Their living conditions were not satisfactory while the old man had a lot of savings. She was expected to comfort him and keep up his spirits.Every Saturday the girl came on time to keep him company, telling him stories. When he was having an intravenous drip(静脉滴注), she would help massage his arms. The doctor found the patient much improved mentally. The old man began to involve himself actively in the medical treatment and he seldom shouted at others.But something that happened made the doctor uneasy and puzzled. Each time the girl left, the old man would give her some money. The doctor did nothing to interfere(干涉), unwilling to offend the old man. A month later the old man showed evident signs of decline after suffering coma(昏迷) a few times.When rescued from the latest coma, the old man told the doctor his last wish, “I have deep sympathy for the girl. Will you be kind enough to help her finish her studies?”But the doctor knew that her family was well-off and she had no difficulty pursuing her studies. Sometimes she even came to the hospital in her father's car.When the girl came at the weekend after the death of the old man, the doctor told her the bad news. She was very sad and burst into tears. Then she handed $500 to the doctor, saying,“The old man had all along thought I came to do the job because of poverty.

In the study, 63 University of Kansas researchers looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. Volunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire.Some of the results were expected: People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes, and flashier shoes were typically worn by outgoing people. However, some of the more specific results are strange enough. For example, “practical and functional”shoes were generally worn by more“pleasant”people, while ankle boots were more linked with“aggressive”personalities. The strangest of all may be that those who wore” uncomfortable looking” shoes tend to have “calm” personalities. And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take extreme care of them, you may suffer from“attachment anxiety”, spending lots of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance. There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal(主张变革的) types wearing“shabbier and less expensive” shoes.The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personalities, but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were showing the deep side of their personalities.28.What does this text mainly tell us? _____A.Shoes can hide people's real personalities.B.Shoes convey false information about the wearer.C.People's personalities can be judged by their shoes.D.People know little about their personalities.29.The participants were asked to _____A.provide pictures of their shoesB.look at pictures of different shoesC.design a personality questionnaireD.hand in their commonly worn shoes30.Which of the results is beyond people's expectation? _____A.Wealthy people often wear expensive shoes.B.Pleasant people like wearing uncomfortable shoes.C.Aggressive people are likely to wear ankle boots.D.Flashier shoes are typically worn by outgoing people.31.People suffering from“attachment anxiety”tend to _____A.wear strange shoes B.worry about their appearanceC.have a calm character D.become a political leaderDAn 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son.Suddenly a crow(乌鸦) perched on the tree near their window.The father asked his son,“What is this?”The son replied,“It is a crow.”After a few minutes, the father asked his son the 2nd time,“What is this?”The son said,“Father, I have just now told you. It's a crow’.”After a little while, the old father again asked his son the 3rd time,“What is this?”“It's a crow, a crow, a crow.”said the son loudly.A little after, the father again asked his son the 4th time,“What is this?”This time the son shouted at his father,“Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again?’ IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?”A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary:“Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. Myson asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question again and again for 23 times. I did not at all feel annoyed; I rather felt affection for my innocent child.”32.What does the underlined word“perched” mean in the passage? _____A.knocked B.landed C.hit D.flew33.Why did the Father ask the same question again and again? _____A.Because he couldn't understand what his son said.B.Because he was too old to remember anything.C.Because he wanted to make his son angry.D.Because he wanted to see how patient his son would be.34.How old was the old man when his son asked him 23 times“What is this”? _____A.80 years old.B.45 years old.C.38 years old.D.35 years old.35.What is the most suitable title for the passage? _____A.A crow.B.An old man.C.An old dairy.D.Father's love.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.It is necessary to be reasonable and flexible enough to avoid conflicts as much as possible and live in peace with others. 36 If you have done all your best to avoid conflicts and you are still arguing, then read these effective tips on how to avoid conflicts.· Don’t get in the center of the conflict.Sometimes people can get in the center of conflicts due to their enthusiasm for offering help. Frankly speaking, it is very unwise, because it can make you the main figure of the conflict. 37 You should focus on your own life issues.· Be kind.38 Life is full of conflicts and disagreements, that’s why you should find more conservative ways of dealing with them.

