30、he best of whatever you areBI count myself lucky to have survived two tough years of unemployment with increasing financial problems during the period after 9/11 right up to the SARS epidemic. My family had just returned from overseas as we were away for a year on study purposes. The situation was m
31、ade worse when we decided to buy a private house burdened with a mortgage loan. Although my wife works, it was tough to make ends meet with only one income. We also had a young daughter to raise. I faced sleepless nights trying to meet the minimum income payments for all my credit facilities especia
32、lly when the bank account dried up. There was an unforgettable day when my ATM bank account showed a balance of less than $20. The worst moments of my life came when I had to borrow cash from friends to tide over. This is when you realize who your true friends are and whether they will stand by you
33、when you are almost down and out. To this day, I am thankful to many who helped me financially in a willing manner.During that period, I hovered(彷徨)between desperation and panic. Naturally, relations with my wife were not the best. We often argued over financial matters. After about six months of un
34、employment, I realized the first step was to manage my emotional health above all else. I realized that, if I could manage my emotions better and stay positive, I had a better chance of coming out of my financial crisis. I also drew up a timetable so my days could pass by fruitfully. When one does n
35、ot work, one has much free time to idle and often negative thoughts flood our minds. I hope to share some personal experiences and strategies and, if possible, help some who are depressed and affected by the current financial crisis. I dare not say these strategies are surefire(必定成功的)solutions but a
36、t least they can provide hope to the depressed and fuel optimism in those who are unemployed.46. According to the text, what made the writers situation worse than ever before? A. The SARS epidemic B. The authors being out of workC. His familys return from overseas D. The mortgage loan of the house47
37、. Why did the author spend some sleepless nights? Because _. A. he could hardly make ends meet B. his wife was laid offC. he was suffering from sleep disorder D. the price was rising sharply.48.

40、erseas study experience D. the role your mind plays in your lifeC Famous centenarians (百岁老人) still active in arts, science are in no mood to retire. Those who stand still, die, is one of Oliveiras favorite phrases. He knows from experience what it means, as the Portuguese film director has reached t
41、he age of 102 and is still active in his profession. Every year, Oliveira shoots a film and is currently working on his next project. You have to work, work, work in order to forget that death is not far away, he said. When asked about his age, Oliveira said with some humility: Its down to mother na
42、ture. It gave to me what it took from others. Being both mentally and physically fit in old age is partly a matter of luck, but it also has something to do with character. Not every white-haired person is wise and social skills, openness and the ability to train the brain are essential for senior ci
43、tizens. Along with the architect Oscar Niemeyer (103), Nobel laureate Montalcini (101) and director Kurt Maetzig (100), Oliveira is one of those people of whom it would be very wrong to think as members of a listless elderly generation. Another master in his profession is the architect Oscar Niemeye
44、r. The 103-year-old Brazilian is best known for his futuristic-looking(未来派的)buildings in Brasilia, but he also speaks out on behalf of the poor. The role of the architect is to struggle for a better world where we can develop a form of architecture that serves everyone and not just a privileged few,
45、 said Niemeyer recently. He spends almost every day working in his office in Copacabana, and even when he falls ill he keeps working on ideas: After a gallbladder (胆囊) operation he composed a samba tune (桑巴舞曲) in the clinic. Another man who could sing a song about age is 107-year-old Heesters. The D
46、utch-born opera singer spent most of his life performing in Germany, where he still works. Recently Heesters said: I want to be at least 108-years-old. He also plans to keep performing. Should I just sit at home and wait until they come and pick me up? Heesters has not given up trying to add to his
47、tally of awards and is looking for a good stage role. Italian scientist Rita Levi-Montalcini, who is 101-year-old and is still active in medical science, has described the force that keeps driving her on: Progress is created through imperfection. In 1986 she and her lab colleague were awarded the No
48、bel Prize for Medicine for their work on nerve growth factor. Shes convinced that humans grow on challenges. With so many brilliant examples given, we can see clearly that age is no barrier to some high achievers. 51. From the first two paragraphs, we can see _. A. being active at 102 is achievable
