The government has ______ its refusal to compromise with terrorists.A. retoldB. redeemedC. reactedD. reiteratedRead the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items ll , lll, IV.World's Rich Nations Miss a GoldenOpportunity to Back Fair Trade(1) Perhaps the defining moment of Tony Blair's premiership was the speech that he gave to the Labour Party conference in October 2001. In June his party had returned to office with a huge majority. In September two planes were flown into the World Trade Centre in New York. The speech appeared to mark his transition from the insecure prime minister to a visionary and a statesman, determined to change the world. The most memorable passage was his declaration on Africa. "The state of Africa", he told us, "is a scar on the conscience of the world. But if the world as a community focused on it, we could heal it. And if we don't, it will become deeper and angrier."(2) This being so, I would like to ask Britain's visionary prime minister to explain what he thinks he was doing at the G8 summit in France. A few weeks ago President Jacques Chirac did something unprecedented. After years of opposing any changes to European farm subsidies（补贴）, he approached the US government to suggest that Europe would stop subsidising its exports of food to Africa if America did the same.(3) His offer was significant, not only because it represented a major policy reversal for France, but also because it provided an opportunity to abandon the perpetual agricultural arms race between the European Union and the US, in which each side seeks to offer more subsidies than the other. The West's farm subsidies, as Blair has pointed out, are a disaster for the developing world, and particularly for Africa.(4) Farming accounts for some 70% of employment on that continent, and most of the farmers there are desperately poor. Part of the reason is that they are unfairly undercut by the subsidised products dumped on their markets by exporters from the US and the EU. Chirac' s proposals addressed only part of the problem, but theycould have begun the process of dismantling the system that does so much harm to the West's environment and the lives of some of the world's most vulnerable people.(5) We might, then, have expected Blair to have welcomed Chirac's initiative. Instead the prime minister has single-handedly destroyed it. The reason will by now be familiar. George Bush, who receives substantial political support from US agro-industrialists, grain exporters and pesticide manufacturers, was not prepared to make the concessions required to match Chirac's offer. If the EU, and in particular the UK, had supported France, the moral pressure on Bush might have been irresistible. But as soon as Blair made it clear that he would not support Chirac's plan, the initiative was dead.(6) So, thanks to Mr Blair and his habit of doing whatever Bush tells him to, Africa will continue to suffer. Several of the food crises from which that continent is now suffering are made worse by the plight of its own farmers. The underlying problem is that the rich nations set the global trade rules. The current world trade agreement was supposed to have prevented the EU and the US from subsidising their exports to developing nations. But, as the development agency Oxfam has shown, the agreement contains so many loopholes that it permits the two big players simply to call their export subsidies by a different name.(7) So, for example, the EU has, in several farm sectors, stopped paying farmers according to the amount they produce and started instead to give them direct grants, based on the amount of land they own and how much they produced there in the past. The US has applied the2013年1月全国高等教育自学考试高级英语真题(四)2013-03-11 14:24:07 来源: 作者: 【大中小】浏览:1745次评论:0条me formula, and added a couple of tricks of its own. One of these is called "export credit": the state reduces the cost of US exports by providing cheap insurance for the exporters. These credits, against which Chirac was hoping to trade the European subsidies, are worth some 7.7bn to US grain sellers. In combination with other tricks, they ensure that American exporters can undercut the world price for wheat and maize by between 10% and 16%, and the world price for cotton by 40%. But the ugliest of its hidden export subsidies is its use of aid as a means of penetrating the markets of poorer nations.While the other major donors give money, which the World Food Programme can use to buy supplies in local markets, thus helping farmers while feeding the starving, the US insists on sending its own produce, stating that this programme is "designed to develop . " and expand commercial outlets for US products".(8) The result is that the major recipients are not the nations in greatest need, but the nations that can again in the words of the US department of agriculture,. "demonstrate the potential to become commercial markets" for US farm products. This is why, for example, the Philippines currently receives more US food aid than Mozambique, Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe put together, all of which, unlike the Philippines, are currently suffering from serious food shortages.(9) But US policy also ensures that food aid is delivered just when it is needed least. Oxfam has produced a graph plotting the amount of wheat given to developing nations by the US against world prices. When the price falls the volume of "aid" rises. This is as clear a demonstration of agricultural dumping as you could ask for. The very programme that is meant to help the poor is in fact undermining them.(10) So, when faced with a choice between saving Africa and saving George Bush from a mild diplomatic embarrassment, Blair has, as we could have predicted,done as his master bids. The scar on the conscience of the world has just become deeper and angrier.II. In this section, there are ten incomplete statements or questions, followed by four choices marked A, B, C and D.

