Some people have minds that shineonly in certain situations. A young man with an unusual gift in writing may find himself speechless before a pretty girl when he speaks. He may not be able to find the right words. Butdon ’ t make the mistake of thinking him stupid. With a pen and paper, he can express himselfbetter than anybody else.Other people may fool you into overestimating(过高估计) their intelligence by putting up agood front. A student who listens attentively and takes notes in class is bound to (一定会) makea favorable impression on his teachers. But when it comes to exams, he may score near thebottom of the class.In a word, you can’ t judge someone by appearance. The only way to determine a personintelligence is to get to know him. Then you can see how he reacts to different situations. Themore situations you see, the better your judgment is likely to be. So take you r time. Don’ t judgea book by its cover.51.The passage suggests that ______.A.a good writer may not be a good speakerB.a good writer is always a good speakerC.a speechless person always writes wellD.a good writer will find himself speechless52.According to this passage, a student who listens attentively and takes notes in class ______.A.is an intelligent studentB.may not be an intelligent studentC.will score better in examsD.will not be a good student53.

It has little to do with the usual challenges, such as flood, rising fuel prices and crop-eat ing insects. The country’s farmers are getting older, and there are fewer people standing in line to take their place. National agricultural census (普查) figures show that the fastest-growing group of farmers is the part over 65. Merriga is afraid the average age will be even higher when the 2012 statistics are completed.Merrigan, a former college professor, is making stops at universities across the country in hopes of encouraging more students to think about careers in agriculture. Aside from trying to stop the graying of America’s farmers, her work is made tougher by a recent blog posting that put agriculture at No. 1 on a list of “useless” college degrees. Top federal agriculture officials are talking about the posting, and it has the attention of agricultural organizations across the country. “There couldn’t be anything that’s more incorrect,”Merrigan said. “We know that there aren’t enough qualified graduates to fill the jobs that are out there in American agriculture.”In addition, a growing world population that some experts predict will require 70% more food production by 2050, she said. “I truly believe we’re at a golden age of agriculture. Global demand is at an all-time record high, and global supplies are at all-time record lows,” said Matt Rush, director of the Texas Farm Bureau. “Production costs are going to be valuable enough that younger people are going to have the opportunity to be involved in agriculture.”The Department of Agriculture has programs aimed at developing more farmers and at increasing interest in locally grown food. The National Young Farmers’ Coalition has also been pushing for state and federal policy changes to make it easier for new farmers.Ryan Best, president of Future Farmers of America, has been living out of a suitcase, traveling the country and visiting with high school students about careers in agriculture. The 21-year-old Best hopes his message—that this is a new time in agriculture—will motivate the next generation to turn around the statistics. “Never be fore have we had the innovations (创新) in technology which have led to agriculture in this country being the most efficient it has ever been,”he said. “There’s really a place for everybody to fit in.” 1. What is the new challenge to American agriculture?A. Fewer and older farmers.B. Higher fuel prices.C. More natural disasters.D. Lower agricultural output.2. Why is Merrigan visiting universities across the country?A. To draw federal agriculture officials’ attention.B. To select qualified agriculture graduates.C. To clarify a recent blog posting.D. To talk more students into farming careers.3. According to Matt Rush, American agriculture will provide opportunities for younger peoplebecause__. A. the government will cover production costs B. global food supplies will be even lowerC. investment in agriculture will be profitableD. America will increase its food export4. What do the underlined words “to turn around the statistics” in the last paragraph mean?A. To re-analyze the result of the national census.B. To increase agricultural production.C. To bring down the average age of farmers.D. To invest more in agriculture.第四节阅读表达If you are worried about things and are under a lot of stress at work or school, then you are probably not sleeping well. Worry can keep you awake, tossing and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fall asleep. When you wak e up, you don’t feel refreshed, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article entitled Stress and Sleep, indicates that ___. Dr. Winkle says, ―The more we worry, the less we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with stress. If we can find a way to get a good night’ s sleep,”he adds, ―we can often find the energy to deal with what’s worrying us.”So, what is a good night’s sleep? Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in orderto keep healthy varies a lot. Seven hours in about the average amount, though strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more refreshed.Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired. A bedtime drink can also help, but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine and will keep you awake. “When you put the light out,” Dr. Winkle says, “concentrate on relaxing your muscles, working slowly up from your feet, and you’ll be asleep before you know it.”1. What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words)__________________________________________________________________2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one? People shouldn’t go to sleep immediately but should take a break after working late in the night._______________________________________________________________________________3. Please fill in the blank in the second paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.(Please answer within 10 words)______________________________________________________________________________ 4. Someone says that the longer you sleep, the better you feel. Try to find some arguments from the passage against the idea. (Please answer within 30 words)_______________________________________________________________________________ 5. Translate the underlined sentence in the first paragraph into Chinese._______________________________________________________________________________。

