While she was growing up, two of her brothers and six of her sisters died. Elizabeth decided to become a doctor.Her father was a sugar businessman. He encouraged equality(平等) between boys and girls so, unlike most girls, Elizabeth had the same education as boys.One night, when Elizabeth was eleven, a fire destroyed her family’s business. The family became so poor that Mr. Blackwell decided to go to America. When the familyreached New York, Mr. Blackwell tried to start a new business, but failed. In 1837, he died.After being refused several times by medical schools, Elizabeth was finally accepted by Geneva Medical College in New York, largely as a joke. People there, even women, thought she was indecent (下流的) and asked her to leave. But with great determination, Elizabeth graduated with high honors. After graduation, Elizabeth went to Paris to learn more about medicine. Elizabeth returned to America in 1851. There she helped other women become doctors and opened a medicine store. Then, she begged her rich friends to give money to build a hospital.Elizabeth’s dream came true in 1857 when the New York Infirmary For Women and Children opened its doors. It was the first true hospital for women, run by women doctors in the world. In 1868, the hospital opened a medical college for women. After that, Elizabeth received a letter from Europe asking her to come to her homeland and do for the women of Europe what she had done in America. She returned to England in 1869. There she served for forty years, which made her a heroine.21. What made Elizabeth want to be a doctorA. Her poor family.B. Her father’s advice.C. Her family members’ early death.D. The inequality between girls and boys.22. Why did Elizabeth’s family move to AmericaA. To sell more sugar.B. To look for chances to live.C. To open a hospital for women.D. To help Elizabeth study medicine.23. It can be inferred from Para. 4 that in America_________.A. hardly any women studied medicineB. studying medicine was considered indecentC. women were not allowed to receive educationD. women and children suffered a lot from poor health24. Which is the right order of the following events about Elizabetha. She opened the first hospital for women.b. She opened a medicine store in America.c. Her family moved to New York.d. She graduated from a medical school.e. She returned to England to serve.f. Her family’s business was destroyed.g. She went to Paris to study medicine.A. c-f-d-g-b-a-eB. f-c-d-g-b-a-eC. f-c-g-d-b-a-eD. f-c-g-d-b-e-aBIn most towns today, you can see teenagers standing over electronic machines with flashing lights, shooting at spaceships from other planets and dropping bombs on strange monsters(恶魔).The machines have names like Space Warrior, Dark Invader and so on. It used to be believed that damage was done only to those strange visitors from outer space, but now it seems that they are striking back.Many teenagers like electronic games so much that they can't stop playing. They spend hours tightly holding the joystick(手柄) controls and constantly pressing the buttons marked "fire". They develop pains on their fingers because of the constant pressure. They play and play so that the pains have no chance to cure properly. The rapid wrist movement required to guide the spaceship across the screen causes another problem: the muscles of the wrist and the arm become so inflamed(发炎的) and swollen(肿胀的) that they press against the bones. This condition is what doctors now call "Space Warrior's Wrist".Other strange aches and pains also are likely to affect the elbows and shoulders.Another even more alarming problem is shown by the case of a 17-year-old girl which was recently reported in the British Medical Journal. She had been playing various kinds of electronic games for more than two hours a day. Her father repaired games and machines and she could use the cassettes and systems in his workshop as often as she liked. One day, after playing a game called Dark Invader, she lost consciousness(知觉) and fell on the floorDoctors who examined her found she was suffering from an unusual illness caused by lights flashing at a particular frequency.25. Electronic games are found very popular with____A. people living in townsB. students studying in high schoolsC. girls working in their fathers' workshopsD. young people26. " Space Warrior's Wrist" is caused by______.A. constantly pressing the buttonsB. rapidly moving across the screenC .tightly holding the joystick controlsD. inflamed and swollen muscles of the wrist27. The case of a 17-year-girl given by writer showsthat the writer_____.A. supports playing electronic gamesB. feels very sorry for the girlC. disagrees with young people's playing electronic gamesD. feels worried about young people's poor healthCWhat can you do to spread peace and help get rid of prejudice(偏见)In your own way you can only show love to your neighbors and classmates.

