Polly’s son, Jim, had great difficulty in school. He was classified as the educationally handicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. His parents knew his difficulties, but they always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. Shortly after Jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. After his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper.“Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was killed in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known that the last time I had talked to him would be the last time. If I had only known that, I would have said to him, ‘Jim, I love you and I’m always so proud of you.’ I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he had brought to the lives of the people who loved him. I would have taken the time to appreciate his beautiful smile, his laughter, and his genuine love to other people.“When I put all the good things on the scale and try to balance them with all the irritating (恼人的) things such as the radio that was always too loud, the haircut that wasn’t to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., I find that the irritations really don’t amount to much.“I won’t get another chance to tell my son all that I would have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, do have a chance. Tell your young people what you would want them to hear as if it may be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was the morning of the day when he died. He called me to say, ‘Hi, Mom! I just called to say I love you. You have to go to work now. Bye.’ That day, he gave me something to treasure forever. ”If there is any purpose at all for Jim’s death, maybe it is to make others appreciate life more and to tell people, especially family members, that they should take the time to let each other know just how much they care. You may never have another chance. Do it today!1. Who was Jim?A. A school boy.B. The writer.C. The president of a school board.D. An official of a school.2. What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase “the educationally handicapped”?A. The learning difficulty.B. The physical problems.C. The psychological problems.D. The communication difficulty.3. According to the writer, which of the following about Jim is TRUE？A. He was always sad about his school marks.B. His parents always scolded him about his bad school marks.C. His study needed more attention from his parents and teachers.D. He was killed in a car accident.4. What did Polly think of Jim?A. He was a lovely boy with a beautiful smile who always loved others.B. He was physically sick but always happy.C. He was an irritating boy with some bad habits.D. He seldom expressed his love for his parents.5. T he purpose of Polly’s l etter is to .A. memorize her sonB. teach parents to appreciate their childrenC. teach children how to be good boysD. give some advice on how to deal with children’s problem sBWhile IQ (Intelligence Quotient) tells you how smart you are. EQ (Emotional Quotient) tells you how well you use your smartness. Professor Salovery, the psychologist who created the term, EQ, says that it is IQ that gets you hired but it is EQ that gets you promoted.Supported by his research, he suggested tha t when predicting future successes, a person’s brainpower, as measured by IQ tests, might actually matter less than a person’s character, or EQ. Professor Salovery may be correct. For example, have you ever wondered why some of the best and smartest students in your class end up failing exams? Perhaps it is because of their EQ. People often make the mistake of thinking that EQ is the opposite of IQ. It is not. Although it is hoped that people have both high EQs and IQs, there is little doubt that those with low EQs have a hard time surviving in life.For a long time, researchers discussed if a person’s IQ could be raised. The geneticists said no, while the social scientists said yes. Furthermore, the social scientists said that it was possible to improve a person’s EQ, particularly in terms of “people skills”, such as understanding and communication.Recently, a professor released the findings of a study on senior high school students. When some normal students were introduced to some disabled students, they found that afterwards they were more willing to help people in difficulties. At the same time, there was a marked change in the disabled students’ attitudes. They became more positive about their disabilities and were more eager to try new things. People with high EQs often have positive attitudes towards life and are open to different ideas, so they tend to be more creative in their thinking. Please remember that having a high IQ is helpful but having a high EQ might even be more helpful.6. According to Professor Salovery, what factor matters the most in predicting whether a personwill be successful or not?A. How a person tests his / her brainpower.B. A person’s character.C. How smart a person is.D. A person’s IQ.7. The second paragraph tells us that .A. people who have a high IQ always have a high EQB. EQ is the opposite of IQC. people who have a low EQ tend to have a hard lifeD. people who have a high EQ always have a high IQ8. What did the professor find from his study of normal students being introduced to somedisabled children?A. Students with disabilities were not open in trying new things.B. There was no change in the normal students.C. The disabled students became more positive and more eager to try new things.D. The disabled students were more willing to help others.9. Which of the following is the writer’s attitude toward EQ and IQ?A. IQ is more helpful to people than EQ.B. IQ can be raised by understanding and communication.C. EQ can get people hired.D. A high EQ is of great benefit in getting people promoted.10. Which of the following would be the best title of this passage?A. A person’s brainpower.B. IQ, EQ and success.C. IQ and a person’s character.D. A person’s IQ and EQ.参考答案一．听写(每题1分,共10分)1.household2.desire3.favor4.absurd 5 cushion 6.envy 7.digital 8.cuisine 9.receiver 10.junior二.单选(每题1分,共15分)1-5 DBBDA 6-10 BABAB 11-15 DBCAC三．完形填空（每小题1分，满分10分）1-5 BBAAA 6-10 CBBDC四．阅读理解（每小题2分，共20分）1-5 AACAB 6-10 BCCDB。

