A single angry word has lost many a friend. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad.” “Keep cool,” says George Herbert, “for fierceness makes error a fault.”
To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong your self. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “bring with folly and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.
Self-control is man’s last greatest victory.
If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no self-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also.
小题1:What does the reader learn from the first paragraph ?
The greatest victory for a man is to conquer everything except himself.
One’s moral freedom is based on the control of himself.
To control oneself is the most difficult in one’s life.
If a person is too stubborn, he will feel most shameful.
小题2:What is the correct interpretation of “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad”?
If the gods want to kill you, they make you crazy first.
If you always lose your temper, you will soon be finished.
If you cannot control yourself, you will become crazy.
If you are mad, you will be punished by the gods.
小题3:If a man lacks self-control, he lacks all of the following EXCEPT _________.
the very backbone and nerve of character

小题3:C
小题4:A
解析
小题1:细节理解题。从Let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral (道德的) freedom. 可以看出“一个人道德上的自由是建立在自我控制的基础上的”。其他选项没有很好的把握本段的大意。
小题2:段落大意理解题。文章的第二段主要论述了“生气”、“发脾气”给一个人身体造成的危害,例子中可以看出严重的甚至会带来死亡。其他各项都是作者所列举的例子,不能概括本段大意。
小题3:细节理解题。文章最后一段介绍了“如果一个人失去了自失,那么他将失去一切,包括耐心、自信、甚至骨气。而一个人的自控意识是受自己强烈的感情控制的。”其他各项都符合文章的表述。
小题4:主旨归纳题。纵观全文作者写这篇文章的主要目的就是要向读者解释一个问题:自控很重要,它是通向成功的钥匙。其他三项不能概括全文的大意。

Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced in the meantime. A man who has not dad an opportunity to go swimming for years can 1 swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after several decades and still 2 away. A mother who has not 3 the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or recite the story of Cinderella or Snow White.
One explanation is the law of over learning, which can be started as following: 4 we have learned something, additional learning increases the 5 of time we will remember it.
In childhood, we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and 6 ourselves of poems such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White. We not only learn but 7 .
The law of over learning explains why cramming(突击学习) for an examination, 8 it may result in a passing grade, is not a 9 way to learn a school course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little over learning, 10 , is usually a good investment toward the future.

If you walk through the streets of any big city at six or seven in the morning, the chances are that you will see women hurrying along, pushing prams (婴儿推车). You may see more than one woman 1 on the same door and, as it opens, quickly kiss the child, 2 a package of nappies and hurry off down the street to clock on the early shift in an office, leaving their children to a child – minder – a woman who may be doing the job legally or illegally, well or badly. Brain Jackson, director of the Child – minding Researching Unit, and his colleagues have done a great deal of work in finding out 3 it means for a child to spend the first years of life in the care of a child – minder.
4 law, anyone who looks after a child for more than two hours a day and gets paid must be registered. 5 the punishment is a 6 pounds fine. Local authorities are responsible for the registration and supervision (监管) of minders. The regulations 6 adequate provision (保障) for fire, safety and health. Very few minders can 7 these. Yet, not many districts give financial assistance. “This means,” Brain Jackson says, “that when you have one registered minder tested and proved by the local authorities, you can be sure that you will get a dozen unregistered, illegal minders 8 .”
The researchers found themselves 9 into the role of private investigators when they conduct their 10 . Getting up early to do a “Dawn Watch” following mothers through cold, dark streets and nothing where they left their babies, Jackson says, was a long, slow process.

The United States has more than 17000,000 students in higher education. Each year, 1700 of them die from alcohol-related road crashes and other injuries. 600,000 more are injured while under the influence of alcohol. And almost 700,000 are attacked by another drunken.
One behavior that college officials are trying to prevent is too much drinking. Some researchers have found that students who think binge drinking is normal often think extremely how much other students really drink. A person can die of alcohol poisoning. At Oklahoma University, a nineteen-year-old student died from drinking heavily at a party in 2005
Now alcohol is banned from all sorority houses and university housing. Student organizations can serve alcohol at events but only on Friday and Saturday nights. Other new requirements include an alcohol education program that first-year students take online.
The rules govern behavior on campus (校园) and off. With a first violation(违犯), students pay seventy-five dollars and their parents are told. They must also take an alcohol education class. For a second "strike," they have to pay one hundred fifty dollars. A third strike means that they have to be suspended school for at least one semester.
Since 2005, 363 students have had a first strike. 30 have had a second strike -- and only one hasn’t allowed to go to school for one semester. The president at Oklahoma tells us the aim is not just to punish but to change behavior and the culture at the university.

A.the legal age at the lowest for drinking alcohol is 21 |
B.many colleges consider drinking alcohol to be a crime |
C.drinking alcohol is a necessary and popular campus culture |

A.17000,000 | B.1,301,700 | C.601,700 | D.1300,000 |
A.have to stop going to school for a time | B.be removed to another school |
C.be locked at home for a period | D.be forced to leave school forever |
A.College students are not allowed to drink alcohol at any time.. |
B.If students take an alcohol program online, they can drink alcohol . |
C.Students having a first strike only receive punishment of fine |
D.Students with a second strike pay twice as much as students with a first strike |
