21．（6分）In recent years I have had two very good roles on television: Florence, the wisecracking maid on the series The Jeffersons, and Mary, the mother who holds things together on 227. But 17 years ago, in 1972 when I was just getting started in theater work, I thought I’d never make it as an actress. For that matter, I couldn’t even hold my life together or afford a home of my own.Back then I had about as much self-confidence as a chicken in a fox’s nest. I was recovering from surgery and had been off work for six months from my job as a United Airlines reservations agent. I’d had some bit parts in local theater groups, but those came and went, not leading to anything bigger.Worse, as a single mother with three youngsters, I had no place to live. My children were staying with their father while I recovered in an aunt’s apartment. Lying in bed, staring hopelessly at the wall, I didn’t know what to do or where to turn.Then one Sunday morning I aimlessly turned on the television set, and there were actor Robert Young and his wife talking about their faith. I sat right up in bed. They said, “ When one door closes, a better one opens,” Well, I wasn’t going to just sit staring at the closed one. So I got up and trudged(跋涉) on. Even if my shoes wore out, I decided, my faith wouldn’t.Later, when I began filling small parts in television productions, thatself-confidence showed. I’d always d one my best to play the role as I thought the director wanted, but now I found myself freer to interpret it, I was more natural, more me.1、What do the underlined words “ hold my life together” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A．Enjoy my life B．Support myselfC．Abandon my life D．Fight against my life2、How did the author feel when she worked in the local theater?A．Confident B．ExcitedC．Nervous D．Disappointed3、What can we learn about the author from paragraph 3?A．She lived in her own apartment B．She had to stay with her father C．She was confused about her future D．She was looked after by her kids4、What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?A．To share her understanding of faith with us B．To prove her success in the TV actingC．To show thanks to her respected aunt D．To tell how hard she brought up her children22．（8分）Roughly the size of a soda can, sitting on a bookshelf, a relatively harmless device(设备) may be turning friends away from your home. The elephant in your living room is your Internet-connected camera, a device people are increasingly using for peace of mind in their homes. But few stop to think about the effect these devices may have on house guests. Should you tell your friends, for instance, that they’re being recorded while you all watch the big game together?"It’s certainly new territory, especially as home security cameras become easier to fix," says Lizzie Post, president of the Emily Post Institute, America’s distinguished manners advisors. " I think it will be very interesting to see what manners appear in terms of whether you tell people you have a camera or not, and whether guests have a right to ask that it be turned off, if it’s not a security issue. "Post wants to make clear that she’s not talking about legal rights, but r ather personal preference.When it comes to security cameras, Post says it’s a host’s responsibility to make sure guests feel comfortable within their home. If the host casually acknowledges that there is a camera in the room by telling a story about it, that may be enough to provide an opening for a guest to say if they are uncomfortable.However, if a contractor(合约工)is working in your home, you don’t need to tell them that there are cameras watching. Then again, the camera can also work in contractors’ favor. "If anything does go wrong while they’re in the house, they don’t want to be blamed for it," she says. "In fact, the camera could be the thing that proves that they didn’t steal the $20, or knock the vase off the table.1、The visitors are concerned that the security camera may .A．threaten their health B．spoil their peace of mindC．disturb their privacy D．affect their preference2、What is a host’s responsibility concerning the security camera?A．Indicating its position. B．Making their guests feel at ease C．Turning it oil in time. D．Having a casual talk with guests.3、How can the home security camera benefit contractors working in your home? A．It can prevent the accidents happening. B．It can prove their innocence.C．It can record their working progress. D．It can make their work more enjoyable.4、What’s the author’s attitude towards the security camera?A．Negative. B．Pessimistic. C．Favorable. D．Objective 23．（8分）Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some degree our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some degree something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be intelligent. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth. Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live inclose contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.1、The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him . A．at birth B．through educationC．both at birth and through education D．through environment of one’s family 2、If a child is born with high intelligence, he can .A．surely become a geniusB．still become a genius if he isn’t given good educationC．reach his intelligence limits through his own effortsD．probably reach his intelligence limits in rich and varied surroundings3、The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separatelyshows .A．the importance of their intelligence B．the role of environment on intelligence C．