13．In most cases fear is a healthy reaction to a dangerous situation．But sometimes fear can be so （1）C，so unbearable，that it influences on normal living．That is what happened to me driving cross-country last summer．
I'd agreed to help my brother，Mac，move to California．He would drive a rental （2）Band I would follow him in his car．We figured it would be a （3）Atrip，with only four or five motel stops along the way．
Living and working in Georgia for most of my life，I did not have a great deal of long-distance （4）D experience．Looking back on it today，I can see that I'd always felt quite （5）C when driving over small bridges and along hilly highways．And as I was getting ready for the trip I had a vague （6）B about the steep mountain roads that lay ahead．But I thought I would get used to them．
At the first night，I mentioned my feelings to Mac，who is the practical sort．"Oh，that's nothing，"he said （7）A．"Lots of people hate driving on mountain roads and high bridges．Just turn up the （8）D on your radio and focus on that．Keep your mind （9）C．"
I gave him a weak smile，but I couldn't drive away the （10）B I had about the high driving ahead．The more I tried not to think about it，the more my mind kept going back to that （11）A feeling of panic I had at the beginning of the journey．If I could just close my eyes and （12）D，I thought，a good night's sleep would drive the fear away．
I kept closing the gap between my car and my brother's truck，moving （13）D behind him like a frightened sheep following a shepherd（牧羊人）．I could see Mac watching me in his rearview mirror，and that night at supper，he said，"Leigh，you should keep（14）C distance．You're much too close for these mountain roads．"He （15）D my face for a moment，then added，"Tomorrow will be the last day of high driving．You know there's nothing to be afraid of．"

8．Westminster Abbey，the gothic church，stands in the heart of modern London overlooking the River Thames and Houses of Parliament．It started as a small monastery（修道院），（33）founded （found） in the year 960by King Edgar，but soon became one of the most important churches in the kingdom．
King Edgar was the first monarch（34）to be buried （bury） there in 1065．In the mid 13th Century，King Henry III decided to rebuild it as a great gothic cathedral to rival（與…相匹敵）（35）those in France．
All monarchs have been crowned there（36）since William the Conqueror in 1066，and many monarchs have married in the Abbey，（37）most recently（recently） Prince William and Catherine Middleton．
But Westminster Abbey isn't just about royalty．Many of the greatest people in British history are buried or commemorated there-artists，scientists，thinkers-there isn't even a"poet's corner"built up（38）around the grave of 14th-century poet Geoffrey Chaucer．
Westminster Abbey tells the story of ordinary British people too．Parts of the Abbey were destroyed in booming raids（空襲）during World War II（39）but services went on throughout the war．On May 8，1945，the V-E（Victory in Europe）Day，a thanksgiving service was held there．Westminster Abbey stood for courage and British spirit．
（40）Even if/Even though you are not a Christian，it is impossible not to feel a sense of something otherworldly（超脫塵俗地） when you enter Westminster Abbey-and that goes for tourists，ordinary Londoners，or students getting ready for another Friday at school．

"This figure suggests mothers occupy an important place in most participants'mind．Yet，many people still find it'embarrassing'to express their affection，"the survey's organizer said．
As to the form of celebration on Mother's Day，67percent of participants said they would prepare some gifts，with 70percent saying that they would spend no more than 500yuan，while 51percent said they planned to phone their mother because they would either too busy at work or be away from home．

3．Here are two letters in WORKWORRIES，a column（欄） in a newspaper：
Dear Ariel，

I got a job offer from a high-tech company with a fairly satisfactory paycheck and benefits．Even the work environment is cool．But I heard that the job requires a lot of overtime and even weekends．I know it's important for newcomers to work hard to get their feet planted firmly on the ground，but I'm scared of the idea of having nearly no free time．I still need to find a girlfriend．So，shall I accept the job or give it up for another one with much less pay and more freedom？
Amoretto
Dear Amoretto，
I have two things to say：First，you're lucky to have such an excellent offer，especially at a time when so many qualified（勝任的）people are struggling to find any work at all； and second，you can't figure out your work-life balance until you're actually working．
Take the job．You'll be learning，doing interesting things，working in a cool environment，and making money．If you're given a contract （合同），make sure you understand the terms before you sign．Ask your boss how many hours a week you're expected to work．If they tell you a number that is much lower than what you find once you're working，you'll be in a better position to talk to them about it．
Give your wor k 100 percent．Work energetically and efficiently．If you're dedicated（敬業(yè)的）and focused，you might accomplish more than your co-workers in less time．Showing yourself to be a productive and talented worker for the beginning will give you more bargaining power．Finally，remember that taking a job doesn't have to be a life commitment．Try to give it at least a year （two is better）．If you're really miserable after that time，look for another job that will give you more freedom．By then，you'll have workplace experience，bosses and colleagues who can speak positively about your work and some savings．Good luck!
Ariel
60．From Amoretto's letter，we know that heB．
A．has been working for a long time         
B．is likely a green hand
C．expects to change his job               
D．is quite satisfied with the job．
61．How can a man arrange his work-life balance according to Ariel？D
A．By taking a training course．                 
B．By asking people for advice．
C．By comparing with others．                
D．Through his own work experience
62．All of the following are advised byArial EXCEPTC．
A．understanding the terms before signing
B．working hard and efficiently
C．getting a better position                    
D．doing the job at least a year
63．What does Ariel advise to do in the reply？A
A．Take the job offered．                         
B．Give up and find a new job．
C．Depend on your feeling．
