My parents often noted during meals how everything on the table except the sugar and flour came from the land. Besides running the farm, Dad was also a carpenter.In the fall of 1970, he was working on a house when the ladder broke. His back wasTAL#NBSP fractured in two places. He stayed in the hospital for three weeks with his head and feet down, permitting his back to be straight correctly so the bones would combine.On Thanksgiving, Dad was still in the hospital. We always butchered hogs the day after the holiday, and that year my uncle showed up with a couple of cousins to help my three older brothers prepare our year's supply of pork. After Dad returned home, he was in a back brace and unable to work. I was too young to realize our family had no money coming in as Christmas approached.One night we heard a car coming up the long driveway. We kids were curious about who was visiting. Peggy Phelan was at the door, holding an envelope filled with money. She told my dad she had collected money in the community and was there to deliver it. He tried to protest but Peggy would have none of it. I can still hear her saying. "Archie, whenever someone's baler （打包机）is broken, you bale their hay. Someone passes away, Altha is cooking. It's our turn."That evening, this 6-year-old understood what being a good neighbor was, and that because her parents were good neighbors, their kindness would be returned.I learned later that my mom's sisters all "adopted" one of us kids to help with Christmas, and we received gift baskets from more than one organization.My parents were used to being the givers and not the receivers of such generosity. They had a bit of pride to swallow, but continued all of their lives to show us kids the value of kindness.(1) We know the writer's father was very.A. hard-workingB. unkindC. strictD. mean(2) The underlined word "fractured" in Paragraph 2 probably means.A. connectedB. brokenC. arrangedD. transformed(3) Why did the writer's uncle go to his house?A. To visit his sick father.B. To give them money.C. To spend holiday together.D. To help prepare for Christmas.(4) What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A. The father liked to bale the hay.B. Peggy Phelan was a delivery man.C. The parents were helpful to others.D. We were curious about Peggy Phelan.(5) Which of the following can match the passage?A. No pains, no gains.B. Great minds think alike.C. Misfortune may be an actual blessing.D. Good will be rewarded with good.19、【来源】 2018年天津高三二模部分区县（C篇）第46~50题12.5分Are you sick of going to bed late and waking up tired? Then grab your hiking boots and a tent. A new study suggests that a couple days of camping in the great outdoors can reset your circadian clock and help you get more sleep.The body clock, more commonly known as the body clock, is an internal system that tells our bodies when it's time to go to sleep and when it's time to wake up. Scientists track this clock by measuring the amount of melatonin （褪黑激素）circulating in a person's blood at any given time.In a healthy sleeper, melatonin levels rise a few hours before bedtime, stay high through the night, and then settle back down when it's time to wake up.In our modern society, however, most of us stay up many hours past sunset and would probably sleep in many hours after sunrise if we could. And the trouble is，your melatonin levels may still be high when your alarm clock goes off in the morning, which leads to TAL#NBSP grogginess. It may also have other health consequences as well, such as diabetes （糖尿病），overweight and heart disease.Professor Kenneth Wright of the University of Colorado in the US wanted to see if our body clocks can be reset by a short stay in nature. His team recruited 14 physically active volunteers in their 20s and 30s. Nine went on a weekend camping trip, while the other five stayed home.At the end of the weekend, the researchers reported that in just two days, the campers' body clocks had shifted so that their melatonin levels began to rise more than an hour earlier than they did before they left on the trip. By contrast, the body clocks of the group that stayed home shifted even later over the course of the weekend."This tells us we can reset our clocks fast, " Wright said.Therefore, if you want to change your sleep patterns you could try to increase your exposure to natural light during the day and decrease the amount of artificial light you see at night.And if that doesn't work, there's always camping.(1) The author wrote this article mainly to.A. explain why it is bad for our health not to sleep enoughB. inform us of a possible way to adjust the circadian clockC. analyze how the circadian clock influences our sleeping habitsD. explore how the circadian clock is connected with melatonin levels(2) The underlined word "grogginess" , in Paragraph 4 probably means.A. tirednessB. excitementC. refreshmentD. pressure(3) How does the author develop the passage?A.

