I was born at Blunderstone, in Suffolk, in the east of England, and was given my poor father’s name, David Copperfield. Sadly, he never saw me and died six months before I was born. My early childhood was extremely happy, as my beautiful mother and kind Peggotty took care of me. But when I was about eight, a shadow passed over my happiness. My mother often went out walking, in her best clothes, with a gentleman called Mr Murdstone. He seemed to be very fond of my mother. But I knew that Peggotty did not like him.
A few months later Peggotty told me that my mother was going to have a short holiday with some friends. Meanwhile Peggotty and I would go to stay with her brother Daniel in Yarmouth,on the east coast, for two weeks. I spent a wonderfully happy two weeks there, playing all day on the beach with Emily, and sleeping in my own little bed on the ship. I am sure I was in love with little Emily in my childish way, and I cried bitterly when we had to say goodbye at the end of the holiday.
But on the way home to Blunderstone, Peggotty looked at me very worriedly. ‘she said suddenly in a trembling voice.‘I must tell you—While we’ve been away, your dear mother—has married Mr Murdstone!He’s your stepfather now!’
I was deeply shocked. I could not understand how my mother could have married that man. And when we arrived home, I went straight to my room and lay sobbing on my bed, which made my poor mother very unhappy too. As she sat beside me, holding my hand, Mr Murdstone suddenly came in.
What’s this, Chara, my love?’ he asked sternly. ‘Remember, you must be firm with the boy!I’ve told you before, you’re too weak with him!’ And when mother left the room, Mr Murdstone whispered angrily to me, ‘David, do you know what I’ll do if you don’t obey me?I’ll beat you like a dog!’ I was still very young, and I was very frightened of him. If he had said one kind word to me, perhaps I would have liked and trusted him, and my life would have been different. Instead, I hated him for the influence he had over my dear mother, who wanted to be kind to me, but also wanted to please her new husband.

The 2016 Rio Olympic Games have come to an end. Without doubt, many Chinese sports fans sat in front of the TV and cheered our athletes on, hoping that they would get as many gold medals as possible.
But sometimes our desire for gold medals can result in the sadness of failure. When Liu Xiang, China’s track hero, pulled out of the Beijing Olympics due to injury, he greatly disappointed many Chinese sports fans.
But things are different now. In the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, we saw a healthier and more lenient Chinese attitude toward the sportspeople, fully in line with the Olympic spirit.
China didn’t win any gold medals on the first day. But, instead of criticizing the athletes who failed to finish on top of the podium(領獎臺), the majority of fans were happy with their efforts. “Reacting in the right way when an athlete misses out on gold shows the maturity of a person, and is also a challenge for a country to face up to in the process of development,” commented CRI.
Swimmer Fu Yuanhui won fans’ hearts, even if she only won a bronze medal in the 100m backstroke final. Her fans on her Sina Weibo micro blog have increased 100,000 to over 6 million. Many sports fans appreciated her straightforward character and attitude toward competition.
“The warm support from Internet users shows that public attitude toward competitive sport and the Olympics have gotten to a higher level,” said an article in the People’s Daily.
1.From passage 2, what can we know about Liu Xiang?
A. He is still a famous athlete.
B. He didn’t complete his event in the Beijing Olympics.
C. The audience desired him little.
D. He was required to give up the competition.
2.What does the underlined word “l(fā)enient” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. unhappy B. serious
C. complaining D. tolerant
3.People like Fu Yuanhui because of her ________.
A. kindness to the fans
B. winning a bronze medal
C. attitude to competition
D. Weibo mirco blog
4.What does the author mainly want to tell us in this passage?
A. Learning how to face up to challenge.
B. Winning gold medals is important.
C. Changing attitude to athletes is a must.
D. Getting as many gold medals as possible.

[選修1:歷史上重大改革回眸](15分)
材料 1978年底,安徽省鳳陽縣小崗村18戶農民為擺脫貧困,暗中自發(fā)將集體耕地包干到戶。1979年2月,中共安徽省委召開會議,決定在肥西縣山南公社進行包產到戶試點,指出:許多干部一講到包產到戶,就心有余悸,可以說談“包”色變,但農民普遍希望包產到戶,這是矛盾,必須要在實踐中加以檢驗。會議強調試點不宣傳、不報道、不推廣。1979年9月,中共中央下發(fā)文件,認為因某些副業(yè)生產的特殊需要和邊遠山區(qū)、交通不便的單家獨戶可以實行包產到戶,一般不加以提倡。1980年9月,中央下發(fā)《關于進一步加強和完善農業(yè)生產責任制的幾個問題》,指出:“在生產隊領導下實行的包產到戶是依存于社會主義經(jīng)濟,而不會脫離社會主義軌道的,沒有什么復辟資本主義的危險。”1982年9月,中共“十二大”對以包產到戶為主要形式的農業(yè)生產責任制改革予以肯定,包產到戶在農村迅速推廣。1980年11月,全國農村實行包產到戶的生產隊為15%;到1983年初,這一比例達到93%。
——摘編自胡繩主編《中國共產黨的七十年》等

Today’s workplace is unique in history. Never before have we seen people working together who represent such different backgrounds and experiences. This difference of age, race, gender, and work style makes it very difficult to organize and run a company.
As a result, companies are looking for individuals who can manage a wide range of employees effectively. Increasingly, managers are discovering that age differences among workers are a major cause of concern.
This has been an important realization. The management difficulties and challenges have led some experts to study intergenerational differences for an understanding of problems in the workplace. What they have discovered is interesting and may provide ways of improving working conditions in companies that employ individuals from different generations.
The first thing to realize, they say, is that differences of opinion about the importance of work and how to get work done are not a coincidence. That is, it is not an accident that young employees will be different from older employees. In fact, if employers do not pay attention to these differences, it is possible that anger will build up between people and lead to difficulties in the company.
Resentment (仇恨) between members of different generations, if not attended to, can lead to extreme anger and unhappiness and even lasting enmity if people are not careful. That individuals from different generations should come to view each other as if they were from different sides of warring countries should not be surprising.
It is natural for individuals from the same generation to form alliances (聯(lián)盟), to come together for protection. Different generations represent different experiences in life, and these lead naturally to different opinions about oneself and one’s approaches to work.
If you were raised in a time of plenty, when products were readily available and relatively inexpensive, you would believe that prosperity is natural and expectable. If, on the other hand, you were raised in a time of scarcity, you would always be careful not to waste things for fear you would not have enough. You would make angry people who seem to believe that problems will always solve themselves. Such optimism in the face of difficulties would be a source of unhappiness between you and them. It is difficult, in such circumstances, to achieve a happy, agreeable atmosphere in the workplace.
1.According to the experts, employers should realize ______ if they want to avoid anger between employees.
A. the different understanding of problems in the workplace
B. the different views on value of work and working methods
C. the different genders of employees in the workplace
D. the different ways of expressing anger in the company
2.The word “enmity” is closet in meaning to ______.
A. hatred B. sorrows
C. ignorance D. forgiveness
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Employees in some companies regard each other as mere enemies.
B. Employees’ attitudes towards life are related to the time when they grow up.
C. Employees who are raised in a time of scarcity tend to be angry with others.
D. Achieving a harmonious atmosphere in the workplace is the main task for employers.
4.What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage?
A. Employees should be cooperative and friendly with each other.
B. It is difficult for employers to have workers work in a friendly way.
C. The weakness of human nature causes the anger between employees.
D. The generational differences cause the disharmony among employees.
