2015 四川绵阳市高考英语阅读理解、完形填空选练(2)及答案阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的 A,B,C 或 D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。In Western culture, 21 was the age at which young people traditionally received a key to their parents door, as a symbol of entering adulthood. Now, the age of 21 is a time when people ask themselves: where do I go from here?Jiang Fangzhous 21 years have been filled with the kind of success most young people wouldnt dare hope for in a lifetime. She published her first book at the age of nine and has written many more since then. She is regarded as a spokesperson for her generation. However, her hopes and concerns for the future appear decidedly normal.She explains that while her fellow students are chiefly concerned with getting a job or buying an apartment, shefrets over how she can excel in her work when having limited experience of the world.However, Jiang, now a senior at the School of Journalism and Communication of Tsinghua University, notes that her peers face intense pressure and competition at school. They are expected to excel in their field of study despite limited experience, just as Jiang is expected to shine in the literary world.Young people, she says, have been forced to open their eyes to the world around them. Jiangs world has opened up, too. Shes more at ease with herself at 21, compared with when she began college.“My horizon has broadened and Im more tolerant,” she says. “As a freshman, I was desperate. I stopped people around me and asked: Is there anything in the world still worth hoping for?

And how Chinese always go for petty profits. In fact, they had been in China for only a week.”Jiang believes prejudice is unavoidable, but she also maintains that Chinese and Westerners, for example, share much common ground.“We share the same principles, such as honesty and a willingness to help others,” says Jiang. “The differences between peoples are not that huge.”1.
