It began a year ago, around Christmas. Every time I drove down our street, I 31 an old man sitting in his front yard. He was usually smoking or drinking, and looking rather unhappy. One day, while I was driving past him with my 32 , I decided to wave at him with a lot of excitement. 33 , when he noticed me waving at him, he looked a bit shocked. Then, I saw his hand go up and he waved back.
“ 34 did you wave at him?” my daughter asked.
I told her it’s just an act of kindness that doesn’t 35 anything. It gives both him and me a feeling of joy. My daughter replied that she felt a bit uncomfortable to wave to a 36 , but next time she would try it as well.
We liked close to the old man, 37 we saw him rather often. Whenever we drove by, both of us would start waving at him and, pretty soon, the old man started 38 at everyone who passed by his house.
One time, my daughter’s friend came to visit and she told my daughter that she saw this strange old man near our home wave at her very 39 . She mentioned that she waved back, although she didn’t know 40 , and it felt really good.
As soon as my daughter heard this, she told her friend the 41 of how all the waving began. Her friend answered: “Tell your mom that’s really cool!”
Other friends gave similar 42 . This taught my daughter that an act of kindness can be natural and 43 , if you really want to do it. It showed us how giving happiness can do good to 44 the giver and the receiver.
Moved by the old man’s actions, we’re planning to give our waving neighbor a thank-you card to express our 45 for his exciting waves. We are really thankful for him sharing his simple joy with all who pass by his house.

阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A B C D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项

Once there was a man traveling in a faraway village. As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope(绳子) tied to their front leg. No chains(锁链), no cages(笼子). It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t try to get away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller, we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that time, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they still believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.”
How could it be? These animals could at any time break free from their ropes. But because they always stuck rig ht where they were, they believed they couldn’t.
Just like the elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something, just because we failed at it once before?

A. Because they think they cannot.
B. Because they are too old to do it.
C. Because they like their living places.

48. How did the man feel after he heard what the trainer said?
A. Happy

C. Angry
D. Nervous

Thomas Edison lit up the world with his invention of the electric light. Without him, the world might still be in the dark. However, the electric light was not his only invention. He also invented the motion picture camera and 1200 other things. About every two weeks he created something new.
Thomas Edison was born in 1847. He attended school for only three months. His mother taught him at home, but Thomas was mostly self-educated. He started experimenting at a young age. When he was 12 years old, he got his first job. He became a newsboy on a train. He did experiments on the train in his free time. Unluckily, his first work experience did not end well. They fired him when he accidentally set fire to the floor of the train. Then Edison worked for five years as a telegraph operator, but he continued to spend much of his time in experimenting his first patent(专利权) in 1868 for a vote recorder run by electricity.
Edison was totally deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other, but he thought of his deafness as a blessing(福分) in many ways. It kept conversations short, so that he could have more time for work. He always worked 16 out of every 24 hours. Sometimes his wife had to remind him to sleep and eat.
Edison died at the age of 84. He left a great many inventions that greatly improved the quality of life all over the world.
51. How often did Edison make a new invention?
A. About every fourteen days
B. About every seven days
C. About once a week
D. About twice a week
52. The underlined word “fired” in the passage means “__________”
A. Gave somebody a job
B. Set fire to somebody
C. Let somebody down
D. Made somebody leave his job
53. Edison considered his deafness as______.
A. something bad
B. a gift from god
C. a kind of ability
D. a chance
54. Which of the following sentence is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Edison had only 8 hours rest each day after his deafness.
B. Edison had his first job in 1859.
C. A Vote recorder was Edison’s only patent.

