At the start of the school year, the teachers were given the names of five children. They were told that these five were the most excellent students in the class. But the fact was that these students were only average，and they were not the best students at all. Well, guess what? At the end of the year, all the five average students scored among the highest in the class.What made these average students change so much to become top students？The only difference was the change in their teachers’ attitude. Because the teachers believed that these five kids were the top students，they expected more from them. And so these five average students began to believe and expect more from themselves. So they worked harder to do as well as they could.Do you know why? If you expect the best from people, they’ll usually want to give you their best. A great leader said, “Treat a person just how he appears to be on the outside, and you’ll make him even worse. But treat a person like he’s already a success，and you’ll help make him the best he can be.”Like the true story of 7-year-old Johnny, his teacher got so angry with him that one day she said，“Johnny，you’re the naughtiest boy in this class. I’m sure you’ll never change.” The ne xt year Johnny had a new teacher. And on the first day of class，she met with Johnny after school and said，“Johnny, I’ve heard a lot about you! But do you know that I don’t believe a word of it.” And every day after that, this new teacher treated Johnny as if he was one of the smartest students even when Johnny did naughty things. Later on, Johnny became a school leader. Because that’s the power of our belief and attitude toward children.1．The professor started his research by _______.A．teaching the five children himselfB．asking the five children to find a new teacherC．telling the five students to work harder than ever beforeD．telling the teacher the five students were the best in the class2．The five average students became top students mainly because of ________.A．the professor’s study B．the teachers’hard workC．the change in the teachers D．the change in the teachers’ attitude3．What does the passage mainly tell us？A．Attitude and belief can change a person.B．Only teachers can make you a top student.C．A professor’s study can help you score highest.D．If you want to get more，you should have new teachers.C15、When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm and, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems too.One big disadvantage is money---it costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of travelling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment. Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising---and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens(十几岁) or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem better. I certainly hope to move back there soon.1．What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?21*cnjy*comA．Staying on the farmB．Moving to the countrysideC．Leaving home for the cityD．Running away from the school2．Which of the following is true about the writer?A．He is very old now.B．He is in good health.C．He prefers driving a car.D．He lives in the city now.3．In the passage, the writer tries to _______.A．express his opinions about way of lifeB．describe his life in the countrysideC．show an interest in the outside worldD．ask the reader to live in the city4．How is the passage mainly developed?A．By inferring B．By comparingC．By listing examples D．By giving explanations2D16、Dick lived in England. One day in January he said to his wife，“I'm going to fly to New York next week because I've got some work there.” “Where are you going to stay there？” his wife asked. “I don't know yet.” Dick answered. “Please send me your address from there in a telegram(电报)，”his wife said. “All right，” Dick answered.He flew to New York on January 31st and found a nice hotel in the center of the city. He put his things in his room and then he sent his wife a telegram. He put the address of his hotel in it.In the evening he didn't have any work，so he went to a cinema. He came out at nine o'clock and said，“Now I'm going back to my hotel and have a nice dinner.”He found a taxi and the driver said，“Where do you want to go？” But Dick didn't remember the name and address of his hotel.“Which hotel are my things in？” he said. “And what am I going to do tonight？” But the driver of the taxi did not know. So Dick got out and went into a post office. There he sent his wife another telegram，and in it he wrote，“Please send me my address at this post office.”1．Dick flew to New York because ________．A．he went there for a holiday B．he had work thereC．he went there for sightseeing(观光) D．his home was there2．Who would send him the name and address of his hotel?A．The manager(经理)of his hotel.

