AThe day my husband fell to his death，it started to snow，just like any November day．His body, when I found it，was lightly covered with snow．It snowed almost every day for the next four months，while I sat on the couch and watched it pile up．One morning，I shuffled downstairs and was surprised to see a snow remover clearing my driveway and the bent back of a woman shoveling(铲)my walk．I dropped to my knees and crawled through the living room. And back up stairs so those good people would not see me. I was embarrassed．My first thought was，how would I ever repay them? I didn’t have the strength to brush my hair, let alone shovel someone’s walk．Bef ore John’s death，I took pride in the fact that I rarely asked for help or favors，I defined myself by my competence and independence．So who was I if I was no longer capable and busy? How could I respect myself if all I did was sit on the couch every day and watch the snowfall?Learning how to receive the love and support that came my way wasn't easy. Friends cooked for me and I cried because I couldn't even help them set the table. “I'mnot usually this lazy, ”I wept．Finally，my friend Kathy sat down with me and said, "Mary，cooking for you is not a burden. I love you and I want to do it. It makes me feel good to be able to do something for you.”Over and over，I heard similar emotions from the people who supported me during those dark days．One very wise man tol d me, “You are not doing nothing. Being fully open to your sorrow may be the hardest work you will ever do.”I am not the person I once was, but in many ways I have changed for the better. My heart is now filled with thanks for people around me．I have been surprised to learn that there is incredible freedom that comes from facing one’s worst fear and walking away whole. I believe there is strength, for sure, in accepting a dark period of our life.21. Which of the following is True according to the passage?A. The writer’s friend was unwilling to cook for her．B. The writer had been busy with her life before．C. The writer recovered from her sorrow quickly with his friend’s help．D. The day her husband died，it was snowing heavily．22. We can describe the writer before her husband diedas the following EXCEPT __．A. hard-workingB. independentC. smartD. capable23．The underlined word“shuffled”in Paragraph 1 probably means ___________．A. stepped steadilyB. walked slowlyC. ran swiftlyD. fell sadly 24．We can infer from the passage that ____________.A. the writer found her husband immediately he felloff the roofB. the writer became strong-willed immediately after John's deathC. the people around the writer were friendly and supported herD. before John’s death, the writer never asked othersfor helpBAs children begin to head back to school, there are several things that you can do to make sure that yourchild stays healthy and performs at their peak potential during the school year.1. Make sure your child is up to date on their immunizations(免疫). The summer is a good time to schedule visits to the doctor’s as your child is not in school, and the visit won’t require that your child miss school days.2. Encourage proper nutrition. America faces childhood obesity(肥胖). This means that the percentage of overweight children is increasing each year, and this will place your child at risk of developing a variety of diseases when they are middle age or even young adults. You can start helping your child to become healthier by offering fruits and vegetables at home instead of calorie heavy potato chips and candy.3. Get your child involved in sports activities. Activities in high school such as track and cross-country are important for socialization for your child, as well as helping to improve their health. You can get your child interested in wholesome activities by discussing with them how you enjoyed similar activities in high school.4. Have the birds and the bees conversation with your child. Many children become sexually active in junior school and senior high school, and the sooner you discuss sex with your child the sooner they will be prepared. Tell your child that there is always the possibility of infecting a sexual disease when two people have sex; and discuss with your child the use of condoms. The sooner you start having this embarrassing situation the better.5. Know your child’s friends. You can do this by inviting your child to bring their friends over to your house for a pizza night, or by chatting with them when they stop by your house. If you find your child’s friend has a bad reputation, then you could consider introducing your child to a different network of people, such as through the girl/boy scouts. Forbidding your child from seeing a certain person may only lead them to rebel and become closer to that person.6. Discuss with your child the seriousness of drug use and abuse. Your child may not realize that using drugs can have serious consequences. Your child may get the false impression that drug use is his right. Explain to a child that saying no to drugs is their right, and thatanybody offering them drugs is not their friend.7. Help your child to avoid a life long smoking addiction by discussing with them the consequences of smoking. The sad fact is that most smokers became addicted when they were in their teenage years, and are unable to quit for long periods of time and often die many years earlier due to their smoking habit which increases the risk of lung cancer, heart disease, and a variety of medical conditions. Even if you are a smoker yourself, you can discuss with your child about how damaging smoking can be on a person’s health.8. Impress upon your child the importance of traffic rules. Tell them that it is OK to wear a seat belt in anyone’s car, because it may save their life one day. If your child rides a bicycle or a skateboard, then discuss with them the importance of always wearing a helmet. As you child becomes qualified for driver’s permit, you should discuss with them the importance of prevention from drinking and driving.9. Be cautious about signs of depression in childhood.A surprisingly large number of children may become depressed, and a small number of teenagers and childrencommit suicide(自杀) each year. Realize that any signs of unusual depressed mood, angry outbursts, suicidal comments, feelings of hopelessness, and loss of enjoyment of activities with friends may be signs of depression.25. What topic is NOT discussed in this passage?A. TrafficB. SmokingC. DepressionD. Study26. The