Each passage is follo w ed by se v eral questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information gi v en in the passage.AIt was Thanksgiving morning. I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step.“Any old papers, lady?” asked one of them.I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.“Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking.The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich?”“Am I rich? Pity, no!”I looked at my worn-out slipcovers(椅套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” They left after that, holding their papers against the wind. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.I tasted the potatoes and stirred(搅动)the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too.I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am.36.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A.Lady, are you rich?B.A story of Thanksgiving DayC.Don't forget how rich you areD.Does cups and saucers match well?37.The writer let the two children come in and served them well because________.A.she wanted to sell old papers to themB.she wanted to invite them to her Thanksgiving partyC.she showed great pity and care on themD.she had the same experience as them in the past38.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A.The girl thought the writer was rich just because she wanted to make the writer happy.B.The writer had thought she wasn't rich because her supplies were not expensive.C.If cups and saucers match well, they are a best pair even though cheap.D.After hearing what they said, the writer seemed to understand what a rich life was.39.The writer left the muddy marks of little sandals on the floor for a while to________.A.show that she was a kind-hearted ladyB.remind her that she shouldn't forget how rich she wasC.leave room for readers to think about what being rich isD.prove that she had understood what meant being rich40.It can be inferred from the text that whether you are rich depends on________.A.how much money you have madeB.what attitude you have had towards lifeC.the way you help othersD.your social relationshipBAs the global financial crisis hits the economy, it's tough finding a job—especially if you're competing with thousands of other hopeful students. Sometimes you get the interview, but don't quite seem to land the job because you don't have related experience. Don't despair! Here are a few tips that might give you an edge.★Get connected to your network and try to expand it. Talk to friends, family and acquaintances. Let everyone know you are looking for a job.★Prepare your resume (个人简历) carefully and be sure it's perfect. Have someone else read it over for typos (打字错误) and grammatical errors. Get professional help. It's worth the money to present yourself well. If money is tight, read books on resume writing from your public library or search for free help on the Internet.★ When you apply for a job, be sure you match and list any skills listed on the posting with the skills you have. If you get an interview, be sure to describe those skills thoroughly. Just having the skills is not enough. Expressing your abilities well can make all the difference in getting the job.★Research typical interview questions and practice interviewing. Be well prepared for every interview.★ Don't be afraid to accept a position for which you are overqualified—if there's room for advancements. Many great job advancements come from first doing well at an entry-level position. If you have the right skills and attitude, it won't be long before you're in the job you want.★V olunteer for a few weeks in your field of study to gain experience if you feel your resume needs an improvement.★ When deciding what to wear for an interview, think about the position level and the dress code of the organization.★ Use every tool available to you. For example, this site has many job links for your use.Good luck!41.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason for the failing to find a job?A.The global financial crisis.B.The serious competence.C.Your lack in related skills.D.Your lack in related experience.42.What's the author's advice on the resume?A.To read it over several times by yourself.B.To get professional help even if it costs.C.To copy something from books.D.To publish it on the Internet.43.If you lack related experience you can________.A.make up some in your resumeB.read books to get second-handed oneC.do some related voluntary workD.get some training at schools44.Which of the following statements on interviews is RIGHT?A.Have a few questions ready to ask the interviewer.B.Describe clearly your ability to the interviewer.C.Refuse the interviewer's offer of another position.D.Wear new clothes for the interview.45.The purpose of the text is to________.A.show how to prepare for an interviewB.wish people good luckC.encourage people not to despairD.give advice on how to find a jobCBoys need friends, suffer when they don't believe they have any, and worry over the ups and downs of relationships. Many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in truth, though, no boy is an island; boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence and are happier and healthier when they have solid relationships with peers(同龄人).Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends a very important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are. A recent study of 10 to 15-year-old boys and girls found that girls' friendships are actually more fragile. Girls tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the end of a friendship.Boys are the living definition of the phrase “peer group”;they love games with rules, competition, and doing things together. Boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves against others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate(空手道) class or on the basketball court. Competence and skill are widely respected; being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an experience that can haunt(萦绕心头) a boy for years.As boys mature, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include girls. During the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boy's life—and a part in which his parents are not included. The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds with friends. There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is “always there for me”,someone he can trust. They may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the friendship of adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep.46.The common belief of adults is that boys________.A.don't care about others as much as girlsB.don't value friendship as much as girlsC.have the same friendship as girlsD.have healthier friendship than girls47.According to the text, boys' friendship________.A.is usually built around active playB.tends to be in small groupsC.can bear mutual hurt between friendsD.doesn't suffer from failure48.The author mentions the study in the second paragraph to prove ________.A.many people believe girls are better at relationshipsB.most boys consider their friends very importantC.boys may be better at keeping friendships than girlsD.boys may be more active in a friendship49.As a boy gets older, he tends to________.A.widen his circle of friends to include different kinds of peopleB.shift his focus from his friends to himselfC.leave his parents out of his friendshipD.be confused about what a friendship is50.What's the best title for the text?A.Friendships between Boys and GirlsB.Boys and Their FriendshipC.Childhood and Adolescent FriendshipD.Tips on Making Friends with BoysPart ⅢWriting(45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions:Read the follo w ing passage.Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each ans w er.The atmosphere is a gaseous envelope that surrounds the Earth. It is a collection of gases, vapor and particulates surrounding the Earth.The atmosphere is very important to life on this planet because, firstly, it acts as a system for cycling and recycling carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen; living things transform these elements into sources of carbohydrates and proteins for nourishment(营养). Secondly, it protects us from invisible threats such as the harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Thirdly, it protects the Earth’s surface from rapid heating during the day and rapid cooling down at night. Lastly, it provides us with the air we breathe as it is our basic life support system; every breath we take requires oxygen in the air.However, human activities are causing the emission of harmful gases into the atmosphere. This has resulted in many environmental and health problems. Urban air pollution, acid rain, contamination by toxic chemicals, the lessening of the stratospheric ozone layer and changes in the global climatic system are all important environmental threats to the atmosphere.Air pollutionOur planet is becoming choked with poisonous gases mostly from our daily activities like driving cars, warming out house and running power stations. And pollution doesn’t need a passport to travel around the world.Ozone depletionFor years, chlorofluorocarbons(CFCs)were used as a cooling device in freezers and air conditioners. CFCs destroy the ozone layer, the layer that filters(过滤)ultraviolet radiation from the sun which causes eye damage and skin cancer.The greenhouse effectAs more greenhouse gases released in the atmosphere reflect more heat back to the Earth, it causes a rise in temperature, beyond that which is considered to be normal. Rising temperature will cause the climate change, which may lead to more natural disasters, extinction(灭绝)of some animals and plants. Additionally, while passing through surface, some is lost in space. Greenhouse gases reflect back some solar energy and make the atmosphere hotter.Humans are damaging the atmosphere, which serves to be our coat. One day it deserves their right. And the world is warming up, the polar icecaps to melt, sea levels to rise and extreme weather conditions to occur more frequently.Section B(Directions:Read the follo w ing passage.Ans w er the questions according to the information gi v en in the passage.Jaime Alfonso Escalante was considered one of the best teachers in the United States. He was born in 1930 in La Paz, Bolivia. He taught math and science in his home country for twelve years.In the 1960s, Jaime Escalante and his wife Fabiola came to the United States. During the next several years, he learned to speak English and repeated his college education and teacher training.In 1974, Mr. Escalante was hired at Garfield High School to teach mathematics. The school was in a poor area of Los Angeles, California. Many of the students in the school had serious problems with illegal drugs, gangs and violence. The school was in danger of losing its official approval to operate.Mr. Escala nte’s students were mostly Mexican-Americans from a Spanish-speaking area of the city. Many were the worst students at the school and thought to be “unteachable”.But Mr. Escalante pushed the group to work hard. He told them basic math was too easy and that they had the ability to do harder work.Jaime Escalante started an advanced math program with a small group of students. Advanced Placement is a program of college-level classes and tests. In 1982, eighteen of his students took the Advanced Placement test in calculus(微积分学). They all passed.The officials at the testing company suspected the students of cheating. Mr. Escalante protested(抗议). He said the students were being rejected because they were from a poor school. He urged his students to take the test again.Twelve of the students repeated the test. And again, They all passed. Five earned top scores. Mr. Escalante’s students went on to become engineers, scientists and university professors.Jaime Escalante received many teaching awards.

