AOn February 14th many people in the world celebrate an unus ual holiday, St. Valentine's Day, a special day for lovers. The origin of this holiday is uncertain but according to one story it gets its name from a Christian named Valentine who lived in Rome during the 3rd century A.D. His job was to perform marr iages for Christian couples. Unfortunately the Emperor of Ro me didn't allow Christian marriages. So they had to be perfor med in secret(秘密地). Finally Valentine was arrested and put into prison. While he was in prison he fell in love with the daughter of the prison guard. After one year the Emperor offered to release(释放) Valentine if he would stop performing Christian marriages.Valentine refused and so he was killed in February, 270 A.D. Before he was killed Valentine sent a love letter to the daught er of the prison guard. He signed the letter "from your Valentin e". That was the first Valentine.Today Valentines are cards usually red and shaped like heart s with messages of love written in them. On Valentine's Day t ens of millions of people send and receive Valentines. Wheth er it is an expensive heart-shaped box of chocolates from a secret admirer or a simple h and-made card from a child, a Valentine is a very special message of love.1、The passage is mainly about ________.A. a special holidayB. one possible origin of St. Valentine's DayC. the love story of a Christian called ValentineD. what is Valentine today2、Valentine was put into prison because _________.A. he didn't allow Christian marriagesB. he performed marriages for Christian couples openlyC. he performed marriages for Christian couples, which was a gainst the king's wishD. he sent a love letter to the daughter of the prison guard3、Which of the following about Valentines is TRUE?A. Valentines are cards usually red.B. Valentines are shaped like hearts.C. There are messages of love written in Valentines.D. all of the above4、People send Valentines to each other nowadays ________.A. to show their love and affectionB. to celebrate Valentine's birthdayC. to surprise othersD. to show how great love isBIn the United States, it is not customary(习惯) to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you tel ephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having bre akfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very import ant and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is at tached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone r eceives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. g uests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before th e party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointme nt too far in advance because plans which are made for a dat e more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderst andings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would t hink of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it wo uld be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late, will say a f ew words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.5、What is the main idea of this passage? ________A. It is not customary to telephone someone in the morning a nd in sleeping hours in the U.S.B. The role of time in social life over the world.C. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U.S.D. Not every country treats the concept of time as the same. 6、Which of the following time is proper if you want to make an a ppointment with your friend?A. at 7:00 am.B. at 4:00 pm.C. at the midnight.D. at 4:00 am.7、Which of the following statements is true according to the pas sage? ________A. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four d ays before the party date.B. There is no misunderstanding arising between people from different cultures about the concept of time.C. It may be considered foolish to make an appointment well i n advance in the U.S.A..D. Promptness is valued highly in American life.8、From the passage we can safely infer that _______.A. it's a matter of life or death if you call someone in day timeB. the meaning of time differs in different parts of the worldC. it makes no difference in the U.S. whether you are early or late for a business partyD. if a person is late for a date, he needn't make some explan ationCSixteen-year-old Maria was waiting in line at the airport in Santo Domingo. She was leaving her native country to join her sister in the Uni ted States. She spoke English very well. Though she was ver y happy she could go abroad, she was feeling sad at leaving her family and friends. As she was thinking all about this, she suddenly heard the airline employee asking her to pick up her luggage and put it on the scales(称). Maria pulled and pulled. The bag was too heavy and she just couldn't lift it up. The ma n behind her got very impatient. He, too, was waiting to check in his luggage."What's wrong with this girl?" He said, "Why doesn't she hurry up?" He moved forward and placed his bag on the counter, hoping to check in first. He was in a hurry to get a good seat.Maria was very angry, but she was very polite. And in her bes t English she said, "Why are you so upset? There are enough seats for everyone on the plane. If you are in such a hurry, wh y can't you give me a hand with my luggage?"The man was surprised to hear Maria speak English. He quic kly picked up her luggage and stepped back. Everyone was lo oking at him with disapproval.9、Maria's story happened ________.A. when she was leaving AmericaB. on her way back to Santo DomingoC. before she left the USAD. when she arrived at the airport10、"Why are you so upset?" Maria said to the man. She wanted t o tell him that he should not be ________.A. surprisedB. sadC. unhappyD. sorry11、"Everyone was looking at him with disapproval." This sentence means that the people around felt ____.A. worried about MariaB. worried about the manC. sorry for Maria's mannersD. sorry for the man's manners12、The author mentioned Maria's age at the beginning of the stor y in order to show that ________.A. she was young but behaved properlyB. she would not have left home aloneC. everyone around her was wrongD. it was not good that nobody offered to help herDThere are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, w hich we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achiev ed in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It sho uld be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than i ts foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievem ent of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new sh ort-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or th e entire school year, or they could even extend for several ye ars. