The first son said that the tree wasugly, bent, and 19 . The second son contradictedit was covered with green buds and full of 20 . The third so
10、n 21 , saying it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful. It was the most graceful thing he had 22 seen. The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and 23 with fruit, full of life and fulfillment. The man then 24 to his sons that they were all right, b

The middle gives us clear and
15、logical 31 of the facts and ideas the writer intends to put forth. The end winds up the essay with a forceful statement to influence the readers 32 impression and shows consequences of the argument. To the writer the beginning is often the hardest part of an essay, because he has to decide from what
16、 point to 33 , and in what direction to go. The end is important because it often gives the reader the deepest impression. It should be short, forceful and thought-provoking.

I choose this experience because it was something that I had ne
19、ver done before and I wanted to lend a helping handWhen I first came up with the idea of volunteering at a nursing home, I wanted to help out with activities and meet with some of the residents （住客）. At first it was challenging because I was extremely shy; however after getting to know the residents
20、 a little better, I started to feel more comfortable around them. My goal in volunteering was to bring a smile to the residents by doing different activities from word games to playing chess. I feel as if I had accomplished that goal. At the nursing home, I did a lot of different activities with the
21、 residents ranging from Jeopardy, to Wheel of Fortune. One of my favorites was a word game where I would write a ten letter word on the board and the residents would try to come up with as many smaller words as possible. I could tell that it was one of their favorite games because they always seemed
22、 to be so enthusiastic when they playedI also transported residents to and from their rooms when they needed help; and whenever it was a nice day out, I would take them outside to get some fresh air and relax. On Saturday mornings, I would deliver the newspaper to the residents and on Sundays, I ass
23、isted with morning church services.The most unforgettable part of this experience was when I had one on one conversations with the residents; it was incredible how many great stories they had to tell. One of the first residents was Mr. Charles Bowman who is one hundred and three years old!36The auth
24、or volunteered at the nursing home because _.Ashe was willing to helpBthe residents needed herCshe was good with the oldDthe old people challenged her37What helped the author get over the challenge?AThe determination to do the voluntary work.BCommunicating with the residents.CThe residents smiling f
25、aces.DThe sense of achievements.38The author felt it _ to do the activities with the residents.AenjoyableBupsetCuncomfortableDchallenging39The author wrote the passage in order to _.Apersuade readers to care more about the oldBencourage readers to do voluntary workCdescribe a social problemDshare an
26、 experienceBMore and more pupils are giving teachers presents, but the practice only creates insecurity in parents and staff.Ive certainly noticed some pupils being feverishly overgenerous of late. Last year, I received not one bottle of wine but four for helping a disaffected pupil through his GCSE
27、s. By and large, my colleagues report the gifts differing along gender lines. Gentlemen get ties, mugs, booze and, if theyre really lucky, tickets to football matches. The ladies are often presented with flowers, jewels, chocolates and so on.When my son was at private school, I noticed there was a r
28、eal competitiveness between the students about giving presents to teachers, with expensive baskets from fancy stores and huge bouquets being handed out on the last days of term. Since my wife and I only let my son give thank-you cards, it was clear we were not “classy”. Now he is at an inner-city pr
29、imary, weve noticed that this kind of nonsense seems to have more or less disappearedFor one thing, there isnt that kind of money floating around but there isnt that kind of competitive culture either.Personally, I think gifts to teachers should be banned beyond the thank-you card they cause many mo
30、re problems than they solve, creating insecurity in both parents and staff. Perhaps the recession and the lack of money in peoples pockets might be a good excuse for the government to issue some guidelines to schools that gifts shouldnt be accepted by teachers.The gifts that I really value are the c
31、ards which say a genuine thank you. I still keep them in a file at home.40What can the author most probably be?AA teacher.BA school nurse.CA researcher. DA gift shop owner.41The underlined word “nonsense” in Paragraph 3 refers to the fact that _.Athe son only gives thank-you cards to teachersBthe au
32、thor and his wife are not classyCthe son goes to an inner-city primaryDthe students give gifts to teachers42To solve the problem, the author thinks its a good way to _.Aforbid the students to give any gifts to teachersBcreate insecurity by giving thank-you cardsCmake people have less money in pocket
33、sDissue some guidelines by the government43Which of the following can be the best title?ADont Forget to Give Gifts to Your TeachersBPresents Wont Make Pupils Teachers PetsCLearn the Competitive Culture of GiftsDRefuse Presents from Your StudentsCOn warm summer days with little or no wind, the air te
34、mperature in cities can be up to ten degrees higher than that of the surrounding countryside. This is a phenomenon commonly referred to as the “urban heat island” effect.This phenomenon happens when pavement, buildings, and other infrastructure （基础设施） replace natural land cover. Large amounts of pav
35、ed and dark colored surfacessuch as roofs, roads, and parking lotsabsorb, rather than reflect, the suns heat, causing surface temperatures and overall ambient （周围的） air temperature to rise. Unlike soil, paved areas contribute to runoff, which means that as paved areas increase, the amount of water a
36、vailable for evaporation （蒸发） decreases. Moreover, urban areas have fewer trees and less natural vegetation which help to control the heat by providing shade and blocking solar radiation. The surfaces of leaves also provide water for evaporation which cools the air, further worsening the heat island
37、 effect.In particular, during summer, more energy is required to cool the insides of building and for refrigeration, thereby creating additional heat output. This in turn leads to higher ambient air temperatures, which can also significantly increase the formation of urban smog in an area, degrading
