meet．Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 36 problem．They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people．Other times they begin to act without 37 ; they try to find a solution by trial and error．However, when all of these methods 38 , the person with a problem has to start analyzing．There are six 39 in analyzing a problem．First the person must recognize that there is a problem．For examp le, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does．Sam must 40 that there is a problem with his bicycle．Next the person must 41 the problem．Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work．For example, he must 42 the parts that are wrong．Now the person must look for 43 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 44 ．solutions．For example, suppose Sam 45 that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes．At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, talk to his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully．After 46 the problem, the person should have 47 suggestions for a possible solution．Take Sam as an example 48 , his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes, buy new brakes and change the old ones．In the end, one 49 seems to be the solution 50 the problem．Sometimes the 51 idea comes quite 52 because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a 53 way．Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum stuck to a brake．He immediately hits on the solution to his problem: he must 54 the brake．Finally the solution is 55 ．Sam does it and finds his bicycle works perfectly．In short, he has solved the problem．36．A．serious B．usual C．similar D．common 37．A．practising

Sunday and the heavy storm had lasted all night．The morning after the storm, though, was beautiful: blue skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently．My father realised it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him．I was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same．I' m so glad I did．On the way to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast, but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape．After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea．As we got on board, we noticed two big humps （脊背）in the distance．On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby．We couldn't believe it —there aren't any whales along the coast here．The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive．The little baby whale —actually as big as our boat —was obviously stuck and could not move．The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools （漩涡）and waves．"She's trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side," my father said．At this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently．With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water．Then it swam up right beside its mum．They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction．We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel．Slowly, they let us lead them, sometimes rising from the water right beside us to breathe -- and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes．Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance．In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half．That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day．Nearly four decades later, I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea．56．The author says "I' m so glad I did．" （in Para．2）because _________．A．he witnessed the whole process of fishingB．he enjoyed the beauty of the calm seaC．he experienced the rescue of the whalesD．he spent the weekend with his family57．The mother whale failed to help her baby because __________．A．she had stayed in the polluted water for too longB．the whirlpools she had made were not big enoughC．she had no other whales around to turn to for helpD．the waves pushed her baby in the wrong direction58．What is the theme of the story?A．Saving lives brings people a sense of happiness．B．Fishing provides excitement for children．C．It's necessary to live in harmony with animals．D．It's vital to protect the whale in the ocean．BBritons Learn to ForgiveLEEDS, England ─ A Leeds University psychology （心理学）professor is teaching a course to help dozens of Britons forgive their enemies．“The hatred we hold within us is a cancer,” Professor Ken Hart said, adding that holding in anger can lead to problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease．More than 70 people have become members in Hart’s first 20-week workshop in London ─ a course he says is the first of its kind in the world．These are people who are sick and tired of living with a memory．They realize their bitterness is a poison they think they can pour out, but they end up drinking it themselves, said Canadian-born Hart．The students meet in groups of eight to ten for a two-hour workshop with an adviser every fortnight．The course, ending in July, is expected to get rid of the cancer of hatred in these people．“People have lots of negative attitudes towards forgiveness,” he said, “People confuse forgiveness with forgetting．Forgiveness means changing from a negative attitude to a positive one．”Hart and his team have created instructions to provide the training needed．“The main idea is to give you guidelines on how to look at v arious kinds of angers and how they affect you, and how to change your attitudes towards the person you are angry with,” said Norman Claringbull, a senior expert on the forgiveness project．Hart said he believes forgiveness is a skill that can be taught, as these people “want to get free of the past”．59．From this passage we know that _________．A．high blood pressure and heart disease are caused by hatredB．high blood pressure can only be cured by psychology professorsC．without hatred, people will have less trouble connected with blood pressure and heart D．people who suffer from high blood pressure and heart disease must have many enemies 60．In Hart’s first 20-week workshop, people there can ________．A．meet their enemies B．change their attitudes towards bitterness C．enjoy the professor’s speech D．learn how to quarrel with others61．If you are a member in Hart’s workshop, you’ll ________．A．pay much money to Hart B．go to the workshop every nightC．attend a gathering twice a month D．pour out everything stored in your mind 62．The author wrote this passage in order to ________．A．persuade us to go to Hart’s workshop B．tell us the news about Hart’s workshop C．tell us how to run a workshop like Hart’s D．help us to look at various kinds of angersCBeginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to meet and many decisions to make．Your future begins here．However，you will find college life is different from your previous school environment．Many of us can be easily overwhelmed（压垮）by the details of running a well-balanced life．While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you．The following you may find of use about life on campus．