（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
The 92-year-old, thin, calm and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o’clock, even though she is nearly blind, moved to a nursing home today.
Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the hall of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when I told her that her room was ready. As she walked slowly to the elevator, I provided a true description of her tiny room, including the old sheets(布帘) that had been hung on her window. “I love it,” she said with the happiness of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.
“Mrs. Jones, you haven’t seen the room…just wait.”
“That doesn’t matter,” she replied. “Happiness is something you decide ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn’t depend on how the furniture（家具） is arranged. It’s how I arranged my mind. I have already decided to love it. It’s a decision I make every morning when I wake up. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I’ll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I’ve stored away.” She went on to explain, “Old age is like a bank account. You take what you’ve put in. So, my advice to you would be to put in a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories. Thank you
for your part in filling my memory bank.” And with a smile, she said, “All my memories are happy
ones.”
Mrs. Jones was always happy in the nursing home and she died at the age of 108.
56. We can infer from the passage that the author________.
A. is one of Mrs. Jones’ children
B. is a relative of Mrs. Jones
C. works in the nursing home
D. is the owner of the nursing home
57. The room in which the old lady will live________.
A. is very comfortable
B. is fairly big
C. isn’t well equipped (装备)
D. is equipped with new furniture
58. Mrs. Jones was very happy when told about her room because she________.
A. couldn’t see what her room was like
B. thought the nursing home was her home
C. would have to live in the nursing home
D. had already made up her mind to be happy
59. Which of the following words can best describe Mrs. Jones?
A. Proud.
B. Cheerful.
C. Determined
D. Honest
B
Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who the true winners of a game were.
Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test---unless the person cheats again.
People lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and may be at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating, even when there seems to be a good reason for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before the day and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with you parents about how to balance swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions(解决办法) together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.
60. The author thinks that when kids cheat in class, ______.
A it is unfair to other people.
B it does harm to their health.
C teachers should punish them.
D teachers shouldn’t stop them at once.
61. Some students like cheating mainly because______.
A the material in the test is very difficult.
B they want to do better than the others.
C cheating can make hard things seem very easy.
D they have little time to study their lessons.
62. The fourth paragraph mainly tells us______.
A some kids can’t pass the test without cheating
B why kids cheat in the test.
C. cheating isn’t a good idea. D some kids don’t spend the time studying.
63. We can learn from the passage _______.
A cheaters are often thought highly of
B people show no respect for those who cheat.
C parents whose kids cheat are often in trouble.
D kids cheat in the test because of swim practice.
C
These are some signs that you can see on the roads of Great Britain.
Number one is a sign with the number thirty on it. When drivers see this sign they must not go at more than thirty miles an hour. We see this sign when we get to parts of the country where there are many houses and other buildings, for example, when we are getting near a town. Thirty miles an hour is the speed limit. Number two is a sign for the end of the speed limit. We are out of the town now and may go at more than thirty miles an hour. Number three is a sign that we are near a crossroads, that is, a place where two roads cross. We must drive carefully. Number four is a sign that there is a bend in the road. Again, we must drive slowly and carefully. Number five is a sign that there is a hill and Number six is a sign that the roads get narrow. Drivers must go slowly and carefully. Number seven has the word “school” on it. This is a sign that there is a school at the side of the street or road. Perhaps there are children going to school or leaving school. So drivers must look carefully and go slowly until they are past the school building. Number eight is a sign with the letter P on it. If the driver of a car wants to leave his car and go to the shops, he looks for this sign. Then he knows that he may leave his or her car there.
64. Who will most probably read the passage?
A. People who drive badly.
B. People who are learning to drive.
C. People who drive well.
D. People who drive carelessly.
65. When a driver sees the sign Number one, he must ____________.
A. always go at 30 miles an hour
B. go at more that 30 miles an hour
C. not go at more than 30 miles an hour
D. stop
66. A driver must drive carefully when he gets to ____________.
A. a bend
B. a crossroads
C. a narrow road
D. all of them
67. What does the “P” stand for on Number eight sign?

