18、每小题2分,满分40分)AI was fifteen months old, a happy carefree kid until the day I fell. It was a bad fall. I landed on a glass rabbit which cut my eye badly enough to blind it. Trying to save the eye, the doctors stitched(缝合) the eyeball together where it was cut, leaving a bit ugly scar in the middle of
19、my eye. As I grew, this sightless eye in so many ways controlled me.I walked with my face looking at the floor so people would not see the ugly scar. Sometimes people, even strangers, asked my embarrassing questions or made hurtful remarks. When the kids played games, I was always the “monster(怪物)”.
20、Yet mother would say to me, “If you hold your head up high, it will be okay, and people will see your beautiful soul.” She continued this message whenever I wanted to hide.Those words have meant different things to me over the years. I found that sometimes when I held my head up high and let people
21、know me, they liked me. My mothers words helped me begin to realize that by letting people look at my face, I let them recognize the intelligence and beauty behind both my eyes even if they couldnt see it on the surface.41. How did the writer feel when he acted as” monster” in the kids games? A. Hap
22、py. B. Painful. C. Proud. D. Great.42. What does the writer mean by saying the underlined sentence? A. He couldnt see things clearly because one of his eyes was blind. B. Because one of his eyes was sightless, he couldnt live with other children. C. He had not the same rights as others because of hi
23、s sightless eye. D. His sightless eye affected his life greatly.43. Which is the best title for the passage? A. A Disabled Boys Childhood B. A Kind Mothers Love C. Hold Your Head up High D. A Successful Way of a Blind ManBNews stories about Hurricane Katrina have talked about the human victims(受害者)
24、trying to survive along the heavily damaged U.S. Gulf Coast. But rescue efforts are also aimed at the thousands of dogs, cats, and other animals that are on their own after the storm. Many pets are without their owners because some rescue workers and shelters have denied taking pets for a variety of
25、 reasons. Several organizations are trying to save these stranded(无依无靠的) animals. The Humane Society of the United States is asking for more help from police in the affected regions “to save the thousands of stranded and abandoned pets still out there.” Many ordinary citizens are also responding to
26、the call for aid. Jeff Eyre, a volunteer with the Humane Society, saved a pig near Interstate 10 in New Orleans and took the animal to a facility for lost pets. Volunteers have saved “more than 1,200 animals” from Louisiana and Mississippi, according to the Humane Society. These include “dogs, cats,
27、 ferrets, horses, chinchillas, as well as a rabbit, duck, pot-bellied pig, and seal.”The Humane Society has also been doing mass rescues of animals. When a large kennel(狗窝) in Mississippi was damaged, the dogs were trapped behind the wreckage(残留物). “We chain-sawed our way through to the doors,” said
28、 volunteer Kyle Held. Helds team managed to save more than 75 dogs from the kennel. 44. The best title for the passage should be _ . A. Stories behind Hurricane Katrina B. The Humane Society Rescuing Pets C. Pets: The Other Hurricane Victims D. Pets Survive in Hurricane Katrina45. According to the p
29、assage, the Humane Society did the following EXCEPT _ . A. encouraging volunteers to rescue pets in trouble B. looking into the loss of Hurricane Katrina C. demanding help from the local police D. providing more aid for animals as well as people 46.

30、d was able to save over 75 dogs from the kennel B.