But there is nothing wrong with "healthy discontent" . In fact, healthy discontent is what motivates us to improve ourselves and our circumstances. Without that feeling that life could be better, it's easier to stand still.I always have a certain level of discomfort. That discomfort drives me to work hard at my job. I don't just want to remain where I am. Professionally, I want to keep getting better. Likewise, I always have a certain amount of discontent about my home. That drives me to always try to improve it by making it look better.My feelings of discontent about my job and my home don't mean that I don't appreciate them. It's an incredible blessing to be able to work and be paid for one's efforts.Similarly, if you live in a safe place, with running water, heating, and air conditioning, you are incredible fortunate. These are not things to be taken for granted. However, we should be striving（力争）to improve.If you happen to be good at playing the piano, you should work to continually improve your skills. The same hold true for our personal development. If you have areas in your personality that need improvement, you should work on them, too.For instance, I can be very impatient. As a result, I work hard to try to conquer that flaw（缺点）by keeping my impatience to myself. When we feel discontent about ourselves, we have to be honest with ourselves.It's easy to make excuses for our bad behavior, but we need to face our discontent head on and say to ourselves. "I need to work on this. " This week, consider whether you have a healthy discontent in your life. Have you become so settled in your life that you don't see regular improvement?Do you have a character flaw that you wish you didn't have？Don't ignore these things. Instead, take steps to address your areas of discontent and keep improving your life every day.No matter how great we think things are going, there's always room for improvement.(1) What is stressed in Paragraph 1?A. The gratitude for what we have.B. The importance of healthy discontent.C. The lessons from society.D.

to freedom， one by one． The men， ranging from 19 to 63 years old， have been buried alive since a cave in the copper and gold mine they were working collapsed on August 5， 2010． It is the longest time anyone has ever survived being trapped underground．After the collapse， the men found an emergency shelter off one of the mine's tunnels． The temperature in the dark shelter was around 90 degreesFahrenheit． For more than two weeks， the miners' water came from the tanks on their work vehicles． They shared a supply of food that was meant to last for only 48 hours．The miners were totally isolated until rescue teams made contact with the men on August 22． They sent a note to the surface explaining theirsituation． Rescuers drilled small holes to reach the cave and sent down supply tubes containing food， water， clothes， medicine， fresh air and other supplies． They also received letters from their families， a television set and games．Additional collapses slowed down rescue efforts． Finally， a tunnel was built that could fit a 13-foot rescue capsule（救生舱），called the Pheonix． The escape hole measures 28 inches across， a tight fit for the twisting 20 minutes， 2，041-foot ride． The first miner reached the surface just after midnight on October，13． The rescue mission was faster than expected， and all 33 men had been brought to safety by late the same day．The miners were met by family members who were waiting at Camp Hope， a settlement of tents near the mine． Chile's president， Sebastian Pinera， cheered at the scene and hugged the miners． "We made a promise never to give up， and we kept it，" he said． After an immediate medical exam， the men were airlifted to the nearest hospital for 48 hours of observation．（1）How long were the rescued miners trapped in the mine？A． About 48 hours．B． About two weeks．C． One month and a half．D． More than two months．（2）Which of the following doesn't belong to the rescue work？A． The water from the tanks．B． Small holes drilled to reach the cave．C． A tunnel built to fix a rescue capsule．D． Letters， games and a TV from the surface．（3）What can we learn from the text？A．All miners reached the surface just after midnight on October 13．B．The loss of the mine collapse．C．The health condition of the trapped miners．D．The concern of Chile's president about the mine collapse．（4）According to the text， the rescued miners ．A．received medical examination in a hospital at firstB．could go home immediately they got out of the mineC．had to stay in a hospital for two days before going homeD．felt relieved to see their family members taken good care of（5）The best title for the text should be ．A． Disaster at the MineB． A Miracle at the MineC． Efforts of Great ChileansD． Miserable Life of Chilean Miners19．(★★★)CWhile learning the science lessons， I used to get a doubt-why ear， nose，tongue and eyes should be called as special senses？ The basic reason is that these are the channels through which we maintain contact with the surroundings． Though apparently it may feel like these are individual sensory organs， they do show some connectivity． Interestingly， our hearing is less sharp after we eat a heavy food． Isn't it good for a sound nap after a stomach-full meal？ That does not mean we go deaf after a meal， but the hearing pitch（强度）does change after a heavy meal．We usually give credit of the taste to our tongue， but do you know that unless saliva（唾液） dissolves something， our tongue cannot recognize the taste of the food eaten． Taste is nothing but the food chemicals dissolved in the saliva being sensed by the taste buds present on the tongue．