However, life can be 36 when you are not busy f
18、inding fault with it.Several years ago I 37 a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always 38 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and 39 was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with h
19、er friends. She became a really 40 person.Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 41 Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost 42 to deal with was that the day before the 43 , Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 44 o
20、f boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 45 It wasnt until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 46 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 47 everything so harshly (
21、 刻薄) . She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her 48 as well.Perhaps most of us arent as extreme at fault-finding, 49 when were honest, we can be sharply 50 of the world. Im not suggesting you 51 problems, or that you pretend things are 52 than they are, but simply that you learn
22、to allow things to be as they are 53 most of the time, and especially when its not a really big 54 .Train yourself to bite your tongue , and with a little 55 , youll get really good at letting things go.

26、rectors Nick Park and Steve Box with their amazing plasticine(粘土) characters Wallace and Gromit. It won an Oscar in 2006, and if you watch it, youll understand why. Its an absolutely brilliant cartoon comedy.Cheese-loving inventor Wallace and his brainy dog Gromit have started a company to protect t
27、he towns vegetables from hungry rabbits. However, just before the annual Giant Vegetable Competition, an enormous rabbit begins terrorising the town. It is attacking all the vegetables and destroying everything in its path. The competition organizer, Lady Tottington, hires Wallace and Gromit to catc
28、h the monster alive. But they will have to find the were-rabbit before gun-crazy hunter Victor Quartermaine who is desperate to kill it.The screenplay is witty and full of amusing visual jokes. As usual, the voice of Peter Sallis is absolutely perfect for the role of Wallace, and Gromit is so beauti
29、fully brought to life, he can express a huge range of emotions without saying a word. And both Helena Bonham-Carter, who plays the part of Lady Tottington, and Ralph Fiennes as Victor are really funny.To sum up, The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is an amazing film which is suitable for both children and
30、adults. If you liked Wallace and Gromits previous adventures and you appreciate the British sense of humour, youll love this film. Dont miss it!56According to the film review, “monster” （paragraph B） refers to _.Aa gun-crazy hunterBa brainy dogCa scary rabbitDa giant vegetable57Which of the followin
31、g is a reason why the writer recommends the film?AIts full of wit and humour.BIts characters show feelings without words.CIt is an adventure film directed by Peter Sallis.DIt is about the harmony between man and animals.BThe other morning on the subway I sat next to an attractive young blonde woman
32、who was reading something on her iPad. She was very well-dressed, carrying a Prada bag with tastefully applied make-up indeed, she had an unmistakable air of wealth, material success and even authority. I suspected she worked as a highly-paid Wall Street lawyer or stockbroker or something of that so
33、rt. So, I was curious to see what she was so focused on. The Wall Street Journal perhaps? The Economist?Quite the contrary; rather, she was concentrating on a romance novel. Then I realized that I have known many women who love romance novelssmart, attractive, successful, “liberated,” modern females
34、 who nonetheless find some kind of deep satisfaction and thrill from those hyper-romantic, artificial and extremely unrealistic tales of handsome, manly heroes falling in love with virginal women, enduring a series of adventures, then no doubt having a happy ending.These romance stories are to liter
35、ature what hot dogs are to fine food. Yet, the genre(体裁) remains enormously popular. Consider some of these surprising statistics from the good folks at the Romance Writers of America (RWA):*More than 9,000 romance titles were released last year, with sales of about $1.44 billion (more than triple t
36、he revenues generated by classic literary fiction).*More than 90 percent of the market are women (okay, thats not at all surprising).* Readers are typically women between the ages 30 and 54 who are themselves involved in a romantic relationship (betraying the stereotype that only lonely women long f
37、or these tales of love and adventure).*Almost 40 percent of romance book consumers have an annual income of between $50,000 and $99,900 (placing them firmly in the middle class).I had thought that romance novels accounted for a very small share of the literary market, so I was quite surprised that t
