Each day, regardless of my poor skill of cooking, I would do something in a new way: changing the dishes’ color, the meat’s or the soup’s style.Thus, my American friends could discover the 38 of eating Chinese food. Because of my “39 ” job, I was often rewarded by their 40 of thanks such as “very delicious”, “excellent”, etc.But something funny happened yesterday when I cooked Sichuan style fish for dinner. I was quite 41 with my work, for it was inviting indeed.When the whole family sat round the table, they first looked 42 at the fish, then looked at me. “Why do all the fish have their heads?” they asked, “It’s terrible!”Beautiful or terrible? I can’t understand. But I do know that fish heads are delicio us. The head is the best part of a fish; in China only the important guest can have the 43of enjoying it.Another 44 thing is: the American friends often said to me “45 ” when they 46 fruits or other things home. According to Chinese tradition I would simply smile in answer to their kindness without actually helping myself to any of the food. In return, I said “Help yourself” to them whenever I brought home fruits. Dear me! No matter how much or how often I brought food home, as long as it was nice to their taste, they never47 to use their hands to “help themselves” until all was finished. (304 words)36.

A third advantage 50 being self-employed is 51 a person can freely control working hours.As with most things in life, being self-employed is 52 without problems.

Anderson found the Toyota Camry (丰田凯美瑞) and used her daughter’s car key to unlock the car, start the engine and drove it home—without realizing that the car didn’t belong to her daughter.When Charlie Vansant left class a short time later, he found only an empty parking spot. He first assumed the car had been towed (拖走), but when the police couldn’t find a record of it, then they took a theft report.That morning, after Anderson drove the car home, her daughter discovered the Camry in the driveway (私人车道) wasn’t hers. Anderson said she was able to find Vansant’s name on the paperwork in the glove compartment and look up his phone number on the website for the university.When Anderson told Charlie the car was in her driveway, “It sounded really suspicious (怀疑的) at first, as if she wanted to hold the thing for ransom (赎金),” said Vansant. He eventually went to the house with a police officer, where he was reunited with his car. According to the police report, the case was closed “because of mistaken car identity”, and Anderson wasn’t charged.Vansant blamed the car company more than the “thief”. “Her key fit not only my lock, but my ignition (点火装置) as well--so high-five for Toyota, I guess,” he said.

When you are waiting for dinner, you play with it.C igarette? No, it’s another most addictive (使成瘾的) thing in the beginning of the 21st century, the cell phone (i.e. the mobile phone). Experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to curb their wishing to hug it more tightly than most of their personal relationships.With its charming surface and its satisfying touch, the cell phone connects us even if we are only three feet away. In just the past few years, the cell phone has challenged individuals, employers, phone makers and counselors (顾问) in ways that its inventors in the late 1940s never imagined.The costs are becoming even more evident, and I don’t mean just the monthly bill. Dr. Chris Knippers, a counselor at the Betty Ford Center in Southern California, reports that the overuse of cell phones has caused a social problem: a barrier(障碍) to one-on-one (一对一的) personal contact.This may sound extreme. But we’ve all witnessed the evidence: the person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal, ignoring his kids around the table; the woman who talks on the phone all the way, ignoring her husband; the teenager who texts messages all the way home from school, avoiding contact with other kids all around him.How is this improving the quality of our life? Jim Williams, an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts, notes that cell-phone addiction is a symptom (症状) in a widening gulf of personal separation. The study conducted in 2014 notes that one-quarter of Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business with. Despite the growing use of phones, e-mail and instant messaging, we young people don’t have as many friends as our parents. “Just as more information has led to less wisdom, more acquaintances (熟人) via the Internet and cell phones have produced fewer friends,” he says. (366 words)66. When was the cell phone probably invented?A. in the late 1940sB. in the beginning of the 21st centuryC. in 2014D. long before the 1940s67. The underlined word “curb” in Paragraph 2 means __________.A. rescueB. ignoreC. developD. control68. The example of a woman talking on the phone all the way supports the idea that _____.A. women use cell phones more often than menB. talking on the phone for a long time will harm youC. cell phones are affecting our real-world communicationD. cell phones make one-on-one personal contact quite easy69. What can we infer from the passage?A. Cigarettes are not as addictive as cell phones.B. Overusing cell phones won’t make our life more enjoyable.C. We young people don’t have as many friends as our parents.D. People will not use cell phones in the future any more.70. Which of the following best explains the title of the passage?A. Cell phone users smoke less than they used to.B. Cell phones have become as addictive as cigarettes.C. More people prefer cell phones to cigarettes.D. Using cell phones is just as cool as smoking cigarettes.PART FOUR WRITING (45 marks)SECTION A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram / Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage.Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.How do you know if your home is an easy aim for thieves? Nowadays, around the holidays, many families have their houses broken into. Why? They don’t consider taking proper measures to prevent their homes from suffering holiday thefts. With just a few simple steps, you can better make sure of the safety of your home during all of the holiday celebrations. Here are a few tips.Leave your pets with a friend. If thieves notice a neighbor or friend come into your house to take care of your pets every day, they will know you are not home.Leave some lights on. Set several different lights in your house on random timers (随机定时器). Don’t leave your outdoor lights on all the time. Instead, put your outside lights on timers to be on during the nights. If an outdoor light remains on for days at a time, it means that nobody is home to turn it off.Empty your mail box. Either have a trusted neighbor pick up your mail and newspapers, or tell your mailperson to hold your mail until you return. Nothing says “Hey, we are not home!” like when your postbox is filled with all kinds of mails and you have many different newspapers in your driveway.Close all your curtains when you leave home. This is effective to discourage possible thefts, as no one can see what is in your house. If they don’t know what there is to take, then they won’t risk breaking into your house purposelessly.This article has just offered a few tips to help you keep your house safe while you are on holiday. Nothing can truly protect your home unless you pay enough attention to safety or have it monitored by a professional home security system. (302 words)Title: How to be free from 71。

Today it has become almost as important to every family as food and water! This year, the World Wide Web has turned 25 years old. What many people don’t know is that the web was at first created to improve communication between thousands of scientists in Switzerland.In 1989, Tim Berners-Lee was a 34-year-old British physicist working as a software（软件）engineer at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Researchin Switzerland. Since CERE was a huge organization with thousands of scientists, communication between them was becoming increasingly difficult.Berners-Lee wanted to develop a system to solve the problem. His paper suggestedan information system, where a page on one computer could have a link to another page on another computer ( connected through the Internet) allowing scientists to read lots of information quickly. However, Berners-Lee’s boss said that it sounded exciting but impossible.Even though there were many difficulties and few supporters, Berners-Lee went on to develop the World Wide Web. He came up with ideas such as Hyper-text Transfer Protocol（超文本传输协议）to allow computers to talk to each other, Hyper-text Markup Language (HTML) to create the pages, a server to serve the pages, and a browser （浏览器）to see them.In December 1990, the World Wide Web was demonstrated（展示）and in 1991, the WWW project was made public, so that other programmers could develop their own browsers. Berners-Lee believed that it could be used for more than scientific purposes. He wanted the Internet to be easy for anyone to use-a free open software. His wishes soon came true.Although the World Wide Web has today turned into a completely different thing from what it meant at first, it has become necessary and important to our lives, powering our mobile technologies and the way we get information.56.

You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving, consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll clam up. Instead, let him attempt to solve things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him, if he should seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy（隐私）. Never read his mail or listen to his personalconversations.Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for 15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation（节制）. Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job.61.