49、for everybody B. Oliveira owes his long life to his mothers help C. being fit in old age is a matter of luck and character D. social skills and wisdom are difficult for the senior52. How many centenarians are mentioned in this passage? A. 4 B. 5 C. 6 D. 753. By saying Should I just sit at home and w
50、ait until they come and pick me up? Heesters shows us he _. A. wants to sit or lie in comfort B. is waiting for people to pick him up C. is willing to work till he dies D. prefers to give performance at home54. In the passage so many examples were given to show _. A. old age is a big problem if you
51、want to succeed B. as a senior citizen, you have to be open-minded and optimistic C. old people should never think of themselves as old D. old age can not prevent a great person from achieving a lot55. In the writers opinion, the architect Oscar Niemeyer is not _. A. sympathy B. pessimistic C. posit
52、ive D. diligentDMy favorite teachers name was “Dead-Eye” Bean. Her real name was Dorothy. She taught American history to eighth graders in the junior high section of Creston, the high school that served the north end of Grand Rapids, Mich. It was the fall of 1944. Franklin D. Roosevelt was president
53、; American troops were battling their way across France; Joe DiMaggio was still in the service; the Montgomery bus boycott was more than a decade away, and I was a 12-year-old black newcomer in a school that was otherwise all white. My mother, who had been a widow in New York, had married my stepfat
54、her, a Grand Rapids physician, the year before, and he had bought the best house he could afford for his new family. The problem for our new neighbors was that their neighborhood had previously been pristine(in their terms) and they were ignorant about black people. The prevailing wisdom in the neig
55、hborhood was that we were spoiling it and that we ought to go back where we belonged (or, alternatively, ought not to intrude where we were not wanted). There was a lot of angry talk among the adults, but nothing much came of it. But some of the kids, those first few weeks, were quite nasty. They th
56、rew stones at me, chased me home when I was on foot and spat on my bike seat when I was in class. For a time, I was a pretty lonely, friendless and sometimes frightened kid. I was just transplanted from Harlem, and here in Grand Rapids, the dominant culture was speaking to me insistently. I can see
57、now that those youngsters were bullying and I was culturally disadvantaged. I knew then that they were bigoted(偏执的), but the culture spoke to me more powerfully than my mind and I felt ashamed for being different a nonstandard person. I now know that Dorothy Bean understood most of that and disappro
58、ved of it. So things began to change when I walked into her classroom. She was a pleasant-looking single woman, who looked old and wrinkled to me at the time, but who was probably about 40. Whereas my other teachers approached the problem of easing in their new black pupil by ignoring him for the fi
59、rst few weeks, Mrs. Bean went right at me. On the morning after having read our first assignment, she asked me the first question. I later came to know that in Grand Rapids, she was viewed as a person who believed, among other things, that Negroes were equal. I answered her question and the follow-u
60、p. They werent brilliant answers, but they did establish the fact that I had read the assignment and that I could speak English. Later in the hour, when one of my classmates had failed to give an answer, Miss. Bean came back to me with a question that required me to clean up the girls mess and estab
61、lished me as a smart person. Thus, the teacher began to give me human dimensions, though not perfect ones for an eighth grader. It was somewhat better to be a teachers pet than merely a dark presence in the back of the room. A few days later, Miss Bean became the first teacher ever to require me to
62、think. She asked my opinion about something Jefferson had done. In those days, all my opinions were derivative(缺乏独创性的). I was for Roosevelt because my parents were and I was for the Yankees because my older buddy from Harlem was a Yankee fan. Besides, we didnt have opinions about historical figures
63、like Jefferson. Like our high school building or Mayor Welch, he just was. After I stared at her for a few seconds, she said: “Well, should he have bought Lousiana or not?” “I guess so,” I replied tentatively. “Why?” she shot back. Why? What kind of question was that, I complained silently. But I ve
64、ntured an answer. Day after day, she kept doing that to me, and my answers became stronger and more confident. She was the first teacher to give me the sense that thinking was part of education and that I could form opinions that had some value. Her final service to me came on a day when my mind was
