第3题：
Of all Barry H．Landau's anecdotes about his friendships with presidential dogs,perhaps the best is the one about the time the Clinton White House called to postpone his play-date with Buddy．
Yes,Landau is both human and an adult,a 60-year-old author,presidential historian,former White House protocol officer and memorabilia collector．But so enamored is he of dogs,and so well connected to a succession of presidents,that he had an appointment for a South Lawn romp one day with Buddy,Bill Clinton's Labrador retriever(拉布拉多犬).
Logistics got in the way,though,and hence Clinton secretary Betty Currie's apologetic voice mail left at the Smithsonian Institution,where Landau was doing research:"I'm sorry,but we'll have to reschedule Mr．Landau's play-date with Buddy."
Not surprisingly,this is a happy week for Landau,with the new Obama family dog,Bo,joining a White House tradition that dates to George Washington．It's one that Landau feels is invaluable to a presidency.
"Having a dog just humanizes a president,"he says．"It completes the picture．It's something people can relate to."
And Landau has related to the best of them．He's known about 25 White House dogs since the Eisenhower administration．Among the presidential-pooch memorabilia in his Manhattan apartment are matching orange inaugural dog coats worn by LBJ's twin beagles(小猎犬),Him and Her,and a photo of Landau kissing Clipper,JFK's German shepherd.
Where does Landau live?A.Washington,DC
B.Manhattan,New York City
C.Baltimore,Maryland
D.White House答案：B解析：最后一段。the presidential—pooch memorabilia总统家的小狗纪念品。在Landau的纽约曼哈顿的家里有很多总统狗的纪念品。 -

第8题：
Questions from 31 to 35 are based on the following passage: The exporter, as drawer of a draft (bill of exchange), hands the draft to his bank, the remitting bank, who in turn forwards it to the buyer through a collecting bank in the buyer’s country. A draft (also called a bill) is a written order to a bank or a customer to pay someone on demand or at a fixed time in the future a certain sum of money. If shipping documents accompany the draft, the collection is called “documentary collection.” Documentary collection falls into two major categories: one is documents against payment(D/P); the other, documents against acceptance (D/A). Documents against payment, as the term suggests, is that the collecting bank will only give the shipping documents representing the title to the goods on the condition that the buyer makes payment. Where the paying arrangement is D/A, the collecting bank will only give the buyer the shipping documents after buyer’s acceptance of the bill drawn on him, i.e. the buyer signs his name on the bill promising to pay the sum when it matures. In return he gets what he needs – the shipping documents. Under D/A, the seller gives up the title to the goods – shipping documents before he gets payment of the goods. Therefore, an exporter must think twice before he accepts such paying arrangement. A draft can be described as followings except（）.
- A、a bill of exchange
- B、a kind of shipping documents
- C、a bill
- D、a written paying order

问答题Practice 2 President Bill Clinton's My Wife shows US the progress of a remarkable American, who, through his own enormous energies and efforts, made the unlikely journey from Hope, Arkansas, to the White House—a journey fueled by an impassioned interest in the political process which manifested itself at every stage of his life：in college, working as an intern for Senator William Fulbright; at Oxford, becoming part of the Vietnam War protest movement；at Yale Law School, campaigning on the grassroots level for Democratic candidates；back in Arkansas, running for Congress, attorney general, and governor. We see his career shaped by his resolute determination to improve the life of his fellow citizens, all unfaltering commitment to civil rights, and an exceptional Understanding of the practicalities of political life. We come to understand the emotional pressures of his youth—born after his Father's death；caught in the dysfunctional relationship between his feisty, nurturing mother and his abusive stepfather, whom he never ceased to love and whose name he took；drawn to the brilliant, compelling Hillary Rodham, whom he was determined to marry；passionately devoted, from her infancy, to their daughter, Chelsea, and to the entire。Experience of fatherhood; slowly and painfully beginning to comprehend how his early denial of pain led him at times into damaging patterns of behavior.正确答案： 【参考译文】
克林顿总统的《我的生活》一书揭示的是一个出类拔萃的美国人的成长历程,他通过自己的巨大能力和努力,走完了从阿肯色州荷普市通往白宫的这一看起来不大可能完成的历程。在此历程中,他对政治仕途充满了激情,这在他人生的每一个阶段都显露无遗:上大学时,他作为实习生为威廉·富布赖特参议员工作;在牛津大学,他参加了反对越战的抗议运动;在耶鲁大学法学院,他在基层为民主党总统候选人助选;毕业后回到阿肯色州,他先后竞选国会议员、州检察长和州长。
我们看到他的政治生涯的形成靠的是他为改善同胞生活的坚定不移的决心,致力于民权的毫不动摇的意志,以及对政治生活实际状况不同凡响的解读。
我们了解到他青少年时代在感情上所承受的压力:他是一个遗腹子;童年时代饱受家庭失和之苦:母亲脾气暴躁,但对他关爱备至,而继父动辄恶语相加,但他一直爱着他的继父且随了继父的姓氏;他被聪明绝顶、令人心仪的希拉里·罗德汉姆所吸引,决心要娶她为妻;他对他俩的女儿切尔西从小到大始终充满了父爱;他开始慢慢地、痛苦地意识到他早年拒不承认所受的痛苦有时导致他做出有损人格的错事。解析： 暂无解析 -
