There is no doubt that many schools must be located near to your
21、neighborhood area that provides good education to your children.However, you need to do a little research about the lessons of various schools so that you can be sure that your children are also following path as you have been since your childhood. Besides public and private schools, there are Chris
22、tian schools that teach knowledge about Christianity along with the school lessons. A parent can compare between all the schools and their decision will depend entirely on their beliefs, thinking and neighborhood area. The main focus of Christian schools is religion and you can send your children to
23、 such schools if you want to focus on religion in your childs life. Every person has his own priority(优先考虑) and no one can force anyone with their own personal beliefs. If you feel that your child is not able to gain the right principles in other schools, then you can consider Christian schools for
24、the right education of your children. There are Christian elementary schools that focus on reading, writing and arithmetic so as to strengthen the primary skills in children.These schools take students from pre-school to high school to make them prepare for handling all types of situations in the fu
25、ture. So, use Internet to search a good school that help your child to have a better and brighter future.36. Parents who choose schools for their children mainly depend on the following factors EXCEPT_. A. schools decisionB. their thinkingC. neighborhood areaD. their beliefs37. Christian schools dif
26、fer from public and private schools in that_. A. they offer free school lessonsB. they offer different school lessons C. their main focus is religionD. they offer a brighter future38.

A. a newspaperB. a magazineC. a textbookD. the InternetBWilliam lived with his parents and seven sisters in a small clay house without electricity or running water. Like
28、 most boys in his village, William was expected to assist his parents on the family farm, as well as keep up with his school work.However, in 2003 at the age of 13, William and many other children were forced to drop out of school when their parents could no longer afford his schooling. William had
29、to work even harder to help his family, but he wasnt ready to give up his education. He went to the local library and took out some books to study. One book, called Using Energy, sparked Williams interest in science and gave him an idea that significantly changed his future.In the book, William foun
30、d a picture of a windmill (风车), and a brief description of how it could be used to generate electricity from wind. He knew that there was plenty of wind in his village, and realized that if he could build a windmill like that, he could give his family and the people in his village a much better life
31、. There was just one problem. The book didnt explain how to build a windmill, and neither did any of the other books in the library.What happened over the next year demonstrated Williams incredible ambition and determination. He began to collect any kinds of materials he thought could be useful scra
32、ps of wood, broken bicycles, old shoes and started to build a windmill next to his familys house. He endured many challenges and failures. Other people in his village called him crazy and said his idea would never work. Finally, at the age of 14, William completed his first windmill. When they saw e
33、lectric lights and heard the sound of music on the radio coming from Williams house, the village people came running. He had done it. His autobiography (自传), The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind tells the story of how the rest of the world came to know about his achievements. With the help of internationa
34、l supporters, his village now has clean running water, solar powered lighting, and electric power. As a result of his actions, William was invited to study engineering at Dartmouth College, one of the top-ranking universities in the U. S. He also travels the world and gives talks about how he made h
35、is dream a reality.40. William went to the local library because .A. he wanted to continue his education B. it was his favorite way to kill time and relaxC. it was believed to be a way to change his fate D. he wanted to find some materials for his invention41.

36、e windmill is so attractive B. how William got inspired by a bookC. why William decided to continue his education D. how a windmill works to produce electricity42.

37、rs are greatly encouraged by WilliamC. Williams autobiography is locally popular D. it has received much outside help43. What is the message conveyed in the passage?A. We should strike while the iron is hot. B. A good beginning makes a good end.C. One who lives his dream can make a difference. D. Yo
38、ud better not put all the eggs in one basket.CMany people in high school cannot wait to go to college and leave their hometown behind. Questions arise, though, when it comes to all of the decisions involved in choosing a college.One of the first considerations may be finance. State and public colleg
39、es are often the least expensive. Often, though, the better colleges are private and more expensive. It is sad when gifted students cannot attend a college of their choice just for financial reasons.Another major factor is location. Whether the college is in a small town or large city can have a maj
40、or impact on its activities. A water lover probably will be more comfortable spending four years near an ocean or a lake. Those who cannot tolerate heat will probably be more comfortable at a northern college. Distance from home may also come into consideration. If family is a top priority, that per
41、son should stay close to home; on the other hand, if independence is desired, a campus farther from home would be more appropriate.School size also plays a major role in the decision process. If you want to get to know your teachers, a small college is suitable. For those of you who consider yoursel
42、f a “ people person” and want a wide range of activities, a large college is more fitting. Your area of interest is another factor to consider in the decision-making process if you want to get the most from your education. The whole point of college is to learn what is of interest to you.Crucially(至
43、关重要地), one must take into consideration the colleges by which you can realistically be accepted. An Ivy League school for an average student would probably not be a good match. Similarly, an average school for an above-average student would not work well. The college should provide enough of a chall
44、enge for the student to work hard. Although there may not be the perfect college out there, there probably will be one that is close. Those who cannot find a suitable college are probably not looking hard enough.44. When it comes to going to college the author thinks _.A. financial situation is the
45、first to consider B. students are unwilling to leave their homeC. students will become homesick D. students are eager to attend their ideal university45.

