第部分：阅读理解（共小题；每小题2分，满分分）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。

A
One fine afternoon I was walking along Fifth Avenue, when I remembered that it was necessary to buy a pair of socks. I turned into the first sock shop that caught my eye, and a boy clerk(职员) who could not have been more than 17 years old came forward. “What can I do for you, sir?” “I wish to buy a
pair of socks.” His eyes lit up. “Did you know that you had come into the best place in the world to buy socks?” I had not been aware of that. “Come with me,” said the boy happily. He began to haul(用力拖) down from the shelves box after box .
“Hold on, boy, I am going to buy only one pair!” “I know that,” said he, “but I want you to see how beautiful these are. Aren’t they wonderful?” There was on his face an expression of joy, as if he were showing to me the mysteries of his religion. “My friend,” said I, “if this is not merely the enthusiasm that comes from novelty（新鲜）, if you can keep up this zeal(热忱) day after day, in ten years you will own every sock in the United states.”
My amazement at his pride in salesmanship will be understood by all who read this article. In many shops the customer has to wait for someone to serve him. And when finally some clerk does deign(屈尊) to notice you, you are made to feel as if you were interrupting him. He shows no interest either in you or in the goods he is paid to sell. Yet possibly that very clerk who is now so apathetic(冷漠的) began his career with enthusiasm. The novelty disappeared; his only pleasures were found outside of working hours. He became a mechanical(机械般的), not inspired, salesman.
I have observed such change in the lives of so many men in so many occupations that I have come to the conclusion that the fastest road to failure is to do things mechanically.
56. The boy clerk seemed to be ______ his job.
A. proud of
B. disappointed with
C. experienced in
D. tired of
57. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 suggest?
A. Too great an enthusiasm for one’ job will kill a career.
B. It’s difficult to stay enthusiastic about something for long.
C. Staying enthusiastic about a job will lead to success.
D. A person needs to look for the novelty in a job.
58. According to the author, many shop clerks _____.
A. frequently try to inspire themselves to be creative
B. show no or little pleasure in serving their customers
C. do not think they need to present the goods they sell in an attractive way
D. become mechanical in their work because they don’t see a way to improve
59. What was the author’s aim in writing this article?
A. To share an interesting shopping experience.
B. To tell the story of a successful young salesperson.
C. To inspire people to go about their work with zeal.
D. To call upon sales people to become more creative in their work.
B
Some places in the world have strange laws. It’s important for you to know about them before going there.
Whoever likes to chew gum(口香糖) may have to leave Singapore. The government really wants to keep the city clean and will fine you for chewing gum.
Before you leave for the United Arab Emirates you’d better make sure you aren’t visiting during Ramadan(斋月). During that time you aren’t allowed to eat or drink in public. Tourists have been fined up to $275 for drinking in public.
Lovers spend so much time kissing each other goodbye at train stations that trains often start late. This law — no kissing your lover goodbye at train stations is rather old, and isn’t in use today in France.
In Thailand it’s against the law to drive a car or motorcycle without a shirt on, no matter how hot it is. Punishments are different in different areas and can include warnings and tickets costing about $10. No joke -- the local police will stop you.
Studies in Denmark have shown that cars with their headlights on are more noticeable by other
drivers than those with their headlights off. Drivers there are required to leave their headlights on even during the day, or they may face a fine up to $100.
Do you often buy things using coins? Don’t do it in Canada. The Currency Law of 1985 doesn’t allow using only coins to buy things. Even the use of the dollar-coin is limited (受限制的). The shop owner has the right to choose whether to take your coins or not.
Make sure you know about these laws before your next trip. Better safe than sorry.
60. What is mainly talked about in the text?
A. How to make your trip around the world safe.
B. Why there are strange laws in the world.
C. Interesting places you can go to around the world.
D. Some strange laws you should know about for your trip.
61. If you are driving a car in Thailand, _____.
A. the police will play a joke on you
B. you should wear your shirt even though it’s hot
C. the police will give you tickets costing about $10
D. you should always keep your headlights on
62. What can we learn from the text?
A. Kissing goodbye at train stations isn’t allowed in France today.
B. The Singaporean government cares a lot about its environment.
C. Tourists in the United Arab Emirates shouldn’t eat in public.
D. You can turn your headlights off in daytime in Denmark.
C
Visitors worry that London is an expensive city but there really are so many things to do for free
in London from museums and galleries to free music and walking tours.
Art Galleries
Tate Modern and Tate Britain are exceptional national art galleries housing some of the finest artworks in the world. Tate Modern focuses on contemporary art while Tate Britain displays British Art from the sixteenth century to the present day.
Museums
