（共20小题；每小题2分，共40分）AWe were standing at the top of a church tower. My father had brought me to this spot in a small town not far from our home in Rome. I wondered why.“Look down，Elsa,” Father said．I gathered all my courage and looked down. I saw the square in the center of the village．And I saw the crisscross (十字形) of twisting, turning streets leading to the square．“See，my dear,” Father said gently. “There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you can’ t get to the place where you want to go by one road, try another.”Now I understood why l was there. Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the awful lunches that were served at school. But she refused because she could not believe the lunches were as bad as I said.When I turned to Father for help, he would not interfere (干涉). Instead, he brought me to this high tower to give me a lesson. By the time we reached home, I had a plan.At school the next day, I secretly poured my lunch soup into a bottle and brought it home. Then I asked our cook to serve it to Mother at dinner. The plan worked perfectly. She swallowed one spoonful and sputtered, “The cook must have gone mad!” Quickly I told what I had done, and Mother stated firmly that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day!In the years that followed I often remembered the lesson Father taught me. I began to work as a fashion designer two years ago. 1 was busy getting ready to show my winter fashions. But just l3 days before the presentation the sewing girls all stopped working. I was as hopeless as my models．”We’ ll never make it．”One of them cried．Accept the failure? Or use wisdom to find another road to my goal? Then a great idea flashed through my mind — why not show the clothes unfinished?And, exactly l3 days later, our showing turned out to be so unusual that it was a great success. Our different showing caught the attention of the public, and orders for the clothes poured in．31．The author’s father took her to the top of a church tower to.A．help her forget some unpleasant thingsB．find out how many ways lead to the squareC．enjoy the beautiful scenery of the whole townD．inspire her to find out another way to solve her problem32．From the passage, we know .A．the author’ s father was a travel enthusiastB．the author is grateful to her father for his wise wordsC．the author’ s mother was a member of the school board．D．the author expected for a show with the clothes unfinished for long33．The author achieved a great success in the fashion show by .A．thinking outside the boxB．1eaving things to pure luckC．asking her father for adviceD．getting all the sewing girls back34．The best title of the passage is .A．My Wise FatherB．Inspiration From the ChurchC．Precious Experiences in My LifeD．More Than One Way to the SquareBWhen you’re having a hard time with your homework or when you’re preparing for your term paper, these student-focused websites can help you with just about anything you need. The key to getting the most out of these online resources is to know how they can best be used to your advantage.FacebookAlthough Facebook can be one of your biggest time-wasters and distractions when you are supposed to be getting work done, it can also be one of your most valuable resources.

Which teacher gives out the hardest problem sets? How much homework will that history professor give you every week? At , students all over the country rate their professors on quality, helpfulness, and how hard their classes are.WikipediaWhile Wikipedia isn’t aimed specifically at students, it is difficult to think of another website that does more to reduce the pain of paper writing and researching.

