Yet I did not know the American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court.After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me to find a good doctor, it was onlyfair that I should pay him.But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report only contained ten lines, and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to fire him.

To recycle is to take rubbish and make it into something new. Recycling is good for our planet because it makes junk into something that we can use again. Recycling also helps to clean up the litter that makes our streets look dirty.All kinds of things can be recycled. The most common materials like glass, plastic, paper, metals, cloth are all recyclable. Sometimes these products are broken down to make the same kinds of products(产品). An example of this type of recycling is using paper to make more paper. Garbage can also be broken down to make completely new items as well!Some items, like glass, can be recycled forever! We can use glass items, then break them down and use them again and again. Aluminum(铝) cans are one of the most successful recycled metals. They can be recycled again and again and nearly 60% of all cans have been recycled.The average family of four can produce nearly 2,000 pounds of garbage each year. As time goes on, we have fewer places to put all of this garbage in. Recycling is one way to limit（限制）the amount of garbage we need to put into the land.The next time you toss a can or bottle into the garbage can, look to see if there is a recycling triangle on the label. It is the international sign for recycling. It means that the item you are going to throw in the dustbin could be recycled.第 - 3 - 页( ) 36. To recycle is to ______.A.

Which is the best title of the passage?A. The recycling triangleB. Some new ways to limit plasticC. The three Rs----reduce, reuse and recycleD. The importance of protecting the environment(D)Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, and horseback riding.When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown.” I had no idea how to find Linda. Over the ye ars, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman —Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but J still wrote to her.She called as soon as s he got my letter. “Mrs. Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.” Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is fill ed. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!( ) 41.

lives．He was born in London，England in 1955．When he was a small boy，Tim was interested in playing with electrical things．He studied science at Oxford University．He made his first computer from an old television at the age of 21．Tim started working on early computers．At that time，they were much bigger than now．He worked in England then Switzerland．Tim was really interested in two things，computers and how the brain works．How could the brain connect so many facts so quickly？He had to work with people all over the world．They shared information about computers．It was hard to manage all the information．He answered the same questions again and again．took a lot of time．It was even difficult for computers in the same office in Switzerland to share information．Tim also forgot things easily．Could a computer work like a brain？Could it"talk"to other computers？There was an Internet already but it was difficult to use．In 1989，Tim Berners﹣Lee invented the World Wide Web（WWW） all by himself．This had a special language that helped computers talk to each other on the Internet．When people wanted to share information with others，they used the World Wide Web．The Internet grew quickly

speaking on the phone，but they can hear you．So，the way you speak is especially important．In fact，researchers have calculated that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice； and only 20% is from the words you use．Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone．1．Facial ExpressionsYour facial expression can influence your voice．For example，if you smile，your voice will sound warm and friendly，just the opposite，if you have an angry look on your face，it can make you sound unpleasant．2．VolumeIf you speak too loudly，you could sound angry．And if you speak too softly，it'll be difficult to hear you．So，speak loudly enough to be heard clearly，but not so loud that you're shouting．3．PaceThe pace of your voice is how quickly you speak．And this can show how you feel．For example，an angry person might speak faster than normal．Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly．Try speaking a little more slowly than normal．This will make you sound confident，and it'll make it easier for the other person to understand you．4．GesturesGesturing can influence the tone of your voice．When you gesture，you bring more air into the lungs，which can make your voice sound warmer．Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need．The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you're doing，so you can gesture as wildly as you like!5．MovementIf you're feeling nervous，stand up and move around．It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident．6．Pauses （停顿）Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down．This will make you sound more confident and in control．Also，if you pause after giving some new information，it'll give the other person time to understand it．At the same time，listen to how the other person uses pauses．They could tell you something about the speaker's feeling．For example，when a speaker is really angry，he might use pauses and says，"I…am…so…angry…"41．How much of telephone communication is from the words you use？A.20%．B.40%．C.60%．D.80%．42．What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone？A．Gesture wildly．B．Move around．C．Raise their voices．D．Make facial expressions．43．How can pauses help people talk on the phone？A．The speaker can show he is friendly．B．The speaker can tell more information．C．The listener will feel confident and in control．D．The listener will have time to understand the words．44．What is the passage mainly about？A．How to control the speed of your speech．B．Different good ways of talking on the phone．C．Reasons of making gestures while talking．D．How to improve communication among friends．45．What is the writer's opinion about telephone talk？A．Your voice on the phone will show what you're feeling．B．Using too many pauses while talking will annoy others．C．Speaking loudly makes it easier for others to understand you．D．The words you use are more important than the way you speak．第二节阅读填空阅读短文及文后A～E选项，选出可以填入46～50各题空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．46．In the middle of my home country there are very large places．They are hot and dry land called deserts．（46） Families live a long way from

