Speaking in public is most people‘s least favorite thing. The reason is that we 35 all afraid of making fools of ourselves. The more 36 the speech is, the more frightened we become.

But stop biting your finger-nails. Public spe aking is easy. It‘s just plain talking, and you talk all the time. Although I‘m basically shy (honest!). I‘ve been 37 speeches and talking on radio and television for more than 30 years. And I can tell you that public speaking is not a ―38 ‖ lik e musical talent. Anybody who can talk can speak in 39 . Here are some of the lessons I have learned:

Y our audience is going to come away with one or two of your main ideas．One or two, not ten or twenty．If you can't 40 in a sentence or two what you intend to get across, then your speech is not focused well enough．And if you don't have a 41 idea of what you want to say, there's no way your audience will．No matter how long or 42 your speech is, you've got to get your ducks in a row—how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to 43 ．When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first．When you know where you're headed, you can 44 any route to get there．A strong close is critical; the 45 thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember．The standard length of a vaudeville(综艺节目) act is usually 12 minutes．If all those performers singing and dancing their hearts out couldn't go 46 longer without boring the audience, what makes you think you can?

35. A. have B. are C. know D. feel

36. A. important B. possible C. interesting D. dangerous

37. A. listening B. doing C. making D. writing

38. A. talk B. speech C. gift D. stress

39. A. class B. time C. English D. public

40. A. express B. explain C. warn D. draw

41. A. easy B. clear C. hard D. clever

42. A. short B. funny C. open D. good

43. A. close B. show C. cover D. form

44. A. go B. choose C. run D. jump

45. A. first B. second C. last D. bad

46. A. in B. away C. down D. on

How do you enjoy your weekends? The following reviews for films may help you. They are showing in our town cinema at the moment.

Happiness（2:00－4:00 pm, Saturday）

Happiness tells the story of two people（Lisa Turbot and Danny Roy）who work for different advertising companies. They talk on the phone all the time and don't like each other. But then they correspond by e-mail and fall in love. This movie will be very popular with teenagers and people who like romances. It also has beautiful music.

Paul's Heroes（9:00－11:00 am, Sunday）

This is a very funny war movie set in World War Two. Six soldiers（including Sammy Turblow）have to get to Italy to take secret messages to the American army there. During the movie, they dress up as women and fight with Italian workers. Y ou can guess the ending, but it's great fun getting there.

_____________（2:00－4:00 pm, Sunday）

This is a very good drama with Jack Ross, who plays a hard-working truck driver. His wife becomes ill and he has to find a doctor who can help her. In his travels he meets Dr. Lloyd（Phil Driver）who has found the cure for the illness, but Jack Ross has only twelve hours to get the medicine back to his wife on the other side of America. This is an excellent movie, which is very exciting.

D. Five.

It‘s easy to observe an athlete like Tiger Woods and feel like

he‘s from another planet. He has won 14 major tournament titles and

about $122 million in prize money and ads. The 33-year-old also has

a happy family. It seems that he is too perfect to one of us.

But Woods, who announced on March 25 that he plans to play in China in November, has more in common with you than you

might think.

Woods‘parents－particularly his father－set high expectations for him as a child. Before Earl Woods‘ death in 2006, he told Golf magazine: ―My purpose in raising Tiger was not to raise a golfer. I wanted to raise a good person.‖

By age two, Woods was already swinging a golf club. But once he entered school, Woods‘ father was careful to send the message that school work came first. Woods wasn‘t allowed to practice until his homework was done.

When Woods finally reached the professional tour, his father continued to expect great things of him. ―Tiger will do more than any other man in history to change the course of human. The world is just getting a taste of his power,‖ he said in 1996. Clearly, Earl Woods had great expectations of his son.

In this way, Tiger Woods is actually like a lot of us. Many of us feel a similar pressure to make our parents proud. When this happens, it‘s easy to let that pressure overwhelm（压倒）us.

In a perfect world, we would all grow up to be Tiger Woods-like successes in our own fields. But that isn‘t possible. There are many things that we can‘t control in this life, despite our best efforts.

There is, however, one thing that we can do: We can try to be a ―good person‖, as Earl Woods asked his son to do.

53. Which of the following is NOT true about Tiger Woods?

A.He got a lot of money for playing golf.

B.He did very well in golf as a child.

C.He comes from another planet.

D.He could play golf after he finished his homework.

54. It‘s ______ for us all to be successful like Tiger according to the writer‘s idea.

A. important

B. impossible

C. necessary

D. exciting

55. According to the passage, we can infer that ________.

A.Tiger has nothing in common with us.

B.Tiger has changed the course of human.

C.Tiger‘s mother didn‘t set high expectations for him.

D.Tiger‘s father plays an important role on his road to success.

D.

Are you aged between 14 and 19 years old? Do you care about your local environment? Would you like to help make the area you live in better, cleaner, safer and more friendly? If your answer is ―yes‖, then read on! Y ou may be surprised to hear that you can actually get money for improving your local community.

