The 41 name of the United Kingdom is 42 ―The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland‖.43 is larger and richer than Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and has the largest 44 of the United Kingdom, so people often use the 45 ―England‖ and ―English‖ when they46 ―Britain‖ and ―British‖.

In my own experience, the people I respect the most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded the most discipline (纪律) from their students.I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school. I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person. I remember very clearly a sign on her classroom door. It was a simple sign that said, ―Laboratory : in this room the first five letters of the word was stressed not the last seven.‖ In other words, labor for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches.She prepared her work very carefully and told us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her. Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same. She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of the papers to show that she had read them.I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least. But as time goes by, this discipline really seems to benefit the students.56. Which of the following is considered a good teacher by the writer?A. A patient teacher.B. An honest teacher.C. A strict teacher.D. An easy – going teacher.57. The teacher put up the sign on her classroom door .A. to remind the students that this room was a laboratoryB. to advise the students to follow the disciplinesC. to warn the students not to be carelessD. to tell the students to work hard in the classroom58. What‘s the writer‘s opinion of discipline?A. It makes the students dislike their teachers.B. It does good to the students in the long run.C. It‘s too much for young children.D. It does more harm than good to the students.59. What‘s the Chinese for the underlined word ―oratory‖?A. 演讲B. 讲稿C. 访谈D. 采访BIn the traditional marriage, the man worked at a job to earn money for the family. Most men worked in an office, a factory, or some other place away from the home. Since the man earned the money, they paid the bills. The money was used for food, -clothes, the house, and other family needs, the man made most of the decisions. He was the boss.In the traditional marriage, the woman seldom worked away from the house. She stayed at home to care for the children and her husband. She cooked meals, cleaned the house, washed the clothes, and did other housework. Her job at home was very important.In recent years, many couples continues to have a traditional relationship of the kind. The man has a job and earns the money for the family. The woman stays at home and cared for the children and the house. Many Americans are happy with the kind of marriage. But some other Americans have a different impression of marriage and family responsibilities.There are two important differences in male and female roles now. One is that both men and women have many more choices. They may choose to marry or to stay single. They may choose to work or stay at home. Both men and women may choose roles that are comfortable for them.A second difference in male and female roles is that within marriage many decisions and responsibilities are shared. The husband and wife may choose to have children, or they may not. If they have children, the man takes care of them some of the time, all of the time or not at all. The woman may want to stay at home and take care of the children, or she may vant to go to work. Men and women now decide these things together in a marriage. Many married people now share these decisions and responsibilities of their families.60. Which of the following is NOT true in the traditional marriage ?A. Men worked at a job to earn money for the family.B. The woman made most of decisions.C. The woman stayed at home to care the children.D. The man paid the bills.61.

The airline had announced her departure and standing near the security gate, they hugged and he said, ―I love you. I wish you enough.‖She in turn said, ―Dad, our life together has been more than enough. Y our love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough, too, Dad.‖ They kissed and she left.He walked over toward the window where I was seated. Standing there I could see he wanted and needed to cry. I tried not to intrude ( 打扰) on his privacy, but he welcomed me in by asking, ―Did you ever say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?‖―Yes, I have,‖ I replied. ―Forgive me for asking, but why is th is a forever good-bye?‖ ―I am old and she lives much too far away. I have challenges ahead, and the reality is, the next trip back will be for my funeral（葬礼）,‖ he said.―When you were saying good-bye I heard you say, ‗I wish you enough‘. May I ask what tha t means?‖He began to smile. ―That‘s a wish that has been handed down for many generations within my family. My parents used to say it to everyone.‖He paused for a moment, looking up as if trying to remember it in detail, and then he smiled even more. ―When we said ‗I wish you enough‘, we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to sustain（使……持续）them,‖ he continued and then turning toward me he shared the following:―I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright.I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more.I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive.I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger.I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.I wish you enough ‗Hellos‘ to get you enough the final ‗Good-byes‘.‖Then he walked away.I WISH YOU ENOUGH! 64．The father was at the airport to ________.A．welcome his daughter home.

But his positive (积极的) attitude toward life has given hope to many people.Born in 1911 to a poor family in a small town in Illinois, his father was a failed salesman who drank too much. It was in these difficult times, though, that Reagan developed the powerful optimism (乐观) that would serve him so well. He always believed better times laying ahead, and this was reflected in his high school yearbook entry. "Life is one grand, sweet song, so start the music," he wrote.As a teenager, Reagan spent summers working as a lifeguard at a local beach, saving 77 lives in seven years. He graduated from college in 1932 with a degree in economics and sociology. But America was still in the middle of the Great Depression (经济大萧条), and jobs were hard to find. Reagan finally found work as a radio sports announcer and this road led him to Hollywood in 1937. During the 20 year film career, he never became a leading star. As in his lifeguard days, Reagan loved to play the hero and only took the role of a bad guy once in more than 50 films.A talented speaker who was always able to connect with his audience, Reagan became involved in (参与) politics in the 1950s. This popular touch led to him being elected the governor of California in 1967.All the while Reagan was in California, he had his eye on the White House. In 1980, aged 69, he became the oldest man ever elected president.He held office from 1981 to 1989, the first president to serve two complete terms after World War Ⅱ. When he left, aged 77, he held the highest popularity rate of any retiring (离职的) president in US history.He remained positive even when he discovered he had an illness that would destroy him. "I will leave with the greatest love for this country of ours and eternal (永恒的) optimism for its future," he wrote.68. Reagan can be best described as a man with______.A. firmnessB. humourC. optimismD. talent69. Which is the correct order of events described in the passage?a.

Reagan was elected the governor of California.A. a,c,d,e,bB. e,c,d,b,aC. b,a,c,d,eD. c,d,b,e,a70. When the author of Reagan‘s biography says "The world was a vast opportunity for him," hereally means that _______.A. Reagan achieved much in his whole lifeB. Reagan could have done much betterC. Reagan did much for America and the worldD. Reagan was a very lucky man第二卷非选择题(共三节满分35 分）第一节：单词拼写（共10 小题，每小题1分，满分10分）根据下列句子所给首字母在横线上写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。