What does “Innisfree”refer to?2. What is the central idea of this short poem?(2)Who’d stoop to blameThis sort of trifling? Even had you skillIn speech—(which I have not)—to make your willQuite clear to such an one, and say, “Just thisOr that in you disgusts me; here you miss,Or there exceed the mark”—and if she letHerself be lessoned so, nor plainly setHer wits to yours, forsooth, and made excuse—E’en then would be some stooping; and I chooseNever to stoop. Oh sir, she smiled, no doubt,Whene’er I passed her; but who passed without5Much the same smile? This grew; I gave commands;Then all smiles stopped together. There she standsAs if alive. Will’t please you rise? We’ll meetThe company below, then. I repeat,The Count your master’s known munificenceIs ample warrant that no just pretenceOf mine for dowry will be disallowed;Though his fair daughter’s self, as I avowedAt starting, is my object. Nay, we’ll goTogether down, sir. Notice Neptune, though,Taming a sea horse, though a rarity,Which Claus of Innsbruck cast in bronze for me!3. What is dramatic monologue?

What kind of person is he?(3)“I grieve to leave Thornfield: I love Thornfield:—I love it, because I have lived in it a full and delightful life,—momentarily at least. I have not been trampled on. I have not been petrified.I have not been buried with inferior minds, and excluded from every glimpse of communion with what is bright, and energetic, and high. I have talked, face to face, with what I reverence: with what I delight in—with an original, a vigorous, an expanded mind. I have known you, Mr. Rochester; and it strikes me with terror and anguish to feel I absolutely must be torn from you for ever. I see the necessity of departure; and it is like looking on the necessity of death.”“Where do you see the necessity?”he asked, suddenly.“Where? You, sir, have placed it before me.”“In what shape?”“In the shape of Miss Ingram; a noble and beautiful woman—your bride.”“My bride! What bride? I have no bride!”“But you will have.”“Yes;—I will! —I will!”He set his teeth.“Then I must go:—you have said it yourself.”“No: you must stay! I swear it—and the oath shall be kept.”“I tell you I must go!”I retorted, roused to something like passion. “Do you think I can6stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?—a machine without feelings? And can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!—I have as much soul as you—and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, or even of mortal flesh:—it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God’s feet, equal—as we are!”5. What does Jane Eyre want to declare with her revolting against Mr. Rochester?Part V. Give brief answers to the following questions(15%).1. Sum up the characteristics of George Eliot’s literary works.2. What are the essential characteristics of modernism?7。

I. Supply the missing paragraph (20 points)The following passage is incomplete with one paragraph missing. Study the following passage caref ully and write a paragraph of about 100 words. Make sure that the tone and vocabulary you use are in unity with the passage provided.Parents Are Not Always the Best TeachersThroughout my life, I have been lucky enough to have a very good relationship with my parents. The y have supported me, given me necessary criticism, and taught me a great deal about how to live my lif e. Parents can be very important teachers in our life; however, they are not always the best teachers.Parents may be too close to their children emotionally. Sometimes they can only see theirchildren through the eyes of a protector. For example, they may limit their children’s freedom in the na me of safety. A teacher might see a trip to a big city as a valuable new experience. However, it might seem too dangerous to a parent.Another problem is that parents may expect their children’s interests to be similar to their own. They c annot seem to separate from their children in their mind. If they love science, they may try to force their children to love science, too. But what if their children’s true love is art, or writing, or even car repair?The most important thing to realize is that we all have many teachers in our life. Our parents teach us, our teachers teach us, and our peers teach us. Books and newspapers and television also teach us. All of them are valuable.