He made little pieces of sculpture—men, women and castle, quaint earthen things dotted over with sea-shells. He painted. Thus he wasted his time on all that was useless, needless. People laughed at him. At times he vowed to shake off his whims, but they lingered in his mind.(3) Some boys seldom ply their books and yet pass their tests. A similar thing happened to this man. He spent his earth life in useless work and yet after his death the gates of Heaven opened wide for him.(4) But mistakes are unavoidable even in Heaven. So it came to pass that the aerialmessenger who took charge of the man made a mistake and found him a place in Workers’ Paradise.(5) In this Paradise you find everything except leisure.(6) Here men say: “God! We haven’t a moment to spare.” Women whisper: “Let’s move on, time’s a-flying.” All exclaim: “Time is precious.” “We have our hands full, we make use of every single minute,” they sigh complainingly, and yet those words make them happy and exalted.(7) But this newcomer, who had passed all his life on Earth without doing a scrap of useful work, did not fit in with the scheme of things in Workers’ Paradise. He lounged in the streets absently and jostled the hurrying men. He lay down in green meadows, or close to the fast flowing streams, and was taken to task by busy farmers. He was always in the way of others.(8) A hustling girl went every day to a silent torrent (silent, since in the Workers’ Paradise even a torrent would not waste its energy singing) to fill her pitcher.(9) The girl’s movement on the road was like the rapid movement of a skilled hand on the strings of a guitar. Her hair was carelessly done; inquisitive wisps stooped often over her forehead to peer at the dark wonder of her eye.(10) The idler was standing by the stream. As a princess sees a lonely beggar and is filled with pity, so the busy girl of Heaven saw this one and was filled with pity.(11 ) “A—ha !” she cried with concern. “You have no work in hand, have you?”(12) The man sighed, “Work! I have not a moment to spare for work.”(13) The girl did not understand his words, and said: “I shall spare some work for you to do, if you like.”(14) The man replied: “Girl of the silent torrent, all this time I have been waiting to take some work from your hands.”(15) “What kind of work would you like?”(16) “Will you give me one of your pitchers, one that you can spare?”(17) She asked: “A pitcher? You want to draw water from the torrent?”(18) “No, I shall draw pictures on your pitcher.”(19) The girl was annoyed.(20) “Pictures, indeed! I have no time to waste on such as you. I am going.” And she walked away.(21) But how could a busy person get the better of one who had nothing to do? Every day they met, and every day he said to her: “Girl of the silent torrent, give me one of your clay pitchers. I shall draw pictures on it.”(22) She yielded at last. She gave him one of her pitchers. The man started painting. He drew line after line; he put color after color.(23) When he had completed his work, the girl held up the pitcher and stared at its sides, her eyes puzzled. Brows drawn, she asked: “Wha t do they mean, all those lines and colors? What is their purpose?”(24) The man laughed.(25) “Nothing. A picture may have no meaning and may serve no purpose.”(26) The girl went away with her pitcher. At home, away from prying eyes, she heldit in the light, turned it round and round and scanned the painting from all angles. At night she moved out of bed, lighted a lamp and scanned it again in silence. For the first time in her life she had seen something that had no meaning and no purpose at all.(27) When she set out for the torrent the next day, her hurrying feet were a little less hurried than before. For a new sense seemed to have wakened in her, a sense that seemed to have no meaning and no purpose at all.(28) She saw the painter standing by the t orrent and asked in confusion: “What do you want of me?”(29) “Only some more work from your hands.”(30) “What kind of work would you like?”(31) “Let me make a colored ribbon for your hair,” he answered.(32) “And what for?”(33) “Nothing.”(34) Ribbons were made, bright with colors. The busy girl of Workers’ Paradise had now to spend a lot of time every day tying the colored ribbon around her hair. The minutes slipped by, unutilized. Much work was left unfinished.(35) In Workers’ Paradise w ork had of late begun to suffer. Many persons who had been active before were now idle, wasting their precious time on useless things such as painting and sculpture. The elders became anxious. A meeting was called. All agreed that such a state of affairs h ad so far been unknown in the history of Workers’ Paradise.(36) The aerial messenger hurried in, bowing before the elders and made a confession.(37) “I brought a wrong man into this Paradise,” he said. “It is all due to him.”(38) The man was summoned. As he came the elders saw his fantastic dress, his quaint brushes, his paints, and they knew at once that he was not the right sort for Workers’ Paradise.(39) Stiffly the President said: “This is no place for the like of you. You must leave.”(40) The man sighed in relief and gathered up his brush and paint. But as he was about to go, the girl of the silent torrent came up tripping and cried: “Wait a moment. I shall go with you.”(41) The elders gasped in surprise. Never before had a thing like this happened in Workers’ Paradise—a thing that had no meaning and no purpose at all.III.

