As the result of a medical accident she was sightless, suddenly thrown into a world of darkness, anger, frustration and self-pity.Mark was an Air Force officer and he loved Susan with all his heart. When she first lost her sight, he watched her sink into despair and he was determined to help his wife gain the strength and confidence she needed to become independent again.Finally, Susan felt ready to return to her job, but how would she get there? She used to take the bus, but she was now too frightened to get around the city by herself.Just as Mark predicted, Susan was horrified at the idea of taking the bus again. "I'm blind!" she responded bitterly. "How am I supposed to know where I'm going?"Mark's heart broke to hear these words, but he knew what had to be done. For two weeks, Mark, accompanied Susan to and from work each day. He taught her how to rely on her other senses, specifically her hearing, to determine where she was. He helped her befriend the bus drivers who could watch out for her, and save her a seat.Finally, Susan decided that she was ready to try the trip on her own. She said good-bye, and for the first time, they went their separate ways.On Friday morning, Susan took the bus to work as usual. As she was exiting the bus, the driver said, "Miss, I surely envy you." Curious, Susan asked the driver, "why do you say that you envy me?" The driver answered "You know, every morning for the past week, a finelooking gentleman in a military uniform has been standing across the corner watching you when you get off the bus. He makes sure you cross the street safely and he watches you until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a salute and walks away. You are one lucky lady," the bus driver said.Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks.（1）How did the woman feel when asked to go to work by bus?A.Confident.B.Shameful.C.Reasonable.D.Impossible.（2）What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about?A.How the husband made his wife able to take a bus.B.What the bus driver did to help the woman.C.How the woman got used to taking bus.D.Why the husband felt heartbroken.（3）What did the husband do after his wife could take bus on her own?A.He went to work happily.B.He protected his wife secretly.C.He asked the driver to praise him.D.He let his wife know his existence.3.Mistakes are a part of life. To err is human. Failure is also a part of life, not the end of life. Be happy facing life's challenges. When you make the effort to be happy and to improve your life, you are actually rewarded along the way.Life is like a game and maybe you can award（奖励）points for every effort that has been a success for you. Try it. Add ten points for every achievement. And when you have reached 50 points, just yell, "Hey, I've won!" and give yourself a reward. If you happen to have missed your points for whatever reasons, tell yourself, "well, I tried!" which is better than not trying at all. Don't let it be said you didn't try.What is it that you want to make yourself happy? Actually happiness means different things to different people. For example, an athlete will be happy winning his first race. For a new mother happiness would be seeing her baby's fitst steps. Happiness for a poor person would mean having a meal just for today. So happiness for you is really something simple that you want for yourself.It really does not have to be big. As a matter of fact you should always have realistic expectations. Make the best out of every given situation. If you expect a certain result from a situation and it does not happen, don't get despondent. This just means trying harder next time. We all have in us the power to succeed. Don't let "give up" be a part of your vocabulary.（1）By saying "To err is human", the author means that ______.A.human beings should try to avoid making mistakes.B.no one is perfect and everyone makes mistakes.C.mistakes and failures make up our life.D.human beings make mistakes easily.（2）What's the main idea of Paragraph 2?A.Try to reach 50 points.B.Never stop trying in your life.C.Award yourself for your success.D.Don't be afraid of missing your points.（3）The author proves his idea in Paragraph 3 through ______.A.examplesB.numbersC.experimentsD.stories（4）The underlined word "despondent" in the last paragraph means ______.A.frightenedB.disappointedC.surprisedD.excited4.Volunteering to help people in need combined with traveling to faraway places is a new trend in the travel industry. It is called voluntourism. Recent statistics show that in the past few years voluntourism has been one of the fastest-growing area of tourism. While the trend is hard to quantify, a wide variety of environmental, medical, nature, children's and other groups as well as churches report that participation in volunteer vacations is on the rise. Participants range from teenagers to retirees. They work in orphangages, help build schools, assist in hospitals and do farming work in developing countries. Some of them establish lasting bonds with the faraway people.There are many reasons why people want to take part in voluntourism. Students see it as one way to spend a gap year after school. Some people simply want to take time out from a job and do something else. Then there are those who are interested in new things and try to seek adventure. Instead of a regular beach holiday, baby boomers are attempting to give their life meaning. Perhaps they have the freedom and particularly the income to travel.Not everyone sees voluntourism in a positive way. Organizers say that volunteers are often not skilled enough for the tasks that they do. Travel experts point out that in some cases voluntourists are taken advantage of by the organization that sets up the trips. They urge volunteers to inform themselves about organizations and projects before applying for a job. Serious development programs are mostly sponsored by international organizations.The good news is that many travel agencies around the world offer voluntourism packageswhich provide room discounts or free meals to guests who will participate in volunteering programs. In addition, voluntourism is catching on in college campuses, where many students would rather spend spring break doing something beneficial to others. Voluntourism seems to be enriching not only tourists' lives, but others' worldwide.（1）What's the best title for the text?A.Tourism: a promising IndustryB.Voluntourism Needs ImprovementC.Voluntourism: A New Trend in TravelD.Volunteers benefit More from Voluntourism（2）Why do baby boomers take part in voluntourism?A.To explore sand beaches.B.To increase their income.C.To develop ties with others.D.To make their life meaningful.（3）What do travel experts advise voluntourists to do about job application?A.Improve their working skills.B.Find out all information about it.C.Sponsor international organizations.D.Connect with organizers in advance.（4）What's the author's attitude towards voluntourism?A.Supportive.B.Unconcerned.C.Doubtful.D.Prejudiced.二、七选五阅读5.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。

