AThere was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm. He was given a slingshot（弹弓）to play with out in the woods. He practiced in the woods, but he could never hit the target. Getting a little discouraged, he headed back for dinner. As he was walking back he sawGrandma's pet duck.Just out of impulse(冲动),he let the slingshot fly, hit the duck in the head and killed it. He was shocked! In a panic, he hid the dead duck in the wood, only to see his sister watching! Sally had seen it all, but she said nothing.After lunch the next day Grandma said, "Sally, let's wash the dishes". But Sally said, "Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to help in the kitchen. "Then she whispered to him, "Remember the duck?" So Johnny did the dishes. Every time Grandma asked Sally to do some housework, she will repeat the same story. After several days of Johnny doing both his work and Sally's, he finally couldn't stand it any longer. He came to Grandma and confessed that he had killed the duck.Grandma gave him a hug and said, "Sweetheart, I know. You see ,I was standing at the window and I saw the whole thing, but because I love you ,I forgave you.1 was just wondering how long you would let Sally make a slave of you.,,In our daily life, whatever we do, God is always standing at the window and he sees the whole thing. He's just wondering how long you will let the devil make a slave of you. The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness, he not only forgives you, but also he forgets.21.Johnny felt discouraged in the first paragraph because____.A. he didn't like his grandmaB. he couldn't hit the target with the slingshotC. he was given a bad slingshotD. he killed the pet of his grandma22.

From the story we can learn that ______.A. everyone has to forget the sad thingB. grandparents won't be frightened by children's mistakesC. those who often lie to others will become the devilD. one should be brave to admit his mistakesBWhether it's for a hobby or profession, photography has always been highly valued. Photography has been around for over a hundred years, but what has recently revolutionized it is digital photography.A digital camera looks like a film camera, but it works differently. A digital camera takes pictures or a video by using a CCD sensor instead of film. The data about the images are electronically saved on a flash card. Later on, the flash card can be removed from the camera and put into a card reader. The card reader can be plugged into a computer's USB port. The images and videos can then be saved on a computer for viewing, editing, emailing, or printing.Digital photography received a great deal of criticism in its beginning stages, but with its continued development, it is now capable of producing images of a quality that is similar to. or even better, than that of film photographs. However, what really makes digital photography attractive is its convenience and low cost. Instead of having to go to a lab and waiting to get pictures developed to see what they look like, you can always view the images or-video on the LCD screen that is on the back of the camera. Not only does this feature save time, but it also prevents common mistakes like using a wrong exposure(曝光) that could ruin an image or video.With the usage of computer programs like Photoshop, more serious photographers can edit their images without the expense of a darkroom. Digital photography is also friendlier to the environment, as harmful chemicals that are needed in the development of film are not used in digital photography. Printing only the best pictures and not having to buy film make digital photography much cheaper.25. In a digital camera, an image is taken by the camera's______.A. card readerB. filmC. CCD sensorD. USB drive26. Why did the public first disapprove of digital photography?A. The pictures were not as good as those by a film camera.B. It used dangerous chemicals to develop its pictures.C. The computers were too expensive for people to use.D. It wasn't convenient to use because of its techniques.27. Which is NOT a reason why digital photography is eco-friendly?A. Harmful chemicals are not needed in developing pictures.B. Pictures are printed with a computer instead of films.C. Photographers don't have to work in a darkroom.D. Digital cameras produce pictures as good as film cameras.CA new study, conducted by British company Mindlab International, has found that listening to music at work increases accuracy and speed, The Telegraph reported. Perhaps, some parents disagree with this idea, saying, "Switch off the music and Concentrate! " Well, if that's the case with your parents, you might now be able to convince them that you have science on your side.The company gave 26 participants a series of different tasks for five days in a row, including spell checking, mathematical word problems, data entry, and abstract reasoning. The participants completed these tasks while listening to music or no music at all.The results showed that while music was playing, 88% of participants produced their most accurate test results and 81% completed their fastest work. David Lewis, chairman of Mindlab International, told The Telegraph, "Music is a very powerful management tool if you want to increase not only the efficiency of your workforce but also their emotional state... they are going to become more positive about the work. "However, you may have a list of your favorite songs, but not all kinds of music match all homework. For maths or other subjects involving numbers or attention to detail, you should listen to classical music, the study found. In the study, pop music enabled participants to complete their tasks 58% faster than when listening to no music at all. If you are reviewing your English writing, pop music is the best choice, as it is the best kind for spell checking. It cutmistakes by 14%, compared to listening to no music. After finishing your homework, do you often take time to check your answers? Maybe, some dance music is suitable for you.28. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. We cannot live without musicB. Music helps us to learnC. Different music, different livesD. Music in the classroom.29. What did the participants have to do in the study?A. Persuade their parents to listen to music.B. Listen to the same music together.C. Finish tasks with music or without music at all.D. Try their best to choose the most suitable music.30. What does the underlined word "they" refer to in Para 4?A. participantsB. resultsC. testsD. tools31. When you review your English writing, what kind of music is the best choice?A. Classical musicB. Pop musicC. Dance musicD. Rock musicDLonely Planet Publications is the largest guidebook publisher in the world. With over 650 titles sold in 118 countries, it annually sells six million copies, giving guidance to travelers in locations worldwide.Tony Wheeler and his wife Maureen Wheeler were the founders of Lonely Planet Publications and its first writers. They put together Lonely Planet's first publication- Across Asia on the Cheap. Originally from Australia, the couple had decided to travel from Europe back home to Australia overland-going through the countries of Iran,Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Nepal, and South-East Asia, to eventually reach Australia. Tourist facilitres were limited in these countries, so if travelers wanted to go there, they had to eat and sleep locally. Many of these travelers were young and adventurous, but they didn't have much money, so going local was the only way that they could afford to travel across Asia. Frustrated that there was no guidebook to give budget travelers information on accommodations, food, and transport in these regions, the Wheelers decided to write a guidebook themselves. Full of humor and strong opinions, the book became famous among backpackers-budget travelers-as the chief travel guide for Asia. It made enough money for the Wheelers to travel more and finance their second book about traveling in Southeast Asia on a Shoestring.This second book became even more popular and acquired readership outside of Australia in North America, Europe, and New Zealand. Sales developed so well that the Wheelers were able to open up a publishing house in Australia, and eventually opened up offices in the United States and Europe. Because the guidebooks were based off contributing writer's experiences, material was fresh and up to date. As more and more books were written, the series finally came to cover every country in the world.32. What is the passage mainly about?A. How the Lonely Planet Publications developed.B. How to have a trip in an economical way.C. The Wheelers liked traveling around the world.D. The Wheelers wrote two books about traveling.33. The Wheelers wrote Across Asia on the Cheap because____.A. they thought they could make a lot of moneyB. the Australian government asked them toC. there was no guidebook like it on the marketD. it was their job while they were traveling34.In the third paragraph, "budget travelers" refers to those travelers whoA. decide to travel around the worldB. don't have so much moneyC. write books during their tripsD. help other travelers as volunteers35.It can be concluded that the Wheelers____.A. have only written two books about cheap travelingB. advocated the idea of traveling more with less moneyC. eventually made their company from bad to worseD. support other travelers to start a publishing house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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
