In Western society, many young people, when they finish school at the age of 18, take a gap (间隙) year before they go to university. The chance for young people to see the other countries and experience life is 46 important by their parents.
Parents often want their children to 47 a little and see what the real world is like when they finish school. Although they are worried about the hard times their children might have, many think that the advantages of being 48 and getting experience are worth the worries. Children are encouraged to be brave and to explore the world on their own or with friends.
Young people also want to experience 48 and see what life is like on the other side. This other side could be the other side of the world or just the other side of life.

them work as 52 to do something for the country they are visiting.

A.Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案) ( 12分)
The small Italian city of Siena sits on top of a hill. It makes for Array beautiful views. But if you’re trying to get a piano to the top, it me ans
a lot of work.
But Dothan Negron was not afraid of the challenge. For him,
pushing a piano from place to place is a regular task. In five years’
time Dothan travelled to over 300 cities in 21 countries with his piano,
sharing his love of music with people from USA, Mexico, Canada and a number of European countries.
When Dothan first graduated from college, he changed jobs very often. The young man never felt
like he had a real interest in these jobs. He wanted to do something unusual with his life. Finally, in
2010, Dothan left his own city of New York and began working as a travelling pianist. He first
travelled to some other cities in USA, then farther to more cities abroad.
Of course, his life is by no means easy. Moving a 500-pound piano is really hard. Dothan once had
his piano fall on his hand, which broke two of his fingers. His van was broken into in Mexico. And he
also had problems when he tried to park his van on narrow European streets.
But it has never stopped Dothan from getting to the next place. He loves meeting people of all kinds. All through these years, he has had over 1200 contacts in his phone book. “Who would have thought that playing the piano is the best way to clear up misunderstanding?’ Dothan said.
Now, Dothan plans to travel to Asia and Australia, and continue to meet more aspiring people.
69. For Dothan Negron, pushing a piano to different places is a/an task.
A) regular B) new C) easy D) boring
70. Dothan travelled to over 300 cities in .
A) year 2010 B) 21 months C) 5 years D) 500 days
71. After graduation from college, Dothan changed jobs very often because .

