I agreed and made my way there one evening.When I got there, I sat with my friend and talked about how he ended up there. As we talked, another man came up, lighting up his cigarette as he sat down. He had dark, leather skin, and looked like he had endured the sun, the rain, and the wind for long, long time. I couldn’t tell how old he was, but i was sure that he was younger than he looked.Through a bit of conversation, i found out that he had been on the streets for many, many years. Without my asking, he started describing life as a homeless man. How he got food; hoe he stayed warm; how he got money. And he told me something that caught my attention.He said, “You want to know how i keep my stuff safe at night?”“Sure, “ I replied.“I put it up in the trees.”“Why is it safe in the trees?” I asked.“The homeless are always looking for treasure on the ground--- coins, something someone’s dropped, half-smoked cigarettes. I know if I put my stuff in the trees, they’ll never find it because they never look up. Never. “Profound words from an unexpected place. And his message is for all of us.We all have our particular search. We’re looking for treasure on this earth. But what we are REALL Y looking for is right there above us. There’s really nothing we need on the ground.In fact, it’s surrounding us.21.What did the author go to Nashville for?A.To help his friend.B.To build a halfway house.C.To visit a stranger.D.To pick up a homeless man.22.The underlined word “endured” in Paragraph 2 means _________ .A.EnjoyedB.sharedC.SufferedD.expected23.The homeless man hid his things in the trees because________A.nobody could climb up the treesB.there was a hole in the treeC.The leaves of the trees were thickD.the homeless never looked up24.From what the homeless man said, the author learned thatA.We should look up for treasure in futureB.What we’re looking for is just by our sideC.There’s really nothing we need on the groundD.It is wrong to look for treasure on the groundBIf you move to a new school, you’ll have to worry whether or not you’ll make friends. Here are some simple suggestions which help you make new friends a lot easier.◇Try speaking to the people standing next to you in class. As they’re close by, it makes sense to communicate with them first.◇Have the courage to speak to everyone in your class. You will probably stay with that class through your years at the new school, so it helps if you get on with them.◇If you don’t have many friends in your class, try and make new friends in your sub ject lessons. You can also talk with them at lunchtime and after school.◇Join a lunchtime or after-school club. You’ll get to meet kids of all years that way.◇Ask your teacher to pair you with another pupil.◇Use your celebrity status(名人地位)! Since you’re the new person, you’ll have gained celebrity status, which you can use for a couple of weeks. Talk to people, remember to smile and always be open and friendly. Listen carefully to what others have to say so as to make them feel important.As you g row older, it’s natural to make new friends and sometimes that means you grow apart from your old friends. So try and make time for all your friends. Why not introduce your different sets of friends so you can all go to the cinema or go bowling together?But what if a friendship group is pushing you out? If this is happening to you, try and ask someone you’re friendly with what is happening. If the whole group is leaving you out, try to findnew people to spend time with at lunchtime.25.

Day 5 and Day 6DSome of my friends are making big decisions in their life: Which universities should they apply to? I also notice that many high school students in China are thinking of studying at universities abroad. Unluckily, from what I’ve seen, th e information given by some websites and other media about studying abroad is very limited and sometimes even wrong.There was once a Chinese girl who hoped that she could go to Columbia University in the US beca use she wanted to major in journalism. However, they have no journalism program at the undergr aduate level! What’s more,in both Canada and the US,it’snot suggested that students throw themselves into journalism right after high school.Schoolsay that students should take in more knowledge about the world and writing before entering tha t field.The University of Waterloo, a Canadian university famous for its engineering program, is another example.Theemphasis (重视)of engineering in this school may go beyond your expectations. According to our teachers, thisuniversity spent millions of dollars building a library just for engineering students. The school’s computer science, mathematics and accounting are also great programs for students.But, to be honest, according to my friends who have visited this university, the campus and the fo od are not very nice. Maybe this is because the school stresses its academic( 学术)strengths too much, thereby paying little attentionto personal comforts.Now you see, choosing a university is really not that easy. We need to do good research and cons ult as many people as possible before making a decision.32.Who can major in journalism program in Columbia University?A. Chinese girls.B. High school studentsC. Graduates.D. Undergraduates.33.From Paragraphs 3 and 4 we can learn in the University of Waterloo _______.A.the engineering program is as famous as computer scienceB.engineering students are the most intelligentC.the library for engineering students is very goodD.the campus is very small and dirty34.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.The information provided by some websites is always useful.B.In Canada, students can major in journalism right after high school.C.The University of Waterloo stresses the academic strengths and personal comforts.D.Doing good research is necessary before making a decision.35.What’s the best title for the passage?A.How to study at universities abroad.B.Choosing a university is not easy.C.A Chinese girl and Columbia University.D.Academic strengths of the University of Waterloo.第二节（共5题，10分）Does this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, and you are speaking quite fluently. _ _71 First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. The most important thing is to listen as often as possible. _ 72 The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from . The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station.Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated （受阻）by limited understanding. __ 73__Here is some of t he advice I give my students:●Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything.●Stay relaxed when you do not understand, and try listening to the material for more times.● Do not translate everything into your nati ve language.● __74___ Don’t concentrate on details before you have understood the main ideas.● Listen to something you enjoy.I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didn’t und erstand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. This method usually resulted in confusion. 75 Firstly, translating creates a barrier between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that even if I didn’t pay much attention I could usually understand what the speaker had said.A. What should you do?B. Listen for the general idea of the conversation.C. But you can’t follow a native English speaker at all!D. So, what you need to do is to find listening resources.E. However, after several weeks, I got used to the new environment in Germany.F. But listening is a problem for most of the beginners!G. Then, after the first six months, I discovered two extremely important facts.第三部分完形填空（共20题，满分30分）While I was out for breakfast with my 23-year-old son, he told me about an experience he had earlier in the week.
