AI work in a nursing home and my job is to take care of the elderly．This 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 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 sad．Knowing that her daughter was coming 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 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 in．Then soon some of her friends came to the church and they rushed over to greet her and sit with her．The candlelight service was beautiful and Alice got a lot of love from her old and new friendsthere.The truth of the story is that I am the one who got the best gift: the smile on Alice‟s face. 21.The underlined word“dementia”in Paragraph 2 probably is_______A．a house B．a letter C．an illness D．a plan22. Where did Alice spend her Christmas Eve according to the story?A．In her old house B. In her old neighborhood church．C．In the nursing home． D. In the hospital．23. What was the best gift that the author got on Christmas Eve?A．The candlelight service．B．Praise from Alice‟s friends．C．Alice‟s happiness D．Thanks from Alice‟s daughter．24．What is the best title for this passage?A．A special candlelight Christmas Eve B．The dream of an old lonely ladyC．My special job D．The true loveBHundreds 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 seconds. 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 newspaper 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 at the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV.Seco ndly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don‟t 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, newspapers 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 their 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.25．According 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 place 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.26．The difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that _______.A. people can learn more about the same news story from a newspaperB. people 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 country27．To make a good newspaper story, how many factors does the passage talk about?A. Two.B. Three.C. Five.D. Six.28．According to the passage, 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 hasn‟t been caught.D. The bike in front of your house is lost.CTop Four Ways to Build a Wonderful Life1. Live Below 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 can‟t afford. It might feel great at the time but unwise spendin g hurts a lot later on. Enjoy life‟s simple pleasures and save as much as you can. Expensive things don‟t 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, you need to put it to work. Good investments can be the difference between retiring in your 40‟s or in your 60‟s. A post today at The Simple Dollar really got me thinking. According to Trent‟s estimates, if a person in their early 20‟s invests 20% of their income in an S&P index fund, the interest they earn will equal their current salary when they reach their early 40‟s. They could retire without a drop in income! Wise investing is the surest path to finan cial independence and it‟s something everyone can work on. It‟s definitely an area I‟ll be devoting more attention to in my personal life.3. Educate YourselfTo be happy, we need continuous growth. The best way to grow is life-long education. This doesn‟t 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 searching for fresh ideas and perspectives(看法). Education builds over time. It might feel like the bits of wisdom you acquire don‟t mean much, but over the years they add up to forma wiser, kinder, more interesting person.4. Develop Lasting Personal RelationshipsSuppose you had everything you wanted. 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. Don‟t forget about them. Taking the time to cultivate and enjoy personal relationships is essential to long-term happiness. Without the people you care about, you‟ll probably be miserable, no matter how successful you become.29．According to the passage, in order to achieve financial independence after retirement, we‟d better ________.A. get along well with our family and friendsB. bring ourselves leisure as well as enjoymentC. invest our money wisely when we are youngD. learn some new skills and try to find a new job30．From 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. take out a loan to promote technology31．The author of the passage may agree that the key to self-education is ________.A. gaining as many degrees as possibleB. being open to new ideas and viewsC. only focusing on very big eventsD. creating long-term happiness32．The above passage is written in order to ________.A. explain 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 difficult 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 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 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 abilities still further, ask yourself this question: in the following three areas—skills 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 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 normal 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 completely know yourself and your special qualities which make youdifferent 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‟ advice.34. You can do all the things to research for different kinds of work except for ______.A. going to the library and referring to booksB. asking your friends to give you some informationC. asking for the advice of your parents‟ friendsD. talking to a younger person who is at work for information35. If you are interested in banking, you should talk to a bank clerk of twenty-four instead of abank manager of sixty-four because_________.A. a young bank clerk will be able to describe a special day at workB. a young bank clerk is a full-time worker and can tell you about the interesting or boringthings at workC. 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。
