Cheerful Charlie was a very special boy. When he was still in his mother’s tummy, she had an accident, which meant that Charlie couldn’t walk. But that had never been a(n) 1 for him; they had started calling him Cheerful Charlie because of his joyful and 2 nature. He really brightened everything up for those around him.
There wasn’t a postman, or a taxi driver who wasn’t 3 to see Charlie. “Cheer up, Mr. Postman, that way you’ll 4 more letters today!〞he would say, or “That was great, Mr. Taxi Driver.
You 5 that thing better than anyone else. 〞
He also had great ideas and 6 for everything; and he shared them so generously that, just about every day in that town, someone did a great job, or 7 something new, thanks to Charlie’s ideas.
One day, though, he came up against a real 8 . A young boy came to town on his holidays. He was known as Waterworks and was a real crybaby. No matter what Charlie said to him, Waterworks would always find
some 9 to be sad: “I don’t have many sweets… my parents didn’t buy me that toy…〞 Everything seemed so bad to him. But Cheerful Charlie wasn’t going to be10 , and he kept spending more time with Waterworks, 11 trying to cheer him up, just as he did with everyone.
Then, one day, when they were together in the street,
someone 12 a pie from a window above by chance, and it landed 13 on Charlie’s head. He got such a fright that he couldn’t even move his lips. He was speechless, and although Waterworks was just about to cry, he 14 Charlie’s happy words so much that he finally sa id, “Wow, Charlie, that’s a nice clown mask(小丑面具) you just put on!〞
On saying those words, Waterworks felt so 15 that he finally understood why Charlie was always so happy and cheerful. He realized that he was so used to Charlie’s enthusiasm that he couldn’t help but see the funny side of everything.

It is commonly believed that school is 16 people go to get education. However, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The difference 17 schooling and education 18 (suggest) by this is important.
Education is endless,19(compare) with schooling. It can take place anywhere. It includes both the standard learning that takes place in schools and the whole universe of learning out of class. Though the experience of schooling can be known in20 (advanced), education quite often produces surprises. A chance talk with a 21(foreign) may lead a person to discovering how little he knows of another country.
People obtain education from babies on. Education, then, is a very broad and 22 (limit) term. It is lifelong experience that starts long before the start of school.
Schooling,23the other hand, is a basic experience, 24style changes little from one way to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at the same time, take_25 (fix) seats, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams and so on. Schooling has usually been limited by the edges of the subjects being taught. 第三局部阅读理解〔共两节，总分为50分〕
第一节：〔共20小题；每一小题2分，总分为40分〕
阅读如下短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最优选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
When a consumer finds that something he or she bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to what the producer says for it , the first step is to present the warranty(保单)，or any other records that might help, at the store of buying. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.
A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the “higher up〞 the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer’s favor, taking it as true that he or she has a just right.
Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of buying, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.
Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can show clearly what is wrong with what was bought in question. If this can’t be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, “The left speaker doesn’t work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear〞is better than “This tape recorder does not work.〞The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the producer, if so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the expected result, the consumer can take a step further. He can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a public organization responsible for protecting consumers’ right s. 26．When a consumer finds what he bought has a fault in it, he should first_________..
plain personally to the manager
B.show something provable in written form to the store
C.threaten to take the matter to the court
D.write a firm letter to complain to the store
27. If a consumer wants a quick settlement of his problem, it’s better to complain to _______.
A. a shop assistant
B.the producer
C. a public organization
D. a store manager
28. The most effective complaint about what was bought can be made by________
A.showing the fault of it to the producer
B.saying firmly it is of poor quality
C.asking politely to change it
D.explaining exactly what is wrong with it
29. The passage tells us _________
A. how to make the complaint effective
B. how to settle a
consumer’s complaint
C. how to avoid buying something wrong
D. how to deal with complaint
from countries
30. According to the passage, the last way a consumer has to use is_______
A.to write to the producer
B.to quarrel with the manager
C.to warn the seller that he will turn to the court or a consumers’
organization for help
D.to collect several fighters to threaten the seller
B
In many parts of the world, cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist without them. So the idea that in 20 years’ time,no one will own cars may be hard to believe. But this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously, not only by government but also by car manufacturers.
