Last year, he married one of his classmates.The beautiful woman spent much time in learning nothing during middle school. But she wasn't worried about anything in the future, because her parents were very rich and could provide her with everything.So he could make poor Mr White listen to her. Mr White was busy in dealing with school affairs and his wife had to stay at home alone.But she hated the lonely and boring life.Her father introduced her to some businessmen who wanted to employ her .But she wanted to stay with children.So her husband was asked to allow her to work in his school.At first her husband didn't agree with her. She didn't supply money to him any more, so the poor man had to give in.Otherwise , his school would shut down for lack of her money.

It was difficult forme to read my newspaper with all the noise.At the next stop, a pregnant（怀孕的）woman and her daughter got on with lots of shopping bags.I expected the boys to letthem sit down.They saw the woman but they did nothing.I had to ask them to give the woman and her daughter seats. They did so but gave me a rude look.Last Saturday, I had dinner with my friend’s family.I was glad to see his children,who I hadn't seen for ten years.During the dinner, I started talking about world politics with the children.It soon became clear that they didn't know much aboutit.They couldn't tell me the name of the King of Spain or President of Italy.All theyknew about was the Internet or which singers were the most beautiful.In my days, students knew the kings, the queens and the presidents of every country in Europe.I worry about the future of Germany.How could these young people become good workers and parents? They sit around McDonald's after school instead of going to the library like I did at their age.Maybe they have too much money.Perhaps some readerscan give us some ideas about what to do with this “lost generation”.Yours sincerely,Frantz Vogts.45.Mr. Vogts writes this letter to the editor to _______.A.show how rude the boys wereB.express his worry about his friend’s children’s futureC.show how lazy young people nowadays areplain the way some young people acted46.When Mr Vogts met the boys on the underground , he_______.A.knew there was no hope for him to get a seatB.felt he would be in troubleC.thought they should have been studying instead of staying thereD.expected that they would get off at the next stop47.Mr Vogts was disappointed at the dinner because _______.A.he was not politely treatedB.he had different opinions on the world politics from his friendC.the children cared more about the Internet than heD.the children did not know much about world politics48.By saying “lost generation”, Mr Vogts refers to ________.A.the fact that he is angry with young people todayB.the people at his ageC.his worry about these young peopleD.today’s young peopleCA lawyer and a young lady were sitting next to each other on a long flight. The lawyer asked if she would like to play a fun game. The lady just wanted to take a nap, so she politely refused.The lawyer explained that the game was actually very easy. He explained “I ask you a question, and if you don’t know the answer, you pay me, and vice versa（反之亦然）.” Again, the lady politely refused and tried to get some sleep.The lawyer added eagerly, “Okay, if you don’t know the answer, you pay me $5, and if I don’t know the answer, I will pay you $50!” Considering that there would be no end to this suffering unless she played, the lady agreed.The lawyer asked the first question, “What is the distance from the earth to the moon?” The young lady didn't say a word, pulled out five dollars from her purse and handed it to the lawyer.Now, it was the lady’s turn. She asked the lawyer, “What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?” The lawyer was greatly puzzled. He took out his computer and searched all of his references. He searched the Net and sent e-mails to all of his friends, but it was all to no avail. After over an hour, he woke up the lady and handed her $50. The lady politely took the money and turned away to get back to sleep.The lawyer, very puzzled now, woke the lady up again and asked, “Well, what on earth is the answ er?” Without a word, the lady reached into her purse, handed the lawyer another $5 and went back to sleep.49.

Which of the following best describes the meaning of the underlined words?A. No messages arrivedB. No one could help himC. The Net failed to workD. Nobody answered his e-mails51.

