He hit himself in the eye with one of his father's sharp tools, and became blind. His name was Louis Braille, and he was only four years old.He was a clever little boy, and he soon learned to “see〞 without his eyes. He touched things, or smelled them, or tasted them. His family described things to him. Although he couldn’t see people’s faces, he learned to recognize their voices. After his seventh birthday, Louis went to the little school in the village. But there weren’t any books for him. His classmates read his lessons to him and his sisters helped him with his homework. He learned his lessons well, but he couldn’t learn to read or write.In 1819, the village priest (牧师) told Louis Braille's story to the director of a famous school for blind boys. At this school, boys learned math, grammar, geography, history, and music. And they learned to read!Louis went to the school in Paris in February, 1819. He loved his classes and received high grades. He learned to play the piano and to knit (编织) hats and sweaters. And he learned to read — with his fingers!The raised-print letters in the books at school stood up from the surface of the paper. Louis could feel them with his fingers. He was able to recognize some of them easily, but some of them were difficult. The letters had to be very large, and sometimes there were only a few letters on a page. The books were huge and heavy. And they were expensive. There were only fourteen books in the school library! Louis read the three or four books for his class again and again. He tried to think of a better way to make books for blind people. He experimented with new alphabets. After about three years, Louis invented a system of raised dots. The other students thought Louis's system was wonderful. They were able to read it easily, and they learned to write, too.Today, there are thousands of Braille books for blind people. Louis Braille was only fifteen years old when he invented his wonderful system!61. Without his eyes, he could also “see〞 by _________ .A. touching thingsB. smelling or tasting thingsC. trying to recognize people's voicesD. all the above ways62. He went to _________ in February, 1819.A. a famous school for blind boys in ParisB. a music school for blind peopleC. a private school for blind peopleD. a school for blind people far away from Paris63. Louis Braille became famous because he invented ____ .A. the English alphabetB. a system of raised dots to make books for blind peopleC. books for blind people to learn mathsD. grammar books for blind people64. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. His father’s carelessness made Louis Braille blindB. With the help of priest, Louis Braille went to the school in Paris in 1819C. Louis Braille is the only one who reads with fingers in the school.D. It took him about 15 years to invent a system of raised dots65. The main idea of this passage is that ____.A. Louis was a good student at the school in ParisB. he learned to “see〞 with the help of booksC. he invented a system of raised dots to make books easier for blind people to readD. there are thousands of Braille books for blind peopleBDiet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet… We are surrounded by the word “diet〞 everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically (心理) and physically.Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption(消费) of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale(秤) instead. All we have to do is to swallow(吞咽) or recognize the word “diet〞 in food labels.On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients(营养成分). Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological harm that comes from using them .68. In Paragraph 3, “gain comes without pain〞 probably means ______.A. losing weight is effortlessB. it costs a lot to lose weightC. diet products bring no painD. diet products are free from calories69. Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such products ______.A. are over-consumedB. lack basic nutrientsC. are short of chemicalsD. provide too much energy70. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. diet products: a good choice for losing weightB. diet products and basic nutrientsC. the diet zone: an attractive placeD. the diet zone: a dangerous placeCLet children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time: if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his langua ge like other people’s. In the same way, children learn to do all th e other things they learn to do without being taught--- to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle --- compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone(更不用说) correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.If it is a matter of right answer, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine(常规的) work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer. Let’s end all this nonsense of grades, exams and marks. Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn: how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible(合情理的) to them, with our help as school teachers if they ask for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one’s life is nonsense(无意义的) in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours. Anxiousparents and teachers say, “But suppose they fail to learn something essential(根本的), something they will need to get on in the world?