Mark Twain was a great writer. He was from the USA. He was born in 1835. He was also a famous speaker. He was famous for his sense of humour. Many people liked to listen to him talk because he liked to tell some interesting stories to make people laugh all the time. One day Mark Twain was going to a small town because of his writing. Before he was going to leave, one of his friends said to him that there were always a lot of mosquitoes(蚊子) in the town and told him that he’d better not go there. Mark Twain waved (摇动) his hand and said, “It doesn’t matter. The mosquitoes are no relatives of mine. I don’t think they will come to visit me.” After he arrived at the town, Mark Twain stayed in a small hotel near the station.

Ten years ago I used to be very fit (健康的). I rode a bike to work and I got a lot of exercise at weekends. I used to play tennis a lot and go for long walks. In those days I didn’t earn very much. I had a job in an office. It wasn’t a very good job but I had a lot of time to do the things I enjoyed doing. Then, about eight years ago, I got a much better job. The pay was better, but the hours were a lot longer. I bought a car and drove to work every day. I began to take people out to lunch. And I began to put on weight, too. I stopped playing tennis and going for long walks at weekends because I just didn’t have any time for things like that any more. There’s a lot of stress (压力) in my job. Perhaps that’s why I started drinking more than I used to. For example, I used to have only half a glass of whisky when I got home, but then I started filling my glass to the top, and instead of having one glass, I would have several. I started smoking a lot, too. I never used to smoke at all. Two months ago I had a heart attack. At first I just couldn’t believe it. Luckily it wasn’t very serious. The doctor advised me to stop smoking and to eat less. He also advised me to work less and get more exercise. But I just haven’t any time! My job takes everything out of me! Sometimes I wonder if I should get another job. Perhaps I could do something like I used to do. But if I do that, I won’t earn as much. I have a family to support. I have to think of them, too. I just don’t know what I should do. What do you think? 1.Compared with ten years ago, what is worse for the author now?
2. According to the passage, when the author got the better job, which of the following is NOT true?
3.After the author had a heart attack, the doctor advised him _____.

Science, as we think, was born when the Greek philosopher ( 哲学家 ) Thales ( about 640-546 B.C.) asked a difficult question: What makes up our universe? No one had a ready answer, so Thales went on studying the earth around him, the sky and the stars. He saw so much water on earth and so much water falling from the sky as rain that he decided water must be the basic substance ( 物质 ) of the universe. Other Greek thinkers became interested in this question. They suggested other answers. One said that because air lies around the earth, it must be air that makes up all things. Another said that fire, appearing in different forms, was the building block of the universe. The Greek philosophers were feeling their way towards the ideas on which chemistry is based. Centuries later, scientists proved that the universe is made up of certain basic substances. But the list is much more complicated than the Greeks realized. We now know of 103 basic substances which we call “ elements ( 元素 )”. 1.Thales, the famous Greek philosopher, died when he was about _______________.
2.The meaning of the underlined word “complicated” in the last paragraph is “ ____________”.
3.After reading the passage, we can be sure that________________.

It is really hard to say which is better than the other,city life or rural life.__66__ Living in a city,people have certain advantages. First,people enjoy various entertainments,both foreign and domestic. Second,there are more cultural activities in a city. Third,city people gain access to better information service and educational facilities.__67__The overcrowded population,traffic jam,housing problem,industrial pollution and other issues may result in depression,nervousness and diseases. Life in the village and on the farm is very different from life in the city. Living in the country,people can enjoy living in pure nature.__68__But rural life may not be that perfect. People usually lack cultural activities. They are relatively ill informed.__69__And people miss some golden opportunities of making a fortune. Opportunities for bright young people are greater in cities,so the chances of their children being admitted to colleges are slim. Obviously,whatever life they lead,people can never feel perfectly satisfied,for conveniences and inconveniences always coexist. People wish that they could enjoy the pleasures of both lives. With the rapid economic development,nowadays city people can relax themselves in the country during vacation.__70__
E.However,problems exist. F.And country people have chances to experience city lifestyle when they come to cities. G.City life is obviously much more comfortable.