Ⅱ. Write an outline (20 points)Read the following passage carefully and compose a TOPIC OUTLINE for itEveryone Is Talking, and No One Is ListeningSince the middle of the 1990s, the ability to communicate electronically has expanded dramatically. Elect ronic communication is changing how people relate to one another. However, one thing remains constant: these new forms of communication are not face to face. They are distant, and they keep people at a di stance. In my opinion, due to electronic communication, relationships today are changing for the worse; t hey have become fragmented, superficial, and anonymous.Communication these days is becoming a process of exchanging messages of two or three words. There is no longer time for serious and deep reflection. For example, in most countries, sending a text messag e via a cell phone is much cheaper than talking on that phone, so people send each other silly messages like “RU ready?” or “4 sure. ” The language of Shakespeare and Milton has become reduced to abb revi ations. With Instant Messenger(IM), people send each other emoticons such as a smiley face instead of s entences. In addition, since Instant Messenger depends on who has the fastest connection, there cannot be real communication. There is no give-and-take. These fragmented messages are not true communication.The current ability to relate to one another electronically is largely textual; that is, peopleread messages from each other. Blogs, or Web logs, have become the way to communicate. However, a nyone, anywhere can create a blog, and they can write anything they want. There are millions of blogs being produced. It seems that everyone wants to shout, “Hey, here I am ! This i s me!”, but no o ne really listens. No one responds. Another reason why relationships are becoming more superficial is the spread of e-mail. Because they are overwhelmed by spam in addition to real messages, people just skim what they see and either make a rapid, thoughtless response or ignore it completely. No one reads e-ma il messages carefully because there are just too many of them.Finally, while one great advantage of the World Wide Web is that it is anonymous, this isalso its major disadvantage. Anyone can pretend to be anyone. For example, a sixteen-year-oldhigh school student could say that he is a twenty-three-year-old college graduate, and the person reading his blog or profile would never know. This type of anonymity can also put internet users at risk. There are many news stories about a criminal convincing a teenager to meet him at a coffee shop or a mall. T he teenager agrees to meet her internet friend because she thinks she is meeting another teenager. The W eb knows no one; a person can inv ent an identity. It’s clear that there can be no real communication wh en it’s so easy for someone to remain anonymous.In short, electronic communication has multiple advantages, but it also has disadvantages. This new for m of communication makes people lonelier because they don’t make real and meaningful connections. Th e communication; is fragmented and superficial, and it is not always honest because of the ability to beanonymous. Fewer silly messages and more face-to-face communication would make us better people, I t hink..Ⅲ.

He looked like the sort of young man who might kill a president.（2）He was glaring because we had passed him and for that offensive action he pursued us to the next stoplight so as to express his indignation and affirm his masculinity.I was with two women and was afraid for all three of us.It was nearly midnight and we were in a small,sleeping town with no other cars on the road.（3）When the light turned green I raced ahead.He didn’t merely follow,he chased and with his headlights turned off.No matter what sudden turn I took,he followed.My passengers were silent.I knew they were alarmed,and I prayed that I wouldn’t be called upon to protect them.In that cheerful frame of mind,I turned off my own lights so I couldn’t be followed.It was madness.I was responding to a crazy as a crazy.（4）“I’ll just drive to the police station,”I finally said,and as if those were the magic words,he disappeared.（5）It seems to me that there has recently been an epidemic of auto macho—a competition perceived and expressed in driving.People fight it out over parking spaces.A toll booth becomes a signal for elbowing fenders.And beetle-eyed drivers hunch over their steering wheels,squeezing the rims,glowering,preparing the excuse of not having seen you as they muscle you off the road.Approaching a highway on an entrance ramp recently,I was strong-armed by a trailer truck so immense that its driver all but blew me away by blasting his horn.The behemoth was just inches from my hopelessly mismatched vehicle when I fled for the safety of the shoulder.（6）The odd thing is that long before I was even able to drive,it seemed to me that people were at their finest and most civilized when in their cars.They seemed so orderly and considerate,so reasonable,staying in the right-hand lane unless passing,signaling all intentions.In those days you really eased into highway traffic,and the long,neat rows of cars seemed mobile testimony to the sanity of most people.Perhaps memory fails,perhaps there were always testy drivers,perhaps—but everyone didn’t give you the finger.（7）A most amazing example of driver rage occurred recently in Manhattan.We were four cars abreast,stopped at a traffic light.And there was no moving even when the light had changed.A bus had stopped in the cross traffic,blocking our paths: it was normal-for-New-York-City gridlock.Perhaps impatient,perhaps late for important appointments,three of us nonetheless accepted what,after all,we could not alter.One,however,would not.He would not be helpless.He would go where he was going even if he couldn’t get there.He got out of his car and strode toward the bus,rapping smartly on its doors.When they opened,he exchanged words with the driver.The doors folded shut.He then stepped in front of the bus, took hold of one of its large windshield wipers and broke it.