〞Don’t worry! If it is essential, they will go out into the world and learnt it.71. What does the writer think is the best way for children to think?A. By listening to their parents’ instructions.B. By asking a great many questions.C. By making mistakes and having them corrected.D. By copying what other people do.72. What does the writer think teachers should NOT do?A. Give children correct answers.B. Point out children’smistakes to them.C. Allow children to mark their own work.D. Encourage children to copyone another.73. According to the passage, learning to speak and learning to ride a bike are _____.A. the most important skills.B. the basic skills children should masterC. almost the same as learning other skillsD. much different from learning other skills.74. The writer is afraid that children will grow up into adults who are ______.A. too selfishB. too independentC. dependent and unable to use basic skillsD. able to think for themselves75. The passage makes us believe_______.A. while children learn to do something, they usually make the necessary changesB. Children won’t correct their mistakes until teachers point them outC. It is necessary for teachers to correct children’s papers and homeworkD. Children will learn better if they depend on their teachers and parentsDFor years I wanted a flower garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together. But then we had Matthew. And Marvin. And the twins, Alisa and Alan. And then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.Money was tight, as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I'd have to say, "Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees, you know."Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own.I started thinking again about having a garden.I wasn't sure, though. I mean, gardens do cost money, and after all these years I was used to living on a pretty lean no-frills budget.Then, one spring morning, On Mother’s Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I realized that cars were tooting their horns (按喇叭) as they drove by. I looked out of the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow (垂柳), because I saw things blowing around on all itsbranches. Then I put my glasses on - and I couldn't believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard!I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, taped all over that tree. Think of all the garden flowers I could buy with one hundred dollars! There was also a note attached: "IOU eight hours of digging time. Love, Marvin."Marvin kept his promise, too. He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen foot bed for me. And my other children bought me tools (工具), ornaments (装饰物), a trellis (棚架), a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.That was three years ago. My garden's now very pretty, just like what I wanted. When I go out and weed or tend my flowers, I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they're right there with me.I live up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where winters are long and cold, and summers are way too short. But every year now, when winter sets in, I look out my window and think of the flowers I'll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes—every time.I'm still not sure that money grows on trees. But I know love does!76.The writer stopped thinking about having a flower garden because__ ___.A. she was too busyB.her children were off on their ownC. she was too oldD.her children had finished school77. The underlined word “no - frills〞 in the fourth paragraphs is similar in meaning to_____.A．painful B．tight C．looseD．helpful78. The “IOU〞 on the note is short for ___ .A. I Love YouB. I Belong to YouC. I Owe YouD. I Offer You79.The underlined part "Do you see a money tree in the yard? Money doesn’t grow on trees,"actually means______.A. We have many money treesB. We have enough money tobuy itC. We can’t afford to buy itD. We have muchmoney on the tree80.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passag e?A. The writer put one hundred dollar bills on the tree to decorate it.B.The writer was wearing her glasses when she saw the weeping willow.C.The children bought their mother a new garden and some gardening books.D. The flowers in the garden make the writer feel that her children are with her.五单词拼写(共10小题，每题1分, 总分值10分)81. He a___________ to me for what he had done the other day and asked me toforgive him.82.

He stands over the bed where his three-day-old son is lying and begins to speak to him.“My son, I have dreamt of you for many, many years. I had your name picked out even before you were born because I knew that I wanted you. Every time I thought of you I would have a smile on my face. Gabriel. You always gave me joy.“I really hope we have a great relationship, where you can talk to me about anything and not be embarrassed. Most of the time it will seem like I am too old to understand, but I’m sure you will see that, as I did with my father, my advice is some of the best you will get.“I am sorry for the misunderstandings (误会) we will have, but you will understand I spent my whole life waiting for you. You are my son, so I am not going to sit back and watch you hurt yourself. You are very important to me. ”The man stops and looks at his son. Then he begins to sob (呜咽).“Sorry, my dear, I’m crying because something bad happened. I am seriously ill. I will leave you soon.” The man gives a weak laugh. “This is the first time in many years I have been brought to tears.” The man kisses the baby who is sleeping so soundly and w hispers, “I will love you forever.”1.

