Even though it was only October, my students were already talking about Christmas plans. With each passing day everyone became more 36 , waiting for the final school bell. Upon its 37 , everyone would run for their coats and go home except David.
David was a small boy in ragged （破旧的）clothes. I had often 38 what kind

so 39 for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots or gloves. But something made David 40 . I can still remember he was always 41 a smile and willing to help. He always 42 after school to straighten chairs and sweep the floor. We never

Weeks passed and the 45 over the coming Christmas grew into restlessness（骚

50 it to me, he said anxiously, “Open it.” I took it over from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped it. I lifted the lid and to my 51 saw nothing. I looked at David’s smiling face and back into the box and said, “The box is nice, David, but it’s 52 .”
“Oh no, it isn’t,” said David, “It’s full of love. My mum told me before she died that love is something you can’t see or touch unless you know it’s there.”
Tears filled my eyes 53 I looked at the proud dirty face that I had 54 paid attention to. I never forget the meaning 55 the little empty box set on my desk. After that Christmas, David and I became good friends.

A
An old woman had two large pots(罐), one on each end
of a pole (扁担). She carried the pole with the pots
across her neck.
One of the pots had a crack (裂缝) in it while the
other pot was perfect and always delivered(递送) a full
pot of water. At the end of the long walk from the well
to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half-full.
For two years this happened daily, with the woman bringing home only one and
a half pots of water. Of course, the perfect pot was proud. But the poor cracked
pot was ashamed of its own imperfection.
One day, the cracked pot spoke to the woman by the well: “I am ashamed of myself because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house.”
The old woman smiled: “Did you notice that there are flowers on your side of the path, but not on the other pot’s side? That’s because I have always known about your crack, so I planted flower seeds on your side of the path. And every day while we walk back, you water them.”
“For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate (装饰) the table. Without you being just the way you are, I would not have this be auty.”
Each of us has our own cracks. But it’s these cracks that make our lives together so interesting and meaningful.
56. How did the cracked pot feel about itself at first?
A. Proud.
B. Happy.
C. Excited.
D. Ashamed.
57. Where were the flowers growing?
A. On both sides of the path.
B. In the woman’s house.
C. On the perfect pot’s side.
D. On the cracked pot’s side.
58. Which is the correct order of the following events?
① The woman picked the flowers and decorated the table.
② The woman told the truth to the cracked pot.
③ The cracked pot talked to the woman about its crack.
④ The woman found a crack on one pot.
⑤ The woman planted some flower seeds.
A. ④⑤①③②
B. ⑤④③②①
C. ④③①②⑤
D. ④⑤③①②
59. What does the passage mainly want to tell us?
A. Never laugh at old women.
B. Try your best to be perfect in life.
C. Imperfection makes life meaningful.
D. Don’t use a cracked pot to carry water.
B
Driving to a friend's house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s rooftops. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it was that most city people, myself included, usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.
My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.
I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest-house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires(篝火) outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply.
Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fibre-glass. We have televisions, cell phones, pagers, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers.
Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought: before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touch the moon.
60. The best title for the passage would be______.
A. Touched by the moon
B. The pleasures of modern life
C. A bottomless well of silence
D. Break away from modern life
61. The writer felt sorry for himself because________.
A. there was too much pollution
B. he seldom enjoyed the fullest moon outsides
C. he didn’t adapt to modern inventions
D. there were too many accidents on the road
62. What impressed the writer most in the mountainous jungle of northern India?
A. No modern equipment
B. Complete silence.
C. The nice moonlight
D. The high mountains
63. Modern things (Paragraph 4) are mentioned mainly to______.
A. show that the writer likes city life very much
B. tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life
C. explain that people have fewer chances to enjoy nature
D. show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them
C