One of the most unforgettable 1 when I was teaching the second 2 , 10 years ago.In May I decided to plan something special for the children; a Mother's Day tea. We had put our heads together to 3 ideas of how to 4 our mothers. We practiced singing songs, memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother's Day. I was surprised and 5 to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I 6 invited my own mother.Finally, the big day arrived. Each child 7 up at our classroom door, expecting the arrival of his or her mom.8 , it got closer to starting time, I looked around and my eyes quickly found Jimmy.

Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep 14 .Now 10 years later, I work with students of all ages, educating them about the environment. Last year, I took a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy. I had the students complete an outline of the day's 15 and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students' booklets and checked them to see if 16 was completed. When I came 17 Jimmy's page, he had written "Remember our Mother's Day tea we had in the second grade, Mrs. Marra?

It was the third shark attack along the coast of Australia's largest city in a month.The 15-year-old boy and his father were in the water off Avalon, on Sydney's northern beaches, around dawn when he was attacked. The city's beaches are packed with locals and tourists during the summer months.“The father heard a scream and turned to see his son thrashing（激烈扭动）about in the water, ”the police said.“Fortunately, the shark swam away and the boy was helped to the shore by his father.”Lifesaving Club spokesman Nick Miller said, “It got him around the top of his left leg and the father came and dragged him out of water.” He said the boy was bleeding heavily when he was brought to the shore.“There was a lot of pain, as you can imagine.” The teenager was airlifted to hospital for treatment for leg injuries.Police said the bites “cut through to the bone”, but th e boy did not appear to have sustained any fractures （骨折）. He was in a stable condition now.Several beaches were closed after the attack. Water police and lifeguards were searching for the shark, while the police hoped to identify its species by the shape of the bite marks. But they said it was too early to say what type of shark attacked the boy.“I don't even know if he saw it,” Miller said.Many shark species live in the waters off Sydney's beaches, but attacks on humans are still relatively rare. However, there were two attacks on successive days earlier this month, one on a navy diver in Sydney harbor, not far from the famous Opera House, and the other on a surfer at the city's world-famous Bondi beach.Fishermen say shark numbers are on the rise. There is a ban on commercial fishing in the harbor, which has increased fish stocks.Marine experts also claim environmental protection has created a cleaner environment, attracting sharks closer to the shore as they chase fish.Many shark species, including the Great White—the man-eaters made famous in Steven Spielberg's Jaws—are protected in Australian waters.1．The report mainly tells us ________.A．shark attacks on humans are on the riseB．sharks attacked humans three times in one monthC．a boy was attacked by a shark at a Sydney beachD．shark numbers are increasing in the waters off Sydney's beaches2．The unde rlined word “savaged” in the first paragraph probably means “________”.A．attracted B．dragged C．bit D．packed3．What do we know about the city of Sydney from the passage?B．Sydney harbor is not far from the famous Opera House.C．There are many locals and tourists on its coast all the year round.D．There are few shark species in the waters off Sydney's beaches.。