the importance of their positions D．the part that birth plays4、The best title of the passage can be .A．On Intelligence B．On GeniusC．Dependence on Environment D．Effect of Education on Intelligence 24．（8分）At times my mom has been uncomfortable seeing some quality in me. For example, when I was 12, I went to Puerto Rico all by myself to stay with my grandmother for the summer. My mom was extremely nervous about it. She kept telling me how things were different in Puerto Rico, to always put on sunscreen, not to wander away from my grandmother, and other warnings. She helped me pack and did not leave the airport until she saw my plane take off.But despite her worries, she let me go on my own. As I moved into my teens, she continued to give me space to grow and learn, even when it might have been difficult for her. When I reached my senior year, I decided to move away for college. Once again I found that I differed from my peers: while many of them wanted to stay close to home, I couldn’t wait to be out in the world on my own. While my mom may not have been happy at the thought of my going away, she was supportive and excited for me.One big thing I realized during my senior year, as my mom granted me more freedom, was that she actually believes in me and trusts me. That means a lot. Most of my life, and especially when I was little, the main person I tried to impress in myschoolwork or other things was my mother. I knew she expected nothing but the best from me. Sometimes it was hard to live up to her standards: getting a single B on my report card would make me feel bad beca use I knew she wanted me to have all A’s.I know that her high standards have helped me stay focused on what’s important, like education, and made me who I am. I am thankful for her support and involvement in my life. Most of all I respect her. She is the strongest woman I know and that’s why I have turned out so strong and independent.1、What may “some quality” in Paragraph 1 actually refer to?A．“My” stubbornness.B．“My” independence.C．“My” misbehavior.D．“My” carelessness.2、What is the author’s attitude to his or her mother’s way of raising children? A．Appreciative. B．Critical.C．Opposed. D．Supportive.3、What can we infer about the mother?A．She always gets nervous easily. B．She often gets involved in “my” life. C．She used to be strict in “my” study.D．She would limit “me” too much4、What is the main idea of the text?A．A mother’s deep love.B．A child’s IndependenceC．A mother’s trust and support D．A child’s long way to growth.25．（10分）If you make a list of the world’s top ten most challenging jobs, chances are that being a teacher will not make the cut. But think about the discouraging task millions of educators face each day as they try to shape a group of oftenbad-tempered, wild kids into intelligent, well-rounded individuals. That surely has to be the toughest job in the world, especially given that there is no promotion or bonus awaiting them even if they are wildly successful!What if these all-important individuals that we often take for granted disappear from our lives? That was what Project E d and Participant Media’s Teach campaign asked filmmakers of all ages to imagine in their recently-held competition. Entitled “A World Without Teachers”, its purpose was to inspire more young people to become teachers. However, the 62 amazing video submissions also serve as a reminder of how horrible things would be if we didn’t have these selfless individuals guiding us through life. What was interesting is that even the youngest participants did not appear to behappy at the idea of not having anybody telling them what to do.High-school student Savannah Wakefield reflected if art as we know it today would have been different without teachers. Would Monet have discovered his talent for impressionism? Los Angeles-based Miles Horst, who won the 1000 USD prize for the best adult submission imagines a world where teachers are replaced by a “brain box” in his fun lively entry.Youth category winner Marina Barham’s video represents a fact we all know but often forget. Teachers don’t just teach, they inspire—something that no electronic device, no matter how smart, can do! So the next time you think your teacher is being “mean” for trying to channel you in the right direction, imagine a life without him/her. We havea feeling it will not appear as rosy!1、What is the text mainly about?A．The significance of teachers.B．The campaign to promote teachers’ status.C．A survey of people’s views about teachers.D．A competition to win the prize for the best teacher.2、From the passage we can learn that .A．teaching naughty kids is a very discouraging taskB．being a teacher is one of the most challenging jobs in the worldC．a successful teacher has the greatest chance to be promotedD．teachers have little influence on kids’ individual development3、What is the purpose of t he project “A World Without Teachers”?A．To attract kids to submit more videos of their teachers.B．To encourage more people to go into teaching career.C．To expect teachers to devote themselves to their jobs.D．To remind students to appreciate teachers’ h ard work.4、What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 suggest?A．Teaching is quite different from other jobs.B．The future of teachers’ work appears inspiring.C．A world without teachers will be unimaginable.D．Many people attach more importance to teaching.第三部分语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．26．（30分）An old grandpa as ordinary as Father Brown will never attract people's attention and interest in everyday life.
