Learning experiences happen to us throughout our lives. Not long ago, I had one that I would like to 16 .
I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the highway at 85 mph 17 we realized we were
18 . Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand new $20 bill. I was so 19 because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on 20 seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line. 21 I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I 22 I had not actually handed any money to the cashier. I had just 23 out, and nobody had noticed. I felt terrible.
My conscience（良心）opened its mouth and swallowed me in one big bite. I couldn’t 24 over it. I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and 25 for my stolen pizza. I was so upset that I 26 to give myself the pleasure of an ice cream in 27 that someone would say,“ Hey, Jeff, why don’t you use the change 28 the pizza instead of that nice, new $20 bill?” I was not so 29___ of my cash now.
For the next two years, whenever I was 30 the “pizza incident”, I would say to myself, “Don’t think about it....”
I have learned two things from this 31 aybe I was a fool for
32 to my conscience, and being too stupid to appreciate a 33 pizza. But the real lesson is that even if you get away from what you have done, your conscience will 34 up with you.
This reflects the saying, “A coward（懦夫）dies a thousand deaths;
a hero dies once.” I was a coward and have felt terrible about that incident at least a thousand times. If I had been a “35 ” and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only once, or maybe twice.

第三节：阅读理解（共两小节，满分40分）
第一小节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, you friends will help you; when you work hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的) door: when it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.
36. What kind of people can enjoy happiness according the passage?
A. Only those who have cars.
B. Only those who have their own happiness.
C. Only those who have big houses.
D. Only those who have a lot of money.
37. When you fall down in a PE class, both your teacher and your classmates will _______.
A. laugh at you
B. play jokes on you
C. quarrel with you
D. help you up
38. What will your friends say to you when you make great progress?
A. Oh, so do I.
B. Congratulations!
C. Good luck!
D. It's just so-so.
39. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. People who have cars would never like to walk in the open air.
B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes.
C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.
D. Happiness is always around you though difficulties come towards
you.
B
I grew up in a small town. My father raised chickens and ran a construction company. I was only 10 years old when my dad gave me the responsibility of feeding the chickens and cleaning up the coop. He believed it was important for me to have those jobs to learn responsibility. Then, when I was 22, I found a job in Natchbill at a country music club called the Natchbill Palace. I washed dishes and cooked from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm and then went on to sing until 2:00 in the morning. It wasn’t long before I became known as a singing cook.
I had been rejected so many times by record companies that it was hard not to be discouraged. One night, a woman executive (主管) from a company named Warner Brothers Records came to hear me sing. When the show was over, we sat down and talked, and after she left, I said to myself it was one more rejection. A few weeks later, my manager received a phone call —Warner Brothers Records wanted to sign a record deal with me. Soon after, I released my first record in June 1986. It sold over 2 million copies.
My best efforts have gone into every job I’ve ever held.It was the sense of responsibility that made me feel like a man. Knowing that I had done my best filled me with pride. I still feel that way today, even though I have become a well-known singer.
40. The main purpose of the writer’s dad by letting him feed the
chickens and clean up the coop was ____________.
A. to let him learn responsibility
B. to let him earn his own living
C. to let him help with the company
D. to let him spend his spare time
(注意：从41题开始，把选项答在答题纸上)
41. Why was the writer once known as a singing cook?
A. Because he was a cook at a country music club.
B. Because he sang for guests while he worked as a cook.
C. Because he often sang while cooking.
D. Because he liked singing better than cooking.
42. ________ first recognized his talents and helped to make his career successful.
A. Warner’s brother
B. His manager
C. His father
D. A woman executive
43. What made the writer proud of himself?
A. His ability to live independently.
B. His sense of responsibility in whatever he did.
C. His courage in the face of rejections.
D. His hard work in his early years.
C
Down-to-earth means being honest, open, and easy to deal with. It is a pleasure to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to. He or she accepts others as equals. A down-to-earth person may be an important member of society, of course, but they do not let their importance go to their heads, and they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important. Someone who is filled with self-importance and pride, often without cause, is said to have his nose in the air. There is no way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth.
Americans use another expression that is similar in some way to down-to-earth. The expression is both feet on the ground. Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality. He has what is called common sense. He may have dreams but he does not allow them to block his knowledge of what is real. The opposite kind of person is one who has his head in the clouds. A man with his head in the clouds is a dreamer whose mind is not in the world. Sometimes such a dreamer can be brought back to reality; sharp words from the teacher,
for example, can usually get a daydreaming student to put both feet back on the ground.
The person who is down-to-earth usually has both feet on the ground. But the opposite is not always true. Someone with both feet on the ground may not be as open and easy to deal with as someone who is down-to-earth. When we have both our feet firmly on the ground, we are realistic and we act honestly and openly toward others, and our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.
44. If a person has his nose in the air, he ____.
A. is down to the earth
B. is easy to deal with
C. always thinks he is more important than others
D. is confident
45. If a person has both feet on the ground, he ____.
A. is in touch with reality, and doesn’t have any dream s
B. has some dreams but he is realistic
C. is honest, open and easy to deal with
D. is honest, open but hard to deal with
46. From the second paragraph, we know that sharp words from a
teacher can usually ________.
A. help a student get down to the earth
B. wake a student up
C. help a daydreaming student come down to the ground
D. help a daydreaming student to become more realistic
47. The underlined sentence “But the opposite is not always true.” most
probably means that ______.
A. the person who has his nose in the air is not true
B. a man with his head in the clouds is often not intelligent
C. the opposite direction is always wrong
D. a person who has both feet on the ground may not be
down-to-earth
D
Most Americans believe that someone isn’t grown-up until the age of 26 and they should complete their education, have a full-time job, have a family to support and be financially independent. They also believe that becoming a real grown-up is a process which begins at about the age of 20 and takes about five years, according to the report from the University of Chicago’s National Opinion Research Center.
The findings are based on a representative sample of 1,398 people over the age of 18 who were surveyed in person. The survey found that
people expect the transitions to grown-up status to be completed at the following ages: age 20.9 self-supporting; age 21.1 no longer living with parents; age 21.2 having a full-time job; age 22.3 education completed; age 24.5 being able to support a family financially; age 25.7 getting married; and age 26.2 having a child.
“There is a large degree of agreement across social groups on the relative importance of the seven transitions,” said Tom Smith, director of the survey. The only obvious pattern of differences is on views about supporting a family, having children and getting married. Older adults consider these more important than younger adults do. This probably shows in large part a change in values across generations away from traditional family values. The most valued step toward reaching adulthood, the survey found, is completing education, followed by full-time employment, supporting a family, financial independence, living independently, and marriage.
48. According to the first paragraph, someone is a grown-up when he
_______.
A. has found a full-time job
B. has finished his study in university
C. can make money and support himself after completing his
education
D. can support a family and be financially independent after
graduation
49. A young man of 24 may be busy ________.
A. finding a job
B. finding a girl friend
C. making money
D. preparing for his wedding
50. The underlined word “status”in the second paragraph probably
means “________”.
A. position
B. rank
C. level
D. situation

Attending schools abroad has many advantages. Firstly, by looking at our own country from outside, we can widen our vision and broaden our minds. Secondly, we can visit famous scenic spots and make friends with the local people. Thirdly, we can use the foreign language in our daily life so that our ability in the second language may be improved quickly.
However, there are also some disadvantages in attending a foreign school.The cost of living is much higher than that in our country, so most students have to find part-time jobs to support themselves. Faced with these difficulties, many students find themselves unable to pay full attention to their studies and learn little.
