    The moment happened 30 years ago but it was still fresh in my memory. I was a college freshman and had    41    up most of the night before laughing and talking with friends. Now just before my first    42    of the day my eyelids were feeling heavier and heavier and my head was drifting down to my desk to make my textbook a    43   . A few minutes’ nap（小睡）time before class couldn’t    44   , I thought.

    BOOM! I lifted my head suddenly and my eyes opened wider than saucers. I looked around with my    45   beating wildly trying to find the cause of the    46   . My young professor was looking at me with a boyish smile on his face. He had    47    dropped the textbooks he was carrying onto his desk. “Good morning!”, he said still    48   . “I am glad to see everyone is    49   . Now let’s get started. ”

    For the next hour I wasn’t sleepy at all. It wasn’t from the    50    of my professor’s textbook alarm clock either. It was instead from the     51    discussion he led. With knowledge and good     52    he made the material come     53   . His insight was full of both wisdom and loving-kindness. And the enthusiasm and joy that he    54    with were contagious(有感染力的). I    55    the classroom not only wide awake, but a little    56and a little better as well.

    I learned something far more important than not     57    in class that day too. I learned that if you are going to do something in this life，do it well，do it with    58   . What a wonderful place this would be if all of us did our work joyously and well. Don’t sleep you’re your way through    59    then. Wake up! Let your love fill your work. Life is too    60    not to live it well.

When I look at this picture of myself. I realize of how fast time flies. I had grown not only physically and also mentally in the past few years. About one month after this photo was took, I entered my second year of high school and become a new member of the school music club. Around me in picture are the things they were very important in my life at that time, car magazines and musical instruments. I enjoyed studying difference kinds of cars and planes, playing pop music, and collecting the late music albums. This picture often brings back to me many happy memories of your high school days.

--- Wait until we get a satisfactory reply, will you?

--- I couldn’t agree _______. The idea sounds great to me.

I know that there are times when friends are apart for a while – or even forever – and that your lives take different paths. Yet, I always hope for a happy ending. I know that friends reconnect again when it makes sense.

My friend Julie and I had a long period in our friendship. We used to see each other daily. I would eat brown rice in her kitchen while we shared our secrets.

Later, we celebrated each other’s weddings. My husband and I welcomed Julie’s first son (born on my birthday). By the time he was learning to walk, Julie and her family had moved to another city. We spoke on the phone sometimes and exchanged Christmas cards.

After they welcomed their third son, they moved to Edmonton, which is a farther city. We haven’t seen each other since then. They changed their phone numbers. I received a letter from her, but I couldn’t find that envelope later. I e-mailed her a few times, but didn’t get a reply.

It was painful not to be in touch with an old friend. I let it go. I knew that Julie and I would reconnect again, when it made sense.

Last year, Julie’s husband got in touch with me on Facebook. I felt something bad, and soon my feeling proved true: Julie had passed away the month before. She died of cancer.

I regretted that I had not been part of Julie’s support system, or the last years of her joyous, painful time on Earth. I cried. I’m so sorry, Julie, for counting on more chances.

Last week, I donated my hair in memory of Julie to make wigs (假发) for cancer patients. It was a small way of showing that I loved her and will never forget her. And that I look forward to us reconnecting again – when it makes sense.

4. When apart from her friends, the writer hopes ______.

A. they will be on the same path    B. they can still be together some day

C. their friendship will end soon    D. they’ll make other better friends

5. ______ puts the following events in the correct time order.

a. Julie’s family moved to Edmonton.

b. Julie’s husband found the writer on Facebook.

c. Julie had her first son.

d. Julie died of cancer.

e. Julie wrote the author a letter.

A. c-e-a-b-d    B. c-a-e-d-b

C. a-c-e-b-d    D. a-e-c-d-b

6. The author donated her hair in order to ______.

A. make wigs for her friend    B. forget the painful past

C. reconnect with her friend    D. keep her friend deep in mind

7. The author wrote the article to ______.

A. encourage those who suffer cancer to live bravely

B. recall the good time shared with a good friend

C. express her regret of losing a good friend

D. call for more care about those who suffer cancer

A. Be well-organized.       B. Close with a Q & A.

C. Don’t be confusing.      D. Bring it to a specific end.

E. Speak slowly and pause.   F. Drop unnecessary words.

    Speaking to a group can be difficult, but listening to a bad speech is really a tiresome task—especially when the speaker is confusing. Don’t want to confuse your audience? Follow these suggestions:

61.

