　　With her pretty face and soulful voice, Zhang Bichen was instantly thought a possible champion when she first set foot on the stage of the TV show The Voice of China.

　　On Oct 7, 2024, the 25 - year - old girl won the fierce competition and received the title of the “Voice of the Year”. Zhang’s dream of being a singer star came true at last. What impressed people was not only Zhang’s singing skills, but her willingness to make an effort. “I gained the opportunity to sing on The Voice of China,” she said.

　　In fact, being a singer has always been her dream. She wanted to apply to a college for singing, but her parents insisted that she should have a stable job after graduation because she did very well at academic studies. So Zhang gave in to her parents and learned French at university. However, in the first year of her college, she was discovered by a South Korean company when she entered a singing competition. To pursue her dream, Zhang signed a contract with the company, started her career in South Korea, and became a member of a band.

　　“My company had rules that did not allow us to use cell phones. During the first few months after I arrived in South Korea, a totally unfamiliar country, I felt terribly homesick. But I could only phone my parents in the restroom when nobody noticed.” said Zhang. “When I did not have much income, I had to eat instant noodles every day for months.”

　　It was her positive attitude and outgoing character that helped her through. “When I feel down, I tell myself it is not winning or losing that matters. The most important things are standing on the stage and singing for people.” she said.

　　The Pew report---which was based on surveys carried out in Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece, Poland and the Czech Republic --- concluded that the European Union was “ the new sick man of Europe”.

　　The percentage of Europeans with a favorable view of the EU has plunged from 60 percent last year to 45 percent now.

　　The UK may be considered the most Eurosceptic（歐洲懷疑論者）country, but its support for the union has barely changed in the past 12 months, slipping only two points to 43 percent.

　　By contrast, France’s backing for the EU has slipped sharply, from 60 percent last year to 41 percent today.

　　On the question of whether to remain in the EU, 46 percent of the British want to leave the union and surprisingly, the same percentage went to stay.

　　The Pew report’s authors said, “The long-drawn economic crisis has created bad forces that are pulling European public opinion apart, separating the French from the Germans and Germans from everyone else.”

　　They added, “The effort over the past half century to create a more united Europe is now the main disaster of the euro crisis. The European project now stands in a bad reputation across much of Europe.”

　　The only European leader rated highly by their own voters was the German Chancellor Angela Merkel, with 74 percent voters in favor of her.

　　Prime Minister David Cameron was the next highest with a positive score of 37 percent among the British public, although he can take some comfort from the fact that 58 percent of Poles and half of all French people think he is doing a good job.

　　In spite of the dark economic future and growing doubt of the EU, there were strong majorities of more than 60 percent in favor of keeping the euro in the five countries surveyed that use the single currency.

　　1. Which of the following is TRUE about the recent Pew report?

　　A. The UK has the smallest number of people against the EU.

　　B. There’s a slight change of the UK’s support for the EU.

　　C. More than half the Germans raise doubt about the EU.

　　D. A vast majority of French people are in favor of the EU.

　　2. As to whether to remain in the EU, ______.

　　A. The British are divided equally

　　B. few British want to stay

　　C. half British want to leave

　　D. many British don’t care about it

　　3. What’s the Pew report’s authors’ attitude towards the relation between France and Germany?

　　A. Enthusiastic.

　　B. Optimistic.

　　C. Negative.

　　D. Neutral.

　　4. Why does Prim Minister David Cameron feel a little bit comfortable?

　　A. Only a score of 37 percent of Britons go against him.

　　B. Many of the Poles and French think well of him.

　　C. More than 60 percent of the Europeans are in favor of keeping the euro.

　　D. Angela Merkel has 74 percent voters supporting her.

　　【由內(nèi)蒙古包頭市201閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A,B,C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

　　Prejudice is a preconceived opinion that is not based on fact or reason. Examples of prejudice in schools include believing that some students are particular type of people simply because of the way they dress or act, or believing that a certain group is good at sports simply because many peop1e in that group are goad at sports. Another example is believing that a boy is good at science because many boys are good at science.

　　I would like to cite more examples from the English literature. The best example of “prejudice” can be found in Jane Austen’s novels. Her novels in the history of English literature are popularly known as "novels of manners".Thus you can clearly understand that where manners and social behavior are concerned，"prejudice" is nevitable ! Austen' s famous novel Pride and Prejudice is the best example in this respect. When you read the novel, the very first line that would strike you is “it is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.”It is an example of 18th century English middle class prejudice that eventually looked upon women just as an object that would serve as the basic sign for a man to establish his manliness and his superior and well acquired financial status. This novel is chiefly about class division，social norms and the consequent human behavior. The characters Elizabeth and Darcy，in their journey of 1ife through the course of the novel, highlight their personal prejudices towards one another that arise from their different social strata(階層).Darcy，a rich man , at first ,

　　fails to admire the beauty and intelligence of Elizabeth because of her low social status:"she is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me;”and Elizabeth，proud of her "first impressions"，failed to understand the well natured man under the proud and unfriendly Darcy.

　　. What is "prejudice" defined in this passage?

　　A. Prejudice is a reasonable idea that is based on one’s own experience.

　　B. Prejudice is a preference for one group of people or things over another.

　　C. Prejudice is a preconceived opinion before becoming aware of fact or reason.

　　D. Prejudice is an unreasonable dislike of a particular group of people or things.

　　2. The underlined word "inevitable" in the second paragraph probably_means_

　　.

　　A. unavoidable

　　B. reasonable

　　C. unbelievable

　　D. valuable

　　3.From the novel Pride and Prejudice，we can’t learn that

　　.

　　A. where manners and social behavior are concerned "prejudice" is inevitable

　　B. "prejudice" was defined and compared with“pride” in 18th century

　　C.

　　it's about class division，social norms and the consequent human behavior

　　D. personal prejudices towards one another arise from different social strata