I’ve never watched her show, but when a self-made billionaire gives life advice it’s probably worth listening to.Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you. If you’ re a Chinese，you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.A book by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman, called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier. It’s not about going to a temple to burn some incense (香) in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune; it’s practical advice you can follow each day.Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies. First he divided volunteers into two groups：those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not. He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds. Why? On the second page of the newspaper, a command, “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper,” was written in big letters. The unluckypeople mostly did not spot the message.It’s easy to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper. They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity. People who are “lucky”, in fact, keep an open mind and don’t go through the same routine every day.I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do. Like many foreigners，my plan was to teach English for one year. Seven years later, and still here, I’ve had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines. I did not dream these would have been possible. I’ve also never been sick, had an accident, go t into a fight or had problems with the police. Coincidence? After reading about Professor Wiseman’s studies I think not.As Wiseman advises, I usually trust my own judgment. Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational thinking, but it’s important to consider how you feel about each choice you make. Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential problem.Finally, try to turn bad luck into good. Even if you do fall down and break a leg, the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.31. Which of the following proverbs most agrees with the writer’s point?A. Make the best of a bad job.B. Rome was not built in a day.C. All is not gold that glitters.D. Every dog has its day.32. What do you know about Oprah Winfrey?A. She was very lucky and seldom suffered setbacks in her life.B. She is a British talk show host.C. She became famous through her family background.D. She became successful by her own effort.33. The writer quoted the Chinese tale of a farmer in order to show_______.A. luck is in your own handB. bad luck can turn into goodC. one shouldn’t rely on blind luckD. man can conquer nature34. From the experiment Wiseman drew the conclusion that ________.A. lucky people are quick-mindedB. unlucky people are slow to readC. lucky people often have an open mindD. unlucky people are more creative35. From the passage we can learn that ________.A. in many foreigners’ eyes, to teach English in China was believed to be something strange in 2002B. those who believe in blind luck never go to temples to burn some incense in hope of good luckC. based on rational thinking, the advice of your friends usually warns you of a potential problemD.

The people around were shocked, angry and blaming the wrongdoers. I learned it was a student from a famous university in Beijing who cause the trouble. He pulled sulfur and acid onto the bears pretending to feed it.What a shame! Animals are our friends and something must be done to prevent them frominjured.Sincerely YoursLi Hua五．按要求完成句子(14分)1.

Nearly every robot has been made in some way 1 up to a certain level or temperature. The machine will wait for “feedback” about the water2 or temperature before it begins the washing cycle. In this way, a washing machine has been patterned after humans. We depend on3 from our five senses to find out what is happening around us and then make decisions about our actions.Of course, some machines perform functions like humans, but much 4 than we do, such as calculators. A pocket calculator works faster than a human, never makes mistakes, and doesn’t get 5 or bored.Other robots are very similar to humans in their ability 6 new things. In factories, robots can learn to do many different tasks, as they are shown by a human operator. For example, in a car factory, a person will guide a robot’s “arm” and “7 ” through the steps of the new job. The robot’s electronic “brain” will8 the information away, memorizing the steps so the next time it 9 can repeat the movements without a human operator. When the robot must be moved to a new job, its memory is 10 so it is ready to learn the next job. Of course, at any time if there is anything 11in the process, different from the original task, the robot cannot 12 with it. It will signal for an engineer to come for repairs.Some robots are considered very intelligent because they have more human abilities than others, such as “seeing” 13 cameras for eyes or “feeling” with metal fingers that can14 shapes and even temperatures.

