11、is seldom a masterpiece. If you consider your drafts as dress rehearsals (彩排), or tryouts, revising will seem a natural part of the writing _21_. What is the purpose of the dress rehearsals and the out-of-town previews that many Broadway shows go through? The answer is adding, deleting, replacing, r
12、eordering, _22_ revising. Andrew Lloyd Webbers musical Phantom of the Opera underwent(经历)such a process.When Lloyd Webber began writing in 1984, he had in mind a funny, exciting production. However, when Phantom opened in London in 1986, the audience saw a moving psychological love story set to musi
13、c. The musical had _23_ several revisions due to problems with costuming and makeup (戏服和化妆). For instance, Lloyd Webber _24_ some of the music because the Phantoms makeup prevented the actor from singing certain sounds. When you revise, you change aspects of your work in _25_ to your evolving(不断演变的)
14、 purpose, or to include _26_ ideas or newly discovered information. Revision is not just an afterthought that gets only as much time as you have at the end of an assignment. _27_, it is a major stage of the writing process, and writers revise every step of the way. Even your decision to _28_ topics
15、while prewriting is a type of revising. However, dont make the mistake of skipping the revision stage that follows training. Always make time to become your own _29_and view your dress rehearsal, so to speak. Reviewing your work in this way can give you _30_ new ideas.Revising involves _31_ the effe
16、ctiveness and appropriateness(恰当)of all aspects of your writing, making your purpose more _32_, and refocusing or developing the facts and ideas you present. When you revise, ask yourself the following questions, keeping in mind the audience for whom you are writing: Is my main idea or purpose _33_
17、throughout my draft? Do I ever lose sight of my purpose? Have I given my readers all of the _34_; that is, facts, opinions, inferences - that they need in order to understand my main idea? Finally, have I included too many_35_ details that may confuse readers?21. A. techniqueB. styleC. processD. car

She carried the pole with the pots across her neck. One of the pots had a crack in it while the other pot was perfect
21、and always delivered a full pot of water. At the end of the long walk from the well to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half-full. For two years this happened daily, with the woman bringing home only one and a half pots of water. Of course, the perfect pot was proud. But the poor cracked pot
22、was ashamed of its own imperfection. One day, the cracked pot spoke to the woman by the well: “I am ashamed of myself because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house.” The old woman smiled: “Did you notice that there are flowers on your side of the path, but not
23、 on the other pots side? Thats because I have always known about your crack, so I planted flower seeds on your side of the path. And every day while we walk back, you water them.” “For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate the table. Without you being just the way yo
24、u are, I would not have this beauty.” Each of us has our own cracks. But its these cracks that make our lives together so interesting and meaningful.36. What does the underlined word “crack” mean?A. Very narrow space between two things or two parts of something. B. Line of division where something i
25、s broken, but not into separate parts.C. Fault in an idea, system, or organization. D. Sudden sharp noise like the sound of a stick being broken.37. How did the cracked pot feel about itself at first? A. Proud. B. Disappointed. C. Annoyed. D. Embarrassed.38. Where were the flowers growing?A. On both
26、 sides of the path.B. In the womans house. C. On the perfect pots side of the path.D. On the cracked pots side of the path39. Which is the correct order of the following events? The woman picked the flowers and decorated the table. The woman told the truth to the cracked pot. The cracked pot talked
27、to the woman about its crack. The woman found a crack on one pot. The woman planted some flower seeds. A. B. C. D. 40. What does the passage mainly want to tell us? A. Never laugh at imperfection.B. No pains, no gains.C. Imperfection makes life meaningful.D. Its never too late to learn. B Can dogs a
28、nd cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe of success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced wh
29、en still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog.However, it wasnt all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness be
30、tween the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals were just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submis
31、sion.In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behaviour. They are learning how to talk each others language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk Dog, and dogs can learn how to talk Cat.Whats interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to
32、develop their intelligence. They can learn how to read each others body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than we previously suspected. Once familiar with each others presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping
33、 together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.The significance of the research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets to people who dont get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn
34、to get along, surely people have a good chance.41. The underlined word “swimmingly” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _.A. early B. sweetly C. quickly D. smoothly42. Some cats and dogs may fight when _.A. they are cold to each otherB. they look away from each otherC. they misunderstood each ot
35、hers signalsD. they are introduced at an early age43. What is found surprising about cats and dogs?A. They eat and sleep each other.B. They observe each others behaviors.C. They learn to speak each others language.D. They know something from each others voices.44. It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that
36、 cats and dogs _.A. have common interestsB. are less different than was thoughtC. have a common body languageD. are less intelligent than was expected45. What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?A. We should learn to live in harmony.B. We should know more about animals.C. We should live in
37、peace with animals.D. We should learn more body languages.C A couple of years ago, before a trip to China, Nicole Davis and her US womens volleyball teammates were warned about the prominence (显著、突出) of coach “Jenny” Lang Ping in her native country.“I was pushed over by Chinese journalists while I w
38、as just trying to put my luggage on the bus,” said Davis.Known as the “Iron Hammer” for her punishing spikes(扣球), Lang made it possible for China to dominate in the sport in the early 1980s. She was a key player on Chinas 1984 Olympic gold medal winning team.When the US team arrived for the Olympics
39、, Lang, 48, who is from Beijing, had to take a different route to avoid a crowd of reporters and fans.Then came the greatest moment to Lang:while the US team was playing in a packed gym, at least 8,000 Chinese fans unfurled an American flag.“That really says it all,” Davis said. “They look at her as
40、 an icon(偶像)Im sure its hard for them to see her coaching another country, but they love her so deeply that her success is their success.”The loyalty of the Chinese fans was tested on Friday, when China lost a match to the US.“Its a pity that China lost the match, but Im still glad that Lang Pings t
41、eam won, since she is the pride of Chinas volleyball,” said Liu Chengli, a spectator. “We also cheered for Langs victory.”Lang said she just tried to stay professional when the two teams meet. “It doesnt matter if we play China or any other team. Its the same.” Lang said.Davis said she and her teamm
42、ates could not have imagined the passion for volleyball among Chinese because the sport was lack of popularity in the US. The reception from Chinese fans has touched the US players, said a US volleyball player Lindsey Berg.“Its such an honor to be here and play for our coach here in China,” she said
43、. “The amount of support that the Chinese give to her and us has been tremendous. The whole event has been unbelievable.”46Whats the passage mainly about?AStaying professional.BCheering for the Iron Hammer.CA match between China and the US.DLang Pings career as a coach.47Lang Ping avoided meeting th
44、e reporters and fans probably because she _.Awas afraid to be questioned about her strategyBdidnt want to be paid much attention toCdisliked to be with her fansDdidnt want to disturb public order48What does the underlined word “unfurled” exactly mean?Adestroyed completelyBtore into piecesCspread out
45、 to the windDrolled up49What does Lang Ping mean by saying “It doesnt matter if we play China or any other team.”?AAmerican Volleyball Team will beat any team.BChinese Volleyball Team is the same as other teams.CShe just tried to stay professional.DThe results of each match will be the same.50What i
46、mpressed the US team players most?AThe tolerance of Chinese people.BThe popularity of volleyball in China.CLang Pings coaching skills.DThe loyalty for volleyball of the Chinese.D In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the childs acquisition (学会) of each new skill - the first spoken wo
47、rds, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toi
48、let too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for
49、 himself. Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are severe over time of coming home at night or punctuality(准时)for meals. In general, the controls represent the needs of the parents and the values of the comm
50、unity as much as the childs own happiness. As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency(前后一致) is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality (道德). Also, parents should realize that example is b
51、etter than precept. If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach (说教), their children may grow confused when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled. A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents principles and
52、their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.51. Eagerly watching the childs acquisition of new skills, _. A. should be avoided B. is universal among parents C. sets up dangerous states of worry in the child D. will make the child lose interest in learning new things52. In the process of childrens
53、 learning new skills, parents _.

57、 has been so much so that it is termed The Vaccine War. The debate has only a few moments that might be inspiring to those who have been following this now familiar issue.57. There are certainly benefits of using a star in a film. It makes the film easier to market. Stars also help sell more tickets
58、 and drive DVD sales, which are a big part of studio revenue. However, a star does not guarantee success. The simple fact is that if you pay a star a great deal of money for a film that people dont want to see, then it wont work.58. They are barely in their twenties and are already multimillionaires
