With that I could sponsor 18 200 needy children overseas into adulthood. With that I could buy 19 for 2.5 million starving people aroun
7、d the world. With that money I could do so much good, help so many souls, and still know the 20 whenever I looked down at my wrist.

17、were popular with both women and men. Today, high heels are strictly a female fashion that is easily found in stores. High heels are the hit items featured on the runway and are widely worn by celebrities. For instance, in the popular TV drama, Sex and the City, the main character, Carrie, is a love
18、r of high heels that in almost every episode, she purchases a pair of gorgeous 4-inch high heels. Carrie loves the heels so much that she even sets her email address as “shoe girl”. This clearly shows how much modern women love high heels.Even though high heels are popular, they are not the most com
19、fortable shoes to wear. In many ways, high heels have already changed the shape of peoples lives. Doctors have warned that continuous wear can cause back pain and serious damage to the knees. Though it is yet to be proven, some psychological reports suggest that high heels can lead to mental disorde
20、r, as it is stressful to the people who wear high heels, in the sense that they have to bear the pain in every step. According to Mayann Los Russo, chief editor of Footwear News, high heels are desirable because they make people appear taller. She says, “I think it goes back to the idea of pain befo
21、re beauty.” Indeed, some people feel that they always need to look appealing in front of their peers.Still, Dr. Casey Kerrigan, a professor at Harvard Medical School, warns, “It takes a long time to feel the effects. And once you do, its too late.” Despite the damage high heels can do to the feet an
22、d legs, they remain popular. Most women accept the pain because they like how they look wearing high heels. It is important that we all understand that we should never hurt ourselves just to please others.41. What is the passage mainly about?A. The trend of high heels.B. Women who wear high heels.C.
23、 The function of high heels.D. The effect of high heels on health.42. The underlined word “gorgeous” is the closest in meaning to _.A. expensive B. old C. beautiful D. famous43. From the passage, high heels change peoples lives by _.A. hurting their health B. making them look betterC. helping them g
24、row taller D. making their friends happy44. What does NOT make high heels popular?A. Famous TV shows. B. Reports from Footwear News.C. Models on the runway. D. Height added by the heels.45. People who believe in “pain before beauty” will _.A. watch Sex and the CityB. wear clothes that their peers li
25、keC. keep up with the trend D. wear pretty but uncomfortable fashion BNot long ago, people could only buy organic food in small shops. Today it is common in most major supermarkets. The reason for the increase is that more and more people are demanding food grown without chemicals. Since the 1990s,
26、organic farm production has gone up 20 percent every year. This pattern is expected to continue around the globe.Australia leads the world in land used for organic agriculture. It has four times as much land devoted to organic farming as all of Asia. However, most of the land is not very fertile, an
27、d it only produces a modest amount of food. Argentina is a distant second, followed by Brazil, the United States and China. In Africa, only a very small amount of land is registered for organic farming. That does not mean Africa relies on chemicals. In fact, many farmers do not use chemicals because
28、 they cannot afford them. Yet there are no programs for these farmers to prove they do not use chemicals. Without these programs their food can never be approved organic.India has had the most dramatic recent increase in organic farming. Like many other countries, India sees continual growth in orga
29、nic food sales around the world. This, of course, leads to growth in profits. Sales of organic food were more than doubled from 2000 to 2005. Like India, many countries are trying to increase commercial organic farming to get a share of the sales. This has led to criticism. Some people believe that
30、organic farming should not just be about making money. They think the goal is to help the environment. Others say organic farming will not continue if it is not profitable. They say that people should be able to make money while providing food that is healthy to mankind.46. What is the passage mainl
31、y about?A. Organic food has become much more common.B. People do not want to eat food with chemicals in it.C. Farming organically is growing around the world.D. Countries all want to make money by farming organically.47. The underlined word “dramatic” is the closest in meaning to _.A. gradual B. hug
32、e C. continuous D. slight48. Why do people want to increase organic farming?A. More and more people demand chemicals to grow food.B. Profits from organic farming help make approval programs.C. There are fewer chemicals available to the human beings.D. Organic food is good for the Earth and the human
33、 beings. 49. From the passage, it can be said that _.A. India uses the least land to farm organicallyB. the US is the fourth largest organic farming countryC. Brazil uses less land to farm organically than ChinaD. China and India have the same amount of organic farmland50. It can be inferred from th
34、e passage that _.A. people who eat food with chemicals have shorter lifespanB. India will soon become the largest grower of organic foodC. more countries will farm organically as the environment gets worseD. there will be fewer organic farms if demand for organic food goes downCAn “apple polisher” i
35、s one who gives gifts to win friendship or special treatment. It is not exactly a bribe (贿赂), but is close to it. All sorts of people are apple polishers, including politicians and people in high offices - just about everybody. Oliver Cromwell, the great English leader, offered many gifts to win the
36、 support ofGeorge Fox and his party, but failed. There are other phrases meaning the same thing as “apple-polishing”, “soft-soaping” or “buttering-up”. A gift is just one way to “soft-soap” somebody, or to “butter him up”. Another that is just as effective is flattery, giving someone high praise - t
37、elling him how good he looks, or how well he speaks, or how talented and wise he is. Endless are the ways of flattery. Who does not love to hear it? Only an unusual man can resist the thrill of being told how wonderful he is. In truth, flattery is good medicine for most of us, who get so little of i
38、t. We need it to be more sure of ourselves. It cannot hurt unless we get carried away by it. But if we just lap it up for its food value and nourishment, as a cat laps up (舔食) milk, then we can still remain true to ourselves. Sometimes, however, flattery will get you nothing from one who has had too
39、 much of it. A good example is the famous 12th century legend of King Canute of Denmark and England. The king got tired of listening to endless sickening flattery of his courtiers(朝臣). They overpraised him to the skies as a man of limitless might. He decided to teach them a lesson. He took them to t
40、he seashore and sat down. Then he ordered the waves to stop coming in. The tide was too busy to listen to him. The king was satisfied. This might show his followers how weak his power was and how empty their flattery was.51. Which of the following activities has nothing to do with “apple-polishing”?
41、A. A boy tells his girlfriend how pretty she looks.B. An employee tells her boss how good he is at management.C. A knight is said to be of limitless power by his followers.D. A teacher praises her students for their talent and wisdom.52. What does the writer want to prove with Cromwells example?A. E
42、verybody can be an apple-polisher.B. Cromwell was not a good apple-polisher.C. George Fox and his party were not apple-polishers.D. There are people who dont like being apple-polished.53. Which of the following statements about flattery is true according to the author?A. Too much flattery can carry
43、us away.B. Flattery is too empty to do people any good.C. Flattery can get you nothing but excessive(过度的) pride.D. Flattery is one of the ways to apple-polish people.54. King Canute of Denmark and England took his follows to the seashore because _.A. he was sick of his normal lifeB. he disliked bein
44、g overpraised any moreC. he wanted them to realize how wise he wasD. he wanted them to see how weak he was as a king55. The author thinks that flattery can do good to those who _.A. are politicians or in high offices B. lack confidenceC. are really excellent D. think highly of themselves第二节 七选五填空(共5

According to some, Jesus was crucified(十字架上钉死) on Friday making the combination of “Friday” and “13” particularly unlucky. 58 For example, people think it is unlucky to walk under ladders. 59 This b

So they sent for a doctor. Two days later, the doctor came and looked over the sick man. The doctor then asked for a pen
81、 and some paper to write down the name of the medicine but there was no pen or paper in the village because no one could write.The doctor picked up a piece of burnt wood from the fire and wrote the name of the medicine on the door of the house.“Get this medicine for him,” he said, “and he will soon
