My spirits 1 at the prospect of starting all over again.2 by strange classmates, I felt as though I were in a maze(迷宫) and felt3 for myself. There were some complex feelings in my mind. I was frightened, nervous and lonely.To make matters worse, I recalled my failure again and again, which put more pressure on me than I could bear. As a result, I was always feeling 4 during class.One of my teachers noticed my depression and one day he asked me to come to his office, where he told me about his 5 towards life. He said we might 6 from making mistakes, but it was important to shape ourselves into the people we 7 . All the growing pains and the embarrassing things we 8 are parts of the process. We never stop 9 , so learn from it and keep your spirits up! If you are optimistic, things you want may 10 to you! Warm feelings rushed through me. I 11 saw the sun shining again when I stepped out of his office.With the teacher’s help, I finally got over my depression. From then on, I no longer 12 my head but began smiling at my classmates.

So he decided to stay in the 20 room. He put some hay (干草) in a pen (围栏) 21 the sheep could eat it when they were 22 . The dog, who felt cold outside, lay on the 23 hay and soon went to sleep.At noon the sheep wanted to eat the hay. They were 24 afraid of the dog and 25 could get close to it. At last the 26 sheep came to the hay. Before he started to eat, the dog heard it and opened his eyes. He barked (吠) loudly to 27 him. The sheep ran away 28 . Looking at the unnatural (不近人情的) dog, the sheep began to talk 29 .“What a selfish (自私的) dog!” said one of the sheep. “He cannot eat the hay, and yet refuses to 30 those who can to eat!”16.A.raining B.snowing C.blowing D.shining 17.A.thick B.thin C.beautiful D.big18.A.play on B.live on C.climb up D.go to 19.A.cake B.grass C.fruit D.vegetables 20.A.cold B.cool C.hot D.warm21.A.in order to B.so as to C.so that D.in order 22.A.hungry B.sick C.full D.free 23.A.hard B.soft C.thin D.wet24.A.both B.either C.all D.neither 25.A.none B.neither C.any D.some 26.A.smallest B.youngest C.weakest D.strongest 27.A.meet B.greet C.warn D.receive 28.A.easily B.happily C.sadly D.quickly 29.A.angrily B.happily C.quietly D.politely 30.A.let B.ask C.forget D.allowIt was Mother’s Day and I was shopping at the local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson. As we were 31 , we realized that only minutes earlier an 32 woman had fallen over at the entrance and hit her head on the ground. 33 was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock. 34 , a lot of people stopped to help out.35 we were walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very 36 about what had happened to the elderly couple. He 37 to me, “Mum, it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone.” Seeing that there was a flower stall (摊位) in the front of the supermarket, he added, “Why shouldn’t we 38 the lady a flower? It will make her feel better.” I was 39 that he’d come up with this 40 idea. So we went over and told the flower seller what we wanted. “Just take it,” she replied. “I can’t take your money for such a wonderful 41 .”By now medical staff had arrived, and were 42 the injured woman. We gave the flower to the woman’s husband and I told him it was from my son. At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you very much.” He then turned to me, “You have a 43 son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”The man bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. 44 being badly hurt, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little 45 .31.A.leaving B.driving C.moving D.stopping 32.A.injured B.awkward C.honest D.elderly 33.A.Her husband B.My son C.The crowd D.The seller 34.A.Specifically B.Particularly C.Interestingly D.Fortunately 35.A.If B.Since C.While D.Unless 36.A.guilty B.curious C.angry D.worried 37.A.complained B.said C.lied D.responded 38.A.lend B.bring C.leave D.buy 39.A.amazed B.shocked C.puzzled D.concerned 40.A.wise B.sweet C.innocent D.crazy41.A.scene B.habit C.flower D.deed 42.A.checking with B.looking after C.operating on D.praying for 43.A.respectful B.cheerful C.successful D.wonderful 44.A.Out of B.Regardless of C.Thanks to D.As to 45.A.idea B.money C.smile D.comfortA video was breaking the Internet. In the video, a white truck was 46 on a highway, and people were trying to break the window. Some viewers began to assume that it was the scene of a(n) 47 , but the truth was quite different.The story all started on a Georgia interstate highway. While 48 a white truck, a woman called Juordin Carter noticed something wrong. The truck was going slowly on such a 49 highway, which was a dangerous situation. She looked over to the right and saw an older man 50 but he bent over. Actually he had passed out, leaving his vehicle 51 .Some other drivers also noticed the man. Rather than just 52 for the best, they began to 53 . Then they ran alongside the truck, shouting to get the driver’s attention. But it was clear that he wasn’t able to 54 , so they joined together and managed to stop the vehicle. Finding him 55 they had no choice but to break into the truck and get him out. 56 , it was easier said than done. From a stroller to a tire and even a hammer(锤子), nothing was breaking through until a man called Campbell took a shot at the back window. After that he kicked down the rest of the 57 , slid in and unlocked the door. As the 58 hurried to get to the scene, the drivers 59 with the sick man. Moments later, he received medical treatment and got saved.Juordin recorded the incident and shared the video online to show the 60 of the unknown drivers.