In the study, 63 University of Kansas researchers looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. V olunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire.Some of the results were expected: People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes, and flashier shoes were typically worn by outgoing people. However, some of the more specific results are strange enough. For example, “practical and functional”shoes were generally worn by more“pleasant”people, while ankle boots were more linked with“aggressive”personalities. The strangest of all may be that those who wore” uncomfortable looking” shoes tend to have “calm” personalities. And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take extreme care of them, you may suffer from“attachment anxiety”, spending lots of time worrying about what other people think of your appearance. There was even a political calculation in the mix with more liberal(主张变革的) types wearing“shabbier and less expensive” shoes.The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personalities, but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were showing the deep side of their personalities.28.What does this text mainly tell us? _____A.Shoes can hide people's real personalities.B.Shoes convey false information about the wearer.C.People's personalities can be judged by their shoes.D.People know little about their personalities.29.The participants were asked to _____A.provide pictures of their shoesB.look at pictures of different shoesC.design a personality questionnaireD.hand in their commonly worn shoes30.Which of the results is beyond people's expectation? _____A.Wealthy people often wear expensive shoes.B.Pleasant people like wearing uncomfortable shoes.C.Aggressive people are likely to wear ankle boots.D.Flashier shoes are typically worn by outgoing people.31.People suffering from“attachment anxiety”tend to _____A.wear strange shoes B.worry about their appearanceC.have a calm character D.become a political leaderDAn 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son.Suddenly a crow(乌鸦) perched on the tree near their window.The father asked his son,“What is this?”The son replied,“It is a crow.”After a few minutes, the father asked his son the 2nd time,“What is this?”The son said,“Father, I have just now told you. It's a crow’.”After a little while, the old father again asked his son the 3rd time,“What is this?”“It's a crow, a crow, a crow.”said the son loudly.A little after, the father again asked his son the 4th time,“What is this?”This time the son shouted at his father,“Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again?’ IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?”A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary:“Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question again and again for 23 times. I did not at all feel annoyed; I rather felt affection for my innocent child.”32.What does the underlined word“perched”mean in the passage? _____A.knocked B.landed C.hit D.flew33.Why did the Father ask the same question again and again? _____A.Because he couldn't understand what his son said.B.Because he was too old to remember anything.C.Because he wanted to make his son angry.D.Because he wanted to see how patient his son would be.34.How old was the old man when his son asked him 23 times“What is this”? _____A.80 years old. B.45 years old. C.38 years old. D.35 years old.35.What is the most suitable title for the passage? _____A.A crow. B.An old man. C.An old dairy. D.Father's love.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.It is necessary to be reasonable and flexible enough to avoid conflicts as much as possible and live in peace with others. 36 If you have done all your best to avoid conflicts and you are still arguing, then read these effective tips on how to avoid conflicts.·Don’t get in the center of the conflict.Sometimes people can get in the center of conflicts due to their enthusiasm for offering help.

Peng Liyuan, wife of President Xi Jinping, has drawn extensive attention from people both at home and abroad for her charisma and grace. Accompanying her husband on his first overseas trip after becoming president, Peng Liyuan exhibited graceful demeanor, a pleasant personality and well﹣chosen dress, prompting people to coin the term "Liyuanstyle".Peng Liyuan, as one of China's best﹣known singers, was popular among Chinese people long before her husband became the president. Loved by her fans, she has been in touch with the people for years."Liyuan style" is not only representative of a fashion idol, but also overpass cultural and diplomatic barriers. The beautiful handbags Peng has carried, and the plain but elegantand delicate dresses she has worn have become popular. Her choice of clothing, made﹣in﹣China instead of luxurious foreign brands, shows her belief in domestic dress designs.But "Liyuan style" is not only about clothing and a woman's ________. It is also about diplomacy and promoting China's soft power. In Moscow, Peng visited a boarding schoolfor orphans and children estranged (疏远) from their parents, encouraging them to strive for a better life, which brought out the maternal side of her character. In Tanzania, she donated sewing machines and school bags to women and children. And as a World Health Organization ambassador in the fight against AIDS, Peng is devoted to many public causes, including those relating to charity and healthcare.Some observers have already started saying that Peng*s activities have become part of public diplomacy in China.Also, "Liyuan style" has boosted the confidence of the Chinese people. Modem but not flashy, elegant but not arrogant, Peng has all the virtues of a Chinese woman and carries them to the international stage.Since the 18th Party Congress and the annual sessions of the NPC and CPPCC, thecountry's new leadership has vowed to adopt a down﹣to﹣earth work style to connect with the people. Peng's plain but elegant style shows that thriftiness and an earthy style neednot be drab and boring.So it can be said that Peng's first appearance on the international stage has kicked off well.