This means that they raise plants and animals to furnish their families with food and other supplies・They consume their varied output and have little to sei 1 or to trade for other goods・ Subsi stenee farms were common in the United States at one time, but there are few such farms today.Two thirds of American farmers practice cominercial farming.

四川省委党校研究生入学考试复习资料英语试题第三、六套阅读题翻译（注：大家好才是真的好啊）第三套阅读理解题翻译PASSAGE ONE （P176）答案：B A C A D报纸必须向读者提供事实，即不搀杂的、无偏见的、客观选取的事实。

但是在新闻繁杂的今天，报纸必须提供更多的东西；它必须提供解说，即各种事实的含义。

这是美国新闻业面临的最重要的任务——向读者说明当今的各种问题，使国际新闻像社区新闻一样易于理解，承认再也没有什么“当地”新闻这样的事，因为国际方面的任何事件会在人力资源流动、经济压力、以及我们的生活方式产生地区性反应。

在新闻界有一种广泛存在的观点，认为当你考虑作解说时，你正进入危险的领域，即舆论的旋涡之中。

这是胡言。

反对解说的人坚持认为作者和编辑的工作应仅限于“事实”的范围内。

这种坚持产生了两个问题：什么是事实？仅仅事实足够吗？至于第一个问题，请你考虑一下，所谓“事实性”的报导是怎样发生的。

比如说，记者收集了50件事，由于版面必定有限，从这50件事中他挑选了他认为最重要的10件。

这是判断一。

然后他或他的编辑再决定在这10件事中哪一件作为头条。

（这是一项非常重要的决定，因为许多读者只看第一段。

）这是判断二。

然后编辑再决定，这篇文章是否登在第一版，因为第一版影响大，或者登在第24版，因为24版几乎没有什么影响。

这是判断三。

这样，在刊登一件所谓“事实性”或“客观性的”事件时，至少涉及到3次判断。

这些判断与解说中的判断完全一样，在解说中，记者和编辑一边参照他们的研究资料、研究背景和他们的“新闻中立主义”，一边就这条新闻的意义得出结论。

判断的这两个方面，即新闻的报导和解说，都是客观而不是主观的过程——客观得像任何一个人的存在一样。

（虽然绝对的客观是永远无法达到的，但是它永远是媒体追求的终极目标。

）假如一位编辑一心想表达他的偏见，他可以用其它比解说更有效率的方法去做这件事。

他可以选择支持他的观点的事件进行报道。

It for ces you to think about your death, a subject many prefernot to confront. But there’s a single, overriding reason to buy life insurance: to provide an income for your dependents should you die.D on’t depend solely on an agent to figure your li fe-insurance needs. Rule-of-thumb estimates such as five or eight times your income are guesses; they may produce too little or too much insurance. Carry too little insurance and you may not provide a reasonable standard of living for your family after your death; carry too much and you may not enjoy a reasonable standard of living while you are alive.M ost people who have life insurance don’t have enough. The median amount of coverage for all adults with life insurance was only ©†15,000 in 1984. That’s obvi ously not enough to sustain a family with young children for very long. Nationwide Insurance found that married men in its 1984 survey carried an average of about ©†101,880 in life insurance; they need about ©†100,706 more. Married women carried about ©†43,516 worth insurance but needed some ©†98,507 more.H ow do you determine the amount of life insurance you would need to maintain yourfamily’s current life-style if the breadwinner died? First, what your family expenses would be if you died tomorrow. Then analyze your assets and the sources of income that you can use to cover the expenses. Finally, subtract the assets from the needs. The result is the amount of additional insurance that you’ll need to buy.1.The passage intends to tell you.A.life insurance isn’t fun to buyB.life insurance is most important in maintaining your family’s current life-styleC.l ife insurance is the result of amount of additional insurance you’ll need to buyD.how to determine the amount of life insurance you would need2.Why is life insurance not fun to buy?A.Because many people prefer not to talk about the subject.B.Because life insurance can be very expensive.C.Because it reminds you that you may die one day.D.Because it forces you to think.3.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A.Estimates such as five or eight times your income are not reliable.B.Those agents can produce too much insurance.C.You must not rely on agents only to tell you how much life insurance youneed.D.You should believe in neither your agent nor those empirical estimates.4.If you carry too little or too much insurance .A.either you or your family will sufferB.you may not provide a reasonable standard of living for your family afteryour deathC.y ou may not enjoy a reasonable standard of living while you’re aliveD.you will know in the end that they are just wild guesses5.How do you determine the amount of life insurance you would need?A.Analyze your assets and sources of income.B.E stimates your family’s expenses.C.Take away the assets from the expensesD.All of the above参考答案1.D2.

