A
“He almost didn’t see the old lady, stranded(困在) on the side of the road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front her Mercedes and got out.
Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help
for the last hour or so. Was he going to hu rt her? He didn’t look safe; he looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt.
He said, “I am here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.”
Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack, skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.
As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was just passing through. She couldn’t thank him enough for coming to her aid.
Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already imagined all the awful things that could have happened, had he not stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were many people who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.
He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, “And think of me.”
He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into the twilight.
56. This story most probably took place____.
A．in a garage B．on a highway C．in a busy street D．near a gas station
57. When the man approached the old lady, the first thing he did was to____.

58. The underlined part in Paragraph 6 suggests that____.
A．the old lady had got ready to pay the man B．the old lady was grateful to the man
C．the man had a lot of difficulty changing the tire D．the man didn’t stop changing the tire
59. Which of the following words can best describe the man?

C．Thoughtful and helpful. D．Generous and open-minded.

Sure it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.
And yes, it's good to get along with your teacher because in general it's smart to learn how to understand the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.
"But really there's one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do learning bursts right open " says Evelyn Vuko a longtime teacher who writes an education column(专栏) called "Teacher Says" for the Washington Post newspaper.
In fact, kids, who get along with their teachers not only learn more but they're more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher he or she can be someone to turn to with problems such as problems with learning or school life such as bullying.
As a kid in a primary or middle school you're at a wonderful stage in your life. You're like a sponge (海绵) able to absorb lots of new and exciting information. On top of that you're able to think about all this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that in most cases is very excited to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you make it. Remember teachers are people too and they feel great if you're open to what they're teaching you. That's why they wanted to be teachers in the first place-to teach!
Some kids may be able to learn in any situation whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher and if things aren't going well they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.
61. In the passage the author mainly talks about _______.
A. how to get along well with others
B. the importance of a good relation with teachers
C. how much the students are expected of to get along with teachers
D. how to make the time in the classroom more pleasant
62. "Learning bursts right open" in the third paragraph really means _______.
A. learning becomes easier for you at once
B. you find an opening to learning
C. there'll be more problems with learning
D. there'll be no problems at all with learning
63. According to the passage which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. If you get on well with your teachers you must have a good result in exams
B. The more questions you ask the higher marks you will get.
C. If you have a good relationship with your teacher you can turn to him when in trouble.
D. Many kids can do well without a good relationship with teachers.
64. Which of the comments is FALSE on teachers and their work according to the passage?
A. Teachers are excited even if you wouldn't like to accept their teaching.
B. Teachers sometimes have the same feelings as students do.
C. Though few there are still some students who can learn even if they don't like the teacher.
D. Having a bad relationship with your teachers does more or less harm to your studies.
C
One evening at a busy Broadway crossroad, I noticed a sister struggling to keep her little kid under control while she talked on the pay phone. She wanted him to stay still next to her, but he wanted to run and play at the curb（路边）, close to rushing buses and taxis. One could sense the woman’s frustration（挫败）, that she was pulled in too many directions: She was angry at the person on the telephone and shouting at the younger that she would “snap（打断）his leg” if he moved again. As I waited for the traffic light to change, the child began to complain and struggle to free himself from the woman’s grip. She dropped the phone, seized the neck of his tiny T-shirt and gave him a back-hand blow across the face that I know made his little head spin.
The light changed, and passersby continued on their way. But I stood there, fixed to the pavement. I knew this extremely upset woman would follow through on her threat of violence to the child. Before, I had wanted to approach her and offer to watch the youngster while she dealt with the distressing situation on the phone. Now I wanted to comfort the little boy. I also wanted to speak to the sister to calm her and to caution her, as I wish someone had cautioned me when I was passing my pain on to my daughter and causing her emotional suffering. But I was chicken（胆小鬼）. I thought, she may think I’m out of line, or I may be her next target.
Often I’ve thought about that child and the many others abused（虐待，辱骂）by adults. I wonder how they will internalize (使……藏在心底) their pain, if it will crush their spirits. Will this little boy grow up to be an abusive man? Will he be gloomy and withdrawn? Will he find it hard to communicate with women, with other men? Or will he survive and be sensitive, caring and determined not to continue the cycle?
There is too much cruelty in the world, too much cruelty between people. I tremble at the increasing verbal bitterness and violence among Black girls, and among young mothers trying to discipline their c hildren. This behavior isn’t class- or age- related: I hear sharp words from Black women from all walks of life who are overworked and stressed out and have grown impatient. At times I, too, become short with others, or, like the sister on the phone, strike out at（抨击） those closest to me.
Often we’re tired because we’ve made the wrong choices. Young girls who still need mothering are loaded with children. We, sisters easily get hurt and annoyed when we don’t compromise（妥协）with our own sense of self. Our personal fulfillment requires knowing what is best for us, setting oar boundaries and keeping them undamaged. We will always be asked to do more than we are comfortable doing. When we know our boundaries, we can decline comfortably. People — and we ourselves — will act in ways we don’t like. But they, like us，are still worthy of love.
Whatever irritates (激怒) us about a person should be examined. Is the person reflecting behavior in us that needs to be changed? Often, when I find people irritating, I find they mirror something about me that I need to correct.
What we people of African root must do to thrive begins with love, sensitivity and our ability to work together. We Black women have these spiritual resources in abundance（充裕）. Now we must draw on them to create a peaceful place —for ourselves, our children, our men.
65. The scene the author described in the passage probably happened.
A. in a phone booth
B. on the street
C. near a taxi stand
D. at a bus stop
66. We can learn from the passage the mother of the little kid must be.
A. confused and quick-minded
B. cruel and talkative
C. disappointed and hot-tempered
D. considerate and sensitive
67. In paragraph 2, by saying “She may think I am out of line”, the author meant
the woman might say . .
A. “Walk away. It’s none of your business.”
B. “You can watch and comfort my kid.”
C. “You’re not standing in the queue.”
D. “You are walking in the wrong direction.”
68. The wrong choices the author mentions in Paragraph 5 include.
a. We siste rs refuse to marry young.
b. We aren’t satisfied with ourselves.
c. We have our boundaries damage
d. d. We decline others’ requests for help.
A. a, b
B. c, d
C. a, d
D. b, c
69. According to the author, when we find a person irritating, we should .
A. return to tenderness and tolerance
B. avoid the hard words and sharp tones
C. reflect on our behavior that needs correcting