first three tips focus on children’s .A. medical careB. nutritious foodC. physical healthD. sports activities27. “Have the birds and the bees conversation with yourchild” means “” .A. have a humorous talk to children about sexB. tell children stories about the animal worldC. give a formal expert education to childrenD. deliver lectures to children on sex diseases28. This passage is meant for parents to .A. teach their children to behave wellB. prepare their children for a new termC. educate their children after schoolD. train their children for special abilityCWhen you put down your pens at the end of the college entrance exam, 12 hard years of study will have come to an end. Forget your studies for a while. It's time to enjoy yourselves!There are many ways to celebrate this special month of graduation. You can have photos taken with your classmates and teachers, or dine out together and exchange gifts.High school students in Western countries such as the United States and Canada usually have a prom to mark their graduation. It’s to mark the time kids turn into young men and women. After the prom, teenagers either go to college or find a job. It means they are no longer as dependent on their parents as they were before. At the prom, boys usually dress in dinner jackets and bow ties, though many different types of formal clothes are worn. Traditionally, girls give boys matching boutonnieres (a small collection of flowers they pin to their jackets). Girls traditionally wear formal dresses, or dress to shock or be noticed, in shiny or brightly colored materials.Common prom activities include dining, dancing, the crowning (加冠) of a prom king and queen, and just talking to friends. In some cases, high school students collect funds for their class prom through the four years of their high school.High schools in or near large cities may rent ballrooms at expensive hotels or, to be unusual, on a pleasure cruise boat.But often costs are cut by simply using the school gym. Students make a lot of effort to decorate the gym to make the event special. The music played at the prom will be the most popular kinds, like rock and hip-hop. The students elect the Prom Queen. She is partnered with a Prom King who is elected similarly. These are great honors that the pair take very seriously. The two dance with each other to celebrate their election.Sometimes teachers and parents also go to the prom. But others like to go with friends, to whom they are soon going to be saying goodbye.If you like the idea of a prom, why don't you and your classmates organize one for your graduation? 29．Which of the following is an economical way to holdthe prom?A.

Teachers and parents attend it.31．Why do some students attend the prom with their friends?A. They will part with their friends in a short time.B. They don’t like to be accompanied by their parents.C. They don’t want to depend on their parents.D. They want to be elected by their friends as the Prom King or Queen.32. What is the writer’s purpose to write this passage?A. To tell an interesting experience of high school students.B. To tell how the western students spend the last daysof high school.C. To introduce several ways of western students’ killing time.D. To tell how western high school students usually celebrate graduation.DHere is some must-know information from a handbook on how people behave in doing business in some countries. In BrazilBrazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the person on the shoulder. People often greet each other (particularly women) with light cheek kisses. Schedules tend to be flexible, with business meetings sometimes starting later than planned. But to be safe, be on time. Meals can stretch for hours—there’s no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil. Lunches also can start in the mid to late afternoon. Brazilians are social, preferring face-to-face communication over mails or phone calls. In SingaporeSingaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small, polite bow. Business cards should be offered and received with two hands. Arriving late is considered disrespectful. So be on time. Efficiency(效率) is the goal, so meetings and dealings often are fast-paced. Singaporeans are direct in their discussions, even when the subject is about money. Rank is important and authority is respected. This determines both people interact in meetings. For example, people avoid disagreeing outright with someone with a higher rank.In the United Arab EmiratesIn the UAE, status is important, so the most senior or oldest should be greeted first with their titles. The handshake seems to be longer than elsewhere. So, do not pull away the handshake. Women should cover themselves when it comes to dress. Men also tend to be covered from neck to elbows(肘部) and down to the knees. People do not avoid entertaining in their homes, but they also hold business meals at restaurants. Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be avoided. When meetings are one-to-one, if your host offers you coffee,you should refuse. It might seem odd, but it is a cultural tradition. Coffee should only be accepted if it is always set out or presented.In SwitzerlandThe Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name. They also are respectful of private lives. You should be careful not to ask about personal topics. Punctuality (守时) is vital, something that comes from a deep respect for others’ time. Arrive at any meeting or event a few minutes early to be safe. They also have clear structure in their companies. Higher-ups make the final decisions, even if others might disagree. Neat, clean dress is expected. The Swiss follow formal table manners. They also keep their hands visible at the table and their elbows off the table. It is polite to finish the food on your plate.33. The passage is mainly about ________.A. communicationtypesB. the workplace atmosphereC. customs and social manners D. living conditions and standards34. Why do Singaporeans avoid arguing with their boss?A. They put efficiency in the first place.B. They dislike face-to-face communication.C. They want to finish meetings as quickly as possible.D. They are supposed to obey the person of a higher rank.35. In the UAE, when should you refuse the coffee if it is offered?A. When greetingseniors.B. When meeting the host alone.C. When attending apresentation. D.When dining with business partners.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
