Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own.Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.(1)、Which of the following statements is NOT true?_________A：People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city.B：People who work in London prefer to live in the country.C：Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.D：Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city. (2)、With the same money ________, one can buy a little house with a garden in the country.A：getting a small flat with a garden B：having a small flat with a garden C：renting a small flat without a garden D：buying a small flat without a garden (3)、When the garden is in blossom, it means that one ________ has been rewarded. A：living in the country B：having spent time working in the gardenC：having a garden of his own D：having been digging, planting and watering(4)、People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that _______ if they had to live outside London.A：their life was meaningless B：their life was invaluableC：they didn't deserve a happy life D：they were not worthy of their happy life (5)、The underlined phrase get away from in the 3rd paragraph refers to ________. A：deal with B：do away withC：escape from D：prevent from2、A story is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in Vietnam. He called his parents from San Francisco. "Mom and Dad, I'm coming home, but I've a favor to ask. I have a friend. I'd like to bring him home with me.""Sure," they replied, "we'd love to meet him.""There's something you should know," the son continued, "he was injured pretty badly in the fighting. He stepped on a land mine（地雷）and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to live with us.""We're sorry to hear that, son. But, maybe we can help him find somewhere to live.""No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us.""Son," said the father, "you don't know what you're asking. Someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden to us. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let something like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He'll find a way to live on his own."At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from a building. The police believed he had killed himself.The grief-stricken（悲痛欲绝的）parents flew to San Francisco and were taken to the city morgue（太平间）to identify the body of their son. They recognized him, but to their horror they also discovered something they didn't know, their son had only one arm and one leg.(1)、The soldier called his parents from San Francisco after having fought in Vietnam. A：TB：F(2)、The soldier told his parents that he wanted them to meet his friend in the army. A：TB：F(3)、His father considered his plan unacceptable.A：TB：F(4)、A few days later the parents were told by the police that their son had killed himself.A：TB：F(5)、The son killed himself because he was unable to find a job.A：TB：F第三部分、词汇与结构1.
