A
Two mayors made a bet on the outcome of the Vegetable Bowl, the annual football game between their high school teams. If Arvada’s team lost, the mayor of Arvada would send the mayor of Boulder ten pounds of sliced potatoes, ready for frying. If Boulder’s team lost, the mayor would send ten pounds of sliced tomatoes, ready for sandwiches or salads.
Unfortunately, before the game started, the mayor of Boulder happened to hear the Arvada mayor tell someone: “They grow the worst tomatoes. If they lose and send us their tomatoes, I’m going to give them all to my pig.” The mayor of Boulder was upset to hear this, because he thought Boulder’s tomatoes were the best in the state. So he gave the matter some thought.
The following week, the big game was played. Boulder lost its star quarterback in the first half when he tripped (绊倒) over a cheerleader and hurt his big toe. The quarterback sadly watched the rest of the game from the bench. His team ended up losing, 38 to 12. The two mayors
shook hands after the game, and the Arvada mayor said, “I’m really looking for ward to those tomatoes.” As the Boulder team left the stadium, some unhappy fans threw ripe tomatoes at them.
A week later, the mayor of Arvada received a package of beautifully sliced tomatoes. He took them straight to his pig, which ate them right up. Th at night the mayor of Boulder asked his wife if Arvada’s mayor had called. “No,” she said. “Why?” “Because I mixed a pint (品脱) of hot sauce into the tomatoes and I wanted to know how his pig’s doing.”

D. If his team lost the game, the mayor of Boulder would eat up ten pounds of sliced potatoes.

A. Because his football team lost the game.
B. Because the two mayors had made a big plan.

More than one million children in the United States do not go to school. Instead, they learn at home. Most often, their parents are their teachers. Educational companies, libraries and the Internet provide many families with teaching material.
Parents choose home schooling for several reasons. Some choose it because of their religious beliefs. Others say it provides more time for the family to be together. They say the home offers a better place for learning. Some parents believe home schooling avoids problems of rational schools. Critics, however, say children need to attend school with other children.
All fifty American states and the District of Columbia permit home schooling. Some states do not require much preparation by parents or
testing of children. Other states have more requirements for home schooling. Home schooling in the United States began when the country was established. In farm areas, people often lived far from a school. Widespread home schooling took place until about the middle of the nineteenth century. Then, in 1852, the state of Massachusetts passed the first law requiring children to attend school.
Over the years, the American public education system strengthened and grew. By the 1960s and 1970s, however, some Americans believed that traditional education was not helping their children. So a number of parents began home schooling.
Home schooling expert Linda Dobson says many people have helped the movement grow. She says many kinds of people have joined the movement. These include rich people and poor people. They represent many races, religions and political beliefs. Ms. Dobson says the number of home-schooled children has increased by an estimated fifteen to twenty percent each year during the last fifteen years.
5. Which of the following is one of the reasons why parents choose home schooling?
A. It makes parents and their children have less time together.
B. Some people have different religious beliefs from the others.
C. It can’t provide a comfortable place for children to be in.
D. There are too many students in a home classroom.
6. Home schooling was started in ________.
A. the 1960s
B. the 1970s
C. the 1850s
D. the 1770s
7. Home schooling in the United States now is __________.
A. facing many difficulties
B. struggling
C. growing fast
D. decreasing in large numbers
C
EXERCISE IN EXACTLY 4 MINUTES PER DAY !
$ 14,615
TIME IS IT. Over 92% of people who own exercise equipment and 88% of people who own health club memberships do not exercise. A 4-minute complete workout is no longer hard to believe for all the people who have bought our excellent Range of Motion machine (ROM) since 1990. Over 97% of people who rent our ROM for 30 days end up buying it, due to the health benefits experienced during that tryout and the ROM performance score that tells the story of health and fitness improvement. At under 20 cents per use, the 4-minute ROM exercise is the least expensive full body complete exercise a person can do. How do we know that it is under 20 cents per use? Over 90% of ROM machines go to private homes, but we have a few that are in commercial use for 12 years and they have endured over 80,000 uses each, without need of repair. The
ROM 4-minute workout is for people from 10 to over 100 years old and highly trained athletes as well. The ROM balances blood sugar, and repairs bad backs and shoulders. Too good to be true? Get our free video and see for yourself. The best proof for us is that 97% of rentals become sales. Please visit our website at www. or call (800)123-6460.