You're sitting on the train home and the person opposite you yawns(打哈欠). Suddenly, you're yawning with him, though you're not tired.
This phenomenon confused scientists for years until a recent study found that people tend to sympathize with fellow humans. Supporting this claim was the discovery that those children who were unable to form normal emotional ties with others did not experience contagions(有感染力的) yawning, which showed that humans communicate regularly without words.
Hogo Critchley, a neuroscientist, has conducted an experiment recently, which will prove that happiness and sadness can spread like the common cold. According to Critchley, our mind and body are in constant exchange about how we're feeling. “Emotions are close ly linked with states of internal(内部的)responses, ”he explained. “There are also more visible changes in our gesture and facial expressions. When we're in a group, these signals can spread to another person. For example, there’s the obvious tendency to smile when smiled at and there are less obvious changes that reflect emotions of surprise, anger or sadness such as a change in our heart rate and blood pressure. ”
Hugo Critchley further explained, “Our bodies synchronize and when we like the other person, we even copy his behivour. Next time you chat with a friend, take note of how you’re sitting----it's pretty likely that you will be the same. Scientists believ e it’s our way of telling each other that we’re partners. Through body language, humans give each other very subtle (微妙的) but clear signals that show emotions. ”
So, what lessons can we learn from this? “Spend time with happy people—otherwise your health c ould suffer, ” said Critchley. “When we’re sad, our body goes into fight or flight mode. But when we’re happy, our body works nor mally and we feel relaxed and positive. So we look bright, our skin glows, we feel healthy and it affects everyone around us. ”
67. According to Hogo Critchley, _________.
A. emotions are as visible as facial expressions
B. we yawn more frequently when we have a cold
C. emotions are connected with states of internal responses
D. the change of blood pressure is not linked with the change of emotions
68. The underlined word “synchronize” in paragra p h 4 means “_________”.
A. move slowly
B. change rapidly
C. relax temporarily
D. respond accordingly
69. From the passage we can learn ______.
A. sadness is as contagious as happiness
B. anger is less contagious than friendliness
C. surprise is more contagious than smile
D. surprise is the most contagious among emotions
70. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. Emotions have delicate influence on fellow humans.
B. Children like copying the actions of the fellow humans.
C. Scientists are still confused about contagious yawning.
D. People tend to communicate more with body language.
第II卷（非选择题，共25分）
第四部分：写作（共三节，满分25分）
第一节：任务型读写（共小10题;每小题1分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

注意:每个空格只填一个单
词。

Real policemen hardly recognize any similarity between their lives and what they see on TV.
The first difference is that a policeman’s real life revolved round (围绕；
以…为目的) criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as
a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the
dark and rain, running down a street after someone he wants to talk to.
Little of his time is spent in chatting. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid crimes.
Most television crime drama is about finding the cr iminal: as soon as he’s arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminal is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks, little effort is spent on searching.
Having made an arrest, a detective (侦探) really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do that he often has to gather a lot of different evidence.
A third big difference between the drama detective and the real one is the
unpleasant pressures: first, as members of a police force, they always have to behave absolutely in accordance with (依照) the law. Secondly, as expensive public servants, they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways.
If the detective has to deceive (欺骗) the world, the world often deceives him.
Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. And this separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the world is deepened by the simple-minded — as he see it — of citizens, social workers, doctors, law-makers, and judges, who, instead of eliminating（消除） crime, punish the criminals less severely in the hope that this will make them reform. The result, detective feel, is that nine-tenths of their work is re-catching people who should have stayed behind bars. This makes them rather cynical (愤世嫉俗的).
Police in 71.________ world Police on TV
Knowledge of 72.___ law He has to know as much as a
professional lawyer and
73_____ it to their daily
work.
There is no 74.________ for
them to know about it.
Different ways time is spent He 75.________ most of his
working life to collecting
and providing evidence
needed to 76.______ his case
in court.
Time is spent finding
criminals. Once the criminal
is found, the story is

Different pressures Law and the public put much
78_______ on detectives and
policemen.
They got no pressure from the
public.

toward punishment of the
criminals.
No contact 80______ the
public.

第三节：书面表达（共20分）
Dear Headmaster,
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we’ve had on whether the school
should organize a spring outing for the students.
Opinions on the question are divided as follows: 70％ of the students think that
the school should organize the spring outing. They believe that the spring outing
can make them enjoy the beautiful scenery of nature, which can broaden our vision
and fill us with more knowledge. They also say that the air in the open fields is
fresher. What’s more, fresh air does a lot of good to our health.
On the other hand, the rest don’t like the idea of going out for a spring outing.
In their opinion, time is very precious, so they have to grasp every minute to work
hard at their lessons. Traveling costs much money. In that case, it will add to their
fa milies’ burden. Above all, no one can be sure of the safety of every student.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours truly
Li Hua

on Monday and an 80% chance of rain on Tuesday. It’s going to rain all day Wednesday and Thursday. ⑦But there’s a good chance of nice weather starting Friday through the weekend.

M: Where shall we visit today?
W: First, we shall visit an ancient king’s palace, and then tour a beautiful garden. M: I would also like to take a tour of the city and appreciate the styles of the constructions.
W: Time permitting, we shall visit the downtown districts along the way. There are
a lot of old buildings in the street.
M: What’s the city famous for?
W: Its long history. There are many known historical sites around here. Many unearthed historical objects are displayed in the city museum. It’s really worth visiting. M: How wonderful! I can’t wait.

W: Jack, just look at this amazing painting.
M: It is amazing, but what is it exactly?
W: It’s a Picasso! It does look kind of strange, I must admit.
M: Yes, strange but beautiful. What’s it called?
W: Let me see… this one is Les Demoise de Avignon, painted in 1907.
M: 1907? That’s over one hundred years ago, but his work looks so modern!
W: Well, he has born in 1881. And he died when he was 92, so he had a long life. M: I heard that he had many girlfriends, who he often painted and had many children. W: Yes, that’s true. But I think he only married twice. His true love was a lady called Jacqueline, who he married in 1961.。
