    6．It was dangerously cold．A few drivers slipping and sliding off the road and back on again had cut deep ruts（车辙）in the mud．And the ruts became frozen solid．The drum of our truck's aging engine worried us．
    Trees and bushes heavy with snow bent to form an icy tunnel．We inched along the scary route as Howard grasped the steering wheel（方向盘）tightly，trying to keep the truck in the ruts．We were now riding through a nightmare with no going back．I kept praying the truck would not quit．
    However，the engine's coughing grew worse．We came to a bumping stop．Hot tears ran down my face．We noticed a small house off in the distance．"I will go for help．"Howard's words ruined my common sense and panic took over．We would take the children-we would walk to that house together!
    But the snow was deep，and our two children，asleep in the cab，were too heavy to carry．My husband convinced me to let him go alone．If no one was home or they didn't answer the door，he would come back and we'd try to hike out to a main road．For now，it was safer in the truck．I wish I could say I have faith，but when he walked away，I was mad at the world．
    It seemed as if hours had passed before I heard a familiar voice and a kind laugh of another man as they approached in the snow．The older fellow invited us to go up to the house where his wife was waiting．Two wide-awake kids moved across the seat，ready for adventure．Their voices and laughter carried in the cold night air．When we finally got close，a cheerful woman opened the door．Warm air and the smell of hot buttered popcorn and chocolate drew us in．
    Relieved，my prayers were heard!
     
    21．What made the author worried after Howard left the truck？B
    A．Her being locked in the truck．
    B．Howard's failure to get the help．
    C．Children's fear in the freezing night．
    D．The truck's sudden move in the frozen mud．
    22．What can we learn about the older couple from Paragraph 5？A
    A．They were willing to offer help．
    B．They loved making friends with children．
    C．They enjoyed cooking in cold winter nights．
    D．They came across the Howards on the way home．
    23．What would be the best title of the passage？D
    A．A Scary Night
    B．Man's Prayer
    C．A Truck Accident

    11．Being seen in a fancy sports car or enjoying a beach holiday in a five-star hotel were once signs of having"made it"．
    But a new study suggested that having people think of you as constantly busy and overworked is now a far better way to show social status．
    According to Harvard University in the US，people are increasingly leaning toward the phenomenon of"humblebragging （谦虚自夸）"．This is when people make a seemingly modest statement that actually draws attention to something they want to brag （吹嘘） about．
    Phrases such as"I have no life"and"I desperately need a holiday"are now used to imply social standing，while ordering food and shopping online is the perfect way to prove to neighbors that you are simply too busy and important to go to the supermarket．
    "Movies，magazines，and popular TV shows often highlight （强调） the abundance （富足） of money and leisure time among the wealthy，"said Neeru Paharia，an assistant professor at Harvard University．
    "In recent years，featuring wealthy people relaxing by the pool or on a yacht （游艇），playing tennis or skiing and hunting are being replaced with advertisements featuring busy individuals who work long hours and have very limited leisure time，"he said．"Displaying （how busy you are at work） and a lack of leisure time operates as a visible signal of status in the eyes of others．"
    The researchers pointed out that the Wall Street Journal's 2016advert campaign featured celebrities （名人） complaining about their busy lives，with the slogan （标语）．"People who don't have time，make time to read the Wall Street Journal．"
    The report，which was published in the Journal of Consumer Research，also found that brands that marketed themselves as timesaving were becoming increasingly high-status，because of the people who used them．
    According to the authors，this trend of humblebragging is due to people's shit of focus-they now value"the preciousness und scarcity （稀缺） of individuals"more than"the preciousness and scarcity of goods"．
    "Busy individuals possess desirable characteristics，leading them to be viewed as scarce and in demand，"the authors concluded．

    32．The main idea of this article is aboutA？
    A．the trend of"humblebragging"．
    B．characteristics of people who lead a busy life．
    C．why people today are becoming increasingly busy．
    D．why some people like to brag about their social status．
    33．People today prefer toB to display their social status
    A．share their passion for tennis or skiing
    B．show how fast-paced their work life is
    C．tell people about the wonderful holidays they take
    D．show off their abundance of money and leisure time
    34．The Wall Street Journal's 2016 advert campaign implies thatD．
    A．busy people always have a better life than others
    B．it's important to read newspapers however busy you are
    C．busy individuals should learn to manage their time better
    D．a lack of time is a typical characteristic of people of high social status
    35．From the article we can conclude that America people todayB．
    A．all brag about themselives．
    B．value individuals，the preciousness and scarcity
    C．order food and shop online to show they are rich
    D．work long hours and don't have enough leisure time．