Read the passage carefully and decide on the best choice.So me people think they have an answer to the troubles of automobile crowding and dirty air in large cities. Their answer is the bicycle , or “bike”.In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In new York City, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They claim that if more people rode bicycles to work there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown section of the city and therefore less dirty air from car engines.For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bike riders. For example, they want the city to draw bicycle lanes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders must use the same lanes as cars, there are accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes more people would use bikes.B ut no bicycle lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea—they say it will slow traffic. Some storeowners on the main streets say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business. And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike.The city government has not yet decided what to do to keep everyone happy. Only on weekends, Central Park us closed to cars, and the roads may be used bybicycles only. But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.1.According to the passage, bicycles .A.are more convenient than carsB.are sager traffic tools than carsC.are ridden by most people in U.S.D.are the solution to some city problems2.The idea of special bicycle lanes is most favored by .A.the city governmentB.some bike ridersC.people living far from downtownD.some storeowners3.“Bicycle lanes” probably means .A.narrow passages between buildings for bicycesB.roads full of bicyclesC.special parts of the road for bicycle riders onlyD.roads for bicycles only4.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A.Bike for a Better City members ride bicycles to work.B.Sometimes accidents may occur when cars and bikes are on the same lanes.C.The Central Park is situated in the downtown section of New York.D.In some cities many people use bikes as they have special lanes.5.The best title for this passage is .A.Traffic Crowding in New York CityB.Air Pollution in New York City by carsC.Serial Lanes for PassengersD.

Of course there are too many cares. The Japanese drive very fast when they can, but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different from London, Paris and New York in that it is different when one wants to walk.At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London’s Oxford Street. But the streets near the Ginza in Tokyo always have a lot of peop le on foot, and sometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite; there are just too many of them.The worst time to be in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is when thenight-clubs are closing and everyone wants to go home. There are 35,000 night-clubs in Tokyo, and you do not often see one that is empty.During the day, most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most station, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at the certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded, Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time. On a London train you would see everybody reading a newspaper. In Tokyo trains everybody in a seat seems to be asleep, whether his journey is long or short.In Tokyo, I stood outside the station for five minutes.

They were sitting side by side in the aeroplane, for in spite of all his doubts and fears he had found it very easy to persuade her to come back with him; it had been quite unnecessary to say anything about the sack that he had brought in case she was obstinate. The truth of it was that Mrs. Spens had been thinking so much about hats that she had almost forgotten how very fond of her husband she really was; but when she saw him again, it all came back to her. She realized, too, that he must be very fond of her, or he would not have gone to so much trouble and expense to bring her home; and that pleased her so much that she almost agreed at once to return to Popinsay. But neither of them was enjoying the journey, because flying made Mrs.They arrived in London, and spent a day there. Mrs. Spens went shopping, and the Captain, whose cold was rather worse, began to feel seriously ill; for everything in the shops were very expensive indeed. On the following day they went aboard another aeroplane to fly to the north of Scotland, and landed on an airfield between a little town and an angry sea a small steamer that crossed every day to Popinsay.

