The neighbour was deeply hurt. Later the woman responsible (负责) for spreading the gossip learned that it was completely untrue. She was very sorry and went to a wise old man to find out what she could do to repair the harm.“Go to the marketplace,” he said, “and buy a chicken, and have it killed, then on your way home, pluck (拔) its feathers and drop them one by one along the road.” Although surprised by this advice, the woman did what she was told.The next day the wise man said, “Now, go and collect all those feathers you dropped yesterday and bring them back to me.”The woman followed the same road, but she was so discouraged when she found the wind had blown all the feathers away. After searching for hours, she returned with only three in her hand.“You see,” said the old man, “it’s easy to drop them, but it’s impossible to get them back. So it is with gossip. It doesn’t take much to spread a gossip, but once you do, you can never completely undo the wrong.”26.

Because nobody likesthe idea of getting lost, I always preparebefore every trip. But what’s the bestnavigation tool, a Global PositioningSystem (GPS) or a good old map andcompass? Five of my friends and I hikedthrough the mountains on a trail I marked.One team of three carried a GPS, and the other team used a map and compass.It took the GPS team 3 hours and 11 minutes to get through the whole hike, however, it took the map and compass team only 2 hours and 49 minutes. The biggest problem the GPS team met was that they lost the satellite signal (卫星信号) in some places. With no map or compass, theyhad to walk around until they were in a place where the signal was good. The map and compass team was able to spot (认出) different landmarks, compare them to their maps and then use the compass to point them in the right direction.When I head out on my future hikes, I’m bringing a map, a compass and a GPS to show me the way.29. The writer prepares before every trip because he doesn’t _________.A. like the old map or compassB. know how to use the GPSC. want to get lost in mountainsD. want to get into the mountains alone30.

I turned it over. There, in faded ink, was a hand-written address. Immediately my mind traveled many years back.I was nine years old, walking down the cold and wet streets of Springfield, with a bag of magazines on my shoulder. That day, I came to the company finally, whose owner, Mr Rader, had always taken me there to ask his workers if they wanted any magazines.Shaking off the rain like a wet dog, I went into Mr Rader’s office. After a quick look he took me over to the fireplace. Noticing the hole in the top of my shoe, he said, “Come with me!” and pulled me into his car. We stopped in front of a shoe store. Inside, a salesman fitted me with thefinest pair of shoes I had ever seen. I felt about 10 feet tall when I got up in them. “We’d like a pair of new socks, too.” Mr Rader said.Back in his office, Mr Rader took out a card, wrote something on it and handed it to me. With tearful eyes, I read, “Do to others as you would have them do to you.” He said kindly, “Jimmy, I want you to know I love you.”I said good-bye, and for the first time I sensed a piece of hope that things would be better. With people like Mr Rader in the world, there was hope, kindness and love, and that would always make a difference.32. The writer went to Queen City Casket Company to _________.A. borrow some moneyB. ask Mr Rader for helpC. sell magazinesD. find a job there33.

Before you do anything, think about what others do to you.D. If you want others to do kind things to you, you’d better be kind to them.D“Sesame Street” has been called “the longest street in the world”. That is because the television program by that name can now be seen in many parts of the world. That program became one of American exports soon after it went on the air in New York in 1969.In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. The viewers include more than half the country’s pre-school children, from every kind of economic, racial (种族的), and geographical group.Although some educators object (反对) to some parts of the program, parents praise (赞扬) it highly. Many teachers also consider it a great help, though some teachers find that problems come out when first graders who have learnt from “Sesame Street” are in the same class with children who have not watched the program.Tests have shown that children from all racial, geographical, and economic backgrounds have benefited (受益) from watching it. Those who watch it five times a week learn more than occasional (偶尔的) viewers. In the US the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.The programs all use songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relationships. But there are some differences. For example, the Spanish program, produced in Mexico City, devotes more time to teaching whole words than to teaching separate (单独的) letters.Why has “Sesame Street” been so much more successful than other children’s shows? Many reasons have been suggested. People mention the educational theories (理论) of its creators, the support by the government and private businesses, and the skillful use of various TV tricks. Perhaps an equally important reason is that mothers watch it along with their children. This is partly because famous adult stars often appear on it. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.36. “Sesame Street” is actually _________.A. a street in the USB. a program for childrenC. a program for teachersD. a program for students37. Children who often watch the program _________.A. can have programs in schoolB. will find it a great helpC. will take no interest in their studiesD. needn’t go to school38. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. It is shown at different hours during the week.B. Famous adult stars often appear on it.C. This program has been on for less than forty years.D. Children learn and enjoy themselves while watching it.39. Why is “Sesame Street” so popular in the world?A. Because it is supported by the government and businesses.B. Because it uses different kinds of skillful tricks.C. Because mothers watch it along with their children.D. Because it makes every child watching it feel able to learn.40. The best title for this passage can be _________.A. Sesame StreetB. Educating ChildrenC. TV ProgramsD. A Great Success第二卷（主观题共45分）四、单词拼写（本大题共10分，每小题1分）(A) 根据句意，用括号内所给单词的适当形式填空1.