[Try to dry off your tongue and mouth with a tissue paper and then taste something]．Women are much better smellers than men． They are born with thischaracteristic ability and can correctly pinpoint（准确说出）the exact fragrance of the sample． We all can store almost 50，000 different scents， which are strongly tied to the memories．Pupils（瞳孔） do not respond to light alone， but to the slightest bit ofnoise around too． Thus surgeons， watchmakers and those professionals who have to perform a much delicate job do prefer to have a sound-free environment． Even a small noise can dilate（扩大）their pupils，change the focus and blur（使模糊）their vision． If you do not wear glasses or contact lens due to having a 6/6 vision， you are just among the one third of the human population． It is now statistically proved that only one third of the population has perfect vision，rest all are either wearing glasses or are trying to read with a compromised vision．Each and every one of us has a particular or individualistic or characteristic smell， which is unique to us，except for the identical twins． This smell is very subtle（微妙的）yet can be sensed even by a newborn． It may be due to this scent that the newborn recognizes the presence of his parents around． Many of us can pinpoint the smell of our significant friends and colleagues． A significant partof this phenomenon is guided by genetics but it is also changed by the environment，diet and personal hygiene． This all together creates the unique chemistry that is individualistic for each person．（1）We can learn from Paragraph 1 that ．A．after a full meal our hearing is as good as beforeB．all sensory organs are connected and can be exchangedC．sensory organs' functions can never be changed for their particular character D．we feel and learn about the world around us through our eyes， ears， nose and tongue（2）What may happen after you have had a rich lunch？A． Your eyes become dim．B． You may feel energetic and fresh．C． Your hearing pitch may be decreased．D． Your tongue may lose the function of taste．（3）What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2？A．Our tongues can't be dried while eating something．B．If your tongue is dried without any saliva on it， it will not work．C．A tissue paper is the only thing that can be used to dry our tongues．D．If your tongue is dried with a tissue paper， it may work as well as before．（4）What makes each person different from anyone else except twins？A． The number of sensory organs．B． The functions of sensory organs．C． The particular smell of a person．D． The style of one's behaviour．（5）What is the text mainly about？A． The functions of sensory organs．B．The connectivity of our tongue and ear．C．A newborn's senses of the sensory organs．D．The differences of senses between women and men．20．(★★★★★)DAmerican students often have to take out loans to help pay for their education． Some students are very interested in the cost of undergraduate and graduate study in the United Sates． The first thing we should know is that the prices are different from school to school． The private colleges and universities generally cost more than public ones． Another thing to keep in mind is that notall students pay the "published price" of a school． Financial aid and scholarshipsmay reduce the cost．The average published price for undergraduate study at a four-year public college was about seven thousand dollars． That was for students from "instate''． Students from other states as well as international students paid an average of more than eighteen thousand dollars． This is the bad news-international students often have to pay the highest prices． And these averages were only for tuition （学费） fees． Food， housing， books and supplies can add ten to twelve thousand dollars a year． The College Board says the average tuition at a private college was about twenty-six thousand dollars．Many students save money by starting their education at a two-year public college， also known as a community college． The average tuition this year was about two thousand five hundred dollars．A few American colleges provide a free education， including the military and Merchant Marine academies． They accept some foreign students． Berea College is a small Christian school in Berea， Kentucky， that pays all first-year costs for its foreign students． But they are expected to pay one thousand dollars a year after that． Summer jobs are provided to help meet this cost．Costs for graduate study in the United States also differ from school to school，and even from program to program． Here too， public universities charge more for out-of-state tuition． For example， at the University of Kentucky， out-of-state graduate tuition averaged about eighteen thousand dollars this year． In-statc was about nine thousand．（1）The passage is mainly talking about ．A．how much an undergraduate or graduate needs to pay for studying in the United States．B．how an undergraduate or graduate can choose a suitable program or college in the USA．C．how much a foreign undergraduate or graduate needs to pay for studying in the USA．D．why so many undergraduates and graduates are studying in the USA．（2）Generally speaking， the annual cost of a foreign college student in a public college in the USA is ．A． 36-40 thousand dollarsB． 17-19 thousand dollarsC． 26 thousand dollarsD． 28-30 thousand dollars（3）A foreign student who chooses Berea College is able to ．A．get more career opportunities during summer vacationsB．reduce the cost of receiving education in the USA a lotC．have the chance to get along with world famous professorsD．