AHundreds of years ago，a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots，a brave people，loved their country very much. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland, but there were too many Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.One night, the leader of Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. “We will rest here tonight, my men,” he said. “Tomorrow we will fight one more battle. We must win or we will die.”They were all very tired, so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty, but they were very tired, too, and one by one, they fell asleep.The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they climbed up the hillside, taking care not to make a sound. Closer and closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more，the war would be over. Suddenly, one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a moment，they were on their feet and ready for a battle. The fighting was hard but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved their country.The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it. Few people like it. But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.21.The result of the war is that ________.A.the Scots defeated the RomansB.the Romans killed all the ScotsC.the Scots were defeatedD.the Scots were driven out of Scotland22.

"If you carry on, one day something good will happen. And you'll realize that it wouldn't have happened if not for that previous disappointment."Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating fromcollege in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio, then work my way up to sports announcer. I hitchhiked to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station and got turned down every time.In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn't risk hiring an inexperienced person. "Go out in the sticks(边缘地区) and find a small station that'll give you a chance," she said.I thumbed home to Dixon, Illinois. While there was no radio-announcing job in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied. The job sounded just right for me. But I wasn't hired.My disappointment must have shown. "Everything happens for the best," Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to job hunt. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer.As I left his office, my frustration boiled over. I asked aloud, "How can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he can't get a job in a radio station?"I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, "What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?" Then he put me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an imaginary game.On my way home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother's words: "If you carry on, one day something good will happen. Something wouldn't have happened if not for that previous disappointment."I often wonder what direction my life might have taken if I'dgotten the job at Montgomery Ward.24.

A global survey has found that most people can't live without their mobiles, never leave home without them and, if given a choice, would rather lose their wallet.Calling mobile phones the "remote control" for life, market research firm Synovate's poll said cell phones are so ubiquitous that by last year more humans owned one than did not.Three-quarters of the more than 8,000 respondents polled online in 11 countries said they take their phone with them everywhere, with Russians and Singaporeans the most attached.More than a third also said they couldn't live without their phone, topped by Taiwanese and again Singaporeans, while one in four would find it harder to replace the mobile than their purse.Some two-thirds of respondents go to bed with their phones nearby and can't switch them off, even though they want to, because they're afraid they'll miss something."Mobiles give us safety, security and instant access to information. They are the number one tool of communication for us, sometimes even surpassing face-to-face communication. They are our connections to our lives," Jenny Chang, Synovate's managing director in Taiwan, said in a statement.Mobiles have also changed the nature of relationships, with the survey finding nearly half of all respondents use text messages to flirt, a fifth set up first-dates via text and almost the same number use the same method to end a love affair.Apart from the obvious calling and texting, the top three features people use regularly on their mobile phones globally are the alarm clock, the camera and the games.As for email and Internet access, 17 percent of respondents said they checked their inboxes or surfed the Web on their phones, led by those in the United States and Britain.One in 10 respondents log onto social networking websites such as Facebook and MySpace regularly via mobile, again led by Britain and the United States."As the mobile becomes more and more an all-in-one device, many other businesses are facing challenging times. The opportunities for mobile manufacturers and networks howeverare enormous," said Synovate's global head of media, Steve Garton.Not everyone is tech savvy, however: 37 percent of respondents said they don't know how to use all the functions on their phone.28.According to the passage, the top two regular functions of mobile phones may be .A. camera and gameB. calling and textingC. email and calling from D. surfing and texting29. According to Jenny Chang, why is cell phone important for people?A. There are many functions on their phones.B. About half of all respondents end a love affair via text.C. Mobiles make people feel safe, secure and help them to get information.D. Mobiles used as the tool of communication is not popular with people.30. What can be inferred from paragraph 1?A. Cell phone plays an important part in body.B. As for most of people, wallet is less important than cell phone.C. More humans would rather own their wallet than cell phones.D. Poll considered mobile phones as the “remote control” for life.31.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?A. rareB. specialC. interestingD. commonDAttitude is an internal(内在的)state that influences the choices of personal action made by the individual. Some researchers consider that attitudes come from differences between beliefs and ideas; others believe that attitudes come from emotional states. Here, we focus on the effects of attitudes upon behavior, that is, upon the choices of action made by the individual.The kinds of actions taken by human beings are obviously influenced greatly by attitudes. Whether one listens to classical music or rock, whether one obeys the speed limit while driving, whether one encourages one’s husband or wife to express his or her own ideas----all are influenced by attitudes. These internal states are acquired throughout life from situations one is faced with in the home, in the streets, and in the school.Of course, the course of action chosen by an individual in any situation will be largely determined by the particulars of that situation. An individual who has a strong attitude of obeying laws may drive too fast when he is in a hurry and no police cars in sight. A child who has a strong attitude of honesty may steal a penny when she thinks no one will notice. But the internal state which remains unchanged over a period of time, and which makes the individual behave regularly in a variety of situations, is what is meant by an attitude.Attitudes are learned in a variety of ways. They can result from single incidents , as when an attitude toward snakes is acquired by an experience in childhood at the sudden movement of a snake. T hey can result from the individual’s experiences of success and pleasure, as when someone acquires a positive attitude toward doing crossword puzzles by being able to complete some of them. And frequently, they are learned bycopying other people’s behavio r, as when a child learns how to behave toward foreigners by observing the actions of his parents. Regardless of these differences, there is something in common in the learning and modification(修正) of attitudes.32. According to the passage, we know attitudes _________.A. are largely affected by one’s behaviorB. come from different situations in one’s lifeC. remain unchanged in one’s daily lifeD. could be chosen according to one’s will33. Which of the following is TRUE about the learning of attitudes?A. Attitudes are only learned through one’s success.B. Copying others’ behavior is not a good idea.C. Attitudes can be learned from one’s parents.D. Attitudes learned in danger will last longer.34. The author uses the examples in Paragraph 3 to show____________.A. particulars of a situation may influence an individual’s actionB. people with good attitudes may sometimes do bad deedsC. an individual may change his or her attitude fairly easilyD. people often make mistakes when they are not noticed35. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A. Researchers believe that attitudes only come from emotional states.B. Attitudes have a bad influence on actions.C. An honest child won’t steal a penny.D. Attitudes can be learned either by one’s experience or by observing the actions of others.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。