38、his part has such enormous popularity. But I must wonder why so many womenforty years after the womens liberation movement continue to indulge in the fanciful tales?Im not sure if it represents a kind of “rejection” of the womens liberation movement, but clearly something is missing in the lives of
39、contemporary ladies. A romance author named Donna Hatch who focuses on the Regency period (early 19th century Britain) explained the appeal of such books this way: “Regency men were civilized and treated women with courtesy. When a lady entered the room, gentlemen stood, doffed their hats, offered a
40、n arm, bowed, and a hundred other little things I wish men still did today. But they were also very athletic; they hunted, raced, boxed, rode horses. They were manly. Strong. Noble. Honorable. And that is why I love them!”Mrs. Hatch may have expressed the secret desires and attitudes of untold milli
41、ons of her peers-that is, in the early 21st century, have women grown tired of the burdens and expectations that the “freedoms” they have gained give them? Is this a rejection of modern feminism? Do women long for days of old when men were masculine gentlemen and women were feminine and protected as
42、 precious treasures and regarded as possessions?Perhaps most women (even the ones who get lost in romance novels) do not want to go all the way back but it is obvious, .58What is the function of the opening paragraph?A. To summarize the whole passage.B. To prove the authors argument.C. To lead in th
43、e main topic of the passage.D. To raise problems that will be solved later.59What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph imply?A. Romance novels are satisfying and thrilling.B. Romance novels are not of much “nutrition”.C. Romance novels are as popular as hot dogs.D. Romance novels are
44、an essential part of contemporary life.60In the authors opinion, what is missing in the lives of contemporary women? A. Authority. B. Dignity. C. Liberty. D. Care.61Which sentence can be put in the blank in the last paragraph?A. they prefer tales of innocent romance to classicsB. they are unhappy wi
45、th how the world has turned outC. true love described in romance novels does exist in realityD. romance novels provide them with an access to societyCExercise seems to be good for the human brain, with many recent studies suggesting that regular exercise improves memory and thinking skills. But an i
46、nteresting new study asks whether the apparent cognitive benefits from exercise are real or just a placebo effect that is, if we think we will be “smarter” after exercise, do our brains respond accordingly? The answer has significant implications for any of us hoping to use exercise to keep our mind
47、s sharp throughout our lives.While many studies suggest that exercise may have cognitive benefits, recently some scientists have begun to question whether the apparently beneficial effects of exercise on thinking might be a placebo effect. So researchers at Florida State University in Tallahassee an
48、d the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign decided to focus on expectations, on what people anticipate that exercise will do for thinking. If peoples expectations jibe (吻合) closely with the actual benefits, then at least some of those improvements are probably a result of the placebo effect an
49、d not of exercise.For the new study, which was published last month in PLOS One, the researchers recruited 171 people through an online survey system, they asked half of these volunteers to estimate by how much a stretching and toning regimens (拉伸运动) performed three times a week might improve variou
50、s measures of thinking. The other volunteers were asked the same questions, but about a regular walking program.In actual experiments, stretching and toning program generally have little if any impact on peoples cognitive skills. Walking, on the other hand, seems to substantially improve thinking ab
51、ility.But the survey respondents believed the opposite, estimating that the stretching and toning program would be more beneficial for the mind than walking. The estimates of benefits from walking were lower.These data, while they do not involve any actual exercise, are good news for people who do e
52、xercise. “The results from our study suggest that the benefits of aerobic exercise are not a placebo effect,” said Cary Stothart, a graduate student in cognitive psychology at Florida State University, who led the study.If expectations had been driving the improvements in cognition seen in studies a
53、fter exercise, Mr. Stothart said, then people should have expected walking to be more beneficial for thinking than stretching. They didnt, implying that the changes in the brain and thinking after exercise are physiologically genuine.The findings are strong enough to suggest that exercise really doe