The author’s purpose for writing the story is to .A. tell us how clever the lady isB. describe the rules of playing gamesC. show that it is interesting to play gamesD. make fun of the lawyerDHow to protect children Web fans from unsuitable material on-line while encouraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in the US.For some parents, the Internet can seem like a jungle, filled with danger for their children. But jungles contain wonders as well as danger. With good guides, some education, and a few precautions(预防 ), the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated. “Kids have to be on-line. If we tell our kids they can’t be allowed to surf the Internet, we’re cutting them off from their future,” said an expert.Most kids have started to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding tons of interesting Internet sites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way would be to use what is kno wn as a “content screener”. But this can’t be wholly reliable(可靠 ), and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is surfing the Internet.A few other tips:—Do not put the PC in a child’s room but keep it in an area where mum or dad can keep an eye on things. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity.—Ask your child what he or she has been doing and about any friends they make on-line.―Tell your child not to give on-line strangers personal information, especially like address and phone number.And tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on-line over the phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along.53.What is the best way to protect children from improper material?A. To talk to the children and persuade them to tell right from wrong.B. To be nearby when the children are surfing the Internet.C. To fix a content screener on the computer.D. To buy some search engines for children.54.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Surfing the Internet is the best way of educating children.B. Using a content screener is most reliable for keeping children from having waysto the Internet.C. Searching engines can help children to select materials fit for them.D.Children’s not having chances to go to the Internet may have effect on theirprogress.55.According to the passage, we can infer that ____.A. softwares that are fit for children who want programmingB. the Internet contains a lot of harmful sitesC. the Internet will be protected by lawD.a child who is on-line is in danger56.What does the passage tell us most?A. EducationB. Good guidesC. PrecautionsD. SoftwareEOf all the things our wisdom tells us will make life entirely happy, the greatest is the possession of friendship. One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives. Friends are very rare jewels, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed.On the first Sunday in August, it’s time to recognize your friends and their contribution to your life. The first Sunday in August was fixed as National Friendship Day by the U.S. Congress in 1935, and remains a tradition observed in many countries and cultures. In 1997, the United Nations named Winnie the Pooh as the world’s Ambassador of Friendship.Apparently, there are several friendship holidays, all of which fall on fixed dates.National Friendship Day is on the first Sunday in AugustWomen’s Friendship Day is on the third Sunday in SeptemberInternational Friendship Month is FebruaryOld Friends, New Friends Week is the third week of MayPeople show their appreciation for friendship in various ways. Some expressions may be practical ones, such as flowers, particularly the pink friendship roses, cookies, chocolates, souvenirs from their vacations, a tape of favorite songs, farewell dinners, and welcome balloons.Recipe for Friendship 2 cups of patience, 1 heart full of love, 2 handfuls of generosity, 2 cups of loyalty, 1 cup of understanding, A dash of laughter. Mix them all well. Spray generously over a lifetime and serve everyone you meet.Friendship helps to bring peace and positivity to the globe, another great reason to celebrate! Although our friends certainly deserve thanks on more than just one day of the year, what better day to honor them than Friendship Day!!57. Which of the following proverbs supports the main idea of the first paragraph?A. Friendship cannot stand always on one side.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C.

I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there's a big difference between "being a writer" and "writing".(61)________ "You've got to want to write," I say to them, "not want to be a writer."The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poorly-paid affair.(62)________ When I left a 20-year job in the US Coast Guard to become a writer, I had no hopes at all.

B Dear editor, I am writing to ask what has happened to our young people.They are not as polite or hard-working as my generation（一代人I will give you two examples. Last Friday, I got on the underground at 9:15 a.m. It was very crowded so there was no freeseat.There were some boys sitting on the seats near me.I didn't know why they were not at school.They were talking and laughing loudly. It was difficult for me to read my newspaper with all the noise.At the next stop, a pregnant（怀孕的）woman and her daughter got on with lots of shopping bagsI expected the boys to let them sit down.They saw the woman but they did nothing.I had to ask them to give the woman and her daughter seats. They did so but gave me a rude look. Last Saturday, I had dinner with my friend’s family.I was glad to see his children, who I hadn't seen for ten years.During the dinner, I started talking about world politics with the children.It soon became clear that they didn't know much about it.They couldn't tell me the name of the King of Spain or President of Italy.All they knew about was the Internet or which singers were the most beautiful.In my days, students knew the kings, the queens and the presidents of every country in Europe. I worry about the future of Germany.How could these young people become good workers and parents? They sit around McDonald's after school instead of going to the library like I did at their age.Maybe they have too much money.Perhaps some readers can give us some ideas about what to do with this “lost generation”. Yours sincerely, Frantz Vogts. 45.Mr. Vogts writes this letter to the editor to _______. A.show how rude the boys were B.express his worry about his friend’s children’s future C.show how lazy young people nowadays are plain the way some young people acted 46.When Mr Vogts met the boys on the underground , he_______.

