I remember my Mom worrying about me getting sick from the heat in the summer, because I wore a thickblue sweater all the time. No respectabl
15、e cowboy, however, would wear short sleeves so I sweated while I played.One day my parents gave me a bb gun. It lookedjust like a gun that all the cowboys used in the movies. I spent hours each day during those summer months shooting at stumps andpretending to be John Wayne (film actor who played to
16、ugh heroes). As I was coming into the house one afternoon, though, I tried it one time too many. The gun that I thought was empty let out a soft pop and a bullet flew across the room and parted the hair of my Dad who was asleep on the couch. My Dad took one look at the bb hole a half inch above his
17、head, walked over to me, took my gun, walked outside, and calmly broke it in half.I didnt cry too much over this. I knew how close I had come to hurting my Dad with my stupidity. I didnt expect to ever get another bb gun either. That is why I was so surprised when my Dad bought me another one the ne
18、xt year. I guess he thought I had wised up enough to know how to use it this time. I never put a single bb in the new gun, but in my imagination JohnWayne rode again.I eventually outgrew my cowboy stage, but I never did outgrow myappreciation for my Fathers forgiveness. He showed me that even when I
19、messed up in the worse way I was still loved. He gave me another chanceand let me know that I was forgiven whether I deserved it or not. Heshared with me some of the unconditional love and forgiveness. May we always embrace and share that love and forgiveness as well.26. The author wore a thick blue

How did the author feel when he received the first bb gun?A. Doubtful. B. Surprised. C. Regretful. D. Overjoyed.28. The author didnt c