Soon the mother found a friend to talk to and her son ran off.At eight o’clock, the lights in the hall became wea k, and the concert was set to start. The mother began to look for the boy. Then, she saw her 6-year-old son on stage. He was on the piano bench playing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.The mother was very amazed. Before she could get her son back, the famous pianist himself was on the stage and quickly moved to the piano.“Don’t stop. Keep playing,” he said kindly to the boy. The great pianist reached down with his left hand and began filling in the bass (低音部) part of the song. Soon, his right arm reached around the other side and played a beautiful piece of music. Together, the old pianist and the little boy impressed people with their beautiful music.In all of our lives, we receive helping hands —some we notice, some we don’t. Equally we ourselves also have lots of chances to give a helping hand to others —sometimes we want people to know, sometimes we don’t. Little of what we all achieve comes without others’ help. What we receive we should give back.1．The mother took her son to the piano concert because _____.A．her friend sent them two ticketsB．the pianist invited them thereC．she wanted to develop his interest in pianoD．her son liked the pianist very much2．When the mother found her son playing on stage, she felt _____.A．happy B．encouragedC．interested D．surprised3．What did the pianist ask the boy to do?A．To go back to his mother.B．To keep playing the piano.C．To play the bass part of the song.D．To watch him play instead.4．What does the story tell us?A．It is good to give a helping hand to others.B．Great people always like to help others.C．It is important to give a child a lesson on stage.D．A mother should take good care of her child.F18、Huang Naihui was born in 1964 in Taipei.

21．（6分）For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents “point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents” complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, th e cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is - politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg - the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority - someone who actually knows something - and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.1、Why does the author compare the parent - teen war to a border conflict?A．both can continue for generations.B．Both are about where to draw the line.C．Neither has any clear winner.D．Neither can be put to an end.2、What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?A．The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.B．The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.C．The teens cause their parents of misleading them.D．The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.3、Parents and teens want to be right because they want to .A．give orders to the otherB．know more than the otherC．gain respect from the otherD．get the other to behave properly22．（8分）Doctor Seuss was born in 1904. By the middle 1950s, he had become one of the best loved and most successful children's book writers in the world. His books are very popular with young readers. They enjoy the invented words and the pictures of unusual funny animals and plants.In 1954, life magazine published(刊登) a report about school children who could not read. The report said many children's books were not interesting. Doctor Seuss strongly hoped to help children and decided to write books that were interesting and easy to read. He used words with the same ending sound, like fish and wish. He did not receive training in art. Yet, he drew the pictures for most of his books.In 1957, Dr. Seuss wrote The Cat in the Hat. He used less than 230 words to write the book and even a six-year-old should be able to read it. It was a fun story and easy to read. Children loved it. Their parents loved it, too. Today it is still one of the stories they like best. The success of The Cat in the Hat made him want to write more books for children. In 1960, he wrote a book using less than fifty words. The book is called Green Eggs and Ham.In 1984, Doctor Seuss won a Pulitzer Prize (普利策奖). He was honored for the education and enjoyment his books provided American children and their parents.He died at the age of 87, but his influence remains. Millions of his books have beensold worldwide. People say his books helped change the way American children learned to read. Yet, his books are loved by people of all ages. Doctor Seuss once said，“I do not writ e for children. I write for people.”1、Doctor Seuss learned from the magazine that _________.A．some school children could not read with interest.B．many children's books were interestingC．children wanted to learn to readD．a writer for children was wanted2、People like his books because the books ________.A．are cheap and easy to get B．were written in different languagesC．are easy and interesting to read D．were written with invented words3、He wrote the book The Cat in the Hat at the age of ________.A．50 B．53C．56 D．874、Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Doctor Seuss wrote Green Eggs and Ham with over 230 words.B．Doctor Seuss wrote books only for children in the United States.C．The Cat in the Hat was written only for six-year-old children.D．His books provided education and enjoyment for Americans.23．