（8）The bus doors reopened and the driver appeared,apparently giving the fellow a good piece of his mind.If so,the lecture was wasted,for the man started his car and drove directly into the bus.He rammed it.Even though the point at which he struck the bus,the folding doors,was its most vulnerable point,ramming the side of a bus with your car has to rank very high on a futility index.My first thought was that it had to be a rental car.（9）To tell the truth,I could not believe my eyes.The bus driver opened his doors as much as they could be opened and he stepped directly onto the hood of the attacking car,jumping up and down with both his feet.He then retreated into the bus, closing the doors behind him.Obviously a man of action,the car driver backed up and rammed the bus again.（10）It is tempting to blame such aggressive,uncivil and even neurotic behavior,but in our cars we all become a little crazy.How many of us speed up when a driver signals his intention of pulling in front of us?Are we resentful and anxious to pass him?How many of us try to squeeze in,or race along the shoulder at a lane merger?（11）What is it within us that gives birth to such antisocial behavior and why,all of a sudden,have so many drivers gone around the bend?My friend,a Manhattan psychiatrist,calls it“a Rambo pattern.People are running around thinking the American way is to take the law into your own hands when anyone does anything wrong.And what constitutes‘wrong’? Anything that cramps your style.”（12）It seems to me that it is a new America we see on the road now.It has the mentality of a hoodlum and the backboneof a coward.The car is its weapon and hiding place,and it is still a symbol even in this.Road Rambos no longer represent a self-reliant,civil people tooling around in family cruisers.In fact,there aren’t families in these machines that charge headlong with their brights on in broad daylight,demanding we get out of their way.Bullies are loners,and they have perverted our liberty of the open road into drivers’license.They represent an America that derides the values of decency and good manners,then roam the highways riding shotgun and shrieking freedom.By allowing this to happen,the rest of us approve.Ⅱ．In this section,there are ten incomplete statements or questions，followed by four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet.(20points,2points for each)16．The first four paragraphs serve as______.A．an introduction of the essayB．a summary of what will happenC．a comment on today’s drivers’behaviorD．the author’s personal feelings a out driving17．The word“behemoth”in Paragraph5means something______.A．very large B．extremely expensiveC．quite advanced D．unusually attractive18．The phrase“give you the finger”in Paragraph6means______.A．let you see the finger B．intend to shake hands with youC．show their admiration for you D．express anger to you in a rude way19．The car driver broke one of the windshield wipers______.A．to test its qualityB．to show his rageC．to demonstrate his powerD．to demand the bus driver to reverse20．According to Paragraph8,the car driver rammed the bus in vain because______.A．the car was rentedB．the car was not as strong as the busC．the bus driver refused to make way for himD．the folding doors of the bus were the strongest part21．The author felt that the bus driver’s behavior in Paragraph9was______．A．disgusting B．confusingC．acceptable D．incredible22．The questions in Paragraph10intend to show that______.A．no one is excused for dangerous drivingB．every driver is required to obey traffic rulesC．drivers’bad behavior is a common phenomenonD．aggressive behavior on the road should be blamed23．What is the author’s attitude towards the“Rambo pattern”in Paragraph11?A．Skeptical.B．Critical.C．Supportive.D．Indifferent.24．The word“cramps”in Paragraph11means______．A．limits B．createsC．displays D．renovates25．The purpose of the author in writing this essay is______.A．to arouse people’s awareness of safe drivingB．to make people believe that driving is dangerousC．to criticize the drivers’violent behavior on the roadD．to inform readers about some unusual traffic accidents非选择题部分注意事项：用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔将答案写在答题纸上，不能答在试题卷上。