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never all ow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability t o grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates gro w, your motivation and desire will increase.Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We s hould never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.13、New short-term goals are built upon ________.A：a daily basisB：your achievement in a weekC：current activitiesD：the goals that have been completed14、When we complete each step of our goals, ________.A：we will win final successB：we are overwhelmedC：we should build up confidence of successD：we should have strong desire for setting new goals 15、What is the main idea of this passage? ________A：Life is a dynamic thing.B：We should set up long-term goals.C：Different kinds of goals in life.D：The limitation of long-term goals.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

A tall nicely dressed man in his forties was 11 in front of me. What got my attention was not the man, but the huge box of hand-made Belgian 12 that he was carrying. A friend had once brought me a smaller box of these chocolates and they were 13 . But unfortunately, I could not find them in the local stores. I was just 14 where he had bought them, when my voracious(贪吃的)thoughts were 15 by screams coming from an old woman, sitting on the steps of the church.Her clothes were 16 and her face was red from anger and, also 17 years of drinking. She had a small plate with a few 18 in it that she managed to collect that morning. People walking by were glancing and turning their faces ?looking embarrassed and even19 .20 the man, who was ahead of me, walked right up to the old woman and placed the box of chocolates right in her plate and then without saying a word walked away as if 21 had happened.The woman went 22 . She looked at the box, 23 . She slowly shook it, probably to make sure that it is not a joke. She carefully opened the box and 24 these chocolates. Then something 25 happened.She said “Thank you!” to no one in particular and smiled with a smile that completely transformed her face. She was no longer an old drunken lady. She was someone worthy of this 26 gift!This incident has made me think how fast we 27 people by their looks and behavior and how often we decide who deserve our 28 and who will have to go without being respected.

Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (Although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion the counting sheep will put you to sleep!31．A good title for this passage is ________.A．Sleep B．Good Health C．Dreams D．Work and Rest 32．The word “drowsy” in the last paragraph means ________.A．sick B．stand up C．a little sleepy D．asleep33．This passage suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you ________.A．dream more often B．have poor healthC．nervous D．breathe quickly34．During REM, ________.A．your eyes move quickly B．you dreamC．you are restless D．both A and B35．The average number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is ________.A．approximately six hours B．around ten hoursC．about eight hours D．not stated hereCrocodiles lay their eggs and leave them under leaves or sand. Crocodiles have special sharp teeth with which to break their way out of the shells.Crocodiles only live where it is hot. They are found in India, Australia, Africa and America. The crocodile’s long powerful tail is used when the animal is swimming. It is also an excellent weapon, because it can be swung with great speed and force. One blow will knock down a man or even a big animal at once. The crocodile is very well protected against its enemies by the hard bony plates which cover most of its body, but because of the way its neck is formed, it cannot turn its head from side to side and so it can only see in front of itself. The crocodile has its teeth cleaned by the crocodile bird. For its food, this bird takes the bits left in the crocodile’s mouth. This helps the crocodile, which cannot clean its own teeth, for it cannot move its tongue up and down. With its rows of terrible sharp teeth it seizes (抓) its food, which may be a fish, an animal, or even a careless man, and then holds it below the water until it drowns.36．We can find crocodiles ________.A．everywhere B．in hot placeC．Africa and America D．Australia37．How are the crocodile’s teeth cleaned?A．The crocodile bird helps them to do it.B．A special fish cleans them.C．Using its tongue.D．Clean water.38．Crocodiles’ eggs are often hidden under ________.A．the tree B．shells C．leaves and sand D．water39．Which sentence is wrong?A．Crocodile can see things all around it.B．Baby crocodiles can help themselves to break their way out of the shells.C．Crocodiles can’t move its tongue up and down.D．A careless man may be seized by crocodile.40．The crocodile does with its food ________.A．above the water B．by his weapon C．under shells D．under waterIt was 1961 and I was in the fifth grade. My marks in school were miserable and, the thing was, I didn't know enough to really care. My older bother and I lived with Mom in an ugly multifamily house in Detroit. Every night after supper, we'd lie on Mom's bed and stare for hours at the TV screen.But one day Mom changed our world forever. She turned off the TV, sat us down and explained that her sons were going to make something of themselves. “You boys are going to read two books every week and write a report on what you read.”We moaned (不满，发牢骚) and complained about how unfair it was. Besides, we didn't have any books in the house other than Mom's Bible. But she explained that we would go where the books were: “I'll drive you to the library.”So pretty soon there were these two peevish (坏脾气的) boys in her Oldsmobile on their way to Detroit Public Library.The first book I read clear through was Chip the Dam Builder. It was about beavers (河狸).For the first time in my life I was lost in another world. No television program had ever taken me so far away from my surroundings as did this virtue visit to a cold stream in a forest and these animals building a home.It didn't dawn on (明白) me at the time,but the experience was quite different from watching TV. There were images forming in my mind instead of before my eyes. And I could return to them again and again with the flip (快速翻动) of a page.Soon I began to look forward to visiting this quiet sanctuary from my other world. Along the way a funny thing happened:I started to know things. Teachers started to notice it too. I got to the point where I couldn't wait to get home to my books.Now my older brother is an engineer and I am chief of pediatric neurosurgery (儿童神经外科). Sometimes I still can't believe my life's journey ends up to this position, but I know when the journey began.41．