The ―Big Lottery‖ is giving money to groups of teenagers who want to become active citizens. We have ￡80,000 to give away. We‘re looking for young people to take part in

projects near to where they live. Here are a few easy things you could do to get started: Meeting the neighbors: Everybody needs good neighbors. Knock on people‘s doors and find out what they would like improving in your area. Set a date for a meeting and then make some plans together. If you don‘t want to go round to their houses, then you could always put a note through their doors.

Neighborhood watch: Neighborhood watch plans are very popular in the UK. If you go away on holiday and leave your house, it‘s very nice to know that a neighbor is keeping an eye on it. It‘s a good way to make the area you live in safer. Y ou could set one up easily and quickly.

Lending a hand: There are often elderly people living in the neighborhood who may not be able to do the things that you can. Offer to do their shopping once a week, look after their gardens for them or maybe walk their dogs!

No littering: Nobody likes picking up other people‘s rubbish, but a clean street can make all the difference. Take it in turns to go out once or twice a week and see what you can find. Y ou never know, one day you might find something valuable!

__________: Nearly two-thirds of your rubbish can be recycled. Some areas already provide places or people to recycle bottles, tins, plastic and paper. Find out if this is done in your neighborhood. If it‘s not, do something about it.

So, go on… Help make your neighborhood ―street ahead‖. Just tell us what kind of project you want to become involved in, then we‘ll send you more details. Take positive action and help make your neighborhood a better place to live in!

56. Who can take part in the projects that the ―Big Lottery‖ organizes?

A. Teenagers from 14 to 19.

B. All the people in the area.

C. Anyone who wants to.

D. all young people in the area.

57. What does lending a hand mean in Paragraph 5?

A. Shaking hands with old people.

B. Lending money to someone who needs.

C. Lending something to someone.

D. Helping people who need help.

58. What does the writer probably write in the blank in Paragraph 7?

A. No rubbish.

B. Recycling.

C. Picking up rubbish.

D. Help cleaning the streets.

59. Why does the ―Big Lottery‖ organize the projects?

A. To improve the environment of the community.

B. To help the old people in the community.

C. To make the neighborhood cleaner and safer.

D. To help young people care about the community.

One morning it was very sunny when I woke up. I looked at the alarm clock. It said 3:50! 60 ! What time was it? I climbed out of bed and went downstairs to the kitchen.

I rang my friend Tony on his mobile phone. ―61 !‖ I said.

八、阅读短文，根据其内容回答下面的问题。（共10分，每小题2分）

In 1999, a television company in Britain made a very popular programme called The 1900 House. They changed an ordinary house in a street in London so it was the same as a house from the year 1900. For example, it had no electricity, just gas for the lights and the kitchen. The toilet was outside in the garden, and all the furniture was from 1900 or before.

Then they found a family - the Bowlers – to live in the house for three months. Six people in the family lived in the house: Paul and Joyce Bowler, their daughters, Kathryn, Ruth and Hilary and their son, Joe. For three months, while they were living in the house, they had to wear V ictorian clothes and live like people at that time. For example, they had to wash their hair with egg and lemon, not shampoo. They had to wash their clothes by hand because they didn‘t have a washing machine, and they had to use the toilet outside in the garden. But the family didn‘t have to go shopping because the television company did all their shopping for them.

There were cameras inside the house to film the family‘s everyday life, and the Bowlers talked on television about their experiences. Here are some of the things that Hilary said later about her time in the house:

―Some things were difficult – we had to find things to do in the evenings because there was no television or computer, and we all had to work hard to clean the house and to

cook our food. My sister and I had to share a bedroom and a bed, too! It was fun – and we didn‘t have to go to school every day, which was nice. But I don‘t want to do it again. I think I‘d like to live in the future, not the past!‖

64. Was the house the Bowlers lived for three months in Paris?

65. How many people lived in the house?

66. Did the family cook their food in an microwave oven or with a gas stove?

67. Why were there cameras in the house?

68. What did Hilary mean by saying, ―I think I‘d like to live in the future, not the past!‖?

Mr Black worked in a factory in a big town. He liked fishing very much and was very good at it. When he was free, he went down to the small river behind the factory and tried to catch fish, but there were very few there because the water in the river was polluted. Then one summer he went to the seaside during the holidays and stayed at a small cheap hotel. ―I have never fished in the sea before.‖ He thought. ―It will be more interesting than fishing in our river.‖On the first day he caught a lot of fish and was happy. He gave them to the hotel. They cooked the fish and asked the guests to eat the fish. The guests enjoyed them very much. After that, he did this every day. But when he was leaving at the end of the week, he got his bill and it said: ―For oil to cook 70 pounds.‖

三、听独白，根据独白内容，记录关键信息。（共10分，每小题2分）

In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution. They join "Environment C lubs‖. In an environment club, people work to gether to make our environment clean.

Here are some things students often do.

Firstly, no-rubbish lunch. How much do you throw away after lunch? Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. Every week they will choose the classes that make the least rubbish and report them to the whole school!

Next, no-car day. On a no-car day, nobody comes to school in a car —not the students or not the teachers! Cars give pollution to our air, so remember; walk, jump, bike or run. Use your legs! It‘s lots of fun!

Finally, and the most important, turn off the water! Did you know that some toilets can waste twenty to forty liters of water an hour? In a year, that would fill a small river! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets.

We love our environment. Let‘s work together to make it clean.
