Protection against fire is one kind of insurance. Large numbers of people pay small sums of money to an insurance pany. Although thousands of people have paid for fire insurance, only a few will lose their homes by fire. The insurance pany will pay for these homes out of the small sums of money it has collected.The first modern fire insurance pany was formed in London, England, in the 1760s. A great fire had just destroyed most of the city, and people wanted protection against further losses. The first pany grew rapidly. Soon other panies were founded in other areas.Benjamin Franklin helped form the first fire insurance pany in America in 1752, and then a new kind of insurance for farmers was suggested. The new insurance would provide protection against the loss of crops from storms.Later on another new insurance pany was started in America. This pany, which offered life insurance, collected small sums of money regularly from many different men. If a man died, his family was given a large sum of money.Over the years, insurance panies have offered new kinds of insurance protection. The new kinds of insurance cover losses from such accidents as car and plane crashes. Today, most people have some kind of insurance.21Who helped set up the first pany in America?A.

Perhaps the most interesting has been the division of people into tribes (zu in Chinese). The pains of the yi zu, or the ant tribe, have been wellknown recent graduates from outside the main cities who move to urban areas, live cheaply and work hard, often in lowpaid jobs. Perhaps less wellknown are the ken lao zu, the bitetheold tribe, those between 25 and 35 who are out of work, still at home and depending pletely on Mum and Dad. Many of the tribes, inevitably (必然地), are made up of people looking for love. There is the jia wan zu, the marrythebowl tribe. These are young women searching for the most stable husbands, the ones who hold government jobs. The shan hun zu, or lighteningmarriage tribe, marry fast and sometimes separate faster. They should not be confused with the yin hun zu, the hiddenmarriage tribe. These are women in their 20s who hide the fact that they are married. And if you can only afford a postage stamp of an apartment, youre probably a member of the wo ju zu, the snailhouse tribe.You can belong to more than one tribe. Most members of the ant tribe also belong to the ben ben zu, the rushrush tribe, to which, in fact, most urban Chinese belong. All that rushing around can create a lot of anger, leading to the nie nie zu, the crushcrush tribe, so named because they go into supermarkets and take out their anger by standing in the passages crushing packets of instant noodles.Another famous one is the yue guang zu, or moonlight tribe, so named because the Chinese characters for “moonlight” sound the same as the phrase “spend all your monthly salary”. Their parents save every coin, but life for these young people is just to spend, spend and spend.25Who probably belong to the ant tribe?A. Graduates in their 20s.B. Young women looking for love. C. People between 25 and 35.D. Graduates from the countryside.答案与解析D从第二段第一句蚁族的定义可以看出，蚁族主要是刚刚毕业的学生，没有什么经济基础，融入一个新的大城市，消费得少，工作卖力。四个选项中，D项最符合。26If you live on your parents, you are a member of _.A. the bitetheold tribeB. the ant tribeC. the marrythebowl tribeD. the snailhouse tribe答案与解析A文章第二段第二句介绍了啃老族。他们年龄在25岁到35岁之间，没有工作，依然在家依靠父母吃住。A项正确。27Most young people in the big city have to _.A. depend pletely on Mum and Dad B. rush around to make a livingC. hide the fact that they are marriedD. spend all their monthly salary答案与解析B从文章第四段可知，多数蚁族成员和大城市的年轻人属于奔奔族。他们整天在拥挤的城市中奔波。B项正确。28Whats the best title for the passage?A. Chinese recent societyB. Chinas most famous tribeC. Chinas new tribesD. The young people in cities答案与解析C文章讲述了由于生活环境等问题，衍生出各种各样的新型“民族”的社会现象。用C项作标题最恰当。CI live in Hollywood. You may think people in such an attractive, funfilled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in mon. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more longlasting emotion. Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to exciting parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells “happiness”. But in memoir (回忆录) after memoir, celebrities reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children, and longtime loneliness.The way people hold on to the belief that a funfilled, painfree life equates happiness actually decreases their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness, then pain must be equated with unhappiness. But, in fact, the opposite is true. More times than not, things that lead to happiness involve some pain.As a result, many people avoid the very efforts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious mitment, chant able work and selfimprovement.29According to the passage, “fun activities” _.A. are the things we do before we find happinessB. could provide longlast positive effectsC. will lead us to the true happinessD. may help us relax and forget our problems sometimes答案与解析D从第二段的句子“Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh.”可知快乐的活动可以帮助我们放松，有时忘记我们的问题，D项正确。30In the authors opinion, those Hollywood stars _.A. possess happiness because they are rich and famousB. experience almost all kinds of happy thingsC. tell us happiness isnt equal to fun using their own storiesD. have to suffer a lot before they bee successful答案与解析C从第三段的句子“I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun.”可知，好莱坞明星的故事告诉我们幸福不等于快乐。C项正确。31It is difficult for people to find real happiness because _.A. they believe happiness is the fun life without painB. they find pain equals unhappinessC. they fear to lose what they already have in lifeD. They are afraid all their efforts were in vain答案与解析A从第四段的句子“The way people hold on to the belief that a funfilled, painfree life equates happiness actually decreases their chances of ever attaining real happiness.”可知，人们认为幸福就是没有痛苦的快乐，这减少了人们获得幸福的可能性。A项正确。32The main purpose of the text is to _.A. describe the difference between happiness and funB. show the true meaning of happinessC. encourage people to pursue fun activitiesD. advise people to find their real life答案与解析B从全篇文章和最后一段的句子“As a result, many people avoid the very efforts that are the source of true happiness.”可知作者是想告诉我们真正的幸福是什么。B项正确。DAre you looking for some new and exciting places to take your kids to?
