Yet mother would say, “Hold your head up high and 49 the world.” She started when I was young. “If you do so, people will see your 50 soul.” She continued this message 51 I wanted to hide. Those words have meant 52 things to me over the yea
16、rs. As a 53 , I thought mama meant, “Be careful or you will 54 or bump into something because you are not looking.” As a youth, though I tried to look down to 55 my shame, I found sometimes when I held head up high and let people know me, they 56 me.

22、 passes away六、阅读理解（共15小题；共30分）A When I was young, I read many kinds of books, including fairy tales. Most of the books described heroes who were handsome and heroines who were beautiful. So, I believed I had to be beautiful if I wanted to become a great person. As I grew up, I began to realize outer
23、 beauty was not so important to make someone good. I remember a friend of mine, Janie, who was so beautiful that every classmate wanted to talk with her, but she was very arrogant(傲慢的). She believed that she could do everything she wanted because she was so beautiful, but she lost friends one by one
24、. My poor friend! But she learned a good lesson: inner beauty is more important than outer beauty. After she learned that, she changed her attitude and made friends again. Whenever I see TV advertisements, I feel that these things make us believe beauty is very importantespecially physical attractiv
25、eness. Although we say that inner beauty is more valuable, we often look to plastic surgery to make us more beautiful. There seems to be a boom(流行) in plastic surgery. It is surprising to realize the number of people who try it is increasing day by day. We know good-looking guys usually get higher s
26、cores on job interviews. So, what is real beauty? I want to say that inner beauty is the real one because if someone has beauty in his soul, he looks like a really beautiful person. The beauty looked at with eyes doesnt last forever. Instead of concentrating on outer beauty, we should concentrate on
27、 inner beauty. The point is that inner beauty is more important than outer beauty. So, if we make the effort to make our minds beautiful, well be happier.66. When the author was young, she thought if she wanted to succeed, .A. she must have good looksB. she must learn from the heroesC. she had to wo
28、rk hard at her lessonsD. she had to read many kinds of books67. Why did Janie lose friends one by one?A. Because she was too shy.B. Because she wouldnt take their advice.C.

30、ner Beauty Is the Real BeautyB Of the several films Hirokazu has made about childhood and children, this one is the most modest, but no less pleasing for its delicate style and small setting. I Wish was originally called Miracle, and the change is for the better. The two-word title makes you want to
31、 know whos wishing for what, while the single word sounds plain and self-praising. This wise and funny film works small miracles in describing such a moment when kids turn from the wishfulness of childhood into shaping the world for themselves. The sweetly reflective hero, a sixth-grader named Koich
32、i, starts out by wishing for a volcano to erupt. Not just any volcano, but the one that towers above his town, smoking heavily and giving off ash. An eruption would lead to a withdrawing, which would lead, at least in his mind, to a reunion with his father and kid brother, whove been living in Hakat
33、a while Koichi lives with his mother and retired grandparents in Kagoshima. The volcano, knowing nothing of this, refuses to erupt, but Koichi hears of another approach to realizing the desired miracle. One of the pleasures of I Wish is watching how kids behavehow Koichi attacks his dinner, for exam
34、ple. Another pleasure is rediscovering how kids think. These kids can be logical and ever so tricky. But childrens thought processes can also be fancy. A boy wishes he could play baseball like one of baseball stars, who eats curry for breakfast; so he, too, starts eating curry for breakfast, instead
35、 of practicing on the field. Another boy tries to wish his dead dog, Marble, back to life. And what does Koichi finally wish for? I wish youd see this delightful film to find out.70. Why has the name of the film been changed from Miracle to I Wish?A. The former is controversial and self-praising.B.
36、The former isnt related to the content of the film.C. The latter is easy for audience to remember.D. The latter is easier to arouse audiences interest.71.

39、opdevelops from the Delta blues. Its words gave voice to the lives of workers in the fields of the Deep South. The blues may have something to do with sadness, but singing it is an act of defiance, not despair(绝望). The blues reminds us of our weak points while encouraging us to see how far we can ac
40、tually go. We can still almost touch the origin of this art form. Looking back on the journey the blues took north up the Mississippi River-when African Americans left the South in search of new jobs-photographer Gail Mooney travelled from Chicago clubs down to the Delta to get the stories of blues
41、men and blues women. They are still here today to link us to the musics early days. In our conversations, we talked so much more about other things than their music, says Mooney, whose exhibition of the blues has just begun a US tour this spring. We talked about their childhoods, their cultural orig
42、in, and a time in America when people moved to live in large cities. I would listen, and sometimes I would get a feeling. These photos show some of the musicians who worked and studied with blues pioneersdrummer Sam Carr was the son of Robert Nighthawk, while Pinetop Perkins and Willie Big Eyes Smit
43、h played together with Muddy Waters. Already, this generation is leaving us: Little Milton, guitarist and vocalist, and Robert Junior Lockwood (who learned from Robert Johnson, the greatest blues man of all) have passed away since Mooney began her project. However, they left many valuable things to
44、us. Turn on your radio and some little piece of the Delta gets passed down again.74. From the passage we know that the blues .A. contains many kinds of musicB. aims to give people sad feelingsC. was created by workersD. described the lives of workers75.

45、obably means .A. being againstB. creationC. being carefulD. kindness76. Why did Mooney travel from Chicago clubs down to the Delta?A. To learn to play the blues.B. To find the origin of the blues.C. To take more beautiful photos.D. To learn about different cultures.D Reading poems is not exactly an
46、everyday activity for most people. In fact, many people never read a poem once they get out of high school. It is worth reminding ourselves that this has not always been the case in America. In the nineteenth century, a usual American activity was to sit around the fireside in the evening and read p
47、oems aloud. It is true that there was no television at the time, nor movie theaters, nor World Wide Web, to provide diversion. However, poems were a source of pleasure, of self-education, of connection to other people or to the world beyond ones own community. Reading them was a social act as well a
48、s an individual one, and perhaps even more social than individual. Writing poems to share with friends and relations was, like reading poems by the fireside, another way in which poetry has a place in everyday life. How did things change? Why are most Americans no longer comfortable with poetry, and
49、 why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and that they can do well without poems? There are, I believe, three culprits(肇事者): poets, teachers, and we ourselves. Of these, the least important is the third: the world surrounding the poem has betrayed us more than we have bet
50、rayed the poem. Early in the twentieth century, poetry in English headed into directions unfavorable to the reading of poetry. Readers decided that poems were not for the fireside or the easy chair at night, that they belonged where other difficult-to-read things belonged. Poets failed the reader, s
51、o did teachers. They want their students to know something about the skills of a poem, they want their students to see that poems mean something. Yet what usually occurs when teachers push these concerns on their high school students is that young people decide poems are unpleasant crossword puzzles
52、.77. Reading poems is thought to be a social act in the nineteenth century because .A. it built a link among peopleB. it helped unite a communityC. it was a source of self-educationD. it was a source of pleasure78. The underlined word diversion (in Paragraph 2) most probably means .A. concentrationB
53、. changeC. amusementsD. stories79. According to the passage, what is the main cause of the great gap between readers and poetry?A. Students are becoming less interested in poetry.B. Students are poorly educated in high school.C. TV and the Internet are more attractive than poetry.D. Poems have becom