党校研究生英语复习资料完形填空Tourism has become a very big business. For Spain, Italy and Greece it is the largest resource of foreign exchange, and even for Britain, it is t he fourth. Faced with this huge new income, no government can afford to look down on the business. Questions of hotel bath rooms, beach umbrell as and ice-cream sales are now discussed by ministers of tourism with sol emn expertise. Before the Second World War the tourist industry was wid ely regarded as being unmanly and stupid. But tourism has become a ne w industry, as trade business used to do. In Spain, Italy, Greece and much of Eastern Europe, new road systems of Eastern Europe, new road syste ms have opened up in the country, first to tourists, and then to industry an d locals.All of tourism is a nationalized industry, a minor part of national pla nning. In a place west of Marseilles ,the French government is killing mosquitoes and built six big vacationg placesto pull nearly a million tourists.In Eastern Europe, a whole new seaside civilization has sprung u p over the last few years. The governments have greatly benefited when t ourism from the West multiplied from half a million four years ago to ne arly two million last year.Thousands of years ago in Egypt, kings built the pyramids. They used to build them as their tombs. The kings thought the pyramids would help them find life after death. They also wanted the world to remember them as important people. Some pyramids were for queens.But they are less interesting because they are not as big. The oldest pyramid that we know today is the pyramid near Sahara in Egypt. It is about 5,000 years old. Thereare many pyramids along the Nile River. The largest is the pyramid of Khufu. It is made of two million three hundred thousand huge stones, most of them higher than a person. It is about 144 meters high. Inside the pyramid are the burial rooms for the king and queen and long passage ways to these rooms. The rest of the pyramid is solid stone. We know there were wonderful treasures in the pyramids. Robbers broke into the pyramids and took many of these treasures. Today some of the treasures are in museums ever. How did the people of ancient days build the pyramids? How did they carry and lift the huge stones? Each stone lifts so well and they didn't have our modern machines. Scientists have studied the pyramids but nobody can say just how they did it. Someday if you can, you ought to go to see the pyramids. I assure you that they would be amazing.Broadly speaking, the Englishman is a quiet, shy, reserved person who is fully relaxed only among people he knows well.In the presence of strangers or foreigners he often seams inhibited,otherwise embarrassed. You have only to take a commuter train any morning or evening to see the truth of this. Serious looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing in a corner; no one speaks. In fact, to do so would seem most unusual.Practically, there is here an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior. Which, if broken, makes the person immediately the object of attention.It is a well-known fact that the English have a passion for the discussion of their weather and that, given half a chance, they will talk about it at length. Some people argue that it is because English weather violates forecast and hence is a source of interest to everyone. This may be so.Fundamentally Englishmen cannot have much faith in the weathermen, who, after promising fine,sunny weather fo r the following day, are of- ten proved wrong when a cloud o ver the Atlantic brings rainy weather to all districts! The man in the street seems to be as accurate —or as inaccurate — as the weathermen in his predictions. The overseas visitors may be excused for showing surprise at the number of references to weather that the English make to each other in the course of a single day. Very often conversational greetings are conducted by comments on the weather. "Nice day, isn't it?" "Beautiful!" may well be heard insteadof "Good morning, how are you?" Although the foreigner may consider this exaggerated and comic, it is worthwhile pointing out that it could be used to his advantage.If he wants to start a conversation with an Englishman but is at a loss to know where to begin, he could do well to mention the state of the weather. It is a safe subject which will stimulate an answer from even the most reserved of Englishmen.It had been a tiring day and I was looking forward to a quiet evening. My husband wouldn’t come back until late and I had decided to sit down in a comfortable armchair in the living room and read a good book. I put the children to bed early and fixed a cold supper and some coffee. Soon I was settled comfortably with my book in front of me and a sandwich and cup of coffee on a tray beside me.I was just beginning to eat when the telephone rang. I dropped my book and hurried to answer it. By the time I got back to the living room, my coffee was cold. I ate the sandwich and began sipping cold coffee with my book still open to the first page. Suddenly there was a loud knock at the front door. It startled me so muchthat I spilled some coffee on my skirt. The man at the door was looking for a certain address and wantedme to give him directions. It took me a long time to get rid of him. After that, I sat down again and managed to read a whole pagewithout further interruption—until the baby woke up. He started screaming at the top of his lungs, so I rushed upstairs. He was still awake at 11 o′clock when my hu sband came home, I could have thrown something at him when he asked me if I had spent a pleasant evening.