But just as I am about to do so, I find the article on the 36 side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to 37 in good health, or 38 about how to behave and conduct yourself in society. If I cut the front article, the opposite one is likely to suffer 39 , leaving one half of it or keeping the text 40 the title. Therefore, the scissors(剪刀)would stay before they start, 41 the cutting would be halfway done when I find out the 42 result.Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time, both worth your 43 . Y ou can only take up one of them; the other has to wait or be 44 up. But you know the future is unpredictable – the changed situation may not 45 you to do what is left behind. Thus you are 46 in a difficult position and feel sad. How come nice 47 and clever ideas should gather around all at once? It may happen that your life 48 greatly on your preference of your one choice to the other.In fact that is what 49 is like; we are often 50 with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable(引人的) 51 a newspaper cutting. It often occurs that our attention is drawn to the thing only 52 we get into another. The 53 may be more important than the latter and give rise to a divided mind.

Since Fridays mark the start of the weekend in manycountries, behavior in general tends to be more relaxed on Fridays,with some employers not being as particular about standards, andsometimes this is formalized in a casual Friday policy. Truly casualclothing like sweatpants and t-shirts is usually not satisfying.The casual Friday concept was one of the first signs that strict dress codes for offices were starting to relax. The principle of Dress-Down Fridays seems to have appeared around the 1950s, probably in response to changing attitudes about careers and the workplace. Over time, some offices have relaxed their dress codes even more, adopting a business casual dress code every day.On casual Fridays, employees may wear clothing which is classified as ―business casual,‖ meaning that it still obeys certain standards. Clothing must be clean and in good repair, with no spots or discolorations(变色). Men are generally allowed to wear casual trousers and bright-colored clothes, and in some offices they may be allowed to wear button down shirts or polo shirts, with or without a tie. Women tend to wear neat skirts or dresses; casual trousers are common and generally perfectly acceptable, except in very conservative workplaces.As a general rule, extremely casual clothing like jeans, shorts, t-shirts, tank tops(吊带衫), and so forth is discouraged on casual Fridays. Employees are still expected to make an effort to look professional, out of respect to their offices and their customers.Many people feel that casual Fridays are good for employees’ mood, encouraging employees to express their individuality and feel more comfortable in the office. Others feel that business casual dress and the concept of casual Fridays devalues the workplace, by taking a sense of formality and respect away. Approaches to casual Fridays vary, depending on the industry and the nation; the technology industry, for example, is well known for casual dress in general, while major financial companies tend to dislike casual dress.56. From the second paragraph, we can infer _______________.A. the casual Friday concept is out of fashionB. it’s forbidden to wear casual clothing in offices beforeC. the idea of casual Fridays has originated from the early 1990sD. employees can wear all kinds of casual clothing every day now.57. The underlined word ―devalue‖ in the last paragraph means ____________.A. think little ofB. think highly ofC. estimate highlyD. take the place of58. Generally speaking, on casual Fridays as a worker in a company you can wear _____.A. jeansB. tank topsC. shortsD. polo shirts59. The article most probably appears in the newspaper Column ___________.A. SportsB. EntertainmentC. CultureD. CustomsB"Good morning, Discovery Center. We're happy to be here with you. I'm Barb Morgan. And we are ready for your first question. "That was teacher-turned-astronaut Barbara Morgan, speaking from more than 320 kilometers above Earth. She was greeting the students in the northwestern state of Idaho. They gathered at the Discovery Center in Boise on Tuesday to ask the astronauts questions by video link.Barbara Morgan taught elementary school in McCall, Idaho, before she trained for space. She and six other astronauts arrived Friday on the shuttle(航天飞机)Endeavour to bring supplies and new equipment to the international station. Barbara Morgan is fifty-five years old. She taught for many years before she became an astronaut.One student asked, "Hi, I'm Sarah Blum. How does being a teacher relate with being an astronaut on this mission?" Barbara Morgan said "Well, actually, astronauts and teachers actually do the same things. We discover and we share. The great thing about being a teacher is that you get to do that with students. And the great thing about being an astronaut is you get to do it in space. And those are absolutely wonderful jobs."Barbara Morgan first prepared for a shuttle flight more than twenty years ago. She trained in case NASA needed a substitute for Christa McAuliffe, its choice to become the first teacher in space.Then, in 1986, Christa McAuliffe died with the Challenger crew when the shuttle exploded shortly after launch. After the disaster, NASA officials barred other civilians from shuttle flights. But in 1998, they created a new position for teachers to become fully trained astronauts. Barbara Morgan is NASA's first "educator astronaut" launched into orbit.One of her first tasks was to operate Endeavour's robotic arm to inspect the shuttle for any launch-related damage. Cameras showed a small area hit by a piece of protective foam （泡沫）that fell off the fuel tank. NASA officials say the damage is not a safety threat but they are deciding what to do about it.60. Barbara Morgan is different from other astronauts on the shuttle in that _____.A. she used to be a woman pilotB. she used to be a teacherC. she was chosen to become the first teacher in spaceD. she was the first woman to travel in space61. The chief aim of the space flight on the shuttle Endeavour was to_____.A. bring supplies and new equipment to the international stationB. inspect the shuttle for any launch-related damageC. give a music lesson by Barbara Morgan from spaceD. launch a communication satellite62. We can infer that _____.A. Barbara Morgan prefers a teacher to an astronautB. Barbara Morgan prefers an astronaut to a teacherC. Barbara Morgan like both a teacher and an astronautD. Barbara Morgan like neither a teacher nor an astronaut63. If Christa McAuliffe had not been on the shuttle the Challenger in 1986, what would have happened?A. Christa McAuliffe would have become a famous actress.B. Barbara Morgan would have died.C. nothing would have happened to the Challenger.D. Barbara Morgan would have become a NASA official.64. Which of the following is the right order about Barbara Morgan?a. answered the questions in spaceb. prepared for a shuttle flight more than twenty years agoc. taught elementary school in McCall, Idahod. became a substitute for Christa McAuliffeA. a, b, c, dB. a, c, b, dC. c, b, d, aD. d, b, c, aCThe campaign is over. The celebrations have ended. And the workfor US president-elect Barack Obama has begun.The 47-year-old politician rose to the highest post because of hisstand against the war in Iraq and his plans to fix a weak economy. Butwhat will the first 47-year-old African-American president do for race relations?Obama’s victory appears to have given blacks and other minorities a true national role model. For years, many looked to athletes and musicians for inspiration. As Darius Turner, an African-American high school student in Los Angeles, told the Los Angeles Times, ―Kobe doesn’t have to be everybody’s role model anymore.‖Recent polls（民意测验）also suggest that Obama’s victory has given Americans new optimism about race relations. For example, a USA Today poll found that two-thirds of Americans believe relations between blacks and whites ―will finally be worked out‖. This is the most hopeful response since the question was first asked during the civil rights revolution in 1963.However, it’s still too early to tell whether Obama’s presidency will begin to solve many of the social problems facing low-income black communities.Although blacks make up only 13 percent of the US population, 55 percent of all prisoners are African-American. Such numbers can be blamed on any number of factors on America’s racist past, a failure of government policy and the collapse(瓦解)of the family unit in black communities.It is unlikely that Obama will be able to reverse (扭转) such trends overnight. However, Bill Bank, an expert of African-American Studies, says that eventually young blacks need to find role models in their own communities. ―That’s not Martin Luther King, and not Barack Obama,‖ he told the Los Angeles Times. ―It’s actually the people closest to them. Barack only has so much influence.‖In the opinion of black British politician Trevor Phillips, Obama’s rise will contribute more to multiculturalism than to race relations in the US.―When the G8 meets, the four most important people in the room will be the president of China, the prime minister of India, the prime minister of Japan and Barak Obama,‖ he told London’s The Times newspaper. ―It will be the first time we’ve seen that on our television screens. That will be a huge psychological shift (心理转变) for both the white people and the colored ones in the world.