38、 local air quality. Such a situation may directly affect public health with individuals more likely to suffer from heat exhaustion and the effects of asthma （哮喘）.44The underlined part in Paragraph 2 means _.ADue to dark colored roads, urban areas are becoming hotter each yearBDark colored surfaces r
39、eflect the suns heat, causing air temperatures to riseCBecause urban surfaces absorb heat, air and surface temperatures increaseDRising ambient air temperatures lead to urban surfaces absorbing more heat45Which of the following is not a cause of the urban heat island effect?AThe lack of treesBThe de
40、mand for refrigerationCThe blocking of solar radiationDThe construction of infrastructure.46The underlined word “degrading” most probably means _.AignoringBimprovingChighlightingDworsening47The passage is mainly developed by _.Agiving typical examplesBfollowing the time orderCpresenting the effect a
41、nd analyzing the causeDanalyzing a problem and seeking the solutionDThe U.S. governments push to decrease the nations output of greenhouse gases by increasing the fuel efficiency of the cars Americans drive is arousing again an emotional argument Does driving a small, fuel-efficient car make you mor
42、e likely to die on the road?Engineers and statistical analysts can point to data that suggest more-efficient cars dont necessarily put motorists at greater overall risk. But most of us care less about the “overall” risk than we do about ourselves. Driving a big Chevrolet Tahoe SUV makes many of us b
43、elieve we are safer than we would be in a smaller car even if statistical measures across a large population of vehicles and all kinds of car accidents suggest the advantage of safety isnt quite as wide as SUV owners believe.The Obama government has put the fuel-efficiency and safety question back o
44、n the front burner by calling for new-vehicle fuel economy to rise to an average of 35 miles per gallon （加仑） by 2020 from about 25 mpg today. That goal could move higher if the government decides to adopt Californias requirement to cut vehicle greenhouse-gas giving off, which would result in stricte
45、r mileage standards.Those moves, and the effects of last summers gas-price shock, are driving auto makers to offer cars such as the Toyota Yaris, Honda Fit and Daimler AGs Smart For Two which get the kind of mileage today that law says should be the average in a decade. Beyond that, auto makers will
46、 launch a wide range of new compact （紧凑的） vehicles, and decrease production of large, body-on-frame SUVs.Thats leading to new concerns about “green safety”, a term for managing the balance between reducing vehicle size for efficiency and adding safety and protection features that tend to make vehicl
47、es heavier and less efficient. Undoubtedly, further work has to be done before Americans make the choice.48The U.S. government requires to improve the fuel efficiency in order to _.Apush Americans to drive smaller carsBreduce the output of greenhouse gasesCdrive auto makers to produce fewer SUVsDcau
48、se Americans to make an argument49According to Paragraph 2, engineers and analysts idea _. Afails to relieve people of their worry about safetyBpersuades people to purchase smaller cars instead of SUVsCis based on research and therefore persuasive enough Dmakes people think of their safety as well a
49、s others50About the Obama governments new moves, the auto makers are _ and averageAmericans are _. Auncertain; positiveBdoubtful; uncertainCsupportive; positiveDpositive; uncertain51The best title for the text should be _.ANew Law Reduces Greenhouse Gases OutputBCan Small Cars Overcome Accident Fear
50、s?CNew Compact Cars Gets Popular in the U.S.DDo We Have to Follow the Government?EEveryone has some opinion about history, no matter how ill-informedWalking through a parking lot in a university in Miami, I noticed a bumper sticker （车尾贴纸） that said, “Ruin a Liberals （自由派） DayRecite Historical Fact!”
51、 But Marwick thinks this sort of opinion is just fine; it is unavoidable that we all feel a sense of ownership of history.History never stands still, as Marwick says at the beginning of The Nature of History, “The shape and content of history, too, vary according to the methods and materials availab
52、le to different generations.” Marwicks goal is to explain, in plain language, the changes in the way history is done up to the present; one method is to connect history with advances in the physical sciences. Marwick examines a number of case studies toward the end of the book. He ends the book with
53、 a refreshing collection of aphorisms （格言） about history. History truly belongs to each and every man and we all belong to history; with the proper education, history can be made more accessible to everyone.Marwick relates how inventions and the physical sciences have driven historical changes. Drop
54、ping a ball in a vacuum will reveal the same properties （性质） each time the experiment is conducted, providing the conditions are the same. But historians obviously do not have the luxury of reproducing such conditions; historians view the past through the present which depends on invention and scien
55、ce. By looking at the changing nature of history, Marwick feels the study progressing. Although Marwick suspects some people would accuse a historian of creating job security with the endless views of the past, he insists it is imperative based on the philosophy, science, and new materials of the ag
56、e. History, according to Marwick, must be for everyone and not remain locked behind the walls of academia.52The author mentions the bumper sticker in order to _.Ashow his own opinion about historyBintroduce the readers to MarwickCexplain the freedom of understanding historyDmake the readers know abo
57、ut the argument between historians53Which of the following best describes the statement “History never stands still”?AMarwick explains the changes in the way history is done up to the present.BMarwick connects history with advances in the physical sciences. CHe ends the book with a refreshing collec
58、tion of aphorisms about history.DThe shape and content of history vary according to the methods and materials available.54In paragraph 3, Marwick gives the example of dropping a ball in a vacuum to prove _.Athe changeable nature of history Bthe difficulty of historical studyCchangeable ways of histo

64、ps to take military training, which lasts about two weeks. We have to practice some simple military movements. In addition, we are taught to sing songs which are very encouraging. What impresses me most is the long march, which sometimes covers as far as ten kilometers. Military training is meant to teach us how to cooperate and act as a whole. Meanwhile, good qualities such as selflessness, dedication and perseverance can be cultivated and fear conqueredIn short, military training leaves me a deep impression and influences me profoundly, which is far beyond my imagination.
