The goal of their game was to write the word “shm
24、ily” in a surprise place for the other to find. They took turns leaving “shmily” around the house, and as soon as one of them discovered it, it was their turn to hide it once more. They dragged “shmily” with their fingers through the sugar and flour containers to await whoever was preparing the next
25、 meal. “Shmily” was written in the steam left on the mirror after a hot shower, where it would reappear bath after bath. There was no end to the places where “shmily” would pop up. Little notes with “shmily” were found on car seats, or taped to steering wheels. The notes were put inside shoes and le
26、ft under pillows. “Shmily” was written in the dust upon the mantel(壁炉架)and traced in the ashes of the fireplace. This mysterious word was as much a part of my grandparents house as the furniture.It took me a long time before I was able to fully appreciate my grandparents game. Skepticism has kept me
27、 from believing in true love - one that is pure and enduring (持久的). However, I never doubted my grandparents relationship. It was based on passionate(热情的)affection which not everyone is lucky enough to experience.But there was a dark cloud in my grandparents life: my grandmother had breast cancer. T
28、he disease had first appeared ten years earlier. As always, Grandpa was with her every step of the way. He comforted her in their yellow room, painted that way so that she could always be surrounded by sunshine, even when she was too sick to go outside. But my grandmother grew steadily weaker until,
29、 finally, she could not leave the house anymore. Then one day, what we all dreaded finally happened. Grandma was gone.“Shmily.” It was written in yellow on the pink ribbons of my grandmothers funeral bouquet (花束). As the crowd thinned and the last mourners turned to leave, Grandpa stepped up to my g
30、randmothers coffin and, taking a shaky breath, he began to sing to her. Through his tears and grief, the song came: S-h-m-i-l-y: See How Much I Love You.51. According to the passage, where may the word “shmily” be found?a. in the flour containersb. on the mirrorc. on the sheet of toilet paperd. on p
31、illowse. on the furnitureA. a, b B. b, c C. a, d D. b, e52. The first paragraph is mainly about _.A. what the word “shmily” meansB. how the authors grandparents played their special gameC. how the author appreciated her grandparents gameD. how the authors grandparents cared for each other53. The und
32、erlined phrase “pop up” in Paragraph 1 means _.A. appear B. change C. survive D. work54. According to the passage, the author _.A. thought the game was meaninglessB. believes everyone can experience true loveC. doubted the existence of true love at firstD. sometimes left “shmily” around the house55.
33、 Grandpa tried to make Grandma comfortable by _.A. singing songs to her every dayB. painting the room yellowC. encouraging her to go outsideD. helping her take a hot shower every dayBWhy does most of the world travel on the right side today? Theories differ, but theres no doubt Napoleon was a major
34、influence. The French have used the right since at least the late 18th century. Some say that before the French Revolution, noblemen drove their carriages on the left, forcing the peasants to the right. Regardless of the origin, Napoleon brought right-hand traffic to the nations he conquered, includ
35、ing Russia, Switzerland and Germany. Hitler, in turn, ordered right-hand traffic in Czechoslovakia and Austria in the 1930s. Nations that escaped right-hand control, like Great Britain, followed their left-hand tradition.The U.S. has not always been a nation of right-hand drivers; earlier in its his
36、tory, carriage and horse traffic travelled on the left, as it did in England. But by the late 1700s, people driving large wagons pulled by several pairs of horses began promoting a shift(改变)to the right. A driver would sit on the rear(后面的)left horse in order to wave his whip(鞭子)with his right hand;
37、to see opposite traffic clearly, they travelled on the right.One of the final moves to firmly standardize traffic directions in the U.S. occurred in the 20th century, when Henry Ford decided to mass-produce his cars with controls on the left (one reason, stated in 1908: the convenience for passenger
38、s exiting directly onto the edge, especially if there is a lady to be considered). Once these rules were set, many countries eventually adjusted to the right-hand standard, including Canada in the 1920s, Sweden in 1967 and Burma in 1970. The U.K. and former colonies such as Australia and India are a
39、mong the Western worlds few remaining holdouts(坚持不变者). Several Asian nations, including Japan, use the left as well- though many places use both right-hand-drive and left-hand-drive cars.56. Why did people in Switzerland travel on the right?A. They had used the right-hand traffic since the 18th cent
40、ury.B. Rich people enjoyed driving their carriages on the right.C. Napoleon introduced the right-hand traffic to this country.D. Hitler ordered them to go against their left-hand tradition.57. Of all the countries below, the one that travels on the right is_.A. Austria B. EnglandC. JapanD. Australia
41、58. Henry Ford produced cars with controls on the left _.A. in order to change traffic directions in the U.S.B. so that passengers could get off convenientlyC. because rules at that time werent perfectD. though many countries were strongly against that59. According to the passage, which of the follo
42、wing is TRUE?A. Before the French Revolution, all the French people used the right.B. People in Britain and the U.S. travel on the same side nowadays.C. The Burmese began to travel on the right in 1970.D. All the Asian nations use the left at present.60. What would be the best title for this passage
43、?A. Who made the great contribution to the shift of traffic directions?B. How cars have become a popular means of transportation?C. How Henry Ford produced his cars with controls on the left?D. Why dont people all drive on the same side of road?CId always dreamed of exploring Africa, ever since I re
44、ad my first Tarzan(人猿泰山)comic as a child. Finally, in 2004, to celebrate my 60th birthday, I went to Tanzania to experience a safari(东非游猎)and climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. Seated next to me on the flight was Tanzanias minister of water and wildlife development. We talked f
45、or thousands of miles, and he arranged me to visit a school. When I toured the school, I was shocked. The leaky(漏的)roofs turned the dirt floors into mud during the rainy season, and the walls couldnt keep out the heat, cold or bugs(小昆虫). The school was in need of all material goods, but the kids pos
46、sessed great human spirit.It broke my heart that these children had to struggle to survive, so I asked the headmaster what it would cost to feed them. As little as 20 cents per child per day, he told me. Immediately I got home, I founded Kids of Kilimanjaro. Since then weve grown to provide hot lunc
47、hes for nearly 13,000 schoolchildren every day. The free lunch program has eased a major problem the youngsters face.I know a good education could really make a difference in these childrens lives. My parents always stressed the importance of education. I paid my own way through college in Tokyo by
48、teaching English to students and businesspeople. After attending university I moved to San Francisco, when I was 25 years old. In 1978 I realized my American dream when I founded my own company. My success all started with a good education.Its amazing that something as simple as a nutritious lunch c
49、an change and enrich so many lives. Giving young people a better, healthier life can inspire them to go all the way through college and lead a movement that transforms their country.61. Why did the author go to Tanzania to celebrate his 60th birthday?A. He was curious about what Africa was like.B. H
50、e was concerned about the Africans miserable life.C. He wanted to get an idea of the areas wildlife.D. He hoped to lead a movement that would transform his country.62.

