Calls to the flower-shop were not helpful at all. After a while ,I stopped trying to discover the sender’s name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper.But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these imaginings. She’d ask me if there was someone for whom I had done special kindness. Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I’d delivered during the winter. As a girl, though, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy I had run into.One month before my graduation, my father died. I felt so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation dance, and I didn’t care if I had a new dress or not. But my mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable. In truth, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia—lovely, strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery .My mother died ten days after I was married. I was 22. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.56. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. A Childhood Dream.B. A Mother’s Love.C. A Graduation Party.D. A Special Birthday.57. The mother insisted that her daughter go to the graduation dance because _______.A. she could take care of things herselfB. she hoped she would find a boyfriendC. she wanted her to be happy and strongD. she thought education was most important58. Who was the sender of the flower?A. A boy the writer had run into.B. One of the writer’s neighbors.C. One of the writer’s classmates.D. The writer’s motherBHave you ever hear a saying, “Never judge a book by its cover.”? 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 st upid. With a pen and paper, he can express himself better than anybody else.Other people may fool you into overestimating their intelligence by putting up a good front. A student who listens attentively and takes notes in class is bound to 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 t o different situations. The more situations you see, the better your judgment is likely to be. So take your time. Don’t judge a book by its cover.59. 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 speechless60.

The writer of this passage wants to tell us not to______.A. judge a book by its coverB. make the mistake of thinking a young man stupidC. overestimate a student’s intelligenceD. judge a person’s intelligence by his appearanceCVisitors worry that London is an expensive city but there reallyare so many things to do for free in London from museums andgalleries to free music and walking tours.Art GalleriesTate Modern and Tate Britain are exceptional national artgalleries housing some of the finest artworks in the world. TateModern focuses on contemporary art while Tate Britain displaysBritish Art from the sixteenth century to the present day.MuseumsAll of London's major museums are free, but most offer some specialexhibitions for a fee. My favorite is the Museum of London whereyou can learn the history of London from Roman times to today. Other great major museums are the British Museum, the V&A, the Science Museum, and the Natural History Museum. Oh, and I love the Geffrye Museum. And the Horniman Museum. Now I can'tdecide which is the best!Many of London's major art galleries and museums are open in the eveningand often have special evening events. This can be a great way to relaxat the end of a busy day seeing the sights. The main London galleriesand museums are air-conditioned so it can be wonderful way to cool downin the height of summer in the city. Galleries and museums are not openlate every night so here is a handy list to help you plan your days andevenings.Royal ParksMany people say the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite spot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park asit offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park is enormous and includes the ever popular Diana Memorial Fountain and the Peter Pan Statue.There are often free talks and guided walks in the royal parks so do check the What's On section of the Royal Parks website.Changing of the GuardNo visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30am every day in the summer and every other day in the winter. Get there early and view the spectacle from outside the front gates.63.

It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are severe over time of coming home at night or punctuality(严守时间) for meals. In general, the controls represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child's own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality (道德). Also, parents should realize that "example is better than precept". If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach (说教), their children may grow confused when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents' principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.66. Eagerly watching the child's acquisition of new skills ___________.A. should be avoidedB. is universal among parentsC. sets up dangerous states of worry in the childD. will make the child lose interest in learning new things 67. In the process of children's learning new skills, parents ________. A. should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they read B. should expect a lot of the children C. should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their own. D. should create as many learning opportunities as possible. 68. The second paragraph mainly tells us that ___________. A. parents should be strict with their children B. parental controls reflect only the values of the community C. parental restrictions vary, and are not always for the benefit of the children alone D. it's parents' and society's duty to control the children 69. The word "precept" in Paragraph 3 probably means "___________". A. opinion B. punishment C. behavior D. instruction 70. In terms of moral matters, parents should _________. A. follow the rules themselves B. be aware of the huge difference between adults and children C. forbid their children to follow hook teachings D. always ensure the security of their children 第二节 （共5小题，满分10分） You should make thorough plans before you undertake a camping trip.
