【題目】Like many men at some point, I dream about opening a bar. I plan to call it Work Out. It will cater to married women in need of a little fun. On Friday nights, they will be able to come here and enjoy themselves.

See, I have a gift for business. I am, as my wife Zsa Zsa likes to note, “A man with a million ideas, none of them very good.” Speaking of Zsa Zsa, she is fed up with this plain little life I’ve made for us——too many kids, too many chores, mind – numbing debt. The other day, she said she thought we needed a new family car. “Sure. How about an 87 Lincoln?” I said, and saw my dear Zsa Zsa age about 20 years, and become her mother right before my eyes.

Yes, money is our madness. Last year, we thought we had found a little cushion when I published a book about the life here in suburban America. It sold 12 copies——six of them to my mother. Four other copies went to various aunts and uncles, who used them for martini coasters (杯墊), then sold them at yard sales. The two remaining copies went to perfect strangers. (I think I owe you dinner, whoever you are. Call me, OK? We’ll arrange something.)

When the book didn’t take off, I wrote a TV show. Then I penned a short novel based on the earlier TV idea that didn’t sell. Currently, I am at work on a set of encyclopedias(百科全書). In a month, I plan to sell them door-to-door.

Such is the life of a writer, sending off the most personal thoughts possible to his hard drive. I am a writer, but also the breadwinner in my family. I’m at the keyboard at 6 almost every morning, hoping to tap out one idea——just one——that will take us up the hill, to the mountain, to the top.

【1】According to the passage, the author is leading a/an______ life.

A. enjoyable B. wealthy

C. hard D. comfortable

【2】By saying “Sure. How about an 87 Lincoln?”, the author_______ .

A. promised it to his wife

B. was showing off their fortune

C. thought his wife would like it

D. was just joking

【3】What was the result of the book the author mentioned in the 3rd paragraph?

A. It didn’t sell well at all

B. He sold it door – to – door.

C. He made a lot of money from it.

D. It was really a cushion for his family.

【4】What does the underlined word “cushion” mean ?

A. Comfortable seat. B. Financial help.

C. Unexpected success. D. Best-selling book.

【5】From the account above, which of the following statements is true?

A. He has a real gift for business.

B. He isn’t serious enough about life.

C. He is a hard – working writer.

D. His wife is satisfied with their plain life.

【題目】首先，請(qǐng)閱讀下列的應(yīng)用文：

A. Chapter One. …you probably have an image in your mind of what the “perfect’ or “ideal” body looks like. Try not to press yourself to look that way. Each person is born with genes that control the shape of his/her body. Everyone is different. It’s important to be comfortable with the body you have.

B. Chapter Two. …You use energy for everything you do. That energy comes from the food you eat. Too much food or too little exercise causes your body to store the extra energy in fat cells. But, if you exercise regularly and eat a healthy diet, you’ll feel healthier and stronger not to mention look great.

C. Chapter Three. … Your body runs best on foods high in carbohydrates（碳水化合物） and low in fat and sugar. Eating a healthy diet will provide your body with everything it needs to run smoothly. Your body breaks down proteins into amino acids(氨基酸), so you don’t need to take in the amino acids separately.

D. Chapter Four. …Exercise does more than just burn calories. For instance, regular exercise makes your muscles strong and flexible, and increases the amount of muscle you have. It also makes your heart stronger and lowers your blood pressure; …

E. Chapter Five. …Always warm up and stretch for 5-10 minutes before you do strength or endurance exercises. Afterwards, take 10 minutes to cool down. Your heart should beat normally when you stop. Exercising with a group may help you to exercise regularly.

F. Chapter Six. …Supplementation of a mixture of essential amino acids will increase protein synthesis (蛋白質(zhì)綜合體). While supplementing with either carbohydrate or amino acids(氨基酸) may limit muscle damage and stimulate (激勵(lì)) protein synthesis, there is increasing evidence that the combination can have an addictive effect.

【1】 Charity He always breathes heavily and his heart beats irregularly when he finishes his exercise. He wonders whether there is something wrong with his body or whether he is not suited for physical exercises.