We can learn from the beginning of the passage that ________.A．the author did worse in school than his brotherB．the author was old enough to worry about lifeC．the author spent much time watching TV after schoolD．the author lived a poor and miserable life42．How did the two boys feel about going to the library at first?A．They were afraid.B．They were unwilling.C．They were impatient.D．They were eager to go.43．The author began to love books for the following reasons EXCEPT that ________.A．he began to see something in his mindB．he could visualize what he read in his mindC．he could go back to read the books againD．he realized that books offered him new experience44．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A．Oldsmobile was a popular TV programB．Chip the Dam Builder was a book about beavers' virtue visit to a riverC．the author made improvements in his study after taking much readingD．the teachers found the author became funny45．Readers may find this story inspiring because ________.A．Mom makes efforts to encourage her children to become somethingB．Mom does not allow watching TV and buys books for her children's developmentC．the children are lost in books and never watch TVD．the children focus on their study to become famous“A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE,” is how Sam Schneider, a manager of Homestead, a new company that provides money to build granny flats, describes the permit process (许可流程) in California. Yet, sitting in his office in Los Angeles, he agrees that the paperwork is getting easier. Granny flats — or Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) (附属居住单元), as Americans call them — have taken off in California and cities around the American West as house prices have risen.An ADU is a flat built in the same place as a single-family home. Owners rent them for money, or house family in them. About 180 cities in California passed ADU laws between 2017 and 2020. Los Angeles gave permits for nearly 6,700 units in 2019, up from about 4,100 in 2018. Seattle passed some 500 in 2020 and 800 in 2021. Tobias Peter of the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) views ADUs as one example of “light-touch density (密度)”, which also includes making single-family homes into several units. Such changes may become more common in California thanks to a law passed last year which avoided single-family zoning (将……分区) Things are moving more slowly in cities with strict zoning conditions. Denver allowed just two granny flats in 2010 and 71 in 2019. Many single-family homeowners in Colorado’s capital who want to build an ADU must apply in person to have their place rezoned, which can take months. Permits and building can also be costly and confusing. That is where companies like Homestead come in. As interest in ADUs grows, so does the number of companies wanting to build them.High-density developments are also greener than single-family ones thanks to reduced heating and cooling costs, and shorter commutes (通勤). Adding units to areas near cities allows more people to live close to public bus stops and the places where they would work, reducing air pollution.Granny flats alone will not solve California’s housing crunch, but their popularity is a good sign. “If you create enough housing supplies (供应量),” says Mr Schneider, Los Angeles and SanFrancisco will “become places where people can actually live, and not places where people can only leave.”46．What can be inferred about the ADUs from the first paragraph?A．Sam Schneider’s granny signed her flat to him.B．Homestead is no good at preparing the paperwork.C．The paperwork was more difficult in the past than it is now.D．More and more Americans move to the American West to avoid increasing house prices. 47．How does the writer mainly develop the second paragraph?A．By listing numbers.B．By giving examples.C．By using an expert’s words.D．By explaining the reason and the result. 48．Why are there a growing number of companies dealing in ADUs?A．Because it is not easy to get permits or build an ADU.B．Because they meet the needs of people who want an ADU.C．Because some single-family homeowners don’t know how to apply for an ADU.D．Because it takes experienced companies less time and money to build an ADU. 49．What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?A．The advantages of ADUs.B．ADUs’ development.C．A single family’s living costs.D．Cities’ environmental problems. 50．Which of the following best explains the underlined part “housing crunch” in the last paragraph?A．There are no empty houses.B．There are not enough houses.C．There are only newly-built houses.D．There are only houses in the downtown are.Fat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class who was picked for any sports team. “Football, tennis, basketball anything with a round ball, I was useless,” he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one who was always made fun of in school PE classes in Devonshire, England.It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength (力量).At the age of 18, he won his first long-distance race (长跑比赛).The following year he came across John Ridgway. He was hired as an instructor at Ridgway’s School of Adventure (探险) in Scotland, where he learned about Ridgway’s adventures. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could read about the North Pole explorers and adventures, and then decided this would be his future.In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier (滑雪者), Saunders started his first long-distance adventure towards the North Pole. It took him a lot of hard work. He experienced low temperatures, ran into a white bear and challenged his spirit and body, pulling his sled (雪撬) up and over rocky ice.Saunders has since become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he’s skied more of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change. Next October, Saunders, 27, will head south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, a 2900-kilometer journey that has never been completed on skis.51．What made Ben Saunders change when he was fifteen? (no more than 10 words)52．When did Ben Saunders get first place in a long-distance race for the first time? (no more than 5 words)53．What does the underlined part in Paragraph mean? (no more than 10 words)54．What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? (no more than 10 words)55．What do you think of Ben Saunders? Please explain. (no more than 25 words)。

