22、USA, is in the central part of the state, on the Santa Fe River, which flows into the Rio Grands 35 kilometres west of the city. More than two thousand metres above sea level, it lies in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains with the Ortiz Mountains to the southeast. Santa Fe was founded in 1609 by the Spa
23、nish in an old Indian village. In 1680 the Indians seized the place but only held it for twelve years before the Spanish retook it. The city remained under Spanish rule until Mexico won its independence in 1821. From then on it was a Mexico city until 1846 when it was taken over by US troops. With a
24、 population of 48,953, Santa Fe is now the second largest city in the state. Because of its sunny weather, rich history and surrounding mountains, it is a good place for holiday makers. Besides hunting and skating in the mountains people enjoy shopping in the Indian and Spanish shops, which brings a

So are police officers Hankins and Pearson. These men and women d
28、ont look like giraffes; they look like you and me. Then, why do people call them “giraffes”?A giraffe, they say, is an animal that sticks its neck out, can see places far away and has a large heart. It lives a quiet life and moves about in an easy and beautiful way. In the same way, a “giraffe” can
29、be a person who likes to “stick his or her neck out” for other people, always watches for future happenings, has a warm heart for people around, and at the same time lives a quiet and beautiful life himself or herself.“The Giraffe Project” is a 10-year-old group which finds and honors “giraffes” in
30、the US and in the world. The group wants to teach people to do something to build a better world. The group members believe that a person shouldnt draw his or her head back; instead, they tell people to “stick their neck out” and help others. Claude and Louris, Hankins and Pearson are only a few of
31、the nearly 1,000 “giraffes” that the group found and honored.Claude and Louris were getting old and they left their work with some money that they saved for future use. One day, however, they saw a homeless man looking for a place to keep warm and they decided that they should “stick their neck out”
32、 and give him some help. Today, they lived in Friends House, where they invite twelve homeless people to stay every night.Police officers Hankins and Pearson work in a large city. They see crimes every day and their work is sometimes dangerous. They work hard for their money. However, these two men
33、put their savings together and even borrowed money to start an educational center to teach young people in a poor part of the city. Hankins and Pearson are certainly “giraffes”.51.

34、nimal in the world.C. “Giraffes” is a beautiful name for those who are ready to help other people.D.

36、 a quiet life.B. It helps the homeless and teaches the young people. C. It tries to find 1,000 warm-hearted people in the US. D. It shows people what their duty is for a better world.55. The passage mainly tries to tell us _.A. what giraffes are likeB. what the Giraffe Project isC. why Claude, Louri
37、s, Hankins and Pearson are called “giraffes” D. what we should do for a better worldCMany years ago my student asked me the question, Mrs. Kindred, why do you teach? Without taking time to reflect, I answered, Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someones life. Even
38、though I was sincere, that wasnt a very good answer and my student didnt let it slide. Let me get this straight, he said, You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone? He shook his head
39、as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused. Im one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty, or swift. Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach, there are days when I wonder. On those days, I remind myself of the real reason
40、s I teach: Its in my blood. My mother was my most influential teacher, and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990. She instilled(逐渐灌输) in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors for. Teaching is a way to make a difference. If you throw a stone in a pond
41、 the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore. You cant have ripples without a stone. Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference, and thats what I strive to do. I genuinely love teenagers. I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years. Life
42、is full of ups and downs, and if I can help students avoid some potholes（洞坑）on the road of life, I want to do so. If theyll allow me to celebrate their victories with them, I want to do too. Teaching isnt for everyone, but I know I made the right career choice.56. Why did the student continue to ask
43、 the question about the writers being a teacher?A. Because he thought her answer was unbelievable.B. Because the writer was insincere.C. Because the student was naughty.D.

In the writers opinion, some people in the world are unfit to teach.D. The writer annoyed the student who asked the question
45、.59. We can infer from the text that _.A. the writer was also a good teacher in schoolB. the writer often plays with her students beside a pondC. the writer devotes herself to teaching and her studentsD. the writer often accompanies the students on their way home60. Whats the main idea of the text?A
46、. A students silly question.B. A good teacher who likes students.C. A confused student.D. The reason why I teach. D Life is difficult. It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult. Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain(抱怨) abo
47、ut their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties stand for a special kind of suffering especially forced on them or else on their families, their class, or even their nation. What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems
48、is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause sadness, or loneliness(孤独) or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes a lot of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. Y
49、et, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we want to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children
50、to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt, instruct(指导).” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.61Which sentence best express the central point of the p
51、assage?A. Problems and difficulties represent a special kind of suffering.B. We become stronger by facing and solving problems of life.C. Life is difficult because our problems bring us pain.D. People like to complain about their problems.62. The writer probably used just one short sentence in the f
52、irst paragraph to _.A. save space B. persuade readersC. make readers laugh D. get readers attention63.

53、lives are64. According to the passage, we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to _.A. encourage them to learnB. teach them to fear the pain of solving the problemsC. help them learn to deal with painD. teach them how to respect problems65.
