Write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET. 互生最叫人纪念的是他做人的态度。他本来是一幅铜筋铁骨,黑皮肤衬着那一套大布之衣,看去像个乡下人。他什么苦都吃得,从不晓得享用,也像乡下人。他心里那一团火,也像乡下人。那一团火是热,是力,是光。他不爱多说话,但常常微笑;那微笑是自然的,温暖的。在他看,人是可以互相爱着的,除了一些成见已深,不愿打开窗户说亮话的。他对这些人却有些憎恶,不肯假借一点颜色。世界上只有能憎的人才能爱;爱憎没有定见,只是毫无作为的脚色。互生觉得青年成见还少,希望最多;所以愿意将自己的生命一滴不剩而献给他们,让爱的宗教在他们中间发芽滋长,让他们都走向新世界去。

填空题Among the celebrated pantheon of Hollywood royalty, few are as well-respected and universally adored as Gregory Peck. For more than fifty years, he has been a major presence in the theater, on television, and most importantly, on the big screen. (41)________________________As General MacArthur, Melville's Captain Ahab, and Atticus Finch, he has presented audiences with compelling stories of strength and masculinity. Eldred Gregory Peck was born on April 5,1916, in La Jolla, California. By the time he was six, his parents had divorced. For a number of years he lived with his maternal grandmother, but at the age of ten was sent to St. John's Military Academy in Los Angeles. The four years he spent there were important in forming his sense of personal discipline. After the Academy, he returned to live with his father, a local pharmacist, and to attend public high school. (42)________________________ There, his abilities were almost immediately recognized. In 1942, Peck made his debut on Broadway with The Morning Star. Though many of his early plays were doomed to short runs, it seemed clear that Peck was destined for something bigger. In 1944 that "something bigger" arrived in the form of his first two Hollywood roles, as Vladimir in Days of Glory and Father Francis Chisholm in The Keys of the Kingdom. (43)________________________This early success provided him the rare opportunity of working with the best directors in Hollywood. Over the next three years he appeared in Alfred Hitchcock's Spellbound (1945), King Vidor's Duel in the Sun (1946), and Elia Kazan's Gentleman's Agreement (1947). Despite concerns over public acceptance of the last one, a meditation on American anti Semitism, it surprised many by winning an Oscar for Best Picture and a nomination for Best Actor. This success seemed not only a validation of Peck's abilities as an artist but of his moral convictions as well. (44)________________________Tough and caring, he was the quintessential mid-century American man—the good-looking romantic lead across from Audrey Hepburn as well as the rugged World War Ⅱ bomber commander. For many, the actor and the characters he portrayed were inseparable; the authority of his passionate yet firm demeanor was attractive to post-war Americans who longed for a more stable time. (45)________________________ While continuing to act on television and in Hollywood throughout the 1980sand 1990s, Peck has focused much of his energy on spending time with his wife, children, and grandchildren. For Peck, life as a father and as a public figure have been inseparable; he was simultaneously a major voice against the Vietnam war, while remaining a patriotic supporter of his son who was fighting there. If years of breathing life into characters such as Captain Keith Mallory and General MacArthur taught him anything, it was that life during wartime was profoundly complex; and rarely has there been a time free from war or struggle. In his more than fifty films, Peck has continually attempted to investigate these complex struggles, and in doing so has created a library of stories that shed light on human possibility and social reality. [A] Though an amiable and fun-loving man at home, Peck's stern presence made him one of the screen's great patriarchs. [B] For many, Peck is a symbol of the American man at his best—a pillar of moral courage and a constant defender of traditional values. [C] During the 1960s and 1970s, Peck continued to challenge himself as an actor, appearing in thrillers, war films, westerns and in his best known film, To Kill A Mockingbird (1962). Based on the book by Harper Lee, To Kill A Mockingbird addresses problems of racism and moral justice in personal and powerful ways. As Atticus Finch, a lawyer in a small Southern town, Peck created a character that remains a great example of an individual's struggle for humanity within deeply inhumane conditions. It seems clear however, that the reason for Peck's constant assertion that To Kill A Mockingbird is his best ( and favorite) film, was the film's attention to the lives of children and the importance of family. [D] Gregory Peck passed away on June 12th, 2003, at the age of 87. [E] While Days of Glory was coolly received, his role as the taciturn Scottish missionary in The Keys of the Kingdom was a resounding triumph and brought him his first Oscar nomination for Best Actor. [F] After graduating, Peck enrolled at the University of California, Berkeley. Greatly influenced by his father's desires for him to be a doctor, Peck began as a premed student. By the time he was a senior, however, he found his real interests to be in writing and acting. Peck soon realized that he had a natural gift as both an expressive actor and a storyteller. After graduating, in 1939, he changed his name from Eldred to Gregory and moved to New York.[G] At 85, Peck turned his attention back to where he got his start, the stage. He traveled the country visiting small play houses and colleges, speaking about his life and experiences as a father, a celebrity, and as an actor.

Though hardly as unwelcome as death or taxes, college entrance
exams are just as inevitable and almost as dreaded by high school
students. As the testing dates loom for juniors and seniors for
the SAT (formerly called the Scholastic Assessment Test) and the American
College Test, or ACT, most students are looking for an edge, any edge, in the
competition. And as the number of homes with computers continues
to rise, test publishers and software developers have been quick to recognize a
growing niche. With the market for test preparation materials at all levels
estimated at $540 million annually, they have jumped on the tech bandwagon to
produce computerized tutorials that promise to boost scores.
(41){{B}}"We believe that it's important for a student to be prepared to
take the tests," notes Don Powers, a research scientist at the Educational
Testing Service in Princeton, N. J. , the organization that administers the SAT
for the College Board.{{/B}} "It's important to know how to take the test so that
you won't get a score that's lower than you deserve." But, he adds, "none of the
rigorous scientific evidence that we have seen supports these promises" to raise
test scores. (42) {{B}}Several points, however, do weigh in favor
of software as opposed to traditional test-preparation.{{/B}} Cost is a big
one. (43) {{B}}Convenience is another, as the College Board points
out in touting its new sofware.{{/B}}Afew points to remember when evaluating
various test-prep software packages: (44) {{B}}The exams, though
they may seem mystical to the test taker, are not magic and certainly not
random.{{/B}} There is little variation in the strategies the programs use to
boost test scores because there is little variation in how the test are
developed. Largely, what differentiates one program from another
is the computer interface, which can make the software more—or
less—user-friendly, and such features as automated tracking of student
progress. (45){{B}} A crash course with test prep software is
never an alternative to careful, long-term preparation for taking the exams.{{/B}}
Some students are better equipped to respond to the self-paced, self-motivated
approach software offers than others, Powers notes. Although
parents may be in the market for what they consider "serious" study aids, their
children, who are the ones taking the tests, may appreciate the programs that
offer a little humor. Finally, as programs frequently point out,
the SAT and ACT, while important to college admissions officers, are only one
element of a successful college application. [A] A test prep
course with a live instructor can cost as much as $700. Test-prep software costs
$30 to $80. [B] Most of the programs, in fact, emphasize the
importance of "guessing strategies" and eliminating unlikely answers to improve
scores. [C] Unlike many programs, this one can give you a quick,
easy and comfortable way to achieve a high score. [D] "I would
rather use the program than take a preparation course, because I could do this
on my own time and in my own home," notes one student in the College Board
materials. [E] Although at least one of the test programs asks
you how long you have to prepare to take the examination in order to customize
the learnign curve, all recommend spending a period of weeks, not hours, using
the software. [F] But though many programs offer money-back
guarantees, professional test writers tend to scoff at those claims.