D. Edison and his experiments
C
Decisions, decisions! Our lives are full of them, from the small ones to the life-changing. The right to choose is central to everyone. Yet sometimes we make bad decisions that leave us unhappy or full of regret. Can science help?
Most of us know little about the mental processes（心理历程）that lie behind our decisions. Luckily, what psychologists are finding may help us all make better choices. Here are some of their amazing discoveries to help you make up your mind. Consider your emotions(情感). You might think that emotions are the enemy of decision-making, but in fact they are a part of it. Whenever you make up your mind, your brain’s emotional centre is active. University of Southern California scientist, Antonio Damasia, has studied people with damage（损伤） to only the emotional parts of their brains, and found that they were unable to make basic choices about what to wear or eat. Damasia thinks this may be because our brains store emotional memories of past choice, which we use to help the present decision-making.
However, making choices under the influence of an emotion can greatly affect the result. Take anger for example. A study by Nitika Garg of the University of Mississippi and other scientists found the angry shoppers were more likely to choose the first thing they were offered rather than considering other choices. It seems that anger can lead us to make quick decisions without much thinking.
All emotions affect our thinking and motivation（动机），so it may be best to avoid making important decisions under their influence. Yet strangely there is one emotion that seems to help us make good choices. The American researchers found that sad people took time to consider the various choices on offer, and ended up making the best choices. In fact many studies show that people who feel unhappy have the most reasonable view of the world.
56. What does the underlined word “central” mean?
A. in the middle
B. easy to reach
C. important
D. having power
57. Damasia’s study sugges ts that ________.
A. emotions are the enemy of decision-making.
B. our brain has nothing to do with decision-making.
C. people with physical damage find it hard to make up their minds.
D. our emotional mem ories of past choices can affect present decisions.
58. According to the text, what may help us make better decisions?
A. To think about happy times.
B. To make many decisions at a time.
C. To stop feeling regretful about the past.
D. To learn about the process of decision-making.
59. Why are angry shoppers more likely to choose the first thing they are offered?
A. They often forget their past choices.
B. They make decisions without much thinking.
C. They tend to save time when shopping.
D. They are too angry to bargain.
60. What do we learn from the text?
A. Emotions are a part of decision-making.
B. Sad people always make worse choices.
C. No emotion seems to help us make good choices.
D. Only sad feelings affect our thinking and motivation.

阅读下面的短文，根据要求完成文后各小题。

Being tired of my noisy life in the city, I wanted to breathe some fresh air and experience a new kind of life. So I joined the “Earth care Project”. When I set out, I took nothing with me but some bad emotion(情绪).However, when the trip was over, my backpack was full of things, including joy, sadness, beautiful views and some knowledge about life.
In this exchange project, I was glad that I could get along well with the strange participan ts(参加者) from other countries. We tried to take care of each other. The group leaders, Paul and Reg, were both nice. They were very knowledgeable about plants, animals and the environment. However, they were completely different from each other-----one was very quiet and the other was very outgoing. They were a really interesting pair.
The most successful thing about this trip was that we had panted 1103 plants during the last two weeks. That was really encouraging. I felt very happy that I had done something useful for the earth with my own hands.
On this trip, I learned to watch and think more about the world around me, rather than just caring about myself. We should be kind to life. We should not only treat human beings well, but also animals, plants and nature. After this trip, I feel that I have become more active and outgoing.
I won’t miss another trip like this in the future.

85.They work together to look after plants, animals and nature.
One possible version:
Are e-books better than traditional paper books? E-books are very popular these days, but many readers prefer paper books.
Some people think that e-books are great. They can store thousands of books on an e-reader. They don’t need to go to a bookshop because they can buy and receive books online immediately. On the other hand, paper books are still very popular. Some people prefer to hold a “real” book and like to touch paper pages although real paper books take up much space at home.
In short, I think that e-books are a really useful invention. Many people use them but they won’t replace paper books in the future.

Around the UK today, lots of students are studying the works of William Shakespeare. He is one of the most important writers in history.
Because Shakespeare wrote 400 years ago, his English is very difficult. English was very different then. Because it’s hard to read,students often joke about hating Shakespeare. In a comedy show, the main character goes back in time. He meets Shakespeare, and hits him in the face, saying “That’s for every student in England since you died!” This is just a joke, and people love Shakesp eare . England itself is often called “ the land of the powerful” today. Shakespeare is big part of what it means to be British.。
