My 45 went back to my school days again. I could almost 46 the chalk dust in the air. I suppose few schools still use chalk and blackboards. They have probably been 47 with newer equipment and large computer screens

A
When my now 19-year-old daughter Shanna was in Grade 3, all of Mrs Mathews’ students were given a small pot with a bean seed to plant．Green string beans are pretty strong and the perfect seed to use when promoting green thumbs （园艺技能）in young children.
Once the bean plants had flowered，their teacher allowed the kids to carefully transport it from school to home．Once home，Shanna looked around for the perfect location and settled on a sunny south window sill （窗台）and then proudly declared，“Soon I can feed the whole family！”
Shanna’s sisters were jealous and even our cat looked interested，which should have a warning to me because when I woke up the next morning，I saw that the bean plant had been unkindly knocked off the window sill．The plant, it seemed, was a goner.
As I gently began to explain that the bean plant had to be put in the compost, her reaction was not what I expected. She said, “Everything will be OK，Mom；the plant will get better．” She secured the first aid kit （急救箱）from the bathroom, and a deep belief that the sad looking near-dead bean plant would live and even produce food!
Days later，to my surprise, the bean plant was standing tall and looking lively．It was also amazing to see that the one and only bean, had become fleshy almost completely masking the claw marks that had scarred it. This time we built a castle of heavy books to keep it safe until our day of reward.
I set the table beautifully for Thanksgiving dinner. The beans were carefully divided by 5, which awarded each person 2 small pieces, claw marks and all. They turned out to be the best green beans I had ever eaten!
In my work as a youth motivator I am brought together with kids and teens that all desperately need people to believe in them. Now, more than ever, no matter what I have been told about a child or a teen and their behavior, I see everyone, no exceptions, with the same eyes and heart that my daughter used on her broken, beaten up bean plant
56. We can infer Mrs Mathew made her students .
A. eat more beans as healthy food
B. develop their ability of growing plants
C. learn the hard work of farmers
D. make a research in the bean structure
57. According to the writer, she should have thought that .
A. the plant might fall off the window sill
B. other children might be jealous of Shanna
C. the cat might make trouble to the bean plant
D. the bean plant might die for lack of sunlight
4
58. Knowing the plant was broken, Shanna .
A. had to throw it to the compost
B. decided to find out who was to blame
C. gave up the idea of feeding the whole family
D. gave the plant a first aid immediately
59. What lesson did the writer learn from her daughter?
A. Children need to be well taken care of.
B. A child with bad behaviors can become good.
C. Every child is growing like a bean plant.
D. A child is very easy to believe in others.
B
John Steinbeck’s Of M ice and Men was originally going to be
called Something That Happened. But in May 1936 his puppy ate the
written manuscript（稿）! This left him with two months work to do
over again. Steinbeck got up at dawn every morning to write. After
months of intense work, the novel was finished by the second week of
August 1936, and sent off to his agent, Elizabeth Otis.
Shortly before it was published, Of Mice and Men was chosen by
the“Book-of-the-Month”Club, guaranteeing it a large audience and big
sales, Steinbec k found the news“gratifying but also frightening.”The
book was a big success; it was published in early February 1937 and
by mid February had sold 117,000 copies. “That’s really a lot of
books,”said Steinbeck.
As it leapt into the bestseller lists, it made Steinbeck suddenly a
author. He was now a pubic person, and there were parties in his honor (in New York). But his shyness and need for privacy made this difficult for him. When he finally got away for a well-earned holiday in Europe, Steinbeck wrote in a letter: “I just need to get away from being John Steinbeck for a little while.”
Of Mice and Men is a story of loneliness, love, and need, a story of homeless and rootless men who have nothing or nobody except each other. Steinbeck expresses that everybody gets lonely and that everybody needs somebody, a friend. Crooks, the black stable hand said it plain and simple,“A guy needs somebody-to be near him.” He complained, “a guy goes nuts （失去理智）if he ain’t got nobody. Don’t make no difference who the guy is, I tell ya,” he cried, “I tell ya, a guy gets too lonely, an he gets sick.”
George’s taking care of Lennie and the dream of the farm are attempts to break the pattern of loneliness that is part of the human condition. Similarly , Lennie’s desire t o pet soft things comes from his need to feel safe and secure, to touch something that gives him that feeling of not being alone in the world. For Lennie, the dream of the farm means that security.
Steinbeck reinforces （加强）the theme of loneliness in subtle and not so subtle ways. Near the farm, for example, is the town of Soledad. The town’s name, not accidentally, means“solitude”or“alone.”Also, the others’ reactions to George and Lennie traveling together reinforces th at, in Steinbeck’s world, traveling with someone else is unusual.
60. How long has Of Mice and Men been published after it was finished?
A. For two months.
B. For three months
C. For about six months.
D. For about a year.
61. The underlined word “gratifying” in the second paragraph probably means .
A. indifferent
B. disgusting
C. delighting
D. ridiculous
62. What cat we learn from the third paragraph?
A. Attending all kinds of parties was Steinbeck’s favorite.
B. In order to find private time, Seinbeck went to Europe.
C. Steinbeck lost himself after he gained the honor in New York.
D. Steinbeck was difficult to get along with because of his shyness.
5
63. How did Lennie remove his loneliness?
A. By taking care of his friend.
B. By taking about his dream.
C. By working hard make money.
D. By touching something soft.
C
Jung-Ping Lin China
For me, the most impressive commercial I ever saw was a
diamond commercial. Early in the morning ,a couple of lovers
were standing on a deck（甲板）, facing a beautiful lake . The
man began the conversation in a serious tone and said, ”We have
been together for a long time ,and I don’t think we should let our
relationship ke ep going like this.”
Hearing that ,the girl turned toward the man, an expression
of surprise and sadness appeared on her face. She clearly thought
he wanted to leave her, but then the man presented her a ring
which he had been holding behind his back.
When the girl saw the ring , she smiled like a flower .She
realized that he was proposing to her. Then the film showed their
wedding in a church. Both of them were smiling sweetly. I loved
that commercial because the view was so beautiful. In fact , this
was a very popular commercial among young single adults in my country.
Christine Leprince from France
The commercial, I recall, took place on a bus, A girl was going
to enjoy a chocolate bar. Everything around her was quiet. When
she was starting to bite into her bar, there was a terrible shaking.
The girl was surprised, but instead of stopping, she went on and
crunched （咬碎）into it another time. That time, it was like an
earthquake around her. The girl was so greedy that she didn’t
care about what was happening around her.
In my opinion, that TV commercial was very effective. Humor
and surprise were combined to create a funny ad. It seemed that
chocolate bar was so delicious that you could forget the world
around you. I believe that many people, especially children,
must have liked this commercial and been influenced to buy that chocolate bar.
Why did the girl feel surprised and sad ?
A. Because the man wanted to leave her.
B. Because the man didn’t show her the ring
C. Because she misunderstood the man’s meaning.
D. Because the man spoke in a serious tone
What happened when the girl was about to eat the chocolate bar?
A. Everybody became quiet.
B. the bus shook violently.
C. An earthquake happened.
D. The bus came to a stop.
Why did Christine Leprince like the ad?
Because it was about chocolate.
Because one could forget the world around.
Because the chocolate was delicious.
D. Because it combined humor and surprise.
What are these two people talking about?
A. Their most impressive commercials.
B. Their most liked products.
C. Different kinds of commercials.
D. The making of commercials.

