Georgia was waking up to a new president Monday but it was also getting as its first lady a green?eyed linguist from Holland who has already managed to cast a spell over the little Caucasus nation. Sandra Roelofs is seen by some as the secret weapon which enables her husband Saakashvili to win in this presidential election.
She runs an investment consultancy（投資咨詢公司）, speaks six languages and some believe she is the real brains behind her husband’s rise to power.
Roelofs, who is a year younger than her husband, met him in 1993 when he was studying an international law programme in Strasbourg, France. She planed to go from there to Somalis as an aid worker but Saakashvili persuaded her to go with him instead to New York, where he had got a scholarship. They married soon after and when Saakashvili returned to his native Georgia to begin a career in politics, she went with him.
She has enchanted(使人心醉) many of her adopted countrymen. The mention of her name sends women swooning（神魂顛倒）, and melts the tough expressions of strong Georgian men.“You can really tell that she cares about people,” says a resident of the capital, Tbilisi.“She runs a hunitarian organization. She is smart and pretty and kind and did you hear the way she speaks Georgian? Perfectly!”
The new first lady’s looks and intelligence play a large part in her appeal. But Georgians are especially taken by her simple manner. She has said that she plans to keep living in the family’s modest flat, even though they have the right to move into a luxurious government residence. “She doesn’t care about fancy houses and cars.” said Malika, a 29?year?old civil servant in Tbilisi.
11. The underlined part “cast a spell over” means_________.
A. cast a shadow over B. attract
C. love D. respect
12. Which of the following can be best used to describe Sandra Roelofs?
A. Proud. B. Hard?working. C. Charming. D. Humble.
13.What moves Georgians most is that Sandra Roelofs is very ________.
A. pretty B. modest C. intelligent D. plain
14. Which is the right order in which Sandra Roelofs did the following?
a. Roelofs married Saakashvili.
b. She planned to go from France to Somalis as an aid worker.
c. Roelofs runs an investment consultancy.
d. Roelofs came from Holland.
e. Roelofs went to Georgia with Saakashvili.
A. d?a?e?c?b B. d?a?b?e?c
C. a?b?e?c?d D. d?b?a?e?c
11---14 BCDD
本文為人物簡介，介紹了格魯吉亞新任總統(tǒng)Saakashvili的妻子，第一夫人Sandra Roelofs。
11.B 詞語猜測題。從全文來看，我們知道她已經(jīng)設(shè)法贏得了格魯吉亞國人的信任和支持，故B項與之存在因果關(guān)系，符合題意。
12.C 主旨大意題。根據(jù)...the secret weapon which enables her husband Saakashvili to win in this presidential election及文中第四段前兩句等處我們可以看出Roelofs是個很有魅力的女人。
13.D 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)But Georgians are especially taken by her simple manner可知，令格魯吉亞國人格外感動的是她的樸實態(tài)度。
14.D 細節(jié)理解題。要求給事件排序。我們可以首先找出第一個事件d. Roelofs came from Holland，然后再找出最后一個事件c. Roelofs runs an investment consultancy，不難看出答案為D。

A few weeks after my first wife, Georgia, was called to heaven, I was cooking dinner for my son and myself. For a 36 , I had decided on frozen peas. As I was cutting open the bag, it 37 from my hand and crashed to the floor. The peas, like marbles, 38 everywhere. I tried to use a broom(掃帚), 39 with each sweep they just rolled across the kitchen.
For the next week, every time I was in the 40 , I found a pea—in a corner, or behind a table leg. They kept 41 . Eight months later I pulled out the refrigerator to clean behind it, and 42 12 frozen peas hidden underneath.
At the time I found those few remaining 43 , I was in a new relationship with a wonderful 44 I’d met in a support group. After we married, I was reminded 45 those peas under the refrigerator, and realized that my 46 had been like that bag of frozen peas. It had shattered(破碎). My wife had died; I was in a new city with a busy job, and with a son having trouble 47 his new surroundings and the 48 of his mother. I was a bag of spilled(灑落) frozen peas; my life had come apart and scattered(撒開).
When life gets you 49 , when everything you know comes apart, and when you think you’ll never 50 , remember that it’s just a bag of scattered frozen peas. The peas can be 51 , and life will move on. You’ll find all the peas 52 , including the ones that are hardest to find. And when you’ve got them 53 you’ll start to feel whole again.
The life you know can break apart at any time. But you’ll have to 54 , and how fast you collect your peas depends on you. Will you keep scattering them around with a broom, 55 will you pick them up one by one and put your life back together?