（8分）Every morning at 6 am Alan Swallow gets out of bed, has breakfast and reads the paper. And for that he is an unsung hero.When he reads The Southland Times in the morning, he reads it aloud and records if for people who are visually impaired(受损的).The Blind Foundation provides its members with the Telephone Information Service(TIS) which has articles from more than 70 newspapers, radio and TV schedules, finance information, public and government notices and updates from the Blind Foundation. For 17 years Swallow has read the paper for the service. In the early days someone would head down to the local studio to record the news for the day and they had one chance to get it right. Nowadays, the news readers can work from home suing their phones.The TIS service is available 365 days a year, and it could sometimes take him an hour to get through the local news items he had chosen. “It doesn’t take much effort,but it does take a commitment because people are relying on it.” He said.The service had struggled for some time with volunteers because not many people knew about it. Swallow said, “It was fulfilling to know that people were benefiting from what he was doing.”For Blind Foundation social function organiser Liz Anstice, the opportunity to give back to a foundation that had given much to her, was a nice aspect of the role. She has been involved with the foundation for five years after she became visually impaired. She said the biggest challenge was building the trust that people had in the local branch of the foundation.Anstice reformed the social committee group and changed things so people did not get bored. The Christmas celebrations had been so well received members from the Blind Foundation in Balclutha were coming down for them. However, sometimes getting members to the events was a challenge because of a lack of volunteers available to transport them, she said. She was proud of being a finalist for the Volunteer Recognition Award.1、How does Alan Swallow work for The Blind Foundation?A．By writing newspaper articles.B．By reading news for the blind.C．By updating local news every day.D．By collecting telephone information.2、How does Alan Swallow feel about his work for the TIS service?A．Time-consuming. B．Challenging. C．Satisfying. D．Struggling.3、What’s the problem for getting members to the events according to Liz Anstice? A．People’s distrust. B．Costs of transport.C．Boredom of events. D．Shortage of volunteers.4、What’s the best title for the text?A．Blind Foundation Recognizes Its Unsung HeroesB．Work for Telephone Information ServiceC．Great Challenges to Blind FoundationD．Blind Foundation: Reforms Going on24．（8分）Hot Spots for Retirees to Start Their Encore CareerEncore Career: Vocational School InstructorRetire in: Los Angeles, CAEver since IBM CEO Ginni Rometty coined the term “new collar” to describewell-paid jobs that require specific skills but not necessarily a degree, vocational schools have made a serious comeback.

My three children had been addicted to this cassette（磁带）on our previous summer road trips.As I began to prepare for our next 500-mile car trip, I came across a book—Jim Trelease’s—The Read Aloud Handbook. This could be the answer to my problem. I thought. So I put Roald Dahl’s James and the Giant Peach into my bag. When I beganto read aloud the tale of the boy who escapes the bad guys by hiding inside a giant peach, my three kids argued and fought with each other in their seats. But after several lines, they were attracted into the rhythm of the words and began to listen.We soon learned that the simple pleasure of listening to a well-written book makes the long miles pas more quickly. Sometimes reading became the most interesting part of the trip. I read Wilson Rawls’s Summer of the Monk eys as we spent two days driving to the beach. We arrived just behind the power crews restoring（恢复）electricity after a tropical storm. The rain continued most of the week, and the beach was covered with oil washed up by the storm. When we returned home, I asked my son what he liked about the trip. He answered with out hesitation “The book you read in the car.”Road trips still offer challenges, even though my children now are teenagers. But we continue to read as we roll across the country. And I’m beginning to see tat reading aloud has done more than help pass the time. For at least a little while, we are not shutin our own electronic worlds. And maybe we've started something that will pass on to the next generation.1、Why did the author start reading in the car?A．She wanted to have a better journey.B．She wanted to keep a family traditionC．Her children were addicted to reading.D．Her children were tired of the cassette.2、How did the children react after the author read a few lines?A．They kept fighting. B．They hid themselves.C．They soon settled down. D．They read together aloud.3、What can we learn about the author and her family’s trip to the beach?A．They were caught in a storm.B．They enjoyed reading on the road.C．They had a good time on the beach.D．They found reading boring.4、Which can be the best title for the text?A．Better Traveling than Reading B．Books that Changed My ChildrenC．Road Trips Full of Challenges D．Reading Makes Great Road Trips第三部分语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．（30分）Helen was loved as a friendly 1ady by a11 who knew her.
