He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life. He says our relation with others often bee clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But youll know him only when you ask to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stranger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesnt. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it. Since money is important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book. Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich, because you are a self-made man? Answer: The most surprising thing is why people give me so much respect. Im nothing. I dont know much. All I am is rich. People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In this book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society; to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the modern world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.36. According to the first paragraph, people havent realized _.A. how important money is in their day-to-day lifeB. how one spends money shows what is important to himC. that money is more important than their philosophy of lifeD. that their understanding of life is more important than money37. The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money _.A. is a good way to test your friendB. will do harm to your friendC. will strengthen your friendshipD. is a good way to break off your friendship38. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?A. He doesnt feel that he is well educatedB. He doesnt think he is a very important personC. He doesnt think being rich deserves so much attentionD. He doesnt consider himself to be very successful39. What does the professor want to explain in his book?A. Money is an end.B. Money is a means.C. Money is everything.D. Money is unimportant. （B）US President Barack Obama traveled to Oslo, Norway, to accept his Nobel Prize and give a speech about peace. But in skipping and canceling some of his scheduled appearances at the Nobel festivities, he unintentionally offended many Scandinavians.Most Nobel winners, for instance, sit for a lunch with the Norwegian King Harald V. Obama skipped it. Winners are also asked to take part in a press conference, enjoy a concert, and appear at a childrens event. Obama also reportedly passed up on these events.“In Norwegian culture, its very important to keep an agreement,” Norwegian public-relations expert Rune Morck-Wergeland told TheDailyBeast website. “Were religious about that, and Obamas actions have been clumsy. You just dont say no to an invitation from a European king. Maybe Obamas advisers are not very educated about European culture, but hes ing off as rude, even if he doesnt mean to.” A headline in the Norwegian daily Aftenposten called Obama “a bit arrogant（傲慢的）a bit bad”. The daily tabloid VG reported that 44 percent of Norwegians polled considered Obamas skipping lunch with the king “rude”, though 34 percent said it was acceptable.The Nobel Prize mittee, meanwhile, cut Obama some slack. He is, after all, a sitting president with two wars and an economic recession（经济衰退）to worry about. “We always knew that there were too many events in the program,” Geir Lundestad, secretary of the mittee, told the Guardian. “Obama has to govern the US and we were told early on that he could not mit to all of them.”40. Obama went to Norway in order to_.A. accept his Nobel PrizeB. have lunch with the Norwegian KingC. take part in a press conferenceD. enjoy a concert41. Who considered Obamas behavior rude?A.

Obama is forgivable because he doesnt mean to be rude.43. Obama skipped the lunch with the King because .A. he wasnt invitedB. he didnt respect the Norwegian cultureC. he was very arrogantD. he was too busy and had a lot to worry about （C）After an absence of thirty years, I decided to visit my old school again. I had expected to find changes, but not a pletely different building. As I walked up the school drive, I wondered for a moment if I had e to the right address. The dirty red brick houses had been swept away. In its place stood a bright, modern block. A huge expanse of glass extended (延展) across the face of the building, and in front, there was a well-kept lawn (草坪) where previously there had been “an untidy gravel (沙石) yard”.I was pleased to find that it was bread time and that the children were all in the playground. This would enable me to meet some members of staff. On entering the building, I was surprised to hear loud laughter ing from what appeared to be the masters mon room. I could not help remembering the teachers in my time, all dressed in black gowns (长袍) and high collars (领子). And above all, I recalled Mr Garston whom we had nicknamed “Mr Ghastly”, the headmaster who had iron discipline on staff and pupils alike. I knocked at the mon room door and was weled by a smiling young man who introduced himself to me as the headmaster. He was dressed casually in a sports jacket, and his cheerful manner, quickly dispelled (驱散) the image of Mr Ghastly. After I had explained who I was, the headmaster presented me to the teachers all of whom were a little younger than himself, and said he would take me round the school.Here the biggest surprise of all was in store for me. Gone were the heavy desks of old with their deeply carved names; gone too, were the dark classrooms with their ink stained, dark brown walls, and their raised platforms for the teachers. The rooms now were painted in bright colors, and the children, far from sitting straightin their places, seemed almost free to do as they liked. I looked with envy as I remembered how, as a child, I had looked at the blackboard hardly daring to whisper to my neighbor.44. The writer _.A. had no difficulty in recognizing his old schoolB. found it difficult to recognize his old schoolC. noticed that the building was still unfinishedD. was surprised to see an untidy gravel yard45. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. He had expected that the school had pletely changed.B. In the writers time, all the teachers were dressed in black gowns and high collars.C. There was a well-kept lawn in their school when he visited it.D. An untidy gravel yard had disappeared.46. “Mr Ghastly” must be _.A. the writers teacherB. a serious old manC. the strict headmaster D. a naughty boy47. From what is said in the passage it seems clear the writer _.A. disapproved of all the changes that had taken placeB. felt sorry for the children in the schoolC. was glad that the school was still the sameD. felt that conditions at the school had improved a lot2019-2020年高三上学期摸底考试英语试卷含答案Tim Burton attempts to work his gothic magic over one of the best loved stories of all timeLewis Carrolls Alices Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There.Alice, now 19, attends a party at a Victorian estate, only to find she is about to be proposed to by a rich suitor（求婚者）in front of hundreds of snooty（傲慢的）society types.