earn a great deal of money when they are at college（4）What should an American graduate do in order to save money according to the passage？A．He should choose a public university in his own state．B．He should choose those unfamous public universities．C．He should avoid changing his major at college．D．He should try to do some part-time jobs．（5）What can be inferred from the passage？A．The college tuition in America is higher than that in other countries．B．The higher the tuition is， the better the college is in the USA．C．Not all the parents in the USA will pay their children's tuition of college．D．Some American students have to leave college because of the high tuition．第三部分：写作（共两节；满分10分）第一节：阅读表达（共1小题；每题2分，满分10分）21．(★★★)Most people agree that honesty is a good thing． But does Mother Nature agree？ Animals can't talk， but can they lie in other ways？ Can they lie with their bodies and behavior？ Animal experts may not call it lying， but they do agree that many animals， from birds to chimpanzees， behave dishonestly to fool other animals． Why？ Dishonesty often helps them survive．Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals． For example，a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young． When a predator （猎食动物）gets close to its nest， the plover leads the predator away from the nest． How？ It pretends to have a broken wing． Thepredator follows the "hurt" adult， leaving the baby birds safe in the nest．Another kind of bird， the scrub jay， buries its food so it always has something to eat． Scrub jays are also thieves． They watch where others bury their food and steal it． But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them． So they go back later， unbury the food， and bury it again somewhere else． Birds called cuckoos have found a way to have babies without doing muchwork． How？ They don't make nests． Instead， they gel into other birds' nests secretly． Then they lay their eggs and fly away． When the baby birds come out，their adoptive parents feed them．Chimpanzees， or chimps， can also be [sneaky]． After a fight， the losing chimp will give its hand to the other． When the winning chimp puts out its hand，too， the chimps are friendly again． But an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winner's hand and start fighting again．Chimps are dishonest in other ways，too． When chimps find food that they love，such as bananas， it is natural for them to cry out． Then other chimps come running． But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they findfood． That way， other chimps don't hear them， and they don't need to share their food．As children， many of us learn the saying "You can't fool Mother Nature．" But maybe you can't trust her， either．（1）According to the passage， why do many animals behave dishonestly to fool others？（no more than 10 words）（2）How does a plover deal with it when a predator approaches its nest？（no more than 15 words）（3）Who often feed cuckoos' baby birds？（no more than 3 words）（4）What does the underlined word in paragraph 5 mean？（no more than 1 word）（5）What kind of animal do you like best？ And why？（no more than 20 words）第二节：书面表达（满分25分）22．(★★★★★)假设你是李津，天津某中学高三学生．你的加拿大笔友Susan正在学汉语，她给你发来邮件，询问你3月23日的英语考试并请她推荐一份汉语读物．请你给她回复邮件，要点如下：1．表示感谢；2．介绍你3月英语考试的详情（如心态、答题情况及考后反思等）；3．推荐红楼梦（A Dream of Red

This is a lesson that some large American corporations have learned in the hard way.What’s in the name?Sometimes the problem is the name. When General Motors introduced its Chevy Nova into Latin America, it overlooked the fact that Nova in Spanish means “It doesn’t go”. Sure enough, the Chevy Nova never went anywhere in La tin America.Translation problemsSometimes it is the slogan that doesn’t work. No company knows this better than Pepsi-Cola, with its “Come alive with Pepsi!” campaign. The campaign was so successful in the United States that Pepsi translated its slogan literally (按字面意思的) for its international campaign. As it turned out, the translations were not quite right. Pepsi was begging Germans to “Come out of the grave” and telling the Chinese that “Pepsi brings your ancestors back from the grave.”A picture is worth a thousand wordsOther times, the problem involves packaging. A picture of a smiling baby has helped sell countless jars of Gerber baby food. When Gerber started selling baby food in Africa, they used the same packaging as in the US, with the smiling baby on the label.Later they learned that in African countries, the picture on the jar shows what the jar has in it, for many people there can’t read.Twist of fateEven culture and religious factors and pure coincidence can be involved. Thorn McAn shoes have a Thorn McAn “signature” inside. To people in Bangladesh, which is a Muslim country, this signature looked like Arabic script for the word Allah. In that country, feet are considered unclean, and Muslims felt the company was offendingGo d’s name by having people walk on it.36. From the text we learn that ________.A. Chevy Nova was brought in Latin AmericaB. General Motors did the best market research of all companiesC. Pepsi still sold well in China owing to the translation problemsD. the “Come alive with Pepsi” campaign worked well in the US37. What was Gerber’s problem?A. A translation problem.B. Cultural factor.C. Religious factor.D. The picture on the jar.38. For what reason were Thorn McAn shoes turned down in Bangladesh?A. They are not designed attractively.B. Their advertisements are not persuasive.C. A signature looking like the word Allah was in the shoes.D. Problem for Thorn McAn was the company’s name.39. The intended readers of the passage are ________.A. product advertisersB. market