plant known to mankind, or at least known in my neighborhood.One tiny 9-inch plant, bought 36 ＄1.25 in the spring, has already 37 over much of my rose bed, covering much of other plants, and is 38 on its way to the front door.Roses require a good 39 of care, and if it weren’t the 40 they give, it wouldn’t be worth the work．41 it is, I have a garden full of sweet-smelling roses for 42 of the year．Bushes must be pruned [剪枝]in early spring, leaving ugly woody branches until the new 43 appears a few weeks later．It was the space available in the garden 44 led me into planting just one little tomato plant．A big mistake.Soil conditions made just perfect for roses 45 to be even more perfect for tomatoes．The daily watering coupled with[加上] 46 sun and regular fertilizing[施肥]have turned the little plant into a tall 47 .The cage[笼状护栏] I placed around it as the plant grew has long since 48 under the thick leaves.Now the task I 49 in harvesting the fruit is twofold [双重的]:First, I have to find the red ones 50 the leaves, which means I 51 have to stand on my head, and once found I have to 52 down and under, pick the tomatoes and withdrawn[缩回]my full fist without dropping the prize so dearly won．I found two full-blown white roses completely hidden as I picked tomatoes in June．But they were weak and the leaves already yellow for 53 of light.Here I am faced with a painful small decision: To 54 a wonderful and productive tomato plant that offers up between ten and twenty ripe sweet tomatoes each day or say good-bye to several expensive and 55 roses．Like Scarlet in Gone With the Wind, I’ll think about that tomorrow.36．A．for B．with C．at D．by37．A．got B．taken C．pulled D．turned38．A．very B．highly C．well D．straightly39．A．lot B．number C．plenty D．deal40．A．puzzle B．pleasure

D．troubled四、阅读理解（20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）AEach Indian（印第安人）was supposed to keep his birth name until he was old enough to earn one for himself．But his playmates（游戏伙伴）would always give him a name of their own．No matter what his parents called him, his childhood friends would use the name they had chosen．Often it was not pleasing, such as Bow Legs or Bad Boy．But sometimes a name fit so well that the youngster found it difficult to shake it off．If he could not earn a better one from a war later, he could be stuck with a name like Bow Legs for the rest of his life.The Indian earned his real name when he was old enough for his first fight against the enemy．His life name depended on how he acted during this first battle．When he returned from the war, the whole tribe would gather and observe the ceremony in which he would be given his name by the chief．If he had done well, he would get a good name．Otherwise he might be called Crazy Wolf or Man-Afraid-Of-a-Horse．So an Indian’s name told his record or described the kind of man be was.A man was given many chances to improve his name, however．If in a later battle he was brave in fighting against the enemy, he was given a batter name．Some of our great fighters had as many as twelve names—all good and each better than the last.An Indian’s names belonged to him for the rest of his life．No one else could use them．Even he himself could not give them away because names were assigned by the tribe, not the family．So no man could pass on his name unless the chief and the tribe asked him to do so.Sometimes an Indian would be asked to give his name to a son who had performed a noticeable deed．I know of only three of four times when this happened．It is the rarest honor for a person—the honor of assuming（承担）his father’s name. 56．An Indian could be given the second name by__________.A．his father B．the enemyC．the chief of the tribe D．his childhood friends57．The greatest honor an Indian could earn was____________.A．a victory in his first battle against the enemyB．a name given by the chiefC．a ceremony to get his real nameD．the right to use his father’s name58．If an Indian had more than ten names, it meant that____________.A．many people in the tribe liked him B．he was a great fighterC．he had a lot of friends D．he had fought in fewer than ten battles59．Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage?A．The names given by the playmates of an Indian were usually not pleasantB．The life name of an Indian was earned in battleC．An Indian could throw away his birth name when he was old enough to earn one for himself.D．The Indians themselves were not allowed to give their names away.BHere are six questions about your approach to life．T ry to answer them as honestly as you can.Are you hard driving and competitive?Are you usually pressed for time?Do you want to control others?Do you have a strong need to do better than others in most things?Do you eat too quickly?Do you get upset when you have to wait for anything?If you have answered“yes”to most of these questions , then I can make a few predictions（预测）about you, based on a recent eight-year study of nearly two thousand people who live the way that you do.You likely find that life is full of challenges and you often need to keep two of more projects moving at the same time．