(1)What s the meaning of the underlined word "paraphernalia"?________A Her attitudes towards life.B Things she carried with.C Her diplomatic measures.D Her support to her husband.(2)This passage is mainly about________.A President Xi's wife and his family.B Peng Liyuan's charming character.C the achievements of Peng on charity and healthcare.D a cultural phenomenon named as "Liyuan style".(3)Which of the following statements is TRUR?________A "Liyuan style" is only a fashion idol.B Peng Liyuan, as the wife of President Xi,admires lots of luxurious brands.C Peng Liyuan is willing to fight against AIDS and become an an ambassador of WHO.D Peng firstly appears in the public as the "First Lady" in Moscow.3.If Confucius(孔子)were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It's nothing personal. Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantages of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers. So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is.(1)The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ______.A provide some key facts about ConfuciusB attract the readers'interest in the subjectC show great respect for the ancient thinkerD prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations(2)We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students ______.A have a great interest in studying ChineseB take an active part in Chinese competitionsC try to get high scores in Chinese examsD fight for a chance to learn Chinese(3)What is the best title for the passge?A Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB Huge Fans of the Chinese LanguageC Chinese Cul ture for WesternersD Old Thinker with a Big Future(4)The passage is likely to appear in ______.A a biographyB a history paperC a newspaperD a philosophy textbook4. My mom only had one eye.I hated her…she was such an embarrassment. My mom ran a small shop at a flea market.She collected little weeds and such to sell…anything for the money we needed she was such an embarrassment. There was this one day during elementary school.I remember that it was field day, and my mom came. I was so embarrassed. How could she do this to me? I threw her a hateful look and ran out.The next day at school…"Your mom only has one eye? !" and they taunted me.I wished that my mom would just disappear from this world so I said to my mom. "Whydon't you just die? " My mom did not respond. I guess I felt a little bad, but at the same time, it felt good to think that I had said what I'd wanted to say all this time. Maybe it was because my mom hadn't punished me, but I didn't think that I had hurt her feelings very badly.That night…I woke up, and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. My mom was crying there, so quietly, as if she was afraid that she might wake me. I hated my mother who was crying out of her one eye. So I told myself that I would grow up and become successful, because I hated my one﹣eyed mom and our desperate poverty.Then I studied really hard. I left my mother and came to Seoul and studied, and got accepted in the Seoul University with all the confidence I had. Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. Then I had kids, too. Now I'm living happily as a successful man. I like it here because it's a place that doesn't remind me of my mom.This happiness was getting bigger and bigger, when someone unexpected came to see me "What? ! Who's this? !" It was my mother…Still wither one eye. It felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me. My little girl ran away, scared of my mom's eye.And I asked her, "Who are you? I don't know you!!" as if I tried to make that real. I screamed at her "How dare you come to my house and scare my daughter! Get out of here now!!" And to this, my mother quietly answered, "oh, I'm so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address, " and she disappeared.Thank goodness…she doesn't recognize me. I was quite relieved. I told myself that I wasn't going to care, or think about this for the rest of my life.Then a wave of relief came upon me…one day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house. I lied to my wife saying that I was going on a business trip. After the reunion, I went down to the old shack, that I used to call a house, just out of curiosity there, I found my mother fallen on the cold ground. She had a piece of paper in her hand. It was a letter to me.She wrote:My son, I think my life has been long enough now.For you…I'm sorry that I only have one eye, and I was an embarrassment for you. You see, when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye…so I gave you mine…I was so proud of my son that was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye. I was never upset at you for anything you did. The couple times that you were angry with me I thought to myself, ‘it's because he loves me.' I miss you so much. I love you. You mean the world to me. So I gave you mine. With all my love to you! Your mom.My World Shattered. I hated the person who only lived for me. I cried for My Mother, I didn't know of any way that will make up for my worst deeds…(1)What did the writer's mother do when he was young?________A A cook.B A worker.C A businesswoman.D A cleaner.(2)The writer wished his mom to die, which made his mom________.A sad.B happy.C calm.D quiet.(3)The writer studied very hard in order to________.A go to a famous university.B become a successful man.C live far away from his mother.D make his mother live happily.(4)Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?________A The writer's mother gave him one of her eyes.B The writer got married after he had finished school in another city.C The writer's classmate laughed at him because of his mother.D The writer's mother got a wrong address, and couldn't find her son.(5)The writer lived in Seoul happily because________.A he got a good job here.B he had a good wife.C the place wasbeautiful.