The lawyer asked if she would like to play a fun game. The lady just wanted to take a nap, so she politely refused. The lawyer explained that the game was actually very easy. He explained “I ask you a question, and if you don’t know the answer, you pay me, and vice versa（反之亦然）.” Again, the lady politely refused and tried to get some sleep. The lawyer added eagerly, “Okay, if you don’t know the answer, you pay me $5, and if I don’t know the answer, I will pay you $50!” Considering that there would be no end to this suffering unless she played, the lady agreed. The lawyer asked the first question, “What is the distance from the earth to the moon?” The young lady didn't say a word, pulled out five dollars from her purse and handed it to the lawyer. Now, it was the lady’s turn. She asked the lawyer, “What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?” The lawyer was greatly puzzled. He took out his computer and searched all of his references. He searched the Net and sent e-mails to all of his friends, but it was all to no avail.After over an hour, he woke up the lady and handed her $50. The lady politely took the money and turned away to get back to sleep. The lawyer, very puzzled now, woke the lady up again and asked, “Well, what on earth is the answer?” Without a word, the lady reached into her purse, handed the lawyer another $5 and went back to sleep. 49. The lawyer tried to persuade the lady to play the game because he .A. knew he could winB. wanted to have fun with the ladyC. wanted to lose money to herD. liked to chat with young ladies 50.

The author’s purpose for writing the story is to .A. tell us how clever the lady isB. describe the rules of playing gamesC. show that it is interesting to play gamesD. make fun of the lawyer D How to protect children Web fans from unsuitable material on-line while encouraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in the US. For some parents, the Internet can seem like a jungle, filled with danger for their children. But jungles contain wonders as well as danger. With good guides, some education, and a few precautions(预防), the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated. “Kids have to be on-line. If we tell our kids they can’t be allowed to surf the Internet, we’re cutting them off from their future,” said an expert. Most kids have started to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding tons of interesting Internet sites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way would be to use what is known as a “content screener”. But this can’t be wholly reliable(可靠 ), and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is surfing the Internet. A few other tips: —Do not put the PC in a child’s room but keep it in an area where mum or dad can keep an eye on things. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity. —Ask your child what he or she has been doing and about any friends they make on-line. Tell your child not to give on-line strangers personal information, especially like address and phone number. And tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on-line over the phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along. 53.What is the best way to protect children from improper material? A. To talk to the children and persuade them to tell right from wrong. B. To be nearby when the children are surfing the Internet. C. To fix a content screener on the computer. D. To buy some search engines for children. 54.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? A. Surfing the Internet is the best way of educating children. B. Using a content screener is most reliable for keeping children from having ways to the Internet. C. Searching engines can help children to select materials fit for them. D.Children’s not having chances to go to the Internet may have effect on their progress. 55.According to the passage, we can infer that ____. A. softwares that are fit for children who want programming B. the Internet contains a lot of harmful sites C. the Internet will be protected by law D.a child who is on-line is in danger 56.What does the passage tell us most?A. EducationB. Good guidesC. PrecautionsD. Software E Of all the things our wisdom tells us will make life entirely happy, the greatest is the possession of friendship. One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives. Friends are very rare jewels, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. On the first Sunday in August, it’s time to recognize your friends and their contribution to your life. The first Sunday in August was fixed as National Friendship Day by the U.S. Congress in 1935, and remains a tradition observed in many countries and cultures. In 1997, the United Nations named Winnie the Pooh as the world’s Ambassador of Friendship. Apparently, there are several friendship holidays, all of which fall on fixed dates. National Friendship Day is on the first Sunday in August Women’s Friendship Day is on the third Sunday in September International Friendship Month is February Old Friends, New Friends Week is the third week of May People show their appreciation for friendship in various ways. Some expressions may be practical ones, such as flowers, particularly the pink friendship roses, cookies, chocolates, souvenirs from their vacations, a tape of favorite songs, farewell dinners, and welcome balloons. Recipe for Friendship 2 cups of patience, 1 heart full of love, 2 handfuls of generosity, 2 cups of loyalty, 1 cup of understanding, A dash of laughter. Mix them all well. Spray generously over a lifetime and serve everyone you meet. Friendship helps to bring peace and positivity to the globe, another great reason to celebrate! Although our friends certainly deserve thanks on more than just one day of the year, what better day to honor them than Friendship Day!! 57. Which of the following proverbs supports the main idea of the first paragraph? A. Friendship cannot stand always on one side. B. A friend in need is a friend indeed. C.

A41．We can learn from the text that in the future______.A．people will never get old B．everyone will look the sameC．red will be the most popular color D．clothes will be able to change their pattern 42．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A．Milk will be harmful to health.B．More drinks will be available for sale.C．Food in the grocery store will carry electronic information.D．Milk in the grocery store will stay fresh much longer.43．Which of the following is mentioned in the text?A．Nothing can replace the Internet.