Many years ago, my dad was diagnosed (诊断) with a serious heart condition. He was unable to work a steady job. He would be fine for a while, but would then fall suddenly ill and have to be admitted to the hospital.
He wanted to do something to keep himself busy, so he decided to volunteer at the local children’s hospital. My dad loved kids. It was the perfect job for him. He ended up working with the seriously ill children. He would talk, play, and do arts with them.
One of his kids was a girl with a rare disease that paralyzed (瘫痪) her from the neck down. She couldn’t do anything, and she was very depressed. My dad decided to try to help her. He started
visiting her in her room, bringing paints, brushes and paper. He stood the paper up, put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint. He didn’t use his hands at all. All the while he would tell her,“See, you can do anything you set your mind to.”
At the end of the day, she began to paint using her mouth, and she and my dad became friends. Soon after, the little girl was sent home because the doctors felt there was nothing else they could do for her. My dad also left the children’s hospital for a little while because he became ill. Some time later after my dad had recovered and returned to work, in came the little girl who had been paralyzed, but
this time she was walking. She ran straight over to my dad and hugged him really tight. She gave him a picture she had done using her hands. At the bottom it read: “Thank you for helping me walk.”
My dad would cry every time he told us this story and so would we. He would say sometimes love is more powerful than doctors, and my dad --- who died just a few months after the little girl gave him the picture ---- loved every single child in that hospital.
68. The author’s father worked at the local hospital to ___________.
A. ease his heart condition
B. keep himself busy and happy
C. earn money to pay for treatment
D. realize his childhood dream
69. How did the author’s father help the paralyzed little girl?
A. He helped her practice walking.
B. He painted special pictures for her.
C. He showed her she could still do things.
D. He visited her and made a toy for her.
70 The article mainly conveys(传达) the message that ___________.
A. it’s better to give than to receive
B. volunteering is a worthwhile thing to do
C. love can sometimes bring great results
D. a sick person should not focus on his disease
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。

The winner’s guide to success
How do successful people think? What helps them to make success? To find out the answers, an American scholar recently visited some of the most successful people in America. 71 __.
Be responsible for yourself
Sometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead. 72 . You’re saying, “You have more control over my life than I do.”
Live life “on purpose”
Almost all successful people live life “on purpose”— they are doing what they believe they should and want to do. When you live your life on purpose, you’ll try your best to do your job or study as well as you can. You love what you do and you can find pleasure in what you do.
Write a plan
It is very difficult trying to get what you want without a good plan. 73 A good plan is like a map to you. Without this “map”, you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the “map” you’ll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time.
Be willing to pay the price
Nothing great is easy to get. So you must be ready to work hard — even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you won’t get anything valuable.
Never give up
74 When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of hope.
75
Once an American writer was writing a novel. He could not have a good ending for his book until one night when he had a very good idea. He was so excited that he made a phone call to one of his best friends. “I’ve got a perfect idea,” he said, “I’ll put it down later and show it to you.” But he never did, because he died that night. His book was left without a perfect ending. So remember, do what you can right away. Never delay at all.
A. It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away.
B. It seems to us that everyone knows this. But it is easier said than done.
C. Some people achieve success much later in life because they fail to realize earlier the importance of hard work.
D. In fact, when you say someone or something outside of yourself stopping you from making success, you’re giving away your own power.
E. Sometimes delay
F. Don’t delay
G. Here are some keys to success that they give.

第三节 书面表达（分）
One Possible Version
In my opinion, no lesson is more important than the one on personal safety. Life is fragile but can be strengthened when one is armed with enough knowledge on how to protect oneself from danger.
As middle school students, we should gain some knowledge about safety. Firstly, we should always obey our school rules. Do not run on the way to the dinning hall in order to protect us against injuries. Secondly, in order to avoid fire in our dormitory, we should not use any electric device without permission. Thirdly, we should not climb the fence of the school in case that we might hurt ourselves.
It is high time that we should be aware of the importance of self-protection. And only with a good sense of self-protection can we live a safe and happy life!