In June his party had returned to office with a huge majority. In September two planes were flown into the World Trade Centre in New York. The speech appeared to mark his transition from the insecure prime minister to a visionary and a statesman,determined to change the world. The most memorable passage was his declaration on Africa. "The state of Africa", he told us, "is a scar on the conscience of the world. But if the world as a community focused on it, we could heal it. And if we don't, it will become deeper and angrier."(2) This being so, I would like to ask Britain's visionary prime minister to explain what he thinks he was doing at the G8 summit in France. A few weeks ago President Jacques Chirac did something unprecedented. After years of opposing any changes to European farm subsidies（补贴）, he approached the US government to suggest that Europe would stop subsidising its exports of food to Africa if America did the same.(3) His offer was significant, not only because it represented a major policy reversal for France, but also because it provided an opportunity to abandon the perpetual agricultural arms race between the European Union and the US, in which each side seeks to offer more subsidies than the other. The West's farm subsidies, as Blair has pointed out, are a disaster for the developing world, and particularly for Africa.(4) Farming accounts for some 70% of employment on that continent, and most of the farmers there are desperately poor. Part of the reason is that they are unfairly undercut by the subsidised products dumped on their markets by exporters from the US and the EU. Chirac' s proposals addressed only part of the problem, but they could have begun the process of dismantling the system that does so much harm to the West's environment and the lives of some of the world's most vulnerable people.(5) We might, then, have expected Blair to have welcomed Chirac's initiative. Instead the prime minister has single-handedly destroyed it. The reason will by now be familiar. George Bush, who receives substantial political support from US agro-industrialists, grain exporters and pesticide manufacturers, was not prepared to make the concessions required to match Chirac's offer. If the EU, and in particular the UK, had supported France, the moral pressure on Bush might have been irresistible. But as soon as Blair made it clear that he would not support Chirac's plan, the initiative was dead.(6) So, thanks to Mr Blair and his habit of doing whatever Bush tells him to, Africa will continue to suffer. Several of the food crises from which that continent is now suffering are made worse by the plight of its own farmers. The underlying problem is that the rich nations set the global trade rules. The current world trade agreement was supposed to have prevented the EU and the US from subsidising their exports to developing nations. But, as the development agency Oxfam has shown, the agreement contains so many loopholes that it permits the two big players simply to call their export subsidies by a different name.(7) So, for example, the EU has, in several farm sectors, stopped paying farmers according to the amount they produce and started instead to give them direct grants, based on the amount of land they own and how much they produced there in the past. The US has applied the same formula, and added a couple of tricks of its own. One of these is called "export credit": the state reduces the cost of US exports by providing cheap insurance for the exporters. These credits, against which Chirac was hoping to trade the European subsidies, are worth some $'7.7bn to US grain sellers.In combination with other tricks, they ensure that American exporters can undercut the world price for wheat and maize by between 10% and 16%, and the world price for cotton by 40%.But the ugliest of its hidden export subsidies is its use of aid as a means of penetrating the markets of poorer nations. While the other major donors give money, which the World Food Programme can use to buy supplies in local markets, thus helping farmers while feeding the starving, the US insists on sending its own produce, stating that this programme is "designed to develop . " and expand commercial outlets for US products".(8) The result is that the major recipients are not the nations in greatest need, but the nations that can again in the words of the US department of agriculture,. "demonstrate the potential to become commercial markets" for US farm products. This is why, for example, the Philippines currently receives more US food aid than Mozambique, Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe put together, all of which, unlike the Philippines, are currently suffering from serious food shortages.(9) But US policy also ensures that food aid is delivered just when it is needed least. Oxfam has produced a graph plotting the amount of wheat given to developing nations by the US against world prices. When the price falls the volume of "aid" rises. This is as clear a demonstration of agricultural dumping as you could ask for. The very programme that is meant to help the poor is in fact undermining them.(10) So, when faced with a choice between saving Africa and saving George Bush from a mild diplomatic embarrassment, Blair has, as we could have predicted, done as his master bids. The scar on the conscience of the world has just become deeper and angrier.II. In this section, there are ten incomplete statements or questions, followed by four choices marked A, B, C and D.