And I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model.Being a model for a living is not easy. In fact, a famous person like me has a lot of problems that you couldn't see. I can't eat what I like, even though I'm very hungry. Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model.Besides, I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun, in a swimming suit in the cold air. And practising walking nicely every day is tiring for me.You might say I made much money from modeling. But my dear niece(侄女),you have to know that money is nothing, knowledge is everything. School is important and everyone should go to school for a certain period of time. The longer they stay at school, the better they will be. Very often, I hope I can give up my job and continue my studies at school. But it is very difficult for me to go back to school again. I'm too old to go back to school now.You are a pretty young girl with a bright future. You only have one year to finish your studies in high school. A year is really short. Please do consider my words carefully before you decide. Of course, there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness.LoveEmma（1）What was Emma surprised about?A．Alice wanted to keep thin.B．Alice decided to do nothing.C．Alice ate too much and became a heavy girl.D．Alice decided not to finish her studies at school.（2）Emma can't go back to school again, because .A．she is tired of being a studentB．she wants to make money from modelingC．she is so old that she has missed the best time in schoolD．she has done a good job and makes a lot of money as a model（3）How long does Alice still have to study in high school?A．One year.B．Two years.C．Three years.D．The longer, the better.（4）Emma only cares about .A．Alice's beauty B．Alice's happinessC．Alice's age D．Alice's swimming suit（5）From the letter we know that .A．Emma is a famous modelB．Emma likes being a model for a livingC．Alice will go on her studies in high schoolD．Emma can eat what she likes when she is very hungry4．阅读理解Everybody knows the story of Titanic and the iceberg hit it on the night of April 14, 1912.

If you want to find out a little bit more about the mysteries (神秘) of this huge ship, please read the following contents.The ultimate (极限的) ship of dreamsWhen it first set sail, the Royal Mail Steamer Titanic was the largest moving object created by man and a true wonder of engineering.

How could this happen? People used to think that hard work is the only way to success. But now they understand that smart work can make them success, too.Hard workers don't mind working for long hours, while smart workers always think of several different answers to these questions. "Why should I suffer this?" "Isn't there a better way to do this?" Thanks to these people, we can use computers instead of the abacus now. Progress in every field is the direct result of "try to find a better way" by smart workers.There was a large soap factory in Japan. Once it received an unusual letter from someone who complained that there was no soap in the soapbox he bought.How could empty soapbox go out of the factory? The engineers checked the producing and packing. The producing was fine, but in about one in ten thousand cases, the packing machines let an empty soapbox go. There was no need to spend a lot of money repairing the machine for such a small problem. The engineersoon worked out a solution. He put a large X-ray(X 射线) machine and two large computers to find out the empty soapbox. After teaching the workers how to use it, he sat down in his seat, exhausted(精疲力尽)."Sir, we could have solved the problems in a much simpler and cheaper way." a worker said. "Really? How?""We can put a huge fan(电扇) near the packing machine. The wind coming from the fan will blow away the empty boxes, leaving the other boxes with soap. There would be no need for an X-ray machine, two computers, and operating by workers."See, this is smart work. In order to succeed, we should not only work hard like the engineers, but also think smart like the workers.（1）Some students spend much less time on schoolwork but do much better in exams .A．because of their hard workB．because of different educationC．because they try to find a better wayD．because they study for much longer time（2）Someone wrote to the soap factory and complained that .A．the soapbox he bought was empty B．their soap was too expensiveC．the soap he bought was terrible D．their service was very bad（3）The soap factory could only near the packing machine to solve the problems in a much simpler and cheaper way.A．set some soapboxes B．set an X-ray machineC．put two large computers D．put a huge fan（4）The underlined phrase "blow away" means .A．停止B．吹走C．挑出D．逃脱（5）The article mainly tells us that we should in order to succeed.A．think of different answers to our questionsB．spend much less time on our schoolworkC．work hard like the engineers and think smart like the workersD．spend enough money repairing the machine for any problem6．阅读理解[来Good news!