How did she sound? Terrible. But she didn’t quit. At twelve, she asked our parents if she could 61 a fulltime music school. They said no. Actually, everyone agreed that my sister lacked talent.I was better at my instrument. My teacher had told my parents that I had great 62 . So my parents found the best piano teacher in the area to 63 me. But the only time he was 64 was Saturday afternoons at 3 p. m.. Back then, I was 65 about the British TV show “The Avengers”, which was aired (播出) every Saturday at 3 p.m.. I let nothing take up my “The Avengers” hour. So I 66 this amazing opportunity. Today, I don’t even have a 67 in my house.My sister became an engineer, but she 68 stopped making music. When she was in her 40s, she switched her 69 . She went back to college, got a(n) 70 in music education, and became a music teacher. She starts kids off on their first instrument and gives them all the encouragement and support she never 71 .Recently, she and a pianist pal (伙伴) put on a recital (独奏会). A big crowd of friends and family 72 for her. As she played, I looked around at the 73 . Everyone was 74 enjoying the music. It occurred to me that I was the only person that remembered that 7-year-old kid making those perfectly awful sounds and knew how far she had come and she would keep going forever, despite 75 .Talent is important.

In my experience: It’s mostly about your motor vehicle.My student car — an old green Toyota bought for $500 — was the vehicle 79 his paternal affections. I bet it’s 80 been so. Back in ancient Rome, the father would test the son on the state of his carriage.Why can’t fathers just say “I love you” or “It’s great to see you”? The point is: You just have to 81 from the language that is Fatherlish. Listen closely enough and the phrase “I love you” can be 82 in the slightly lengthier “I could come around Saturday and 83 the seal (密封圈) around the basic of your toilet because I assume that thing is getting really smelly.The affectionate phrase “You made my life 84 from the moment you were born” may be rarely heard but there is the more 85 “I’ll hold the ladder while you get the leaves offthe roof.”When I was 17, I went on my first road trip in that Toyota. My father stood on the corner. “Highways are 86 ” he said “so don’t try overtaking anything faster than a horse and carriage. And take a break every two 87 . And every time you stop for gas, you really should 88 the oil.” At the time we thought his speech was pretty funny and would repeat “ horse and carriage” every time I sped up to overtake some other speeding vehicle.Dad’s long gone now. But after all these years, I 89 that had I owned a copy of the Fatherlish to English dictionary. I’d have understood that the speech my friend and I so 90 was simply dad’s attempt at affection.76.A.love B.car C.advice D.oil77.A.but B.so C.because D.when 78.A.amazing B.practical C.funny D.useless 79.A.mixed with B.tested with C.filled with D.put up with 80.A.hardly B.nearly C.never D.always 81.A.translate B.learn C.speak D.hear 82.A.copied B.heard C.seen D.said83.A.buy B.replace C.bring D.draw 84.A.busy B.excited C.better D.dull 85.A.common B.meaningful C.useful D.ordinary 86.A.fast B.expensive C.rare D.dangerous 87.A.days B.minutes C.hours D.weeks 88.A.buy B.use C.check D.need 89.A.remember B.recognize C.reflect D.realize 90.A.ignored B.forgot C.laughed D.ownedItalian shepherds are taking the lead in forest fire prevention, by leading their animals to eat the bush. Laws once 91 such practices are being changed, as rural communities begin taking a 92 in forest management.In thinner forested areas, larger animals feeding on plants were found to be 93 in reducing forest fire risk. Smaller animals like goats and sheep are 94 for areas that lacknatural predators (天敌). In Italy, the eating habits of smaller animals make them perfect for 95 woody bushes.Although a forest seems fascinating, 96 it’s no longer a natural ecosystem. When climate change regulations limited the shepherd’s 97 to work in woodlands, it was part of a continent-wide 98 to fight against deforestation. The effort worked well, with total forest 99 in Italy increasing by 75% since the 1960s. Red deer and other native animals have disappeared. Therefore, the 100 of sheep and goats meant that nothing prevented woody bushes from dominating the land, turning small fires into 101 ones.Meanwhile, shepherds decided to write letters asking the permission to graze in the woods again. They hoped to carry out a 102 project of rural areas, where Italy’s worst wildfire within 40 years 103 its way from the mountain tops to the sea. They hoped to bring in more shepherds to control the fires and 104 eco-tourism in the area. It makes sense that those most invested in the forests’ 105 would be worthwhile to save them, which goes for both the shepherds and the animals.91.A.monitoring B.advising C.banning D.introducing 92.A.role B.message C.chance D.break 93.A.decisive B.effective C.proper D.relevant 94.A.ready B.responsible C.hopeful D.suitable 95.A.cutting off B.helping out C.clearing away D.putting down 96.A.clearly B.gradually C.luckily D.actually 97.A.ability B.imagination C.desire D.risk 98.A.wish B.success C.victory D.effort 99.A.growth B.cover C.thickness D.quality 100.A.loss B.arrival C.choice D.disadvantage 101.A.uncomfortable B.unbelievable C.unforgettableD.uncontrollable102.A.production B.creation