AIt’s such a happy-looking library, painted yellow, decorated with palm-tree stickers and shelter ed from the Florida sun by its own roof. About the size of a microwave oven, it’s pedestrian-friendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach country Estates, along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.It’s a library built w ith love.A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That’s what we’re going to do for our spring break!”Son Austin, now a 10th-grader, didn’t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51-year-old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he’d built years earlier for daughter Abbie’s toy horses, and made a door of glass.After adding the library’s final touches (装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book,” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.They stocked it with 20 or so books they’d already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids’ favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again,” said Janey, a stay-at-home mom.Since then, the collection keeps replenishing (补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.The project’s best payoff, says Peter, are the thank-you notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”【文章大意】文章主要讲述了Janey Henriksen一家建立微型图书馆的故事。

A.A fellow speaker from California named Geri flew to Japan, in her favorite jeans and a casual jacket, to give her first speech. Fourteen hours later, four perfectly dressed Japanese gentlemen greeted her at Narita Airport. Smiling and bowing low, they handed her their business cards. With her bag in one hand, Geri took their cards with the other. She thanked them, glanced briefly at the cards, and put them into her jeans pocket quickly.When the five of them arrived at the hotel, they invited Geri to tea in the lobby (大厅). While sipping tea, the gentlemen presented her with a small gift which she eagerly opened. She was thrilled with the gift and shouted excitedly, “Oh, it’s beautiful!”At this point, the four Japanese gentlemen stood up and, bowing only very slightly, said “Sayonara” and left immediately. Poor Geri was left astonished. What did she do wrong?Everything! Her jeans were the first gaffe. Even if you’re coming off a bicycle in Japan, you do not meet clients (客人) casually dressed. The second mistake was Ger i’s handling of their business cards rudely. In Japan, the business card is one of the most important communicative tools. It is always presented and accepted respectfully with both hands. However, Geri put their cards away much too quickly. In Japan, people use business cards as a conversation starter. You chat about each other’s cards and work and do not put theirs away until they gently and respectfully place yours in safekeeping. Putting it carelessly into her jeans pocket was the ultimate disrespect.Then, the fourth horror of horrors was that Geri should not have opened the gift in front of her clients. In a land where saving face is critical, it would beembarrassing to discover the gift they gave was not as nice as the one they received. What is wors e, Geri hadn’t even given them a gift!【文章大意】本文叙述了来自加利福尼亚的Geri坐飞机来到了日本,由于不熟悉日本的礼仪,引起了日本人的误会。

it perfectly,his teachers say Samuel is unbelievable.They say his ability is very rare,but Samuel doesn't even realize that what he can do is special.Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents,but music teachers told him he should study music instead.Now,he studies law and music.Samuel can't understand why everyone is so surprised."I grew up with music.My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar.About two years ago,Isuddenly decided to start playing the piano,without being able to read music and without having any lessons.It comes easily to me﹣﹣﹣I hear the notes and can bear them in mind﹣﹣﹣each and every note,"says Samuel.Recently,Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college.The piece had more than a thousand notes.The audience was impressed by his amazing performance.He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can't play it.Samuel says confidently,"It's all about super memory﹣﹣﹣I guess I have that gift."However,Samuel's ability to remember things doesn't stop with music.His family says that even when he was a young boy,Samuel heard someone read a story,and then he could retell the story word for word.Samuel is still only a teenager.He doesn't know what he wants to do in the future.For now,he is just happy to play beautiful music and continue his studies.26.What is special

title of the passage?A.The Qualities of a MusicianB.The Story of a Musical TalentC.The Importance of Early EducationD.The Relationship between Memory and Music.31.(10分)It was a cold winter day.A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth (收费站)."I'm paying for myself,and for the six cars behind me,"she said with a smile,handing over seven tickets.One after another,the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed,"Some lady up ahead already paid your fare."It turned out that the woman,Natalie Smith,had read something on a friend's refrigerator:"Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty."The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down.Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home.When it stayed on her mind for days,she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down."I thought it was beautiful,"she said,explaining why she'd taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters,"like a message from above."Her husband,Frank,liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students,one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson,a local news reporter.Alice put it in the newspaper,admitting that though she liked it,she didn't know where it came from or what it really meant.Two days later,Alice got a call from Anne Herbert,a woman living in Marin.It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper,after turning it around in her mind for days."Here's the idea,"Anne says."Anything you think there should be more of,do it randomly."Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools,leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town,and giving money secretly to a proud old lady.Anne says,"Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can." The acts of random kindness spread.If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid,who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later.Like all great events,kindness begins slowly,with every single act.Let it be yours!31.Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her?A.She knew the car drivers well.B.She wanted to show kindness.C.She hoped to please others.D.She had seven tickets.32.Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she.A.thought it was beautifully writtenB.wanted to know what it really meantC.decided to write it on a warehouse wallD.wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom33.Who came up with the phrase according to the passage?A.Judy Foreman.B.Natalie Smith.C.Alice Johnson.D.Anne Herbert.34.Which of the following

