【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 “We observed that being too optimistic in predicting a better future than actually observed was associated with a greater risk of disability and a greater risk of death within the following decade,” wrote Frieder R. Lang, a professor at the University of ErlangenNuremberg. Lang and his colleagues believed that people who were pessimistic about their future may be more careful about their actions than people who expected a rosy future. “Seeing a dark future may encourage positive evaluations of the actual self and may contribute to taking improved precautions (預(yù)防措施 ),” the authors wrote.

Get, obtain, acquire. Shine, gleam, glow, sparkle. 16 That was the thinking of a British writer named C. K. Ogden, who in the 1930s proposed a new form of English with a vocabulary of just 850 words. He called the project Basic English. 17 Ogden arrived at his 850word list through experimentation, rephrasing texts over and over until he was satisfied. The words he finally included were not necessarily the shortest or most concrete. 18 Because any verbal idea could be expressed with a small number of “operators” — words like e, go, get, take, have, make, be, and do — Ogden argued that most verbs were unnecessary. In Basic English, eat is “have a meal” and fet is “go from memory. Winston Churchill was a fan of the concept as a way to get foreigners to speak English, and he encouraged the BBC to use it. 19 Roosevelt, who expressed mild interest, joked that Churchill39。s famous speech about offering his “blood, toil, tears, and sweat” to his country wouldn’t have been so exciting if he “had been able to offer the British people only blood, work, eye water, and face water, which I understand is the best that Basic English can do with five famous words. 20 Churchill didn39。t use it either. When seeking to express ourselves, we don39。t necessarily need fewer words。 we need the right words. So it39。s to our benefit to have a large supply on hand. A. Do we really need them all? B. How many words are there in English? C. Ogden himself didn39。t actually use Basic English. D. Plenty of seemingly basic words did not make the list at all. E. He also tried to persuade President Franklin Roosevelt to promote it. F. He believed it would make the language more efficient and easier to learn. G. Despite attention from world leaders, Basic English never got very far off the drawing board. 第二部分：完形填空 (共 20小題；每小題 ，滿分 30 分 ) 請(qǐng)閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的 四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（ A、 B、 C 和 D） 中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。
