After several victories on the battleground against Cao Cao, Xu was made the chie

27、f military advisor. Cao Cao was greatly surprised at the news. “If you want this person,” one of his advisors said, “you can bring his mother to Xuchang and send a forged letter in his mother's handwriting, asking Xu Shu to desert Liu Bei and come here. As Xu is well-known for a strong filial（孝順

28、的） affection, surely he will come.” This plot worked. For Xu, on receiving the letter, cried tearfully, asking Liu Bei for an immediate departure. Feeling sad, though, Liu persisted in his stay for another night, during which the two aired their sad feelings.The next day Liu laid a banquet outside t

29、he city for Xu. Holding the latter's hand, Liu said, “After we separate today, only heaven knows when and where we will meet again.” He wept bitter tears. After setting off on his way, Xu suddenly turned his horse and returned. “I almost forgot an important matter.” He said to Liu. “Ten kilomete

30、rs from Xiangyang City, in a place called Long zhong, there is a talent cal led Zhuge Liang. Do you want to meet him？” Liu expressed his willingness at once, but also aired doubt about whether Zhuge Liang was as talented as Xu. “He tells positions of stars in the heavens,” Xu assured him, “and recog

31、nizes everything on earth. He knows a person's real nature at the first meeting-the number one talent under the heaven. If you have him as your military advisor, you'll have the country under your name.” Liu suggested a visit to Zhuge by Xu on his behalf. At this, the latter shook his head i

32、n disapproval. “You must go and offer your invitation personally, and his acceptance depends entirely on your sincerity.” With these words said, Xu turned his horse and left. Later, Liu paid three trips to Zhuge's straw house, another favorite story among Chinese people.56. The underlined word “

36、with on the way to meet his mother C. the plot Cao Cao made to bring Xus mother to XuchangD. how Liu sincerely invited Zhuge to assist him in military affairsBKong Zi, also called Confucius (551 479 B.C.), and Socrates (469 399 B.C.) lived only a hundred years apart, and during their lifetimes there

37、 was no contact between China and Greece, but it is interesting to look at how the world that each of these great philosophers came from shaped their ideas, and how these ideas in turn, shaped their societies.Neither philosopher lived in times of peace, though there were more wars in Greece than in

38、China. The Chinese states were very large and feudal, while the Greek city-states were small and urban. The urban environment in which Socrates lived allowed him to be more radical (激進(jìn)的) than Confucius. Unlike Confucius, Socrates was not asked by rulers how to govern effectively. Thus, Socrates was

39、able to be more idealistic, focusing on issues like freedom, and knowledge for its own sake. Confucius, on the other hand, advised those in government service, and many of his students went on to government service.Confucius suggested the Golden Rule as a principle for the conduct of life: “Do not d

40、o to others what you would not want others to do to you.” He assumed that all men were equal at birth, though some had more potential than others, and that it was knowledge that set men apart. Socrates focused on the individual, and thought that the greatest purpose of man was to seek wisdom. He bel

41、ieved that some had more potential to develop their reason than others did. Like Confucius, he believed that the superior class should rule the inferior (下層的) classes.For Socrates, the family was of no importance, and the community of little concern. For Confucius, however, the family was the centre

42、 of society, with family relations considered much more important than political relations.Both men are respected much more today than they were in their lifetimes.60Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?A. Socrates and Confucius had much in common.B. The societies were inf

43、luenced by the philosophers ideas.C. Confucius had much influence on Socrates ideas.D. There were cultural exchanges between China and Greece.61Socrates shared with Confucius the idea that .A. all men were equal when they were bornB. the purpose of man was to seek freedom and wisdomC. the lower clas

44、ses should be ruled by the upper classD. people should not ask others to do what they did not want to62What made some people different from others according to Confucius?A. Family.B. Knowledge.C. Potential.D. Community.63This passage is organized in the pattern of .A. time and eventsB. cause and eff

52、ters degree.D. A university graduate majoring in computer science.DModern inventions have speeded up peoples lives amazingly. Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour, aircraft cross the world inside a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed se

53、ems never-ending. Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boasts (吹噓) of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.All this saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the

54、 uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have their dangers, according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation

55、 into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about.However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, lett