The chances are that you have been to college, that you have a management job and that you bring work home at night．You think that you put more effort into your job than many of the people you work with, and you certainly take your work more seriously than most of them．You get angry easily, and if someone is being long-winded（拐弯抹角的），you help them get to the point．You also have trouble finding the time to get your hair cut.And there’s one other thing．You are about twice as likely to have a heart attack as someone who takes a more easygoing （心平气和的）approach to life.The beginnings of your hard-driving behavior go right back to childhood．In school you got recognition and perhaps prizes for being quick and bright, for being an achiever, for competing with others and for winning．You likely went on from school to get a series of increasingly better jobs against pretty stiff competition．They were jobs where you had to care about the results, where you constantly had to push things forward and get things done．In your present job you also feel some conflict（冲突）, either with time or with other people．Some of those you work with don’t seem able to understand the simplest ideas, and they often put a brake（约束）on what you’re trying to achieve．The conflict may not take place every day．You pride yourself on being able to keep the lid on．But it’s always there, under the surface.60．It can be concluded from the last paragraph that this hard-driving character__________.A．has been developed since childhood B．may be changed by your experiencesC．will place no influence on your work D．enables you to be a successful person61．Which of the following words is not appropriate（适合的）to describe this type of people?A．Competitive B．Nervous C．Easygoing D．Ambitious62．What is implied in the last sentence?A．The lid will always remain in placeB．The conflict may occur any momentC．The situation is always under your controlD．You are able to solve the problem63．The main idea of the passage is__________.A．why competitive people are more likely to succeed in their careerB．how people can relax themselvesC．why hard-driving people are likely to have a heart attackD．how personality affects your attitude toward lifeCThe smart job-seeker needs to get rid of several standard myths（不实之事）about interviewing before starting to pound the pavement（四处奔走）looking for a job．What follows is a list of some of these untruths and some tips to help you do your best at your next interview.Myth 1：The aim of interviewing is to obtain a job offerOnly half true．The real aim of an interview is to obtain the job you want．That often means rejecting job offers you don’t want! Incompetent（不能胜任的）job-seekers, however, become so used to accommodating（适应）employers’ expectations that they often easily qualify for jobs they don’t want．So, before you do back-flips for an employer, be sure you want the job.Myth 2：Always please the interviewerNot true．Try to please yourself．Giving answers that you think will suit a potential employer, losing touch with your own feelings (in order to get in touch with some other person’s feelings) and, in general, practicing an awful policy of appeasement （姑息）are certain to keep you from success and progress．Of course, don’t be hostile—nobody wants to hire someone hostile．But there is plainly a middle ground between being too ingratiating（讨好的）and being hostile．An effective interview （whether you are offered the job or not）is like an exciting encounter（相遇）in conversation with your neighbor on an airplane.Myth 3：Try to control the interviewNobody“controls”an interview—neither you nor the interviewer—although one or both parties often try．When somebody tries to control us, we resent（憎恶）it．When we try to control somebody, they resent us．Remember, you can’t control what employers think of you, just as they can’t control what you think of them．So hang loose when interviewing; never dominate（支配）the interview.Myth 4：Don’t disagree with the interviewerAnother silly myth．If you don’t disagree at times, you become, in effect, a“yes”man or woman．Don’t be afraid to disagree with your interviewer—in a pleasant and pleasing way．And don’t hesitate to change your mind．The worst that could happen would be that the interviewer thinks,“There’s a person with an open mind!”The conventional wisdom says（人们普遍认为）“be yourself,”true enough．But how many people can be themselves if they do n’t feel free to disagree?64．An effective interview should be one during which___________.A．both interviewer and interviewee try to praise each otherB．the job-seeker succeeds in living up to the expectation of the employerC．two sides have a good exchange of viewsD．the interviewee obtains the expected job offer65．