    When it comes to understanding new information, the human brain needs a little time. First, we hear the words; then, we compare the new information to what we already know. If the two are different, we need to pause and think. But a breathless speaker never stops to let us think about what he or she is saying. Slow it down. And breathe.

62.

    Sometimes we all start a sentence one way and then switch directions, which is very difficult to follow. When you confuse your listeners with opposite information, you leave the audience wondering what part of the information is right and what part they should remember. Instead of depending on keeping on correcting yourself, work to get the facts clear and straight.

63.

    Jumping from point to point as it comes to your mind puts the onus(责任)on your listeners to make up for your lack of organization. And it’s confusing for them to listen, reorganize, and figure out what you’re saying all at once. But going smoothly from one point to the next helps them understand information more easily. You can arrange things from beginning to end, small to large, top to bottom or by some other order. Just be sure to organize.

64.

Repeated use of um, ah, like, you know and some other useless noises can drive an audience crazy. It makes the speaker sound uncertain and unprepared, and it can leave listeners so annoyed that they can’t pay attention. Recently I attended a speech that was marked by so many ums that audience members were rolling their eyes. Was anybody grasping the intended message? Um, probably not.

65.

Many speakers finish up their speeches with question-and-answer (Q&A) sessions, but some let the Q & A go on without a clear end. The audience is often left confused about whether the meeting is over and when they can get up and leave. Do your listeners a favor by setting a time limit on questions, and close your speech with a specific end—even if it’s something simple like, “If you have any more questions, you know where to reach me.”

Or even more to the point, conclude your speech with “Thanks for your time.”

A garden that’s just right for you

Have you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum(总和) of its parts?    36   . But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.

●   37 

Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers(肥料).     38   . However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.

●Recall your childhood memories

Our model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood. Grandma’s rose garden and Dad’s vegetable garden might be good or bad, but that’s not what’s important.   39   --how being in those gardens made us feel. If you’d like to build a powerful bond with your garden, start by taking some time to recall the gardens of your youth.    40  . Then go outside and work out a plan to translate your childhood memories into your grown-up garden. Have fun.

A. Know why you garden

B. Find a good place for your own garden

C. It’s our experience of the garden that matters

D. It’s delightful to see so many beautiful flowers

E. Still others may simply enjoy being outdoors and close to plants

F. You can produce that kind of magical quality in your own garden, too

G. For each of those gardens, writer down the strongest memory you have

Ice dancing is for couples _______ a woman and a man skating together.

A. consisted of    B. having been consisted of

C. to consist of    D. consisting of

    As I enter my 40s, I’ve noticed many of my parents’ generation think social networking is something they are simply unable to understand. They fear that, should they try, they will somehow get it wrong; they will say the wrong thing, do the wrong thing or behave in a way that causes embarrassment(尴尬). But here’s the first secret of social media: Everyone feels this way.

I recently met a young actor who was complaining that her work demands that she join Microblog, but she always feels like she doesn’t have anything smart to say. It’s the same resistance (抵制)I hear from the older generation, who, however, have somehow believed that age is the barrier(障碍), rather than the differences of personal taste.

Here’s the second secret of social media: everybody uses it for more or less the same reasons. Older generations often sign up to stay in touch with children and relatives. We talk about this kind of communication like it’s some old-fashioned activity, but it is exactly why younger people use social media. The truth is that most people use social media to gently keep an eye on one another, to see how those they care about are doing without needing to ring them up on the phone every night.

And this is the last secret of social media: everyone gets to use them in their own way. Newcomers—younger and older—who worry about “getting it right” are thinking that there’s a right way to get them. But actually there isn’t. Personally, I talk a lot on Microblog. And some people post nothing and they use social media every day as readers. Social media companies would rather see people decorating their networks with pictures and posts, but there’s no rule against being a fly on the wall. It’s also a fine way to get involved.