Wa tching the Northern Lights shining on the sky’s natural canvas may be on your list already, but be prepared to up the money.
A developer is creating a floating, snowflaked -shaped glass hotel from which guests can stare in fear at the Northern Lights from their beds. The project is called Krystall. Eighty-six luxury rooms will be covered within a glass structure alongside conference rooms and a spa（温泉）, all of which is only accessible by boat.
The stationary （静止的）hotel will be built near in northern Norway reportedly between bays. It will be constructed, in pieces, in dry docks, before being fit together on location.
Explaining the physics and design of the hotel, Kone Olthuis, Dutch architect and founder of Waterstudio, a specialist in floating structures, said: “The floating base is very big and because of that also very stable. You will not notice any movement. Different to any vessel （舰）this hotel is a floating building and will not move. The shape provides most of the stability but cables are used to take away any speed.”
“Same look and feel as a land based hotel but then on the most beautiful spot on the water. The hotel is not connected to land so all the things will be provided by boats.”
According to Mr Olthuis, who wouldn’t tell the actual cost of the project, the budget is 15 per cent more than it would have been if it were built on land. He said that an important thing to the hotel’s construction was for its creation to be “scarless”on the perfect environment surrounding it.
“We call it a scarless development. If you take it away after a hundred years or so it will not leave any physical footprint. That is the only way to bring developments to such a valuable and beautiful marine environment in Norway.”
It is hoped that the hotel will be “self-supporting sustainable” using top of the range technology, helping to support the “growing eco-tourism market.”
“Dutch Docklands has learned to live with the water instead of fighting it,” the firm states. “Floating houses are common in the Netherlands but we took that technology abroad and scale it up in size.”
68. What do we know about Krystall?
A. It is built as a whole at a time
B. It is designed for enjoying the Northern Lights.
C. It can float here and there stably.
D. It is constructed with glass for every room.
69. According to Mr Olthuis, what concerns most about the hotel is .
A. how to keep it existing for hundred years
B. how to cause no damage to each piece
C. how to build it with a lot less money
D. how to make it environmentally friendly
70. What Mr Othlis said in the last paragraph implies that .
A. Dutch developed a sense of adapting to nature
B. eco-tourism is a growing market in the Netherlands
C. it needs technology to build floating houses
D. it is common to see house floating on water
71. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Build a floating houses to live in.
B. View the Northern Lights in a floating hotel.
C. Live with water in a glass hotel in Norway.
D. Use the Northern Lights in a glass hotel.