The Human Science and Advanced Technology Institute at Loughborough in the UK is part of an international research program. The team there believes that by 2020 all cars will be computerized, which will mean much saving, no accidents and better use of roads. The super-intelligent car of the 21st century will drive itself, and it will not be owned by one individual. Instead, we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing.
According to Dr. David Davis , who leads the research team, these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture, which had blocked up our cities, polluted our air , and caused more deaths than both world wars put together.
Davis says, cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices to regulate the distance between one car and another. The car will automatically speed up, or slow down, to match the speed of the car in front. Computers are much safer drivers than people, so cars in a road train will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people.
By 2010, Dr. David Davis believes, car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road, whatever the weather conditions, by projecting an image of the road ahead on to the car’s windscreen. And by 2020, cars will travel in convoy, linked to each other electronically. Cars will be connected by an electronic tow bar to the car in front to form “road –trains〞. “The front vehicle in such a
train burns the normal amount.〞says Davis. “But all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount, and so produce about ten percent of the pollution.〞
31.We know from the passage that governments and car manufacturers _______
A. do not believe the prediction that no one will own cars by 2020
B. are devoted to the technological revolution in car industry
C. consider the predictions seriously
D. have put the super-intelligent car into mass production
32. Which of the following will be the characteristic of the cars of 2020?
A.The car will speed up out of control
B.We will own as many cars as we want
C.All cars will be driven by computers
D.Cars will produce more pollution than present ones
C
The central government will pour billions of yuan into special projects to help meet the country’s energy-saving targets. Local officials are also about to come under increased pressure to toe the government line to meet the targets, otherwise their political futures could be in jeopardy. A top official from the National Development and Reform Commission reaffirmed China’s commitment to cutting energy use and emissions when making a report to the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress yesterday.
“We’re facing a very vital situation to cut energy use,〞 Ma Kai, the NDRC minister said. “If we don’t fasten our pace, it will be difficult to meet the targets this year.〞
Ma said the central government would also issue compulsory energy consumption standards for 22 products such as steel, cement, caustic soda and thermal power by the end of the year. NDRC figures show that the country’s energy consumption per unit of gross domestic product (GDP) dropped 2.78 percent in the first six months from the same period a year earlier. However, the government has set the target of
reducing energyconsumption per unit of GDP by 20 percent between 2006 and 2010, about an annual fall of 4 percent. But it fell only 1.33 percent last year from 2005. In addition, official figures also show that SO2 emissions dropped 0.88 percent to 12.63 million tons in the first half of the year.
The minister blamed some local officials for dragging the rest of the country down in not meeting the targets. He said the assessment of officials in many places still focused too much on their performance in economic growth, and many cities and counties still lacked concrete plans to cut energy consumption. Ma said we had paid too much to economic growth and serious consequences are revealing themselves.
36. The underlined sentence in paragraph 1 means “________________〞.
A. their families would be healthy
B. their futures would be bright
C. their futures would be in danger
D. their jobs would be necessary
37. The Chinese government will pour billions of yuan into special projects to _______________.
A. help reduce energy use and emissions
B. enlarge investment
C. improve the living conditions
D. balance the income between the poor and the rich
38. The underlined word in paragraph 2 means “__________〞.
A. useless
B. strange
C. helpful
D. important
39. From the passage, we can infer that _______________.
A. the government only focused on the economic growth
B. some local officials could have done more for cutting energy use and emissions
C. some local officials would not focus on the economic growth
D. SO2 emissions increased in the first half of the year
40. What caused the government to face a very vital situation to cut energy use?
A. The assessment of officials.
B. The central government would not issue energy consumption standards.
C. Many cities and counties still lacked concrete plans to cut energy consumption.
D. A and C.
D
Bedazzling (眼花缭乱) with their bright colors and eye-catching displays, fireworks light up our night skies during the holidays. However, these crowd-pleasers can have some damaging side effects.