65、 wandering and I was idly digging my pencil into the writing surface on the arm of my chair. Miss Bean suddenly threw a hunk of gum eraser at me. By amazing chance, it hit my hand and sent the pencil flying. She gasped, and I crept(爬) shamefacedly after my pencil as the class roared. That was the ic
66、e breaker. Afterward, kids came up to me to laugh about “Old Dead-Eye Bean.” The incident became a legend, and I, a part of that story, became a person to talk to.56. Why did the author moved to Grand Rapids? A. Because his mother was a widow. B. Because he knew Miss Bean was in Creston, Grand Rapid
67、s. C. Because his mother got married to a physician in Grand Rapids. D. Because black people could live anywhere they liked at that time.57. When the author first moved to Grand Rapids, the other kids_. A. talked to him a lot B. were friendly to him C. were unkind to him D. were curious about him an
68、d liked talking with him58. Which of the following is not the help the author got from Miss Bean? A. She punished the naughty boys who were rude to him. B. She established him as a smart person in front of his classmates. C. She helped him to form his own opinions. D. She eased his relationship with
69、 his classmates. 59. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Most people were friendly to black people at that time. B. My classmates laughter hurt me when Miss Bean threw a piece of eraser to me. C. The authors most teachers just ignored him for the first few weeks. D. The authors answers in his first c
70、lass made him a smart person in his classmates eyes.60. Which question is NOT answered in the story? A. Why did the author like Miss Bean? B. Why did Miss Bean throw an eraser at the author? C. Where did Miss Bean grow up? D. Had Miss Bean got married?第二节:阅读下面的短文并从方框中的 A-F 中为每段文字选出最佳标题。下面文章中有5处需要添加小
71、标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E、F)中选出符合各段意思的小标题,并在答题纸上将相应的选项标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。A. The spreading teaB. The history of tea growingC. Changes of tastes for drinks D. Reducing cancer risksE. The plant Camellia Sinensis F. A womans opinion of tea61. _Americans are far more knowledgeable about drinks than they were 20
72、years ago. Witness the Starbucks revolution and youll know where the trend goes. Now, encouraged by recent studies suggesting that it can cut the risk of cancer and heart disease and slow the aging process, tea is enjoying a similar change. Enough fashionable tea houses are springing up to make even
73、 longtime coffee drinkers consider switching drinks.62. _Tea is available in more places than ever. The Tea Association of the United States reports that from 1990 to 1999, annual sales of the drink grew to $ 4.6 billion from $ 1.8 billion. “Green tea is seen by consumers as a functional food” - del
74、ivering health benefits beyond food itself, says Vierhile.63. _Recently published studies point out that only teas that come from the leaves of the plant Camellia Sinensis have been shown to contain health benefits. Other herbal teas may taste good, yet they do little more than warm up the drinker.
75、But for Camellia Sinensis, the evidence is powerful. In a 1998 study, Harvard University researchers found that drinking one cup of black tea a day lowered the risk of heart attack by as much as 44 percent compared with non-tea drinkers, and others studies have suggested that the antioxidants(抗氧化剂)
76、in these so-called real teas can also prevent cancer.64. _One such antioxidant in green tea is ECGC, a compound 20 times as powerful as vitamin E and 200 times as powerful as vitamin C. “When people ask me for something good and cheap they can do to reduce their cancer risk, I tell them to drink rea
77、l tea,” says Mitchell Gaynor, director of medical oncology at New York Citys Strange-Cornell Cancer Prevention Center.65. _Among those inspired to become a green tea drinker is Tess Ghilaga, a New York writer who took it up after seeking advice from a nutritionist six years ago. “Ive never been a co
78、ffee drinker,” says Ghilaga, 33. “She told me to start drinking green tea for the antioxidant qualities.” Now Ghilaga and her husband habitually make tea - they order theirs from InPursuitof T, an Internet tea company. And although tea contains about half the amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee, “
79、you still get such a kick from it,” says Ghilaga.II卷(非选择题部分:共40分)第三部分:写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节:短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分) 下面短文中有10处语言错误。请在有错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词。增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(),并在下面加上该加的词。删除:把多余的词用斜线()划掉。修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写上修改后的词。注意:1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词; 2. 只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。Senior three student will face a pro