* Plan well．There are so many new things to do at a new college or university．Give yourself time to make new friends and become familiar with the campus, but don’t forget w hy you are there．Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely．* If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now （like a day timer, a computer data book）, get one．Most of all, don’t depend on your memory．* Don’t miss the guid elines．The restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student handbook．Consider them well-balanced food for thought．What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can/ can’t you do in class? Wha t can/ can’t you do in your student residence（住处）? Who has right for what? What do you need to complete to graduate?* Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of our bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table．Consider this—you are paying thousands of dollars for your courses．You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course．* Build your identity．This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do．Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas．Do not be afraid of the beyond．This is learning to make good choices．63．What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To offer advice on college life．B．To explain why college life is exciting．C．To describe the importance of college life．D．To persuade you to go to college．64．According to the passage, why is it exciting to begin college life?A．Because you will have more freedom at college．B．Because you will no longer be afraid of the beyond．C．Because you prepare for your future career and life there．D．Because professors there will provide you with many new ideas．65．The underlined word “know-how” refers to ．A．an understanding of how things are going at collegeB．practical knowledge about how to behave and what to do at collegeC．college halls where rules and regulations are presentedD．an environment completely different from the one you’re used to66．According to the passage, college students ________ ．A．needn’t learn from those w ho went to college before themB．spend as much time as possible on social activitiesC．should know what they have fought for on campusD．are supposed to repeat or replace at least one courseDTo err is human．To blame the other guy is even more human．Common sense is not all that common．Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?These three popular misquotes （戏谑的引语）are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature．To err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people don’t want to accept the responsibility for the problem．Perhaps it is the natural thing to do．The original quote about human nature went like this, “ To err is human, to forgive, divine（神圣的）．” This saying mirrors an ideal: people should be forgiving of others’ mistakes．Instead, we tend to do the opposite --- find someone else to pass the blame on to．However, taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity．Common sense is what we call clear thought．Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan．Common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine．Common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything．People say that in a large company, “the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing．”And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people, get the idea that it’s okay not to be totally honest all the time．There is a corollary（直接推论）to that: if good excuse is “good” even if it isn’t honest, then where is the place of the truth? 67．According to the author, what is a sign of a man’s maturity?A．Doing things his own way．B．Bearing responsibility for his mistakes．C．Making as few mistakes as possible．D．Thinking seriously about his wrongdoing．68．Which of the following is N0T based on common sense?A．A man tries to take charge of everything in a large company．B．A student goes out with an umbrella in stormy weather．C．A company’s next move follows a good plan．D．A lawyer acts on fine judgments．69．What is the author’s opinion about a good excuse?A．Making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy．B．Inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas．C．A good excuse is as rewarding as honesty．D．Bitter truth is better than a good excuse．70．What would be the best title for his passage?A．A Mirror of Human Nature B．To Blame or to ForgiveC．A Mark of Maturity D．Truth or ExcuseIV.任务型阅读Literature is a term used to describe written as well as spoken material．Generally speaking, it is often used to describe anything from creative imagination, including works of poetry, drama and fiction．Then why read literature, since it is often imaginary and seems unconnected with real life?A lot of us read literature for pleasure and relaxation．It’s always pleasant to read some interesting books, such as comedies and novels, in our spare time．In a modern life full of pressure, it is our common desire to read some imaginary works and seek relaxation from the stress in life．Reading literature is more than fun; it also enables us to acquire knowledge．As a general rule, literature represents a language or a people, and it often gives us an insight（洞察力）into the traditions, customs, beliefs, attitudes and values of the age in which it was written．Sometimes literature can even offer us new, creative ways to have a better understanding of the world．It helps us make sense of the world around us．It introduces us to new worlds of experiences．We enjoy the comedy and the tragedy of poems, stories and plays; and we may even grow through our literary journey with books．Eventually, we may discover meaning in literature by looking at what the author says and how he/she says it．In a sense, we explore the human condition and analyze how and why people think the way they think and feel the way they feel．Literature enables us to think analytically and promotes open minds．We see the world through the eyes of different cultures and in turn learn the ways to deal with things that happen around．So we can definitely say literature is of great importance to us．Why not get going with one poem, drama or fiction at once?Topic （71）___________ should we read literature?（72）__________ of literature It describes anything, whether written or spoken, by using creative imagination．Types （73）, drama and fiction（74）_ of readingliterature ▲To get pleasure and relaxation to get （75）_______ of pressure in life．▲To gain （76）to make us learn about traditions, customs, beliefs, attitudes and values of the age in which it was written．▲To offer people ways to （77）more of the world, to appreciate literary works, to grow through the literary journey, to discover meaning in literature, and even explore （78）________ humans think and feel．▲To help us think analytically and make us （79）_________ our minds．（80）___________Why not start to read literature right now?V.书面表达（满分25分）作为中学生，你肯定经历过多次考试，体验过成功，也遭遇过失败。
