Friendships get more precious as we get older, and when we reached our forties, we decided we needed to put in a little more work to keep our friendship strong, healthy and growing. We pick out one Saturday a month and promise to do something together. Sometimes we have a long lunch out. Other times we go to see a movie or shopping. But at least once a quarter, we have an adventure.In some adventures we drove to our favorite places. In other adventures we spent a night in a place sharing a festival like Christmas or sometimes we just drove, stopping wherever we wanted. We have headed out of the state to Tennessee. We have tried out new restaurants and new shops.One of our adventures took us to a very small town in south Georgia. It was one of those watermelon or cotton or peanut festivals, and we enjoyed buying the handmade gifts and eating the terrific foods. The most impressive was a parade, with local school marching bands and service groups. We joined the parade and began smiling and waving! Everyone smiled and waved back! Of course, their smiling faces turned confused and puzzled as we passed in our car. “Who are these women?” they must have wondered. Finally, we turned a corner and a serious-looking policeman directed us back to the highway. We really had a great day!Fun is always on the menu, whether it’s a weekend trip or a couple of hours over lunch. We talk and have influence on each other’s life. We share our struggles and our happiness. We ask for and receive advice. And we laugh!Don’t keep promising yourself that “someday soon” you will get together with them. Do it now. Pick up your phone and make a plan for th is weekend. You need it. Your friend needs it. You’ll be a happier, healthier person for it!36. What can we infer from the first paragraph?A. The writer is nearly forty years old now.B. They usually went out together on Sunday.C. They had at least a date every month.D. Both of the writer and Jessie have no job.37. Which of the following activities is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Driving to favorite places.B. Sharing festivals in a place.C. Going shopping together.D. Surfing the net together.38.

How does the writer feel when traveling together with her friend?A. Tired.B. Busy.C. Confused.D. Happy.40. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. An adventure in south GeorgiaB. Keeping our friendship strong and healthyC. Having lunch out with a friendD. Getting together once in a quarterBA sudden screaming voice of a lady made everybody within a distance on the road stop and look back at her. It was a frightful moment when we realized why she had screamed. Her child was about to get hit by a car. After the situation came in control, a few of us went to the lady and asked her what happened. We got to know that her child had seen his uncle standing on the other side of the road and out of excitement ran towards him on the busy road.Well, this was just an example of how accidents take place due to children and how the chances of these children meeting with accidents are more than the adults because they are not familiar with the road safety rules. The recent survey on traffic accidents shows that the road accidents happened to children from the age of 10 to 12 has increased whereas there was a decline in the accident ration of the children from the age of 13 and above.One of the important things that both parents and teachers should teach them is the importance of road safety. They should be told about the consequences of what happens when a person does not follow traffic rules. If the children are taught to follow all the traffic rules then the chances of road accidents become less.In most of the schools, road safety rules are taught to the students by showing them pictures. The students should also be taught not to rush while boarding or getting down from the school bus. One of the important steps of road safety rules is not to talk while crossing the road.We think there is no need to learn traffic rules because we all have common sense, but what it seems to be so easy is not that easy actually. There is a long list of such instances where almost one person dies every day in a road accident. With a conscious mind we can easily avoid such accidents and teach children the same for their safety.41. Why does the author mention the accident in the first paragraph?A. To show that the child was naughty.B. To explain how children were injured.C. To introduce the topic of this text.D. To warn people to walk carefully.42. More children under 12 met with the road accidents probably because .A. they liked playing in the streetB. they usually broke traffic rulesC. they were too young to walkD. they were not protected well43. We can learn from Paragraph 3 that .A. students should be taught to obey the traffic rulesB. parents should take responsibility for their children’s accidentsC. teachers owe a duty of care to all their studentsD. parents should teach their children how to walk carefully44. Which of the following can help children keep safe on the road?a. Getting off the school bus as soon as possible.b. Talking while walking on the road.c. Crossing the roads at the zebra crossing properly.d. Boarding the school bus in turnA. a, cB. b, cC. a, bD. c, d45. