It was already dark when an old man came to a small town. He found an inn and wanted to stay there for the night. After he had gone to his room, the owner said to his wife, “Look at his bag, dear. I’m sure there are lots of valuable things in it. I want to steal it when he is asleep.”
“No, no,” said the woman. “He must look for his bag tomorrow morning. Then he’ll take you before the judge.” They t hought and at last the woman had an idea. “We have forgetful grass,”said the woman, “Why not put some into his food? If he has the food, he will forget to take his bag away.” “How clever you are!” said the owner, “Don’t forget it when you prepare supper for him.”
The old man had the food with the forgetful grass and went to bed. The next morning, when the owner got up, he found the door was open and the old man had left with his bag. He woke his wife up and said angrily, “What a fool! Your forgetful gra ss isn’t useful at all.”
“No, no,” said the woman. “I don’t think so. He must forget something.”

America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways — education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the graying（老龄化）of America has made us a very different society — one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.
A person’s age no longer tells you anything about his / her social position, marriage or health. There’s no longer a particular yea r in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn’t as strong as it used to be. It doesn’t surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.
Many people say, "I am much younger than my mother-or my father- was at my age." No one says "Act your age" anymore. We’ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.
25、It can be learned from the text that the aging of the population in America ______.
A、has made people feel younger
B、has changed people’s social position
C、has changed people’s understanding of age
D、has slowed down the country’s social development
26、The underlined word ‘one’ refers to _______.
A、a society
B、America
C、a place
D、population
27、"Act your age" means people should _______.
A、be active when they are old
B、do the right thing at the right age
C、show respect to their parents young or old
D、take more physical exercises suitable to their age
28、If a 25-year-old man become general manager of a big firm, the writer
of the text would most probably consider it _______.
A、normal
B、wonderful
C、unbelievable
D、unreasonable
C
A couple had two little boys aged 8 and 10 who were very naughty、They were always getting into trouble and their parents knew that if any trouble occurred in their town their sons were probably involved.
The boys' mother heard that a clergyman（牧师） in the town had been successful in educating children so she asked if he would speak with her boys、The clergyman agreed but asked to see them individually、So the mother sent her 8-year-old first in the morning with the elder boy to see the clergyman in the afternoon.
The clergyman, a huge man with a booming （嗡嗡） voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him strictly, "Where is God?"
The boy's mouth dropped open but he made no answer, sitting there with his mouth hanging open, wide-eyed、So the clergyman repeated the question in an even stricter tone "Where is God?" Again the boy made no attempt to answer、So the clergyman raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and shouted" Where is God?"
The boy screamed and escaped from the room, ran directly home and dove into his closet, slamming the door behind him、When his elder brother found him in the closet, he asked "What happened?"
The younger brother replied out of breath, "We are in big trouble this time、God is missing--and they think we did it、"
29、What were the two boys like?
A、They always made trouble、
B、They were brave.
C、They were easygoing.
D、They were honest.
30、What did their parents plan to do?
A、They gave up their children.
B、They liked their children very much.
C、They wanted the clergyman to persuade their children、
D、They helped their children to make trouble.
31、What do you suppose the boy felt when he was asked by the clergyman?
A、Happy、
B、Sad.
C、Afraid、
D、Surprised.
32、What do you think the underlined word "slamming" in Paragraph 5 means?
A、Open、
B、Shut、
C、Knock、
D、Pull.

It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.
The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries（食品杂货）, saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.
I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity （人性）as a whole. And it has influenced（影响）us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.
33、Why was the bike so important to the couple?
A、The man’s job was bike racing.
B、It was their only possession.
C、It was a nice Kona 18 speed.
D、They used it for work and daily life.
34、We can infer from the text that ____________.
A、the couple worked 60 hours a week.
B、people were busy before Christmas
C、the stranger brought over the bike
D、life was hard for the young family.
35、How did peo ple get to know the couple’s problem?
A、From radio broadcasts.
B、From a newspaper.
C、From TV news.
D、From a stranger. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分）

Millions of people all over the world use the word OK、In fact, some people say the word is used more often than any other word in the world、OK means all right or acceptable、It expresses agreement or approval、

