I woke up late and had breakfast in a hurry.I had never been late and didn’t want my boss to be unsatisfied.
However, it seemed that day wasn’t a lucky one for me from the very second I left my f lat. The moment I wanted to rush downstairs one of my stiletto heels（细高跟）broke. I had to return to change my red shoes. I also had to change my purse and other little things that I had tried to match with the shoes. I was sure I would be late for work.
On my way to work I had to wait for over half an hour because of an accident. I had no choice but to wait. I phoned my boss and he told me that it was no problem, but he needed me for the meeting with the Japanese clients（客户）that morning.
Finally, I arrived at the office one hour later.I had to keep calm and be fresh for the meeting to make the clients sure that our plan was the best for their future commercial（商业的）project. However, I left the plan I had made the night before at home and was going to present（介绍）it to the clients. I was about to get angry when I realized that I had a draft（草稿）of it in my office.
At last, the presentation came to an end and it turned out to be a success. But I have to say
that I had a terrible day, full of incidents.

The other day I heard a few local musicians talking: "I hate all the pianos in this town and I hate that rubbish they play on the radio.They cannot even understand rhythm（韵律）.""Nobody wants to pay musicians anything.I’m sick of all the people who want you to play without paying you."...
One younger musician said, "There are a couple of clubs who want me to play for a few nights a month, and I’m trying to find other places to play.I’m also planning to join in se veral summer festivals this year."
I really liked what the younger musician said so I made friends with him. Attitudes are important.Whether they’re positive or negative（消极的）, they’re all rubbing off on you. If you’re around people who are always complaining or blaming（责备）others, it is possible that you will start doing the same as well.If you spend lots of time with people who don’t support your dreams, it is time to take a look at the people you call "friends".
There is an easy exercise you can try. Make a list of the people who you often stay with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard for yourself and don’t become frie nds with people who fall below that standard.The choice is always yours to make. Of course, this exercise is entirely different from making friends only for the good of oneself.We really should try to help and spend time with those who are working towards a goal or dream.

A．musicians’ living conditions are not good
B．people in that town have poor taste in music
C．different people have different attitudes

C．He has more things to do than the others.

64．By doing the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 4, you can ________.
A．make the right kind of friends
B．improve your ability to make friends
C．develop a better relationship with your friends
D．make some new friends with the same interests as you

Nearly 600,000 Americans lost their jobs this past month, pushing the nation’s unemployment rate（失业率）to 7.6 percent. But not all of those fired workers are sitting at home, reading the job advertisements and waiting for the phone to ring. Thousands of people are returning to school, making public colleges and universities among the few bright places in the disappointing US economy.
At a time when many Americans have had their work hours cut or have even lost their
jobs, Sherian Huddleston is working overtime.She works at Middle Tennessee State University（MTSU）where she oversees（监督）the enrollment（注册）of new students. The university’s population grew by 800 students this term —an increase of 4 percent over last spring’s enrollment.Huddleston says seeing the enrollment rise in a failing economy is not unexpected."When people are out of work," she points out, "they will ask ‘What else can I do?’ or ‘What other careers can I follow?’ They will often return to school if they have not completed a degree before."
Older returning students aren’t the only ones increasing the enrollment at MTSU. Huddleston says she’s also seeing an increase in student transfers（转移）. "Students who went out of state, or even within the state, to more expensive schools are transferring to public schools to make use of the lower cost of going to school here," she explains.
66．Which is the best title for the passage?
A．The Falling American Economy
B．College Enrollment up in a Down Economy
C．Colleges Have More Students Than Before
D．Going to College Is No Longer Difficult
67．According to the passage, many students return to school ________.
A．to make more money
B．to read job advertisements
C．to complete a degree
D．to ask their schoolmates for help
68．How many students enrolled in MTSU last spring based on the passage?
A．768.B．19,200.C．20,000.D．800.
69．Many students are transferring to public schools mainly because ________.
A．public schools provide better education
B．public schools offer better jobs to their students
C．they don’t want to be influenced by the falling economy
D．the cost of public schools is lower and they can save money
70．Which of the following is TRUE about Sherian Huddleston?

第二节、阅读表达（共10分）
阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。

（请注意问题后的字数要求）
［1］Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.
［2］Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded（包围）by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
［3］There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight.I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.
［4］There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days ________. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime（消遣）, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.
［5］The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.
76．What is the passage mainly about?（no more than 10 words）
________________________________________________________________________ 77．What advice did the author give overweight children?（no more than 10 words）________________________________________________________________________ 78．Fill in the blank in the passage with proper words or phrases.（no more than 10 words）________________________________________________________________________ 79．In your opinion, which measure is the most effective one that can prevent children from being overweight ? Why?（no more than 30 words）
________________________________________________________________________ 80．What do es the underlined word “them”（Paragraph 5）probably refer to?（no more than 3 words）

The standard of a good friend should not only be common interest, but also the following aspects. First of all, it’s important to have a healthy body and a kind spirit. Besides, as an old saying goes “A friend in need is a friend indeed.”, ture friends will encourage us in the face of difficulties and danger and help us to go through it.