B．Future technology in everyday life. C．Medical treatments of the future. D．The reason for the success of new technology.BIn our life, we have rarely expressed our gratitude to the one who lived those years with us. In fact, we don't have to wait for anniversaries to thank the ones closest to us and the ones so easily overlooked. If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is this: give it now! While your feeling of appreciation is alive and sincere, act on it. Saying thanks is such an easy way to add to the world's happiness.Saying thanks not only brightens someone else's world, it brightens yours. If you're feeling left out, unloved or unappreciated, try reaching out to others. It may be just the medicine you need. Of course, there are times when you can't express gratitude immediately. In that case, don't let embarrassment sink you into silence and speak up the first time you have the chance.Once a young minister, Mark Brian, was sent to a remote parish(教区)of Kwakiutl Indians in British Columbia. The Indians, he had been told, did not have a word for thank you. But Brian soon found that these people had unusual generosity. Instead of saying thanks, it is their custom to return every favor with a favor of their own, and every kindness with an equal or superior kindness. They do their thanks. I wonder if we had no words in our vocabulary for thank you, would we do a better job of communicating our gratitude? Would we be more responsive, more sensitive, more caring?Thankfulness sets in motion a chain reaction that transforms people all around us－including ourselves. For no one ever misunderstands the melody(旋律)of a grateful heart. Its message is universal; its poems transcend(超越)all earthly barriers; its music touches the heaven.45. Who do we easily forget to express our thanks to according to the writer?A. Friends not meeting for a long time.B. Former teachers and friends.C. People we want to get close to.D. Our family members and good friends.46. When we say something for what others do for us, it ______.A. benefits the people who do something for usB. is good for both us and people who help usC. wastes our and our friends' time at the same timeD. does harm to both us and people who help us47. What does the writer mean in the third paragraph?A. The only way to thank others is to express by your own words.B. The best way to thank others is to do something for them.C. We can thank people who help us in various ways.D. We can thank people who help us in two ways.48. The way to make us feel happy is ______ when we think we ourselves are forgotten in the world.A. to help and appreciate othersB. to ask others to help usC. to remind others of our helping themD. to ask someone to help othersCThousands of people in the world are a hundred years old －or more and certain parts of the world are famous for the long lives of their inhabitants: the Vilacamba V alley in Ecuador, and the home of the Hunzas in the Himalayas.Why do so many people live to a healthy old age in certain parts of the world? What is thesecret of their long lives? Three things seem to be very important: fresh air, fresh food and a simple way of life. People work near their homes in the clean mountain air instead of traveling long distances to work by bus, car or train. They do not sit all day in busy offices or factories, but work hard outdoors in the fields. They take more exercise and eat less food than people in the cities of the West. For years the Hunzas of the Himalayas did not need policemen, lawyers or doctors. There was no crime, no divorce and not much illness in their society. They were a happy, peaceful people, famous all over India for their long, healthy lives.Do you want to live to a hundred years old? Here are some rules for success. First, live in the right place. Second, choose the right kind of job. Doctors, dentists and bus－drivers die young. Farmers, priests and orchestral conductors live much longer. If you are in the wrong kind of job, you can still improve your way of life.An old man in the Caucasus was talking about his past life. “I was young then，” he said, as he described his 87th year. His secret was: “Think young and stay young.” An old woman from Missouri, the USA, gave this advice, “Drink a little whisky and some warm beer every day.” An English lady just said, “Take a cold bath every morning.” The shortest, s implest piece of advice came from Mr Jim Chapman, aged 103. “Just keep breathing，” he told reporters.49.

The best way to build a good vocabulary, therefore, is to read a great deal and to participate in a lot of good talks. There are relatively few words that we learn permanently by purposefully referring to dictionaries or keeping word lists. However, even those extra few are of value, and no one will make a mistake by working on developing a larger vocabulary. Here are some suggestions of how to do it.Read plenty of good books. When you come across a new word, or a new meaning of an old word, stop and see if you can understand it from its context. If you can't, and if you can manage without interrupting the thought of the book too much, look it up in a dictionary or ask somebody and then repeat its meaning to yourself a couple of times. If you are really conscientious(认真的), write the word and its meaning in a personal vocabulary list －preferably using it in a sentence, oryou can keep a special vocabulary notebook. Go over the list from time to time. Further, try to use a new word in writing or conversation a few times over the next several days.Listen to good talks and be alert to new words you hear or to new meanings of words you already know. Then treat them just as you treat the new words you read.Learn and be alert to the parts of words: prefixes, suffixes and roots. Knowing them enables you to make intelligent guesses about the meanings of words.If you are studying a foreign language, be alert to words in that language which relate to words in English. English has inherited(继承) or borrowed much of its vocabulary of 500 000～600 000 words from Latin, Greek, French, Spanish and German.53. When you meet a new word in reading, what should you do?A. Guess its meaning.B. Ask somebody.C. Look it up in a dictionary.D. All of the above.54.
