    Fighting for a Brighter Future for Women
    When I was asked what it means to be a woman running for president， I always gave the same answer that I was proud to be running as a woman， but I was running because t thought I'd be the best president.
    But I am a woman and， like millions of women， I know there are still barriers and biases （偏见） out there， often unconscious， and I want to build an America that respects and embraces the potential of every last one of us.
    I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as a mother who worried about my daughter's future and a mother who wants to leave all children brighter tomorrows.
    To build that future I see， we must make sure that women and men alike understand the struggles of their grandmothers and their mothers， and that women enjoy equal opportunities， equal pay， and equal respect.
    Let us resolve and work toward achieving very simple propositions （命题）： There are no acceptable limits， and there are no acceptable prejudices in the 21st century in our country.
    You can also be so proud that， from now on， it will be unremarkable for a woman to win primary state victories， unremarkable to have a woman in a close race to be our nominee （被提名者）， unremarkable to think that a woman can be the president of the United States. And this is truly remarkable， my friends.
    To those who are disappointed that we couldn't go all of the way， especially the young people who put so much into this campaign， it would break my heart if， in falling short of my goal， I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours.
    Always aim high， work hard， and care deeply about what you believe ~n. And， when you stumble （出错）， keep faith. And， when you're knocked down， get right back up and never listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on.
    As we gather here today in this historic， magnificent building， the 50th woman to leave the Earth is orbiting （绕轨道运行） overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space， we will someday launch a woman into the White House.
    16　Hillary Clinton was elected president of the United States A　 Right　　　 B　Wrong　　 C Not mentioned
    17　Hillary Clinton believed that if she were elected president of the United States， she would be the best. A　 Right　　 B　Wrong　　 C Not mentioned
    18　The American people are now ready to accept a woman as their president
    A　 Right　　 B　Wrong　　 C Not mentioned
    19　Many American young people feel disappointed at Hillary's failure to win the nomination.
    A　 Right　　 B　Wrong　　 C Not mentioned
    20　America's 50th female astronaut is right now moving round the Earth
     A　 Right　　 B　Wrong　　 C Not mentioned
    21　Hillary Clinton will support Obama in the upcoming presidential election campaign
    A　 Right　　 B　Wrong　　 C Not mentioned
    22　Hillary Clinton will no longer run for president
    A　 Right　　 B　Wrong　　 C Not mentioned
    第3部分：概括大意与完毕句子（第23～30题，每题1分，共8分）

    Money or Friendship or Both
    1　　Friends and money don't mix. It's a dangerous combination since a fight over money is one of the fastest ways to end a friendship. But what if a friend asks you to lend him or her some money？ If you don't lend your friend the money， you risk losing the friend If you do lend your friend the money， you risk losing both the friendship and your money
    2　　We have to face facts， so here are some situations you might run across with your buddies （伙伴） - and some helpful tips （忠告） on how to deal with them. Think about why this person needs to borrow in the first place. If he is always living beyond his means， it's his fault， not yours. Any sensible person would not put himself in a position of debt so often. So simply say “no” to this friend. Even if your friend really needs that money for emergency use and you are willing to help him， before you dived into your pocket， follow this reality check： Do you have the extra money？ Are you sure you don't need it？ Are you willing to write off that amount if it's not returned？ If your answers are negative， do yourself a favor and say “no”。
    3　　Let's assume you can't stand saying “no” to your friend because you don't want him living off cat food. What do you do？ Write down these details on a sheet of paper before opening up your wallet：Amount of the loan. Date of the loan. Time of repayment. Amount of interest （if any）。
    Lender's and borrower's signature. This will at least keep the borrower from forgetting the loan so easily. If your friend's loan is past due， it's important that you ask him - and it's actually not rude. The longer you wait， the more you brood （忧伤）， and the more your resentment builds.
    4　　You can send him a friendly reminder via e-mail. Tell him something like 'Tm going over my bank account and I'm just wondering when we'll be able to settle that money thing.“ E-mail saves you from an uncomfortable face-to-face confrontation. There is almost no chance of turning a bad reaction into an argument. Unlike a public　conversation， an e-mail message will always be private.
    5　　After asking two or three times， you might have to wnte it off and the friendship with it. That's what happens. If he just doesn't have the money or is unwilling， then what kind of friend is that？
    23　Paragraph 2　　　　。
    24　Paragraph 3　　　　。
    25　Paragraph 4　　　　。
    26　Paragraph 5　　　　。
    A  Unconditional assistance to friends in need B  Things to consider when you have to say “no” to your friend C  Things to think over when you don't want your friend to eat cat food D  Strategies for borrowing money E  Advantages of e-mail in handling money issues F  Time to break off a friendship 27　Sometimes you may find it very difficult to decide　　　　。
    28　Before you lend money to your friend，　　　　。
    29　If the loan is past due，　　　　。
    30　If your friend refuses to return the money，　　　　。
    A　 you can lend more money to him or her B　 you must get to know why he or she needs that money C　 if you should lend money to your friend D　 you can call the police to settle the issue E　 there is no need to maintain a friendly relation with him or her F　 you can remind your friend of it via e-mail

    Who's to blame？　　　　　（47） “We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can，” says Rene Marois， a neuroscientist （神经科学家） in Tennessee. “But a core limitation is the inability to concentrate on two things at once.”