B. Choose the words and complete the passage （选择最恰当的单词完成短文）（12分）
Today, more and more popular novels, both modern and old, are being
turned into films in Hollywood. Yet why are some of these films so
successful, while others seem to lose the main idea of the book completely?
Characters
One of the most important things in a film is having characters that the
audience can relate to (与…有某种联系). It does not matter what job they
do, where they live, or even whether they are good or bad. However, the audience must be able to
recognize something of themselves in them. 75 , no one wants to spend two hours watching people
they do not like or understand.
Actors
When you read a book, you often build a picture of the 76 in your mind. For example, if you
have imagined a character as short and dark-haired, it can be quite a surprise when you go to the
cinema and see a tall actor with blond hair. Producers often feel the need to 77 famous actors, but
they should not do this unless these actors are completely right for the story. When they put the wrong
person in the film, they often ruin (破坏) the effect of the film as a whole.
Learning 78
Books can be read over a long period of time. So writers can look very closely at every little detail,
and spend a lot of time thinking about the best descriptions. People producing films have to make them
move more 79 , or they are afraid that their audience will get bored. That ’s why the most
important is learning which parts should stay, which should be cut from the film.
Endings
The biggest problem with some films is that they change the ending to make it happier, and this
may let part of the audience feel pleased. To many people, however, it loses the meaning of the book. A
film needs to stay true to the main idea of a book, even if it makes some people 80 . There are few
things worse than seeing a book you love turned into a terrible film.
75. A) After all B) By the way C) In addition D) At last
76. A) famous actors B) main characters
C) beautiful houses D) attractive views
77. A) choose B) become C) report D) meet
78. A) where to start B) when to finish C) how to act D) what to cut
79. A) easily B) carefully C) quickly D) clearly
80. A) frightened B) tired C) disappointed D) unlucky
C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words （在短文的空格内填入适当的词，
使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给)（14分）
We all remember seeing hitchhikers (搭便车者). They stood by the
side of the road, thumb sticking out, waiting for a lift (免费搭车). But
hitchhiking is getting rare nowadays. What killed it? S 81 is often
mentioned as a reason. Movies about hitchhiking killers and real-life
crimes have stopped many drivers from picking up hitchhikers.
No
single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester. This fact shows people’s fear: a large, strangely dressed man is thought to be a d 82 person.
But the reason may be more complex(复杂的): hitchhiking happens where people don’t have cars and transport services are p 83 . Plenty people still hitchhike in some countries. Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the U.K. makes the few hitchhiking people look strange. Why can’t these people a 84 cars? Why can’t they take the bus or the train?
Three-quarters of the U.K. population have cars; many of those that have no cars are quite old. So the potential(潜在的) hitchhiking population is small. Yet on my way to Manchester, I got a lift from several people. My t 85 proves that it’s still possible to hitchhike. Those who picked me up i 86 a lawyer, a retired doctor, a tank commander, a worker, a man who lives in a lonely farmhouse and a couple living up in the mountains. Most people just wanted to do someone a favour; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help stopping.
The future of hitchhiking most likely lies with car-sharing which is organized over the Internet. But for now, you can still stick your thumb out (a 87 , I didn’t do much of that. I preferred to hold up the sign of the place I wanted to go) and people—wonderful, caring, sharing, unafraid people—will stop.
In the U.K., with its cheap buses and reasonable railway service, I don’t think I’ll form a habit of hitchhiking.
D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题) ( 12分)
My day started just like all the other days. I left for the train station at 7:30 a.m. to arrive at work by 8:30. “Just another day,” I thought.
I didn’t know why but for some reason when I got on the train Array that day, it was unusually full. I sat down in the only seat beside a
man who had his head down and seemed to be lost in his thoughts.
Shortly after the train left I found myself wondering what could be so
important that the man didn’t even see me. I tried to forget about it.
However, for some strange reason this “inner voice” kept asking me
to talk to this man.
At last I made up my mind and thought of an excuse to ask him a question. When he raised his head, I could see that he must have been really sad as he had red eyes and still had tears rolling down the side of his face.
We talked for about 20 minutes and he seemed to be feeling better. As we were leaving the train, he thanked me politely for spending the time talking with him. I never found out what made him so sad, but was glad I listened to the “voice” that day.
Several weeks later, I noticed a letter on my desk. It was from the man I met on the train, thanking me for saving his life. In it he explained that with no hope he shouted to God that if God really cared about him he would send someone to stop him from taking his own life. In his eyes I was that someone sent by God.
So next time, you know why you should follow your “inner voice” to talk to a friend, a relative or
even a stranger.

Monty Robert’s father was a horse train er. As a child, Monty often went from one farm to another with his father. Sometimes they didn’t have enough money to pay for food, but Monty still kept hoping to own a horse farm.
Once, the teacher asked the students to write a composition about their dreams. Monty wrote a seven-page composition. He wanted to have a horse farm one day. He even drew a picture of a horse farm in the composition.
The next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later, he got his paper back. On the front page was a large red “F” with the words “See me after class”. So the boy went to the teacher’s office and asked her, “Why di d I get an F?” The teacher said, “This dream will not come true for a young boy like you. You need a lot of money to own a horse farm. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for a lot of things. There is no way you could ever do it.” Then the teacher added, “If you write this composition again with a simpler goal, I will give you a good grade.”
After school he thought hard about it. At last, he decided to hand in the same paper, making no changes at all. He wrote: “You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.”
Many years later, Monty had his own large horse farm. His dream came true.
So don’t let anyone take away your dreams. Follow your dreams, no matter what they are.

Soon Julian realized that she was in the forest by herself. She needed to find her way to a village.
Luckily, Julian knew something about the forest. Her parents were plant scientists. They were studying forests. She knew that the most important thing was to find fresh water. When Julian found a river, she followed it. She knew that there were often villages near a river. She walked for days. She often met dangerous animals along the way. When the animals attacked her, she fought them with a stick.

Police were looking for people who were still alive after the accident, but after 240 hours, they decided to give up. They thought they would never find anyone. Two days later, Julian walked out of the forest, hungry and tired, but alive.