(20 points, 2 points for each).41. What do you think is the main point of the story?A. The love of a painter for a pretty girl.B. The opposition between beauty and utility.C.

following passage．most people sometimes feel lonely, but it usually only lasts between minutes and a few hours．this kind of loneliness is not serious．in fact, it is quite normal．for some people, thought, loneliness can last for years．now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness．the first kind of loneliness is temporary．this is the most common type．it usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention．the second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result of a particular situation—for example, a family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to new place．although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year．the third kind of loneliness is the most severe．unlike the second type, chronic ( 习惯性的) loneliness usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause．people who experience habitual loneliness have problem socializing and becoming close to others．unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve theircondition．psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a person’s social contacts, ．friends, family members, coworkers, etc．we depend on various people for different reasons．for instance, our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar interests and activities with us．however, psychologists have found that, though lonely people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more．they question their own popularity．psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart diseases．while temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be a very sad, and sometimes dangerous,condition．21．what can we learn from the passage about temporary loneliness?a．it requires special attention．b．it is very common and usually disappears quickly．c．it is serious but it usually disappears quickly．d．it is as serious as chronic loneliness．0y*Q”rsrm-` WYG r3U http://*Q”rsrm-` WYG r3U22．though lonely people may have many social contacts, ?a．they want to socialize with more peopleb．they still need others to guide themc．they still others to support them emotionallyd．they want to question their own popularity23．what kind of loneliness can cause serious illness?a．temporary lonelinessb．situational loneliness．c．chronic loneliness．d．short-term loneliness．24．why do chronically lonely people need help?a．because they have difficulty socializing and chronic loneliness can cause serious illness．b．because chronic loneliness lastsmore than two years．c．because they think there’s littl e they can do to improve their condition．d．because they think they should have more social contacts．25．according to the passage, which of the following statements is true?a．only a small number of people feel lonely．b．like chronic loneliness, situational loneliness can cause physical problems．c．chronically lonely people have no difficulty socializing and becoming close to others．d．all kinds of loneliness are very dangerous．passage twoquestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage．studies show that the world in 2010 will be more crowded, more polluted and less stable ecologically ( 在生态方面)than the world we live in now．visible ahead is serious stress involving population, resources and environment．despite greater food output, people in the world will be poorer in many ways than they are today．for hundreds of millions of the extremely poor, the outlook for food and other necessities of life will be no better．for many it will be worse．while the economies of the developing countries are expected to grow at a faster rate than those of the industrialized nations, the total national product per head in most less developed countries remains low．the existing gap between the rich and poor nations will further widen．world food production is estimated to increase by 90 percent from 1970 to 2010．most of that increase goes to the countries that already have relativelyhigher per-head food consumption ( 消费)．meanwhile, per-head consumption of food in the developing countries will scarcely improve or will actually fall far below the present inadequate level．what is worse is prices for food are expected to double．as a result, many less developed countries will have increasing difficulties meeting energy needs．for the one quarter of mankind that depends primarily on wood for fuel, the outlook is not hopeful．regional water shortage will become more severe．in the 1970-2010 period population growth will require twice as much water as it does today in nearly half the world．still greater increases would be needed to improve standards of living．development of new water supplies will become more costly．26．according to the passage, in 2010 while output of food will be greater, ．a．people will have sufficient food supplies．b．the world resources will become more than enoughc．in most developing countries people will have less food than they have todayd．the living standards of the world’s population will improve greatly27．according to the author, in 2010 for many poor people, ．a．things will get even worseb．things will be a little betterc．it will be necessary for them to improve their housingd．it will be impossible to obtain enough necessities of life28．in the 1970-2010 period, the large proportion of global increase of food production goes ．a．to 90 percent 9C7}?X&K+3_b?/b:?y/.GSa}M f?L 5 我的学习网自考成考自考试题htTP://]d]:?y/.GSa}M f?L
