Several leading educational psychologists(心理学家) say this is one of the biggest mistakes that can cause great problems to children. However, if parents are a little gentler, the child mayact successfully—especially if the parents can support him. Michael Li is very lucky. He is very fond of music, and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and inviting a teacher to give him personal piano lessons. They even drive him 59 kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Although Michael’s mother knows very little about music, Michael’s father plays the piano very well. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling.Michael’s friend, Winston Chen, however, is not so lucky. Although both his parents are successful musicians(音乐家), they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are, so they enterhim in every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does notwin. “When I was your age, I used to win every competition I entered,”Winston’s father tells him. Winston is always afraid that he willdisappoint(使…失望) his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.1. One of the worst mistakes any parent can make is to __________.A. pay much attention to their child’s educationB. push the child into trying to achieve too muchC. make their child become a musicianD. help their child to succeed in the future2. Michael Li is lucky because __________.A. his father knows music and teaches him muchB. his parents are rich enough to support himC. his mother doesn’t know much about musicD. his parents help him in a wise way3. The two examples show that __________.A. it is important to let children develop in their ownwayB. it is successful to let children develop without others’ helpC. successful parents often have unsuccessful childrenD. the more you help your children, the less they can achieve19. Many of us feel uneasy when someone stands too close to us, talks to ustoo loudly or makes eye contact (接触) with us for too long. But have youever wondered why those things make you uncomfortable?It’s all about personal space, which means not only an imaginary space around the body, but also the space aroundall the senses. People feel that their space is beingviolated (侵犯) when they meet with an unwelcome sound,smell or look. This is probably why a man on a crowdedbus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next toyou putting on strong perfume (香水) makes you feel angry.Whether people have had a stronger wish to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say. Yet studiesof airlines show that people have a strong desire (渴望)to have space to themselves. In a survey by TripAdvisor, a travel website, people said that if they had to pay more for some extra service, they would rather have larger seats than extra food.Although people may need their personal space, some hardly realize it. For example, people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keepa distance from strangers.Go and watch a library table. You will notice that oneof the corner seats will usually be taken first, because they are the farthest away. What if someone sits oppositeto you? Maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall.Preferences (偏好) for personal space are different from culture to culture. Scientists have found that Americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures. In Latin (拉丁人的) cultures, however, peopleare more comfortable standing close to each other.1. The writer mainly __________ in this article.A. tells us how to achieve personal spaceB. explains why people need personal spaceC. introduces some knowledge about personal spaceD. argues for the importance of keeping personal space2.

One afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting.

Each time I heard her continuous burst of words, I moved away quickly .I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop buying some souvenirs when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended (延长) it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wife's jacket. "He's a brave man." The salesman at the counter said, "Most of us wouldgive up if we were blinded at such a young age. During his recovery (恢复)he made a promise that his life wouldn't change. So, as before, he and hiswife come in whenever there's a new art show.""But what dose he get out of the art?" I asked, "He can't see.""Can't see? You're wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do." The salesman said, "His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head."I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight andthe courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life.

Here is an interesting experiment that can make something disappear, when one eye is open.Make a card about the size of a postcard and write two English letters L and R on it, L on the left and R on the right. First, hold the card about 80 cm away and you see both the letters. Then close your right eye and look at the letter R only with your left eye. And now, as you move the card slowly towards you, you’ll find the letter L disappearing. But if you move the card nearer to your face, the letter will be seen again. Now do the same experiment with your left eye closed, you’ll find the letter R disappearing.Why does the letter disappear? It is because there is a blind spot on the eye. When the image (影像) of the letter falls on the blind spot, it won’t be seen. That is why either of the letters disappears.（）45.The writer of the passage thinks that _____ there is a blind spot on the eye.A. few people knowB. no one knowsC. most people knowD. all the people know（）46. ―a blind spot‖ in the passage means ________ in Chinese.A.污点B. 消散C. 盲点D. 遗失（）47.

Andevery afternoon when Alan, in the bed next to the window, could sit up, he would passthe time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see. Ducks and swansplayed on the water while children sailed their model boats. Lovers walked arm in armamong flowers. Trees and skyline could be seen in the distance. As he described all this,Henry, on the other side of the room, would close his eyes and imagine the scene.One warm afternoon Alan described a parade passing by. Although Henry couldnot hear the band, he could see it in his mind. Unexpectedly, a strange thought enteredhis head: Why should he have all the pleasure of seeing everything while I never got tosee anything? It doesn’t seem fair. Henry felt ashamed at first. But as the days passedand he missed seeing more sight, his envy grew and soon let him down. He began tofind himself unable to sleep. He should be by that window ---and that thought nowcontrolled his life.Late one night, as he lay looking at the top of the room. Alan began to cough. Hewas choking(窒息的). Henry watched in the dark room as the struggling man triedhard to reach for the button to call for help. Listening from across the room, he nevermoved, never pushed his own button which would have brought the nurse running. Inless than five minutes, the coughing and choking stopped, along with the sound ofbreathing. Now, there was only silence---deathly silence.As soon as it seemed suitable, Henry asked if he could be moved next to thewindow. The nurse was happy to make the switch(交换)and after making sure he wascomfortable, she left him alone.Slowly, painfully, he struggled to take his first look.