70. The tone of the last paragraph is.

第四部分任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章表格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
Are you often upset about your failure in daily life? In fact everyone has gone through failure. In most cases you fail because of a lack of persistence（坚持不懈）. Being persistent is a skill that can help you reach a dream more easily, get what you desire and even be a way in which you defend your idea or right before difficult people. Being persistent is a kind of quality most people who are successful have.
Failure is often used as an excuse or reason not to go after a goal. Yet, getting over failure is a good way of being persistent. So to be persistent, you should accept that we all experience failure in life.The most successful people in life have ever failed. The difference between them and people who fail is that successful people face the failure, learn from it and use it fully and wisely to inspire their next attempt.
You should keep on trying at the first sight of difficulty. Anything that is worth doing or achieving is sure to be difficult. Treat that as the challenge and as something that will test your courage, shape you for the better, and make you stronger and wiser. If at first you do not succeed, try it again and again.
More importantly, you need to learn to give up where necessary. If the constant facts tell you that you should let go of an realistic goal despite your efforts, be wise about devoting your energies. Don’t waste time and energy, for you have just learned what does not work and is not worth persisting with.
In addition, it is also important to be persistent when refusing or demanding something. So you have to be persistent in what you say so that other people truly understand your meaning and know that you mean it. Whether it that will be remembered by others. Thus, when making your request or refusal, make eye contact with the person you are talking with, and this shows you are serious. Avoid saying sorry unless it is necessary because an apology usually is a sign of guilt, uncertainty or fear. Always state what you want to do or what you refuse to do clearly and exactly.

It’s not rare to see some high school students absent-minded or sleepy in class. One of the main reasons is that they lack sleep, which is caused by heavy study burdens and tight schedules.
Insufficient sleep has negative effects on students. First, it can significantly affect students’ academic performance. Too little sleep contributes to their poor level of concentration. Clearly, concentration is essential. Lack of sleep also makes it harder for students to remember what they learned the day before, leaving them poorly equipped to solve complex problems. Besides, loss of sleep can damage their physical and mental health. It causes anxiety and a weak immune system.
There are some measures that can be taken to change this situation, though I help teachers, parents and students must be made fully aware of the importance of sleep. Meanwhile, schools need to adjust their schedules to ensure students enough time for sleep.