完型句子The oldest stone buildings in the world are the pyramids. They have stood for nearly 5,000 years, and it seems likely that they will continue to stand for thousands of years yet.There are over eighty of them scattered along the banks of the Nile, some of which are different in shape from the true pyramids. The most famous of these are the "Step" pyramid and the "Bent" pyramid.Some of the pyramids still look much the same as they must have done when they were built thousands of years ago. Most of the damage suffered by the others has been at the hands of men who were looking for treasure or, more often, for stone to use in modern buildings. The dry climate of Egypt has helped to preserve the pyramids, and their very shape has made them less likely to fall into ruin. These are good reasons why they can still be seen today, but perhaps the most important is that they were planned to last for ever.It is practically certain that plans were made for the building of thepyramids because the plans of other large works have fortunately been preserved. However, there are no writings or pictures to show us how the Egyptians planned or built the pyramids themselves. Consequently, we are only able to guess atthe methods used. Nevertheless, by examining the actual pyramids and various tools which have been found, archaeologists have formed a fairly clear picture of them.One thing is certain: there must have been months of careful planning before they could begin to build. The first thing they had to do was to choose a suitable place. You may think this would have been easy with miles and miles of empty desert around, but a pyramid could not be built just anywhere. Certain rules had to be followed, and certain problems had to b overcome.The step pyramid had to be on the west side of the Nile,the side on which the sun sets.This was for religious reasons.It also had to stand well above the level of the river to protect it against the regular floods.It could not be too far from the Nile,however,as the stones to build it needed to be carried in boats down the river to the nearest point.Water transport was,of course,much easier than land transport.The builders also had to find a rock base which was not likely to crack under the great weight of the pyramid.Finally,it had to be near the capital,or better still,near the king’s palace so that he could visit it easily and personally check the progress being made on the final resting place for his body.From good reading we can derive pleasure, companionship, exp erience, and instruction. A good book may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget our surroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasu res in life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading, our contact with good books should never fail t o give us enjoyment and satisfaction.With a good book in our hands we need never be lonely. Whe ther the characters portrayed are taken from real life or are purely imaginary, they may become our companions and friends. In the pa ges of books we can walk with the wise and the good of all lands and all times. The people we meet in books may delight us either because they resemble human friends whom we hold dear or beca use they present unfamiliar types whom we are glad to welcome as new acquaintances. Our human friends sometimes may bore us, bu t the friends we make in books need never weary us with their com pany. By turning the page we can dismiss them without any fear o f hurting their feelings. When human friends desert us, good books are always ready to give us friendship, sympathy, and encouragem ent.One of the most valuable gifts bestowed by books is experienc e. Few of us can travel far from home or have a wide range of e xperiences, but all of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books. Whether we wish to escape from the seemingly dull realiti es of everyday life or whether we long to visit some far-off place, a book will help us when nothing else can. To travel by book we need no bank account to pay our way; no airship or ocean liner o r stream-lined train to transport us; no passport to enter the land of our heart's desire. Through books we may get the thrill of hazardo us adventure without danger. We can climb lofty mountains, brave t he perils of an Antarctic winter, or cross the scorching sands of th e desert, all without hardship. In books we may visit the studios of Hollywood; we may mingle with the gay throngs of the Paris bou levards; we may join the picturesque peasants in an Alpine village or the kindly natives on a South Sea island. Indeed, through book s the whole world is ours for the asking. The possibilities of our lit erary experiencesare almost unlimited. The beauties of nature, the enjoyment of music, the treasures of art, the triumphs of architectur e, the marvels of engineering, are all open to the wonder and enjo yment of those who read.阅读理解Demands for stronger protection for wildlife in Britain sometimes hide the fact that similar needs are felt in the rest of Europe. Studies by the Council of Europe, of which 21 counties are members, have shown that 45 per cent of reptile species and 24 per cent of butterflies are in danger of dying out.European concern for wildlife was outlined by Dr Peter Baum, an expert in the environment and natural resources division of the council, when he spoke at a conference arranged by the administrators of a British national park. The park is one of the few areas in Europe to hold the council's diploma for nature reserves of the highest quality, and Dr Peter Baum had come to present it to the park once again. He was afraid that public opinion was turning against national parks, and that those set up in the 1960s and 1970s could not be set up today. But Dr Baum clearly remained a strong supporter of the view that natural environments needed to be allowed to survive in peace in their own right."No area could be expected to survive both as a true nature reserve and as a tourist attraction," he went on. The short-sighted view that reserves had to serve immediate human demands for outdoor recreation should be replaced by full acceptance of their importance