Such enormous numbers used to discourage us and cause us to dismiss the possibility of making a machine with human-like ability, but now that we have grown used to moving forward at such a pace we can be less sure. Quite soon, in only 10 or 20 years perhaps, we will be able to assemble a machine as complex as the human brain, and if we can we will. It may then take us a long time to render it intelligent by loading in the right software (软件)or by altering the architecture but that too will happen.I think it certain that in decades, not centuries, machines of silicon (硅) will arise first to compete and then do better than their human ancestors. Once they do better than us they will be capable of their own design. In a real sense they will be able to reproduce themselves. Silicon will have endedcarbon's long control. And we will no longer be able to claim ourselves to be the finest intelligence in the known universe.As the intelligence of robots increases to match that of humans and as their cost declines through economies of scale we may use them to improve environments. Thus, deserts may bloom and the ocean beds be mined. Further ahead, by a combination of the great wealth this new age will bring and the technology it will provide, the construction of a vast, man-created world in space, home to thousands or millions of people, will be within our power.（1）In what way can we make a machine intelligent? （）A. By making it work in such environments as deserts, oceans or space.B. By working hard for 10 or 20 years.C. By either properly programming it or changing its structure.D. By reproducing it.（2）What does the writer think about machines with human-like ability? （）A. He believes they will be useful to human beings.B. He believes that they will control us in the future.C. He is not quite sure in what way they may influence us.D. He doesn't consider the construction of such machines possible.（3）The word “carbon” (Line 4, Para.2) stands for _________.A. intelligent robotsB. a chemical elementC. an organic substanceD. human beings（4）It can be inferred from the passage that _______.A. after connections with phones, robots will be able to have self-reproductionB. people have come to realize the possibility of making a machine with human-like abilityC. once we make a machine as complex as the human brain, it will have intelligenceD. robots will have control of the vast, man-made world in space（二）Mark Twain has been called the inventor of the American novel.And he surely deserves additional praise：the man who popularized the clever literary attack on racism.I say clever because anti-slavery fiction had been the important part of the literature in the years before the Civil War.H.B.Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin is only the most famous example.These early stories dealt directly with slavery.With minor exceptions，Twain planted his attacks on slavery and prejudice into tales that were on the surface about something else entirely.He drew his readers into the argument by drawing them into the story.Again and again，in the postwar years，Twain seemed forced to deal with the challenge of race.Consider the most controversial，at least today，of Twain's novels，Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Only a few books have been kicked off the shelves as often as Huckleberry Finn，Twain's most widely read tale.Once upon a time，people hated the book because it struck them as rude.Twain himself wrote that those who banned the book considered the novel “trash and suitable only for the slums(贫民窟)．”More recently the book has been attacked because of the character Jim，the escaped slave，and many occurences of the word nigger.(The term Nigger Jim，for which the novel is often severely criticized，never appears in it.)But the attacks were and are silly—and miss the point.The novel is strongly anti-slavery.Jim's search through the slave states for the family from whom he has been forcibly parted is heroic.As J．