3.Passage FiveMark Twain is one of America's much-beloved authors,creating imaginative and humorousclassics for children and adults alike,such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,The Prince and ThePauper,and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Twain passed away in 1910,leaving behind a treasure of great literature.But now,100 years after his death,he'll have a brand-new book on the shelves: a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb:it was his wish that publishers wait until 100years after his death to publish his memoirs(自传),which he spent the last decade of his lifeworking on.The autobiography totals more than 5,000 pages,and likely won't be all sunshine and roses.Itseems that Twain harbored some bitterness against former girlfriends and ex-friends.He also writes negatively about politicians of his day,such as Teddy Roosevelt.It's likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn't want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sections of the memoirs have been previously published,the autobiography hasnever been available in full,and should provide great insights into the man behind the classicbooks.The first volume of the set will be available in November,and the trilogy is being published by the University of California,Berkeley."There are so many biographies of Twain,and many of them have used bits and pieces of theautobiography,"editor Robert Hirst told The Independent.“But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote.By publishing Twain's book in full,we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sort of a man he was.”55.What is the purpose of publishing Twain's autobiography?

7.根据以下资料，回答42-45题。 　　England is not a big country: from north to south and from east to west it is only about three hundred miles across．But for a small country it has a surprising range of climate．People who have never visited England or who have visited only one part of it often makes the mistake of thinking that it is a cold and wet country．Except for the summer months of June to September, this is probably true of the north of England and the Midlands．In the south, however, the climate is much more pleasant．One result is that when people retire from the job in the north, they often prefer to move down to the south. 　　Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest, which consists of (is made up of) the counties of Devon and Cornwall, where palm trees, bamboo and many semitropical plants grow well．Flowers and vegetables ripen as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere．Farmers in the areas gain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier．In winter there may be several feet of snow in other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest．This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of England's most popular holiday areas.42 The distance from the center of England to south coast is about

15.Claude-Oscar Monet ( 1840 -- 1926 ) was a French artist and a leading member of the Impressionist group of painters. Born in Paris, Monet spent his childhood in Le Havre. There he met a local artist, Eugene Boudin. Who encouraged him to become a landscape painter.In 1859, Monet went to Paris to study at theAcademie Suisse. Between 1860 and 1862, Monet served in the army in Algeria ( 阿尔及利亚 ).He returned to Paris where he met most of the major artists of the era. In 1870, Monet marriedCamille Doncieux. To escape the Franco-Prnssian war,they moved to London Back toFrance, they settled at Argenteuil, a boating centre on the Seine (塞纳河 ) which drew many other Impressionist painters. Working from nature was a particular symbol of the Impressionist movement, and one that Monet valued, reflecting in his paintings the ever-changing impact of light and weather conditions.In 1872,he visited Le Havre where he painted "An Impression,Sunrise". When exhibited in 1874, part of its title was used by a critic to label the whole movement "Impressionism".Monet's wife died in 1879,and he set up home with Alice Hoschede, the wife of one of his most important sponsors. During the 1880s, Monet traveled through France painting a variety of landscapes. He gradually became better known and for the last 30 years of his life he was regarded as the greatest of the Impressionists.From 1890 he began to paint a series (系列 ) ofpictures of one subject, including "Haystacks" "Rouen Cathedral" and "Waterlilies".

There's a time to get angry,and it's best for your child if you do.Let's say your childhit a playmate with a toy-hard enough to make the other child cry.How can you teachyour child to feel sorry so he or she won't do it again?Researchers say the best way forParents to react(反应）is to show their anger and to let the child know exactly why theyare mad.

Many parents believe that it is best to control their feelings and to wait until they'recalm before scolding their children.But the mother or father who explains reasonably to achild,"Peter was crying because you hit him."is not likely to attract much attention.Young children need to be scolded immediately,and strongly,before they'll take criticism（批评）to heart.

When your young child does something wrong,scold him or her seriously at once.Atthe same time be sure to tell the child clearly what he or she has done wrong.An angry reaction without an immediate explanation does little good,Forbidding a child to play outsideor not allowing him to watch TVas a punishment works well-but only when taken together with an explanation,Make certain your child understands that although his or herwrongdoing has made you angry,you still love him or her.Use simple,direct words suchas,"You hurt Peter.How would you feel if he hit you?You must never,never hurt people."If your voice expresses strong feelings clearly,your message will carry enoughweight.3.What could be the best title for the text?（）