In a magazine.DPassenger pigeons(旅鸽) once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks(群) so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point，there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons—a number equal to 24 to 40 per cent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometres) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly, the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century, the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans' need for wood, which scattered(驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons, but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.32. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons ________．A. were the biggest bird in the worldB. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environmentD. were the largest bird population in the US33. The underlined word “undoing” probably refers to the pigeons' “________”．A. escapeB. ruinC. liberationD. evolution34. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeonsA. To seek pleasure.B. To save other birds.C. To make money.D. To protect crops.35. What can we infer about the law passed in MichiganA. It was ignored by the public.B. It was declared too late.C. It was unfair.D. It was strict.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

On his birthday, can you guess what people gave him?That’s ri ght---stamps. Victor’s favourite stamps came from France. He had almost every stamp from 1954 to 2004. He only needed one. That was a 1974 special edition. It was very hard to find. He looked for it everywhere. He asked his friends and relatives to help him. But nobody could find the stamp. It made Victor very sad. “Don’t worry. Never give up,” his father said to him. If you have enough patience, you’ll find it one day.” “I hope so,” Victor said.Victor also liked writing. He had a penfriend in France. They wrote to each other every month. Victor’s penfriend, Phillip, usually used new stamps to send letters. Sometimes, his mother gave him stamps to use. Once Phillip’s mother gave him a big, green stamp. It looked old. When Victor received the letter, he was very surprised. On the envelope, he looked carefully at the stamp. It was the 1974 special edition stamp. Victor was so happy. He told his sister, his mother and his father.“ You see,” his father said. “ You did find your stamp. So, it’s good to have two things in life.” “What are they?” Victor asked. “ Friends and patience.” He answered.1.

The passage mainly tells us that ________ is(are) important to people.A. a happy familyB. a good hobbyC. relatives and friendshipD. friends and patience(B)Frank Woolworth was born in Rodman, New York., in 1852. His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be farmer. He took a shortbusiness course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract people’s interest, but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared. Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store., selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling low price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly form the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada , and opened his first store in London . He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business accord ing to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT.”5. Frank took a short business course in order to ____________.A. earn more money for his familyB. learn something from a salesmanC. get away from the farmD. get enough to eat.6. Frank sold the odds and ends quickly because _____________.A. he knew how to get people to buy his goods.B. he cut down the price by halfC. he had put the goods on a table in a very nice way.D. the sign he put on the table was well designed.7. The price of the knives was cut down by half because ______________.A. the factory workers worked 24 hours a day.B. knives were ordered in large quantities directly from the factory.C. the knives were made in Germany, where labour (劳动力) was cheap.D. the knives were produced in one factory.8. The belief that : “ The customer is always right” suggests that ________.A. whenever there is a quarrel between the customer and shop assistant, the customers are always right.B. If you want to succeed, the rule is the only way.C. stores must always follow the customer’s orders if they want to make more money.D. stores should do their best to meet the customer’s needs if they want to be successful.(C)After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health.During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping makes it possible for your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your body relaxes little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other. Although your mind slows down, you will dream from time to time. Scientists who study sleep point out that when you are dreaming, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement. If you have trouble falling asleep, some people suggest breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep.9. The text makes us know that not getting enough sleep might make you __.A. suffer form poor healthB. enjoy moreC. dream more oftenD. breathe quickly10. During REM, _______.A. you move restlesslyB. you start dreamingC. your mind stops workingD. your eyeballs move quickly11. The underlined word “drowsy” in the last paragraph probably means____. A. lazy B. sle epy C. relaxed D. pleased12. A good title for this text might be_________.A. DreamsB. SleepC. Good HealthD. Work and Rest(D)“You know, these cups bring to mind a tea quote(说法) I heard.” Mary’s aunt said.She poured tea. There were four of them and there were four totally different cups on the table. They took their tea cups. “What quote?” Mary aske d.“Well, maybe I should rather say it is a story,” aunt said, “I heard that there was a wise teacher who took all his students for tea. They were surprised that all the cups on the table were different.Each of them took a cup and started drinking their tea, each looking at the cups of others. The teacher let them do that for a while and then said,‘Do you notice your behavior? You are all looking at each other’s tea cup and I can see some of you with the broken ones are even envious(羡慕的) of the finer cu ps of others. Is this not so?’ ” The students agreed, amused by their own behavior.“You may have wondered why you all had different cups, but I put them here on purpose. You see they represent (代表) life itself. Life is like that tea and the cups are like the physical circumstances(状况) of your life. You all got the same thing in your cups — tea. And yet you can not truly enjoy it in your envy of another’s cup. It’s just the same with life. You forget to enjoy your own life when you concentrate on envyin g the circumstances of someone else’s life.So now, close your eyes, and taste your own tea. Really taste it. And tell me — did it matter from which cup it came from?”Aunt finished telling her short tea story and they all sat in silence for a while, tasting their tea.A sleepy fly buzzed(嗡嗡作响) past, a bird sang in the tree. And it really did not matter one bit from which tea cup they drank.13. When the students found they had different tea cups, they_____________.A. were satisfied with their own cupB. were angry about the broken cups they had been givenC. asked the teacher to get new cups for themD. were curious about the difference between the cups14. From the text, we know that _____________.A. the teacher prepared different tea cups for each studentB. the teacher should have given the students the same cupsC. the teacher made the tea cups different by mistake.D. each student took their time to choose a cup they liked15. In the passage the teacher’s message to the students was that _______.A. life is hard and boring for everyoneB. it is strange to be envious of the lives of othersC. everyone should learn to enjoy his own lifeD. people act differently in different circumstances第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AIt'll soon be the birthday of one of my closest friends, Susie. I still cannot decide what to give her. She's a rare friend because she has been there for me all the time whenever I need a friend to talk to. I can always depend on her to be the first to arrive to give me advice when I have problems. I guess I am so lucky to have her as a friend.It's more than seven years since I first met Susie in our school. I joined the theater group and she was a director then. At first I thought she was intimidating but in the end I realized that she needed to keep a strict image in order for her actors and actresses to take her seriously. And then during practice I got a chance to know her better. In fact, she was a friendly and warm-hearted person. Soon we become good friends.I don't know exactly what to give my friend on her birthday as I believe she has everything. So it's really hard to buy her a gift she will appreciate. This year I want something different and special but I don't know what to give. One day I searched the internet without any purpose and to my surprise there is a really lovely site where you can buy all kinds of gifts.I scanned(浏览) some of their items and I found cool and exciting gifts. I chose a special personalized bracelet(手镯). I'm sure that this will look perfect on her. I put our arms as part of the design of the bracelet so that it'll remind us that we'll forever be friends. I can't wait to give her my gift but I won't tell her yet. I don't want to destroy the surprise.21. Why does the author consider Susie as a rare friend?A. Susie is good at solving problems.B.

