The eager Apollo followed her closely behind, calling out to her to stop. He was afraid that this might be the last time he saw her. Through rough fields and pathless woods she ran, but the sound of his pursuing feet ever grew nearer. As he ran he begged his beloved maiden to slow down, for he feared that she might fall and hurt her sparkling skin on the rocky roads. But she never cared so much about that. At last she was breathless and cried to her father, a river god, for help.No sooner had her prayer been uttered than answered, for she had instantly found herself glued to the ground and a layer of soft bark growing over her fair skin. She had been turned into a laurel tree. To show his undying love for the maiden, he decided that the laurel would be his favorite tree and should be the prize of honor and fame for deathless poets and poetry.

But after half an hour it was still raining. Seeing this, the guard at the gate offered to lend me his umbrella. I accepted it at once. Thanks to his help, I got home on time without getting wet. The next morning, when I returned the umbrella to the guard, I said thank you to him and left him a note expressing my gratitude sincerely. To my surprise, he said no one had ever written him to say thank you, and it meant a lot to him.So in my opinion, saying thank you to others is not only easy but also meaningful to the person who says it and the receiver!。

Later, with the help of some kind people, Hans had a chance to go to school. In 1828, he went to university, where he devoted himself to literature and writing stories and poems.

While you probably know a lot about your favorite type of music, it can be a rewarding experience to enlarge your horizons（眼界）, discovering artists and types of music that you’re not familiar with. Who knows, you might discover you like certain types of music you never even considered.Have you ever wondered about the history and influences of your favorite types of music ? For example, did you know that rock ‘n’ roll originated（起源）from the blues, and that the blues began as a form of musical expression for African Americans during slavery？Did you know that most hip-hop is heavily influenced by early rhythm blues and jazz ?There are many fun ways to learn about different musical styles and their historical roots. For example, if you like hip-hop, listen to some of your favorite CDs and take note of the samples the performers used to create the songs. There is a possibility that the artist used parts of older songs to create the music. You can go to the library or online to learn more about the artists and listen to more of their music by checking out CDs from the library or downloading songs online for a small fee.You can learn so much about culture and history just by paying attention to different types of music and what is being expressed in the songs. There are so many different styles of music to learn about, and you owe it to yourself to make an effort to listen to and learn about them.51．The main topic of this passage is _____.A. creating musicB. learning about musicC. enjoying your favorite musicD. performing music 52．What music did African Americans use to express their feelings of being slaves ?A. Rock ‘n’ roll.B. Hip-hopC. The blues.D. Jazz.53．How can you learn about culture and history through music ?A. By caring about what is being expressed in music.B. By creating music from older songs yourself.C. By writing down the names of the music.D. By keeping a record of fees after downloading songs online.54．By saying the underlined sentence in the last paragraph, the author probably means that _____.A. you should return something to musicB. you should try harder to learn about musicC. you should borrow music CDs from othersD. you should buy music CDs yourselfBFor better eyesight, doctors advise limiting the hours of screen time and encourage having enough eye resting time.However, another study shows that sitting in front of computer or TV screens for long hours is not the only reason for myopia (近视). An Australian research team studied young children in Sydney and Singapore to find the reasons for myopia.The research team found that the prevalence (流行) of myopia among children in Sydney was lower than children in Singapore, even though they spent more time in front of computer and TV screens. The major finding is that children in Sydney spend longer hours on outdoor activities than those in Singapore.Indoor and outdoor sports activities both make the eyes focus on more distant objects, which prevents the eyes from changing shape. But outdoor activities may better help avoid myopia than indoor sports activities.Jane Gwiazda, who does research in sight problems, says: “Natural light is good for eye growth. And extra vitamin D from the sun might contribute to eye growth.”Many doctors suggest that every child gets its first eye test done when he/she is about two and half years old, and even if his/her sight seems perfect.It is necessary for myopic children to wear glasses to prevent headaches, trouble reading or injuries. It is also important that schools invite doctors to test their students’ eyes.If that is not possible, school teachers should at least encourage parents and children to have regular eye examinations and wear glasses. And parents should remember not only to limit the total screen time for their children, but also to encourage them to spend time outdoors.55．What’s the aim of the study by the Australian research team ?A. To find the ways to treat myopia.B. To find the reasons for myopia.C. To prove the bad effects of myopia.D. To prove the prevalence of myopia.56．Why are there fewer children with myopia in Sydney than in Singapore ?A. Because Sydney children watch less TV.B. Because Sydney children have more eye resting time.C. Because Sydney children do more outdoor sports.D. Because Sydney children use computers less.57．What conclusion can we draw from the passage ?A. Sydney children don’t study hard.B. Singapore children do few exercises.C. Room light does harm to children’s eyes.D. Outdoor activities do more good to eyes.58．Which of the following statements is TRUE ?A. Children should have eye tests as soon as they reach school age.B. Doing outdoor activities with no glasses is good for myopia children.C. Children should limit their time in the sun in order to protect their eyes.D. Focusing on distant objects can help the eyes keep their original shape.CWhy did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road.“Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,” the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill.“Eco-passages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. “These eco-passages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid r oad accidents,” said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society.But do animals actually use the eco-passages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an eco-passage that went under a highway. This showed that the lions used the passage.Builders of eco-passages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals like salamanders(火蜥蜴) and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses.The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an animaloverpass!59．The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that _______.A. wild animals have become more dangerousB. the driving condition has improved greatlyC. the measure for protecting wildlife fails to workD. an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents 60．From the story, we know an eco-passage is ______.A. an underground path for carsB. a path for animals to cross the roadC. a bridge for animals to get over a riverD. a fence built for the safety of the area61．When the writer says that “animals seem to be catching on”(Para. 6), he means __.A. animals begin to learn to use eco-passagesB. animals begin to realize the dangers on the roadC. animals are crossing the road in groupsD.. animals are increasing in number62．The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because _____.A. wild animals may attack carsB. wild animals may jam the roadC. they may see wild animals on eco-passagesD. they may see wild animals in the parkDIt had been some time since Jack had seen the old man. College, career, and life itself got in the way. In fact, Jack moved all the time across the country to achieve his dreams. There, in the rush of his busy life, Jack had little time to think about the past and often no time to spend with his wife and son. He was working on his future, and nothing could stop him.Over the phone, his mother told him, “Mr. Belser died last night. The funeral (葬礼) is Wednesday.” Memories flashed through his mind like an old newsreel as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days.“Jack, did you hear me?”“Oh, sorry, Mom. Yes, I heard you. It’s been so long since I thought of him. I’m sorry, but I honestly thought he died years ago,” Jack said.“Well, he didn’t forget you. Every time I saw him, he’d ask how you were doing. He’d reminisc e (回忆) about the many days you spent over ‘his side of the fence’ as he put it,” Mom told him.You know, Jack, after your father died, Mr. Belser stepped in to make sure you had a man’s influence in your life,” she said.“He’s the one who taught me carpent ry (木工). I wouldn’t be in this business if it weren’t for him. He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important… Mom, I’ll be there for the funeral,” Jack said.Busy as he was, he kept his word. Jack caught the next flight to his hometow n. Mr. Belser’s funeral was small and uneventful (平凡的). He had no children of his own, and most of his relatives had passed away.The night before he had to return home, Jack and his Mom stopped by to see the old house next door one more time, which was ex actly as he remembered. Every step held memories. Every picture, every piece of furniture… Jack stopped suddenly.“What’s wrong, Jack?” his Mom asked.“The box is gone,” he said.“What box?” Mom asked.“There was a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk. I must have asked him a thousand times what was inside. All he’d ever tell me was ‘the thing I value most’,” Jack said.It was gone. Everything about the house was exactly how Jack remembered it, except the box. He figured someone from the Belser family had taken it.“Now, I’ll never know what was so valuable to him,” Jack said sadly.Returning to his office the next day, he found a package on his desk. The return address caught his attention.“Mr. Harold Belser” it read.Jack tore open the pa ckage. There inside was the gold box and an envelope. Jack’s hands shook as he read the note inside.“Upon my death, please forward this box and its contents to Jack Bennett. It’s the thing I valued most in my life.” Asmall key was taped to the letter. His heart racing, and tears filling his eyes, Jack carefully unlocked the box. There inside he found a beautiful gold pocket watch. Running his fingers slowly over the fine cover, he opened it.Inside he found these words carved: “Jack, thanks for your time!Harold Belser.”“Oh, My God! This is the thing he valued most…”Jack held the watch for a few minutes, then called his assistant and put off his appointments to the next week. “Why?” his assistant asked.“I need some time to spend with my son,” he said.63．Why did Jack think Mr. Belser died years ago?A.

