B Arriving in Sydney on his own from India, my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a hous
24、e for me and our children. During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport. He reported the case to the
25、 police and then sat there,lost and lonely in strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one. Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husbands n
26、ame and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can that had been left out on the footpath. My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pi
27、le of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.That family not only restored the
28、important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.35. What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?A. Go shopping B. Find a houseC. Join his family D. Take his family36. The girls parent
29、s got Rashids phone number from_.A. a friend of his family B. a Sydney policemanC. a letter in his papers D. a stranger in Sydney37.

30、e text?A. From India to Australia. B. Living in a New Country.C. Turning Trash to Treasure. D. In Search of New Friends. C Its not easy being a teenager(13 years old 19 years old)nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say
31、 without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you youll still be there for him when he needs you. Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless
32、driving; consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, dont insist he tell you whats on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that hell clam up. Instead, let him attempt to solve things by himself. At the same time, remind him that youre alway
33、s there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenagers privacy. Never read him his mail or listen in on personal conversions. Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the familys telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for
34、15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation(节制). Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for
35、with his own pocket money or a part time job. 39. The main purpose of the text is to tell parents _.A. how to get along with a teenagerB. how to respect a teenagerC. how to understand a teenagerD. how to help a teenager grow up40.

Give him advice only when necessaryC. Let him have his own telephoneD. Not talk about personal things with him D How Room Des
37、igns Affect Our Work and Feelings Architects have long had the feeling that the places we live in can affect our thoughts, feelings and behaviors. But now scientists are giving this feeling an empirical(经验的,实证的) basis. They are discovering how to design spaces that promote creativity, keep people fo
38、cused and lead to relaxation. Researches show that aspects of the physical environment can influence creativity. In 2007, Joan Meyers-Levy at the University of Minnesota, reported that the height of a rooms ceiling affects how people think. Her research indicates that higher ceilings encourage peopl
39、e to think more freely, which may lead them to make more abstract connections. Low ceilings, on the other hand, may inspire a more detailed outlook. In additions to ceiling height, the view afforded by a building may influence an occupants ability to concentrate. Nancy Wells and her colleagues at Co
40、rnell University found in their study that kids who experienced the greatest increase in greenness as a result of a family move made the most gains on a standard test of attention. Using nature to improve focus of attention ought to pay off academically, and it seems to, according to a study led by
41、C. Kenneth Tanner, head of the School Design & Planning Laboratory at the University of Georgia. Tanner and his team found that students in classrooms with unblocked views of at least 50 feet outside the window had higher scores on tests of vocabulary, language arts and maths than did students whose
42、 classrooms primarily overlooked roads and parking lots. Recent study on room lighting design suggests than dim(暗淡的) light helps people to loosen up. If that is true generally, keeping the light low during dinner or at parties could increase relaxation. Researchers of Harvard Medical School also dis
43、covered that furniture with rounded edges could help visitors relax. So far scientists have focused mainly on public buildings. We have a very limited number of studies, so were almost looking at the problem through a straw(吸管), architect David Allison says. How do you take answers to very specific
44、questions and make broad, generalized use of them? Thats what were all struggling with. 42.What does Joan Meyers-Levy focus on in her research? A. Light. B. Ceilings. C. Windows. D. Furniture.43. The passage tells us that _. A. the shape of furniture may affect peoples feelings B. lower ceilings may
45、 help improve students creativity C. children in a dim classroom may improve their grades D. students in rooms with unblocked views may feel relaxed44.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means that _. A. the problem is not approached step by step B. the researches so far have faul
46、ts in themselves C. the problem is too difficult for researchers to detect D. research in this area is not enough to make generalized patterns45. Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?CP: Central Point P: Point SP: Sub-point C: Conclusion第四节 阅读理解七选五。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
