24、将该项涂黑。 AIts common for parents to feel emotional when the moment comes for their child to leave home and go to university. Even parents who dont speak about the event are likely to feel a sense of sadness because its the end of an era where you and your family were at the centre of your childs world
25、. As a parent youll probably continue to support your child in different ways, but the main job of raising your child is over. Its a huge change for everyone involved. There are a few things that you can do to make the transition easier. Plan carefully for your childs departure and think about how y
26、ou can help. Many parents take their child to university for the first time. If you decide to do that, be ready to feel a real wrench when the time comes to say goodbye. Your child will probably be as nervous as you are about the moment when you finally say goodbye but that might not show! Be positi
27、ve and cheerful about the choice your child has made to continue studying, and plan to leave once youve unpacked the car and looked around your childs new living accommodations. If you can, save your tears for the car youll make things easier on your child and yourself. The more youve invested in be
28、ing a parent, the more youll feel a sense of loss, so the sadness you feel now is a sign that youve been a good mom or dad. Remind yourself that parenting is all about raising an independent and confident child who functions well without you. If your child quickly settles and starts enjoying himself
29、, you should congratulate yourself. Its also only fair to allow yourself some time to grieve（悲痛）. Dont expect to pick yourself up and move on straight away. But you may decide to find a hobby or sport to fill your extra time. Perhaps youve always wanted to learn a new language, go to yoga classes or
30、 take up swimming. You may decide to spend more time with family and close friends, who are likely to be feeling the absence of your child as well. Agree on the best approach to staying in touch before your child leaves, and stick to your agreement. Try not to panic if your child doesnt respond imme
31、diately remember, theyre starting a new and busy life. 51. Why do parents feel sad when their child leaves home for college?A. Because the absence of their child makes them feel lonely.B. Because their children will start a new life in college.C. Because it means the end of love between parents and
32、their child.D. Because they are no longer the main focus of their childrens life.52. The underlined word “wrench” in Paragraph 2 means a feeling of _.A. sorrow B. regret C. anger D. love53. Whats not advised as the way to recover from your childs departure?A. Developing a new hobby or sport. B. Lear
33、ning a new language.C. Spending more time with close friends. D. Staying in touch with your child.54. What would be an appropriate title for the whole passage?A. Staying in Touch with Your Child B. Preparing to Say Goodbye to Your Child C. Dealing with Your Child Leaving Home for University D. Life
34、after Your Child Has Left Home for University B There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic. At present, we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the problem is actually
35、worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing(制造业) and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may
36、be affected by air pollution. Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels (coal and oil) is creating a “greenhouse effect” hold in heat reflected from the earth and raising the worlds average temperature. If this
37、view is correct and the worlds temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap(极区冰层) will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be in water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight
38、and lowering the earths temperature a result that would be equally disastrous(引起灾难的). A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. Today we do not know for sure that either of these co
39、nditions will happen (though one recent government report concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible). Perhaps, if we are lucky enough, the two tendencies will offset (相互抵消) each other and the worlds temperature will stay about the same as it is now. Driven by economic profits, people pay
40、 less attention to the damage on our environment caused by the “advanced civilization”. Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development. But is it really worthwhile?55. As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution _.A
41、. had a damaging effect on health B. caused widespread damage in the countrysideC. existed only in urban and industries areasD. affected the entire eastern half of the United States56. As to the greenhouse effect, the author _.A. is uncertain of its cause B. refuses to admit as a problemC. shares th
42、e same view with the scientist D. thinks that it will destroy the world soon57. It can be concluded that _.A. temperature almost hasnt changed over the past decade. B. the worlds temperature will remain the same in the years to come. C. raising the worlds temperature only a few degrees would not do
43、much harm to life on earth. D. lowering the worlds temperature only a few degrees would lead to disaster to farming. 58. This passage is mainly about _.A. the greenhouse effect B. the burning of fossil fuelsC. the potential effect of air pollutionD. the likelihood of a new ice ageCWhen families gath
44、er for Christmas dinner, some will stick to formal traditions dating back to grandmas generation. Their tables will be set with the good dishes and silver, and the dress code will be Sunday best. But in many other homes, this china-and-silver elegance has given way to a stoneware (粗陶) and stainless
45、informality, with dresses assuming an equally casual-Friday look. For hosts and guests, the change means greater simplicity and comfort. For makers of fine china in Britain, it spells economic hard times. Last week Royal Doulton, the largest employer in Stoke-on-Trent, announced that it is eliminati
46、ng 1,000 jobs - one-fifth of its total workforce. That brings to more than 4, 000 the number of positions lost in 18 months in the pottery (陶瓷) region. Wedgwood and other pottery factories made cuts earlier. Although a strong pound and weak markets in Asia play a role in the downsizing, the layoffs
47、in Stoke have their roots in earthshaking social shifts. A spokesman for Royal Doulton admitted that the company has been somewhat slow in catching up with the trend toward casual dining. Families eat together less often, he explained, and more people eat alone, either because they are single or the
48、y eat in front of television. Even dinner parties, if they happen at all, have gone casual. In a time of long work hours and demanding family schedules, busy hosts insist, rightly, that its better to share a takeout pizza on paper plates in the family room than to wait for the perfect moment or a re
49、al dinner party. Too often, the perfect moment never comes. Iron a fine-patterned tablecloth? Forget it. Polish the silver? Who has time? Yet the loss of formality has its down side. The fine points of etiquette (礼节) that children might once have learned at the table by observation or instruction fr
50、om parents and grandparents ( Chew with your mouth closed.Keep your elbows off the table. ) must be picked up else-where. Some companies now offer etiquette seminars for employees who may be able professionally but inexperienced socially.59. Why do people tend to follow the trend to casual dining?A.