SparkNotes.D. .CThe case for college has been accepted without question for more than a generation. All high school graduates ought to go, because college will help them earn more money, become “better” people, and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone. And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending, those who don’t fit the pattern are becoming more and more, and more obvious. College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis; college students get in the way of each other’s experiments and write false letters of recommendation（推荐）in the competition for admission to graduate school. Others find no interest in their studies, and drop out—often encouraged by college administrators（教导主任）.Some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves—they are spoiled and they are expecting too much. But that is a condemnation（谴责）of the students as a whole, and does not explain all campus unhappiness. Others blame the state of the world, and they are partly right. We’ve been told that young people have to go to college because our economy cannot take in an army of untrained eighteen-year-olds. But disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer take in an army of trained twenty-two-year-olds, either.Some adventuresome educators and campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best, the proper, the only place for every young person after the completion of high school. We may have been looking at all those surveys (调查) upside down, it seems, and thinking of the rosy glow of our own remembered college experiences. Perhaps college does not make people intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, or quick to learn things—maybe it is just the other way round, and intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, quick-learning people are only the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place. And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not. This is heresy（异端邪说）to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good, more has to be much better. But opposite evidence is beginning to mount up.39．According to the passage, the author believes that______.A. people used to question the value of college educationB. people used to have full confidence in higher educationC. all high school graduates went to collegeD. very few high school graduates chose to go to college40．In the 2nd paragraph, "those who don't fit the pattern" refers to______.A. high school graduates who aren't suitable for college educationB. college graduates who are selling shoes and driving taxisC. college students who aren't any better for their higher educationD. high school graduates who failed to be admitted to college41．According to the passage the problems of college education partly arise from the fact that______.A. society cannot provide enough jobs for properly trained college graduatesB. high school graduates do not fit the pattern of college educationC. too many students have to earn their own livingD. college administrators encourage students to drop out42．In this passage the author argues that______.A. more and more evidence shows college education may not be the best thing for high schoolgraduatesB. college education is not enough if one wants to be successfulC. college education benefits only the intelligent, ambitious, and quick-learning peopleD. intelligent people may learn quicker if they don't go to collegeDHave you ever seen a real night sky that looks like Van Gogh's Starry Night? I hope not! So, why would an artist paint the sky this way? Perhaps I can answer that with another question. When you're happy, why do you sing instead of speaking? Or when you're in love, why do you speak of roses and honey? When we do these things, we, too are artists. We're using something that goes beyond a mere scientific description in order to communicate our feelings more powerfully than straightforward words can. So consider for a moment that Van Gogh might not have been hallucinating on the night he painted this. Maybe he felt something so powerful that he had to go beyond the familiar to express it.I hope I'm reminding you of something you already know as I describe the experience of being outside at night under a crystal clear sky that makes everything seem clean and refreshing. So you look up. And suddenly you see the sky that you've seldom seen before. It's not just the same old dark night sky tonight. Instead, the blackness is a deep, rich blue that is more bottomless than any ocean. The stars are not spots of light but brilliant, magical diamonds that dance like tiny angels. In just this special moment, the sky is somehow alive, and it seems to speak to you silently about the meaning of infinity.Now look at the painting again. Can you see something of what makes this such a famous and well-loved image? But there's more here than that. Van Gogh painted this while he was quite struck down by a mental disease. It is natural to imagine that he frequently battled the fear that he would never escape his prison to true freedom. It is natural for us to imagine this because each of us has faced our own personal prison, whether it be disease, the loss of a loved one, serious financial problems ... In such moments it is tempting to give up to despair and collapse in hopelessness.Looking at this painting, I imagine Van Gogh in just such a moment of despair, when he is struck by the memory of one of those amazing night skies. He recalls the sense that he is not alone, that there is a living, infinite world with rich colourful creatures and scenes all around.And so the sky flows across the canvas full of vitality and power. The stars don't just sparkle; they explode. Looking closer, we notice that the earth itself seems to respond to the movement in the sky, forming its own living waves in the mountain and rolling trees. In the sleepy village, the windows of the houses glow with the same light that brightens the universe. The giant trees at the left seem to capture the joy by stretching upwards toward the sky.What a tremendous message of hope there is in this masterpiece! Even if our troubles persist, the world around us assures us that life is worth living. That's what the angels sing about. Doesn't it make you want to sing, too?43. Looking at the painting Starry Night, we can see all the following except _____.A. the singing angelsB. the giant treesC. the sleeping villageD. the sparkling stars44. Van Gogh does NOT describe a feeling of _______ through the Starry Night.A. happinessB. vitalityC. powerD. despair45. The underlined word "prison" in the 3rd paragraph probably means _______.A. trouble in one's lifeB. mental illnessC. control from the authorityD. a place where criminals are kept46. What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To explain how Van Gogh painted the Starry Night,B. To tell us how to appreciate the Starry Night.C. To prove Van Gogh was in a hallucinating state of mind while painting the picture.D. To show us the beauty of the sky on a Starry Night.EA survey said the average Asian dad spent one minute a day with his children．I was shocked.I mean, a whole minute? Every day? Get real. Once a week maybe. The fact is, many Asian males are terrible at kid—related things. In fact, I am one of them．Child—rearing (养育) doesn’t come naturally to guys. My mother knew the names of our teachers, best friends and crushes. My dad was only vaguely aware there were short people sharing the apartment. My mother bought healthy fresh food at the market every day. My dad would only go shopping when there was nothing in the fridge except a jar of capers and a bay leaf．Then he’ d buy beer.

My wife ignored me and did some sort of chanting phrase such as“Mummy kiss it better,”and cured l7 separate injuries in less than 15 seconds．Yes, mothers are incredible people, but they are not always right. Yet honesty forces me to record the fact that mothers only know best 99.99 percent of the time. Here are some famous slip-ups．The mother of Bill Gates:”If you’ re going to drop out of college and hang out with your nerdy friends, don’ t come running to me when you find yourself penniless.” The mother of Albert Einstein: “When you grow up, you’ ll find that sitting around thinking about the nature of time and space won’ t pay the grocery bills.” The mother of George W．Bush: “You’ll never be like your dad, who became President of the United States and started his own war.”47．The tone for the writer to write the passage is ．A．cruel B．humorous C．disapproving D．critical 48．In paragraph 2 the writer makes a comparison between mothers and fathers to prove that ．A．females love kids more than malesB．males are not good at child—rearingC．my dad is not interested in child-rearingD．child-rearing is difficult both for females and males49．What does the underlined word “slip-ups” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．stories B．shortcomings C．mistakes D．advantages 50．The last paragraph is mainly developed by ．A．providing different examplesB．following the order of spaceC．making comparisonsD．analyzing causes第二节根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项-- Good!
