Debbie is an accountant① in a large company in the centre of London.
I need to be in my office by② nine o’clock so I usually get up at seven o’clock. I travel to work on “the tube③”. That’s what people call the underground in London④. It takes about fifty minutes.⑤ Usually, it’s so crowded⑥ that I can’t find anywhere to sit⑦.I just stand. I’m always tired⑧ before I arrive at work. I don’t like the underground!

我需要在9点钟前赶到办公室，所以我通常7点钟起床。我乘地铁上班。那就是人们所说的伦敦地铁。乘地铁大约需要50分钟。通常地铁很拥挤，以至于我很难找到座位。我只好站着。在到办公室之前，我总是感到很疲倦。我不喜欢乘地铁！
每天上午我要计算数字，核对账目。午饭总是很简单，我常在附近的三明治店买个三明治，或只吃些饼干，喝杯咖啡。然后下午我返回办公室处理文字资料。

几乎每个周末我都去看电影。有时，如果预报天气好的话，我会和朋友们开车去乡下度周末。我们喜欢去那些远离城市、风光秀丽、幽静的地方，喜欢在没有商店、人群、地铁的地方漫步。那里的新鲜空气对肺部有好处，我喜欢新鲜的空气。

Paul lives in a small village in the north of England.
I usually get up at four o’clock every morning when it’s still dark. I live and work on the farm so I don’t need to travel. After a big breakfast in my house, I walk out of the front door and I’m already at work.
There are many things to do on the farm all day. We don’t have the same work hours that office workers in the city have. We do jobs when they need to be done and that could be early in the morning or late at night. I have cows, sheep, pigs and chickens on my farm. I have to make sure they are free of sickness. I also grow wheat and vegetables so there are many things to look after.

保罗住在英格兰北部的一个小村庄。
我通常凌晨4点天还黑着的时候就起床。我在农场生活、工作，不用乘车上下班。在家里饱餐一顿早饭之后，我走出前门，开始一天的工作。
在农场整天都有很多事要做。我们的工作时间和在城市办公室工作的人们不同，我们的工作时间依需要而定，可能在一大早，也可能是在半夜。我的农场里有牛、羊、猪、鸡，我必须确保它们不生病。我也种麦子和蔬菜，所以我有很多事情需要料理。
In the evening, I like to play with my children. I have two children, a boy and a girl. They are six and eight years old. I also like to study. Right now I am studying Chinese by distance learning. I am very interested in China and it’s my dream to see the Great Wall one day.
I love movies. My wife calls me a “movie fan”. But there isn’t a cinema in my village

so I don’t get the chance to go very often. I go about twice a year, usually when I go to London with my family. We take a weekend break there when I am not too busy on the farm. My wife loves looking in the clothes shops and I like all the crowds and the noise. I also like to buy a few cigars. Unfortunately， my wife isn’t as fond of them as I am. My son and daughter love to ride on London’s red buses and they especially love to go on the tube！

[第9～10段译文]
晚上我喜欢和孩子们一块儿玩。我有两个孩子，一男一女，一个6岁，一个8岁。我也喜欢学习。目前我正在通过远程教育学习汉语。我对中国很感兴趣。我一直梦想着有一天能亲眼看看长城。
我喜欢电影。妻子称我为影迷。但是我们村没有电影院，所以我没有机会经常去看电影。我一年大约看两次电影，通常是在和家人去伦敦的时候。只要农场活不太多，我们会抓住机会度周末。我妻子喜欢逛服装店，我喜欢看看人群、听听城市的嘈杂声。我还喜欢买几支雪茄烟。遗憾的是，我妻子不像我那样喜欢它们。我的儿子和女儿喜欢乘坐伦敦的红色公共汽车游览观光，而且他们特别喜欢乘地铁！

语篇解读：本文介绍了Pressure小镇和Pleasure小镇两种不同的生活方式，从而说明两个小镇的人们只有互相取长补短，才会拥有真正健康的生活方式。
1．A.connect B．keep
C．keep out D．prevent
解析：选C 居民们在两个小镇之间建起了墙以阻挡来自另一个小镇的影响。connect表示“连接”，与文意不符，可排除。注意此处的from并非固定短语keep ... from ...或prevent ... from ... 中的from，据此可排除B、D两项。keep out指“把……挡在外面”，符合语境。
2．A.everyone B．anyone
C．nobody D．somebody
解析：选A 从下文“There was violent competition in every aspect of life.”及所举的例子可以看出，竞争无处不在，人人都参与竞争。
3．A.have B．like
C．compete D．try
解析：选C 单从搭配来看，四个选项均可与动词不定式结构搭配。但考虑语境可发现，这里的动词不定式表目的，排除A、B