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Learning traffic rules is important for the childrenB. More traffic accidents happen on the road every dayC. Parents and teachers should keep the children healthyD. What seems to be easy is usually not that easy at allCA 77-year-old former traffic policeman, who had cared for his Alzheimer’s-stricken wife for ten years, walked into the hospital where she was being treated and shot her three times.Vitangelo Bini then sat down at the foot of her bed to call th e police. When they arrived he told them, “I couldn’t stand to see her suffer any more.”Mr Bini, from Prato, in Tuscany, was in custody (监护) last night after being charged with homicide (杀人罪). His wife, Mara Tani, 82, had suffered from an advanced state of Alzheimer’s for about ten years and was admitted to the Misericordia e Dolce hospital in Prato last week when she lost consciousness.Mr Bini, who had been her full-time carer, had visited her several times a day, hospital staff told the police. On Saturday, however, witnesses said that he entered the room that she shared with five other women, hugged her and then put a towel over her face before shooting her in the head. A few seconds later he fired another shot to the head and one to the heart, Fabio Di Chierri, the vice-director of Prato police station, said.Mr Di Chierri said that Mr Bini sat down and tried to call the police on his mobile phone. He could not get through, perhaps because so many others in the neighborhood were doing the same.Police officers happened to be on the same floor and arrived immediately. Mr Bini did not put up any resistance and tried to explain his actions, although he appeared and sounded dazed (恍惚的) and confused, the officers said. The couple’s children, a son, 43, and a daughter, 44, were stunned by the news and did not see their father when they went to the police station.46. What is Alzheimer’s judging from the passage?A. The family name of Mr Bini’s wife.B. The name of the hospital.C. The name of a kind of disease.D. A kind of medical organization.47. The underlined word “stunned” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “”.A. disappointedB. shockedC. excitedD. depressed48. We can learn from the passage that .A. the couple has three childrenB. the couple’s children never looked after their motherC. Mr Bini was tired of caring for his wifeD. Mara Tani must have suffered a lot49. What’s the correct order of the news?a. Mr Bini had visited her several times a day.b. Mr Bini was charged and left in custody.c. Mr Bini shot his wife to death.d. Mara Tani was admitted to the Misericordia e Dolce hospital.e. Mr Bini sat down and tried to call the policeA. d, b, a, c, eB. b, d, c, a, eC. d, a, c, e, bD. c, b, a, d, e50. The passage is written mainly to .A. entertain readersB. attract readersC. inform readersD. have pity on the old ladyDMoving to a new neighborhood, town, state, or even country can be a pretty scary experience. All you know is that things wil l be different and chances are you won’t know the kids at your new school.Leaving old friends and familiar places behind can be difficult. However, as you begin the moving process, keep in mind that saying goodbye to your old house, school, and friends does not mean that you have to forget them or that your farewell is permanent! If you’re moving to a new state or even a different country and won’t see your friends for a long time, don’t despair. Make sure to ask everyone for their address so you can write them letters. Also, thanks to the Internet, it is very easy to stay in touch through e-mail or instant messaging technologies. With your parent’s permission, you can even create a blog or web page to record all of your new experiences. Your old friends will love seeing what you are busy with.Many schools have an orientation program where a local student shows a new students around for their first week. This can help you find your way around the school and make new friends faster.While moving is tough on kids of any age, high school counselor Karen Turner says moves can be particularly difficult for teens. “I think moving during adolescents is an extremely stressful experience, especially if you’re into your early junior high or early senior high year. Students tend to have established a very strong peer network during that period in their lives. Often this has more influence on them even than their families in some cases, and when they’re torn from that there’s often resentment(怨气).” However, Turner adds that while moving isn’t easy, there are things that your parents and the school can do to help you cope with the change.51. Who are the intended readers of the passage?A. Education experts.B. School teachers.C. Parents.D. Students.52. Which of the following is mainly suggested in Paragraph 2?A. Staying in contact with old friends.B. Expressing yourself when it’s possible.C. Forming good habits at school.D. Keeping positive about your new school.53. According to the passage, an orientation program .A. helps local students in many waysB. is organized by new studentsC. offers help to new studentsD. focuses on all the students at school54. According to the passage, Karen Turner may agree that .A. many parents seem to care little about their childrenB. teens can easily be attached to their friendsC. parents should communicate with the school teachersD. teens tend to behave rudely in a new school55. If this passage continues, what would the author further discuss?A. What a new school is like.B. Why parents move with their children.C. How parents and the school can help the children.D. How children can express their anxieties.第三部分写作(共两节，满分35分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的词数要求）。

These young people are 27 to change the rules and don‟t have to 28 that their parents will disapprove.