Our 26 have done a lot for us, directly or indirectly and most of us 27 everything to their kindness and love.When we 28 them respect, whether it is by bowing to them, or 29 them with a smile, or offering them any help they need, it is one way of 30 our own love and gratitude to them. 31 , elders have also been through all the years you are 32 and know a little more about the world than you do.It is 33 that you do not agree with the belief of your elders, but this is nothing new. All younger generations have always 34 with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human 35 . However much you disagree with them, give them credit for their 36 .With changing times and 37 influences, youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders. Youngsters should 38 express their views and if there are arguments, they should not 39 their voices.If there is no space on sofas or chairs, children will immediately 40 their places, and sit on the carpet. In buses and trains, youngsters are 41 to give up their places to older people. This is not a 42 of who has more rights. It is simply that those who are younger have the strength to bear 43 , or tolerate unpleasantness, so it is natural to show consideration to those who are older and perhaps at a 44 disadvantage.When you do simple things as a mark of respect, elders become 45 that youngsters care for them, and they respond with affection and kindness.26.

For example, the proverb, “plucking up a crop 27 (help) it grow”, is based on the following story.It is said that a short—tempered man in the Song Dynasty (960—1279) was very anxious to help 28 rice crop grow up quickly. He was thinking about 29 day and night. But the crop was growing much slower than he expected.One day, he came up with an idea 30 he would pluck up all of his crop a few inches. He did so the next day.He was very tired 31 doing this for a whole day, 32 he felt very happy since the crop did “grow”33 (high).His son heard about this and went to see the crop. Unfortunately the leaves of the crop began to wither.This proverb is saying we have to let things go in their 34 (nature) course. Being too anxious to help an event develop often 35 (result) in the contrary to our intention.IV. 完形填空Sunday nights are supposed to be a time for ____36____, but for many people it is one of the most stressful times of the week. For many Americans, Sunday nights make people feelstressed and depressed, Denver TV station KMGH reported. “I never sleep o n Sunday night very well because I’m worried about going to work on Monday morning,” one ____37____ told KMGH. “My job is very ____38____ and you kind of have to gear up for Monday and getting back into that.” After sitting at their desks all workweek long, people can’t help ____39____ look forward to the weekend, KMGH reported. But once it comes around, it can go by ____40____. By the time Sunday night comes around, it’s all but over and that is when the panic ____41____ for many people.“I think what most people experience are thoughts of dread,” said psychotherapist Dr David Wright. “Before going back to work they experience withdrawal behaviors, they don’t ____42____their Sundays.” Wright said Sunday night stress is very ____43____ and hit all ____44___ of life. “Really it’s like having a six-day workweek because you spend the whole day thinking about going to work and dreading going to work and anticipating things happening at ____45____ that may be stressful,” said Wright. “I think people can identify i t many different ways. It’s the same as the fear of flying or the fear of taking a test.

This is a good rule to follow when trying to judge the intelligence of others. Some people have minds that shine only in certain situations. A young man with an unusual gift in writing may find himself speechless before a pretty girl when he speaks. He may not be able to find the right words. But don’t make the mistake of thinking him stupid. With a pen and paper, he can express himself better than anybody else.Other people may fool you into overestimating(过高估计) their intelligence by putting up a good front. A student who listens attentively and takes notes in class is bound to (一定会) make a favorable impression on his teachers. But when it comes to exams, he may score near the bottom of the class.In a word, you can’t judge someone by appearance. The only way to determine a person’s intelligence is to get to know him. Then you can see how he reacts to different situations. The more situations you see, the better your judgment is likely to be. So take you r time. Don’t judgea book by its cover.51.

Polly’s son, Jim, had great difficulty in school. He was classified as the educationally handicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. His parents knew his difficulties, but they always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. Shortly after Jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. After his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper.“Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was killed in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known that the last time I had talked to him would be the last time. If I had only known that, I would have said to him, ‘Jim, I love you and I’m always so proud of you.’ I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he had brought to the lives of the people who loved him. I would have taken the time to appreciate his beautiful smile, his laughter, and his genuine love to other people.“When I put all the good things on the scale and try to balance them with all the irri tating (恼人的) things such as the radio that was always too loud, the haircut that wasn’t to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., I find that the irritations really don’t amount to much.“I won’t get another chance to tell my son all that I wou ld have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, do have a chance. Tell your young people what you would want them to hear as ifit may be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was the morning of the day when he died. He called me to say, ‘H i, Mom! I just called to say I love you. You have to go to work now. Bye.’ That day, he gave me something to treasure forever. ”If there is any purpose at all for Jim’s death, maybe it is to make others appreciate life more and to tell people, especially family members, that they should take the time to let each other know just how much they care.