In the letter, he recalled his life of basketball.Kobe Bryant was born with basketball already in his blood. His dad was a former NBA star. When Kobe was six years old, his dad started playing basketball in Europe, so his family moved to Italy. The family stayed there for seven years. While living in Italy, Kobe started playing basketball.The family moved back to the United States when Kobe was 13 and he started playing highschool basketball. When Kobe finished high school, he thought he was already good enough to play in the NBA. Although he didn’t go to college, Kobe was a quick learner on the courts of the NBA. He played in the NBA All-Star Game for the first time in 2019 and by 2019, Kobe had developed into one of the best basketball players. Kobe and Shaquille O'Neal teamed up to lead the LA Lakers to three NBA Championship Titles from 2019 to 2019.In 2019, Kobe was caught by the police. In 2019, the case against Kobe was dropped. That year, O'Neal was traded to the Heat.

To recycle is to take rubbish and make it into something new. Recycling is good for our planet because it makes junk into something that we can use again. Recycling also helps to clean up the litter that makes our streets look dirty.All kinds of things can be recycled. The most common materials like glass, plastic, paper,第 - 1 - 页metals, cloth are all recyclable. Sometimes these products are broken down to make the same kinds of products(产品). An example of this type of recycling is using paper to make more paper. Garbage can also be broken down to make completely new items as well!Some items, like glass, can be recycled forever! We can use glass items, then break them down and use them again and again. Aluminum(铝) cans are one of the most successful recycled metals. They can be recycled again and again and nearly 60% of all cans have been recycled.The average family of four can produce nearly 2,000 pounds of garbage each year. As time goes on, we have fewer places to put all of this garbage in. Recycling is one way to limit（限制）the amount of garbage we need to put into the land.The next time you toss a can or bottle into the garbage can, look to see if there is a recycling triangle on the label. It is the international sign for recycling. It means that the item you are going to throw in the dustbin could be recycled.( ) 36. To recycle is to ______.A. Clean up the dirty things on the streetB.

We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, and horseback riding.When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown.” I had no idea how to find Linda. Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman —Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but J still wrote to her.She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs. Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.” Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives.

Years ago, I celebrated my 40th birthday with friends in a two-floor restaurant. Many arrived earlier and waited outside the restaurant. As I was on the roadside, a homeless man came near to me and 16 money. I let him know I didn’t have any 17 with me.

She gave me a giant squeeze （拥抱）. "Why areyou in college at such a young，innocent （幼稚的）age？" I asked.She jokingly replied，"I'm here to meet a rich husband，get married，have a couple of children，and then retire and travel.""No，seriously？" I asked.I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age."I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!" she told me.After class we walked to the Student Union building and shared a chocolate milkshake.We became instant friends.Every day of the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop.I was always attracted listening to this "time machine" as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.Over the course of the year，Rose became a campus icon （校园偶像）and she easily made friends wherever she went.She loved to dress up and enjoyed the attention from other students.She was living it up.At the end of the term，we invited Rose to speak at a student gathering.I'll never forget what she taught us.

"But growing up requires finding opportunities in change.Have no regrets.The elderly usually don't have regrets for what we did，but rather for things we did not do. "She concluded her speech by courageously singing The Rose.She challenged each of us to study the lyrics （歌词）and live them out in our daily life.At the year's end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years.We'd always keep her in mind because it is the wonderful woman who taught us by example that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be. 30．Why did Rose go to college according to the passage？A．To share her wisdom and experience.B．To find out the secret of living longer.C．To make her college dream come true.D．To get married to a wealthy husband.31．The meaning of the underlined phrase "living it up" probably means____.A．enjoying life B．growing olderC．working hard D．losing herself32．Which of the correct order of the following events？a.Rose graduated from college.b.Rose gave an encouraging speech.c.Rose and the writer became friends.d.Rose introduced herself to the writer.e.Rose became popular among students.f.Rose greeted the writer with a big hug.A．f-e-b-c B．f-c-a-b C．d-b-e-a D．d-c-b-a33．What lesson can we learn from Rose's story？A．Being generous to people can gain respect from them.B．Growing up is easy while growing older needs efforts.C．Doing what we dream of leads to no regrets in the future.D．Never to stop studying makes people stay young forever.阅读理解Schools and universities can set up full-time or part-time positions of sports coaches.
