A young man, wet from 17 to toe, explained that he had 18 out of petrol about 30 km up the road. He had left his wife and his two children 19 at the car and said that he would hitchhike(搭便车) back.

Today Austen’s books are more popular than ever. In the last 10 years, five of her six novels have been made into Hollywood films, while her books continue to be best-sellers.Richard Jenkyns, a professor of English at Oxford University, says that her novels are about marriage, friendships and the family, which are still with us today. “The stories are timeless,” Jenkyns said.Pride and Prejudice(偏见)(1813) is Austen’s most famous work. It is a love story about Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy. At first, these two dislike each other. Elizabeth is pretty, smart and lively. She is proud because Darcy doesn’t know about her family. Mr. Darcy is handsome, rich and has a better family background. So, he is proud as well. At the same time, Darcy holds a prejudice against the Bennet family. He has no understandingof why the family, especially its mother and daughters should try so hard to find wealthy and powerful husbands. He thinks they are vulgar. Anyway, Elizabeth and Darcy finally fall in love and become a romantic couple but their families don’t want them to.In Pride and Prejudice, some of the main things that Jane Austen wants to teach people are as follows. Opposites can attract each other. Lovers should not only make each other feel relaxed or comfortable, but also educate and improve each other.Austen is often called the greatest romantic writer, so it is surprising she remained unmarried. “Maybe she was too romantic, waiting for the perfect man,” Jenkyns says.34. From Paragraph 1and Paragraph 2, we can know __________ .A. Jane Austen passed away in her fiftiesB. Austen’s works remain popular todayC. all of Austen’s works have been made into Hollywood films.D. Austen’s works are mostly about war and the family.35. What does the underlined word “vulgar” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.粗俗的B.鲁莽的C.吝啬的D.狡诈的36. Elizabeth hasn’t a first good impression of Mr. Darcy because he is___________ .A. too richB. too shyC. too proudD. too rude37. Which of the following sentences is True?A. Elizabeth and Darcy fall in love at first sight.B. Elizabeth has a better family background than Darcy.C. Darcy has a first good impression of Elizabeth’s family.D. Elizabeth and Darcy become a romantic couple in the end.CI will never forget my experiences in the United States. I went to an American collegea year ago. Yet I did not know the real American society until I was hurt in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court（法院）.After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done.I was surprised. He had a good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible(负有责任的) for my accident, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him. But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215. My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to refuse his help. And he made me pay him $770. [来源:Now I had to act as my own lawyer. I told the insurance(保险）company the date I was leaving America because of my inexperience（缺少经验）. Knowing that, they played for time and I left without getting a cent.My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality.Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.38.

Both the doctor and the lawyer in this passage are very__________.A. selfishB. friendlyC. rudeD. busy41. The underlined word “charge” in the second paragraph means ______.A. 职责B. 掌管C. 要价D. 命令42. What conclusion can you get from the story?A. America is not a perfect country.B. One must be very careful while driving a car.C. There are more bad sides in America than good sides.D.