‖65. According to Bill Bank, ____________.A. it’s better for young blacks to f ind role models in those who are close to themB. young blacks should not be so much influenced by ObamaC. blacks should find other role models because Obama is far from their realityD. Obama is not the proper role model for African-Americans66. What would be the best title for this passage?A. The First African-American PresidentB. America’s New Role ModelC. Obama-- A Successful Black .D. Choosing a Right Role Model.67. What will be the huge psychological shift Trevor mentioned at the end of the passage?A. The other three leaders all support Obama.B. Obama is an African-American president.C. None of the four leaders is white.D. The other three leaders except Obama are from Asian countries.DIn the push to improve education, test scores get most of the attention. Many educators say, "Test scores shadow other ways in which children can be inspired to learn." Here is a fresh method to ensure students to make the grade.●The SchoolFairview Elementary School is located in the south side of Modesto, California, where the crime rate is high. Fairview, with about 1,000 students from kindergarten through to sixth grade, has long suffered from discipline problems, poor test scores, and a nearly total lack of communication with their parents. These problems are not surprising because many of the parents —immigrants who work on farms or in factories —speak little or no English.●The MethodSince 2002, Fairview Elementary School has been on a five-year program: to keep America strong, children must be trained to respect many points of view, and understand the five freedoms, such as freedom of speech. As students learn the rights and responsibilities of a good citizen, they will develop the skills and attitudes needed to excel in study.The program has no set classes. Fairview students enjoy "freedoms" other kids might envy (they voted not to wear school uniforms, for example). They accept such responsibilities as speaking up during class discussions, and keeping the school clean and safe (Fairview is considered the cleanest of 33 schools in its district). Different from tradition, there is no hand-raising in class. "Instead," says teacher Deborah Supnet, "we teach them to listen until the other child stops talking." It is called an exercise in respect.●_________________Last year, the number of students who performed well in math doubled, from 15% to 30%. Suspension(停学) rates dropped by 50%. What is particularly encouraging to headmaster Rob Williams is that the school now has an active parents’group: Parent s with a V oice. One of those parents, Laura Malagon, believes that the program allows her to play a more active role in her children’s school life.68. The passage mainly talks about ______.A. the disadvantages immigrants faceB. a change in an immigrant schoolC. many ways to improve students’ qualitiesD. a fresh idea that can improve education69. According to the passage, which was NOT a problem at the Fairview Elementary School?A. The bad behavior of students.B. The poor performance of their students.C. The lack of freedom to speak.D. The lack of contact with parents.70. We can add a subheading to the last paragraph in the blank with ________.A. Signs of SuccessB. Future of the SchoolC. Effort of the ParentsD. Parents with a V oiceEDuring your lifetime, the person you’ll spend most time with is you! 71.When you are going upwards in life, you tend to overestimate yourself. It seems that everything you seek for is within your reach; luck and opportunities will come your way and are overjoyed that you think they constitute part of your worth.72.To get a thorough understanding of yourself is to gain a correct view of yourself—be aware of both your strengths and weaknesses. Y ou may look forward hopefully to the future but be sure not to expect too much, for not all ideals can be fully realized.73 . In time of sadness, do yourself a favor by sharing it with your friends so as to change a gloomy mood into a cheerful one; in time of tiredness, do yourself a favor by getting a good sleep or taking a tonic(恢复精力的东西). 74.To get a thorough understanding of yourself is to get full control of yourself. 75.A．When you are going downhill, you tend to underestimate yourself, mistaking difficulties for your own incompetence.B．In time of trouble, turn to your teacher for help.C．If you fall ill, it’s up to you to take good care of yourself.D．Having done so, you will find your life full of color and flavor.E．To know yourself better, you should learn more.F．To get a thorough understanding of yourself is to know when to do yourself a favor.G．But do you really understand yourself?宁夏六盘山高中2008-2009学年高三第三次模拟试卷答题卡II卷（主观题）35分第四部分写作（共二节，满分35分）第一节短文改错。