If a job-seeker tries to control the interview,____________.A．he is going to win a job offerB．the interviewer will hire himC．both parties are satisfied with each otherD．it is unlikely for him to attain his goal66．All of the following statements are true except that___________.A．a good interview is like an exciting conversationB．a job-seeker should always agree with the interviewerC．one doesn’t have to cater to（迎合）his interviewer’s tasteD．it is important to be oneself during an interview67．The main idea of the passage is___________.A．the way to think about and act in a job interviewB．don’t be respectful of your interviewerC．a good interview allows an interviewer to be himselfD．why an interview can develop into an exciting conversationDHuman migrations（移居国外）within recorded history have transformed the entire character of lands and continents and the composition（组成）of their racial, ethnic and language groups．The map of Europe, for example, is the product of several major early migrations involving the Germanic people, the Slavs, and the Turks．The overseas migration of Europeans during this period totaled about 60 million people.The largest migration in history has been called the Great Atlantic Migration from Europe to North America, the first major wave of which began in the 1840s with mass movements from Ireland and Germany．In the 1880s a second and larger wavedeveloped from eastern and southern Europe; between 1880 and 1910 some 17 million Europeans entered the United States．The total number of Europeans reaching the United States amounted to 37 million between 1820 and 1980．From 1801 to 1914 about 7.5 million people moved from European to Asiatic Russia (i.e．,Siberia), and between World Wars I and II about 6 million more chose to move there, not counting the vast number of deportees(被驱逐出境者) who were forced to go to Siberia’s labor camps．Since World War II the largest migrations have involved groups from developing countries moving to the industrialized nations．Some 13 million people moved across borders to become permanent residents of Western Europe from the 1960s through the 1980s, and more than 10 million permanent immigrants were admitted legally to the United States in that same period, with illegal immigration adding several millions more.Slave migrations and mass expulsions also have been part of human history for thousands of years．The largest slave migrations were probably those compelled（强迫）by European slave traders operating in Africa from the 16th to the 19th century; perhaps 20 million slaves were taken to the Americas, though a large number died in terrible conditions of the trip across the Atlantic Ocean．The largest mass expulsions（驱逐）have probably been those imposed（强加）by Nazi Germany, which deported 7 to 8 million persons during World WarⅡ(1939—45)．The major trend in internal migration during the 20th century has been the movement from rural to urban areas．As a consequence, urban growth since World WarⅡhas been very rapid in much of the world, particularly in developing countries.68．The following statements are true EXCEPT____________.A．the largest mass expulsions have been those imposed by Nazi Germany.B．the largest slave migrations were compelled by European slave tradersC．the largest migration in history has been called the Great Atlantic MigratioD．between World War I andⅡ,about 6 million people migrated to Europe.69．How many people moved across borders to become permanent residents of Western Europe from the 1960s through the 1980s?A．More than 10 million B．Some 13 millionC．17 million D．20 million70．Where did the people of the first major wave of the Great Atlantic Migration which began in the 1840s come from?A．From England and Germany B．From Iceland and GermanyC．From Ireland and Germany D．From Ireland and France71．What has been the trend of migration during the 20th century?A．The movement from rural to urban areasB．The movement from urban to rural areasC．The movement from Europe to AmericaD．The movement from Africa to AmericaEEvery day, we are influenced by mass media．Although some critics of the media claim that these means of communication are used mostly to control our thinking and get us to buy products we don’t need, they agree that the media also contributes to keeping people informed．In other words, while risks do exist, the benefits of the media are far more than the disadvantages．Most of the messages are designed either to inform or entertain—and neither of these goals can be considered risky or harmful.If consumers of the media could be taught at an early age to examine messages critically, i.e．, to think carefully about what is being communicated—they would be able to take advantage of the information and enjoy the entertainment without being hurt by it．The key to critical thinking is recognizing the motives of the news item of writers, the advertisers, and so on．