10、,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AI work in a nursing home and my job is to take care of the elderlyThis year, a very sweet old lady that I cared for,Alice, had gone through a difficult time. She got dementia and so she had been in the hospital twice. In November, I was finally
11、 able to get her back to her“home”Alice had thought her daughter was coming to visit her on Christmas day and that they were going to have the whole family together like the old days. When she finally realized that happy moment was not going to happen,she was very sadKnowing that her daughter was co
12、ming after Christmas was not enough to make her feel happy,I hated the idea of her being alone on the holiday!On Christmas Eve,I gave her a surprise by asking if she could like to go to a candlelight service at church that night. Instead of taking her to my church,I took her to her old neighborhood
13、church where all her friends were. We got there early and I got her a seat where her friends could see her as they came inThen soon some of her friends came to the church and they rushed over to greet her and sit with herThe candlelight service was beautiful and Alice got a lot of love from her old
14、and new friends there. The truth of the story is that I am the one who got the best gift: the smile on Alices face.21.The underlined word“dementia”in Paragraph 2 probably is_Aa house Ba letter Can illness Da plan22. Where did Alice spend her Christmas Eve according to the story?AIn her old house B.
15、In her old neighborhood churchCIn the nursing homeD. In the hospital23. What was the best gift that the author got on Christmas Eve?AThe candlelight service BPraise from Alices friendsCAlices happiness DThanks from Alices daughter24What is the best title for this passage?AA special candlelight Chris
16、tmas Eve BThe dream of an old lonely ladyCMy special job DThe true loveB Hundreds of years ago, news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in s
17、econds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, either by watching TV or reading newspapers.Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspape
18、r editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look
19、at the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV.Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People dont want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example, n
20、ewspapers never print stories about planes landing safely. Instead, they print stories about plane accidents.Another factor(因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in the
21、ir own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.25According to the passage, how do people learn about news stories in the world now?A. They carry news stories and tell others from place to plac
22、e on foot or by horse.B. They tell each other what they have seen with their eyes.C. They watch TV or read newspapers.D. They listen to the radio every day.26The difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that _.A. people can learn more about the same news story from a newspaperB. p
23、eople can read news stories more quickly in a newspaperC. people can read news stories in other countriesD. people can read news stories about their own country27To make a good newspaper story, how many factors does the passage talk about?A. Two. B. Three. C. Five. D. Six.28According to the passage,
24、 which of the following can you most possibly watch on TV?A. You often play football with your friends after school.B. Your teacher has got a cold.C. A tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasnt been caught.D. The bike in front of your house is lost.CTop Four Ways to Build a Wonderful Life1. Live B
25、elow Your MeansThere will always be temptation to give up the future for immediate pleasure. We all want to buy that new piece of technology, treat ourselves to an expensive night on the town, or take out a loan for the flashy car we cant afford. It might feel great at the time but unwise spending h
26、urts a lot later on. Enjoy lifes simple pleasures and save as much as you can. Expensive things dont create lasting happiness and security. Careful spending will bring you greater leisure(安逸) and enjoyment in the long run.2. Put Your Money to WorkSaving is great, but to make the most of your money,
27、you need to put it to work. Good investments can be the difference between retiring in your 40s or in your 60s. A post today at The Simple Dollar really got me thinking. According to Trents estimates, if a person in their early 20s invests 20% of their income in an S&P index fund, the interest they
28、earn will equal their current salary when they reach their early 40s. They could retire without a drop in income! Wise investing is the surest path to financial independence and its something everyone can work on. Its definitely an area Ill be devoting more attention to in my personal life.3. Educat
29、e YourselfTo be happy, we need continuous growth. The best way to grow is life-long education. This doesnt mean you need to pursue a doctorate or spend 2 hours reading every day. Self-education can be anything that takes you out of your comfort zone. The important part is keeping an open mind and se
30、arching for fresh ideas and perspectives(看法). Education builds over time. It might feel like the bits of wisdom you acquire dont mean much, but over the years they add up to form a wiser, kinder, more interesting person.4. Develop Lasting Personal RelationshipsSuppose you had everything you wanted.
31、Would you be happy without anyone to share it with? The personal relationships we develop with friends and family members are the greatest source of happiness in our lives. Dont forget about them. Taking the time to cultivate and enjoy personal relationships is essential to long-term happiness. With
32、out the people you care about, youll probably be miserable, no matter how successful you become.29According to the passage, in order to achieve financial independence after retirement, wed better _.A. get along well with our family and friendsB. bring ourselves leisure as well as enjoymentC. invest
33、our money wisely when we are youngD. learn some new skills and try to find a new job30From the passage, we can infer that some people try to _.A. gain happiness by buying themselves expensive thingsB. save everything they can to help those in needC. devote more attention to their personal lifeD. tak
34、e out a loan to promote technology31The author of the passage may agree that the key to self-education is _.A. gaining as many degrees as possible B. being open to new ideas and viewsC. only focusing on very big events D. creating long-term happiness32The above passage is written in order to _.A. ex
35、plain what true happiness is aboutB. offer ways to achieve a happy and successful lifeC. introduce different definitions about happinessD. persuade readers to find out the meaning of lifeDExperts believe that there are about 40,000 different types of jobs in the world. Choosing the right one is a di
36、fficult task. “Finding a job” is not the same as “choosing a job”. Many young people end up in a job that they are not suited to do. “Chance” may play a more important part than “decision”. So here are a few steps to help you think about jobs. First, it is important to recognize what kind of person
37、you are and what special qualities make you different from everyone else. The most important thing is to know your interests and skills. But the point is that there is a difference between an interest and a skill. If you like art and enjoy looking at pictures, it is an interest. But if you can draw
38、a horse that looks like a horse rather than a big dog, that is a skill. The best job is one that uses your skills in doing something together with your interests. In addition to this, it is an advantage if you believe that a particular job is worth doing in the world. To examine your skills and abil
39、ities still further, ask yourself this question: in the following three areasskills with people, skills with information or skills with things which are your best skills? After that, the next step is research. To find out as much as possible about different kinds of work, go to the library and read
40、books, magazines and newspapers. Ask your friends about the work they do. If you are interested in banking, it is better to talk to a bank clerk of twenty-four, rather than a bank manager of sixty-four. Do not ask your parents friends for information. A younger person will be able to describe a norm
41、al day at work and tell you about the interesting or boring things when you first start working. Finally, trust your own ideas and your own thinking! It is your own life, so find something that you enjoy doing. 33. What is the first step to find a job that suits you well? A. The first step is to com
42、pletely know yourself and your special qualities which make you different from everyone else. B. The first step is to find out as much as possible about different kinds of work. C. The first step is to ask your friends to talk about the work they do. D. The first step is to consider your parents adv

A. going to the library and referring to books B. asking your friends to give you some information C. asking for the advice of your parents friends D. talking to a younger person who is at work for information 3
44、5. If you are interested in banking, you should talk to a bank clerk of twenty-four instead of a bank manager of sixty-four because_. A. a young bank clerk will be able to describe a special day at work B. a young bank clerk is a full-time worker and can tell you about the interesting or boring thin
45、gs at work C. it is easier to find a bank clerk than to find a bank managerD. a young bank clerk is easier to get along with 第二节 (共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。Once there was a very poor villager.
