Scotland:A Land of Wisdom
In the 1740s,the famous French philosopher Voltaire said“We look to Scotland for all our ideas of civilization.”That’s not a bad advertisement for any country when it comes to attracting people to search for a first-class education.
According to the American author Arthur Herman,the Scots invented the modern world itself.He argues that Scottish thinkers and intellectuals worked out many of the most important ideas on which modern life depends-everything from the scientific method to market economics.Their ideas did not just spread among intellectuals,but to those people in business,government and the sciences who actually shaped the Western world.
It all started during the period that historians call the Scottish Enlightenment(启蒙运动),which is usually seen as taking place between the years 1740 and 1800.Before that,philosophy was mainly concemed with religion.For the thinkers of the Scottish Enlightenment,the proper study of humanity was mankind itself.
Their reasoning was practical.For the philosopher David Hume,humanity was the right subject for philosophy because we can examine human behavior and so find real evidence of how people think and feel.And from that we can make judgments about the societies we live in and make concrete suggestions about how they can be improved,for universal benefit.
Hume’s enquiry into the nature of knowledge laid the foundations for the scientific method-the pursuit of truth through experiment.His friend and fellow resident of Edinburgh,Adam Smith,famously applied the study of mankind to the ways in which mankind does business.Trade,he argued,was a form of infrmation.In pursuing our own interests through trading in markets,we all come to benefit each other.
Smith’s idea has dominated modern views of economics.It also has wide applications.He was one of the philosophers to point out that nations can become rich,free and powerful through peace,trade and invention.
Although the Scottish Enlightenment ended a long time ago,the ideas which evolved at that time still underpin(构成……的基础)our theories of human exchange and enquiry.It also exists in Scotland itself in an educational tradition that combines academic excellence with orientation(方向).
16.Scotland is the right place to receive a first-class education.
A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned
17.According to Arthur Herman,the Scots developed many important ideas which modern life depends on.
A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned
18.Philosophers had come to know the importance of studying humanity even before the Scottish Enlightenment took place.
A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned
19.David Hume was the first philosopher to study mankind.
A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned
20.Smith’s idea has extensive applications.
A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned
21.Our current theories of human exchange and enquiry have nothing to do with the ideas developed during the Scottish Enlightenment.
A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned
22.Smith died in 1800.
A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned

Ceasing to Wear Ties
1 It’s useless.It’s dirty.It spreads disease.That’s why the British Medical Association in the UK recently called for hospital doctors to stop wearing ties.
2 That leads to another question.Why does anyone wear a tie?Ties serve no purpose.They do not cover any part of your body and keep you warm.They always seem to get covered in food stains.Perhaps that is the purpose of the tie.It lets everyone know what you just ate.
3 Ties have an odd history.Soldiers from Croatia,in Eastern Europe,served as mercenaries(雇佣军)in various conflicts in the 17th century.They were identified by brightly colored pieces of silk worn around the neck.Known as cravats(围巾),these became a popular fashion item in France and evertually evolved into the tie.
4 It’s an interesting story,but it doesn’t tell us why men want to put useless pieces of cloth or silk around their necks.The answer seems to be about identification(身份证明).In the 19th-century Britain,ties were used by universities,military regiments(团),sports clubs,schools and gentleman’s clubs.Each tie was in a particular set of colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization.Wearing ties was also the mark of Britain’s most powerful classes.That made the tie itself a symbol of power and respect.And that led it to be adopted by a much larger class-the business class.
5 You cannot wear a tie if you work with machinery.So wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used his brain to make a living,rather than his hands.It showed you were serious.It showed you were a professional.It meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one.It was just impossible to take seriously a man who did not wear a piece of colored silk around his neck.This is how millions of people came to wear ties across the world.
6 Is there a future for ties?The signs are not promising.Many political leaders,including British Prime Minister Tony Blair,now go without ties.
23.Paragraph 2 _______.
24.Paragraph 3 _______.
25.Paragraph 4 _______.
26.Paragraph 5 _______.
A.Origin of the tie
B.British ties
C.Uselessness of the tie
D.Old-fashioned ties
E.Role of the tie
F.Signs of a tieless era
27.The British Medical Association suggested that.
28.Ties were first worn by the Croatian soldiers.
29.People wore different ties in Britain in the 19th century to show that.
30.British Prime Minister Tony Blair is a man.
A.they were workmen
B.they wrere members of different organizations
C.hospital doctors stop wearing ties
D.who does not always wear a tie
E.who served as mercenaries in many conflicts in the 17th century
F.who does not want to live like a king

下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题。请根据短文内容，为每题确定1个最佳选项。
第一篇His Own Way to Express Love
Yesterday was our three-year anniversary.We didn’t do anything romantic;we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and the future.This was pretty much what I had expected.
Andy is an unromantic guy:no sweet words or roses.Smart as he is,he is a little bit shy expressing his love.In contrast,I am an outspoken(直言不讳)girl who likes to show her feelings directly.So needless to say,I often feel that he is insensitive.I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words.
I was in this sullen mood until I heard a beautiful sentence one day:“If one does not love you the way you like,it does not mean that he does not love you.”This simple but sensible sentence made me think about our happy days and recall his deep concern for me.
One cold winter night,I got a high fever.He hurried to my dormitory and took me to the hospital.He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks.After arrival,he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities(手续).When I was put on a drip(点滴),he told me interesting stories to make me happy.Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender(温柔的)voice,I had never felt so safe and comfortable.Gradually,I fell asleep.When I woke up 15 minutes later,he was still mumbling(咕哝地说)to me.He explained that if he had stopped talking I would have woken up.At that moment,I found love in his eyes.
Another time,I had a bad quarrel with my best friend.Although I knew it was my fault,I refused to admit it.I was very angry when he insisted I apologize to her.He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake,but this was what everyone should do.The next morning,I apologized to my friend and asked for her forgiveness.
My unromantic boyfriend cares about my health like my father,understands my like my mother and helps me like my elder brother.

B.Andy has his own way to express love.
