AMother Teresa was born in Yugoslavia (南斯拉夫), on August 27th, 1910. She attended the government school near her home until she was 18. At that time, some doctors and nurses from Yugoslavia were working in India, and they often wrote to the school about their work. She decided to join them one day.When she finished school, she went first to Britain. Then a year later she went to India, where she began to train to be a teacher. After training, she was sent to Calcutta, where she taught geography at a school and soon after became headmasteress.However, although she loved teaching, in 1949, Mother Teresa left the school and went to work in the poor parts of Calcutta. Later she was trained to become a nurse in Patna, and then began her work helping the poor and comforting（安慰）the dying in the streets of the city. Slowly, others came to help her, and her work spread to other parts of India.Mother Teresa is now a well-known person. Many photos have been taken of as she travels the world to open new schools and hospitals in poor countries. In 1979, she was given the Nobel Peace Prize for the lifetime of love and service she has given to the poor.21. What first inspired Mother Teresa to work in India ?A Her visit to the poor parts of CalcuttaB Her visit to Britain after she left schoolC The medical workers' letters to her schoolD The work of the nurses in the city of Patna22. In which orders did Mother Teresa do the following things ?a. trained to be a nurseb. went to Indiac. helping the dyingd. studied to be a teachere. went to Britainf. worked as a headmasteressA. b. a. c. e. d. f.B. e. f. a. d. b. c.C. e. b. d. f. a. c.D.e. a. b. c. d.f.23. Mother Teresa gave up teaching because she wanted _______.A to look after the poorB to travel to the poor countriesC to build hospitals for the poorD to train nurses to care for the poor24. Mother Teresa is now famous because she has ________.A saved many poor people in IndiaB helped to bring about world peaceC helped to make India a more peaceful placeD taken care of many poor people in the worldBThe largest bird that cannot fly also happens to be the largest living bird in the world. This is the huge North African ostrich (鸵鸟). When the male is fully grown, he reaches a height of nearly eight feet and many weigh close to three hundred pounds. His wings are very small and the wing feathers are very soft, and therefore he does not fly.You have probably heard the old saying about “the foolish ostrich burying his head in the sand”. Well, the ostrich is not nearly as foolish as he is said to be. In the daytime, when the hen is sitting on the eggs, she does not want to be seen; instead of sticking her long neck up into the air, she bends (弯曲) her neck and head down. That way, she can best protect the eggs and herself.Because the ostrich cannot fly up into the air to escape from danger on the ground, he has to remain alert at all times. Luckily, he has very good eyesight and hearing, so he can stop danger in time to run away. The ostrich can run so fast that it almost seems as if he is flying.Sometimes, when a person has a small appetite (胃口), we say that he “eats like a bird”. Of course, that bird is not the ostrich! An ostrich will ea t anything under the sun. When an ostrich died in a zoo, scientists cut it open to see what he had eaten. Here are some of the things found in its stomach: three pieces of wood, partof a film roll, a French coin, four pennies, and so on.25. Ostriches bury their heads in the sand because they _____.A. are too lazy to do anythingB. can avoid being attackedC. can relax by doing soD. are very shy26. The underlined part “remain alert” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_____”.A. be sure about everythingB. be careful in flyingC. be full of energyD. be quick to act27. Which of the following enables ostriches to escape from danger in time?A. Their height and weight.B. Very good eyesight and hearing.C. The ability to fly up into the airD. A big appetiteCHow to Study Smarter, Not HarderHere are some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter, not harder:Recite As You StudyReciting—saying things out loud should first take place as you read through each paragraph or section. Test yourself. This will help you to understand as well as learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening. It will also help you to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding.Take Fuller NotesNotes should be in your own words, brief and clear. They should be tidy and easy to read. Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.Study the MiddleThe best time to review is soon after you’ve learned something. You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of the lesson, so make sure you focus on the middle when you review.Sleep On ItStudy before going to bed, unless you are very tired. It’s easier to remember material you’ve just learned after sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity, because your brain continues to think even after you’ve fallen asleep. Combine Memory and UnderstandingThere are two ways to remember: by memorizing and by understanding. Multiplication tables, telephone numbers, and math formulas are better learned by rote. Ideas are best learned by understanding.The more ways you have to think about an idea, the more meaning it will have; the more meaningful the learning, the better you can remember it. Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts, and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know. Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading. If you are not able to follow the thought, go back to the place where you first got confused and try again.28. You can notice your mistakes by _______.A. taking notesB. saying things out aloudC. studying the middleD. sleeping on it29. When taking notes, you should _______ to better help you with reading.A. write notes in your own wordsB. underline important notesC. take down every detailD. write as quickly as possible30. The writer advises you to _______ as it is easier for you to remember material.A. study after a period of activityB. do some exercise after studyingC. study before going to sleepD. study as soon as you get up31. Which of the following is NOT helpful for your understanding?A. Thinking about an idea in different ways.B. Relating ideas and concepts with what you already know.C. Going back to what first made you confused and start again.D. Reading from the beginning to the end without stop.DIt is a hot summer day，and you feel thirsty. A friend gives you a glass of cold lemonade．How do you feel when you see the glass? Will you describe your feeling as happiness or as pleasure? I believe you will say it is a feeling of pleasure．There is a connection between these two kinds of feelings，and sometimes one causes the other，but they are not the same．Pleasure is more dependent on the five senses while happiness is independent of them．When you are happy，little unpleasant events usually do not disturb you．When you are unhappy，you feel as if everything is against you．You may compensate for it by eating chocolate and sweets because this gives you pleasure；yet you stay unhappy．A person may smoke cigarettes because it gives him pleasure，yet，this does not make him happier，especially if he knows the fact that it is not good for his healthThe physical world is always in a changing state．At each moment a new thing is being created，changed，transformed and then destroyed．This is the normal state of things and no one can change it．If we stay still in a certain state，we are sure to experience unhappiness sooner or later．On the other hand，if we adjust to the environment，nothing can influence our moods．Then outer events have nothing to do with our inner joy of mind．The room of the mind was filled with worry or fear．If you are free of thinking about them, the room has been emptied，and then you will see what is happening and experience it. When your mind stays quiet，you will see that happiness comes from the inside．32．What does the underlined phrase “compensate for” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?A．to make a suitable payment for B．to let out your anger forC．to provide with a balancing effect for D．to solve the problems for33．According to the passage, in which of the following situations can you feel happy?A．A friend gives you a glass of cold lemonade when you feel thirsty．B．You eat chocolate and sweets when you feel as if everything is against you．C．Smoke cigarettes even though you know the fact that it is not good for your health．D．You are free from worry or fear when your mind stays quiet．34．We can learn from the passage that _________ ．A．happiness is more dependent on the five sensesB．pleasure sometimes arouses(引起) happinessC．you feel happy when nothing around you changes in a certain stateD．you feel unhappy because you have to adjust to the environment35．Which can be the best title for the passage?A．Pleasure Leads To Happiness B．Happiness Changes UsC．Happiness Is Within Us D．Stay A Quiet Mind第二节（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。