First of all, I’d like to tell you not to be afraid of making mistakes. You can make much progress by making mistakes and correcting them. Secondly, reading and reciting are very important. When you read and recite as much as possible, you know how to make sentences and use English. By the way, reading and reciting can improve your speaking and listening. As for grammar learning, I don’t think it is right to remember only grammar rules. It is a good way to learn grammar by putting it into specific situations. During the speech, I’ll explain the above in detail and answer your questions.Yours,Peter。

AJimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has a good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 a.m. and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It‟s the least I could do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the intervie wer‟s office with disappointed looks on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy‟s heart sank.“With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” He thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy‟s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into this office. I just know you‟d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and the y shared a cup of well-deservedcoffee as he landed himself a new job.21. Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A. He was out of work.B. He was bored with his job.C. He wanted a higher position.D. he hoped to find a better boss.22. What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?A. A friend‟s car had a flat tyre.B. A wild man was pushing a car.C. A terrible car accident happened.D. An old man‟s car broke down.23. Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?A. He was also to be interviewed.B. He needed a traveling companion.C. He always helped people in need.D. He was thankful to Jimmy .24. How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewer‟s question?A. He was sorry for the other applicants.B. There was no hope for him to get the job.C. He regretted helping the old man.D. The interviewer was very rude.BSome people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I'm not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don't come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that's just the reality of how life is.However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in additional to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practising. To become great at certain things, it'll require even more time, time that most people won't put in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don't enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway.Whatever you do , if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you're not willing to put in the time and work, don't expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won't guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.25. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ______.A. the reasons for success.B. the meaning of successC. the standards of success.D. the importance of success26. In Paragraph 2, the underlined word "that" refers to _______.A. being good at something.B. setting a practical goal.C. putting in more time.D. succeeding in life27. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A. Successful people like to show their great skills.B. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.C. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.28. What is the main theme of the passage?A. Having a goal is vital to success.B. Being good is different from being great.C. One cannot succeed without time and practice.D. Luck, talent and family help to achieve success.C.Interested in sharing your views in the Campus Link?

They can affect the ability to listen or think, or to speak, or to read, or to write and do mathematics.A person with a learning disability has unusual difficulty in developing these skills. Researchers believe that learning disabilities are caused by differences in the way that the brain works with information. They say children with learning disabilities are not unintelligent or do not want to work. Their brains just process information differently than other people. Researchers say that one in five people in America has some kinds of learning disability. Almost three million children in America receive some kinds of help in school for a learning disability.How can you tell if someone has a learning disability? Experts look for a difference between how well a child does in school and the level of intelligence or ability of the child. But there is no sign of a disorder. A few signs of a learning disability include not connecting letters with their sounds or not understanding what is read. A person with a learning disability may not be able to understand a funny story. They may not follow directions. They may not read numbers correctly or know how to start a task Different people have different kinds of learning disabilities. Another may have difficulty understanding what people are saying. Still another may not be able to express ideas in writing.These different kinds of learning disabilities are known by different names. For example, a person who has difficulty reading may have dyslexia. Someone who cannot do mathematics may have a disorder called dyscalculia (计算困难).Experts say learning disabilities cannot be cured. But people who have them can be helped. Teachers and parents can help young people with learning disabilities to learn successfully.33. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Cost of learning disabilities.B. How to cure learning disabilities.C. General introduction to learning disabilities.D. Causes of learning disabilities.34. It is believed that ____ is the main cause of learning disabilities.A. different brainB. mother languageC. being lazyD. the different ways the brain works with information35. People with learning disabilities may have no trouble ____.A. understanding a funny storyB. following directionsC. dressing themselvesD. reading numbers correctly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。
