第二部分阅读理解（共两节，40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
In 1970, my five brothers, my sister and I lived in the housing projects (住宅区) of Toronto with our parents. My father was a factory worker, and my mother stayed at home. Each year my fath er would dress up as Santa Claus and go through the streets of the projects sharing joy and candies with the children there. He loved it as much as they did!
But around the Christmas in 1970, my father was out of his job and money was tight. In fact, there was no money for Christmas and my parents weren’t sure what they’d provide for us.
That Christmas Eve, however, as usual, my father left the house dressed as Santa Claus. He knew that even though our Christmas would be hard, h e could not disappoint the other kids in the neighborhood.
As my father left the house and went down the walkway, Santa Claus was walking up, with a gr eat sack (麻布袋) full of gifts for us! He said nothing, only smiled a sweet smile at my father, and wished him a Merry Christmas. The happy man handed Dad the sack and walked away down the block.
We never knew who the man was and who showed us great kindness on a snowy Christmas night. We do know, however, that without him we would have had nothing under the tree. His kindness gave my parents hope and showed us in a very real way the true meaning of Christmas.
Our family has never forgotten this kind stranger. Each year we tell the story of the mysterious Santa Claus and try to repay his gifts by giving gifts to others in need.
21.The author’s father ______.
A.was once the richest man in his hometown
B.was working in a government office
C.had to support a family of 9 people
D.looked like Santa Claus most

us helped themC. how they could repay the mysterious Santa Claus
D.they could find the mysterious Santa Claus one day
23.It can be learned that _____.
A.the mysterious Santa Claus was one of their relatives
B.the mysterious Santa
us was a rich man in the areaC. the sack from the mysterious Santa Claus was very expensive
D.the author’s family were all thankful to the mysteri ous Santa Claus
B
Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don't always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.
No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don't get along well, which doesn't mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away, then we feel very sad. We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again, and we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.
There's more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people if those don't have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares, if someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.
24.The first paragraph tells us __________.
A.none needs friends
B.we always need friends around us
C.making friends is the need in people's life
D.we need to be alone
25.Which of the following is the most probable place people name after friendly people?
A.A house.
B.A room.
C.A library.
D.A village.
26.If people have friends, they would live longer, because __________.
A.they feel happier and healthier
B.they get a lot of help from their fr iends
C.they take better care of themselves
D.both A and C
27.This passage tells us __________.
A.that people are all friends
B.that people need friends
C.how to get to know friends
D.how to name a place C
Last week I ran into an old friend. Helen, and it was lovely to catch up on all the things that we had experienced since then and to recall our school and college days. We had taken quite different paths and this was one of the reasons why we hadn’t stayed in touch with each other, the main one being that she had moved to the other side of the world.
While I had chosen to stay in my hometown, she had decided to win a medical scholarship to a medical college in the UAE, where she later got a dental(牙科的) scholarship and went to one of the best dental schools. After graduation, she went on a successful dental practice, and she had two dentists helping her.
We then began to discuss our old teachers, who were strict but fair compared with many of today’s teachers, In our school days corporal punishment(体罚)was only just going out of fashion and new laws were coming into effect though they were too late to help us. Thankfully we both bad been good students generally and rarely had to feel th e pain caused by the ruler. But teachers in modern schools have to be a lot braver than in our time because many children are advised to be respected and punishment of children is forbidden, and as a result, you will find teachers have to face rudeness, teasing and even attack.
Heavy work, low salaries, little opportunity for promotion(晋升),and the rising cost of living, it is no wonder that the number of people choosing a career in teaching has become smaller in recent years.
We both agree that education should be valued and our future will depend on the children.
28.What was the main reason why the author lost touch with Helen?
A.They disliked each other
B.Helen went abroad.
C.The author didn’t like Helen’s job.
D.They were too busy with their own work.
29.What can we learn about Helen?
A.She would work with the author.
B.She once taught in a medical college. .
C.She was successful in her career.
D.She want abroad to be
a dentist
30.Paragraph 4 mainly talks about________.
A.the reasons why fewer people choose to be teachers now.
B.the teachers’ salaries
C.the teachers’ living conditions
D.the main problems that teachers are facing now.
31.We can learn from the passage that ________.
A.the author is against being strict with students.
B.the author is for getting rid of punishment.
C.the author thinks education has improved.
D.the author thinks teachers are under a lot of stress now.
D
English has surely become the global language. Whenever we turn on the news to find out what’s happening in East Asia, or Africa, or anywhere, people are being interviewed(采访)and telling us about it in English.
If people look at the facts about the amazing reach of the English language, many would be surprised. English is used in over 90 countries as an official or
semi-official language. English is the working language of many international institutes(研究所)as well as of most international research scientists. It is also the language that Indian parents and black parents wish their children to learn. It is believed that over one billion people worldwide are now learning English.
One of the most important causes of the spread of English around the world is that Europeans are willing to accept it as their language. English is spreading from northern Europe to the south and is now the second language in countries such as Sweden, Norway, Netherlands and Denmark. If one visits any of them, it would seem that almost everyone there can talk in English.
Recently, a report said that at the beginning of 2001, English was the most widely known foreign language with 43% of Europeans saying they spoke it. The report also said that with over 89% of the population speaking English, Sweden now has the highest percentage of English speakers. What’s more, English is the language rated as most useful to know and over 77% of Europeans who do not speak English as their first language consider it useful.
32.By writing this passage, the writer mainly wants to tell us_______.
A.why so many people speak English around the world
B.that English has become a language spoken all over the world
C.about the development of English in Europe
D.something about the English-speaking countries
33.The writer mentions all of the following EXCEPT_______.
B.Europe
C.Africa
D.America
34.According to the passage, what has played an important role in spreading English around the world?
A.That governments have asked their people to learn it in school.
B.That English is the most beautiful language in the world.
C.That Europeans are willing to accept English as their language.
D.That people have to use English in their work.
35.What does the underlined word“rated”in the last paragraph mean?
A.Stood.
B.Agreed.
C.Considered.
D.Argued.

How to Be Grateful
Has your mother or best friend told you that you’re an ungrateful person? 36 Do you keep thinking about the things you don't have, instead of being thankful for
what you do have? If so, then you need to work on being a more grateful person.
37 This isn’t a religious(宗教的) thing. You don’t have to hold off
on noting everything you’re thankful for until Thanksgiving. Every Sunday, get a notebook and sit outside for fifteen minutes while making a list of all of the things
you're thankful for.
●Be grateful for your friendships 38 You may come to think that
your friends are kind and they’re just there, like the couch in your living room.
If you take your friends for granted for too long, then they will slowly make their
way out of your life.
●Be grateful to your family. Your family is an other thing you should be grateful
to. Your parents might have even been the people who tell you that you should be more grateful. 39 . Don’t let a day go by with out telling your family how much you love them.
● 40 Throughout history, imagine how many people have contributed
to where you are now. Realizing that you couldn’t be what you are now if it weren’t
for all of these people is an important step in being a grateful person.
A. Make a gratitude list every Sunday.
B. Friendships are very important in our life.
C. Be grateful for all of the good deeds done for your benefit.
D. Many people are guilty of taking their friends for granted.
E. Keep everything that you are grateful for in mind every day.
F. So, take the time to tell your family how much they mean to you.
G. Do you feel unable to appreciate the beauty, nature, and love that are all around you?