51、 Family members need more time to relax.B. Busy schedules leave people no time for formality.C. People prefer to live a comfortable life.D. Young people wont follow the etiquette of the older generation.60. It can be learned from the passage that Royal Doulton is . A. a seller of stainless steel tab
52、leware B. a dealer in stoneware C. a pottery chain store D. a producer of fine China61. The main cause of the layoffs in the pottery industry is . A. the increased value of the pound B. the worsening economy in Asia C. the change in peoples way of life D. the fierce competition at home and abroad62.
53、 Formal table manners, though less popular than before in current social life,_.A. are still a must on certain occasionsB. are certain to return sooner or laterC. are still being taught by parents at homeD. can help improve personal relationships DAs an experienced photojournalist in Nashville, Tenn
54、essee, I was hired by USA Today newspaper to photograph a spinal bifida (脊柱畸形) corrective surgical procedure. It was to be performed on a twenty-one week old fetus（胎儿）in uterus（子宫）at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. At that time, in 1999, twenty-one weeks in uterus was the earliest that the sur
55、gical team would consider for surgery. The worst possible outcome would be that the surgery（外科手术） would cause premature delivery(早产), and no child born earlier than twenty-three weeks had survived. The tension could be felt in the operating room as the surgery began. A typical C-section cut was made
56、 to access the uterus, which was then lifted out and laid at the junction of the mothers thighs（大腿）. The entire procedure would take place within the uterus, and no part of the child was to breach the surgical opening. During the procedure, the position of the fetus was adjusted by gently moving the
57、 outside of the uterus. The entire surgical procedure on the child was completed in one hour and thirteen minutes. When it was over, the surgical team breathed a sigh of relief, as did I. As a doctor asked me what speed of film I was using, out of the corner of my eye I saw the uterus shake, but no
58、ones hands were near it. It was shaking from within. Suddenly, an entire arm thrust out of the opening, then pulled back until just a little hand was showing. The doctor reached over and lifted the hand, which reacted and squeezed the doctors finger. As if testing for strength, the doctor shook the
59、tiny fist. Samuel held firm. I took the picture! Wow! It happened so fast that the nurse standing next to me asked, “What happened?” “The child reached out,” I said. “Oh. They do that all the time,” she responded. The surgical opening to the uterus was closed and the uterus was then put back into th
60、e mother and the C-section opening was closed. It was ten days before I knew if the picture was even in focus (对焦). To ensure no digital manipulation (篡改) of images before they see them, USA Today requires that film be submitted unprocessed. When the photo editor finally phoned me he said, “Its the
61、most incredible picture Ive ever seen.”63. What may be the best title for the passage?A. An Amazing Moment B. A Pitiful FetusC. An Honorable Job as a Photographer D. An Impressive Surgeon64. In 1999, people believed that it was _.A. possible for a fetus 21 weeks born to survive B. likely for a fetus
62、 born 21 weeks to become abnormalC. right time for a fetus born 21 weeks to receive an operationD. risky for a fetus 21 weeks in uterus to receive an operation65. From what the editor said in the last paragraph, we know he was very _. A. disappointed B. satisfied C. confident D. depressed第四部分：阅读表达（共

As they know, everyone has strengths as well as weaknesses. Although they are not good at
81、lessons, they might do well in other fields like sports or arts. Therefore, they can learn form each other and they may develop a friendship. In addition, top students can help slower ones gain self-confidence by helping them with their lessons, which benefits them all.However, others dont hold the
82、same view. They think some slower students are always making trouble, such as keeping talking in class, breaking school rules, which may lead to them forming the bad habits. Besides, slower students often ask top students questions, which has a bad effect on their studies.In my opinion, I would like
83、 to choose to share a desk with a slower student so that we can learn from each and make progress together Yours, LiPing(Text 1)M: How did you enjoy your three-week tour of Africa?W: Oh, I just loved every minute of it.(Text 2)M: This cake is delicious.