For this reason, the international community has committed itself to getting all the world’s children into primary school by 2015, a commitment known as Education for All. Can Education for All be achieved by 2015? The answer is definitely”yes” , although it is a difficult task. If we now measure the goal in terms of children successfully completing a minimum of five years of primary school, instead of just enrolling for classes, which used to be the measuring stick for education, the challenge will become even more difficult. Only 32 countries were formerly believed to be at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of enrollment rates. The number rises to 88 if completion rates are used as the standard. Still, the goal is achievable with the right policies and the right support from the international community. 59 of the 88 countries at risk can reach universal primary completion by 2015 if they bring the efficiency and quality of their education systems into line with standards observed in higher-performing systems. They also need significant increases in external(外部的)financing and technical support. The 29 countries lagging(落后)farthest behind will not reach the goal without unprecedented(空前的)rates of progress. But this is attainable with creative solutions, including the use of information technologies, flexible and targeted foreign aid, and fewer people living in poverty. A key lesson of experience about what makes development effective is that a country’s capacity to use aid well depends heavily on its policies, institutions and management. Where a country scores well on these standards, foreign assistance can be highly effective.1．It can be inferred from the passage that a quality education has the function of______.A．helping a country free from foreign ruleB．making people become wealthyC．giving people more power and freedomD．speeding up the progress of society正确答案：B解析：推断题。

Elizabeth is the hero of this film, who always did something following her own mind. If she didn’t like something or somebody, she would say it, which is appreciated by all of us. However, maybe just because of her characteristics she had a deep prejudice about Mr. Darcy. She had her own mind, but couldn’t think about whether what she wa s told was right or wrong, which is also her deficiency. Miss. Elizabeth wanted to find her true love and also believed the existence of it. So when she found her stupid behavior, she regretted and tried to preserve Mr. Darcy’s love.From the book I feel the beauty of love and marriage. Sometimes we should think of what we have done and are going to do, which will lessen the mistakes we made. If we want to know and understand the quality of a person, we shouldn’t judge a book from its cover or even the c omments on him from other people, but what he has done in his daily life.172.please give your own comment on RomanticismThe most characteristic features of the works of the romanticism are: (1) their own aspiration and ideals are in sharp contrast to the common, sordid daily life under capitalism; (2) their writing are filled withstrong-willed heroes or even titanic images, formidable events and tragic situations, powerful conflicting passions and exotic pictures. Sometimes they restored to symbolic methods, with active romanticists, symbolic pictures represent a vague idea of some future society, while with some of the lake poets, these pictures often take on mystic color. (4) The romantics paid great attention to the spiritual and emotional life of man. Personified nature plays an important role in the pages of their works18。

The Rocking-Horse Winner (by D.H. Lawrence)There was a woman who was beautiful, who started with all the advantages, yet she had no luck. She married for love, and the love turned to dust. She had bonny （漂亮的） children, but she did not love them. They looked at her coldly, as if they were finding fault with her. Nevertheless, when her children were present, she was all the more gentle and anxious for her children, as if she loved them very much. Only she herself knew that at the centre of her heart was a hard little place that could not feel love, no, not for anybody. Everybody else said of her: “She is such a good mother. She adores her children.” Only she herself, and her children themselves, knew it was not so. They read it in each other ’s eyes.There were a boy and two little girls. They lived in a pleasant house, with a garden, and they had servants, and felt themselves superior to anyone in the neighborhood. Although they lived in style, they felt always an anxiety in the house. There