On July 16BIf parents’ aim(目标) is only to make a child be a genius(天才), they will cause a disaster. Several leading educational psychologists(心理学家) say this is one of the biggest mistakes that can cause great problems to children.However, if parents are a little gentler, the child may act successfully—especially if the parents can support him. Michael Li is very lucky. He is very fond of music, and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and inviting a teacher to give him personal piano lessons. They even drive him 59 kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Although Michae l’s mother knows very little about music, Michael’s father plays the piano very well. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling.Michael’s friend, Winston Chen, however, is not so lucky. Although both his parents are succe ssful musicians(音乐家), they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are, so they enter him in every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win. “When I was your age, I used to win every co mpetition I entered,” Winston’s father tells him. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint(使…失望) his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.48. One of the worst mistakes any parent can make is to __________.A. pay much attention to the ir child’s educationB. push the child into trying to achieve too muchC. make their child become a musicianD. help their child to succeed in the future49. Michael Li is lucky because __________.A. his father knows music and teaches him muchB. his parents are rich enough to support himC. his mother doesn’t know much about musicD. his parents help him in a wise way50. The two examples show that __________.A. it is important to let children develop in their own wayB. it is successful to le t children develop without others’ helpC. successful parents often have unsuccessful childrenD. the more you help your children, the less they can achieveCMany of us feel uneasy when someone stands too close to us, talks to us too loudly or makes eye contact (接触) with us for too long. But have you ever wondered why those things make you uncomfortable?It’s all about personal space, which means not only an imaginary space around the body, but also the space around all the senses. People feel that their space is being violated (侵犯) when they meet with an unwelcome sound, smell or look. This is probably why a man on a crowded bus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next to you putting on strong perfume (香水) makes you feel angry.Whether people have had a stronger wish to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say. Yet studies of airlines show that people have a strong desire (渴望) to have space to themselves. In a survey by TripAdvisor, a travel website, people said that if they had to pay more for some extra service, they would rather have larger seats than extra food.Although people may need their personal space, some hardly realize it. For example, people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keep a distance from strangers.Go and watch a library table. You will notice that one of the corner seats will usually be taken first, because they are the farthest away. What if someone sits opposite to you? Maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall.Preferences (偏好) for personal space are different from culture to culture. Scientists have found that Americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures. In Latin (拉丁人的) cultures, however, people are more comfortable standing close to each other.51. The writer mainly __________ in this article.A. tells us how to achieve personal spaceB. explains why people need personal spaceC. introduces some knowledge about personal spaceD. argues for the importance of keeping personal space52. What can we know from the survey by TripAdvisor?A. People need a smaller personal space in recent times than before.B. People have a strong desire for personal space in recent times.C. There are not enough seats on the plane to meet pe ople’s needs.D. Food service is better provided than seats on the plane.53. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The space around the body is more needed than that around all the senses.B. If you hold newspapers on the bus, your personal space won’t be violated.C. People usually choose the corner seats first in a library for personal space.D. Different cultures share the same preferences for personal space.DOne afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of the art works.A young couple viewing the paintings ahead of me chatted nonstop between themselves. I watched them a moment and decided the wife was doing all the talk. I admired the husband's patience for putting up with (忍受) her continuous talk. Distracted (分心) by their noise, I moved on.I met with them several times as I moved through the different rooms of art. Each time I heard her continuous burst of words, I moved away quickly.I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop buying some souvenirs when the couple came near to the exit. Before they left, the man reached into his pocket and pulled out a white object. He extended (延长) it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the coatroom to get his wife's jacket."He's a brave man." The salesman at the counter said, "Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. During his recovery (恢复) he made a promise that his life wouldn't change. So, as before, he and his wife come in whenever there's a new art show.""But what dose he get out of the art?" I asked, "He can't see.""Can't see? You're wrong. He sees a lot. More than you or I do." The salesman said, "His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head."I learned something about patience, courage and love that day. I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away hand in hand.54. The young couple were at an art museum __________.A. to show their loveB. to enjoy artC. to discuss paintingsD. to describe paintings55. "...I moved away quickly." in Paragraph 3 shows that the writer __________.A. was in the hope of visiting more roomsB. was in a hurry to buy some giftsC. was tired of the nonstop talkingD. was not interested in the art show56. We can infer from the passage that the husband __________.A. was not born blindB. couldn't put up with his wifeC. knew nothing about artD. completely depended on his wife57. The passage is mainly about __________.A. the importance of artB. good manners in publicC. patience of a husbandD. love between a couple第II卷(主观题共40分)五、词汇运用（本大题共8分，每小题1分）(A) 根据句意和汉语注释，写出单词的正确形式。
