二、阅读理解(共15小题,每小题4分,共60分)
A
Humur has been an essential part f human behaviur fr thusands f years. There is cmedy in the texts f Ancient Greece, and medieval writings are filled with jkes. While these same jkes might nt be as funny t us nw as they were then, their authrs understd that humur culd nt nly entertain but als thrw new light n sensitive r emtive issues.
Clser t mdern times, smene wh is remembered fr his ability t cmbine humur with mre serius messages is American writer Mark Twain. Twain’s particular style f writing is funny and ften mischievus. Fr example, in his classic nvel The Adventures f Tm Sawyer, he famusly says, “Writing is easy. All yu have t d is crss ut the wrng wrds.” But he is equally well knwn fr his witty remarks in his everyday interactins with peple. Fr instance, while n a lecture tur f the United States, Twain went int a barber’s shp t get a haircut and a shave. The barber, nt recgnising him, asked if he had a ticket t the lecture. When Twain replied that he didn’t, the barber tld him that if he wanted t g t the event he wuld have t stand, as there were n seats left in the theatre. Twain’s respnse was, “That’s just my luck. I always have t stand when that fellw lectures!”
Like Twain, but n the ther side f the wrld, the Chinese writer Wang Zengqi was sn t becme famus fr his wn unique brand f humur. In his essay “On Humur”, Wang used fewer than 600 characters t intrduce several humrus examples f famus peple, cncluding that, “The wrld is full f amusing things. The thught f them wuld always make yu laugh ut lud, even when yu’re just sitting by yurself.”
Wang believed that humur nt nly shws ne’s persnality, but als reflects a persn’s attitude twards life. He himself gives the best example t the wrd “humur”. One day, ne f his readers flattered him by saying, “Gayu is famus fr, first, the pet Qin Shayu, and secnd, Wang Zengqi.” Wang didn’t shw any displeasure but nly gave a gentle respnse, “N. Gayu salted duck eggs are much mre famus than me. I can nly stay in the third place.” On anther ccasin, Wang was invited t give a speech in the US and was scheduled t speak last. He walked t the pdium and began, “Unfrtunately, nne f tday’s speakers have last names starting with X, Y, r Z, s I am the last ne t speak. Speaking last is difficult because everyne is already very tired. But dn’t wrry. My speech will be as shrt as a rabbit’s tail.”
Bth Twain and Wang understd that humur isn’t just abut laughter, but is a way f life and a tl that can be used t illuminate the wrld. Wang nce said, “Life may be like a dream, shrt and uncertain. But I pur my true feelings int it. The wrld gave me its lve first, s I cannt help but lve it back.” Life is never smth sailing and smetimes can be cmplicated and cruel. But humur can help us maintain ur enthusiasm fr life. In fact, sme may argue that ur need fr humur is almst as great as ur need fr water and air. In the wrds f Mark Twain, “Humr is mankind’s greatest blessing”.
31. What did the authrs f ancient jkes knw abut humur?
A. It culd nly make peple laugh.B. It culd explain sensitive issues.

“We regret t infrm yu…” These are the wrds that every writer dreads receiving, but wrds every writer knws well. The respnse frm a publisher cmes back and the writer eagerly pens and reads it, their hearts sinking when they reach that final sentence. Yu may have spent years giving up yur weekends and free time t write yur life’s wrk, yet still this is ften nt enugh. Everyne knws that success rarely happens vernight, but perhaps nt many knw that a lt f highly successful writers have previusly faced rejectin.
Take fr example J.K. Rwling. When she received her first rejectin letter, she decided that it meant she nw had smething in cmmn with her favurite writers, and stuck it n her kitchen wall. Rwling had spent years surviving n little mney, spending all her time writing. When she finally finished her first bk, she received cmments frm publishers alng the lines f “t difficult fr children”, “t lng”, “Children wuld nt be interested in it”. Nevertheless, she persevered. “I wasn’t ging t give up until every single publisher turned me dwn, but I ften feared that wuld happen,” she later psted. After a ttal f twelve rejectins, ne publisher eventually agreed t print 500 cpies f her first bk, and as we knw, Harry Ptter became a glbal success, with ver 400 millin bks sld and translated int mre than seventy different languages.
All t ften writers f great wrks have had t face criticism alng with rejectin. J.D. Salinger started writing shrt stries in high schl, but later struggled t get his wrks published. “We feel that we dn’t knw the central character well enugh” was the criticism he received n his manuscript fr The Catcher in the Rye. Despite rejectins frm several publishers, J.D. Salinger refused t give up. Even when serving in the US Army during the Secnd Wrld War, he carried six chapters f The Catcher in the Rye with him and wrked n the nvel thrughut his war service. When it was eventually published, the bk became an immediate best-seller and went n t sell millins and millins f cpies.
