第1题:

Books are to mankind what memory is to the individual. They contain the history of our race, the discoveries we have made, the accumulated knowledge and experience of ages.They picture for us the marvels and beauties of nature, help us out of difficulty, comfort us in sorrow, change hours of tiredness into moments of delight, fill our minds with good ideas and happy thoughts, and lift us out of and above ourselves. And also, books can help transport us to mountains or the seashore, and visit the most beautiful parts of the earth, without fatigue, inconvenience, or expense. In a sense they give us an even more vivid idea than the actual reality. So, precious and priceless are the blessings which the books scatter around our daily paths.We walk, in imagination, with noblest spirits, through the most fascinating regions.

书籍之于人类犹如记忆之于个人。它们记载了我们人类的历史和迄今的发现,还有各个时代积累下来的知识和经验;它们向我们描述出自然界的奇妙和美丽。当我们身处困境时,它们给我们帮助;当我们受难哀伤时,它们给我们以慰藉;当我们困倦疲惫时,它们让我们快乐起来。书籍还能充实我们的头脑,使其充满美好,快乐的思想,帮助我们走出和超越自我。此外,无需付出体力和财力,书籍还能方便的把我们带到山上或海边,去观看地球上最美丽的部分。从某种程度上来说,书籍带给我们的生动想法比现实更加美好。所以书籍给我们日常生活轨迹中播种的快乐是珍贵无价的。我们能够在想象中与最高贵的人们同行,走过极乐的仙境

第6题:

D

Modcm inventions have speeded up people’s lives amazingly. Motor-cars cover a bundred miles in little more than an hour. Aireraft cross the world a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending. Every ycar motor-cars are produced which go even faster each new computer boasts(吹嘘)of saving preeious seconds in handling tasks.

All this saves timc, but at a prick.When we lose or gain half a day in speeding aeross the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so.

Mobile phones also to dange according to some seientists; too much uss may thesmit h bul radiation into our brains, a we do not like to think about.

Howave, what do we do with the time we have saved?Certainly not or so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time. Pcrhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imavination take us into another world.

There was a time when some people’s lives were devotcd simply to the cultivation of the land or the eare of eattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives wenl on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so ,we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faeed;:they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modem machinery has freed peope fre that primitive existcnee.