as places to preserve nature for the future."We forget that they are the guarantee of life systems, on which anybuilt-up area ultimately depends," Dr Baum went on. "Wecould manage without most industrial products, but we could not manage without nature. However, our natural environment areas, which are the original parts of our countryside, have shrunk to become mere islands in a spoiled and highly polluted land mass."1. Recent studies by the council of Europe show thatA) it is only in Britain that wildlife needs more protectionB) certain species of reptiles an butterflies in Europe need protectingC) there are fewer species of reptiles and butterflies in Europe than else whereD) all species of wildlife in Europe are in danger of dying out2. Dr Baum,a representative of the Council,visited one particular British national park becauseA) he was presenting the park with a diploma for its achievementsB) he was concerned about its managementC) it was the only national park of its kind in Europe.D) it was the only park which had ever received a diploma from the Council.3. Although it is difficult nowadays to convince the public of the importance of nature reserves,Dr.Baum felt that _____________A) People would support moves to create mere environment areasB) People would carry on supporting those national parks in existenceC) existing national parks would need to be more independent to surviveD) certain areas of our countryside should be left undisturbed by man4. In Dr Baum's opinion, a true nature reserveA) could never survive in a modern ageB) should provide buildings for human activitiesC) should be regarded as a place where nature is protectedD) could provide special areas for tourists to enjoy5. Although we all depend on the resources of nature for our survival,A) industrial products are replacing all our natural resourcesB) We have allowed areas of countryside to be spoilt by industrial developmentC) we have forgotten what our original countryside looked likeD) it is only on islands that nature survivesThe word "conservation" has a thrifty (节俭)meaning.To conserve is to save and protect, to leave what we ourselves enjoy in such good condition so that others may also share the enjoyment.Our forefathers had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of raw materials;most of them, even until very recently, had this foolish ideathat the treasures were "limitless" and"inexhaustible". Most of the citizens or earlier generations knew little or nothing about the complicatedand delicate system that runs all through nature, and which means that, as in a living body, an unhealthycondition of one part will sooner or later be harmful to all the others.Fifty years ago nature study was not part of the school work; scientific forestry (林地) was a newidea: timber (木材) was still cheap because it could be brought in any quantity from distant woodlands;soil destruction and river floods were not national problems; nobody had yet studied longterm climatic cycles in relation to proper land use; even the word "conservation" hadnothing of the meaning that it has for us today.For the sake of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about repairing the mistakes of our forefathers.Conservation should, therefore, be made a part of everyone's daily life.Toknow about the water table (地下水位) in the ground is just as important to us as a knowledge of the basic mathematic formulas.We need to know why all watersheds need the protection of plant life and why the running current of streams and river must be made to yield their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea.We need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them.We need to know the importance of big, mature trees, because living space for most of man's fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surfacebut also in cubic volume above the earth.In brief, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can.1. The author's attitude towards the present situation in the use of natural resources is ________.A. criticalB. neutralC. positiveD. suspicious2. According to the author, the greatest mistake of our forefathers was that ________.A. they did not know the importance of nature studyB. they had no idea about scientific forestryC. they had little or no sense of environmental protectionD. they had no idea of how to make good use of raw materials3. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that earlier generationgs didn’t realizeA. the importance of proper use of landB. the value of the beauty of natureC. the harmfulness of soil destruction and river floodsD. the interdependence of water，soil，and living things4. To avoid the mistakes of our forefathers, the author suggests that ________A. we plant more treesB. we return to natureC. natural science be taught to everybodyD. environmental education be directed toward everyone5. What does the author imply by saying "living space...above the earth" in the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?A. We need to take some measures to protect spaceB. Our living space should measured in cubic volumeC. Our living space on the earth is getting smaller and smallerD. We must create better living conditions for both birds and animalsThe long years of food shortage in this country have suddenly given way to apparentabundance. Stores and shops are choked with food. Ratio ning (定量供应) is virtually suspended, and overseas suppliers have been asked to hold back deliverie s. Yet, instead ofjoy, there is widespread uneasiness and confusion. Why d o food prices keep on rising, whenthere seems to be so much more food a bout? Is the abundance only temporary, or has itcome to stay? Does it me an that we need to think less now about producing more food athome? No one knows what to expect.The recent growth of export surpluses on the world foodmarket has certai nly beenunexpectedly great, partly because a