第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A Dear Ms. Wang, I am writing to inform you of some arrangements about my composition course and Latin course next year. I’ve decided to re-establish the 5-paragraph essay as the goal for the composition course. I interviewed some of my former students and they all agreed that being able to write critically and continuously was important to them. So next academic year, Term 1 will be like always: sentences to paragraphing. And Term 2 will work toward the 5-paragraph essay. The final 3 weeks of Term 2 will be reserved to introduce writing for TOEFL and CEE. By that time, if the students have done their job correctly, then they should be able to write quite well. As for the Latin course, I will post notices around campus next week so that the students will understand what’s on offer before I actually introduce the course. A number of students already emailed me about the course. I am sure you don't understand what a big deal our opening this program at our school is. People around the world are interested in what we plan to do. There are many rewards available to the students who succeed in the course. Please share what I have said with the administration. I want them to understand the importance of this course. The reason why, I have contacted these

B. Go to their rooms.

C. Change some

B. In a hotel.

C. In a shopping

colleagues (actually Oxford contacted me) is that I have confidence in our students and in myself. I know that when those professors meet our students and hear them speaking and reading Latin, they are going to be amazed. It will open all sorts of doors for students that they never even thought of to knock on. Well, that’s it for now. I’ll see you soon. Yours, Edward Johnson 21. According to the letter, what will Edward teach about writing in Term 1? A. Critical thinking.

C. 5-paragraph essay.

B. Sentences to paragraphing.

D. Writing for TOEFL and CEE. 22. We can learn from the letter that Edward’s Latin course

. A. has aroused students’ interest

C. has won a number of awards

B. enjoys a nationwide reputation D. benefits anyone who takes it 23. Why does Edward write this letter? A. To apply for the teaching position. B. To show his achievements in Latin. C. To inform the school of his course plans. D. To seek assistance from the administration. B A Guide to the University Food The TWU Cafeteria is open 7am to 8pm.

When with close friends, she becomes a leader who laughs loudly and chants, “Girls rule, boys drool.” But when that comfort zone is not around her, she is shy and nervous.

This has been challenging for me at times. “Shy” is not a word that I think has ever been used to describe me. But this has been a year of firsts for my girl that-has filled her with a new sense of confidence. This year she moved to lap lane in swimming where she was preparing for a swim team. This year she learned to ride a bike without training wheels. And this year she completed her first kids’ triathlon (三项全能). On Saturday, with a thunderstorm coining soon and my son’s birthday party later in the day，we all went out in the dark of the morning for Kelly to participate in her first triathlon. We practiced transitions from swim to bike to run with her. we got all the equipment she'd need, and we kept talking about the race. But as we waited the two hours for the older kids to finish before her turn, she held my leg a little harder and told me she loved me a few too many times. She was nervous but trying to keep it together. And then it was her turn. From the second she jumped into the water, my heart soared. My daughter transformed into the most confident human being I had ever seen. She dominated(主宰) that swim, crushed that bike ride and ran to the finish with the biggest smile on her face. I can honestly say that I never felt so proud of someone in my entire life. It wasn’t because she did a sport or anything like that. It was because she was afraid of something and conquered (克服) that fear with confidence and a fire I hadn’t seen before.

All day I would find myself just looking over at her and smiling. She might be wearing the finalist medal but I felt like I won that day. I won the chance to see my girl shine. Shine on, sweet baby.

28. Kelly is nervous when

. A. situations are new to her

C. she changes into a leader

B. boys are around her D. she is away from her mom 29. We can know from Paragraph 3

. A. the race began in the early morning B. the whole family gave Kelly support C. Kelly was eager for her turn in the race D. Kelly prepared for her brother’s birthday party

30. Seeing Kelly’s performance in the race, the author felt

B. anxious and uneasy D. worried and hesitant C. curious and concerned 31. The author “felt like I won that day” because Kelly

. A. expressed love to her C. took part in the sport

D The oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples. First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presents its own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny balled (芭蕾) dancer. “I’m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be wrapped up.”

