One evening, after a long day of hard work, the farmer returned home with the donkeys and began to tie them to the stakes(桩). When he finished nine donkeys, he found that the tenth rope was gone.What now? He could not let the last donkey run around all night. It would surely run away. Suddenly, he saw that, under a tree, there was a monk(和尚). The farmer ran to the monk and asked for voice. The monk said, “The only thing you have to do to the tenth donkey is make the movements(动作) you would have made with a rope in your hands. Pretend (假装) to tie the donkey. That’s all.”The farmer returned to the tenth donkey, pretended to fasten(拴紧) a rope around its neck and then to tie the rope to a stake. He then entered his little house, half trusting the monk’s advice, half worried that his donk ey would run away in the middle of the night.When he went outside very early the next morning, all the donkeys were still standing nicely next to their stakes, even the tenth one. The farmer untied the donkeys and wanted to take them to the field. But to his surprise, donkey number ten refused to move an inch. The farmer pulled and shouted but the animal just didn’t move.Suddenly, the farmer thought of what he had done to the donkey the night before. With a great “ah ha”, he returned to donkey number ten,and just after a simple movement the donkey happily walked with him to the field.24. What was the farmer’s problem when he tied the donkey?A. He needed one more rope.B. The tenth stake was gone.C. The tenth donkey ran away.D. He had left a rope in the field.25. Following the monk’s advice, what did the farmer do?A.

What did the farmer find in the next morning?A. All the donkeys were gone.B. The tenth donkey didn’t run away.C. Donkey number ten was running around.D. The donkeys went to the field by themselves.27. What does the underlined part“ a simple movement”refer to?A. Taking away the tenth stake.B. Pretending to untie the donkey.C. Pretending to cut the tenth rope.D. Trying the tenth donkey with a real rope.CFirst Lady Michelle Obama is a big fan of volunteering. V olunteering means working for free to help someone else. Mrs. Obama says volunteering is very important. “It should be part of everyone’s life, ” she says.Many teens agree. They say that helping others feels great and makes a difference. These days, more teens volunteer than work for pay. Teens clean up parks, walk dogs at animal shelters , visit the elderly and more.Some cities ---- including Seatle, Chicago, and Washingtong,D.C. ----require high school students to volunteer. Students must volunteer in order to graduate. Thestudent volunteers learn new skills and help their communities .Many parents are in favor of the idea ---- they say volunteering helps teens build job skills. But most teens don’t want to be forced to volunteer. They say they are busy. And they say voluntee ring is only fun if it’s a choice.Read both sides of the debate and decide.YESV olunteering can help teens get into college or get a job.Many cities and towns need help. V olunteers can help keep important programs going.Not all teens will volunteer if it isn’t required. Schools should repuire students to do all they can to get ready for adult life.NOMost teens are already very busy with classes, homework, jobs and sports.

In Italy, when you order a coffee in a cafe or bar(酒吧), you are served with a tiny, bitter espresso. This is “normal (正常的) coffee” for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. If you want more than one sip(小口) of coffee in Italy, lungo is a good choice. In addition, while takeaway coffee is quite popular among Brits, it is not very common at all in Italy. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy -includes a coffee and a pastry (酥皮糕点). Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry with chocolate is the perfect way to start the day.Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy, such as espresso or macchiato (an espresso with a drop of milk), is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee every day without breaking the bank.32.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?A.By time.B. By space.C. By comparisonD.By example.33.Which coffee will you get in Italy if you order one without special instructions?A. Espresso.B. Lungo.C. Cappuccino.D. Macchiato.34.What can we learn about the coffee culture in Italy?A.Takeaway coffee is very popular among Italians.B.Italians are very often seen drinking huge coffees.C.Few Italians take short breaks from work for coffee.D.Coffees are often served along with pastries during breakfasts.35.What does the author think of Italian coffee?A.She loves its bitter taste.B.It is too expensive for her.C.The cup it is served in is too small.D.It is a good choice for breakfast.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

She had betterfor more information.A. make a phone call to KarenB. join the Hiking ClubC. send an e-mail to Singles’ c lubD. call Tony at 3338651BI got into the teaching profession purely by choice. I was then in 9th grade when my mathematics teacher asked me to take on a class for a few students to whom the subject seemed difficult. And believe me, I enjoyed the entire teaching process. I never knew teaching would be so interesting. I loved my freshmen and was delighted to teach my so-called students who came up with lots of good questions.After my post-graduation, I worked as a software developer with a public sector(部门) in Bangalore for a few years. But I realized that no job could provide me with the satisfaction that I experienced while teaching and training. I always wanted to connect with a wider group of people. In fact, I felt it was a timely realization for me to choose the teaching profession. I applied to a few colleges, and finally I was chosen as a lecturer, and I had to lecture graduate and post-graduate students in a college.On the first day, I was nervous thinking that I had to teach the senior classes. But now I can say that giving lectures was one of the best experiences of my life. I was a Computer Science and Information Technology lecturer, but I tried to help my students with subjects that were not within my domain(范围). It was a new feeling to me every morning before I went to the classes. I used to feel energized and excited thinking that the class would be lit up with bright faces to greet me, “Good morning, Madam.”To me each day was a new beginning, with new feelings, new experiences andnew questions. I loved to explore their young minds and read their inquisitive (询问的) faces when a particular topic seemed hard. It was extremely challenging to motivate them to participate, think critically, question and also respect others’ points of view. Though few things never seemed easy, it was extremely exciting to make them believe that they really can. That is the reason I love to teach.4. From the first paragraph we know that____.A. the author's math teacher was often away from workB. the author became a real teacher in 9th gradeC. the author joined the teaching profession because she had toD. a great many questions were put forward by the author's “students”5. When the author worked as a software developer, she might feel______.A. interestedB. dissatisfiedC. nervousD. proud6. What can we learn about the author?A. She liked the students most who often challenged her to read.B. She was too nervous to speak a word in her first class.C. New feelings, experiences and questions made her feel each day new.D. She was unwilling to solve her students' questions out of her domain.7. What would be the best title for this text?A. Why I Love to TeachB. What My Life Is LikeC. How I Was Chosen as a LecturerD. My First Lesson as a TeacherCMore Americans expect to work past their 65th birthdays and never retire, says a recent study.The Associated Press with the NORC Center for Public Affairs Research surveyed 1,075 people, who were aged 50 and older. One-fourth of them said they never plan to retire. Among low-income earners in that age group this is even more true than for high-income earners.In America, the age of 65 is the traditional age to retire.

It’s one of the most popular topics currently talked about by people in cities, together with,“How many vegetables did you steal today?” or, “It’s harvest time for your peaches,” and,“I bought you a new car today.”Listening to a conversation like this, you do not have to feel strange. These people don’t really have their own farms or so much money that they can casually (随意地) buy someone else a car.They are just playing games on Social Networking Sites(SNS) like. Can you imagine millions of people in China spending lots of time on SNS playing games and talking to friends? This is especially true of white-collar workers in cities. Take for example — the number of current members has already hit 38 million.However, the large number of people using SNS highlights another problem.

And as far as we know, a farmland of this kind exists in Shanghai where it has reached its first base.After playing the “Happy Farm” g ame on , would you like to put yourself among the real world while smelling the fragrances (芳香) of the countryside?
