Across the street was a gas station, which was closed for Christmas, but I noticed a family standing under the narrow overhang to keep dry. I wondered briefly why they were there but then forgot about them as I couldn’t wait to see my gifts.Once I got home, there was hardly any time to enjoy my gifts. My grandparents were still waiting for us to have Christmas dinner together at their house. As we drove down the highway, I noticed that the family was still there.The closer we got to my grandparents’ house, the slower the car went. Suddenly, my father U-turned and said, “I can’t stand it!” “What?” asked my mother. “It’s those people back there at the gas station, standing in the rain.”When my father pulled into the station, I saw there were five of them: the parents and three children—two girls and a small boy. Then we learned that the family was waiting for the bus to Birmingham, where the man planned to find a job.“Well, that bus won’t come along for several hours. Winborn’s just a few milesaway, and there is a shed (棚) with a cover there,” my father advised. “I will run you up there.”Then they climbed into our car,. My father looked back and asked the children if Father Christmas had found them. Three sad faces gave him his answer.“Well, Father Christmas said he was having trouble finding you, so he just left your toys at my house this morning. Let’s go to get them first,” my father said. All at once, the three children’s faces lit up.When we arrived at our house, one girl spied a lovely doll, that little boy took a ball, and the other girl picked up something else. That was the Christmas when I learned the joy of making others happy.5. At the gas station the family might feel______.A. frightenedB. disappointedC. anxiousD. delighted6. The three children received Christmas gifts thanks to_______.A. the authorB. the author’s fatherC. their parentsD. their grandparents7. We can learn from the text that the author’s father_____.A. knew that family very wellB. got lost on the way to WinbornC. was happy to help those in troubleD. sent that family to Birmingham8. What would be the best title for the text?A. Father Christmas saved usB. My father never gives upC. A hard-working familyD. Special Christmas giftsCShe was returning from teaching out in a small community (社区). It was a moonless night, and a heavy snow was falling.She remembered back to when she had first started teaching out in small communities. In those days she had always picked up hitchhikers (搭便车者), until the day her sister told her of a friend who had been killed by a hitchhiker, all because she had stopped out of kindness to help him during a storm. Her family worried about her safety over the hitchhikers until the family heard her promise: “No more hitchhikers!”Then, one night, she saw a man waving. She slowed down for him, but now as he ran toward the car in the dark she shook with fear. Yet she thought that if he was truly in need she couldn’t leave him here in this storm.The stranger explained that his car was broken, and she told him to get in the car. They drove for an hour into the next city and she took him to a telephone booth (公用电话亭). When he reported back to her that a family member would soon come for him, she wished him well and left.Tears fell on her cheeks as she drove away. She felt as though she had beenholding her breath for an hour. “I hope they’ll understand why I had to break my promise,” she thought.9. What can we learn about the woman?A. She taught in small communities.B. She used to be a hitchhiker.C. She was a taxi driver.D. She seldom picked up strangers.10. What made her family worried about her safety?A. She had been hurt by a hitchhiker.B. Her sister’s friend was killed by a hitchhiker.C. There were often snowstorms on her way home.D. Her car often broke down on her way home.11. We can infer from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph that _________.A. She regretted picking up the stranger.B. She felt too tired to breathe.C. She had been afraid being with the stranger.D. She had been too careful driving in the storm.12. We can infer from the passage that the woman is___________.A. kind-heartedB. outstandingC. cautiousD. carelessDMany parents worry that their children’s eating habits may not be good enough to keep healthy. Some children ask for the same food over and over again, some may refuse to try anything new, and some may keep asking for snacks(点心). Therefore, having healthy eating habits becomes one of the most important lessons that a child should learn. Most parents struggle with managing good eating habits and nutrition(营养) for their children. Parents should make a plan for their children’s nutritional needs.Start your child’s day with a good breakfast. Breakfast is necessary to provide the nutrition for an active day. Studies show that children do better in study when they begin a day with a good breakfast.Allow your child to help you plan and prepare a meal. He will be glad to eat foods that he has helped to put on the table.The mealtime environment has a lot to do with how your child will feel about food. Try to serve your meals at the same place at the same time of a day. Keep the meal itself as the main event and leave the toys and television for later use.Snacks are also important. We can give our body and brain energy by eating snacks between meals. Children are often hungriest in the afternoon after school andin the evening.Offer snacks at regular time between meals. This way, your child won’t refuse a meal because he knows a snack is soon to follow. More importantly, when offering snacks, you should be careful with what to choose.13. The main idea of the second paragraph is that ___ .A. Most children go to school without eating breakfast.B. One shouldn’t eat too much for breakfast.C. A good breakfast is important to children.D. Most people haven’t realized the importance of having a good breakfast.14. To help their children form healthy eating habits, parents ____ .A. should encourage their children to eat more often at school.B. can ask the children to help with meal planning and preparation.C. must make the mealtime environment as quiet as possible.D. should serve some snacks while having a meal.15. What would most probably be talked about in the next paragraph of the passage?A. What to eat for lunch and supper.B. Why snacks are important.C. Advice on how to keep healthy.D. Examples of healthy snacks.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。

AWhen I was young, I wished for a good car and a big house. That was my idea of success.I took all the advanced classes and tried to do well in the exams with my mind set on going to a key school. I just knew that I would somehow become famous and be able to afford the car and the dream house. All the way through junior years, my mind was planning this beautiful future.Then in the eleventh grade, many losses changed my mind. First, one of my friends died at 16. Soon after, my great-grandmother passed away, followed by my beloved fourth-grade teacher. These events left me not knowing what to do or where to go. Death had never touched me so closely.After a long period of emptiness, it finally struck me: Life is not promised and neither is future success. Though I was attempting to achieve material success, I was not enjoying my daily life. I realized that finding inner peace, purpose and happiness will stick with me forever and that is real success.Enjoying life’s precious quirks (偶发事件) makes an ordinary person more successful than a wealthy person who isn’t content and takes everything for granted. The summer before senior years, my attitude changed greatly. Instead of memorizing facts, I began learning skills. Instead of focusing on the future, I focused on today and the many blessings and successes that came with it.I still get excellent grades, but now I devote weeks to studying instead of struggling for exams, and I think about the future with a deeper sense of meaning.

But if we consider the situation of the young people aged from eight to eighteen, we should think again.What we often see nowadays is that young people juggle a larger number of electronic devices as they study. While working, they also surf on the Internet, send out emails, answer the telephone and listen to music on their iPods. In a sense, they are spending a large amount of time in fruitless efforts as they multitask.Multitasking is even changing the relationship between family members. As young people give so much attention to their own worlds, they seem to have no time to spend with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house, nor can they eat at the family table.Multitasking also has an effect on young people’s performance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of the effects of modern gadgets (器具) on their performance of tasks, many young people gave a positive response. However, the response from the worlds of education and business was not quite as positive. Educators feel that multitasking by children has a serious effect on later development of study skills. They believe that many college students now need help to improve their study skills. Similarly, employers feel that young people entering the job market need to be taught all over again, as modern gadgets have made it unnecessary for them to learn special skills to do their work.29.