Having moved 12 times in the last 10 years, I know moving has gained the reputation of being hard and stressful... However, this move wasn‟t.The moment I made the decision to make this move, I also made the decision to let it be easy. This was a choice, and one I had to continue to make every single day. I chose to give away certain things rather than dealing with selling them. I chose to allow people to help me when it was offered and very much needed…In many ways, this was still a stressful move. It‟s never easy to move. But I made the choice to make this move easy, and it was far, far easier than it would have been. And how can you make the choice to have life be easy, stress-free and joyful?If my higher value at the moment had been finances, it would have made more sense for me to sell furniture, hold a garage sale and do the cleaning myself. While the move was expensive enough to begin with, I knew that what I valued most was having this be an easy and stress-free experience. You have to decide what is a priority for you. Is it joy? Lack of stress? Ease? Fun? Whatever the value, make the choice to have that be your priority.You can‟t control everything. There will be moments where you‟re less than joyful, stressed out and frustrated. That‟s okay. In those moments, recognize that the only thing that‟s 100 perc ent in our control at all times is our reaction to the situation at hand. How can you create a more positive experience? This might mean taking a bath, or treating yourself to your favorite restaurant.Take action now!What‟s the area or situation in your life where you can make the choice to be happier and more positive? What is the value or feeling that you want to create? How will you choose to feel and experience that right now?36. After experiencing many times of moving, the author ______.A. finally settled down in the beautiful DenverB. noticed the move is enjoyable though hardC. decided not to move again any moreD. knew how to make the move easy37. For the author, this move was relatively easier than before because of ______.A. the extra help from other peopleB. certain things being given awayC. the use of more convenient means of transportD. the decision of letting it be easy38. Which one of the following can be used to summarize the fourth paragraph in the passage?A. Brainstorm as many ways as possible to simplify your move.B. Consider it common to have the stressful situation.C. Decide what you value most in the given situation.D. Make full use of what you have for the sake of finances.39. When you are stressed out and frustrated, you should ______.A. control the situationB. react positivelyC. treat yourself wellD. return to your priority40. What is the purpose of the author in writing the passage?A. To show the readers the art of choosing.B. To introduce his experience and feelings about the move.C. To suggest several ways to make the move easier.D. To explain the move was generally hard and stressful.BHow important is it to offer our love, especially to those closest to us, with no strings attached? Ernest Hemingway wrote a moving short story called The Capital of the World. In it he tells about a Spanish father who wants to reconcile (和解) with his son who has run away to Madrid. In order to locate the boy he puts this ad in the El Liberal ne wspaper: “Paco, meet me at the Hotel Montana at noon on Tuesday. All is forgiven. Love, Papa.”Paco is a common name in Spain, and when the father goes to the square he finds 800 young men named Paco waiting for their fathers.What drew them to the hotel? As Hemingway tells it, it was the words “All is forgiven”. I notice that the father did not say, “All WILL BE forgiven IF you do this or that.” Not, “All WILL BE forgiven WHEN you do such and such.” He simply says, “All is forgiven.” No strings attached.An unknown author beautifully describes the possibilities of no-strings-attached love in this heartfelt story titled The Rock.“As she grew older her teenage daughter became increasingly rebellious (叛逆的). It culminated (达到极点) late one night when the police arrested her daughter for drunk driving. Mom had to go to the police station to pick her up.They didn‟t speak until the next afternoon.Mom broke the tension by giving her a small gift—a wrapped box.Her daughter opened it and found a little rock inside.She rolled her eyes and said, …Cute, Mom, what‟s this for?‟…Read the card,‟ Mom said.Her daughter took the card out of the envelope and read it. Tears started to trickle down her cheeks. She got up and lovingly hugged her mom as the card fell to the floor.On the card were these words: …This rock is more than 200,000,000 years old. That is how long it will take before I give up on you.‟”41. What drew so many young people to the hotel in Ernest Hemingway‟s story?A. The name of Paco.B. The p oor father‟s poor conditions.C. The father‟s unconditional forgiveness.D. The son‟s bad attitude towards his father.42. Why did the mother bring a rock to her daughter?A. To comfort her daughter.B. To express her love for her daughter.C. To change her daughter into a good girl.D. To make her daughter realize her mistakes.43. The words on the card show that the mother .A. is ashamed of her daughterB. doesn‟t want to hurt her daughterC. will never give up on her daughterD. understands her daughter completely44. How is the text mainly organized?A. By time.B. By space.C. By making comparisons.D. By telling stories.45. