Money was always tight, but we had a 36 over our heads, food on the table, clothes on our backs, and if not a lot, always 37 . Not knowing we
19、 were poor, my kids just thought I was 38 . Ive always been glad about that.It was Christmas time, and although there wasnt 39 for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big 40 for the kids was the fun of Christmas 41 .They planned weeks ahead of time, asking 42 what th
20、ey wanted for Christmas. Fortunately, I had saved $120 for 43 to share by all five of us.The big 44 arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and 45 them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered (散开). We had two hours to shop; then we would 46 back at the “Santas Wor

I was so angry, but I didnt say anything 49 we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, 50 to
22、 be angry again. This is what she told me.“I was looking 51 thinking of what to buy, and I 52 to read the little cards on the Giving Trees. One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she 53 for Christmas was a doll (玩具娃娃). So I took the card off the tree and 54 the doll for her. We have so m

26、travel a lot, and I find out different “styles” of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”Foreign tourists are often confused (困惑) in Japan because most streets there dont have names; in Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example
27、, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very fla
28、t; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance
29、on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “its about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They dont know.Its true that a person doesnt know the answer to your question sometimes. What happen
30、s in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I dont know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I dont know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!56. When a tourist asks
31、 the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually _. A. describe the place carefullyB. show him a map of the place C. tell him the names of the streetsD. refer to recognizable buildings and places57. What is the place where people measure distance in time? A. New York.B. Los Angeles.C. Kansas.D
32、. Iowa.58. People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer _. A. in order to save timeB. as a test C. so as to be politeD. for fun59. What can we infer from the text? A. Its important for travelers to understand cultural differences. B. Its useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properl
33、y. C. People have similar understandings of politeness. D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.B Far from the land of Antarctica (南极洲), a huge shelf of ice meets the ocean. At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod.For forty years scientists have been curio
34、us about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer.Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied t
35、he fishs blood and measured its freezing point.The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of 1.88 and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to 2.05. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at
36、 the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture.The scientists next research job was clear: Find out what in the fishs blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein (蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froz
37、e at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point.Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules (分子) held in special positions within each big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content
38、, it is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein. Or AFGP.60. What is the text mainly about? A. The terrible conditions in the Antarctic. B. A special fish living in freezing waters. C. The ice shelf around Antarctica. D. Protection of the Antarctic cod.61.
39、 Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature? A. The seawater has a temperature of 1.88. B. It loves to live in the ice-salt mixture. C. A special protein keeps it from freezing. D. Its blood has a temperature lower than 2.05.62. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer
40、 to? A. A type of ice-salt mixture.B. A newly found protein. C. Fish blood.D. Sugar molecule.63. What does “glycol-” in the underlined word “glycoprotein” in the last paragraph mean? A. sugarB. iceC. bloodD. moleculeCTrees are useful to man in three important ways: they give him wood and other usefu
41、l things, they give him cool places, and they help to stop drought and flood.Unluckily, in many parts of the world, man has not found that the third of these points is the most important. Man wants to make money from trees,so he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he h
42、as lost the best friends he had. And also, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are even worse: for where there are trees, their roots break up soil-make the rain in-and also
43、bind the soil, thus stopping it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left but useless desert.64. The most important points of trees to m
44、an is _.A. they help him to make money B. they give him cool C. they give him wood and other things D. they help him to stop drought and floods65. In many places forests slowly disappear because _ .A. many trees have been cut down by man B. new trees are not well looked after C. man has not paid eno
45、ugh attention to planting trees D. all the above66. Land becomes desert after all trees are cut down because _ .A. roots of trees break up the soil B. there are too many rainfallsC. strong winds bring a lot of sand D. there are no longer trees to keep the rain and protect the top-soil.67.Which title
46、 best fits the passage?A. Trees and Man B. The Function of Tree WoodC. How do People do with Trees? D. The Usage of Tree RootsD“How can I learn English well?” This is a question many students ask. In my opinion, the most effective way is to learn lessons by heart. If you can recite the text and writ
47、e it out, youve learned it fairly well. And if you can tell, in your own words, what the lesson says youre a very successful learner indeed. Your English will be quite perfect.This is a difficult task. However, if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson, youll find it not half so hard as
48、you might have thought. Learning this way, you will make rapid progress. Of course, writing is also necessary. It helps you a lot on our way to success in English. Equally important is to feel the language. You should be able to laugh at jokes and be shocked at bad news. When using English, try to f
49、orget your mother tongue. Instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way. So, never try to see English through translation.68.In the writers opinion, the most effective way in learning English is _.A. to practise speaking, writing and feeling itB. to forget your own native languageC. to
50、translate everything into his own languageD. to memorize the English words and grammatical rules69. “Instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way.”This sentence means that memorizing your own language can _.A. help you to study English well B. stop you mastering EnglishC. make English
51、easy to learn D. help you notice mistakes70.Equally important is to feel the language. “to feel the language” here means_. A. to get a knowledge of English by touchingB. to be able to read and write EnglishC. to translate English into your own by imaginingD. to be able to experience the rich sensati

Generally speaking, it is often used to describe anything from creative imagination, including works of poetry, drama and fiction.Then w
53、hy read literature, since it is often imaginary and seems unconnected with real life?A lot of us read literature for pleasure and relaxation. Its always pleasant to read some interesting books, such as comedies and novels, in our spare time. In a modern life full of pressure, it is our common desire
54、 to read some imaginary works and seek relaxation from the stress in life.Reading literature is more than fun; it also enables us to acquire knowledge. As a general rule, literature represents a language or a people, and it often gives us an insight (洞悉，了解) into the traditions, customs, beliefs, att
55、itudes and values of the age in which it was written.Sometimes literature can even offer us new, creative ways to have a better understanding of the world. It helps us make sense of the world around us. It introduces us to new worlds of experiences.We enjoy the comedy and the tragedy of poems, stori
56、es and plays; and we may even grow through our literary journey with books. Eventually, we may discover meaning in literature by looking at what the author says and how he/she says it. In a sense, we explore the human condition and analyze how and why people think the way they think and feel the way
57、 they feel. Literature enables us to think analytically and promotes open minds. We see the world through the eyes of different cultures and in turn learn the ways to deal with things that happen around. So we can definitely say literature is of great importance to us.

You said your nervousness led to your failure in the examination. In that case, I, as well as your parents, can expect
64、that you will get a better result if you take part in the National College Entrance Examination next year. You know, more than half of the senior school graduates having another try can go to their ideal universities. Besides, if you choose to attend technical college, you may find there are some re

79、, I see. Youre right, Maria.Text 10 I have really enjoyed my job, especially as it was my first suitable job in the UK. I had been working as a chef and kitchen porter before this but this is the suitable work. I found it through the Internet. The job has given me confidence with English computer te
80、rms and working with English people. They are quite different here to the people in Spain. People in England are much more logical. I already had a good knowledge of computers before my job, but I learnt a lot about the way that business works here. Its always good to show that Ive worked abroad in
81、a company related to what Ive been studying. It was nice that the atmosphere was relaxed. In Spain, you always have to wear a shirt to any computer job, but its not the same in English companies. If I had to give advice for you, I would say you should meet as many people as possible. I canme here partly to learn English, but at first, the only people I met were Spanish people! Mixing with English people has made such a difference to my expericence here. 12 / 12
