His feelings 41 him; he fell upon his 42 , looked up to heaven and let out a sincere thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife, sick and 43 , and his children without bread, whom the timely giving, from some unknown hand, would save from dying.The student stood there deeply affected, his eyes filled with tears.“Now,〞said the professor,“Are you not much better pleased than if you had played your 44 trick?〞The youth replied, “You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget.I feel now the 45 of those words, which I never understood before: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’〞26.A.hanging B.lyingC.sitting D.hiding27.A.nearly B.seeminglyC.closely D.equally28.A.looked back B.referred to C.turned to D.puzzled over29.A.fun B.amusementC.entertainment D.trick30.A.opinion B.confusionC.emotion D.enthusiasm31.A.treat B.dedicateC.amuse D.occupy32.A.healthy B.kindC.mean D.rich33.A.coin B.pennyC.dollar D.pound 34.A.pleasure B.discovery C .tiredness D.possibility35.A.and B.butC.thus D.therefore36.A.around B.acrossC.into D.toward37.A.taking on B.looking on C.putting on D.hanging on 38.A.hard B.tightC.soft D.loose 39.A.that B.itC.themselves D.himself 40.A.folded B.acceleratedC.doubled D.improved41.A.mastered B.beatC.betrayed D.overcame42.A.hands B.kneesC.feet D.legs 43.A.beautiful B.mercilessC.hopeful D.helpless44.A.intended B.requiredC.wanted D.interested45.A.faith B.fact C.truth D.reliabilityPart three :阅读理解A 篇Mistakes are a part of life. To err is human. Failure is also a part of life, not the end of life. Be happy facing life’s challenges. When you make the effort to be happy and to improve your life, you are actually rewarded along the way.Life is like a game and maybe you can award(奖励) points for every effort that has been a success for you. Try it. Add ten points for every achievement. And when you have reached 50 points, ju st yell, “ Hey, I’ve won!〞 and give yourself a reward. If you happen to have missed your points for whatever reason, tell yourself, “Well, I tried!〞which is better than not trying at all. Don’t let it be said you didn’t try.What is it that you want to make yourself happy? Actually happiness means different things to different people. For example, an athlete will be happy winning his first race. For a new mother happiness would be seeing her baby’s first steps. Happiness for a poor person would mean having a meal just for today. So happiness for you is really something simple that you want for yourself.It really doesn’t have to be big. As a matter of fact you should always have realistic expectations. Make the best out of every given situation. If you expect a certain result from a situation and it does not happen, don’t get despondent. This just means trying harder next time. We all have in us the power to succeed. Don’t let “ give up 〞 be a part of your vocabulary.47.By saying “To err is human〞, the author means that________.A. human beings should try to avoid(防止) making mistakesB. no one is perfect(完美的) and everyone makes mistakesC. mistakes and failures make up our lifD. human beings make mistakes easily48. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. Try to reach 50 points.B. Never stop trying in your life.C. Award yourself for your successD. Don’t be afraid of missing your points.49. The author proves his idea in Paragraph 3 through_________.A. exampesB. numbersC. experimentsD. stories50. The underlined word “ despondent 〞 in the last paragraph means________.A. frightenedB. disappointedC. surprisedD. excitedB篇Weather changes when the temperature and the amount of water in the atmosphere change. We can see and feel water coming from the atmosphere when we have rain. But the water must somehow get back to the atmosphere. Meteorologists call this the water cycle.There are many stages in the water cycle. Rain falls when water vapour in clouds condenses(凝结). Drops of water form and fall to the ground. The water soaks intothe ground and feeds streams and rivers. A lot of rain falls into the sea. The heat of the sun evaporates some of the water in the ground and in the rivers, lakes, and the sea. It changes the liquid water into water vapour. The vapour rises onto the air. Water vapour is normally invisible. On a very damp or humid day, however, you can sometimes see water vapour rising from a puddle(水坑) or pond in a mist(薄雾) above the water. Water vapour also gets into the air from living things. Trees and other plants take in water through their roots and give off water vapour from their leaves. People and land animals drink water and breathe out water vapour. In all these ways the water returns to the air. There it gathers to form clouds and condenses to form rain. The rain falls to earth, and the cycle starts again. It continues even if snow or hail(冰雹) fall instead because both eventually melt to form water. The amount of water vapour in the air depends on the temperature. The air is more moist(潮湿) in the tropics(热带) than in the cold polar regions.51. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Water cycle.B. Water vapour.C. How rain forms.D. Water, vapour, rain.52. How many ways of the water returning to the air are discussed in the text?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.53. Whether water vapour can be seen or not depends on _______.A. how much water is evaporatedB. how good your eyes areC. in which way water is evaporatedD. climate or weather54. From the passage we get to know _______.A. there is more water vapour in the air in the tropics than in cold polar regionsB. there is more water vapour in the air in cold polar region than in the tropicsC. it gets more rain in the tropics than in cold polar regions because there is less vapourD. the amount of water vapour in the air depends on how often it rains26-45BACDB CDABA .