One's beliefs are revealed not so much in words as in the assumptions on which one habitually acts and in the basic values by which all choices are tested.
The foundation of my own value system was laid in childhood with parents who believed that personal honesty came first. They never asked, ”What will people think?” The question was, “What will you think of yourself, if you do this or fail to do that?” Thus, living up to one’s own concept of oneself became a basic value,
A second basic value, in some ways an extension of the first, I owe to an old college professor, who
7
had suffered more than his share of sadness and trouble. Over and over he said to us, “The one thing that really matters is to be bigger than the things that can happen to you. Nothing that can happen to you is more important that the was you end it”
Gradually I realized that here was the basis of the only real security and peace of mind that a human being can have. Nobody can be sure when disaster, disappointment, or injustice may come to him through no fault of his own. Nor can one be guaranteed aga inst one’s own mistakes and failures. But the way we meet life is ours to choose. The acceptance of these two basic values led to a third. If what one is and how one meets life are of first importance, one is not impressed by another's money, status, or power, nor does one judge people by their race, color, or social position. This opens up a whole new world of relationships, for when friendships are based on qualities of mind and character, one can have friends among old and young, rich and poor, famous and unknown, educated and unlettered, and among people of all races and all nations.
Given these three basic values, a fourth became necessary. It is one's responsibility to help create a social order. Human beings must have an opportunity for the fullest development of which they are capable. One is thus led to work for a world of freedom and justice through those social agencies and institutions which make it possible for people everywhere to realize their highest potentialities. Perhaps all these add up to a belief in what has been called the human use of human beings. When we pray, or feel pity, when we think and reason, pursue ideas, seek truth, or read a book, when we protect the weak and helpless, when we honor the noble and cherish the good, when we cooperate with our fellow men to build a better world, our behavior is worthy of our status as human beings.
72. What is the most important value according to the author?
A. Face grief and trouble positively.
B. Live up to one’s own conception of ones elf
C. Begin a wide relationship with people around.
D. Help create a social order.
73. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 probably means .
A. we can choose how to face our life
B. our mind can be peaceful after some failures
C. we can choose our own life
D. each of us can make mistakes sometimes
74. What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A. We might as well help social agencies function well
B. We should think and reason while reading a book
C. We can cooperate to build social institutions
D. When we help those in need and admire the noble, we achieve the human use of human beings.
75. Where does this text probably come from?
A. Science fiction.
B. Children’s literature.
C. A magazine
D. A news report.

As we all know, kindness is a very important part of living. Kindness is not something that can necessarily be paid back. It doesn't take much to be kind. A smile, a gentle look, a gentle touch on the arm, and a hug will let people know that you care about them.
Students should learn how to be kind to others．But in what ways? First of all, we should respect others．Everybody has their own way to do things, so we should understand each other．Besides, it is important for us to communicate with each other and share our happiness and sadness．What’s more, we should offer necessary help to those who are in trouble．Then we will feel very happy.
So why don't you try a random act of kindness? I think you'll like how you feel, and you will like the results.

W: John, where are the cookies? I can’t find them in the fridge. Don't tell me you ate them all! Again! M: Yes, I did. I couldn't help it. They were so good.
W: I thought you didn't like cookies.
M: Well, I don't like cookies flavored with meat at all. But chocolate is different. I love them to death. W: Huh, I didn't know that.
M: Well, tell you what, chocolate cookies taste even better with a glass of cold milk.

M: Well done! Congratulations, Kate! All the members of your team run so fast.
W: Thank you. I felt sorry for Peter. He dropped the relay stick.
M: Who won the boy’s high jump? Do you know the result?

W: Can I help you?
M: Yes. My sociology class is supposed to read a chapter in a book called Sociology and the modern age. But I can’t find it.
W: Let me see. Oh yes. It’s on reserve. You need to go to a special room called the reserves room to read it.
M: I’m sorry. I still don’t understand what you mean by “on reserve”.
W: You see, if one student takes the book from the library, none of the other students will get to read it. So your professor placed it on reserve.
M: So will I be able to find this book?
W: Yes, you can go to the reserves room and ask the reserve librarian for it.
M: Can I take it out of the reserves room?
W: No. You can have it for a few hours, and you MUST read it in the room.
M: OK. Thank you. I understand now.
W: Is there anything else?
M: NO! I’m on my way to the reserves room. Thanks again!