strange sequence of two suc cessful grain harvests.North America is now being followed by a third. M ost of Britain’s overseas suppliers of meat,too, are offering more this year and home production has also risen.But the effect of all this on the food situation in this country has been ma de worse by asimultaneous rise in food prices, due chiefly to the gradual c utting down of governmentsupport for food. The shops are overstocked w ith food not only because there is more foodavailable, but also because pe ople, frightened by high prices, are buying less of it.Moreover, the rise in domestic prices has come at a time when world pric es have begun to fall,with the result that imported food, with the exceptio n of grain, is often cheaper than thehome-produced variety. And now grai n prices, too, are falling. Consumers are beginning to askwhy they should not be enabled to benefit from this trend.The significance of these developments is not lost on farmers. The older g eneration have seen itall happen before. Despite the present price and mar ket guarantees, farmers fear they areabout to be squeezed between cheap f ood imports and a shrinking home market. Presentproduction is running a t 51 per cent above pre-war levels, and the government has called for ane xpansion to 60 per cent by 1956; but repeated Ministerial advice is carryi ng little weight andthe expansion programme is not working very well.1. Why is there “wide-spread uneasiness and confusion about the food situation in Britain?”A) The abundant food supply is not expected to last.B) Britain is importing less food.C) Despite the abundance, food prices keep rising.D) Britain will cut back on its production of food.2. The main reason for the rise in food prices is that ________.A) people are buying less foodB) the government is providing less support for agriculture productsC) domestic food production has decreasedD) imported food is driving prices higher3. Why didn’t the government’s expansion programme work very wel l?A) Because the farmers were uncertain about the financial support the go vernmentguaranteedB) Because the farmers were uncertain about the benefits of expanding pr oductionC) Because the farmers were uncertain about whether foreign markets co uld be found for theirproduceD) Because the older generation of farmers were strongly against the prog rammer4. The decrease in world food price was a result of ________.A) a sharp fall in the purchasing power of the consumersB) a sharp fall in the cost of food productionC) the overproduction of food in the food-importing countriesD) the overproduction on the part of the main food-exporting countries5. What did the fut ure look like for Britain’s food production at the ti me this articlewas written?A) The fall in world food prices would benefit British food producers.B) An expansion of food production was at hand.C) British food producers would receive more government financial supp ort.D) It looks depressing despite government guarantees.Let us ask what were the preparation and training Abraham Lincoln had for oratory, whether political or forensic.Born in rude and abject poverty, he never had any education, except what he gave himself, till he was approaching manhood. Not even books wherewith to inform and train his mind were within his reach. No school, no university, no legal faculty had any part in training his powers. When h e became a lawyer and a politician, the years most favorable to continuou s study had already passed, and the opportunities he found for reading we re very scanty. He knew but few authors in general literature, though he k new those few thoroughly. He taught himself a little mathematics, but he could read no language save his own, and can have had only the faintest a cquaintance with European history or with any branch of philosophy.The want of regular education was not made up for by the persons a mong whom his lot was cast. Till he was a grown man, he never moved in any society from which he could learn those things with which the mind of an orator to be stored. Even after he had gained some legal practice, th ere was for many years no one for him to mix with except the petty practi tioners of a petty town, men nearly all of whom knew little more than he did himself.Schools gave him nothing, and society gave him nothing. But he had a powerful intellect and a resolute will. Isolation fostered not only self-re liance but the habit of reflection, and indeed, of prolonged and intense ref lection. He made all that he knew apart of himself. His convictions were his own——clear and coherent. He was not positive or opinionated and h e did not deny that at certain moments he pondered and hesitated long bef ore he decided on his course. But though he could keep a policy in suspen se, waiting for events to guide him, he did not waver. He paused and reco nsidered, but it was never his way to go back on a decision once more or t o waste time in vain regrets that all he had expected had not been attained . He took advice readily and left many things to his ministers; but he did n ot lean on his advisers. Without vanity or ostentation, he was always inde pendent, self-contained, prepared to take full responsibility for his acts.1. It is implied in the second paragraph that Abraham LincolnA) was illiterateB) was never educatedC) was never provided with any regular educationD) behaved rudely when he was young2. We are also told that Abraham LincolnA) never cared much for readingB) did much reading when he was youngC) never had much chance to readD) became an enthusiastic reader when he was grown up3. It is said in the third paragraph that Abraham LincolnA) was anti-socialB) learned little from his friendsC) had few friendsD) knew very few doctors4. The habit of reflection helped LincolnA) to develop independenceB) to become more opinionatedC) to attain clear convictionsD) to become a hesitant person。