46、on of the college is a main factor. D. The climate must be taken into consideration.46. What does the underlined part “ people person” in the passage mean? A. A person of great capacity. B. A very particular person. C. A person of great importance. D. A very sociable person. 47. Which is the most im
47、portant factor when choosing a college? A. The location of a college. B. The examination result. C. School size. D. The coming challenges.DOne of my best friends flew down from Alaska to celebrate her 40th birthday with me. We explored the countryside with no real agenda or constraint. The grand fin
48、ale (压轴戏) was a beautiful outdoor dinner filled with memorable conversation and laughter. We headed out on the one-and-a-half-hour mountain pass drive in the pitch dark, still engaged in deep conversation.About 45 miles from home, I noticed the low fuel light was on, and I looked on my cars computer
49、 to see that we had one mile until we were out of fuel. Oh, no! How could I have forgotten to check before heading out of the town? I didnt want to alarm my friend, and didnt interrupt her story. I started praying and told myself to keep calm.Running out of fuel on this route would have been truly c
50、atastrophic at 10:30 p.m. It is incredibly dark and rugged（崎岖的）, and theres not a lot of traffic. There are no towns, few people, and definitely no petrol stations. My mind raced as I considered the tragic possibilities.I finally calmly told my friend about our situation. She started strategizing ab
51、out what we would do and how we could call my husband, Steve, but I didnt want him to have to get our three children out of bed. There was the tow truck option, but we would have to be on the side of the road in the middle of the wilderness for at least 45 minutes! All of the options were truly terr
52、ible.She was nervous, and all I could do was constantly tell her I was certain we would make it. Sure enough, we did. We literally made it over 40 miles with no fuel, and I know that my cars fuel measurement system is pretty accurate. Now, there is the logical part of my brain, trying to make excuse
53、s for the situation and the car and every other possible option. But inside, I heard the truth: we experienced a miracle.48. From the first paragraph, we can infer that the author and her friend _.A. had a serious conversation in the car B. hadnt seen each other for a long timeC. were enjoying thems

When the author first found they were almost out of fuel, she_.A. told her friend instantly B. secretly tried to keep calmC. made a phone call to the police D. tried to find a petrol station nearby50.

55、robably mean in the third paragraph?A. terrible B. nervous.C. harmful.D. unexpected.51. What would be the best title for the passage?A. A Memorable Birthday B. Miracles Can Happen C. A Deep Conversation with Ones Best Friend D. Heading Out of the TownESilence is unnatural to man. He begins life with
56、 a cry and ends it in stillness. In between he does all he can to make a noise in the world, and he feats silence more than anything else. Even his conversation is an attempt to prevent a fearful silence. If he is introduced to another person, and a number of pauses occur in the conversation, he reg
57、ards himself as a failure, a worthless person, and is full of envy of the emptiest headed chatterbox (喋喋不休的人). He knows that ninety-nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly, but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure
58、 (蜡塑人像). The aim of conversation is not, for the most part, to communicate ideas; it is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are, it must be admitted, different qualities of buzz; there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito (蚊子). But at a dinner party one would
59、 rather be a mosquito than a quiet person. Most buzzing, fortunately, is pleasant to the ear, and some of it is pleasant even to the mind. He would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbors. Those who hate to pick up the weather as a con
60、versational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk. Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new. Some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other peoples ears, though they have nothing to tel
61、l them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel At the end of an evening during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time, they just prove themselves to be successful conversationists .52. According to the author, people make conversation
62、 to _ A. exchange ideas B.prove their valueC. achieve success in life D. overcome their fear of silence53. By the buzzing of a fly (Para. 1）, the author means_” A. meaningless talks B. a low whispering sound C.the noise of an insect D. the voice of a chatterbox54. According to the passage, people us
63、ually talk to their neighbors _. A. about whatever they have prepared B. in the hope of getting on well C. in the hope of learning something new D. about whatever they want to55. What is the authors purpose in writing the passage? _. A. To discuss why people like talking about weather. B. To encoura
64、ge people to join in conversations. C.To explain why people keep talking. D. To persuade people to stop making noises.四、写作（共两个写作任务，满分35分）写作一（满分15分）请结合材料，按要求用英文写作，词数不少于60。 Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Imagination alows us to free ourselves from
67、 the limits of our body and it can take us where our feet wont. Imagination is to man what fuel is to cars. Without imagination, we wont be able to explore the unknown and the world will be colorless.Great inventions that change the course of human history often begin with imagination, for example,
68、planes. The Wright brothers had imagined flying like birds ever since they were young. Never losing sight of their dream, they finally succeeded. Admittedly, other qualities also play an important role. It is imagination that starts all this.Sadly, our imagination doesnt necessarily keep pace with o
69、ur knowledge. Some students gradually lose the ability to imagine in the endless homework and exams. However, I firmly hold the belief that imagination is a pair of wings that God lend us and should be cherished. 第二节 书面表达Green life style is becoming increasingly popular nowadays as it can help to re

Besides, I always keep it in my mind to turn off lights before leaving.

Well be moving a step closer to a green life day by day.