In the year 1902,toy bears were named “Teddy” after th e president's nickname.The Teddy Bear became known worldwide,and is still known and loved today.It was only a few years later that the Teddy Bears were mass produced.In 1913,an item called the Erector Set was invented.It was a steel,motorized toy that children could use to build models of anything.Its creator was A.C.Gilbert,a medical doctor.Charles Pajeau created a similar wooden set called Tinker Toys in the year 1914.Tinker Toys were made for younger children.Raggedy Ann dolls first came on the scene after newspaper cartoonist Johnny Gruelle reproduced the doll he made for his daughter.That was in 1915.The following year,an architect's son named John Lloyd Wright,invented Lincoln Logs,which were interlocked to make structures. Two years after Mickey Mouse was created,stuffed(填塞)Mickey Mouse dolls were made by Charlotte Clark.This was the start of Disney merchandise.The yo-yo became popular in the United States after Donald Duncan bought a yo-yo company in 1929. The View-Master,a three dimensional viewer,was developed by a camera enthusiast named William Gruber.The toy became popular when Gruber licensed Disney characters to make still,3-D images from Disney movies and television programs.Finally,in 1940,model airplanes were mass produced.They started out as a way for manufacturers to sell planes to the military,but later caught on as a toy.The toys that we know and love today have had their roots from these ancient times.Isn't it interesting to know that if it hadn't been for all these creative people,most of the games you know today would never have been?46.Why were toy bears named “Teddy”?A.To be suitable for mass production. B.To be easily pronounced by children.C.To meet the advertisers' needs. D.To memorize President Theodore Roosevelt.47.In which aspect do the toys created by Gilbert differ from those by Charles?A.Shape. B.Material used. C.Themes. D.Price.48.When did the View-Master become popular?A.After William Gruber was born. B.After Gruber licensed Disney characters.C.Two years after Mickey Mouse was created. D.When Disney merchandise was started.B“In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.”“Two full inches in the first three days!”These are the kinds of statements used in magazine,newspaper,radio and television ads,promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device. The promoters of products say they can shape the legs,slim the face,smooth wrinkles,or in some other way to add to beauty or desirability.Often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoters. The results they produce are questionable,and some are dangerous to health.To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public,it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation. If the product is a drug,FDA(Food and Drug Administration)can require proof under the Food,Drug,and Cosmetic Act that is safe and effective before it is put on the market.But if the product is a device,FDA has no authority to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. If a product already on the market is a danger to health,FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily,or it can take legal action,including seizure(查封)of the product.One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor,which had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life.Obviously,most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings(法律诉讼),and new devices appear continually. Before buying,it is up to the consumer to judge the safety oreffectiveness of such items.49.It can be inferred that the ads mentioned in the text are________.A.objective B.costly C.unreliable D.illegal50. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A.The court is in charge of removing dangerous products.B.New products are more likely to be questionable.C.The production of a device must be approved by FDA.D.The promoters usually just care about profits.51.FDA can ask for the proof of safety and effectiveness of a product________.A.if it is a drug B.if it is a deviceC.if its consumers make complaints D.if its distributors challenge FDA's authority52.The Relaxacisor is mentioned as________.A.a product which was designed to produce electricityB.a product whose distributor was involved in a legal caseC.a successful advertisement of a beauty productD.an example of a quality beauty productCChristopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance.After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created , a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.Jason Swencki's son, Kody, was diagnosed with diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over,” says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. “They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone.”Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity(慈善机构), Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. has raised about $ 23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his fulltime job waiting tables. “Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure,” says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members. “But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now.53.Which of the following is TRUE of Christopher Thomas?A.He needs to go to the doctor every day. B.He studies the leading cause of diabetes.C.He has a positive attitude to this disease. D.He encourages diabetics by writing articles.54. was created for ________.A.diabetics to communicate B.volunteers to find jobsC.children to amuse themselves D.rock stars to share resources55.According to the text, Kody ________.A.feels lonely because of his illness B.benefits from C.helps create the online kid's forums D.writes children's stories online56.What can we learn about Fight It?A.It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties. B.It organizes parties for volunteer once a year. C.It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics. D.It owns a well-known medical website.DMotorists who used to listen to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves, after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of “melody roads”,which use cars as tuning forks(音叉)to play music as they travel.The concept works by using grooves(凹槽).They are cut at very specific intervals in the road surface. The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes.Depending on how far apart the grooves are, a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes, and designers are able to create a distinct tune.Patent documents for the design describe it as notches(刻痕)“formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melodylike tones”.There are three musical strips in central and northern Japan—one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song. Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda.He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer(推土机)before driving over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones.The optimal speed for melody road is 44 kph,but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound.“You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well,”wrote one Japanese blogger.“Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward, while driving around 12 mphhas a slow-motion effect, making you a lmost carsick.”57.According to the passage,melody roads use________to create different notes.A.cars B.grooves C.spaces between intervals D.bulldozers58.We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes is depended on________.A.how far the grooves are B.how big the grooves areC.the number of the grooves D.the speed of the car59.The underlined word “optimal” in the passage might mean________.A.fastest B.possible C.best D.suitable60.In order to hear the music well,you have to________.A.drive very fast B.drive slowlyC.open the windows wide D.keep the windows closed第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)From the several hours I spend a day at my gym I get to observe all types of gym goers. One thing most of them have in common is that they all appear to be lost. The gym, much like a dense forest, can be a very scary place and if you don’t have a plan you can end up forgetting where you are or where you are going. Here are a few things you must do if you want to guarantee success at the gym. 62.________If you’re going to venture into the forest it would seem smart to have a general idea of wher e you are going and why you are going there. The first question you must ask yourself is “why”?Why are you even working out? It sounds simple but if you cannot come up with a good enough answer then you may be wasting your time. You see, if you are wo rking out based on other people’s values of what a healthy lifestyle is, then you may be setting yourself up for failure. Once you understand why then you must figure out what you would like the end result to be. You should choose something specific and you should write it down. How many pounds would you like to lose? What size clothes do you want to fit in? How many points off your cholesterol would you like to drop? Ask yourself specific questions and have answers for them. Next you must decide when you would like to have reached these goals. Create specific times and dates. Mark them down on your calendar. 63.________Once you know where you want to go you must now figure out the path you would like to take to get there. In fitness there are many paths to choose from and it can be quite confusing. While some paths may be quicker or more appropriate to take than others it is most important to just pick one and stay with it. Every time you enter that gym have a clear idea of what is going to happen. Know what pieces of equipment you need to use, know how many sets you must perform and have a good idea how long it should take you to complete the workout.64.________There will be times when it may seem hard to stay on track. Whether you’re traveli ng, someone is using a piece of equipment you need to use, or work gets in the way. It will be important for you to learn to improvise in these situations. Plan ahead when traveling, have alternate exercises in mind, and learn to adapt when change occurs. But in the end, always trust in the course you have previously mapped out for yourself. Come back to it and adhere to it as accurately as possible.65.________Always keep a fitness journal. Otherwise you will find it very hard to keep track of where you have been and where you are going. Write down all exercises performed, how much weight used, how you felt, and if you think you can do better the next time you will work out. This is one of the most overlooked and powerful tools when it comes to attaining your goals.第一节单词拼写(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)66.Jackson is an unusual young man, and he always has________(怪诞的) ideas. 67.There are 12 counties and 6 ________(区) in our city.68.The girl dreamt of being a member of the ________(地位较高的) classes.69.What he told me was the________(相对) of what you told me.70.Shenzhou Ⅶ was a great ________(重大突破) in China’s space exploration.71.The singer finally came into the stadium, being________(陪伴) by masses of her fans. 72.The news report ________ (证实) that Obama had already been elected president of the USA. 73.In my opinion, my neighbour, Mr. Black is________ (乐观的).74.Nowadays, few people write letters to relatives or friends ________(偶尔).75.I don’t like to always do the same work.