reproduce themselves.D.Kindness and violence can shape one's character.35.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.People should practice random kindness to those in need.B.People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others.C.People should practice random kindness to strangers they meet.D.People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver.36.(10分)Like many new graduates,I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do.My degree,with honors,in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical.I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow,but I had no idea how to do that.That's when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers.I knew it would be a lot of hard work,and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time.In short,I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly.Neither did my family.Eventually,however,I won the support of my family,and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application.After countless interviews and presentations,I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone.Several months later,I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty.I would be going to a small village near Abuja,Nigeria.Where?What?Nigeria?I had no idea.But I was about to find out.After completing my training,I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation.Though the local villagers were poor,they offered their homes,hearts,and food as if I were their own family.I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse.For the next year or so,I taught in that same schoolhouse.But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.Sometime during that period,I realized that all those things that had seemed sostrange or unusual to me no longer did,though I did not get anywhere with the local language,and returned to the United States a different man.The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.36.What do we know about the author?A.His university education focused on the theoretical knowledge.B.His dream at university was to become a volunteer.C.He took pride in having contributed to the world.D.He felt honored to study English literature.37.According to the Project Lighthouse,it is likely that the author A.Discussed his decision

the volunteer job,the author.A.Participated in many discussionsB.Went through challenging survival testsC.Wrote quite a few paper on voluntary workD.Faced strong competition from other candidates39.On arrival at the village,the author was.A.Asked to lead a farming teamB.Sent to teach in schoolhouseC.Received warmly by local villagersD.Arranged to live in a separate house.40.What can we infer from the author's experiences in Nigeria?A.He found some difficulty adapting to the local cultureB.He had learned to communicate in the local language.C.He had overcome all his weakness before he left for home.D.He was chosen as the most respectable teacher by his students.41.(10分)Scientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents (洋流).Most do it using satellites and other high﹣tech equipment.However,ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way﹣﹣﹣by studying movements of random floating garbage.A scientist with many years'experience,he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States.There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear.Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes﹣about 60,000 in total﹣fell into the ocean in a shipping accident.He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back.As expected,the company told him that they didn't.Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a great experiment.If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed,he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents.The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing(海滩搜寻)because winds and currents join here,and as a result,there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area.Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed.In a year he collected reliable information on 1,600shoes.With this data,he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents,and publish the findings of their study.As the result of his work,Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean.He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts,with 500subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand.They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves.41.The underlined phrase swap meets in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to.A.fitting roomsB.trading fairsC.business talksD.group meetings42.Ebbesmeyer phoned the shoe company to find out.A.what caused the shipping accidentB.when and where the shoes went missingC.whether it was all right to use their shoesD.how much they lost in the shipping accident43.How did Ebbesmeyer prove his assumption?A.By collecting information from beachcombersB.By studying the shoes found by beachcomberC.By searching the web for ocean currents modelsD.By researching ocean currents data in the library44.Ebbesmeyer is most famous for.A.traveling widely the coastal cities of the worldB.making records for any lost objects on the seaC.running a global currents research associationD.phoning about any doubtful objects on the sea45.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?A.To call people's attention to ocean pollutionB.To warn people or snipping safety in the oceanC.To explain a unique way of studing ocean currentsD.To give tips on how to search for lost objects on the beach.第二节信息匹配(共1小题;每小题10分,满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息,请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑46.(10分)首先请阅读某大学提供给学生的项目信息:46.I grow up in a very big family.My parents

common (2)argument between parents and teenagers is that regarding untidiness and daily routine tasks.On the one hand,parents go mad over(3)messy rooms,clothes thrown on the floor and their children's

