第一节(共15小题; 每小题2分, 满分30分)

阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中, 选出最佳选项。

A

On a freezing cold day, a couple had to move into a small apartment because of their failure in business．The husband worked day and night to support the family but with no care of his wife．So she thought, “He doesn't love me any more, he just cares about his business ．．．not me”．

One day, she was about to take a shower when he stopped her at the door, “Let me take it first, okay？”“Why not me first？” she asked．“I am tired, honey, you take it later, okay？”She was entirely unhappy．

One day, she found nothing to do and turned on his computer．A few words came into her sight．Reading them, she burst into tears．It was his diary：Today, I was quite sad．She asked me why I was always taking the shower first, and I said to her, I was exhausted．She was unhappy．In her mind, I treated her not as well as usual, but what could I do? I was not as rich as before! We moved to the small apartment, and there was only one shower in the bathroom．It was so cold to take a shower in such a cold winter．But I found that if one person took the shower first, the room could get a little warmer．So every day I rushed to the bathroom first．I was thinking that, when she took the shower, the room would get warmer, even if it was only 1℃．

Now I cannot give her a comfortable life, take her to good restaurants, or buy expensive dresses for her, but at least, I can give her 1℃ love．

21．Why did the couple move to the small apartment?

A．Both of them were out of work．

B．They wanted to live a better life．

C．They were too poor to live in the former house．

D．The man could take better care of his business．

22．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “exhausted”in paragragh 4？

A．Devoted．B．Worried．C．Injured．D．Tired．

23．What can be inferred from the passage?

A．They would live a richer life soon．

B．The woman misunderstood her husband．

C．The woman would get angry after reading the diary．

D．The man would care less about his business．

24．What's the best title of the passage?

A．A Love Story B．Fight for the Bathroom

C．A Suffering Couple D．1℃ Love

B

The world is filled with smart, talented, educated and gifted people. We meet them every day. A few days ago, my car was not running well. I pulled it into a garage, and the young mechanic(机修工) had it fixed in just a few minutes. He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine. I was amazed. The sad truth is that great talent is not enough.

I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn. I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $ 100,000 a year. A business consultant（顾问） who specializes in the medical trade told me how many doctors and dentists struggled financially（财政）. It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase, “They are one skill away from great wealth.”

There is an old saying that goes, “Job means‘just over broke(破产)’.” And unfortunately, I would say that the saying applies to（适用于）millions of people. Because school does not think financial intelligence is intelligence, and most workers “live within their means”. They work and they pay the bills. Instead I recommend young people to seek work for what they will learn, more than what they will earn.

When I ask the class I teach, “How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald’s?”，almost all the students raise their hands. I then ask, “So if most of you can cook a better hamburger, how come McDonald’s makes more money than you?”The answer is obvious: McDonald’s is excellent at business systems. The reason why

so many talented people are poor is that they focus on（集中于）making a better hamburger but know little or nothing about business systems. The world is filled with talented poor people. They focus on perfecting their skills at making a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.

25. The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by ________.

A. spend more than they can afford

B. do in their own way

C. live in their own circle

D. live within what they earn

26. Why do talented people earn so little according to the author?

A. They don’t work hard enough.

B. They lack financial intelligence.

C. They don’t make full use of their talents.

D. They have no

specialized skills.

27. The success of McDonald’s lies in its ________.

A. skills at making hamburgers

B. good business systems

C. talented workers

D. excellent

service

28. The main purpose of the author is to tell us ________.

A. how young people can find a satisfactory job

B. what schools should teach

students

C. why so many talented people are poor

D. how

McDonald's makes much money

C

Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back.

But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?

Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.

Don’t let other people set goal for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.

Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.

Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地); the best way to keep love is to give it wings（翅膀).

Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.

Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure you can always carry easily.

Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.

29. The underlined sentence “Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.”means

that _______.

