22．（8分）At times we all get angry when we are driving. It might be because we are stuck in a traffic jam or stuck behind a very slow driver. t might be because we think another driver has done something very stupid and dangerous. Whatever the reason, it seems that getting angry in a car is something which happens more and more
often and there is now a special term for it: "road rage". Some experts even think that road rage is a kind of mental illness! How can we recognize this "illness" of road rage?
There are two kinds of road rage: aggressive driving and aggressive reactions to the way other people are driving. Aggressive driving can take different forms:
●Driving much faster than the speed limit.
●Increasing your speed very quickly.
●Driving very close behind the car in front and sounding the horn or flas hing the headlights.
●Changing lanes very suddenly and blocking another car.
●Moving into a parking space where another ear is trying to park.
There are also different reactions to the way other people are driving. These include:
●Making rude signs at peop le.
●Shouting at people and threatening them.
●Deliberately driving into another person's car.
●Hitting somebody.
●Using a weapon such as a baseball bat, or even a gun or a knife.
Road rage is certainly not a joke. There have been incidents of road rage which have led to serious injuries and even murder. Experts think that one reason for road rage is that films show a lot of examples of fast and aggressive driving such as car chases where this kind of driving seems to he positive.
Experts also think that the punishments for dangerous driving are not serious enough. Experience shows that driving problems can be controlled，but it takes a long time. In the UK in the last 30 years，the police have been quite successful in reducing the number of people who drink and drive. They are now working to stop people using mobile phones when they are driving. Let's hope they can have the same success with road rage.
1、Which of the following describes aggressive reactions to the way other people are driving？
A．Making polite signs at people.
B．Shouting at people and threatening them.
C．Driving much faster than the speed limit.
D．Moving into a parking space where another car is trying to park.
2、Road rage happens possibly because______.
A．we are in a fast-changing society
B．it won't cause serious injuries or death
C．the drivers themselves have done something stupid
D．the drivers won't get severe punishments for dangerous driving
3、What's the tone of the last paragraph？
A．Sad. B．Cold.
C．Optimistic. D．Exciting.
23．（8分）Children often suffer pain and insecurity when their parents separate.When my ex-husband and I split up after 10 years of marriage,our daughter was 5 years old and my son only 3.We decided to consult a psychologist about the best way to explain this new situation to the children.
She shared with us this special story about a land turtle and a sea
turtle,which we then used to help them better comprehend.
Once upon a time,a land turtle (Mommy) met a sea turtle (Daddy) close to a beautiful shore.Soon they fell deeply in love and decided to get married.For a time,they continued to live at the water's edge so that Mommy could sit on the sand and keep dry and warm,while Daddy sat in the shallow water to keep cool.A few years later two baby turtles arrived (you both!).They were very special indeed and looked a little like each of their parents.
But as the years went by,Daddy sea turtle started spending more and more time in the ocean as he traveled deeper and deeper to look for pearls.Mommy land turtle also started wandering up into the sands to hunt for food in the woods.Little by little,Daddy and Mommy turtle started to drift further and further apart.Finally one day,Mommy and Daddy turtle decided they didn't want to live together anymore.The little turtles continued to spend time with each of their parents.They made lots of friends with all the fish,dolphins and whales in the ocean and also many friends with the rabbits,deer,and foxes in the woods.In fact they grew up to be a new kind of turtle that could live both in the ocean and on the land.
Over the years,this tale of the land and sea turtle has helped my children
cope with and accept the fact that my marriage to their father was over.They know that we once loved each other very much and they were born out of true love.
1、The underlined “They” in the second paragraph refers to.
A．the two baby turtles B．the land turtle and the sea turtle

means .
A．make sense B．become disconnected C．break down D．get excited 4、We can probably find the passage in the co lumn “”.

24．（8分）The sun was setting and the farm would be closing. I dressed our three daughters quickly as my husband started the van. Cutting down our own Christmas tree had been a family tradition. As our family grew，so did our excitement for going out to find the perfect tree.
As we walked through the rows of trees，my youngest daughter Kimberly shouted excitedly，“There it is，the perfect tree!”The other two agreed. My husband and I looked at each other puzzled. We were surprised the girls thought that straggly (凌乱的）little tree was perfect. Its branches were misshappen(畸形的）and the trunk was visible through the spots where there were no pine needles.
We tried to persuade our daughters into changing their minds, but in vain. We had to tie the sad little tree to the roof of our van and headed home. As we reached our house, Heather jumped out first. Suddenly she shouted，“The tree isn’t there! ”We thought she was kidding. However，it wasn’t there.
The g irls were so disappointed. “We’ll get another tree tomorrow，”I said, secretly hoping the new tree would be prettier. But the girls gave us the look that no parent can resist. We had no choice but to go back and find that tree.
About five minutes into our drive, we saw it on the side of the road. As we got closer，we found it had been run over by a truck. As we lifted the tree，we saw that a big part was ripped off，but we took it home anyway.
That night，as we decorated our tree，something magical happened. We d idn’t realize it at the time but we were making a very special family memory. By the time we were done，I had to admit，it didn’t look sad after all. “This is the best tree we ever had. It’s perfect!，”my second daughter Samantha said excitedly. My husband and I couldn’t have agreed more!
Now we always recall that little broken tree! Year by year，we tell the story of that very special Christmas almost twenty-five years ago.

D．They turned the tree into an unforgettable one.