Every four years, many countries send their best sportsmen to compete for the highest honour in sport. As many as 6，000 people take part in over 20 sports. For the winners, there are gold medals and glory. But there is honour, too, for all who compete, win or lose. That is in the spirit of the Olympics—to take part is what matters.The Olympic Games always start in a bright colour and action. The teams of all the nations parade in the opening ceremony and march round the track. The custom is for the Greek team to march in first, for it was in Greece that the Olympics began. The team of the country where the Games are being held—the host country—marches in last.The runner with the Olympic torch (火炬) then enters the stadium and lights the flame. A sportsman from the host country takes the Olympic oath (宣誓) on behalf of all the competitors. The judges and officials also take an oath. After the sportsmen march out of the stadium, the host country puts on a wonderful display.The competitions begin the next day. There are usually more than twenty sports in the Games. The rule is that there must be at least fifteen. The main events are in track and field，but there are a few days before these sports start. Each day the competitors take part in different sports，like riding，shooting，swimming，and cross －country running. Points are gained for each event. Medals are awarded for the individual winners and for national teams.More and more women are taking part in the Games. They first competed in 1900, in tennis and golf. Women's swimming events were introduced in 1912.But itwas not until 1928 that there were any track and field events for women. Now they compete in all but half a dozen of the sports. In horse riding, shooting, and boat racing, they may compete in the same events as men.4．Why is there honour for the losers as well as for the winners?A．Because losers and winners should be equally treated.B．Because failure is the mother of success.C．Because losers need encouragement.D．Because what really matters is to take part in the Olympic Games.5．Which of the following is a long－established practice in the opening ceremony?A．Runners enter the stadium with torches.B．Each team puts on a wonderful display.C．The Greek team marches in first.D．Sportsmen and sportswomen wear magnificent clothes.6．Who takes the Olympic oath?A．A judge from a foreign country.B．A sportsman from the host country.C．An officer from the host country.D．A Greek sportsman.7．When did women start taking part in the Olympic Games?A．In 1912. B．In 1900. C．In 1928. D．In 1924.CLaptop computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a $10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e-mail to "speak"with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees—anywhere at all!Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop use in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers.In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff use computers. The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, " Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we're giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything."8. The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to _______.A. work at homeB. access the InternetC. use for their schoolworkD. connect them to libraries9. Why is the word "speak" in the second paragraph in quotation marks(引号)?A. None of the above reasons is correct.B. They use the computer language.C. Laptops have speakers.D. They don't really talk.10. Which of the following is true about Westlake College?A. All teachers use computers.B. It is an old college in America.C. 1500 students have laptops.D. Students there can do everything.11. A window on the world in the last paragraph means that students can _______.A. get information from around the worldB. travel around the worldC. attend lectures on information technologyD. have free laptopsDMany animal and plant species have become extinct and many more are in critical danger. Finding ways to protect the earth's wildlife and conserve the natural world they inhabit (居住) is now more important than ever.DodoThe Dodo is a classic example of how human caused damage to the earth's biology. The flightless Dodo was native to the Island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. It lived off fruit fallen from the island's trees and lived unthreatened until humans arrived in 1505. The easily controlled bird became a source of food for sailors and was attacked by animals introduced to the island by humans such as pigs, monkeys and rats. The population of Dodos rapidly decreased and the last one was killed in 1681.RhinosThe