At least, not in the same way they give you corn or apples or tomatoes, I mean, if someone wants to give you a few fresh, juicy peaches off their tree, they walk right up and hand them to you. You’ll be pleased. It seems that they have confidence you will like their gift. But with zucchini, they left it and went away. No note No calling card. I thought zucchini is the abandoned orphan of the vegetable kingdom.“Yeah, it’s nice, ”I said. “Who should we thank for this gift?” “I don’t know,” Rachel said. “You know how it is with zucchini.” Of c ourse I do. Nobody actually grows it. At least, not on purpose. It just grows like weeds.“So what are you going to do with yours?” I asked. “I’ll just do what I always do with zucchini.” She saidThis morning I stepped into my office area carefully, afraid of what might be there waiting for me. There was a piece of bread in a white box sitting on my desk. I picked it up. It smelled wonderful. I took a bite. It tasted wonderful.“Who made the banana bread?” I asked. Rachel said, “It isn’t banana bread. It’s zucchini bread. ” I stopped chewing. “It’s delicious! But I hate zucchini”“So do I,” Rachel admitted. “But a few years ago I found this great way to cook zucchini bread , and now I actually look forward to zucchini season”I took another bite of the bre ad. I couldn’t help wondering :“How could anything so tasty come from something so distasteful?”“It’s a fact of life,” Rachel said. “You mix effort with creativity and you can turn almost anything around”31.

For what purpose is the text written?A. To introduce ways of making zucchini breadB. To teach readers how to grow zucchiniC. To encourage people to work hardD.

"Culture matters," he said. "But more importantly, to learn Chinese and get a better understanding of the country may help me professionally." As a new student at Beijing Language and Culture University (BLCU), Gor hopes to find a job in Santa Clara's local government when he goes back home in one year. "I need to learn Chinese if I want the job, as we have a large Chinese community there."Gor is not alone in his thinking. While the number of US students in China has grown from less than 100 in the early 1980s to more than 10,000 for the time being，many of them are here to boost(提高) a professional skill as much as to enjoy a new culture.“In the past, foreign students came to China simply for our culture,” said Xu Quihan, director of BLCU’s foreign students office. “But because of China’s rapid economic and social development, being able to speak Chinese has become a useful tool to a student’s future job”There are more US students who choose to stay in the country instead of going back after graduation. Stephanie Schubmehlo, a 23-year-old from Rochester, New York State, said she would like to stay in Beijing after graduation. “I love the city, and I can earn myself a living here if I can speak good Chinese,” she said, adding that some of the US students she knows shared the same idea.35. By saying “culture matters”, GorA. questioned the popularity of ChineseB. expressed his difficulty in learning ChineseC. showed the differences between two languagesD. stressed the importance of learning about another culture36. Compared with that of the past, the present number of US students in ChinaA. has decreased greatlyB. remains slightly unchangedC. has been over 100 times largerD. has nearly doubled37. We can infer from the text that in 1984 US students learnt ChineseA. just for the fun of itB. to experience a different cultureC. to ensure themselves a promising futureD. for both cultural and professional purposes38. In Xu Qiuhan’s opinion,A. Chinese is too difficult for foreign studentsB. more and more Americans will study in ChinaC. professional skills are more important than cultureD. China’s development makes Chinese professionally usefulCWhat do you usually do when a flying insect lands on your arm? You may blow it away. But what if that insect is a ladybug (瓢虫)? It is possible that you would let it stay. What is it about ladybugs that we like?Farmers once thought ladybugs were a good lucky sign. A ladybug in the field meant the crops would be successful and that the weather would be good. The farmers may have thought too highly of such a small bug, but in fact ladybugs do help out with the crops. They eat harmful insects.Actually, it is not the adult ladybug that eats other insects. It’s the baby ladybug. When the baby ladybugs hatch (孵化), they are very hungry and will eat mites, aphids, mealy bugs, green flies, and other crop-destroyers. In the 1800s, ladybugs were brought all the way from Australia to California and set free among orange trees that were dying from being eaten by insects. They completely saved all the trees.Ladybugs go about their daily business without worrying much about anything. Very few birds or insects will eat a ladybug because it gives off a dangerous fluid (液体). Ladybugs also protect themselves by playing dead. They fall off leaves and never move until their attacker goes away.So the next time you see a ladybug, think about what it may be doing. Maybe it is off to save an orange tree. Maybe its next move will be to roll off a leaf and play dead or stand up to a bird about 100 times its size. Maybe it’s letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow. Who knows? Ladybugs are special that way.39. Ladybugs were brought from Australia to California in the 1800s to .A. add more ladybugs to areaB. report the weather for farmersC. act as a lucky sign of good cropsD. save orange trees by eating insects40. From the passage we know that .A. it’s the adult ladybug that eats most of the harmful insectsB. ladybugs often roll off a leaf and play dead to attack the birdsC. ladybugs can give off a dangerous fluid to protect themselvesD. the baby ladybug mainly eats mites, aphids, mealy bugs, and oranges41. The underlined phrase “stand up to” most probably means .A. watchB. supportC. saveD. fight42. Which of the following may the author agree with?A. Ladybugs do harm to nature.B. Ladybugs are unusual insects.C. Ladybugs are dangerous insects.D. Ladybugs eat more than they should.DFew kids today are taught the value of empathy (同感；同情心). It seems so hard for people to show their love and care toward others and to actually understand what they are going through.As a child I was taught to go out of my way to make someone else happy. My mom would tell me to say at least one kind word to someone else every day. I admit that it wasn’t very easy to do. But as soon as you see the look of gratitude (感激) in that person’s eyes, you just want to d o as much as you can.I had an experience with a guy that people were always making fun of. Every time I saw that happening, I knew in my heart that it was wrong. I decided I would try to be his friend. I started walking with him and introducing him to people around us. I was making him happy by just doing that. And I loved the fact that I was really making a difference in his life.After a while I realized that he wasn’t the kind of person everybody thought he was. We are still really good friends today. People have almost completely stopped making fun of him. But he is still what he was. What had changed was the attitudes of others toward him.From this experience I’ve learned to be more loving toward other people. What I did for my friend was so easy. And at the same time I had a lot of fun. So I hope that everyone could say a kind word to someone else at least once a day.I can promise it will be the best feeling you can ever get.One kind word could make someone’s day brighter.43. We can learn from the fourth paragraph that .A. one’s attitude to others can be changedB. one’s nature can be changed as time goes byC. everyone can have a good friendshipD. people shouldn’t make fun of others44. The last two paragraphs suggest that _______.A. saying a kind word will give you friendship and funB. it is really a hard thing to say a kind word to othersC. having a lot of fun in life will help to make a good lifeD. a kind word may benefit both the speaker and the listener45. What does the writer focus on in this passage?A. Understanding.B. Friendship.C. Kindness.D. Fun.第二节短文七选五（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。
