25、(花店). “Now, what is it that you want?” Mr. Rocco turned to me. “I want the most beautiful flower you have.” I replied. “And just how much do you have to pay for this most beautiful flower?” I held out a wet hand showing a quarter and a dime. He nodded, and then showed me a plant on the counter. “I c
26、an give you this one for 35 cents.” he said. “Aw, gee,” I protested, “it looks like a weed!” About 18 inches high, the plant was in a small pot covered with faded red paper. “Now trust me, boy I promise that tomorrow morning when you get up, you will find your most beautiful flower.” said Mr. Rocco.
27、 I knew him to be a good honest man, so I agreed to take it.It was almost midnight when I arrived home. Mom was seriously sick and using the front bedroom. I looked in to see if she was asleep, and then quietly tiptoed in and set the plant on the table beside her bed. I wanted her to be surprised wh
28、en she woke on Mothers Day. The next morning, I dressed and hurried downstairs. The sun was shining through kitchen window as I looked into Moms room. She motioned for me to come in, and then glanced over at the table where the plant was. Holy mackerel! There were three big yellow trumpet-shaped blo
29、oms. It was just like Mr. Rocco said the most beautiful flower I ever saw! When I looked at Mom, she was smiling as tears streamed down her cheeks. She held out her hand for me to come near, and then pulled me close and hugged till it hurt. Then, remembering her contagious condition and that she was
30、nt supposed to touch me, she quickly let me go.My dear Mom died the next night. The moment she hugged me turned out to be the most wonderful moment of my life. Not only had that beautiful plant helped show just how much I loved her, but Id always know how much she loved me.51. The author didnt like
31、the plant recommended by Mr. Rocco at first because_. A. the packing of the plant was shabby B. the plant was actually a weed C. the plant appeared too ordinary to be the most beautiful D. he thought Mr. Rocco was reluctant to do the deal with him52.

Which may be the best title of the passage? A. Flowers of LoveB. A Sons Love for Mother C. Low Price, High ValueD. A Special
34、Mothers DayBScience fiction writers create imaginary worlds. The way things work in your imaginary worlds will be based on actual science. So its important for you to be familiar with the scientific principles and inventions that are related to your creation. For example, if youre writing about huma
35、ns living on a planet with zero gravity, then you need to know the effects of zero gravity on the human body.Then you have to figure out the exact rules of your imaginary worlds. And you have to follow them. If humans have evolved to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your character cant drown in a sw
36、imming pool in Chapter 3. If your robots write poetry but not fiction, then you cant throw a novelist robot into Chapter 8. The issue here is maintaining your readers trust. That means the reader is willing to pretend along with you. If you start out with an ordinary detective novel and then throw i
37、n someone breathing underwater in the 6th chapter, your readers reaction might be, “What the h?” The imaginative spell is broken. Youve pulled the readers out of their imagination. The same thing happens if you change the rules halfway.Part of your preparation work for the novel is to map out its wo
38、rlds for yourself in great detail. Decide: the history of the world, the geography, what possibilities it offers, how everything works in this new reality, and how all of these factors affect the way your characters think, feel, and react to things. You dont have to tell your readers all the rules i
39、n the first chapter. But you have to let your readers know enough to understand whats going on. This also allows you to work out logical problems and contradictions before you start writing. When you are writing, remember to make it feel real. You are inviting readers to visit a new world. They will
40、 want to be able to see, hear, feel, smell, and even taste what its like. Whether your novel is about a world without disease or an undiscovered planet, help your readers feel like theyre actually there.56. Whats the relationship between actual science and science fiction?A. Science fiction promotes
41、 the development of actual science.B. Science fiction often reflects the development of actual science.C. Actual science limits the imagination described in science fiction.D. Actual science provides basic principles for science fiction.57. The second paragraph is mainly developed by _.A. making com
42、parisonsB. giving examplesC. following the time orderD. analyzing causes58. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. It is necessary to do some scientific experiments before writing science fiction.B. It is more difficult to write science fiction than ordinary detective novels.C. Readers of scie
43、nce fiction actually pretend the writers rules are true.D. It is great to leave some contradictions in your science fiction.59. The target (目标) readers of the passage are _.A. young scientistsB. science fiction writersC. college studentsD. professional journalists60. The passage is mainly about _.A.