researchersC. managers of Sales DepartmentD. businesses to promote products abroad40. What does the text mainly tell us?A. Lessons from some large corporations.B. How to make use of advertisements.C. The importance of market research.D. The importance of packagingBThat cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pulled up to the sidewalk next to me. Whe n a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 A. M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as pe ople were willing to help each other.41. How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sick.B. Fortunate and hopeful.C. Satisfied and cheerful.D. Disappointed and helpless.42. From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy ________.A. solving her problem at the bankB. taking part in various city activitiesC. learning acting in an evening schoolD. preparing for the first night show43. On her way home the writer ________.A. lost her wallet unknowinglyB. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed manD. found some homeless people following her44. In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A. Someone offered to take her back home.B. A red-haired man came to see her.C. She heard someone call her name.D. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.45. From the text, we can infer that the writer ________.A. would stop working at nightB. would stay on in San FranciscoC. would make friends with cleanersD. would give up her job at the bankCMost forest fires are caused by human carelessness or ignorance. Forest fire prevention, therefore, is mainly a problem of creating better understanding of the importance of forests, an awareness of the danger of fire in the woods, and a sense of personal responsibility to safeguard the forests from danger. This is not an easy job.Careless smokers are responsible for thousands of forest fires each year. Many of these are started when cigarette butts (烟蒂) and matches are thrown from automobiles. Others are caused by hunters, hikers (徒步旅行者), fishermen, or woods workers who are careless in disposing (处理) of their smoking materials. The Forest Service has posted rules in many of the National Forests that ban smoking except in certain designated (指示) areas. Many of the states have laws against throwing lighted materials from automobiles. The prevention of smoker-caused fires, however, depends upon changingthe attitudes and behavior of millions of people who smoke in dangerous area.The most important natural cause of fire is lightning. This accounts for 11 per cent of forest fires on protected land for the entire nation. In the Western States, lightning causes a much higher percentage of fires than it does in the East.Advances in knowledge of fire weather are helping forest protection forces to know when to be alert to lightning-caused fires. Adequate and well-equipped forces can control them quickly and hold the damage to a minimum. Experiments in “seeding” thunder clouds to prevent or control the lightning itself have been in process for many years, but new breakthroughs are needed for any significant reduction in the fires lightning starts.46. This passage is chiefly about ________.A. smoking in forestsB. changing the attitudes and behavior of millions of peopleC. the chief causes of forest fires and their preventionD. advances in knowledge of fire weather47. Preventing smoker-caused forest fires is mainly a problem of ________.A. building the proper knowledge and habits in human beingsB. safeguarding the forests from fireC. posting rules in forestsD. holding the damage to a minimum48. Lightning-caused fires can be controlled quickly by ________.A. holding the fire damage to a minimumB. people who have changed their attitude and behaviorC. enough fire fighters with good fire-fighting devicesD. carrying out experiments in “seeding” thunder clouds49. “Alert to” (2nd line, 4th paragraph) most probably means _________.A. aware ofB. watchful forC. responsible forD. busy with50. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. It is difficult to prevent forest fires.B. Smoking is allowed only in certain forests.C. 11% of the forest fires in the Western States are caused by lightning.D. Experiments in “seeding” thunder clouds have helped reduce lightning-causedforest fires.DFear is an emotion like others such as happiness, anger, hurt, sadness. We need emotions to process information we receive and decide how to respond. Being afraid of fast cars, for example, is something that might protect us from harm. Being afraid of the consequence of a choice may prevent us getting into trouble.Fears in young children commonly center on certain animals like snakes or big dogs. Fears are caused often because of experiences or ideas expressed by others, and at times, the media. Many normal fears during the early years, like men with beards, or large dogs, disappear with age. Those relating to personal failure and ridicule (嘲笑) remain through adulthood and may need special help to overcome.Children’s fears are often small, but that doesn’t mean th ey should be dismissed as trivial (微不足道的). They need to be recognized and accepted as real for that child. Only when we help children understand their fears can they grow normally in their ability to settle them.Research shows that as a child grows up, the center of his fears changes a lot. Things like divorce, a teacher who “shouted at me”, people with guns, bullies, big boys, or “making fun of me” top the list of childhood fears.We cannot always prevent these experiences from happening, but it is essential that children be