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A. A father‟s loveB. No strings attachedC. The importance of forgivenessD. How to deal with rebellious children?CThe amount of road deaths in the world is at a very high level. It strikes me as completely unnecessary and totally avoidable. A recent report claimed that over 350 people a day are killed because of road traffic related issues—and that is in Europe alone. This leads to every single person being exposed to potential injury or death every time they go out on the road.Every single driver or road user, including walkers and cyclists, has to make the effort to obey and stick to the road rules. Even a non-road user has the duty to educate those who would cross a road to get aware of the road rules.The speed at which one chooses to travel is also a main contributor of road disasters. It has been recorded by an international organization that the mere reduction of speed by 3km per hour would save over 5,000 lives and prevent over 120,000 crashes per year—once again just in Europe alone. These are just figures that could have been avoi ded and don‟t include the cost factors related to collisions (碰撞), medical expenses and recovery from injuries.There are some basic steps that everyone can take immediately to reduce this unnecessary road carnage, and these include: correct use of vehicles‟ lights and turning signals, monitoring of proper speeds an d safe following distances, obeying the rules of the road, consideration of fellow road users, self improvement by learning better driving techniques, educating your children or friends on appropriate and considerate road use and motor vehicle roadworthiness (性能).The above represent just a few ideas of where one can contribute to safer roads, thereby ensuring the safety of all. If each and every one of us at least attempts to integrate (使……结合) some of these ideas and practices, surely we can make a difference, to not only our lives, but also all those innocent road users too.46. Road accidents resulted in the deaths of about people in Europe every week.A. 350B. 2,450C. 5,000D. 120,00047. What can a non-road user contribute to safer roads?A. Saying no to drunken drinking.B. Learning better driving techniques.C. Obeying the rules of the road.D. Educating people around to obey traffic laws.48. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?A. Traffic laws in Europe are out of date.B. Drivers in Europe need to improve their driving skills.C. Drivers always have the main responsibilities for road accidents.D. Speed limits are very important to decrease the road accidents.49. The underlined word in paragraph 4 is closest in m eaning to “”.A. ruleB. disasterC. userD. condition50. What does the author mainly want to tell us in this passage?A. It‟s a tough problem to reduce road disasters anywhere.B. More road accidents may happen in Europe.C. More lives can be saved if we all raise the awareness of traffic safety.D. We are all to blame for road accidents every year.DOn this day in 1889, DeWitt Wallace was born in St. Paul, Minnesota, to a minister and his wife. After high school, Wallace worked in a bank and began keeping an index-card (索引卡片) file of his favorite magazine articles. He later attended the University of California at Berkeley. While visiting friends in Oregon, he met his future wife, Lila Bell Acheson, also a child of a minister.After condensing (减缩) some government publications (出版物) into booklets, Wallace became convinced he could create a popular periodical (期刊) by condensing other readings, but his plan was interrupted by World War I. He joined the Army and was wounded. While recovering, he began to explore his idea, designing a sample issue and sending it to publishers, who rejected the idea all along.He proposed to Lila, and the pair married in 1922, in Pleasanton, New York, the future home of Reader’s Digest. They decided to start the magazine themselves. Working out of a basement in Manhattan, the couple published their first issue in February 1922, with an initial (最初的) run of 1,500 copies.By 1929, circulation (发行量) had reached 200,000 and was growing. In 1933, the magazine began publishing original articles, and the following year it began to condense books.The magazine continued growing rapidly and by the end of the 20th century it had the largest number than any other publication in the world, with more than 17 million readers in dozens of countries and some 20 languages. Its focus is not on news but more on cultural views because the editors think people now can get timely news from somewhere else. They hope this magazine can give readers something that is about special personal experiences. In different countries, this magazine provides a window to the world for the local readers. Some parts of the magazine are about the local customs and interests of the local readers. The other parts give the local readers information from all over the world.The Wallaces donated much of their wealth to philanthropic(博爱的) causes. On January 28, 1972, DeWitt Wallace was presented with the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Richard Nixon. Mr. Wallace was received into the Junior Achievement U.S. Business Hall of Fame in 1980.51. DeWitt Wallace realized his dream of publishing his magazine after .A. he got to know his future wifeB. he got marriedC. joined the armyD. he sent a sample issue to publishers52. Reader’s Digest focuses on the following topics except .A. information from all over the worldB. some special personal experiencesC. the timely newsD. customs and interests of the local readers53. We know from this passage that Reader‟s Digest .A. met its height of time in the 1980sB. used to be a family businessC. was interrupted by World War IID. celebrated its 100th anniversary in 201054. What does the underlined phrase “propose to” in paragraph 3 mean?A. It means: “to suggest it for people to think about”.B. It means: “to intend sb. to do something”.C. It means: “to suggest sth at a formal meeting and ask people to vote on it”.D. It means: “to ask sb. to marry you”.65. Which is the right order of events that happened in this passage?a. The magazine began publishing original articlesb. Various publishers rejected Wallace‟s ideac. Wallace got wounded in the ward. Wallace was presented with the Presidential Medal of Freedome.