was never enough money. The mother had a small income, and the father had a small income, but not nearly enough for the social position which they had to keep up. There was always the grinding sense of the shortage of money, though the style was always kept up.The children were growing up, they would have to go to school. There must be more money. The father, who was always very handsome and expensive in his tastes, seemed as if he never would be able to do anything worth doing. And the mother, who had a great belief in herself, did not succeed any better, and her tastes were just as expensive.And so the house came to be haunted by the unspoken phrase: There must be more money! There must be more money! The children could hear it all the time though nobody said it aloud. They heard it at Christmas, when the expensive and splendid toysfilled the nursery. Yet nobody ever said it aloud. The whisper was everywhere, and therefore no one spoke it. Just as no one ever says: “We are breathing!” in spite of the fact that breath is coming and going all the time.“Mother,” said the boy Paul one day, “why don’t we keep a car of our own? Why do we always use uncle’s, or else a taxi?”“Because we’re the poor members of the family,” said the mother.“But why are we, mother?”“Well - I suppose,”she said slowly and bitterly, “it’s because your father has no luck.”“Oh!” said the boy. “Then what is luck, mother?”“It’s what c auses you to have money. If you’re lucky you have money. That’s why it’s better to be born lucky than rich. If you’re rich, you may lose your money. But if you’re lucky, you will al ways get more money.’“Well, anyhow,” he said stoutly, “I’m a lucky person.”“Why?” said his mother, with a sudden laugh.He stared at her. He didn't even know why he had said it. “God told me,” he asserted. “I hope He did, dear!”, she said, again with a laugh, but rather bitter.“He did, mother!” Paul assertedHe went off by himself, and in his room he would sit on his big rocking-horse, driving madly. “Now!”he would silently command the horse. “Now take me to where there is luck! Now take me!” He knew the horse could take him to where there was luck, if only he forced it. At last he stopped forcing his horse and slid down. “Well, I got there!”he announced fiercely, his blue eyes still flaring. “Where did you get?” asked his uncle, “Could you know its name?”“Well, he has different names. He was called Sa nsovino last week.”“Sansovino, eh? Won the Ascot horse-racing. How did you know this name?” asked his uncle.“My horse told me and now I have won 300 pounds by betting the race already. You won’t tell others, right?” answered the boy.“Now, son,” Uncle Oscar said doubtedly, “Let’s check it. There will be a race today. I’m putting twenty on Mirza, and I’ll put five on any horse you fancy. What’s your pick?”“Daffodil this time, uncle.”At last, Daffodil came in first, Lancelot second, Mirza third. His uncle brought himfour five-pound notes, four to one. （四比一的胜率）“What am I to do with these?” the uncle cried, waving the money before boys’ eyes.“I suppose we’ll talk to Bassett, our gardener and he is also my partner in horse-racing,” said the boy. “I expect I have had fifteen hundred now.”Uncle Oscar turned to Bassett and asked how they wined in horse racing. “It’s Master Paul, sir,” said Bassett in a secret, religious voice. “It’s as if he had the news from heaven.” Later, his uncle joined them and Paul even had made ten thousand in a race.“But what are you going to do with your money?” asked the uncle.The boy said, “I started it for mother. She said she had no luck, because father is unlucky, so I thought if I was l ucky, it might stop whispering.”“What might stop whispering?”“Our house. I hate our house for whispering.”“What does it whisper?”The boy answered: “I don't know. But it’s always short of money, you know, uncle. The house whispers, like people laughing at you behind your back. It's awful, that is! I thought if I was lucky,…”“You might stop it,” added the uncle.“Well, then!” said the uncle. “What are we doing?”“I shouldn't like mother to know I was lucky,” said the boy.“All right, son! We’ll manage it without her knowing.”They managed it very easily. Paul, at the other’s suggestion, handed over five thousand pounds to his uncle, who deposited (存入) it with the family lawyer, who was then to inform Paul's mother that a relative had put five thousand pounds into his hands, which sum was to be paid out a thousand pounds at a time, on the mother’s birthday, for the next five years.