44、 how to do scientific researchB. how to raise interest in scienceC. what to expect from science fictionD. how to write science fictionCYou re hanging out in a bar when a stranger comes up to you and offers you a deal on an iPhone 6. He s clearly in a hurry and says he needs to sell it right now. You
45、 should come to the obvious conclusion: The phone is a fake. What are the characteristics of the fakes? Let me show you.First, by trying out the phone, you might notice that the software response feels slow. Thats because the motherboard is from an older model. But theres another way to tell and tha
46、ts more certain: When you look on the back of an iPhone 6, youll see the phones electronic serial number-known as the IMEI (International Mobile Station Equipment Identity)-engraved in tiny print just under the iPhone logo. This is a unique serial number that identifies the specific phone. If those
47、numbers dont match up, you ve got a fake.The other way the liar builds fakes is by trying to disguise an Android phone as an iPhone. These are usually easier to spot. You can check out the icons (图标) on the home screen: For example, if you see a Google Play App, its not an iPhone. Or try tapping the
48、 App Store icon; if it doesnt go to Apples App Store, its not an iPhone. Other indications that may help you identify a false iPhone: It is that it may be a little thicker than or not quite as heavy as the real thing. The screen resolution (分辨率) may be lower and some details of construction may be w
49、rong.The bottom line is: That youre in a seemingly legal cellphone store doesnt mean the iPhone is true. To be absolutely sure, stick with an Apple Store, a store belonging to an authorized seller. And, as always, follow the golden rule: Real iPhones dont sell for $100 - or even twice that, unless t
50、heyre very old.61. Which of the following is WRONG to identify whether an iPhone 6 is real?A. To see its screen resolution. B. To feel its software response.C. To check its electronic serial number. D. To confirm the existence of an iPhone logo.62. What does the underlined word “engraved” in Paragra
51、ph 2 probably mean?A. Carved. B. Covered. C. Connected. D. Mixed.63.If an Android phone is disguised as an iPhone, it_.A. doesnt have the App Store icon B. has the same weight as the real oneC. doesnt have the electronic serial numberD. has a Google Play App or a false App Store icon64.What can we l
52、earn from this passage?A. Dont always try to get things on the cheap. B. It is really difficult to buy a real iPhone 6.C. Say no to all the cheap things at the store. D. If a deal is too good to be true, it probably is true.65.The author writes this passage mainly to tell us_. .A. not to buy an iPho
53、ne 6 from a stranger B. to buy an iPhone 6 from an Apple StoreC. how to distinguish a false iPhone 6 D. how to choose a good iPhone 6D When were little, our mother is the center of our attention, and we are the center of hers. So our mothers characteristics leave an indelible (持久的) impression, and w
54、e are forever after attracted to people with her facial features, body type, personality, even sense of humor. If our mother is warm and giving, as adults we tend to be attracted to people who are warm and giving. If our mother is strong and even-tempered, we are going to be attracted to a fair-mind
55、ed strength in our mates (伴侣).The mother has an additional influence on her sons: she not only gives them clues to what they will find attractive in a mate, but also affects how they feel about women in general. So if she is warm and nice, her sons are going to think thats the way women are. They wi
56、ll probably grow up to be warm and responsive lovers and also be cooperative around the house.Conversely (相反地), a mother who has a depressive personality, and is sometimes friendly but then suddenly turns cold and rejecting, may raise a man who becomes a “dance-away lover”. Because hes been so scare
57、d about love from his mother, hes afraid of commitment and may pull away from a girlfriend for this reason.While the mother determines in large part what qualities attract us in a mate, its the father the first male in our lives who influences how we relate to the opposite sex. Fathers have an enorm
58、ous effect on their childrens personalities and chances of marital (婚姻的) happiness.Just as mothers influence their sons general feelings toward women, fathers influence their daughters general feelings about men. If a father lavishes praise on his daughter and demonstrates (表露出) that she is a worthw
59、hile person, shell feel very good about herself in relation to men. But if the father is cold, critical or absent, the daughter will tend to feel shes not very lovable or attractive.In addition, most of us grow up with people of similar social circumstances. We hang around with people in the same to
60、wn; our friends have about the same educational backgrounds and career goals. We tend to be most comfortable with these people, and therefore we tend to link up with others whose families are often much like our own.66. Why do our mothers characteristics leave us an indelible impression?A. Because w
61、e are likely to be attached to people with her characteristics.B. Because mother and her child are the centers of each other when her child is very young.C. Because our mother is better than our dad.D. Because our mother is a woman who is kind to us.67. What can we know from Paragraphs 2 and 3?A. Th
62、e mother only influences her sons.B. The sons always think women are warm and nice.C. A mother who has a depressive personality is sure to raise a dance-away lover.D. The mother has an additional influence on her sons.68. Which of the following is NOT true?A. If our mothers warm and giving, we love
63、to be together with warm and generous people.B. If our mother is strong and well-controlled, we are going to be attracted to a fair-minded strength in our mates.C. Mother not only gives her children clues to what they will find attractive in a mate, but also affects how they feel about women in gene
64、ral.D. Fathers influence their daughters general feelings about men.69. What does the underlined word “lavishes” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Uses much. B. Uses little.C. Never uses.D. Seldom uses.70. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Mothers influence on their sons.B. Parents influence
65、on their children.C. Parents impression on their children.D. Fathers influence on their daughters.第II卷 非选择题 (共35分)第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 ：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面的短文，请根据短文后的要求答题。 When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, its so-and-sos fault.” or “I know Im late, but its n
66、ot my fault; the car broke down.” It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you
67、if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to improve the situation. This is the winners key to success.Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might sta
68、rt to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. Actually, cases of this kind are common occurrence. If your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather
69、 than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or dont rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about creatively
70、 using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners dont have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own t
71、alents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is”. Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.71.
