Viktor Frankl， a famous Jewish psychiatrist(精神病医生）, wrote his bestselling 1946 book Mans Search for Meaning in nine days about his experiences in Nazi concentration camps. Frankl concluded that the difference between those prisoners who had lived and those who had died came down to one thing ： Meaning, an insight he came to early in life. In 1991, the Library of Congress listed Man5s Search for Meaning as one of the 10 most influential books in the United States. It has sold millions of copies worldwide. Now, over twenty years later, the book s ideas—its emphasis on meaning, the value of suffering, and responsibility to something greater than the self—seem to be at odds with our culture, which is more interested in the pursuit of individual happiness than in the search for meaning. But happiness cannot be pursued. It follows. One must have a reason to be happy ,” Frankl wrote. According to Gallup, the happiness levels of Americans are at a four-year high. Gallup also reports that nearly 60% of all Americans today feel happy, without a lot of stress or worry. On the other hand, according to the Center for Disease Control, about 4 out of 10 Americans have not discovered a satisfying life purpose. 40% either do not think their lives have a clear sense of purpose or are neutral about whether their lives have purpose. Nearly a quarter of Americans do not have a strong sense of what makes their lives meaningful. Research has shown that having purpose and meaning in life increases overall well-being and life satisfaction, improves mental and physical health, and decreases the chances of depression. On top of that, the single-minded pursuit of happiness is leaving people less happy, according to recent research. 20. According to Paragraph 1, we know that Viktor Frankl_____________ . A. wrote his early life experience as a soldier B. lost his hope of seeking the meaning of life C. spent nine days in Nazi concentration camps D. survived with the spiritual support of life meaning 21. The book’s ideas don't agree with American culture because Americans are more interested in searching for____. A. happiness B. meaning C. suffering D. stress 22. The percentage of Americans who don’t have a satisfying life purpose is______________ . A. 25% B. 60% C. 40% D. 10% 23. Which of the following is the idea the author intends to convey? A. Mental health is the most important factor in life. B. Pursuit of happiness is the most important thing in life. C. Physical health can be improved if you are happy. D. Realizing the meaning of life is important to happiness. Questions 24 to 27 are based on the following passage. If you’ve ever lost your wallet (钱包), then you know that it’s a very terrible experience. Most people keep a lot in their wallets. That’s where they keep their drivers license, their 3

credit cards, and all kinds of other important things. Of course，that’s also where most of us keep our cash. We all need cash in our lives. However, something called digital currency is slowly replacing cash. A currency is a kind of money. Usually, we use currency when we talk about a country’s money. For example, the UK is the pound, and the USA is the dollar. If something is digital, it only exists on a computer. So “digital currency” means money that only exists on computers. Lots of people have digital currency accounts. They use a credit card to change their real money into digital money, and then the money goes into the digital currency account. A lot of people wonder, “Why in the world should I change my real money into digital money? ” This is a fair question, but there’s a good answer. If you want to buy something online, then you usually have to use digital currency. For example， if you’re in China and you want to buy something in Canada, then you’ll have to pay with digital currency. Many people still don’t trust digital currency. Some people think that if they can’t hold their money in their hand, then it doesn’t seem real. These people don’t feel comfortable when they see numbers on a computer screen. The computer tells them that their money is safe, but these people don’t feel safe. Another problem is security. There are hackers all over the world. A hacker is a person who steals computer information. If a hacker gets the password of your digital currency account, he or she can steal your money. You have to decide whether or not you trust this new invention. Just remember one thing： If you want to buy something online, then you probably won’t have a choice. You’ll have to use digital money. 24. The word “fair”（ Para. 3) is closest in meaning to__________ . A. beautiful B. equal C. pleasant D. reasonable 25. Which of the following is probably a hacker according to the passage? A. A person who uses a computer to steal things. B. A person who composes computer programs. C. A person who uses a computer to buy things. D. A person who owns a lot of digital currency. ' 26. How do those who don’t trust digital currency think about money? A. The money on a computer screen is safe. B. The money in their hand is real. C. Real money is worth more than digital money. D. Real money and digital money are the same. 27. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Hacker problems in the world. C. A new kind of money. B. Currencies used in particular countries. D. Safety of digital currency. Questions 28 to 31 are based on the following passage. Zoos are hugely popular attractions for adults and children alike. But are they actually a good thing? Critics of zoos would argue that animals often suffer physically and mentally by being enclosed (封闭). Even the best artificial environments can^ come close to matching the space and freedom that animals have in their natural environments. This enclosure causes many zoo animals to become stressed or mentally ill. Capturing animals in the wild also causes much suffering by splitting up families. Some zoos make animals behave unnaturally. For example, in some parks 4