52、sequence of the following events?a. “I” founded “my” first company.b. “I” founded Kids of Kilimanjaro.c. “I” read “my” first Tarzan comic.d. “I” moved to San Francisco.A. a, c, d, bB. a, d, c, bC. c, a, d, bD. c, d, a, b65. The author believes education is important because _.A. his parents always s
53、tressed the importance of educationB. a good education contributes to his successC. he paid his own way through college by teaching EnglishD. hes trying to realize his American dreamDYour peers are people your age or close to it who have experiences and interests similar to yours. You and your frien
54、ds make dozens of decisions every day, and you influence each others choices and behavior. This is often _ - its human nature to listen to and learn from other people in your age group.Sometimes, though, the stresses in your life can actually come from your peers. They may pressure you into doing so
55、mething youre uncomfortable with, such as shoplifting, doing drugs or drinking, or taking dangerous risks when driving a car.The pressure to conform(随潮流) can be powerful and hard to resist. A person might feel pressure to do something just because others are doing it. Peer pressure can influence a p
56、erson to do something that is relatively harmless- or something that has more serious consequences.People may feel pressure to conform, so they fit in or are accepted, or so they dont feel awkward or uncomfortable. When people are unsure of what to do in a social situation, they naturally look to ot
57、hers for cues(暗示)about what is and isnt acceptable.The people who are most easily influenced will follow someone elses lead first. Then others may go along, too - so it can be easy to think, “It must be OK. Everyone else is doing it. They must know what theyre doing.” Before you know it, many people
58、 are going along with the crowd - perhaps on something they might not otherwise do.Responding to peer pressure is part of human nature - but some people are more likely to give in, and others are better able to resist and stand their ground.Its not always easy to resist negative peer pressure. But w
59、hen you do, it is easy to feel good about it afterwards. And you may even be a positive influence on your peers who feel the same way - often it just takes one person to speak out or take a different action to change a situation.66.

60、give you a lot of homework.B. Your parents expect high scores from you.C. Your classmates persuade you to cut class.D. Your relatives invite you to attend a party.67.

Here are four goals for people to reach a perfect life in their future.The first goal common to all of us is health and energy. We all w
64、ant to be healthy and fit, to have high levels of energy and to live free of pains and illnesses. Today, with the incredible advances in medical science, the quality of our health and fitness, and our lifespan, is largely determined by design, not by chance. People with excellent health habits are f
65、ar healthier, have more energy, and live longer and better than people who have poor health habits. Remember that health is not everything, but without health everything is nothing!The second goal that we all have in common is to enjoy excellent relationships- intimate, personal or social- with the
66、people we like and respect, and who like and respect us in turn. Fully 85% of your happiness will be determined by the quality of your relationships at each stage, and in each area, of your life. How well you get along with people, and how much they like, love and respect you, have more impact on th
67、e quality of your life than perhaps any other factor.The third common goal is to do work that we enjoy, to do it well, and to be well paid for it. You want to be able to get and keep the job you want, to get paid more and elevated faster. You want to earn the very most that is possible for you at ea
68、ch stage of your career, whatever you do.The fourth goal we all have in common is to achieve financial independence. You want to reach the point in life where you have enough money so that you never have to worry about money again. You want to completely be free of financial worries. You want to be
69、able to order dinner in a restaurant without referring to the price listings to determine what you want to eat.71. What does this passage chiefly talk about? (No more than 15 words)_72. Why does the author put health ahead of other goals? (No more than 20 words)_73. Judging from the passage, what di
70、rectly influences most of your happiness? (No more than 20 words)_74. The underlined word “elevated” in Paragraph 4 refers to “_”. (No more than 5 words)_75. How can you gain financial independence? Please give your idea in brief. (No more than 15 words)_第二节:书面表达(满分25分)76. 假设你是李华。最近,你校学生会组织开展了“构建低碳校

75、it to the top and striving without reservation.六、书面表达Dear fellow students,Our school advocates that we should build a low-carbon campus in order to protect the earth.I think it is everyones duty to work hard to achieve this goal. Here is what I think we should do: First of all, we should walk or rid
76、e bikes instead of riding in cars or school buses to reduce the amount of pollution. Secondly, when we eat the food in the school cafeteria, we should eat up what we buy and not waste the food. Thirdly, it is important for us to save electricity and water. We should not leave the lights on in the da
77、ytime or leave water running after washing. Instead, we should turn off lights as soon as we leave the classroom and dormitories.In a word, if we can make small changes in our way of life, we can make a big difference to the earth!Dear fellow students, lets start right now and spare no effort to do every little thing we can from now on!
