1．Canadian short story writer Alice Munro won the Nobel Prize for Literature．Eighty-two-year-old Munro is only the 13th woman to win the 112-year-old prize．
Munro didn't publish her first collection of short stories until she was 37 years old，but her stories have always been well-received．Lots of her stories share similar themes and characters，but each story has its own twists and turns．
Even though she's won Canada's most famous literary award，the Giller Prize，twice，winning the Nobel Prize for Literature is the cherry on top of Munro's career．"It brings this incredible recognition，both of her and her career，and of the dedication to the short story，" said one person．
Along with the well-respected title comes 1.3 million dollars．Munro said everything was "so surprising and wonderful" and that she was "dazed by all the attention and affection that has been coming my way．"
Munro knew she was in the running--she was named the second-most likely person to win this year's prize，after Haruki Murakami （村上春樹）of Japan--but she never thought that she would win．
Munro's win also represents the long way Canadian writers have come．"When I began writing there was a very small community of Canadian writers and little attention was paid by the world．Now Canadian writers are read，admired and respected around the globe，" Munro said on Thursday．
She is technically not the first Canadian to win the Nobel Prize for Literature，but many like to think that she is．In 1976 Saul Bellow，who was born in Quebec but moved to Chicago when he was still a child，won the prize．Even though he was born in Canada，he is mostly considered to be an American writer．
"This is a win for us all．Canadians，by our very nature，are not very nationalistic，" said Geoffrey Taylor．"But things like this suddenly make you want to find a flag．"
She wasn't sure if she would keep writing if she won the prize，saying that it would be "nice to go out with a bang．But this may change my mind．"

2．A dense wave of smog began in the Chinese city of Harbin and the surrounding Heilongjiang，Jilin，and Liaoning Provinces on 20 October 2013．Unseasonably warm temperatures with very little wind across northeastern China coincided with the smoke from local farmers' burning straws and the start-up of Harbin's coal-powered central heating system．
Record densities of fine particulates（微粒）were measured in the city．In Harbin，the levels of PM2.5 （particulate matter） rise to 1，000 micrograms per cubic meter，worse than Beijing's historic highs．Visibility was reduced to below 50 m in parts of Harbin，and below 500 m in most of the neighbouring Jilin Province．On Fa Yuen Street in Harbin，visibility of less than 5 m was reported．The smog reduced after October 23，2013 and completely broke up on October 28，2013 by the first local snow and icy rain due to a cold front moving in from Russia．
Harbin lies in the north of China where winter temperatures can drop to -40℃，demanding a six-month heating season．Daily particulate levels of more than 40 times the World Health Organization recommended maximum level were reported in parts of Harbin．The smog remained till 23 October，when almost all monitoring stations in Heilongjiang，Jilin，and Liaoning Provinces reported readings above 200μg/m3for PM2.5．PM2.5 is the amount of particulate matter less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter in the air，with the WHO recommending a maximum 24-hour mean （平均值） of 25 micrograms per cubic meter （μg/m3）．On the morning of 25 October，PM2.5 measurements in Harbin had fallen to an average of 123μg/m3．
All highways in the surrounding Heilongjiang Province were closed．In Harbin，all primary and middle schools were closed for three days and authorities stopped flights at the airports．Hospitals reported a 23 percent increase in admissions for breathing problems．However，this smog will have no influence on Harbin Ice Festival events later in December 2013．
Air pollution in Chinese cities is of increasing concern to China's leadership．Particulates in the air can affect human health and also have influences on climate and rainfall．Pollution from the burning of coal has reduced life expectancy by 5.5 years in the north of China，as a result of heart and lung diseases．
（1）One cause of the heavy smog in the northeastern Chinese cities may be．
A．the lasting cold weather
B．farmers' burning of forests
C．too much strong wind
D．the start-up of heating system
（2）One serious influence of the heavy smog was that．
A．Harbin Ice Festival would be cancelled
B．highways in Heilongjiang were free of charge
C．a(chǎn)ll flights at the airport were cancelled
D．doctors in hospitals were kept from working
（3）The harmful smog was most serious on．
A．October 20
B．October 23
C．October 25
D．October 28
（4）What measure might be practical to reduce the happening of heavy smog？
A．Forbidding people to own their private cars．
B．Advocating people having one meal a day．
C．Using natural gas to cook instead of coal．
D．Encouraging family's coal-fired heating．組卷：0引用：1難度：0.4 -
3．Sex prejudices are based on and justified by the ideology（意識形態(tài)） that biology is destiny．According to this ideology，basic biological and psychological differences exist between the sexes．These differences require each sex to play a separate role in social life．Women are the weaker sex both physically and emotionally．Thus，they are naturally suited，much more so than men，to the performance of domestic（家庭的） duties．A woman's place，under normal circumstances，is within the protective environment of the home．Nature has determined that women play caretaker roles，such as wife and mother and homemaker．On the other hand，men are best suited to go out into the competitive world of work and politics，where serious responsibilities must be taken on．Men are to be the providers；women and children are "dependents"．
The ideology also holds that women who wish to work outside the household should naturally fill these jobs that are in line with the special capabilities of their sex．It is appropriate for women，not men，to be employed as nurses，social workers，elementary school teachers，house-hold helpers，clerks and secretaries．These positions are simply an extension of women's domestic role．Informal distinctions between "women's work" and "men's work" in the labor force，according to the ideology，are simply a functional reflection of the basic differences between the sexes．
Finally，the ideology suggests that nature has worked her will in another significant way．For the human species to survive over time，its members must regularly reproduce．Thus，women must，whether at home or in the labor force，make the most of their physical appearances．
So goes the ideology．It is，of course，not true that basic biological and psychological differences between the sexes require each to play sex-defined roles in social life．There is enough evidence that sex roles vary from society to society，and those role differences that do exist are largely learned．
But to the degree people actually believe that biology is destiny and that nature intended for men and women to make different contributions to society，sex-defined roles will be seen as totally acceptable．
（1）According to the biology-is-destiny ideology，women．
A．cannot compete with men in any field
B．a(chǎn)re suited more to domestic jobs than men
C．a(chǎn)re sensitive enough to be a good caretaker
D．a(chǎn)re too weak to do any agricultural work at all
（2）Those who have prejudices against women think that．
A．women shouldn't go out for work
B．women should earn money to add the family income
C．women going out for work should only do "women's work"
D．women should take jobs to drill the special capabilities of the sex
（3）The author thinks that the positions women hold outside．
A．a(chǎn)re determined by what they are better suited to
B．grow out of their household responsibilities
C．represent their breakthrough of sex discrimination
D．a(chǎn)re physically and emotionally suitable to them
（4）What does the underlined sentence imply？
A．Sex roles are socially determined
B．Sex roles are emotionally and physically determined
C．Sex roles are biologically and psychologically determined
D．Sex roles are determined by education people take組卷：0引用：1難度：0.4

8．One day I pushed my cousin Li Dong in wheelchair on an especial narrow sidewalk．We struggled along with one wheel on the sidewalk or the other on the road．Suddenly，a man riding his motorcycle past us rapidly，missing Li Dong by several inch．Immediately，he turned round，stopped his motorcycle and came over．We were worried she would blame us for have stood in his way．To our surprise，he said nothing at all and helped out push the wheelchair until we reached a slightly wider sidewalk．Then he left after we could say thanks to him．We were leaving ashamed of what we thought．
