathers as presents for Grandparents’ Day. Of course, giving presents is just one way of celebrating Grandparents’ Day, but how to give gifts requires planning.

Choosing presents for Grandparents’ Day can be a very difficult task. Because

Grandparents’ Day and holidays of its kind are meant to honor some of the most important people in our lives, the task of choosing presents that will be appropriate can be challenging. You don’t know what they like and what can show how much you love and care for them. Especially for those children who do not have much money, finding the suitable Grandparents’ Day present at the right price is a very difficult task.

One solution to the difficulty is not to buy anything at all. Rather than buying a material item that is almost sure to be short of expressing the depth and sincerity(诚心诚意)

of your feelings for your Grandmother or Grandfather, consider another kind of choice entirely. One way that you can show a Grandparent that you really care is to make them something. A handmade card or flower or a written poem can go a long way towards expressing your love on Grandparents’ Day. Of course, there are also a lot more other ways to celebrate Grandparents’ Day than by just giving presents to your parents.

66．What does Grandparents’ Day mean to people? (No more than 10 words)

67．What is challenging when you choose presents? (No more than 10 words)

68．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “appropriate” ? (one word)

69．What gifts can best show your love to your grandparents? (No more than 10 words)

70．What gift would you prepare for Grandparents’ Day? And Why? (No more than 25

words)