Chadwick has pointed out，the character of Jim was a first in American fiction—a recognition that the slave had two personalities，“the voice of survival within a white slave culture and the voice of the individual：Jim，the father and the man.”There is much more.Twain's mystery novel Pudd'nhead Wilson stood as a challenge to the racial beliefs of even many of the liberals of his day.Written at a time when the accepted wisdom held Negroes to be inferior(低等的)to whites，especially in intelligence，Twain's tale centered in part around two babies switched at birth.A slave gave birth to her master's baby and，for fear that the child should be sold South，switched him for the master's baby by his wife.The slave's lightskinned child was taken to be white and grew up with both the attitudes and the education of theslave-holding class.The master's wife's baby was taken for black and grew up with the attitudes and intonations of the slave.The point was difficult to miss：nurture(养育)，not nature，was the key to social status.The features of the black man that provided the stuff of prejudice—manner of speech，for example—were，to Twain，indicative of nothing other than the conditioning that slavery forced on its victims.Twain's racial tone was not perfect.One is left uneasy，for example，by the lengthy passage in his autobiography(自传)about how much he loved w hat were called“nigger shows”in his youth—mostly with white men performing in black-face—and his delight in getting his mother to laugh at them.Yet there is no reason to think Twain saw the shows as representing reality.His frequent attacks on slavery and prejudice suggest his keen awareness that they did not.Was Twain a racist？Asking the question in the 21st century is as wise as asking the same of Lincoln.If we read the words and attitudes of the past through the“wisdom”of the considered moral judgments of the present，we will find nothing but error.Lincoln，who believed the black man the inferior of the white，fought and won a war to free him.And Twain，raised in a slave state，briefly a soldier，and inventor of Jim，may have done more to anger the nation over racial injustice and awaken its collective conscience than any other novelist in the past century.（1）How do Twain's novels on slavery differ from Stowe's? （）A. Twain was more willng to deal with racism.B. Twain's attack on racism was much less open.C. Twain's themes seemed to agree with plots.D. Twain was openly concerned with racism.（2）Recent criticism of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn arose partly from its________.A. target readers at the bottomB. anti-slavery attitudeC. rather impolite languageD. frequent use of “nigger”（3）What best proves Twain's anti-slavery stand according to the author? （）A. Jim's search for his family was described in detail.B. The slave's voice was first heard in American novels.C. Jim grew up into a man and a father in the white culture.D. Twain suspected that the slaves were less intelligent.（4）The story of two babies switched mainly indicates that________.A. slaves were forced to give up their babies to their mastersB. slaves' babies could pick up slave-holders' way of speakingC. blacks' social position was shaped by how they were brought upD. blacks were born with certain features of prejudice（5）What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 7 refer to? （）A. The attacks.B. Slavery and prejudice.C. White men.D. The shows. （6）What does the author mainly argue for? （）A. Twain had done more than his contemporary writers to attack racism.B. Twain was an admirable figure comparable to Abraham Lincoln.C. Twain's works had been banned on unreasonable grounds.D. Twain's works should be read from a historical point of view.四、任务型阅读（共5分）It's nice being nice to others; it's also great to give people a hand. However, if you start to hurt yourself by doing so, then this is not so healthy.________If you fear that you might fall into this category, the following tips will help you to stand up for yourself and regain your self-confidence. ________Although you may often stay silent if something is wrong or bothers you, it is better to speak your mind right away. You don't have to be rude, but you do have to be firm and direct. Don't do things for others if you don't really want to. Speak up, and soon others will be seeing you in a whole new light.Start small.________This will allow you to practice being brave and self-confident. Tell a person who has cut in line in front of you to move to the back of the line, or tell a salesperson to do that. Before long, you will be confident enough to stand up to your friends and family members.Judge well.When dealing with others, you have to exercise good judgment. ________If a colleague isn't doing his part, you should rightfully demand that he start doing so. However, if a taxi cuts you off in traffic, just let it go.________Rome wasn't built in a day.

Start by speaking up for yourself with strangers.D. Everyone has the right to live without being judged.E. If you slip back into the pushover mode every once in a while, don't blame yourself.F. Sadly, some people are so easily pushed around that they come to be seen as pushovers.G. It's one thing to be confident, but quite another to forcefully say no to an unreasonable request.五、翻译（共10分）1.我们最终一定会成功。