But many people doubt this、Language expert Allen Walker Read wrote about the word “OK” in reports publ ished in the 1960s、He said the word began being used in the 1830s、 37 Some foreign-born people wrote “ all correct” as “o-l-l-k-o-r-r-e-c-t”, and used the letters OK、Other people say a railroad worker named Obadiah Kelly invented the word long ago、They said he put the first letters of his name---O and K---on each object people gave him to send on the train、
38 The organization supported Martin Van Buren for president in 1840、They called their group the OK club、The letters were taken from the name of the town where Martin was born---Old Kinderhook, New York、Then there is the expression A-OK、It is a space-age expression、It was used in 1961 during the flight of astronaut Alan Shepard、He was the first American to be launched into space、His flight ended when his spacecraft landed in the ocean, as planned、Shepard report ed, “Everything is A-OK.” 39 One
story says it was first used during the early days of the telephone to tell an operator that a message had been received、
There are also funny ways to say okay、 40 These expressions were first used in the 1930s、Today, a character on the American television series “The Simpsons” says it another way、

Until recently daydreaming was viewed as a waste of time or it 61 (consider) an unhealthy escape from real life and its duties. But now some people are taking a fresh look at daydreaming. Some think it may be a very 62 (health) thing to do. Some researchers are finding that daydreaming may
be important to mental health. Daydreaming, they tell us, 63 a good means of relaxation. But its benefits go 64 this. A number of psychologists have conducted experiments and have reached some 65 (surprise) conclusion.
Dr. Joan T. Freyberg has concluded that daydreaming contributes growth.
It also improves 66
(concentrate),attention span, and the ability to get along with others. Industrialist Henry J.Kaiser believed that much of his success was due 67 the positive use of daydreaming. Florence Nightingale dreamed of becoming
a nurse. The young Thomas Edison pictured 68 as an inventor.
For these notable achievers, it appears that their daydreams came 69 .Dr Harry Emerson Fosdick offered this advice: “Hold a picture of yourself…in your mind’s eye, and you will be drawn toward it. Picture yourself 70 (vivid) as defeated and that alone will make victory impossible.

Third-generation mobile phones, known as 3G, are the next big step for the telecom industry. Data speed in 3G networks is much quicker than that
in present technology. This means users can have high-speed Internet access
and enjoy video and CD-quality music on their phones.
"Mobile data is not a dream; it's not an option but a requirement," said Len Lauer, head of a U.S. Communications company, Sprint PCS, at a 3G conference in Bangkok earlier this month.
With 3G, you can forget about text messages telling you yesterday's news;
a 3G phone can receive video news programs, updated four times a day. Internet access will also be much quicker, making it easier to surf the We
b on your phone than on your computer at home.
Face-to-Face video calls
Don't worry about getting lost, 3G phones offer map services so you can find a new restaurant just by pressing a few keys on your handset.
However, the most impressive part of 3G technology is video calling. With live two-way video communication, you can have face-to-face talks with friends and family on your mobile phone.
Many European countries have already launched the services. In May 2000 the U.S. Government issued five license to run 3G wireless services, while the first 3G phones arrived in Italy in March this year.
International telecom companies can't wait to sell 3G in China, the world's largest mobile telecommunications market. But they will have to be patient. At the moment, China is busy testing its 3G-based technologies, networks and services. This will be followed by a trial period before the phones can finally hit the shops.
"We need to create a pool of 3G customers before the large-scale commercial launch of the service," said Fan Yunjun, marketing manager for Beijing Mobile.
"We expect that the 3G licences will be issued late next year."

书面表达One possible version:
Dear Editor,
I am a high school student who will graduate next year. Since I was in Grade Two, I have found that some of the students in our class study harder than before. They study late into night, eating snacks and drinking Coca-Cola, which is bad for their health. In the morning, due to staying up too late, some students "sleep in " and have to go to school without breakfast, which is also a bad habit and will surely o harm to their health.
In my opinion, though we are under heavy study pressure, we should try to eat properly and get as much rest as possible. Only in this way can we keep fit and study well.
I wonder if you agree with me. I am looking forward t hearing from you soon. Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