C.restoration D.competition 103.A.burned B.picked C.blocked D.forced 104.A.vary B.reduce C.encourage D.spread 105.A.exploration B.location C.health D.survivalOne day, many years ago, when I was working as a psychologist at a children’s institution in England, an adolescent boy showed up in the waiting room. I went out there where he was 106 up and down restlessly.Tim wore a black raincoat that was 107 all the way up to his neck. His face was pale, and he stared at his feet while wringing his hands nervously. He had 108 his father as a baby, and had lived with his mother and grandfather ever since. But the year before he turned13, his grandfather and mother were killed in a car accident. Now he was fourteen and in family care.I looked at Tim. He was very 109 and depressed. He refused to talk to me. The first two times we met, Tim only sat hunched up in the chair without saying a word. As he was about to leave after the second visit. I put my hand on his shoulder. He didn’t 110 back, but he didn’t look at me either.“Come back next week, if you like,” I said. I 111 a bit. Then I said, “I know it hurts.” He came, and I suggested we play chess. He nodded. After that we played chess every Wednesday afternoon, in 112 and without making any eye contact. It’s not easy for me to cheat in chess, but I admit that I made sure Tim won once or twice.Usually, he arrived earlier, took the chessboard and pieces and set them up before I even got a (n) 113 to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my 114 . But why did he never look at me?“Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his 115 with,” I thought.One afternoon. Tim took off his raincoat and put it on the back of the chair. While he was setting up the chess pieces, his face seemed more 116 and his motions more lively.Some months later, I sat staring at Tim’s head, while he was bent over the chessboard. I was thinking about how little we knew about the healing process. 117 he looked up at me. “It’s your 118 ,” he said.After that day, Tim started talking.Maybe I gave Tim something, but I learned a lot from him. He showed me how one-without any words-can 119 out to another person. All it 120 is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, a sympathetic nature, and an ear that listens.106.A.walking B.jumping C.sitting D.jogging107.A.put B.buttoned C.fixed D.tied 108.A.hated B.relied C.missed D.lost 109.A.sad B.mad C.calm D.fierce 110.A.fight B.come C.draw D.get 111.A.suspected B.hesitated C.worried D.doubted 112.A.satisfaction B.patience C.silence D.excitement 113.A.promise B.invitation C.order D.chance 114.A.attendance B.appearance C.company D.instruction 115.A.pain B.secret C.ideas D.relief 116.A.pale B.alive C.lovely D.serious 117.A.Suddenly B.Nervously C.Anyhow D.Magically 118.A.time B.turn C.fault D.way 119.A.figure B.leave C.bring D.reach 120.A.works B.gives C.takes D.makesThe sun was shining brightly over our heads and sweat (汗水) was pouring off our backs and faces. We stood still without 121 any noise, all hot and tired. But everyone kept standing as straight as trees.It was 122 most high schools give to new Senior One students — military training (军训). We spent four days in a closed environment. 123 we couldn’t go home at night and the training was 124 and difficult, our humorous young drillmaster (教官) with a funny accent (口音) was a real 125 of our days. We laughed 126 his jokes, sat in rows singing different songs and listened to him telling true stories about his life. He gave us the feeling that 127 and sweat were not the only things that we received from military training.After this journey, we were more 128 than we had imagined and we were much braver than we had expected. Girls who looked sick rested for a little while, then 129 came back to the team. Boys who were being punished 130 to the playground at once and began to run. Sweat flowed down our faces 131 we thought about how to shout 132 than other classes.Military training taught us perseverance (坚持不懈) and determination (决心). On the lastday of our training, the confidence could be 133 in our faces. We shouted so loud that our 134 could be heard across the heavens. With eyes like burning torches (火炬), we walked into the future.

I’ll never forget it.As soon as I rushed into the classroom, the bell rang. A young beautiful woman came in, but she was 137 , no smile on her face. “You are not permitted to interrupt me in the course of class unless...” She was speaking when I heard a 138 “Lily, Lily” from outside the door. My grandmother was standing there with a pair of socks in her hand. I didn’t realize I was bare feet until then. I wanted to 139 them, but I dared not do that. I shook my hand, 140 “Don’t wait here any longer. Leave quickly.” As I did so, I still 141 my eyes on my teacher. I really didn’t want her to take 142 of me, but she did. She went out to get the socks. When she gave them to me, she looked at me for a while. My face suddenly turned 143 and my heart beat faster. I began to put the socks on. Unfortunately I was so nervous that my 144 hands couldn’t get them onto my feet easily. Just then I heard my name called. I 145 from my seat quickly.“Can you 146 the numbers from one to one hundred?” the teacher asked. I nodded. To her surprise, I did very well. Finally she said, “Be 147 , please. Study hard.” I looked up at her to find a smile on her face.