allowed to freely express their emotions without judgment. Sympathy and a caring listener will help ease pain of these fears. Read books and stories to your child about children who have experienced similar fears. This helps children talk about their fears and find ways to cope. With all emotions, fears become less of a problem for children as they gain self-confidence and they find that fear is normal and can be dealt with.51. According to Paragraph 2, we can know that fears in young children ________.A. only center on frightening animalsB. are not born but learnedC. can make sure of their safetyD. need special help to deal with52. Children’s fears are often ignored because ________.A. they exist widely in the worldB. they will disappear with ageC. people thought they are not worth consideringD. they are often imaginary53. In dealing with children’s fears, the final goal of the parents is to ________.A. stop unpleasant experiences happening to childrenB. let children know about the nature of fearC. create an environment where there is nothing to fearD. develop children’s ability to treat their fears on their own54. From the passage we can learn that ________.A. some childhood fears may have a lasting influenceB. children should avoid the media to reduce their fearC. fears can be judged according to the environmentD. children with similar fears can communicate easily55. What’s the best title for this passage?A. Childr en’s fearsB. How to overcome children’s fearsC. The kind of children’s fearsD. The bad effects of fears第三部分：语法专项练习(共15小题：每小题0.5分，满分7.5分）56.

when she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face，she gasped - the baby had been born without ears． Time， however， proved that the baby's hearing was perfect except his appearance．One day when he rushed home from school and threw himself into his mother's arms， he cried out bitterly，"A boy， a big boy…called me a [freak]． ''She sighed，knowing that his life was to be endless of heartbreaks．He grew up， handsome for his misfortune． A favorite with his fellow students，he might have been class president， but for that． He developed a gift forliterature and music．The boy's father had a talk with the family doctor． Could nothing be done？ "I believe we could graft（移植）on a pair of outer ears，if they could be donated，''the doctor decided． So the search began for a person who would make such a sacrifice for a young man． Two years went by． Then，"You're going to the hospital，son． Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need． But it's a secret， ''said the father．The operation was a brilliant success． His talents blossomed intogenius． School and college became a series of successes． Later he married and entered the diplomatic（外交）service． "But I must know!" he urged his father． "Who gave so much for me？ I could never do enough for him． '' "I do not believe you could，" said the father，"but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet．'' The years kept the secret ，but the day did come - one of the darkest days that ever passed through a son． He stood with his father over his mother's casket（棺材）．Slowly and tenderly， the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick， reddish-brown hair to let out the secret．（1）The story is mainly about ．A．how a boy had new ears through an operationB．what a devoted parent privately did for the childC．how a disabled boy turned into a useful personD．why a donator made a sacrifice to a bright boy（2）From the first paragraph we know that the mother ．A．was determined to donate her ears to perfect her

between the donator and the family．B．The boy was so popular that he was made class president．C．Finally the boy came to know who the donator was．D．The mother donated her ears to her son after she died．（5）What moral lesson can we draw from this reading？A．Real love lies in what is done unknown rather than what is done known．B．It is up to parents to help their children heart and soul．C．True beauty lies only in the heart not in appearance．D．It is a virtue for young generations to learn to be grateful．19．(★★★)COnline clothes shoppers will be told exactly what size is best for them using new software which combines with their web camera or smart phone to form a"3D tape measure"．Scientists from Surrey University and design experts from the London College of Fashion are developing a program which can take precise （精确的）waist， hip，chest and other measurements from camera images．Using the person's height as a starting point， the software will be able to build up a 3D image and estimate their size at various different points on the body，based on their overall proportions（比例）．The result will be a more accurate sizing guide than previous systems based on waist size or a "small / medium / large" scale，which rely on limited measurements and the buyer's perception of their own body size．Shoppers and retailers（零售商）who choose to sign up for the project couldsave millions of pounds a year in postage costs by removing the need to order multiple sizes of the same garment（服装）and send back ill-fitting clothes，researchers claimed．The project， sponsored by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council（EPSRC）， is expected to be brought to market within two years．After choosing an item， the shopper will activate the software， enter their height， stand in front of their webcam or smart phone in their underwear and takea photograph．The software will not store or transmit the image to the Internet， but will use it to judge the person's dimensions at various points on their body．