According to Greek mythology, Letto was driven by Hera, Zeus' wife, from land to land and at last Poseidon took pity on her and Brought the island of Delos out of water for her to live on. There she gave birth to the twins, Apollo and Artemis. Wearing a purple robe, Apollo usually sat in his bright eastern palace early in the morning and made ready to start his daily journey across the sky. During the day he drove his carriage of gold and ivory(象 牙), and brought light, life and love m the great world below. In the afternoon he came to the end of his journey in the far western sea and got on his golden boat to return to his eastern home. Apollo was the god of music and poetry. He could bring about all feelings, which are expressed in his noble songs. With his gold musical instrument and the sweet accents of his godlike voice he led the choir of the muses(音乐女神们) at Olympus.

On another occasion, he lost at a musical contest and turned the ears of the judge, King Midas, into those of an ass(驴子). Apollo stood for youthful and manly beauty. His golden hair, stately manner and air all combined to make him the admiration of the world. A beautiful girl, by the name of Clytle, was so fond of his beauty and glory that from dawn to dusk she knelt on the ground, her hands outstretched towards the sun god, and her eyes looked at his golden wheeled carriage racing across the blue sky.

D The right to pursue happiness is issued to us all with our birth, but no one seems quite sure what it is. A holy man in India may think that happiness is in himself. It is in needing nothing from outside himself. In wanting nothing, he lacks nothing. We westerners, however, are taught that the more we have from outside ourselves, the happier we will be, and then we are made to want. We are even told it is our duty to want. Advertising, one of our major industries, exists not to satisfy these de, sires but to create them--and to create them faster than any man's money in his pocket can satisfy them. Here, obviously someone is trying to buy the dream of happiness and spending millions upon millions every year in the attempt. Clearly the happiness-market is not running out of customers. I doubt the holy man's idea of happiness, ,and I doubt the dreams of the happiness-market, too. Whatever happiness may be, I believe, it is neither in having nothing nor in having more, but in changing--in changing the world and mankind into pure states. To change is to make efforts to deal with difficulties. As Yeats, a great Irish poet once put it, happiness we get for a lifetime depends on how high We choose our difficulties. Robert Frost, a great American poet, was thinking in almost the stone terms when he spoke of "the pleasure of taking pains." It is easy to understand. We even demand difficulty for the fun in our games. We demand it because without difficulty there can be no game. And a game is a way of making something hard for the fan of it. The rules of the game are man-made difficulties. When the player ruins the fun, he always does so by refusing to play by the roles. It is easier to win at chess if you are free, at your pleasure, to cast away all the rules, but the fun is in winning within the rules. The same is true to happiness. The buyers and sellers at the happiness-market seem to have lost their sense of the pleasure of difficulty. Heaven knows what they are playing, but it seems a dull game. And the Indian holy man seems dull to us, I suppose, because he seems to be refusing to play anything at all. The western weakness may be in the dreams that happiness can be bought while the eastern weakness may be in the idea that there is such a thing as perfect happiness in man himself. Both of them forget a basic fact: no difficulty, no happiness. 67. Who shares the same idea of happiness with the author.? A. The Indian holy man. B. The great Irish poet Yeats. C. Advertisers. D. The buyers and sellers at the happiness-market. 68. What does "happiness-market" mean in the second paragraph? A. It means a place in which people can buy brings happily. B. It means a market which lacks happy customers. C. It means a pure state for the world and mankind. D. It means a market where people try to buy happiness with money. 69. According to the passage, which of the following is right? A. The Indian holy man is much happier than westerners. B. The westerners understand happiness better than the Indian holy man. C. There is no fun without playing by the rules. D. Both the eastern weakness and western Weakness are for the same reason. 70. What does the author do in the fifth paragraph? A. He supports a point of view with an example. B. He argues against a point of view. C. He introduces a point of view. D. He tries to understand a point of view. 第二卷(非选择题，共两大题，35 分) 第五部分 任务型阅读(共 10 小题，每小题 1 分；满分 10 分) 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填上一个最恰当的单词。 注意：请将答案写在答题纸上。 Oh, the things that I should see if I had the power of sight for just three days! The fast day would be a busy one. I should call to me all my dear friends and look long into their faces, imprinting(刻上) upon my mind the outward evidences of the beauty that is within them, I should let my eyes rest, too, on the face of a baby, so that I could Catch a vision of the eager, innocent beauty which precedes the individual's consciousness of the conflicts which life develops. And I should like to look into the loyal, trusting eyes of my dogs--the serious, clever little Scottie, Darkie, and the strong, understanding Great Dane, Helga, whose warm, tender, and playful friendships are so comforting to me. On that busy first day I should also view the small simple things of my home. I want to see the warm colors in the carpets under my feet, the pictures on the walls, the lovely small furniture that transforms a house into home. My eyes would rest respectfully on the books in dot-raised type which I have read, but they would be more eagerly interested in the printed books which seeing people can read, for during the long night of my life the books I have read and those which have been read to me have built themselves into a great shining lighthouse, showing me the deepest channels of human life and the human spirit. In the afternoon of that first seeing day, I should take a long walk in the woods and intoxicate (使陶 醉) my eyes on the beauties of the world of Nature trying desperately to absorb in a few hours the vast brilliance which is presenting itself to those who can see. On the way home from my woodland trip, my path would lie close to a farm so that I might see the patient horses ploughing in the field and the peaceful content of men living close to the soil. And I should pray for the glory of a colorful sunset. When dusk had fallen, I should experience the double delight of being able to see by artificial light which the genius of man has created to extend the power of his sight when Nature brings darkness. In the night of that first day of sight, I should not be able to sleep, so full would be my mind of the memories of the day!

Different people have different opinions on it. My classmates held a discussion on it the other day. According to the discussion, there are two different opinions. Some students support the project wholeheartedly. They think Peking Opera can help promote Chinese culture because it has a long history and is rich in traditional culture. Besides, Pekiing Opera is a synthesis of different arts and has an elegant form of expression, which can help develop students' aesthetic ability. Others hold a different opinion. They think students should have some freedom to choose what to learn. If they are forced to learn, their learning interest can be damaged. They also argue that there are many local operas all over China. Different local operas can be taught in different areas to pass down Chinese traditional culture. I share the view of the second group. Besides their reasons, I also worry whether there are enough qualified teachers for the task. In addition, we have so many traditional arts in history that it's impossible to learn them all in classroom.