On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to pedal violently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon dioxide you exhale (呼气) has a tendency to form an invisible (隐形的) cloud around you head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache. Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat, “Your inner ear thinks your’re falling. Meanwhile your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying—that’s why some people feel

7

B. won the gold medal D. overcame the fear

sick.” Within a couple days—truly terrible days for some —astronauts, brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears. Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronauts return home, and, more importantly, how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars. 32. What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space? A. Deciding on a proper sleep position B. Choosing a comfortable sleeping bag C. Seeking a way to fall asleep quickly D. Finding a right time to go to sleep. 33. The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when

. A. the y circle around on their bikes B. they use microcomputers without a stop C. they exercise in one place for a long time D. they watch a movie while pedaling 34. Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because

. A. their senses stop working B. they have to stand up straight C. they float out of their seats unexpectedly D. whether they are able to go back to the station 35. One of the NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is

. A. how much exercise they do on the station B. how they can remain healthy for long in space C. Whether they can recover after returning home D. whether they are able to go back to the station 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

Little Habits Make a Big Difference Everything around us is changing at amazing speed, it seems-but some things will always remain the same.

36

. Some of our dally habits have the power to always give us happiness and lead toward success. Here are some little habits that can make a big difference: 1.

My class and I visited Chris Care Center in Phoenix, Arizona to comfort the old people who

9

needed a little cheering up during the holiday season. The first two

41

there were for persons requiring help in taking care of themselves. We sang

42

for them. They loved our sweet songs and the flowers that we left with them. As we were

43

on the third floor for old people with Alzheimer (老年痴呆症), most of them

44

off at the walls or floor. However, one lady

45

my eyes. She was sitting by the door, in a wheelchair, singing songs to herself. They weren’t the songs that we were singing, at least they didn’t

46

like that. As we got

47

with each festive song she did as well. The louder we got, the louder she got.

48

she was singing, she was also

49

out to us with her hands and body. I knew that I should have gone over to her, but I thought that my

50

were to my students. People who worked at the care center could

51

to her, I thought. Just when I stopped feeling

52

about not giving her the attention she needed, one of my students, Justin, showed me what the holiday season is really about. Justin also

53

the same lady. The difference between us is that he

54

on her needs, but I didn’t. During the last song, “Silent Night,” Justin walked over to her and held her hand. He looked this aged lady in her

55

and with his actions said, “You are important, and I will take my

56

to let you know that.”

This tired, elderly lady stopped singing and held his hand. Then she touched his cheek with the other hand. Tears began to fall down her face. No

57

can completely describe that touching moment... It

58

a boy to teach me, a man, about kindness and love. Justin’s example of a complete, selfless attitude toward another was a

59

that I will never forget. He was the teacher that day, and I consider myself

60

to have witnessed his lesson. 41. A. rooms

When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people walking dogs.

61

is still true that a dog is

62

(use) and faithful animal in the world.

63

the reasons why people keep a dog

64

(change). In the old days people used to train dogs to protect themselves against animal attacks. And later they came

65

(realize) that a dog was not only useful for protection but willing to obey his master. For example, when people used dogs for hunting, the dogs would not eat

66

they caught without

67

(permit). But now people in the city need not protect

68

(they) against attacks of animals. Why do they keep dogs, then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery.

11

But the most important reason is for companionship. For

69

child, a dog is his best friend when he has no friends to play with. For a young couple, a dog is their child when they have

70

children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship. 61.

in 书面表达参考范文

Dear Mr. Headmaster, I am Li Hua, a student from Xinhua high school, Senior II. I am writing to draw your attention to some improper behavior among us students: littering and scribbling, which makes our school dirty and unpleasant. And it does harm to the image of our school. I always feel ashamed whenever I see this. It is clearly not appropriate for a student to litter and scribble about. I wonder if the school could place more dustbins around and set up specific rules against such behavior. At the same time, students should be encouraged to develop good habits and behave themselves better. I believe that, with the joint efforts of both teachers and students, our school will become a more enjoyable place in the near future. I would appreciate it if you could take my suggestions into consideration. Yours faithfully, Li Hua