Philip Delamore of the London College of Fashion said："The potential benefits for the fashion industry and for shoppers are huge． Currently， it's common for online shoppers to order two or three different sizes of the same item of clothing at the same time，as they're unsure which one will fit best．"（1）What is the essential part of a 3D tape measure？A． a softwareB． a webcamC． a microphoneD． a smart phone（2）What can we learn about the 3D tape measure？A．It will store or transmit the image to the Internet．B．It is based on the buyer's perception of their size．C．It will be a co-working production．D．It uses a person's weight as a starting point．（3）Compared with the traditional sizing system， a 3D tape measure is ．A． quickerB． more preciseC． more beautifulD． more vivid（4）How can the 3D tape measure benefit online shoppers？A．Online shoppers will get their ordered garment in time．B．Online shoppers will get their ordered garment more quickly．C．Online shoppers will get an ordered garment of high quality．D．Online shoppers will get an ordered garment to their measure．（5）What is the right order for a shopper to form a 3D tape measure？①to take a photo with a webcam②to activate the software③to enter his / her height④to judge his size by analyzing his imageA．①②③④B．②①③④C．②③①④D．②③④①20．(★★★★)DAs the pace of life continues to increase， we are fast losing the art of relaxation． Once you are in the habit of rushing through life， being on the go from morning till night， it is hard to slow down． But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body．Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it． Infact， it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be． A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life． It is only whenthe stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health． The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual． Some people are not afraid of stress， and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities， others lose heart at the first sign of unusual difficulties． When exposed to stress， in whatever form， we react both chemically and physically． In fact we make choice between "fright or fight" and in more primitive days the choices made the difference between life or death． The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme， but however little the stress， it involves the same response． It is when such a reaction lasts long，through continued exposure to stress， that health becomes endangered． Since wecan't remove stress from our lives （it would be unwise to do so even if we could），we need to find ways to deal with it．（1）People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because ．A．they regard working as their greatest enjoymentB．they believe that work is superior to relaxationC．they are traveling fast all the timeD．they are becoming busier with their work than ever before（2）According to the author， the most important character for a good manager ishis ．A． strong will to hold out stressB． knowing the art of relaxationC． high sense of responsibilityD． having control over performance（3）Which of the following statements is TRUE， according to the passage？A．We can find quite a few ways to avoid stress．B．Stress is always harmful to people's healthC．Ifs easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work．D．Different people can bear different amount of stress．（4）In the last sentence of the passage， "do so" refers to ．A．"expose ourselves to stress"B．"find ways to deal with stress"C．"remove stress from our lives"D． "establish links between diseases and stress"（5）According to the author， the right attitude toward stress is ．A． to avoid itB． to try to cope with itC． to regard it as a vital motivationD． to find some relaxation第三部分：写作第一节：阅读表达（满分10分）阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题．21．(★★★)After an exhausting swim practice on a cold winter evening， I received an invitation from my friend Lucy， asking me to attend a dance． At the top of the invitation， Young Angels was written across the page． Young Angels was organizing a dance to raise money for community service projects． I thought it was such a great idea that I not only wanted to attend it， but also wanted to become involved．This was over two years ago and since then， I have become a lead member in Young Angels of America． At each dance， teens not only have fun with theirfriends but are also informed about different charities． Knowing that I havetaught others how they can get involved makes me feel satisfied and delighted．The most memorable experience of my time in Young Angels was the Middle School Winter Dance in 2007， when we had a special child help organize the dance and participate in the event． This child was Lily． Lily had a [dreadful] diseasethat will eventually kill her． Lily had the best attitude towards life： she enjoyed every moment and made the best of it． Lily got me inspired to help others and never take any moment for granted．I now have a dream， I want to inspire as many children as possible to volunteer． So many kids don't realize how easy it is to make a difference to the world． I am only 15 years old and I have organized over five events， getting nearly 1，000 children involved． I want to be the angel to inspire that passion in others to make the difference that I feel as I have made to my community．（1）What's the purpose of the dance organized by Young Angels？（no more than 8 words）（2）How did the author feel about her influence on others？（no more than 6 words）（3）What does the underlined word "dreadful" in Paragraph 3 mean？（1 word）（4）What is the author's dream？（no more than 10 words）（5）What do you think of the