dolphins (海豚)are forced to perform tricks, who may die decades earlier than their wild relatives. And some even try to kill themselves. On the other hand, by bringing people and animals together, zoos have the potential to educate the public about conservation issues and inspire people to protect animals and their natural environments. Some zoos provide a safe environment for animals which have been mistreated by people, or pets which have been abandoned. Zoos also carry out important research into subjects like animal behavior and how to treat illnesses. One of the most important modern functions of zoos is supporting international breeding(繁殖) programmes, particularly for endangered species(种群). In the wild， some of the rarest species have difficulty in finding mates and breeding. A good zoo will enable these species to live and breed in secure environments. So, are zoos good for animals or not? Perhaps it all depends on how well individual zoos are managed, and the benefits of zoos can surely outweigh their harmful effects. However, it is understandable that many people believe imprisoning animals for any reason is simply wrong. 28. The expression “artificial environments” (Para. 2)is used in contrast to_______________. A. natural environments C. breeding programmes B. some zoos D. modern functions 29. Why are dolphins mentioned in Paragraph 2? A. They are ocean animals. B. They are good at performing. C. They are made to behave unnaturally in some parks. D. They are supported by international breeding programmes. 30. According to the passage, international breeding programmes are particularly important to________. A. animals in zoos C. dolphins in parks B. split-up families D. endangered species 31. What is the author’s attitude towards zoos? A. Negative B. Positive C. Critical D. Understandable Questions 32 to 35 are based on the following passage. How many times, when finding yourself in a difficult situation, have you heard something like, “You just need to go somewhere, change your environment, and meet new people.” Upon hearing this, we think such advice can be annoying： going through hard times, you rather expect help, sympathy, or at least something more practical, rather than “You know， you should travel”. However, the surprising truth is that this is probably one of the most useful and practical pieces of advice you can get. Of course, you cannot abandon everything and set off to go on a world trip. All of us have duties, responsibilities, debts, connections. However, the advice to travel does not necessarily imply something like departing to Nepal and living among monks(僧侣) for years. In fact, small but regular journeys are available almost to everyone, and the positive effects they can have on your mental condition and your ability to cope with difficulties are significant. When you are stressed， your thoughts obviously cannot be positive and optimistic(乐观的). So, whether you want it or not, you will view your life situation from a rather pessimistic perspective(悲观的视角). immediately start to feel your problems fade. “Out of sight, out of mind,’’ as the saying goes. Of course, I am not saying the easiest way to feel better is to escape from problems; I rather However， when you board a plane and fly overseas, you almost 5

mean that taking a break and allowing yourself to breathe in some fresh air can give you a new perspective. Having a good rest is a necessary condition of any recovery, and your mind definitely needs rest from time to time. Speaking of new perspectives, when travelling, you will inevitably meet a lot of new people. Some of them will become friends of yours; some will remain strangers. Psychologists have known that perhaps the most honest and sincere communication often occurs between strangers； this is called "the companion effect”. Use it to your advantage. Whether you need advice, help, or a person who would quietly listen to you as you share your hardships, there is no better opportunity to get all this from strangers while travelling. Travelling can not solve your problems but will help you recover from your mental wounds, get rid of the excessive stress, and give you the skills to deal with your hardships as you return home. 32. While in a difficult situation, people think the suggestion “ You just need to go somewhere” ______. A. annoying C. practical D. useful . B. surprising 33. What does the advice to travel really mean in this passage? A. Finding a temple and living with the monks. B. Giving up your duties and departing to Nepal. C. Starting a small journey and getting yourself refreshed. D. Forgetting everything and starting a trip around the world. 34. What does the word “ it ” （ Para. 4) refer to? A. A trip. B. The communication. C. A new perspective. D. The companion effect. 35. What is the probable title for this passage? A. Sincere Communication Is a Way Out of Problems B. Travelling Offers New Perspectives in Life Situation C. Going Through Hard Times Needs Help and Sympathy D. Travelling Is the Best Way to Escape from Problems Part Ⅲ Cloze Directions: Thereisapassageinthispartwith 10 blanksinit.Readthepassagecarefullyand then choose the most the appropriate answer from the 4 choices marked A., B., C. and D.