Rhino (犀牛) horn is a highly prized item for Asian medicine. This has led to the animal being hunted in its natural habitat. Once widespread in Africa and Eurasia, most Rhinos now live in protected natural parks and reserves (保护区). Their numbers have rapidly decreased in the last 50 years, and the animals remain under constant threat from poachers(偷猎者).The Giant PandaThe future of the World Wildlife Fund's symbol is far from certain. As few as1,000 remain in the wild. The Chinese government has set up 33 pandareserves to protect these beautiful animals and made poaching them punishable with 20 years in prison. However, the panda's distinct black and white patched coat fetches a high price on the black market and determined poachers still pose (造成) one of the most serious threats to the animals continued existence.WhalesThe International Whaling Commission is fighting to ensure the survival of thewhale species. Despite the fact that one-third the world'soceans have been declared whale sanctuaries (保护区),7 out of 13 whale species remain endangered. Hunted for their rich supply of oil, their numbers have decreased to just 300. Collisions with ships, poisonous pollution and being caught in fishing nets are other major causes of whale deaths.TigersThe last 100 years has seen a 95% reduction in the numbers of remaining tigers to between 5,000 and 7,000 and the Bali, Javan, and Caspian tigers are already extinct. The South China tiger is precariously close to disappearing, with only 20 to 30 still alive. Like the Rhino horn, tigers' bones and organs are sought after for traditional Chinese medicines. These items are traded illegally along with tiger skins.12. Which group of the following animals has already died out according to the text?A. The Dodo and the Bali, Javan, and Caspian tigers.B. The Rhino, Whale and the South China tiger.C. The Rhino, Panda, Whale and Tiger.D. The Dodo, Rhino and Giant Panda.13. ________can serve as a cure for certain diseases.A. The Dodo's delicious meatB. The panda's black and white patched coatC. The whale's rich oilD. The Rhino horn and tigers' bones and organs14. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The number of South China tigers has reached crisis point.B. The whale is the representing mark for the World Wildlife Fund.C. People hunt for the endangered animals for high profit.D. Many animals are threatened with extinction as a result of human activity.15. Which of the following is mentioned in all the descriptions of those wild animals?A. The way of their life.B. Why they are hunted.C. The reason for their extinction or being in danger.D. Punishment for hunting wild animals.EMy mother is a diligent and kind woman. She is very busy from morning till night.

The music was so great that many people stopped to put some money into the hat of the young man.The next day, the young artist came to the same place, and put his hat on the ground gracefully. Different from the day before, he took out a large piece of paper and laid it under his hat. Then he began to play the vio-lin. It sounded more pleasant than ever.Soon he was surrounded with people who were at-tracted by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to claim (认领) it soon.”After about half an hour, a middle-aged man rushed through the crowd to the violinist and said, “Yes, it’s you. I knew that you were an honest man and would certainly come here.”The young violinist asked calmly, “Are you Mr George Sang?”The man nodded. The violinist asked, “Did you lose something?”“It’s a lottery ticket,”said the man. The violinist took out a lottery ticket on which George Sang’s name was seen. “Is it?”he asked. George nodded and took the lottery ticket and kissed it, then danced with the violinist.The violinist was a student at an arts college and had planned to attend advanced studies in Vienna. Later his classmate asked the violinist, “At that time you needed money to pay the tuition and you had to play the violin in the railway station every day to make money. Why didn’t you keep the lottery ticket for yourself?”The violinist said, “Although I don’t have much money, I live happily. But if I lose honesty I won’t be happy forever.”Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us.56. What did the young artist do at the railway station onFriday?A. He played the violin to make some money.B. He waited for the train to Vienna.C. He came to buy a train ticket to Vienna.D.

The artist didn’t take the lottery ticket for himself because he ____.A. chose to be honestB. didn’t need the moneyC. thought the lottery was worth nothingD. was afraid of blame if he kept it for himself60.