Perhaps the verall prize fr perseverance shuld g t three sisters frm Victrian England wh dreamed f seeing their wrds in print. This, hwever, was a time when wmen were nt encuraged t becme writers. As the then Pet Laureate, Rbert Suthey, wrte t ne f them: “Literature cannt be the business f a wman’s life, and it ught nt t be.” Nevertheless, the sisters didn’t stp trying. Their respnse was t write a bk f pems under male names. Even when the bk sld nly tw cpies, the sisters still didn’t give up. They started writing nvels, and tday Charltte Brntë’s Jane Eyre, Emily Brntë’s Wuthering Heights and Anne Brntë’s Agnes Grey are regarded as classics f wrld literature. In fact, it is within the pages f Jane Eyre that we can find these wrds: “hnur endurance, perseverance, industry, talent; because these are the means by which men achieve great ends...”
S, it seems that talent alne isn’t enugh t guarantee success. While a lt f hard wrk and a tuch f luck play a part, perseverance is the key. Keep trying and eventually yu will read the wrds “We are delighted t infrm yu...”
36. What d writers feel when they receive the sentence “We regret t infrm yu…?”
A. Excited.B. Disappinted.C. Delighted.D. Surprised.
37. Why did J. K. Rwling stick her first rejectin letter n the kitchen wall?
A. T remind herself f her failure.
B. T shw it t her family and friends.
C. T feel she shared smething with her favrite writers.
D. T encurage ther writers nt t give up.
38. What criticism did J. D. Salinger receive n The Catcher in the Rye?
A. It was t lng fr readers.
B. The central character was nt well-develped.
C. It was nt suitable fr yung peple.
D. The writing style was t difficult t understand.
39. Hw did the Brntë sisters deal with the prejudice against wmen writers?
A. They gave up writing and did ther jbs.B. They wrte under male pen names.
C. They asked Rbert Suthey fr help.D. They nly published their wrks abrad.
40. What is the main message f the passage?

“The atmsphere here at Ri de Janeir is electric If China wins this pint, they will walk ut f the stadium with an Olympic gld medal. Zhang Changning serves. Over the net, Ppvic dives f the ball. She nly just reaches it... and it’s sent straight back t her by the Chinese spiker Hui Ruqi. Ppvic can’t get the ball back this time... and that’s it! It’s ver! It’s gld fr China! Lk hw the crwd has gne wild. Yu can see the jy and pride n the faces f the Chinese fans. And there we see the Chinese players embracing, with tears f happiness in their eyes… It’s a dream cme true fr China! The Chinese wmen’s vlleyball team is Olympic champin nce again!”
The Chinese wmen’s vlleyball team hlds a very special place in the natin’s heart. In the 1980s, the team burst nt the internatinal vlleyball scene with several majr wrld titles, and an amazing three-set victry ver the United States in the final f the 1984 Ls Angeles Olympics. They became natinal heres vernight. There was gld nce mre at Athens in 2004. But winning gld in Ri paints the mst vivid prtrait f the team’s cmpetitive spirit.
In Ri, the Chinese wmen’s vlleyball team needed all f its fighting spirit after it was assigned t the “grup f death”, where it faced several strng ppnents in the grup stage matches. Despite reaching the quarter-finals as the furth team in the grup, with just tw wins in preliminary matches, they were nt ging t give up. Every single member f the team gave their all t the fight, including Hui Ruqi wh had had heart surgery less than five mnths previusly.
Their perseverance paid ff with an epic cmeback against the defending champin Brazil in the quarter-finals. Next, the Chinese team defeated the Netherlands in the semi-final matches, having lst t them in the preliminary. At last, shwing a strng will and the steeliest nerves, they played a clse match against Serbia t seize gld in the final.
But fighting spirit alne was nt enugh t guarantee victry. Strng team spirit als cntributed greatly t their success. Cperatin between team members is essential. If each individual des her jb and wrks well with thers, then the end gal can be achieved. In fact, strng ream spirit is mre imprtant than the skills f individual players. Zhu Ting, named Mst Valuable Player at the Ri Olympics, als identified this as the special ingredient in the team’s success: “Teamwrk is the key t China’s victry. Thanks t my teammates’ hard effrts, I had the pprtunity t shw my spiking skills.”
Tgether, the Chinese wmen’s vlleyball team has fught their way thrugh ups and dwns. Led by well-knwn Chinese vlleyball player and cach Lang Ping, they have cntinued t aim high. Lang is nly t aware that as sn as a team steps ff the victry pdium, they need t start frm zer t prepare fr new challenges ahead. In this way, the team begins its jurney t the next Olympics.