The Lost Childhood DaysEAs computers become all the more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly depending on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more wide-spread among university students. Almost all their homework and essays are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.It's faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that's why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear."When I'm writing with a pen, I find I often can't remember how to write a character, though I feel I’m familiar with it.""I'm not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper."Many students don't feel this is something to worry about. Now that it's more convenient and quick to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei , the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said "Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic(审美的) value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only have their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer's emotion(情绪). Through one's handwriting, people can get to know one's thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的)and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.67．The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because______.A. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essaysB. they find it not easy to remember how to write a characterC. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and convenientlyD. computers have become popular in China.68．Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE of the advantages of handwriting?A. Handwriting can impress people well and build up one’s self-confidence.B. The writer’s thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.C. Handwriting contains the writer's emotion.D. Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.69．The underlined expression “taking stock in”(Paragraph 4) probably means_______.A. getting bored withB. getting curious aboutC. becoming crazy aboutD. getting dependent on70．We can infer from the passage that_______.A. more and more students will give up writing on a computerB. more and more students will pay attention to handwritingC. writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one dayD. the typing article better expresses one’s emotion and quality第四部分：书面表达（共两节，满分50分）第一节：完成句子（共10小题，每小题2分，满分20分）71．Our master teacher is easygoing, ____________ I have learned how to get along with others.

(that/which) he gave短文写作：When I was in primary school, I got into an argument with a boy named Tom in my class. I was convinced that I was right and he was wrong but he held the opposite view. So my teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson. First, she brought both of us up to front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. Next, she asked us what color the object was. I replied, “white, of course!” But Tom argued, “Black, obviously!” Surprised and doubtful, I even thought Tom said it deliberately. Finally, my teacher asked us to change our places. Only then did I realize it was an object with two different colored sides. Both of us were right.My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: you must put your self in others’ shoes and look at the situation through their eyes in order to truly understand their view.听力原稿Text 1W: I’m going to apply for a scholarship when I finish senior high school.

Text 10When young people get their first real jobs, they may face a lot of new, confusing situations. They may find that everything is different from the way things were at school. It is also possible that they will feel uncomfortable in both professional and social situations. Eventually, they realize that university classes can’t be the only preparation for all of the different situations that arise in the working world.Perhaps the best way to learn how to behave in the working world is to identify a worker you admire and observe his behavior. In doing so, you will be able to see what it is that you admire in this person. For example, you will observe how he acts in a crisis. Perhaps even more importantly, you will be able to see what his approach to everyday situations is.While you are observing your colleague, you should be asking yourself whether his behavior is like yours and how you can learn from his responses to a variety of situations. By watching and learning from a model, you will probably begin to identify and adopt good working habits.。