In much of the United States, winter means the return of snow.Snow is a form of frozen water. It contains many groups or very small ice particles called snow crystals(晶体). These crystals grow from water particles in cold clouds. They usually grow around a piece of dust. All snow crystals have six sides, but they grow in different shapes. The shape depends mainly on the temperature and water levels in the air. The shape of a snow crystal may change from one form to another as the crystal passes through levels of air with different temperatures. Snow contains much less water than rain. About seventy-five centimeters of snow has as much water as two and a half centimeters of rain.Generally, the color of snow and ice appears white. This is because the light we see from the sun is white. Most natural materials take in some sunlight. However, when light travels from air to snow, some light is sent back, or reflected(反射). Snow crystals have many surfaces to reflect sunlight. It is this light that gives snow its white color.Much of the water we use comes from snow. Melting snow gives water to rivers and crops. Snowfall helps to protect plants and some wild animals from the cold. Fresh snow is made largely of air which is kept among the snow crystals. Because the air has trouble moving, the movement of heat is greatly reduced. However, snow isresponsible for the deaths of hundreds of people in the United States every year. Many people die in traffic accidents on roads that are covered with snow or ice.28. In the center of a snow crystal there is .A. airB.dustC. waterD. sunlight29. If fifteen centimeters of snow completely melts, the height of water will be .A. 0.5 centimeterB. 1 centimeterC. 1.5 centimetersD. 15centimeters30. According to the text, snow looks white because .A. snow is actually whiteB. the ice particles are whiteC. here is a lot of air in the snowD. the reflection of light makes it look white31.How can snow protect plants from the cold?A. Snow gives them much heat.B. Snow turns into water and waters them.C. Snow makes them keep moving .D. Snow contains air which has trouble moving.DThe world’s native languages are dying out at an unprecedented(空前的) rate, taking with them irreplaceable(不能替代的) knowledge about the natural world, according to a new study.The study identified five global “hot spots” where languages are vanishing faster than anywhere else ---- eastern Siberia, northern Australia, central South America, the US state of Oklahoma and the US Pacific Northwest.“Languages are suffering a global extinction crisis that greatly goes beyond the pace of species extinction,” linguistics(语言学的) professor David Harrison noted, who said half of the world’s 7,000 languages were expected to disappear before the end of the century.Native people had an intimate(详尽的) knowledge of their environment that was lost when their language disappeared, along with other certain things often unfamiliar to us, Harrison stressed. “Most of what we know a bout species and ecosystems is not written down anywhere, it’s only in people’s heads,” he said. “We are seeing in front of our eyes the loss of the human knowledge base.”Harrison was one of a team of linguists who carried out the study. The researchers traveled to Australia this year to study native languages, some of the most endangered. According to Harrison, in Australia, they were heartened to see a woman in her 80s who was one of the only three remaining speakers of the Yawuru language passing on her knowledge to schoolchildren. He said such inter-generational exchanges were the only way native languages could survive. “The children had elected to take this course, no one forced them,” he said. “When we asked them why they were learning it, they s aid,‘This is a dying language, we need to learn it’.” Also, while there they found a man with knowledge of the Amurdag language, which had previously been thought extinct.The researchers said all five of the hot spots identified were areas that had been successfully colonized and where a dominant language such as Spanish or English was threatening native tongues.32.What does this text mainly talk about?A．The knowledge of native languages.B．A study on native languages endangered.C．People’s efforts in saving native languages.D．Harrison and his study on languages.33.The underlined word“vanishing”in the second paragraph can be best replaced by.A．developing B．changing C．increasing D．disappearing34.According to Harrison, language extinction .A．results in lots of worriesB．speeds up the pace of species extinctionC．threatens the existing of Spanish and EnglishD．brings about a loss of knowledge about the environment35.According to the text, native languages were endangered partly because of .A.few researches done on themB.the small population of native peopleC.the strong influence of ruling languagesD.little education native people receive at school三、七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