AMy wife, daughter, and I moved into our home nine years ago and we spent a lot of time and energy in the yard to get it looking like the way it does today. We live on a corner, higher than street level, and the entire side of the yard is surrounded by a professionally built rock wall. The front of the house though is another story because instead of a wall along the sidewalk, the rocks appear to be just thrown up onto the dirt as if someone were in a hurry to finish.We did the best we could with what we had to work with and called this area our “rock garden”. Whenever we had leftover flowers or plants, Denise or I would stick them out front, just to bring some color to the area. We would do all of the yard work on our own, even the tiring weed-pulling.Last summer I had reached the end of the rock garden and found a tiny little plant that I could not immediately identify, I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise claimed that she didn’t either. We decided to let it continue growing until we could figure out what it was.Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the mystery plant, it appeared to be a Sunflower with a tall skinny stalk(茎,杆) and only one head on it. I decided to baby it along and weed around it. As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something unusual. The Sunflower had not started where I saw the stalk begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the sun.That’s when I realized that if a tiny little Sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we too have the ability of doing the same thing. Once our environment begins to see that we believe in ourselves like that little Sunflower, we can attain the same nourishment(营养) and growth as well.Stand tall like the Sunflower and be proud of who and what you are and the environment will begin to support you. You will find a way to go under or around your big obstacle in order to reach your desires.21. We can know from the first paragraph that _______.A. the author finished building his home hurriedlyB. the author’s family have lived in this home for nine yearsC. the author’s home is made of rock wallsD. there is a wall along the sidewalk22. The author found it unusual that_______.A. the mystery plant turned out to be a SunflowerB. the Sunflower had a tall stalk and only one headC. the Sunflower grew under and around a big rockD. the Sunflower had started where the stalk was seen23. Which of the following best describes the Sunflower?A. Brave and stubborn.B. Confident and persistent.C. Optimistic and modest.D. Mysterious and devoted.24.What can be inferred from this passage?A. Human beings are able to remove obstacles.B. The universal truth made the sunflower survive.C. A big rock blocked out the sunlight of the sunflower.D. We can achieve success as long as we are self-confident.BIt is not only praise or punishment that determines a child’s level of confidence. There are some other important ways we shape our kids—particularly by giving instructions and commands in a negative or positive choice of words. For exam ple, we can say to a child “Don’t run into traffic!” or “Stay on the footpath close to me.” In using the latter, you will be helping your kids to think and act positively, and to feel competent in a wide range of situations, because they know what to do, a nd aren’t scaring themselves about what not to do.Actually, it is all in the way the human mind works. What we think, we automatically rehearse. For example, if someone offered you a million dollars not to think of a blue monkey for two minutes, you wo uldn’t be able to do it. When a child is told “Don’t fall off the tree,” he will think of two things: “don’t” and “fall off the tree”. That is, he will automatically create the picture of falling off the tree in his mind. A child who is vividly imagining falling off the tree is much more likely to fall off. So it is far better to use “Hold on to the tree carefully.”Clear, positive instructions help kids to understand the right way to do things. Kids do not always know how to be safe, or how to react to the warning of the danger in negative words. So parents should make their commands positive. “Sam, hold on firm to the side of the boat” is much more useful than “Don’t you dare to fall out of the boat?” or worse still “How do you think I’ll feel if you drown?” The changes are small but difference is obvious.Children learn how to guide and organize themselves from the way we guide them with our words, so it pays to be positive.25.Positive choice of words helps kids to _________.A. do things carefullyB. learn in different situationsC. improve their imaginationD. build up their confidence26.What can we infer from Paragraph 2 ?A.

Don’t you dare to walk through the red light?28.The main idea of the passage is that _________.A. praise makes kids confidentB. right instructions keep kids safeC. positive instructions guide kidsD. clear commands make kids differentCCrossing your legs is an extremely common habit; most people don't even notice that they're doing it when they sit down. While you may find it comfortable to sit with one knee crossed over the other, it might be causing health problems that you are not aware of.A study published in Blood Pressure Monitoring stated that sitting with your legs crossed can increase your blood pressure. The reason for this is that the blood in your legs has to work against gravity to be pumped back to your heart and that crossing one leg over the other increases resistance, making it even harder for the blood to circulate. This causes your body to increase your blood pressure to push the blood back to the heart. You won't feel any immediate effects, but repeated, drawn-out increases in blood pressure can cause long-term health issues. So, planning to sit for a long period of time? Don't keep your legs crossed.Crossing your legs at the knee can also cause pressure on the major nerve in your leg that passes just below your knee and along the outside of your leg, explains Richard Graves, a medical expert. This pressure can cause numbness and temporary paralysis (麻痹) of some of the muscles in your foot and leg, preventing you from being able to raise your ankle—what we know as that “pins and needles” sensation. While the feeling of discomfort may only last a minute or two, repeatedly crossing your legs until they feel numb can cause permanent nerve damage.So next time you sit down, try to get yourself in the habit of sitting with both of your feet on the floor.Not only will it help your posture and stability, but it will also save your health in the long run.29.