Once a firework is set off, it only takes a couple of seconds before smoke, dust and harmful chemicals are let out into the atmosphere. The loud booming noises are caused by gunpowder. While the sounds may excite some people, they can be frightening to domestic and wild animals—as well as some humans.
The pretty colors you see are a result of more chemicals.Barium, added to make green, is known for its poisonous and radioactive qualities. Blue comes from copper compounds. Cadmium, lithium and lead—all found in fireworks—have been linked to diseases, such as allergies and skin rashes in both humans and animals. Acid rain has been linked to gases given off by fireworks, which sometimes go beyond the
toxin(毒素) limits of the United States Clean Air Act.
Once all those chemicals come back down to the ground, they can cause problems too. Debris (碎片) from the fireworks falls to the ground, where animals can burn their paws or noses on piping hot pieces. Humans also are at risk of stepping on or picking up something sharp or hot. Meanwhile, debris that finds its way into waterways can damage animal habitats and water supply sources.
Instead of setting off fireworks, try to come up with some new ways for fun. Here are some ideas to get you started:
•Sky lanterns—a tradition that originated long ago in the most-populated Asian country.
•Party crackers—a favorite in the United Kingdom—give you noise and surprises without the mess of fireworks. You can make your own or buy eco-friendly crackers.
•Want noise excitement with less volume? Consider a fireworks sound recording beforehand or break out the party horns (号角) and blow up a storm!
41. The advantages of fireworks can be seen below EXCEPT that _____.
A. the special sounds of fireworks excite people
B. debris from fireworks can even find its way into water
C. the pretty and bright colors add to the beauty of night skies
D. fireworks are enjoyed as one of the crowd-pleasers
42. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Copper compounds are needed to make green in fireworks.
B. Chemicals in fireworks are both poisonous and dangerous.
C. Too much gases from fireworks can result in acid rain.
D. Chemicals in fireworks are harmful in the air and on the ground.
43. All the italicized (斜体的) words are probably ____.
A. mineral materials
B. tiny solids
C. chemical elements
D. broken pieces
44. What is implied from the passage?
A. Gunpowder in fireworks makes loud booming noises.
B. It must be Indians who first started to hang sky lanterns.
C. Fireworks does less harm in the air than on the ground.
D. Fireworks can even break the balance of nature.
45. What can be concluded as the writer’s attitude towards fireworks?
A. It is not allowed to set off fireworks except during the holidays.
B. Fireworks should be banned and replaced by some other means.
C. Night is the best time to set off fireworks and see the pretty colors.
D. You cannot set off fireworks unless you come up with new ways.

第二节：读写任务1 〔共1小题，总分为25分〕
阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Teenagers’ secrets should be kept to themselve s and no one else, their parents
included, has the right to stick their nose into their private life. As we know,
teenagers are going through a special period of development both physically and psychologically. They are curious about and puzzled by the unexpected changes in
their body and mind. What’s more, exposed to a world of adults, it is only too natural
for them to begin imitating adults’ behaviors in secret. Boys begin to smoke and girls begin to spend time doing their hair and care more about what to wear. Some even begin to date with a girlfriend or boyfriend without letting their parents know. They are doing all this in secret because they are still unsure whether it is right to do so and afraid that, if found out by their parent, they will get misunderstood and even punished. In fact, in many cases, parents can not deal with such matters well but hurt their children’s feelings badly, making children unwilling to communicate with them any more. When this happens, it hurts terribly feelings of the family as well. Therefore, it sounds reasonable and acceptable that teenagers should keep their secrets to themselves instead of sharing them with their parents, who should give them the freedom in dealing with secrets.
【写作内容】
1. 以约30个词概括上面文章的要点；
2. 然后以约120个词就“青少年的秘密该不该与父母分享〞这一话题发表你的看法，至少包含以下内容：
1〕你是支持还是反对与父母分享秘密？你支持或反对的理由是什么？
3〕结合你的实际,谈谈你是具体怎么做的？
【写作要求】
1. 在作文中可以使用自己亲身的经历或虚构的故事，也可以参照阅读材料的内容, 但不得直接引用原文中的句子；
2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。

【评分标准】
概括准确，语言规范，内容适宜，篇章连贯。