22、t in cowboys30. What might be the most suitable title for the passage?A. A New BB GunB. A Fathers forgivenessC. A Cowboys ExperienceD. The Mistake of a Naughty BoyBIts never easy moving schools. Youre settled in the school youre in, you have your friends and you know your teachers and you just dont
23、want the change. But unfortunately sometimes it is necessary to move schools and start again. Once youve started at the new school there are little tips and tricks you could try to help you fit in and make new friends easily.When you start at a new school you may be nervous and be keen to make new f
24、riends as soon as possible. You may feel like you need to make friends by changing who you are. If you want to make friends quickly you may feel like to fit in your need to alter your personality. This is not a good idea. Changing who you are for other people will only make you feel insecure and pre
25、ssured. Be yourself, you dont need to change and you soon enough will find friends who like you for what you are. When you move to a new school in a new area you may want to keep in touch with friends from your last school and, depending on how far you now live from the old school, you usually can.
26、But that doesnt mean you should avoid making friends at your new school. If you are invited to another pupils house for tea, take up the offer. You may prefer to go out with your old friends but by getting involved with other pupils youll find yourself making friends much more easily. The teachers a
27、t your new school will be happy to help you settle in. If you are having any trouble fitting in or even if you just want to talk to someone who understands, have a word with your teacher. He or she will be happy to listen to you. If you are having trouble with another class member and you dont know
28、what to do about it, talk with your teacher. Your teacher is there to help so be sure to confide in him or her whenever you need to.Moving to a new school in an unfamiliar area can be hard. Youll be keen to fit in but dont worry too much. Before long youll have made lots of friends and youll be havi
29、ng fun again. 31. Why does the author think moving schools difficult?A. You are used to your old environment.B. Your teachers dont want you to change school.C. It is never easy to get permission of the authority.D. It is difficult to make new friends in a new school.32. After moving to a new school,
30、 you should _ .A. listen to your teacher B. try to be yourselfC. change your personality D. forget your old friends33. The underlined words “confide in” in the fourth paragraph can be replaced by _ .A. believe in B. have respect forC. have confidence in D. tell your thoughts to34. Which of the follo
31、wing is NOT the suggestion made by the author?A. Take up invites B. Talk to your teachers C. Always be yourself D. Keep in touch with your old friends.35. What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?A. Giving advice on how to move to a new school.B. Giving advice on how to learn well in a new
32、 school.C. Giving advice on how to fit in at your new school.D. Giving advice on how to make friends in a new school.CWe live in a “now” culture. If it takes more than five seconds for a website to load, we wont view it. We want to call our friends now, even if well see them in 10 minutes. The “now”
33、 culture is one of convenience, and lets face it, convenience can make our lives easier. Unfortunately, by gaining convenience, weve lost some of our patience. If youre like me, patience does not come naturally. Here are a few tips Ive learned along the way to cultivate more patience in my life: Ask
34、 yourself why youre in a hurry.If you feel rushed while going about your normal day, ask yourself why. Will the world end if you get home five minutes late? What if you stop to talk to the random people you meet each day? If you do stop to talk, youll be amazed how much more connected youll feel to
35、your community.Hang around people who have patience.I had a lot less patience before I met my husband. Being around him daily has certainly given me a greater appreciation for the art of waiting. Hes not only a great example of someone who lives his life patiently, but he tells me if Im getting too
36、anxious or impatient. If you dont know someone whos patient in your immediate circle of friends, take a class like yoga where meditation is part of the art._.Sometimes you can lose sight of long-term goals in the rush towards instant gratification. Most people trying to lose weight have a hard time
37、cutting out sugary or carb-loaded foods completely. It helps to cut these lofty long-term goals into smaller chunks. To encourage weight loss, you can slowly cut back on your calorie intake or increase your exercise regimen each week. Whatever route you take, setting those little goals will help you
38、 achieve the big ones faster.Think of the things youve gained by being patient.When all else fails, I think of the good things that have happened in my life because I waited. Passing up on a few “so-so” job offers last year paved the way for me to land a job I really wanted. When you can think of po
39、sitive outcomes that have come from waiting, it puts into perspective why its not always the best strategy to rush into things.36. What does the author think of patience?A. It makes our life easier.B. It brings convenience to life.C. It can be gained by slowing yourself down.D. It is a common phenom
40、enon in a “now” culture.37. We can infer from the fourth paragraph that _ .A. patience can be learned from othersB. women get more patient after marriageC. patience plays an important role in marriageD. the author gets more patient by taking a yoga class 38. What is the best title for the fifth para
41、graph?A. Never lose sight of your long-term goals.B. Set a long-term goal and achieve big ones.C. Focus on short-term goals to reach long-term ones.D. Set both long-term goals and short-term ones to lose weight.39. The underlined phrase “Passing up on” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to
42、_ .A. Seizing the chance of B. Doing well inC. Making full use of D. Refusing to accept40. The author supports her arguments mainly by _.A. analyzing causes B. giving examples C. describing process D. making comparison DGlobal Positioning Systems(全球定位系统) are now a part of everyday driving in many co
43、untries. These satellite-based systems provide turn-by-turn directions to help people get to where they want to go. However, they can also cause a lot of problems, send you to the wrong place or leave you completely lost. Many times, the driver is to blame. Sometimes a GPS error is responsible. Most
44、 often, says Barry Brown, it is a combination of the two.Barry Brown is with the Mobile Life Centre in Stockholm, Sweden. He told us about an incident involving a friend who had flown to an airport in the eastern United States. There he borrowed a GPS-equipped car to use during his stay. Mr. Brown s
45、ays, “They just plugged in an address and then set off to their destination. And, then it wasnt until they were driving for thirty minutes that they realized they actually put in a destination back on the West Coast where they lived. They actually put their home address in. So again, the GPS is kind
46、 of garbage in garbage out.”Mr. Brown says this is a common human error, but what makes the problem worse has to do with some of the shortcomings, or failures, of GPS equipment. He says, “One problem with a lot of the GPS units is they have a very small screen and they just tell you the next turn. B
47、ecause they just give you the next turn, sometimes that means that it is not really giving you the overview that you would need to know that its going to the wrong place.”Mr. Brown says, “One of the things that struck us, perhaps the most important thing was that you have to know what youre doing wh
48、en you use a GPS. There are these new skills that people have developed. There are these new competencies(资格) that you need to have to be able to use a GPS because they sometimes go wrong. This goes against a common belief that GPS systems are for passive drivers who lack navigational skills.”Barry
49、Brown says to make GPS systems better we need a better understanding of how drivers, passengers and GPS systems work together.41. According to Barry Brow, in most cases, _ are blame for the problems.A. human errors B. GPS errorsC. errors caused by both drivers and GPSD. errors caused by putting in a
50、 wrong address42. The example of Barry Browns friend is used to show that _ .A. GPS is nothing but garbageB. GPS is still not accurate enoughC. it is difficult for drivers to use GPS equipment.D. sometimes drivers are responsible for the problem43. It can be inferred from the second paragraph that _
51、 .A. Its impossible to drive from the east to the west in the US.B. Barry Browns friend went to Stockholm, Sweden by plane.C. Given wrong instructions, the GPS will produce wrong results.D. GPS systems are for passive drivers who lack navigational skills.44. Which of the followings is one of the sho
52、rtcomings of GPS equipment? A. It tells the driver to turn once at a time.B. It gives the driver the overview.C. Its screen is too small to be seen clearly.D. It is only suitable for passive drivers.45. Whats the main idea of the text?A. GPS systems need to be improved.B. Driving with GPS can be dif
53、ficult to navigate.C. Drivers should understand how GPS systems work.D. Drivers should learn to use GPS systems correctly.第二节 信息匹配 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。以下是招聘广告信息:ARecording part time job for foreigners with high salary There is a recording part time job.

So my dear friends, I strongly recommend that only with insistence can your dream eventually come true!