A. Nothing is possible

B. If we don’t give up, there is always hope

C. Although you try, nothing will change.

D. You should learn to give up

30. Why can’t we use time carelessly? ___________

A. Because time never returns.

B. Because times will get back.

C. Because we are too poor.

D. Because time is too expensive.

31. If you run through life so fast, you will ____________.

A. lose your own treasure that you can always carry easily

B. lose love by holding it too tightly

C. forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going

D. not be afraid of the difficulties

32. According to the passage, which is the best title? ___________

A. Nothing is impossible.

B. Treat your life in a right way.

C. Things you can’t do.

D. Glass balls are easy to be broken.

D

It’s good to make mistakes, and here is why．First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things．It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing．If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You can’t．” Look around you．With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new．Another good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learning．Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb．When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work．Finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success．Why? Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some numbers of things before you succeed．Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer．But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences（后果）of a mistake．Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn’t work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again．We all have limited time and money so don’t blow them all on one approach to a problem．Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and allocate （分配）these resources properly so you can learn, make corrections, and try it again．If you accept and use your mistakes in this way , you can make great progress in your business and your career．

There is an old saying that goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough．”

So go ahead and make mistakes．And learn．And grow．And succeed．

33．From the second paragraph, we can conclude that _______．

A．mistakes are unnecessary for development B．mistakes are better than not

trying

C．It’s common for people to make mistakes D．we are afraid of trying new things 34．The underlined word “eliminate”in paragragh 3 means _______．A．avoid B．remove C．solve D．accept 35．What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make a mistake?

A．Never mind, I can always try again． B．Look at this mess．Anyone would be upset．

C．OK! Now I can learn something． D. I’d better stay out of trouble．第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

Improve your memory

Some people often complain about their poor memory. Actually there are several ways to keep your memory sharp. This article will show you some simple tips.

36 When you say these things, you begin to plant the thought in your mind and it may become true. Tell yourself you can remember anything as long as you put your mind to the task. You will see an improvement in your memory.

37 If you have trouble remembering phone numbers or other blocks of numbers, it can be really helpful to try this method. If you remember them in smaller groups, like two or three digits(数字), it will also be much easier to remember the number. Be sure to see a doctor if you really are losing your memory. A poor memory can be a sign that you are in low spirits. 38

Playing games also helps improve your memory. Any type of games that involves(涉及) remembering things is wonderful. 39 Try and remember it when you have nothing better to do. A useful tip for anyone interested in games is to often work on solving word puzzles and similar types of games. 40 Not only will your memory probably improve, you will also have a great deal of fun.

A．Remember numbers in small groups.

B．Take a right attitude.

C．Stop telling yourself you have a weak memory.

D．If you don't like games, you can go over a list of “to do things”．

E．If you don't know your condition, you cannot treat it!

F．If so, treating it could be the key to getting your memory back.

G．Such games use the same skills needed to remember facts and help keep the mind sharp.

作文参考范文(1)

Nowadays_many_students_would_like_to_compare_themselves_with_others_not_only_in_ study_but_also_in_life._

In my opinion, comparing with other people is a good thing to us. Firstly, our society needs comparison to develop. Only when comparing ourselves with others can

we know the aspects which we are weak in, then we'll make efforts to improve ourselves

to a higher level. As an old saying says “Among any three people walking ，I will

find something to learn for sure. Their good qualities are to be followed, and their shortcoming s are to be avoided ”. Secondly , things are different from each other . Only through comparison, can we know the differences between us, and find the world

is colorful. So it is advisable to compare ourselves with others. In this way, the society can be indirectly developed.

参考范文(2)

Nowadays_many_students_would_like_to_compare_themselves_with_others_not_only_in_ study_but_also_in_life._

To be frank, I don't think it is wise to compare ourselves with others. I don't deny the fact that we can benefit from it, but personally I think it does more harm than good. As our classmates have mentioned, by comparing ourselves with others, we may lose heart, get lost, and it may lead to breaking off the relationship with our friends. What's worse, it may cause the children's negative emotion, such as unhappiness, insecurity and envy. If parents pay more attention to other children instead of their children, they may neglect their children's feelings, which will

lead to the children's misunderstanding and vicious circle. So in order to have a harmony society it's unwise to compare ourselves with others.
