When I began reading Catch -22, I thought it was a farcical satire on life in the United S

tates Army Air Force. Later I believed that Mr. Heller's target was modern war and all those who are responsible for waging it. Still later it seemed that he was attacking social organization and anyone who derives power from it. But by the end of the book it had become plain to me that it is——no other phrase will do——the human condition itself which is the object of Mr. Heller's outraged fury and disgust.

A reviewer must always keep an anxious eye on the state of his currency. If he announces too many masterpieces he risks inflation (though it is sometimes forgotten by some of us that the cowardice of perpetual crabbing (挑剔) receives its own kind of punishment). It does not seem many weeks since I was proclaiming that Malcolm Lowry's Under the Volcano is one of the great English novels of the century; and not long before that I was urging that attention should be paid to the magnificent and neglected talent of William Gerhardi.

But at the risk of inflation I cannot help writing that Catch - 22 is the greatest satirical work in English since Erewhon. For the fact is that all my successive interpretations of this book now seem to have been accurate, even if the earlier ones were also incomplete. The book has an immense and devastating (讽刺的) theme, but this theme is illustrated, as it should be, by means of an observed reality.

I am not suggesting that Catch - 22 is a realistic account of life in the war time Air Force of America or any other country. The method of satire is to inflate (放大) reality so that all its partially concealed blemishes (缺点) turn into monstrous and apparent deformations. The effect of good satire is to make us laugh with horror. And this means that social and personal evils which are being satirized must have been there, and must be felt by the reader to be there even while be is laughing at the results of the satirist's inflating imagination.

The passage seems to be from ______. ()

A．a review of a film

B．a book about the U. S. Air Force

C．an essay on satire

D．a review of a book

Reading Comprehension（阅读理解) Passage 2 A friend...

Reading Comprehension(阅读理解) Passage 2 A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse. That is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly（肚子） or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people’s rule. They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way. Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学). And the question, "How shall I begin？" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced(有经验的) enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail --that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning. 根据短文完成1-5题，在空格处填写正确选项的字母。 1. A friend of the writer’s drew the horses ____. A. very badly B. in the way of western rule C. in the way of his own rule D. all of the above

听力原文：I am writing to thank you for the interesting reports which appeared in the July

听力原文： I am writing to thank you for the interesting reports which appeared in the July '94 edition of Saturday Evening Post. I am interested in your reports since B12 deficiency is an inherited disorder in my family. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, a research project was carried out on it by London medical school.

My grandmother was 49 when she started vitamin t312 injections in 1949, She was admitted to the hospital with a blood disease. My mother was 63 when she began vitamin B12 injections. After reading your article, I believe her treatment was started too late. At the time, she almost lost her eyesight and was told that she had another diseases.

Earlier this year, I visited my doctor and explained that 1 felt very tired and asked for a blood test to establish whether I was suffering from B12 deficiency. I was told I was much too young and that only people in their 80s suffered B12 deficiency. I told him he was wrong and that research was carried out on my family 30 years ago.

I have always believed that prevention is better than cure. I now know why I love Kellogg's Honey Nut Cornflakes. They contain vitamins, including B12! If foods contain added vitamins, as

you suggest in your article, then B12 deficiency and diseases associated with it should be left to the past.

(33)

A．It is a thank-you letter to a medical doctor.

B．It is an advertisement for vitamin B12.

C．It is a letter to the editor of a magazine.

D．It is a preface to a book on vitamins.

Task 1

Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice.

You'd think Pauline Hord would have served her time by now. After all, she recently celebrated her 90th birthday, and by the time she achieved that breathtaking (激动人心的，使人惊叹的) milestone, she'd already done a 10-year stretch in the Mississippi State Prison.

Ms. Hord is a sweet-natured, gentle-talking, white-haired Southerner who never owed a debt to society—thus, she never had to pay one. So you have to wonder what a woman like this is doing in a place where most people are itching to get loose. Unlike the rest of the population, Ms. Hord goes to prison freely and eagerly. And when she gets there, she persuades prisoners of every sort to sing little ditties (小诗，短歌谣) about their ABCs and XYZs.

At age 80, Ms. Hord began teaching prisoners to read during a chance visit to the State Prison with a lawyer friend. "When Igor there, I heard that a group of volunteer workers had been praying for a teacher. They asked me if I would come and I said I would be thrilled (非常激动的，高兴的) ,” she said.

On a personal level, Ms. Hord considers this rewarding work. "If you get at the reason why these men went into crime, you will find that none of them succeeded in their early years of schooling." "They went to school at 5 believing they were going to learn to read. When they didn't learn in the first or second grade, they realized something was wrong. By 8, they were having problems. By 12 or 13, they were drinking or using drugs. And it's getting worse. I'm seeing younger and younger prisoners who know less and less. They can't read well enough to function in this society." She says.

It is this situation that Ms. Hord goes to prison week after week to correct. And when her most difficult students finally begin to read, she is sure that she, too, knows why the caged birds sing,

Ms. Hord goes to prison eagerly to .

A．sing songs for the prisoners

B．teach the prisoners to read

C．pray for the prisoners

D．make friends with the prisoners