According to the passage, chinchillas are a kind of _ . A. flowers B. anim
31、als C. trees D. dogsCIf you dont want people to know too much about you, then you had better keep your fridge contents secret according to a British market research document released last week.Researchers peered(凝视) into the fridges of 400 people in Britain and compared the contents with the owners
32、lifestyles. They claim to be able to classify the nations people by fridge contents.They say those people can be separated into five categories: “nutrition nerds (no social sense)”, “food faddish (whatevers in style)”, “martyr mums”, “fast food fanatics” and “restaurant regulars”.“Nutrition nerds” c
33、are much about what they put into their bodies. Their fridges are stocked with fruit, vegetables and healthy meat. People in this category tend to be highly organized and usually work in law or accountancy. The vast majority are single, but if they have a partner, that person will be similar.A fridg
34、e full of vitamins-enriched juices implies its owner works in media or fashion. They tend not to eat the foods they buy. Known as the “food faddish”, they just want to be seen as purchasing the latest important things.A fridge filled with everything from steak to frozen fish suggests the “martyr mum
35、”. Her fridge tends to be stocked with every kind of product, except what she herself would want. This fridge hints at difficulty balancing family and work life.“Fast food fanatics” always buy mineral water for soda pop; the nearest they will get to fresh fruit is tomato sauce. Their fridges hint at
36、 some-one who works hard and plays hard. Also, someone who is not into long-term planning.Finally, a fridge filled with nothing more than a bottle of white wine and some sparkling mineral water implies an owner who is single, lives in a big city and enjoys the finer things in life. The fridge is emp
37、ty because this person regularly eats in restaurants.48. We can know from the first two paragraphs that _ . A. some researchers are fond of staring at other peoples fridges B. people dont want others to know about their secrets C. the food you put in the fridge has something to do with your personal
38、ity D. there are mainly five kinds of lifestyles among British people49. According to the passage, people who belong to “food faddiest” _ . A. dont care much about money when buying things B. will try their best to stay healthy C. often stay up late to finish their job D. prefer to ask others about
39、what to do next50. What will those who often dine out put in the fridge? A. All kinds of food they like. B. Only something to drink. C. Fruit, vegetables and meat. D. Food rich in vitamins.51. What might be the most suitable title for the passage ? A. Keep your fridge a secret B. You are whats in yo
40、ur fridge C. What to put in the fridge? D. Be careful about your fridgeDAre you happy? Do you remember a time when you were happy? Are you seeking happiness today?Many have sought a variety of sources for their feelings of happiness. Some have put their heart and effort into their work. Some have tu
41、rned to drugs and alcohol. Most of their efforts have a root in one common fact: People are looking for a lasting source of happiness.Unfortunately, I believe that happiness escapes many because they misunderstand the process and journey of finding it. I have heard many people say that, “Ill be happ
42、y when I get my new promotion.” Or “Ill be happy when I lose that extra 20 pounds.” The list goes on and on. You probably have a few of your own, you could add if you wanted.This thinking is dangerous because it presupposes that happiness is a “response” to having, being or doing something. In life,
43、 we all experience stimulus and response. Stimulus is when a dog barks at you and bares his teeth. Response is when your heart beats faster, your palms get sweaty and you prepare to run. It has been my finding that actually the opposite is true. I believe that happiness is a stimulus and response is
44、 what life brings to those who are truly happy. When we are happy, we tend to have more success in our work. When we are happy, people want to be around us and enjoy loving relationships. When we are happy, we more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health. Happiness is NOT a re
45、sponse rather, it is a stimulus.Happiness is a conscious choice we make every day of our lives. For unknown reason to me, many choose to be painful, unsuccessful and angry most of the time. Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want we usually get things we want AFT
46、ER we choose to be happy.I have made only one simple rule for my own happiness: Every day above ground is a GOOD day. Therefore, I tend to have a lot of good (and happy) days continually.52. The second paragraph mainly tells us that people seek happiness _ . A. in the same wayB. in different ways C.
47、 by working hardD. by taking drugs53. What does the underlined phrase “This thinking” refer to? A. The thinking of being promoted. B. The giving up of happiness. C. The process and journey of finding happiness. D. The misunderstanding of happiness.54. The writer strongly believes that happiness is _
48、 . A. a responseB. a stimulus C. a great paying jobD. an expensive car55. The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _ . A. tell people how to enjoy happiness B. encourage people to seek happiness C. express his attitude towards happiness D. criticize the wrong ideas about happinessEIn
49、modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad, that it sets one person against another; and that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I ha
50、ve taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and -death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forg
51、otten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pres
52、sures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesnt matter because I really didnt try.” What is not us
53、ually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that ones self-
54、respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve(缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition.56. What does this passage mainly talk about? A. Competition helps to set up self-
55、respect. B. Opinions about competition are different among people. C. Competition is harmful to personal quality development. D. Failures are necessary experiences in competition.57. Why do some people favor competition according to the passage? A. It pushes society forward. B. It builds up a sense
56、of duty. C. It improves personal abilities. D. It encourages individual efforts.58. The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in paragraph 3 means . A. those who try their best to win B. those who value competition most highly C. those who are against competition most strongly D. those who rely on othe
57、rs most for success59. What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a “desire to fail”? A. Ones worth lies in his performance compared with others. B. Ones success in competition needs great efforts. C. Ones achievement is determined by his particular skills. D. Ones success is
58、based on how hard he has tried.60. Which point of view may the author agree to? A. Every effort should be paid back. B. Competition should be encouraged. C. Winning should be a life-and-death matter. D. Fear of failure should be removed in competition.第卷(第三部分,满分10分)第三部分:写作(共二节,满分10分)第一节:句型转换或同义句改写。(