How to Choose DestinationsDThe smallest animal with a backbone（脊椎）known to science, a fish from the carp family, has been discovered in the peat swamps （沼泽）of Indonesia. Mature（成熟的）females of the fish species （种类）Paedocypris reach just 7.9mm in length.The species was discovered in the highly acidic (酸性的) peat swamps of the Indonesian island of Sumatra by a team led by Ralf Britz, a zoologist at the Natural History Museum in London.“This is one of the strangest fish that I’ve seen in my whole career,”Dr Britz said. “It’s tiny, and it lives in acid.I hope that we’ll have time to find out more about them before their habitat disappears completely.”The species lives in dark tea-colored swamp waters, which are 100 times more acidic than rainwater. Although these swamps were once thought to be inhabited by very few animals, recent research has shown that they are home to a highly different range of species that occur nowhere else.The peat swamps were damaged by forest fires in 1997, and are also threatened by agriculture. The scientists behind the discovery said that several populations of Paedocypris had already been lost.“Many of the peat swamps we surveyed （调查）throughout South-East Asia no longer exist,”Dr Britz said. “Populations of all the miniature（微型的）fish of peat swamps have decreased or disappeared.”Details of the discovery are published today in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society of London, Series B.68. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. The Strangest FishB. Acidic Peat SwampsC. Strange SpeciesD. The Smallest Backbone Animal69. Where does the smallest backbone animal live?A. It lives in highly acidic rainwater.B. The species lives in the acidic waters of dark tea-coloured swamps.C. It was put in the Natural History Museum in London.D. Its habitat disappears completely.70. Dr Britz’s words imply____.A. the habitat will be more after a period of timeB. many peat swamps that they surveyed have already survivedC. he wants to find out more about them before their habitat disappearsD. he wants to have a further research71. According to the passage, the forest fires in 1997 have led to the fact that ____.A. many places where these animals lived have been damagedB. the population of the species has increasedC. there are many animals in the acidic peat swamps todayD. agriculture doesn’t affect the living space of these animalsEAmericans are more socially isolated than they were 20 years ago, and nearly a quarter of people said they had “zero”close friends with whom to discuss personal matters. More than 50 percent named two or fewer confidants (密友), most often immediate family members, the researchers said.“This is a big social change, and it shows something that’s not good for our society，”said Duke University Professor Lynn Smith. She said that it showed there was a surprising drop in the number of close friends people had since 1985. At that time, Americans most commonly said they had three close friends whom they had known for a long time, saw often, and with whom they shared a number of interests. They were almost likely to name four or five friends and the relationships often sprang from their neighborhoods or communities (社区).Ties to a close network of friends create a social safety net that is good for society, and for the individual. People were not asked why they had fewer intimate (亲密的) ties, but Smith said that part of the causes could be that Americans are working more, marrying later, having fewer children, and commuting (往返上班) longer distances. “It’s one thing to know someone and exchange e-mails with him. It’s another thing to say, ‘Will you give me a ride out of town with all of my possessions and pets?’and ‘Can I stay with you for a couple or three months?’”Smith said.“Worrying about social isolation is not a matter of nostalgia (怀旧之情) for a warm and comfortable past. Real things are strongly connected with that，”added Harvard University Professor Robert Putnam, author of Bowling Alone, a book on the decline of American communities. He suggested flexible work schedules would allow Americans to tend both personal and professional lives.72. What’s the passage mainly talking about?A. American social isolation.B. Americans have “zero”close friends.C. Ties to a close network of friends are good for society.D. Flexible work schedules change Americans’lifestyle.73. From the second paragraph we can learn that people tend to ____.A. be closer than beforeB. be less close than beforeC. have more friends than beforeD. have more family members than before74. Which of the following is the possible cause of American social isolation?A. They work more.B. They don’t marry.C. They have more children.D. They spend too much time on relaxation.75. According to Professor Robert, ____.A. there could be four possible causes for American social isolationB. worrying about social isolation is not a matter of nostalgiaC. flexible work schedules don’t affect (影响) Americans’way of lifeD. American social isolation is only a small social problem第四部分：写作第一节：短文改错High school students preferred to travel around after the university entrance exam. After the exam and before the result was released, students hoped to relaxing by traveling. According the online tourism website Mango, more customer came to consult about the routes in late June and early July. Many families chose Beidaihe, Dalian, Chengde but even Hong Kong. In most travel agencies, after the Labor Day vacation and before the summer vacation, the month of June used to have little tourists. Nowadays some families changed their minds. “The travel trend occurred after the university entrance exam, because of many urban families can afford travel fees and there are more chances of studying in university for students. We choose to visit Disneyland in Hong Kong rather than anxious wait for the results at home.”said a mother who plans to take her son to Hong Kong for a holiday.第二节:书面表达在我国，随着经济的发展和人民生活水平的显著提高，旅游度假成为许多人的首选。