Sociologists(社会学家)and psychologists(心理学家)are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effects of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies have shown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly (显然地)change. They cannotsleep and eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate(适当的)space not only desirable, but essential for human survival?56. What is the purpose of the experiments described in the passage?A. To determine how much living space a rat needs.B. To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C. To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D. to find out the relationship between population and living conditions.57. Which is NOT a result of being too crowded for rats?A.They become nervous.B. they show signs of fear.C.They eat less.D. They become less active.58. The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions _________A.are directly related with populationB.may cause an increase in violenceC.may lead to high birth rateD.may bring about pollution problems59. The author seems to imply that _________.A. human society is very similar to that of ratsB. B. birth control is essential for a better lifeC. efforts should be made to improve living conditionsD. rats are not social animalsBWASHINGTON: Chinese scientist Yuan Longping and Dr Monty Jones of Sierra Leone were named co-winners of the 2004 World Food Prize here on Monday for their contribution to world food security and rice production. In announcing the recipients in a ceremony held at the US State Department, President of the World Food Prize Foundation Kenneth Quinn lauded both scientists for their “breakthrough scientific achievements” which have significantly increased food security for millions of people from Asia to Africa. Quinn said it was particularly fitting that the two pioneering rice breeders be awarded the prize during the United Nations International Yearof Rice, the crop identified as the staple(主要的) diet of more than 3 billion people around the world. Professor Yuan Longping is director general of the China National Hybrid Rice (杂交水稻)Research and Development Centre in Hunan Province, China. Jones is presently executive secretary of Forum for Agricultural Research in Africa.

But people in the Australian outback can’t get to a doctor quickly. The nearest doctor is sometimes hundreds of kilometers away so they have to call him on a two-way radio. This special doctor is called the “flying doctor”. He visits sick people by plane.When someone is very sick, the doctor has to fly to the person’s home. His plane lands on a flat piece of ground near the person’s house. Sometimes the doctor has to take the patient to hospital. Flying doctors take about 8,600 people to hospital each year.However, most of the time the person isn’t very sick, and the doctor doesn’t have to visit. He can give advice on the radio from the office at the flying doctor center. He can tell the patient to use some medicine from a special medicine chest (箱子). There is one of these chests in every home in the outback. Each bottle, tube (管子) and packet (包) in the chest has a number. The doctor often says something like this,“take two tablets (药片) from bottle 5 every four hours.”63. Some people in the Australian outback can’t get to a doctor quickly.

Many grown-ups are doing so in their spare time. Everybody knows his own language, but to know another is very useful.Which is the best way to learn a language? We should remember what weall learnt our own language well when we were children. If we could learn a second language in the same way, it would not seem so difficult. Think of what a child does. It listens to what people say and it tries to imitate(模仿) what it heard. When it wants something, it has to ask for it. It is using the language. It is talking in it and thinking in it all the time, they would learn it quickly.It is important to remember, also, that we learn our own language by hearing people speak it not by seeing what they write. We imitate what we hear. In school, though you learn to read and write as well as to hear and speak, it is best to learn all new words through the ear. Of course, you must listen to them, spell them, and write them, too.There is no easy way to success in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize(记住)rules from a grammar book. It is not much use learning by heart long lists or words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on.. We must learn by using the language. If we are satisfied with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. “Learning through practice” is a piece of good advice for those who are learning a new language. Practice is important as much as we can. We learn to swim by getting into the water and swimming. And we learn to speak English by speaking it and not by being told about it.68.The writer’s main purpose in writing this passage is to tell .A.something about foreign languageB.the beginners how to learn a foreign languageC.the readers how to imitate othersD.something about how to practise listening and speaking69.People know their native language well only because .A.they know their native language is usefulB.they learn it by reading and writingC.they learn it by hearing it and master it by usingD.they treat it as their own language70.It would be if we learn a second language in the same way as we learned the first one according to the passage.A.easy B.possible C.difficult D.A and B71.Which of the following is True?A.Only school children are learning foreign languages.B.People know their own language well only after they grow up.