AFriends play an important role in our lives, and although we can’t be more familiar with the fact of friendship, we often don’t clearly understand how we make friends, especially with Americans. Here are some pieces of advice on making friends with Americans:1. Visiting places Americans enjoy: parties, churches, restaurants, parks and sports clubs.2. Be willing to take the first step. Don’t wait for them to get close to you. Americans in China may not know you speak English. They may be uncomfortable if they can’t speak your language.3. Use small talks to open the conversation. Ask them where they’re from, why they come to China, etc. . Remember: Be careful not to ask personal questions about age, salary and so on.4. Show an interest in their culture, their country or their job. Americans like to talk about themselves!5. Invite them to join you for dinner or just for coffee or tea. Try to set a specific(明确的)time. Americans sometimes make general invitations like “Let’s go out for dinner sometime. ”Often this is just a way to be friendly. It is not always a real invitation.6. Don’t expect too much at first.

The couple went up to the front desk, hoping to get a room for the night. “Could you give us a room?” the husband asked.The clerk looked at the couple and explained that there were three meetings in the town. “ All of our rooms are taken,” the clerk said. “But I can’t send you out into the rain at one o’clock in the morning. Would you be willing to sleep in my room? It’s not exactly a suite(套间) , but it will be good enough to make you comfortable for the night.”As he paid his bill the next morning, the old man said to the clerk, “You are the kind of manager who should be the boss of the best hotel. Maybe someday I’ll build one for you.” The clerk looked at them and smiled. And the three of them had a good laugh.Two years passed. The clerk received a letter from the old man. It contained a ticket to New York, asking the young man to pay him a visit. The old man met the clerk and led him to the corner of Fifth Avenue and 34th Street. He then pointed to a great new building there, and told him, “ This is the new hotel for you.”The old man’s name was William Waldorf-Aster, and that building was the first Waldorf-Astoria hotel.

If birds sing happily, it shows all is well in the forest: no predators (捕食者) are present, and the birds can feed, sing and do other bird things. The sound of a relaxed robin singing is easy to understand because it makes us feel this way too—it’s a sound that lifts our own hearts when we hear it.What happens when a predator comes into their areas? The nearby birds quickly give an alarm(警报) call, a short sound that warns, “Danger is coming!” On hearing the sound, the other birds stop singing and fly for cover, the deer lift their heads and stop moving and the rabbits run into the bushes. Suddenly, the forest becomes silent.When humans walk through the woods in a hurry or while talking with a friend, we don’t see much wildlife. We may think that there aren’t many animals living there, but more likely, they know we are coming and hide minutes before our arrival. But if we learn to avoid setting off alarms, we can see many more wild animals without frightening them. To practice, find a place in a park and sit quietly for an hour. Take note as the birds begin to relax and sing again. When I do this, I am always surprised at the wonderful thing animals will do when humans simply stay still long enough.11.In the writer’s opinion, the children’s answers to his question are________.A. funnyB. reasonableC. honestD. important12. Hearing a bird’s alarm call, a deer will _________.A. run quickly into the bushesB. stand still with its head upC. lie down on the ground at onceD. act as if nothing has happened13. According to the author, why can’t we see much wildlife in the woods?A. Because we come at the wrong time.B. Because we fail to give warnings.C. Because we have set off alarms.D. Because few animals live there.14. The purpose of the last paragraph is to _______.A. advise people to enjoy the songs of birds.B. ask people to learn something about birds.C. tell people how to protect birds in the wild.D. show people how and when birds sing.15. What is the text mainly about?A. The life of birds.B. Birds in the forest.C. How birds sing in the forest.D. The messages in birds’ singing.二，七选五（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）（根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

First, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence(自信) and without hesitation(犹豫). Thirdly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar.There is no short way to succeed in language learning. A good memory(记忆) is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is no much use learning by heart long lists(一览表) of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must “Learn through use”. Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever(无论何时) we can.21. The most important things to learn a foreign language are_______.A. understanding and speakingB. hearing, speaking, reading and writingC. writing and understandingD. memorizing and listening22. One can never learn a foreign language well only by_______.A. much practiceB. studying the dictionaryC. learning through useD. using the language23. Which of the following is the most important in learning a foreign language?A. A good memory.B. Speaking.C. Practice.D.

Before long a fellow in a canoe passed and shouted, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?""No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me."Soon the water rose to Smith’s waist. At this point a motor boat pulled up and someone called out, "Can I give you a lift to higher ground?""No, thanks, I have faith in God and he will save me."Later a helicopter flew by, and Smith was now standing on the roof with water up to his neck. "Grab the rope, "shouted the pilot. "I’ll pull you up.""No, thanks," said Smith. "I have faith in God and he will save me. "But after hours of struggling with water, poor exhausted Smith drowned and went to his reward. As he arrived at the Pearly Gates, Smith met God and complained about this. "Tell me, God, "he said, "I had such faith in you to save me and you let me drown. What happened?"To which God replied, "What do you want from me?

Smith Obeyed God’s OrderCLong long ago, a God called Ratu lived in the sky. Ratu liked to play games and make people angry.

They asked Hemi, the God of the sea, to help them.So Hemi tried to catch Ratu the next time he flew into the sea, but he was too slow. Ratu laughed at Hemi as he flew past him.

Ratu fought and fought but could not get free. He was caught.Ratu promised (保证) never to frighten fishes again if Hemi would set him free. But Hemi did not believe him.