All of London's major museums are free, but most offer some special exhibitions for a fee. My favorite is the Museum of London where you can learn the history of London from Roman times to today.
Other great major museums are the British Museum, the V&A, the Science Museum, and the Natural History Museum. Oh, and I love the Geffrye Museum. And the Horniman Museum. Now I can't decide which is the
best!
Many of London's major art galleries and museums are open in the evening and often have special evening events. This can be a great way to relax at the end of a busy day seeing the sights. The main London galleries and museums are air-conditioned so it can be wonderful way to cool down in the height of summer in the city. Galleries and museums are not open late every night so here is a handy list to help you plan your days and evenings.
Royal Parks
Many people say the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite spot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park as it offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park is enormous and includes the ever popular Diana Memorial Fountain and the Peter Pan Statue.
There are often free talks and guided walks in the royal parks so do check the What's On section of the Royal Parks website.
Changing of the Guard
No visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11:30 a.m every day in the summer and every other day in the winter. Get there early and view the spectacle from outside the front gates.
63. The passage is intended to _________.
A. introduce some free scenic spots to tourists
B. help visitors save money while visiting Ireland
C. advise travelers how to choose art articles
D. tell readers London’s wonderful history
64. If you visit some museums in London in late evenings, you ________.
A. can see all the artworks free of charge
B. have to put up with the heat of the summer
C. need to pay admission for general exhibition
D. may have a chance to enjoy some special events
65. Diana Memorial Fountain can be found in ________.
A. Buckingham Palace
B. Regent's Park
C. Hyde Park
D. Queen Mary's Rose Gardens
66. In order to watch Changing of the Guard in summer, visitors have to _________.
A. gain access to the front gates after 11:30 a.m.
B. pay a sum of money to enter the Royal Parks
C. arrive at Buckingham Palace before 11:30 a.m.
D. come through the gates of Buckingham Palace
D
Many people turn to doctors or self-help books, but they ignore (忽视) a powerful thing that could help them fight illness: their friends.
Researchers are only now starting to pay attention to the importance of friendship in health. A 10-year Australian study found that old people with a large circle of friends were 22 percent less likely to die during the study period than those with fewer friends. A large 2007 study showed an increase of nearly 60 percent in the risk for obesity (肥胖) among people whose friends gained weight. And last year, Harvard researchers reported that strong social ties could improve brain health as we age.
“In general, the role of friendship in our lives isn’t well realized,” said Rebecca, a professor at the University of North Carolina. “Friendship has a bigger effect on our psychological (心理的) health than family relationships.”
While many friendship studies are about the close relationships of women, some research shows that men can benefit, too. In a six-year study of 736 middle-aged men, having friendships reduces the risk of
heart attack. Only smoking was as important a risk factor (因素) as having little social support.
Exactly why friendship has such a big effect isn’t entirely clear. While friends can send a sick person to the hospital or pick up medicine, the benefits go well beyond physical assistance. Friendship clearly has a big psychological effect. “People with stronger friendships feel like there is someone they can turn to,” said Karen, a doctor. “The message of these studies is that friends make your life better.”
67. The three studies in the second paragraph show that ______.
A. old people need friends the most
B. friends can help us lose weight
C. social ties(关系) are connected to health
D. more friends make us healthier
68. What do Rebecca’s words mean?
A. Friendship is more important to women than to men.
B. What people need most is a friend’s care.
C. Friendship is more important than family relationship.
D. The value of friendship hasn’t been fully understood.
69. The author mentioned smoking in the text to discuss ______.
A. the cause of heart attack
B. the risk of having no friends
C. smoking is bad for men
D. friends’ influence on habits
70. What would be the best title of the text?
A. Friends are the best medicine
B. Friends are as important as a family
C. Having good friends leads to a longer life
D. Friendship makes people happy

We saw some rubbish or dead fish floating on the water so well. That afternoon, my father and I caught only a smaller fish. Why did fish in the river die?

One possible version:
Last weekend, I helped my grandparents their trip to Beidaihe. On Saturday morning, together with my grandparents, I searched the Internet for the train schedule, the weather in Beidaihe, and some hotel information. In the afternoon, I went to the train station and managed to buy two tickets for my grandparents although there was a long queue. After dinner, I packed into the suitcase the things my grandparents need, such as clothes, glasses, an umbrella, and a map. The next morning, I went to the station to see them off. Waving goodbye to them on the platform, I felt happy for them and wished them a safe journey.。
