disturbing you?‎ A．Take it easy B．I'm sorry C．Not a bit D．It depends 答案　B　[解本题的关键在于正确理解句意特别是在答语中的Is it disturbing you? “这打扰你了吗？”所以应选B项I'm sorry.Take it easy“别紧张”；Not a bit“一点也不”；It depends“依情况而定”均不符合上下文语境。]‎ ‎15．It is reported that a bus went out of ________control on a highway________south of the city last night.‎ A．/；/ B．/；the C．the；/ D．the；the 答案　A　[冠词。out of

being poor.”he said.‎ Emma Brockes，a reporter with the Guardian，believes it is“the bad influence of celebrity(名人)culture”that is to blame.“When children wanted to be doctor，it wasn't because they were really more interested in the functions of human organs than they are now；you go where the respect is.”she wrote.‎ It could explain why there has been such an increase in levels of anxiety and depression.Dr Carlo Strenger，of Tel Aviv University，studied the sense of self for his new book The Fear of Insigni ficance：Searching for Meaning in the 21st Century.He told the Daily Mail that young people now are“affected by the close connection to the global entertainment network，which has turned ranking and rating people according to wealth and celebrity into an obsession(痴迷)．”‎ ‎“As humans，we naturally measure ourselves to those around us，but now we live in a global village.We are comparing ourselves with the most ‘important' people in the world and finding ourselves wanting，”he said.Today，even high achievers constantly fear that they are insignificant when they compare themselves to success stories in the media.‎ 7‎ The way out？Simply stop measuring your achievement through a fantasy of wealth and celebrity.Dr Strenger said that it is a process called“active selfacceptance through a constant search for selfknowledge through life”．‎ ‎“The fear of insignificance can only be overcome through strong individual and cultural identity over and above measurable achievement，”he said.‎ ‎【解题导语】

aid worker Jens Kristensen was at his desk reading documents on the third floor of the Christopher Hotel，which served as UN headquarters in PortauPrince，when he felt a tremor.Four seconds later，the

caught under falling debris，so I hid under the table.”A bookshelf toppled onto his desk，protecting him from being crushed by rubble and trapping him in a tiny pocket.“I was confined as if in a small coffin，” he says.It was so dark，and it didn't matter if his eyes were open or closed.He used the light from his mobile phone to see around him.He found，among other items，a jar of instant coffee.“I had no food or water，only the coffee to suck on if I needed it.”‎ At about 6：30 a．m on January 17，an oil leak silenced the building's generators，and Kristensen was able to hear muffled voices above where he was buried.“I thought，I was too tired to bang and shout.But then I realised，I had to take every chance.This could be one.”So he called out.Six hours later，Kristensen saw his rescuers' faces.“It was so amazing.I felt I had received a second birthday，”he recalls.‎ Dehydration and pains but with only a bruise and a scratch，Kristensen took three days to recover.The UN lost more than 90 people in