AWelcome to Los Angeles. Here are some best things to do in Los Angeles(LA) with your kids.Fall at the BeachThanks to its almost perfect weather all through the year, a visit to the beach is one of the best things to do when in Los Angeles with kids. While they enjoy themselves nearby, you can simply relax and have a good rest in the sun.Trip to DisneylandA trip to the City of Angels with your little angels is incomplete without a visit to the Magic Kingdom. The joy they’ll feel from being around all those Disney characters will light up your day, too.Visit to the museumsIf you want to turn your stay in LA into an educational one for your kids, you should visit the museums. Starting with the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, or the California Science Center, or even the Kidspace Museum in Pasadena, you have many choices. I’m sure a visit to all these places will make your kids feel smarter.Visit to the Universal Studios HollywoodYour kids could get to see interesting things from some of the most popular movies ever. From the theme park of Jurassic Park to Wisteria Lane from the TV play Desperate Housewives,the Universal Studios Hollywood is a place that we all find wonderful.1．The passage is written for those who ________.A．will go on a business trip to Los AngelesB．plan to have a trip to Los Angeles with their kidsC．want to educate their children by traveling abroadD．are interested in the history and culture of Los Angeles2．Parents who prefer their kids to learn should choose ________.A．the Universal Studios Hollywood B．the Magic KingdomC．the museums D．the beach3．The writer suggests visiting the beach because ________.A．children can learn a lot there B．parents can take a rest thereC．it provides different sports equipment D．it’s the best beach in the worldBA young boy recently received an unexpected message in the mail from his father Joseph, who died two years ago.Rowan’s dad was a hard-working man who wanted to give his son the best life he could. It was why Rowan’s mother, Julie Van Stone, said Joseph joined the Navy and went to MIT to get two Master’s degre es.While at school in Boston, he would often write to Rowan. Even when he left school and was driving back to Colorado, he would send postcards from each state he stopped in. Those postcards were sent in 2007. “I remember him saying he had sent 5 or 6, but Rowan had only got 3 or 4 in the mail. But I never thought anything of it,” Van Stone said.Those postcards and pictures are priceless memories for Van Stone and her son, especially after Joseph passed away from a rare brain disease. Rowan never had a chance to say goodbye. But, on Saturday, just days before the two-year anniversary of Joseph’s death, a postcard arrived in the mail. It arrived on March 11, 2015. The message read：“Hello from Pennsylvania. I love you, and I miss you so much. See you soo n. Love, Daddy.”Neither he nor his mother knows how it happened, and they may never know. But, they have their own ideas why. “I feel like that was the final goodbye that he didn’t get to say,” Van Stone said. Van Stone says Joseph’s last words to her bef ore he died were：“Everything is a circle. We will seeeach other again. All that matters is love.”4．What did Rowan’s dad do to make his son live well？A．He got many Master’s Degrees.B．He became a soldier in Navy.C．He kept writing to his son. D．He said goodbye to his son.5．When Rowan only received 3 or 4 of postcards, Van Stone ________.A．paid little attention to that B．let Joseph stop sending postcardsC．drove back to Colorado D．wrote to Rowan every year6．How long did it take for the last postcard to reach Rowan？A．2 years. B．5 years. C．6 years.D．8 years.7．Where did Rowan’s dad send the last postcard？A．In Boston. B．In Colorado. C．In Pennsylvania. D．In New York.CYou may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Even if you know some freshmen, you still feel nervous that you don’t know any upper-class men and teachers. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces？Most high schools hold a freshman orientation before school actually starts, which is helpful not only because you learn your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but also because you get to meet fellow freshmen. That way, when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognize a few familiar faces.When you talk to your new classmates, you’ll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They’re all new to the school and don’t know what to expect. Talking about a common concern with them can help you develop friendships.The work in high school is something freshmen are probably worried about. The work in high school builds on what you learned in middle school, giving you a more advanced knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that i t’s a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.High school also has more extracurricular activities than middle school did such as clubs, music and theater groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.High school gives you the chance to learn how to manage your time, to develop your social skills and interests, and more importantly to be more independent and responsible.8．What does the underlined word “orientation” mean in Paragraph 2？A．Training. B．Game. C．Discussion. D．Examination.9．What are freshmen probably worried about？A．The learning task. B．The ability to make friends.C．The relationship with teachers. D．The freshman orientation. 10．Extracurricular activities mainly help students ________.A．build up healthy bodies B．develop friendshipsC．develop their interests D．improve their learning ability11．This passage is written for ________.A．freshmen at high school B．freshm en’s parentsC．middle school students D．upper-classmen in high schoolDAmericans think that everything we British people say sounds smart. We think that they sound low-class, but secretly we think they sound cool. These are just old beliefs about British and American English, but there is some truth in them.What is certainly true is that the differences between British and American English continue to interest us.When the US was only about 20 years old, people were already saying that British accents sounded more intelligent，according to Erin Moore’s book That’s Not English：Britishisms, Americanisms, and What Our English Says About Us.However, there are many different accents in Britain-Moore says the UK may have just as many regional accents as the US, even though the population is almost one-fifth the size. In the UK, accents have a lot to do with class, but to many Americans, even an accent that British people think is “low class” is thought of as intelligent and better, according to MPR New s.American slang(俚语) has been part of British people’s vocabulary for a long time-the number of American television, movies and music enjoyed in the UK means that British people have been using words like “cool” and “awesome” for years now. But sometime s words from theUK make it to the US-like “gobsmacked”.“Gobsmacked” started as slang from northern England. “Gob” means mouth, so the word means “surprised as if someone smacked you in the mouth”. Reality television brought it to the US, Moore said. When the singer Susan Boyle became famous for her unlikely great singing voice on the show Britain’s Got Talent, she used it all the time. “I’m gobsmacked,” she repeated, and it got popular.“Americans love a colorful piece of slang as much as anyone else,” said Moore. And this is just one example of how Britons and Americans can leave each other “gobsmacked” with their different types of English!12．What do American people think of British English？A．Cool. B．Low-class. C．Intelligent. D．Interesting.13．What can we know from the passage？A．There are more accents in Britain than in the US.B．The UK is a large country with a small population.C．American slang is the most important part of British people’s vocabulary.D．In the UK, people of different classes speak differently.14．The word “gobsmacked” became widely used because of ________.A．MPR News and the USB．Erin Moore and northern EnglandC．Susan Boyle and Britain’s Got TalentD．Reality television and American slang15．What is the best title for the passage？A．American slang and British slangB．British people and American peopleC．British accents and American accentsD．Differences between British and American English第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