We’re quick to forget that the web wasn’t invented by 13-year-olds; it was created by today’s seniors. I’d never try forcing those with no interest in social networks to use Microblog. But don’t let the talk of age divides put you off. There’s nothing to stop the older generation from joining in the network their own generation created.

25. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?  

  A. To share with us his personal experience using social media.

  B. To free the old generation from fearing using social media.  

  C. To explain why the old generation don’t use social media.

  D. To tell us a few secrets of social media that he discovered.

26.The expression “a fly on the wall” in the 4 ^th paragraph refers to _________.

  A. people who prefer reading online books     B. people who simply observe others’ posts

  C. people who cause trouble to others         D. people who post many fancy pictures

27. According to the author, which is a reason for old people’s fear using social media?

  A. They have no particular interest in social networking.

  B. They prefer staying in touch with relatives in real life.

  C. They believe they may be trapped in embarrassing situations.

  D. They have no idea which contents to post online.

28.Which of the following may best describe the structure of this passage?  

     A.                      B.                           C.                              D.   

One is no born able to speak a language. One is born able to make a noise. I have heard babies cry in America and in China. I can’t tell any difference. But when I hear someone from America speak English and her someone speak Chinese, I can tell you there are a lot of differences.

I believe a common(普遍的)problem with Chinese students’ learning English is that they were not taught to think in English. They have an idea spoken in English and want to translate the idea into Chinese, then they think in Chinese of the proper reply and translate it into English. After a long period of speaking the language, one begins to think in the foreign language naturally(自然地). You will learn faster if you begin to think in English at the very beginning of your study. Many students ask me: What can I do to improve my spoken English?

My reply is: The more English you speak, the better English you will speak. There are many things you can do to improve your spoken English. Of course, the best way is to live where English is spoken as a language of the country.

12．The cries of American and Chinese babies are___________.

13．The underlined sentence (in Paragraph 2) means that_______.

A.some teachers didn’t teach students to think in English

B.teachers never gave the students the way of learning English

C.students didn’t remember the way teachers taught them

D.teachers didn’t want their students to think in English

14．The underlined word “they” (in Paragraph 2) refers to “_________”.

15．According to the article, which of the following is TRUE?

A.You must think in English all the time.

B.You should always translate English into Chinese.

C.After speaking English for a long time, you may probably think in English language naturally.

D.The best way of learning English is to live in America.

Today we had a chemistry test. I found the test difficulty, but I tried hardly to do it. Suddenly Mary, my best friend, asking me to let her to copy my answers. After think for some time, I let her copy my answers. But after the test, all of us were called to the teacher’s office. The teacher was angry because we had same answers in the tests. We were warned not to cheat again so she would need to see our parents. I was very upset. I didn’t cheat. I was just helping a friend. Why does she punish me?

Future history books might record that we were robbed of the use of our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we fail to see anything on the way, Air travel gives you a bird’s eye view of the world ---or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train, you are moving so quickly that you do not see the countryside clearly. Car drivers are forever thinking about going on and on. They never want to stop. Is it the great motorways that attract them, or what? And as for sea travel, it hardly deserves mentioning. It is perfectly summed up in the words of the old song: “I joined the navy to see the world, and what did I see? I saw the sea.” You mention the place names in the world like EI Dorado, Kabul and someone is sure to say, “I have been there”, meaning I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.

   When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this, you suspend (中止) all experience; the present stops being a reality: you might just as well be dead.

  The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. H e experiences, the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.

48. The underlined words “get in your way” in Paragraph I can be replaced, by ____.

A. block your sights                                                       B. expand your range of vision

C. prevent you from going out of the plane halfway     D. make your travel continue

49. What does the author think of the travelers mentioned in Paragraph 1?

A. They get a good view of the landscape.

B. They make full use of their eyes.

C. They fail to see the scenery with their heart.

D. The y are eager to see everything on the way.

50. Why does “the present”mean “nothing ”when we travel at high speeds?

A. Because we change our aims all the time.

B. Because we are eager to go to another place.

C. Because we are looking forward to the future life.

D. Because we cannot enjoy the experience we have had.

51. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Different travelers   B. The use of eyes     C. Ways of traveling   D. True traveling