54、s change the brain and may, in the process, improve thinking, Mr. Stothart said. That conclusion should encourage scientists to look even more closely into how, at a molecular level, exercise remodels the human brain, he said. It also should encourage the rest of us to move, since the benefits are,
55、it seems, not imaginary, even if they are in our head.62Which of the following about the placebo effect is TRUE according to the passage? A. It occurs during exercise. B. It has cognitive benefits. C. It is just a mental reaction. D. It is a physiological response. 63Why did the researchers at the t
56、wo universities conduct the research? A. To discover the placebo effect in the exercise. B. To prove the previous studies have a big drawback. C. To test whether exercise can really improve cognition. D. To encourage more scientists to get involved in the research. 64What can we know about the resea
57、rch Cary Stothart and his team carried out? A. They employed 171 people to take part in the actual exercise. B. The result of the research removed the recent doubt of some scientists. C. The participants thought walking had a greater impact on thinking ability. D. Their conclusion drives scientists
58、to do research on the placebo effect. 65What might be the best title for the passage? A. Is it necessary for us to take exercise? B. How should people exercise properly? C. What makes us smarter during exercise? D. Does exercise really make us smarter? DRosemary sat at her kitchen table, working a c
59、rossword puzzle. Crosswords were nice; they filled the time, and kept the mind active. She needed just one word to complete this mornings puzzle; the clue was “a Swiss river,” and the first of its three letters was “A”. Unfortunately, Rosemary had no idea what the name of river was, and could not lo
60、ok it up. Her atlas was on her desk, and the desk was in the guest room, currently being occupied by her grandson Victor.Looking up over the tops of her glasses, Rosemary glanced at the kitchen clock: it was almost 10 a.m. Land sakes! Did the boy intend to sleep all day? She noticed the pain in her
61、wrist again, and put down her pen. Anyhow, at 87 years of age, she was glad she could still write at all. She had decided long ago that growing old was like slowly turning to stone; you couldnt take anything for granted. She stood up slowly, painfully, and started walking to the guest room.The trip,
62、 though only a distance of about 25 feet, seemed to take a long while. Rosemary arrived at the door to the guest room. It stood slightly open, and she looked through the opening. Victor lay sleeping on his side, his arms bent, his expression slightly pained. Get up, lazy bones, she wanted to say. Ev
63、en in childhood, Rosemary had never slept past 4 a.m.; there were too many chores to do. How different things were for Victors generation! Her youngest grandson behaved as if he had never done a chore in his life. Twenty-one years old, he had driven down to Florida to visit Rosemary in his shiny new
64、 car, a gift from his dear parents. Victor would finish college soon, and his future appeared bright if he ever got out of bed, that is.Something Victor had said last night over dinner had disturbed her. Now what was it? Oh yes; he had been talking about one of his college courses a “gut”，he had cal
65、led it. When she had asked him to explain the word, Victor had said it was a course that you took simply because it was easy to pass. Rosemary, who had not even had a high school education, found the word unpleasant. If she had been allowed to continue her studies, she would never have taken a “gut”
66、 .The memory flooded back then, still painful as an open wound all these years later. It was the first day of high school. She had graduated from grammar school the previous year, but her father had forbidden her to go to high school that autumn, saying she was needed on the farm. After much tearful
67、 begging, she had gotten him to promise that next year, she could start high school. She had endured a whole year of chores instead of books, with animals and rough farmhands for company instead of people of her own age. Now, at last, the glorious day was at hand. She had put on her best dress (she
68、owned two), her heart racing hopefully.But her father was waiting for her as she came downstairs.“Where do you think youre going?” he asked.“To high school, Papa.”“No youre not. Take that thing off and get back to work. ”“But Papa, you promised!”“Do as I say!” he thundered.There was no arguing with
69、Papa when he spoke that way. Tearfully, she had to drag herself upstairs to change clothes. Rosemary still wondered what her life would have been like if her father had not been waiting at the bottom of the stairs that day, or if somehow she had found the strength to disobey him.Suddenly, Victor mov
