2004年6月学四级考前预测模拟试卷阅读理解中文
It is simple enough to say that since books have classes fiction biographypoetry—we should separate them and take from each what it is right that each should give us Yet few people ask from books what books can give us Most commonly we come to books with blurred and divided minds asking of fiction that it shall be true of poetry that it shall be false of biography that it shall be flattering of history that it shall enforce our own prejudices If we could banish all such preconception when we read that would be an admirable beginning Do not dictate to your author try to become him Be his fellowworker and accompliceIf you hang back and reserve and criticize at first you are preventing yourself from getting the fullest possible value from what you read But if you open your mind as widely as possible then signs and hints of almost imperceptible finess from the twist and turn of the first sentences will bring you into the presence of a human being unlike any other Steep yourself in this acquaint yourself with this and soon you will find that your author is giving you or attempting to give you something far more definite

How significant can one’s life be Is there a criterion which we can use to judge it Of course it is difficult to come up with an absolute criterion However if we generally look at whether he is serious about life and how he treats his work and life it will not be difficult to make a proper judgment about the significance of his existence Throughout history all the people with great achievements treated their lives seriously While they were alive they always tried to do more work and studyand never dreamed away their lives nor wasted their time The same is true of the Chinese working people through the ages as well as the great politicians and thinkers

I met my father near Cooper Union I recognized him a hunched frozen figure in an old overcoat standing by a banana cart He looked so lonely the tears came to my eyes Then he saw me and his face lit with his sad beautiful smile Charlie Chaplin＇s smile
Arch it＇s Mikey he said So you have sold your papers Come and eat a banana
He offered me one I refused it I felt it crucial that my father sell his bananas not give them away He thought I was shy and coaxed and joked with me and made me eat the banana It smelled of wet straw and snow
You haven＇t sold many bananas today pop I said anxiously
He shrugged his shoulders
What can I do No one seems to want them
It was true The work crowds pushed home morosely over the pavements The rusty sky darkened over New York building the tall street lamps were lit innumerable trucks street cars and elevated trains clattered by Nobody and nothing in the great city stopped for my father＇s bananas

I had eaten one of his bananas My sick conscience told me that I ought to pay for it somehow I must remain here and help my father
I＇ll yell for you pop I volunteered
Arch no he said go home you have worked enough today Just tell momma I＇ll be late
But I yelled and yelled My father standing by spoke occasional words of praise and said I was a wonderful yeller Nobody else paid attention The workers drifted past us wearily endlessly a defeated army wrapped in dreams of home Elevated trains crashed the Cooper Union clock burned above us the sky grew black the wind poured the slush burned through our shoes There were thousands of strange silent figures pouring over the sidewalks in snow None of them stopped to buy bananas I yelled and yelled nobody listened
My father tried to stop me at last Nu he said smiling to console me that was wonderful yelling Mikey But it＇s plain we are unlucky today Let＇s go home
I was frantic and almost in tears I insisted on keeping up my desperate yells But at last my father persuaded me to leave with him

2004年6月学四级考前预测模拟试卷阅读理解中文
It is simple enough to say that since books have classes fiction biographypoetry—we should separate them and take from each what it is right that each should give us Yet few people ask from books what books can give us Most commonly we come to books with blurred and divided minds asking of fiction that it shall be true of poetry that it shall be false of biography that it shall be flattering of history that it shall enforce our own prejudices If we could banish all such preconception when we read that would be an admirable beginning Do not dictate to your author try to become him Be his fellowworker and accompliceIf you hang back and reserve and criticize at first you are preventing yourself from getting the fullest possible value from what you read But if you open your mind as widely as possible then signs and hints of almost imperceptible finess from the twist and turn of the first sentences will bring you into the presence of a human being unlike any other Steep yourself in this acquaint yourself with this and soon you will find that your author is giving you or attempting to give you something far more definite

How significant can one’s life be Is there a criterion which we can use to judge it Of course it is difficult to come up with an absolute criterion However if we generally look at whether he is serious about life and how he treats his work and life it will not be difficult to make a proper judgment about the significance of his existence Throughout history all the people with great achievements treated their lives seriously While they were alive they always tried to do more work and studyand never dreamed away their lives nor wasted their time The same is true of the Chinese working people through the ages as well as the great politicians and thinkers
