1、Model Test1 不惊扰僧人，却替他们守护庙宇。作为报酬，和尚把一些可吃的东西放在庙门前。每天傍晚，夕阳染红小半个天空，虎们成群地走到庙门口，吃了东西，跳跃而去。庙门大开，僧人们安然在庙内做他们的日课，也没有谁出去看虎怎样吃东西，即使偶尔有一二和尚立在门前，虎们亦视为平常的事情，把他们看做熟人，不去惊动，却斯斯文文地吃完走开。如果看不见僧人，虎就发出几声长啸，随着几阵风飞腾而去。 When the Romantic Movement was still in its first fervor, it was a common matter of debate whether people
2、 should marry for love or for money. The young people concerned usually favored love, and their parents usually favored money. In the novels of the period, the dilemma was felicitously solved by the discovery, on the last page, that the apparently penniless heroine was really a great heiress. But in
3、 real life young men who hoped for this denouement were apt to be disappointed. Prudent parents, while admitting that their daughters should marry for love, took care that all the young men they met should be rich. This method was sometimes very successful; it was adopted, for example, by my materna
4、l grandfather, who had a large number of romantic daughters, none of whom married badly. In these days of psychology the matter no longer looks so simple as it did eighty years ago. We realize now that money may be the cause, or part of the cause, of quite genuine love; of this there are notable exa
5、mples in history. Model Test 2 光绪二十六年，八国联军攻占北京。慈禧太后弃城而走，一直逃到西安。和谈开始后，她并未马上返回北京。起初，外国列强的要求里面有一项是让慈禧太后退位，由光绪帝重新执掌朝廷。不过，在与李鸿章多次会谈后，他们放弃了这一要求。第二年正式签署和约，随后过了一个月慈禧才终于从西安动身。她对外国人万分惧怕，正像她对国人无比傲慢一样。她在河南停留了很长一段时间，到了保定又逗留多日，好不容易才回到北京。据野史记载，在这漫长的旅途中还发生了一件趣事。一位地方官员送给慈禧一只猴子，她颇为高兴，竟下旨给那只猴子穿黄马褂。后来太监报告说，有的官员发出了“人不如猴
6、”的感慨，慈禧这才发现自己的决定有些荒唐，于是又下旨给随行官员每人一件黄马褂。得到这殊荣之后，大家真不知道该感谢慈禧还是感谢那只猴子。 Sept.11 delivered both a shock and a surprisethe attack, and our response to itand we can argue forever over which mattered more. There has been so much talk of the goodness that erupted that day that we forget how unprepared we wer

We did not expect much from a generation that had spent its middle age examining all the ways it failed to measure up to the one that had come beforeall fat, no muscle, less a reason to the world than a bully, drunk on blessings taken for granted.It was tempting to say that Sept.11 changed
8、 all that, just as it is tempting to say that every hero needs a villain, and good needs evil as its grinding stone. But try looking a widow in the eye and talking about all the good that has come of this. It may not be a coincidence, but neither is it a partnership: good does not end evil, we owe n
9、o debt to demons and the attack did not make us better. It was an occasion to discover what we already were. “Maybe the purpose of all this,” New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliami said at a funeral for a friend, “is to find out America today is as strong as when we fought for our independence or when we
10、 fought for ourselves as a union to end slavery of as strong as our fathers and grandfathers who fought to rid the world of Nazism.” The terrorists, he argues, were counting on our cowardice. Theyve learned a lot about us since then. And so have we. Model Test 3 中国对香港的政策是“一国两制”，这个原则不仅对香港经济发展有利，而且和中国
11、本身的利益也是一致的。我们不想使在过渡时期无法正常行使其职能，恰恰相反，我们希望它能有效地管理香港的事务，中英联合声明和建造新机场的谅解备忘录就是最好的保证。至于1997年以后的，全国人民大会已通过了中华人民共和国香港特别行政区基本法。这个基本法就是最有利的保证。 The University of London is a nonsectarian, co-educational, government-supported institution, located in London, England. It was founded in 1836 to meet the needs of a
12、 growing middle class who desired nonsectarian education in the arts, science, or medicine. Up to that time, the existing universities of England had confined the awarding degrees generally to the members of the Church of England, and little emphasis had been placed on curriculum unrelated to theolo
13、gical studies. The university functioned as an examining body for other educational institutions until 1900 when it was reconstituted as a teaching as well as an examining institution. A distinctive feature of the university is its recognition or accreditation of a number of individual teachers in c

Today the institution is a vast system of colleges, institutes, and schools scattered throughout London and its environm

The present faculties include those of arts, economics and political science, and theology. The main university library contains over 800 000 volumes with a special collection of Shakespeare and
16、 Elizabethan literature. Each school or institute also has its own library.Model Test 4 在交叉路口转弯的时候，我的脚踏车把一位陌生先生的右脚踝压伤了。这位先生一手牵扯着一个刚会走路模样的小男孩，一手牵着一个步履蹒跚的老中风病患者。本来我可以安全避闪。在我惊魂未定，讷讷不知所措的时候，那位先生已牵着小男孩和老者慢慢离去，我愣愣地目送他们，三个脚步迟缓的背景构成一幅感人的画面。我有搁下车子跟上去帮助那位先生的冲动。可是，我一直没有做；我发觉小孩和老者好像那位先生肩上的两头担子，再艰苦他也不肯放下任何一边的。 But all this would count nothing had not the orange such delightful qualities of taste. I dare not let myself go upon this subject. I am a slave