Are both sides of the issue being presented? Have enough facts about the product being advertised been presented?Furthermore, citizens need the opportunity to hear news, opinions, and public affairs．Information about current events is presented in depth on publicly funded TV channels and radio stations as well as in newspapers．In addition, the public broadcasting media can help viewers and listeners to complete their education．Recent immigrants（移民）, for example, can improve their command of English through TV and radio, and in addition, some college courses are taught on educational television.Another recognized advantage of the media is that it gives people information they need for their daily lives: weather and traffic reports are good examples．While commercials（商业广告）and advertising do not necessarily present accurate information, they do make people aware of the availability of products that could improve their lives．In addition, they create a larger demand for some items, which may lead to a fall in their price.While the media can be a valuable means of educating the public, when most people turn on the TV set or the radio, they want to be entertained．As a result most programming consists of movies, plays, music, humorous shows, game shows, and sports events．Some of these offerings are of low quality, but on the other hand, many are fun to watch and interestingly written and well presented.Even though the mass media can be misused, most of its effects are positive．We are all influenced by television, and radio as well as movies, magazines and newspapers．If we are careful to examine their message critically they can all be of benefit to our lives.72．According to the author, the two main purposes of mass media are to__________.A．control our thinking and get us to buy useless productsB．provide people with information and entertainmentC．make people aware of the availability of products and create a large demand for some itemsD．express the views of the public and help improve recent immigrants’ English73．The author feels that consumers of the mass media should be taught at an early age to ________.A．bring their imagination into full play when watching programs of low qualityB．buy products advertised in commercials so that the demand increasesC．turn off the TV set when a ridiculous program comes onD．think critically about the messages brought to them74．It can be learned from paragraph 3 that citizens will be in a better position to express their views and make their choices if they are__________.A．highly educated through TV and radioB．well protected by the governmentC．highly paid by their employersD．well informed by the media75．Which of the following statements is true according to the text?A．The mass media offers information needed in our daily lives.B．Publicly funded broadcasting does not present information about current wants in depth.C．Information provided by commercials and advertising is always accurate.D．Many TV and radio programs are not interesting.五、对话填空[拼写单词]（10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）Ming-bai: How are you getting along with your English?Hu-tu: No b 76 than ever before.Ming-bai: How come? It is said that you have been working hard and have made some progress.Hu-tu: But the problem is, only under the g 77 of my tutor can I be advancing g 78 (or little by little)．I can’t concentrate on my homework without being tutored.Ming-bai: No wonder．You should believe in yourself．You should develop the ability to teach yourself English．As you know, it is by working hard on his own that your classmate Cheng Zhang-qi was a 79 into a key university in Senior 2．We should learn from him.Hu-tu: That is right．Much of the blame for my disability to study English goes on my parents．They are always f 80 me all sorts of tutors to help me with all my subjects.Ming-bai: What a pity! You should convince them that you can work well by yourself and ask your headmaster to criticize your parents.Hu-tu: Thank you for your tips.Ming-bai: I am told that you are good at English grammar.Hu-tu: But I am poor in memorizing words and I wonder how to e 81 my vocabulary．Ming-bai: That is because you are forced to be instructed by your tutor and so have not enough time to absorb and digest knowledge, including words and expressions.Hu-tu: I see．Words and expressions are hard to remember and especially English u 82 is hard to master．For instance,I don’t know how to apply “resemble” and “look like”.Ming-bai: Oh, they d 83 in structure but they are the same in meaning．The former is a transitive verb and the latter is a verb phrase.Hu-tu: Thank you for your e 84 ．Now I can distinguish between them．How on earth do you improve your English? Ming-bai: We should read and listen to some English readers and accumulate our words day by day．If so, you will be able to c85 your feelings and ideas in English in time.Hu-tu: Thank you．I will study the way you have just mentioned.六、书面表达你的邻居最近写信向你抱怨从你房里传出的噪音。