70、ed slightly, without waking, and whispered something unintelligible. Waken from her daydreaming, Rosemary stared at Victor. She wondered if he were having a nightmare.66By saying “if he ever got out of bed” (Para. 3) Rosemary thought Victor was_. A. too tired to get up B. promising but lazy C. impol
71、ite to oversleep D. old enough to help with chores67Why did Rosemary dislike Victors use of the word “gut”? A. Because it showed that Victor didnt take education seriously. B. Because it reminded Rosemary of her grammar school classes. C. Because it indicated that college courses were too easy to pa
72、ss. D. Because it implied that Rosemary was lacking in high school education.68The year after Rosemary graduated from grammar school was_. A. used for reading and writing B. ruined by illness and hardship C. spent entirely away from her fellows D. filled with travel and adventure69Rosemarys memory o
73、f the day when she finally prepared to start high school indicates that_ A. she had already decided to take up a job B. she had hesitated over her choice of clothes C. she had done especially well in grammar school D. she had strongly desired to continue her education70The passage as a whole is main
74、ly about _. A. whether Rosemary will go up to wake Victor up B. Rosemarys struggle to keep painful memories C. Rosemarys concern for Victors study D. whether Rosemary should fight for her schooling opportunity第卷（非选择题 两部分 共35分）第四部分 任务型阅读（共10个小题，每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：请将

Sometimes life deals us a difficult hand, and events and trials arise that we have no control over. Other times it is our own actions themse
76、lves that cause our trials. Regardless of the nature of our trials, disappointment is part of lifes journey and how we deal with it will largely determine the quality of our life. Here are some steps to help us to make our journey more enjoyable. Firstly, redefine our rules. It is assumed that every
77、one has an internal “rule” in their mind. If our internal rules are too perfect, then they will discourage us greatly. For example, if we have a rule that says we need to be perfect, it is likely that we will spend a large amount of time feeling sad and disappointed. So when we feel disappointed, it
78、 is wise to review and redefine our rules. Want an example of an encouraging rule? Try this one: I am happy and I am successful since I have made my greatest efforts. Secondly, remind ourselves now and then of the reasons why we are seeking the very goal. As a matter of fact, there are many cases wh
79、ere we have forgotten our original purposes along the way. So it is of great help to remember the reasons why we are committed to a path in the first place when we feel down. By revisiting those reasons, we will likely renew our commitment and not get hung up on the disappointment of the moment. Thi
80、rdly, think about our larger vision and recommit to it. Disappointment is merely a setback on what will eventually be a great and inspiring journey. So when we have those momentary setbacks, it is helpful to think about our larger vision and recommit to it. In our larger vision, therefore, a disappo
81、intment is a very valuable experience, which serves as a good educator and makes us more able to meet the challenges of the future. Finally, reset and have a new start. Resetting and starting anew prevents us from abandoning ourselves to self-pity and forces us to get up and move forward. Dont live
82、in the past. Take what the past has taught us and keep moving. Wake up the very next day as if our whole life is ahead of us and we have the chance to start fresh. Nothing that happened in the past can stop us from creating the life that we have always desired or from accomplishing the goals that we
83、 are seeking.

In one voyage , it was just his willpower that made him save all the passengers lives .
99、The story reminds me of my classmate , Linda . In study , she lagged far behind us , but she did not give up . Instead , she kept a notebook in her pocket , and took it out to read on the bus , at the school gate and in the queue before the dining hall . Unluckily , her English did not improve much
100、. She took up this challenge and worked even harder , and she examined her learning methods . Besides , she kept turning to the teacher for help . Finally she made great progress . Many elements contribute to success , of which the most important is willpower . A clever man might not hold on to the end . But a man of strong will never gives up before any difficulty , nor does he lose heart whatever happens . So I think willpower is more important than intelligence on the road to success .