President Coolidge’s statement,“The business of America is business,” still points to an important truth today that business institutions (机构) enjoy more respect and popularity in American society than any other kind of organization, including the government. Why do business institutions possess that?
One reason is that Americans view business as being more firmly based on the competition than other institutions in society. Since competition is seen as the major source of progress and successfulness by most Americans, competitive business institutions are respected. Competition is not only good in itself; it is the means by which other basic American values such as individual (个人的) freedom, equality of opportunity, and hard work are protected.
Competition protects the freedom of the individual by ensuring that there is no monopoly (垄断) of power. Different from one, all-powerful government, many businesses compete against each other for profits. Theoretically, if one business tries to take unfair advantage of its customers, it will lose to competing business which treats its customers more fairly. Wher e many businesses compete for the customers’ dollar s, they cannot afford to treat them like inferiors (下属) or slaves.
A comparison is often made between business, which is competitive, and government, which is a monopoly. Because business is competitive, many Americans believe that it is more supportive of freedom than government, even though government leaders are elected by the people and business leaders are not. Many Americans believe, then, that competition is as important, or even more important, than democracy (民主) in keeping freedom on.
Competition in business is also believed to strengthen the idea of equality of opportunity. Competition is seen as an open and fair race where successfulness goes to the swiftest (=smartest) person regardless of his or her social class background. Competitive success is commonly seen as the American alternative to social ranks (=positions) based on family background. Business is therefore viewed as an expression of the idea of equality of opportunity rather than the idea of special rights.
12. The statement “The business of America is business” probably means “______”
A. The business institutions in America are concerned with trade.
B. Business problems are of great importance to the American government.
C. Business is of primary (=major) concern to Americans.
D. America is a great power in world business.
13. Americans believe that they can realize their personal values only
______.
A. when given equality of opportunity
B. through doing business
C. by protecting their individual freedom
D. by way of competition
14. Who can benefit from business competition?
A. Honest businessmen.
B. Both businessmen and their customers.
C. People with ideas of equality and freedom.
D. Both business institutions and government.
15. It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes _____.
A. Americans have more goals than people in other countries
B. in many countries successfulness often depends on one’s social status (=position)
C. American businesses are more democratic than those in other countries
D. businesses in other countries are not as competitive as those in America
第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）__16__We are learning from life constantly, as long as we recognize and accept those lessons. When you choose to be a student of life, you open yourself to limitless opportunities.
Explore the world. Don’t limit yourself to your hometown or to the city you got your first job. __17__ It doesn’t have to be just one town or one apartment complex. Backpackin g may not be for everyone, but it’s not the only way you can see the world. Travelling doesn’t just have to be going overseas but also dropping by many states. Culture exists not just in a country but even in small communities.
Acquire new life skills. May be it’s time that you finally learn how to fix a broken tap or even fix the faulty light in your bathroom. You can finally cross out your bucket list items（许愿清单）that have been there forever. Learn how to drive a car or ride a bike. There are definitely thi ngs you don’t know how to do, and you have a lifetime ahead of you to learn. __18__
Be cultured. Watch as many movies and read as many books as possible. And it doesn’t mean that you only watch the ones with high ratings from critics. Books and movies are the fruits of the writers’ or the makers’ life experiences and understanding of their surroundings. Movies and books are a good look into how people interpret the world.
__19__ For some individuals, to grow older means to keep your circle of friends down to a few, but that shouldn’t stop you from meeting new people. Widen your circle by allowing people into your life and letting them get to know you. Widening your circle to people from all walks of life gives you a bigger and better side of the world.
Do many first's. When was the last time you did something for the first time? __20__ It can be as simple as watching a movie alone or as big as trying bungee jumping. Doing something for the first time doesn’t need to have a life-changing effect. It can be a simple realization that apparently, going to a film screening by yourself isn’t so bad.
So, there are so much more to learn, especially now that we’re virtually connected to everyone in the world. As a student of life, it’s really up to you to use all your resources and make it into something enriching.
A. Widen your circle.
B. Entertain yourself.
C. If you can’t think of the answer, maybe you need to go out and try something new.
D. Go beyond the place you consider home, because home can be many places.
E. You don’t always need a deep realization for everything you do.
F. Lessons are not limited to our academic studies.
G. It’s never too late to start learning something new.

VI.参考范文：
In recent years, many parents choose to accompany their children in studying, which has arouse a wide concern.
These parents are willing to leave their hometown, even quit their
jobs to follow their children into the campus. Most of them rent an apartment nearby so as to take good care of their children. Parents consider it necessary to offer a better living condition to the kids. Meanwhile, it can allow them to keep track of the kids’academic performance.
Nevertheless, what they’ve ignored is that it will get their kids into the habit of being dependent. Thus, they will never develop the ability of self-control in the future.
Trust leads to independence. So it seems to me that parents should create room for children’s growth and study, in order to ensure their overall development.
薄雾浓云愁永昼，瑞脑消金兽。

佳节又重阳，玉枕纱厨，半夜凉初透。

东篱把酒黄昏后，有暗香盈袖。

莫道不消魂，帘卷西风，人比黄花瘦。
