18、1分,满分20分)Tom was a middle-aged leather trader whose repeated failure in career made him a depressed man, often complaining that others had been playing tricks on him. One day he told his wife he was so 36 with the city that he had to leave.So his family moved to 37 city. It was in the evening of a w
19、eekend when Tom and his wife were busy 38 up their new home 39 the light suddenly went out. So they had to _40 work. Tom was regretful to have forgotten bringing along candles and had to wait 41 in a low mood. Just then he heard slight, hesitant knocks on his door that sounded clear in the 42 night.
20、“Whos it?” he wondered, since Tom had no 43 in the new city. And this was the moment he especially disliked being disturbed. 44 , he went reluctantly to the door and opened it impatiently. At the door was a little girl, shyly asking, “Sir, do you have 45 ? Im your neighbor.” “No,” answered Tom in an
21、ger and shut the door violently. “What a nuisance!” he complained over it with his wife. “No sooner had we settled down 46 the neighbor came to 47 things.” After a while, the door was knocked 48 . He opened it and found the same girl outside. But this time she was holding two candles, saying, “My gr
22、andma told me the new neighbor downstairs might need candles. She 49 me here to give you these.”Tom was very 50 by what he saw. When he became fully aware, he said, “Thank you and your _51 . God bless you!”At that moment he suddenly realized what caused his 52 in life. It was his 53 and harshness(刻薄

Every morning, her ten-year-old boy puts up one finger with his eyes still closed, begging for one more min
30、ute to sleep.Why is he so sleepy? Because, like thousands of student “early birds” in China, he has to get up before 6 a.m. every morning.School students usually need eight to ten hours sleep a night. But in Shanghai, its reported that 90% of the students do not get enough sleep. And studies show th
31、at without a good nights sleep, students seem to be weaker than they should be. Many become near-sighted as a result.Li Ming, a student at Qinghua High School, said that he usually goes to bed after 11 p.m. But when he has exams coming up, he can stay up as late as midnight. This “night bird” lifest
32、yle has made many students nod off in class. Li Ming said that it is during afternoon classes that he feel most sleepy. “My parents are usually happy to see me studying so late,” he said. “They think I work very hard and they make me cups of coffee.”However, not all parents are happy about this. “My
33、 daughter gets up so early. She looks tired and it really hurts me.” said one of the parents. Why dont so many students get enough sleep? Now many members of society began to think about it.60. Why did the ten-year-old boys mother talk about waking up her son with tears in her eyes?A. Because her so
34、ns lack of sleep hurt her but she had to wake him up.B. Because her son wasnt good at lessons.C. Because she thought her son was too lazy. D. Because her son was badly ill.61.

All the parents hope their children stay up.B. No students complain about their lack of sleep.C. Most students watch TV or play
36、computer games deep into night.D. Some parents are worried about the fact that most of the students dont have enough sleep.CIf Confucius(孔子)were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. Hed need a fan or a strong wind to help h
37、im put them out. While many people in China will remember Confucius on this special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. Its nothing personal. Most Americans dont even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes. But this doesnt mean that Americans dont care
38、about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China. In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius
39、 Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantages of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up f
40、or the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to un
41、derstand their Chinese customers. So the old thinkers ideas are still alive and well. Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West. As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even
42、 if his birthday is. 64. The opening (开始的)paragraph is mainly intended to _A. provide some key facts about ConfuciusB. attract the readers interest in the subjectC. show great respect for the ancient thinkerD. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations65. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that
43、 American students_A. have a great interest in studying Chinese B. take an active part in Chinese competitionsC. try to get high scores in Chinese exams D. fight for a chance to learn Chinese66. The passage is likely to appear in _. A. a biography B. a history paper C. a newspaper D. a philosophy te
44、xtbookDAsk someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of tha
45、t over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place. The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical households waste in the UK. In many supermarket
46、s nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenho
47、use effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this can
48、not continue , encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. B
49、ut is also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we
50、have a mountain to climb.67. What does the underlined phrase “over-consumption” refer to?A. Using too much packaging.B. Recycling too many wastes.C. Making more products than necessary.D. Having more material than is needed.68. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _.A. the tendency of cutt
51、ing household wasteB. the increase of packaging recyclingC. the rapid growth of super markets D. the fact of packaging overuse69. According to the text, recycling _.A. helps control the greenhouse effect B. means burning packaging for energyC. is the solution to gas shortage D. leads to a waste of l
52、and70. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Fighting wastefulness is difficult. B. Needless material is mostly recycled.C. People like collecting recyclable waste.D. The author is proud of their consumer culture.第卷 ( 非选择题 共35分)第五部分 任务型阅读 (共10小题, 每小题1分, 共10分) Getting married can be one of the