两项。因为这是一个处处充满竞争的小镇，所以女人们生孩子时也“竞争谁的孩子哭声最大”，故排除try。
4．A.health B．joy
C．children D．wealth
解析：选D 从下文的“busy making money”可推断出，这个镇上的人们以财富的多少作为衡量成功的标准。
5．A.seldom B．always
C．hardly D．sometimes
解析：选B 从下文“Some young people couldn’t bear the intensity ...”来看，人们总是忙于挣钱。always“总是”，与语意相符。seldom“很少”；hardly“几乎不”；sometimes“有时”。
6．A.much time B．no reason
C．many reasons D．no time
解析：选D 从上文的描述可知，人们总是忙于挣钱，没有时间放松。
7．A.Meanwhile B．Otherwise
C．Therefore D．Besides
解析：选A meanwhile“与此同时”；otherwise“否则的话”；therefore“因此”；besides“而且，此外”。文章描述的是同一时期两个小镇的不同状态，根据上下文语境应选A项。
8．A.pleasure B．pressure
C．work D．happiness
解析：选B 从下文的描述可以看出，与Pressure小镇不同，Pleasure小镇是个完全没有压力的小镇。
9．A.must B．need
C．could D．dare
解析：选C 此处表示“人们可以做任何他们想做的事情”。could“可以，能够”。
10．A.know B．find
C．recognise D．care
解析：选D 在学校，老师们不在乎学生来不来上学。care“关心，在乎”。
11．A.in the morning B．in the evening
C．all day long D．in the afternoon
解析：选C 本段是描述Pleasure小镇人人慵懒散漫的样子。工人们可能整天闲坐着喝咖啡，什么也不做。all day long意为“一整天”。
12．A.Thanks to B．Regardless of
C．Owe to D．According to

解析：选A 从下文来看，他们不担心失去工作是由于没有规章制度。thanks to“由于，幸亏”，符合语境。regardless of“不管，不顾”；according to“根据”；owe to无法表示“由于”，应使用owing to。
13．A.money B．time
C．pleasure D．stress
解析：选C 这句话使用了强调句型。matter在此处作动词，指“要紧，有关系”。对Pleasure小镇上的人来说，快乐(pleasure)是最重要的。
14．A.strongest B．slightest
C．most D．smallest
解析：选B 从上文的描述及下文来看，Pleasure小镇上的人只注重追求快乐，全然没有一点儿要求进步的想法。strongest“最强大的”；slightest“最少量的”；most“最多的”；smallest“最小的”。
15．A.old B．new
C．best D．same
解析：选A Pleasure小镇上的人没有上进心，所以，按照逻辑来推断，他们所用的电脑应该是Pressure小镇的人淘汰下来的。
16．A.books B．work
C．money D．drugs
解析：选D be addicted to“对……上瘾”。通过上文的描述可以判断，Pleasure小镇的人不愿工作，不愿读书，不爱赚钱，据此可排除前三个选项。有些年轻人因为感觉生活没有意义而染上吸毒的恶习。
17．A.pressure B．life
C．pleasure D．money
解析：选B 上文描述的是两个小镇的人截然相反的生活方式。结合下一句话中出现的life一词可确定本题的答案。
18．A.improved B．failed
C．succeeded D．lived
解析：选B 从上文看，两个小镇的年轻人或游走在崩溃的边缘，或生活很茫然，几近失败。本句中的“But”标志着语意的转折。句意应理解为：但是，就在两个小镇的生活完全失败之前，一位名叫“理智”的圣人来到这里。
19．A.content B．surprised
C．patient D．angry
解析：选A be content with“对……感到满意”；be surprised with“对……感到吃惊”；be patient with“对……有耐心”；be angry with“因……而生气”。结合前文的描述，此处应理解为“Pressure小镇的人开始学着对自己所拥有的东西感到满足”，由此确定应选A项。

20．A.took up B．put down
C．pulled down D．set up