1. According to Jon Ronson, the writer of the book, psychopaths are very charming, smart, easily bored and cruel. In the book, Ronson takes readers into the fascinating world of psychopaths by speaking to the experts and having amusing conversations with the psychopaths themselves.2.This book is about a deeply funny story, as well as a deeply sad story—the great Nineties moment when a bunch of punk rock bands from Seattle accidentally blew up into the world's biggest noise. The author gives the unique chronicle (编年史) of how it all happened, and how it ended too soon. The book also makes readers appreciate how strange it was.3.This is just one of the terrifying everyday tales of the body trade documented. It started out extremely well, with some fascinating stories about the trade in human body parts. It covers many different aspects of the “red market”, ranging from skeletons to blood, and even the giant business of collecting and selling human hair.4.It's been reported that the author has often attracted as much attention as his cars. The book is partly a biography covering a very short portion of the author's own life—his second stint (任期) at General Motor(GM)—which recently ended afterabout a decade. However, it's more than a biography. It is also a view on what went wrong with the US car industry and US industry in general.5.This is a great book for anyone who has an interest in science, or wants to see advances in medicine at greater rates that we've seen them so far. If a reader has teenagers with interests in science, he should have them read this book. It will inspire them to broaden their horizons beyond the typical research lab.B阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

首先请阅读下面给予英语学习者的建议:English learning isn’t an easy thing, but most people can learn it well if they’re willing to put in the necessary time. Here are some practical suggest ions for learning English effectively, overcoming anxiety, and learning the grammar and skills necessary for success in English classes.A.Develop a good attitude.Have a clear personal reason for taking an English class. Set personal goals for what you want to learn. Leave perfectionism at the door;give yourself permission to make mistakes and learn from them.B.Divide your study time.Study a different task each time:vocabulary now, grammar next, etc. Get an overview during the first half hour:spend 10 minutes reviewing dialog,10 minutes learning new vocabulary,10 minutes learning new grammar...So you’ll at least have looked at it all. About 80% of your study time should be spent on recitation or practice.C.Make yourself comfortable.Get to know your clas smates, so you’ll feel you’re among friends. Visit your teacher during office hours. Explain your goals and fears about the course to your friends or your teacher.D.Attend and participate in every class—even if you aren’t well prepared.Class time is your best opportunity to practice. Learn the grammar and vocabulary outside of class in order to make full use of the class time. Spend a few minutes “warming up” before each class by speaking or reading English.E.Study every day.English learning is cumulative:you cannot put it off until tomorrow. Study one or two hours for every class hour if you want a good mark.F.Learn grammar well.Grammar is the skeleton and the basic structure of a language, so you must learn it.阅读以下各人学习英语的经历,然后匹配他们给予英语学习者的建议。

ASamuel Osmond is a 19-year-old law student from Cornwall, England. He never studied the piano. However, he can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them. He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts. Then he thinks about the notes in his head. Two years ago, he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata(奏鸣曲)by Beethoven. He surprised everyone around him.Amazed that he remembered this long and difficult piece of music and played it perfectly, his teachers say Samuel is unbelievable. They say his ability is very rare, but Samuel doesn’t even realize that what he can do is special. Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents, but music teachers told him he should study music instead. Now, he studies law and music.Samuel can’t understand why everyone is so surprised. “I grew up with music. My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar. About two years ago, I suddenly decided to start playing the piano, without being able to read music and without having any lessons. It comes easily to me ---I hear the notes and can bear them in mind---each and every note,” says Samuel.Recently, Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college. The piece had more than a thousand notes. The audience was impressed by his amazing performance. He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can’t play it. Samuel says confidently, “It’s all about super memory---I guess I have that gift.”However, Samuel’s ability to remember things doesn’t stop with music. His family says that even when he was a young boy, Samuel heard someone read a story, and then he could retell the story word for word.Samuel is still only a teenager. He doesn’t know what he wants to do in the future. For now, he is just happy to play beautiful music and continue his studies.26. What is special about Samuel Osmond?A.

Samuel thinks of himself as a man of great musical ability.D. Samuel studies law and music on the advice of his teachers.28. Everyone around Samuel was surprised because he_____ _.A. received a good early education in musicB. played the guitar and the piano perfectlyC. could play the piano without reading musicD. could play the guitar better than his father29. What can we infer about Samuel in Paragraph 4?A. He became famous during a special event at his college.B. He is proud of his ability to remember things accurately.C. He plays the piano better than many professional pianists.D. He impressed the audience by playing all the musical pieces.30. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A.
