And they loved him. This was my first year to work but it was Walter’s 32 . It was Walter Jansen who told me 33 the big “Trip to the Island” tradition. Every December the two hundred workers’ families would 34 and each family would place five dollars in a box and write its name on a piece of paper. Then someone would be blindfolded and draw the 35 of the family that would go for a happy two-week trip.“Why don’t you come to the gathering” Walter 36 to me. “I’ll 37 you to everyone.”38 three o’clock each family had put five dollars. But before the 39 the announcer called Walter up and 40 him a medal expressing their thanks for his years of care and 41 . Then I was asked to draw the name of the 42 family. I was blindfolded and 43 to the box. I reached in, and 44 settled on one.I took off the blindfold and read the piece of paper. “45 !”The 46 were defending.

For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You say,“Yes, but how many miles away is it” They don’t know.It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!51. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually ______.A. describe the place carefullyB. show him a map of the placeC. tell him the names of the streetsD. refer to recognizable buildings and places52. People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer ______.A. in order to save timeB. as a test.C. so as to be politeD. for fun53. What can we infer from the textA. It’s important for travelers to understand cultural differences.B. It’s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.C. People have similar understandings of politeness.D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.BSandra Cisneros was born in Chicago in 1954 to a Mexican American family. As the only girl in a family of seven children, she often felt like she had “seven fathers,” because her six brothers, as well as her father, tried to control her. Feeling shy and unimportant, she retreated (躲避) into books. Despite her love of reading, she did not do well in elementary school because she was too shy to take part.In high school, with the encouragement of one particular teacher, Cisneros improved her grades and worked for the school literary magazine. Her father encouraged her to go to collegebecause he thought it would be a good way for her to find a husband. Cisneros did attend college, but instead of searching for a husband, she found a teacher who helped her join the famous graduate writing program at the University of Iowa. At the university’s Writers’ Workshop, however, she felt lonely — a Mexican American from a poor neighborhood among students from wealthy families. The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her “Creative voice.”“It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice. I knew I was a Mexican woman, but I didn’t think it had anything to do with why I felt so much imbalance in my life, but it had everything to do with it! That’s when I decided I would write about something my classmates couldn’t write about.”Cisneros published her first work, The House on Mango Street, when she was twenty-nine. The book tells about a young Mexican American girl growing up in a Spanish-speaking area in Chicago, much like the neighborhoods in which Cisneros lived as a child. The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in classes from high school through graduate school level. Since then, Cisneros has published several books of poetry, a children’s book, and a short-story collection.54. The graduate program gave Cisneros a chance to _____.A. work for a school magazineB. run away from her familyC. make a lot of friendsD. develop her writing style55. According to Cisneros, what played the decisive role in her successA. Her early years in college.B. Her training in the workshop.C. Her feeling of being different.D. Her childhood experience.56. What do we learn about The House on Mango StreetA. It is quite popular among students.B. It is the only book ever written by Cisneros.C. It wasn’t success as it was written in Spanish.D. It won an award when Cisneros was twenty-nine.CShe is a lovely, quiet girl. As a daughter, she has no secrets from her mother, who is very pleased with her. But recently she has become somewhat mysterious, not so open as before. She has a diary that she keeps under lock and key. Her mother cannot help worrying about her: what if she falls in love, which is too early for a girl of her age After all she is reaching the "dangerous stage". These thoughts have caused trouble in the mother’s mind.One weekend the girl came to tell her mother that she was going to the cinema with her schoolmate and would return late. This was the first time her mother agreed, and she couldn't help worrying because her daughter had never been away at night before. The mother waited till nine and her uneasiness got the upper hand over her. She decided to go out to meet her daughter.Just at that moment the noise of a car pulling up drew her to the window and there was her daughter, waving goodbye to a boy. Her heart missed a beat. When the girl came in, the mother was watching TV, pretending nothing had happened. “Mum, I'm back.” “Yeah.” “Sorry to be late. Still sitting up” “Yes. Oh, that．．．Who's that boy” The daughter was stunned(发愣) fora moment. “Ah. It's my monitor. He gave me a lift on his way home. Mum, I'm going to bed.” “All right. Go to sleep early.”Next morning when the mother went to the daughter's room to do some tidying, she found her diary left at her pillow. After a few minutes' hesitation she eventually opened it to the entry of the night before. It read: Mum, it’s love that made you ask, but it would show your understanding of me if you hadn't.Holding the diary, the mother fell in thought.57.

Other children were standing around watching him with envious(羡慕的) eyes.Envy Of an empty tinThis tin was indeed no worthless piece of trash --- it was a splendid truck, complete with wheels and grille(铁栅) and floor. The vehicle even had remote control, a frayed piece of string from the “engine” to the hand of the owner.The tin had lost all its original markings. But its first load had probably been sardines(沙丁鱼). Later the tin had been left with other rubbish behind the refugee camp clinic, and the boy had found it on one of his daily expeditions into the “big world”.For thousands of refugee children, a tin like this rates high on their list of wants. It can be used for many purposes, as jewellery, as a toy, for drinking or as a medicine box.Many refugee children would consider it the happiest day of their lives if they received a handful of marbles(弹珠) as a present.They dream of gifts which children in developed countries take for granted. Maybe a book to read, or a pencil and an exercise book of their very own.Their imagination can create toys, but it cannot create books. Someone else must provide them. A more costly and valuable gift they cannot imagine.63. Other children envied the young boy because the boy ___________.A. had a real truck toyB. got some sardines to eatC. received a handful of marblesD. had something to play with64. Which of the following would be the best title for the passageA. An Enviable Toy PresentB. A Splendid Truck ToyC. Sardine Tin --- A Precious ToyD. A Poor Refugee Camp65. What is implied in the last paragraph of the textA. The society should donate(捐) some toys for the refugee children.B. The refugee children are more imaginative rather than creative.C. The society should offer the refugee children things for study.D. The refugee children are more creative rather than imaginative.V．单词拼写(10%)66.