ASports are the base of my life, next to my mother who raised me when my dadleft us. I have been into sports since I was six years old. I have known many coaches and heard hundreds of their tips, but they usually focused on drills to develop my skills and reach the next level of play.When I was in Senior Two, I met the new school basketball coach, Brian Pawloski. I thought I was certain to be selected for the school team since I had been in it the year before. I showed up to the tryouts (选拔赛) and put out about 90% effort since I thought I’d make it with no problem. That was a big mistake.Brian Pawloski is the hardest-working coach I have ever met. He didn’t expect 100% effort, he expected 200% effort. One example: he once made us do 40 suicide drills for the 40 lay-ups (投篮) we missed in a game. Some think this is crazy, but it isn’t. After this conditioning practice, as we were getting a cup of cold water to drink, I said, “Coach, that was the best practice I ever had.” I was completely sincere. This man was and is the person who influenced me most at my high school. He expects us to be excellent not just on the court but in the classroom. If I am not working on basketball, I am reading a book that he thinks will help us better understand life’s challenges, including Wooden, Coach, and The Screwtape Letters.In the first two years I slacked off, not putting forth my full potential. Now, unlike the coaches of my youth, this man was interested in how he did off the court. He always made sure I kept up with my studies and was able to be trusted. I can honestly say that no other coach has given me so much advice on how to succeed in basketball, but more importantly, in life. My school is lucky to have such a great person to teach, coach and influence their students. I will always remember my high-school basketball days as one of the hardest times I have ever worked in my life not only in basketball but in my growth as an individual.21. Different from other coaches, Coach Brian ________.A. trained the team to the edge of deathB. expected the team to do well in their studiesC. asked the team to do more reading than trainingD. concentrated on skill training22. The underlined phrase “slacked off” in the last paragraph probably means ________.A. made less effortB. paid no attentionC. showed no interestD. had less passion23. In the author’s eye, Coach Brian is ________.A. professional and seriousB. skilled and cruelC. hardworking and honestD. strict and helpfulBGallery Policiesfor Visitors to National Gallery of Art, Washington Visitors must present all carried For the safety of the artworks anditems for inspection upon entry.

I was pretty alarmed by that response. It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job. One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height. “They break your legs, put in special extending screws, and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it regrows. You can get at least 5 cm taller!”At that point, I was shocked. I am short. I can’t deny that, but I don’t think I would put myself through months of pain just to be a few centimeters taller. I don’t even bother to wear shoes with thick sole s, as I’m not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting “perfection”, and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality.No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm（标准）. Advertisements for slimming aids, beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers, further creating an idea that “perfection” is a requirement, and that it must be purchased, no matter what the cost. In my opinion, skills, rather than appearance, should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career.28. Many graduates today turn to cosmetic surgery to ________.A. become a modelB. get an advantage over others in job-huntingC. attract more admirersD. marry a better man/woman29. What was the author’s reaction towards the girl’s decision?A. Surprised.B. Happy.C. Angry.D. Excited.30. According to the passage, the author believes that ________.A. it’s right for graduates to ask for others to help them out in hunting for jobsB. media are to blame for misleading young people in their seeking for surgeryC. it is one’s appearance instead of skills that really matters in one’s careerD. everyone should pursue perfection, whatever the cost31. What does the author think of his height?A. He tries to increase his height through surgery.B. He always wears shoes with thick soles to hide the fact.C. He just accepts it as it is.D. He hates to be called a short man.DBELJLNG —Eating at a Beijing restaurant is usually an adventure for foreigners, and particularly when they get the chance to order ―chicken without sex life‖ or ―red burned lion head‖.Sometimes excited but mostly confused, embarrassed or even terrified, many foreigners have long complained about mistranslations of Chinese dishes. And their complaints are often valid, but such an experience at Beijing‘s restaurants will apparently soon be history.Foreign visitors will no longer, hopefully, be confused by oddly worded restaurant menus in the capital if the government‘s plan to correctly translate 3,000 Chinese dishes is a success and the translations are generally adopted.The municipal（市政）office of foreign affairs has published a book to recommend English translations of Chinese dishes, which aims to help restaurants avoid bizarre translations. It provides the names of main dishes of famous Chinese cuisines in plain English, ―an official with the city‘s Foreign Affairs office said .‖ Restaurants are encouraged to use the proposed translations, but it will not be compulsory .― It‘s the city‘s latest effort to bridge the culture gap for foreign travelers in China.―The book is a blessing to tourist guides like me.