“So she’ll have a birthday present of a thousand pounds for five succes sive years,”said Uncle Oscar. “I hope it won’t make it all the harder for her later.”Paul’s mother had her birthday in November. The house had been “whispering”worse than ever lately, and, even in spite of his luck. She was down to breakfast on the morning of her birthday. Paul watched her face as she read her letters. He knew the lawyer’s letter. As his mother read it, her face hardened and became more expressionless. Then a cold, determined look came on her mouth. She hid the letter under the pile of others, and said not a word about it.But in the afternoon Uncle Oscar appeared. H e said Paul’s mother had had a longinterview with the lawyer, asking if the whole five thousand could not be advanced at once, as she was in debt.“What do you think, uncle?” said the boy. The uncle said, “I leave it to you, son.”“Oh, let her have it, then! We can get some more with the other,” said the boy.So Uncle Oscar signed the agreement, and Paul’s mother touched the whole five thousand. Then something very curious happened. The voices in the house suddenly went mad, like a chorus of frogs on a spring evening. “There must be more money! Oh-h-h; there must be more money. More than ever! More than eve r!”“I’ve got to know the result for the Derby horse-racing! I’ve got to know for the Derby!” the child reiterated (反复说), his big blue eyes blazing with a sort of madness.Paul’s secret of secrets was his wooden horse, that which had no name. To keep it, he had his rocking-horse removed to his own bedroom at the top of the house.“Surely you’re too big for a rocking-horse!” his mother had remonstrated.（告诫）“Well, you see, mother, till I can have a real horse, I like to have some sort of animal about,” had been his answer.The Derby was drawing near, and the boy grew more and more tense. He hardly heard what was spoken to him, he was very frail, and his eyes were really strange.Two nights before the Derby, she was at a big party in town. But an unrest was so strong that she had to leave the dance and go downstairs to telephone her house. “Are the c hildren all right, Miss Wilmot?”“Oh yes, they are quite all right.”Paul’s mother said: “It's all right. Don’t sit up. We shall be home fairly soon.”It was about one o’clock when Paul’s mother and father drove up to their house. All was still. Pau l’s mother went to her room and slipped off her white fur cloak. She had told her maid not to wait up for her. She heard her husband downstairs, mixing a whisky and soda.And then, because of the strange anxiety at her heart, she stole upstairs to her son’s room. Noiselessly she went along the upper corridor. Was there a faint noise?Then suddenly she switched on the light, and saw her son, in his green pajamas, madly surging on the rocking-horse. The blaze of light suddenly lit him up, as he urged the wooden horse, and lit her up, as she stood, blonde, in her dress of pale green and crystal, in the doorway.“Paul!” she cried. “Whatever are you doing?”“It’s Malabar!” he screamed in a powerful, strange voice. “It’s Malabar!”“What does he mean by Malabar?” asked the heart-frozen mother.“I don’t know,” said the father stonily. “What does he mean by Malabar?” she asked her brother Oscar, who came here as soon as he heard Paul was ill.“It’s one of the horses running for the Derby,” was the answer.The third day of the illness was critical: they were waiting for a change. The boy, with his rather long, curly hair, was tossing ceaselessly on the pillow. He neither slept nor regained consciousness, and his eyes were like blue stones. His mother sat, feeling her heart had gone, turned actually into a stone.The gardener tiptoed into the room and stole to the bedside, staring with glittering, smallish eyes at the tossing, dying child.“Master Paul!” he whispered. “Master Paul! Malabar came in first all right, a clean win. I did as you told me. You've made over seventy thousand pounds, you have; you’ve got over eighty thousand. Malabar c ame in all right, Master Paul.”“I never told you, mother, that if I can ride my horse, and get there, then I’m absolutely sure - oh, absolutely! Mother, did I ever tell you? I am lucky!”“No, you never did,” said his mother. But the boy died in the night.And even as he lay dea d, his mother heard her brother’s voice saying to her, “My God, Hester, you’re eighty thousand to the good, and a poor devil of a son to the bad. But, poor devil, poor devil, he’s best gone out of a life where he rides his rocking-horse to find a winner.”ABC大学2012-2013学年第一学期《英国文学》课程考试试卷答案适用班级：英语系2010级卷型：（A卷）Part I Multiple Choices (每小题 1分，共20分)Part II Identification of Fragments (每小题10分，共30分)21.
