Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人).I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing, “This is Mrs. Tan.”And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he don’t send me cheek, already t wo week late.”And then, in perfect English I said, “I’m getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived. ”Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss. ” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate any more excuse. If I don’t receive thecheck immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week. ”The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.61. Why was the author’s mother poorly serv ed?A. She was unable to speak good English.B. She was often misunderstood.C. She was not clearly heard.D. She was not very polite.62. From Paragraph 2, we know that the author was __________.A. good at pretendingB. rude to the stockbrokerC. ready to help her motherD. unwilling to phone for her mother63. After the author made the phone call, ___________.A. they forgave the stockbrokerB. they failed to get the checkC. they went to New York immediatelyD. they spoke to their boss at once64. What does the author think of her mother’s English now?A. It confuses her.B. It embarrasses her.C. It helps her understand the world.D. It helps her tolerate rude people.65. We can inter from the passage that Chinese English __________.A. is clear and natural to non-native speakersB. is vivid and direct to non-native speakersC. has a very bad reputation in AmericaD. may bring inconvenience in AmericaBThere are two types of people in the world. Although they have an equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, while the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons and events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are happy fix their attention on the convenience of things. They enjoy all cheerful things. Those who are unhappy think and speak only of unpleasant things. Through their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind is found in nature, such unhappy people should be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation（模仿）. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it can be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects.Although this attitude is mainly an act of the imagination, it has serious results since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. If such people aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone speak a word in favor of their hopes. If they are criticized, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join in criticizing their wrong doings. So they should change this bad habit and stop worrying needlessly about themselves andothers. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, they will have a disagreeable time, especially when someone becomes mixed up in their quarrels.66. How does the writer tell the happy from the unhappy?A. According to their degree of health.B. According to their wealth.C. According to their attitudes to the same thing.D. According to their habits.67. The phrase “sour the pleasure of society” in paragraph2 probably means “________”.A. have a good attitude towards social lifeB. make others unhappyC. tend to blame others openlyD. enjoy the pleasure of life68. We can conclude from the passage that ________.A. we should pity all unhappy peopleB. unhappy people are dangerous to social lifeC. people can get rid of the habit of unhappinessD. unhappy people can not understand happy people69. If such unhappy people insist on keeping the habit, the author suggests that people should________.A. not have any communication with themB. show no respect for themC. persuade them to recognize the bad effects of their habitsD. quarrel with them until they realize their mistakes70. In this passage, the writer mainly ________.A. describes two types of peopleB. laughs at unhappy peopleC. offers advice for unhappy peopleD. tells people how to be happy in lifeCFor this generation of American young people, the future doesn’t look hopeful. Compared to the college graduates, the situation for their less-educated peers is far worse, according to a report from the John J. Heldrich Center for Workforce Development at Rutgers University.The data come from a national survey of high school graduates who are not enrolled in college full-time. For this group, finding work that pays a living wage and offers some sense of security has been difficult.“I want to earn more money, and I really don’t like what I do right now,” said Walter Walden, 24, of Wdnatchee, Washington, one of the lucky members of this group who has got a full-time job, in this case, at a restaurant. “I have to go back to school.” He now lives with his mother so he can take nursing classes part-time.Americans who graduated from high school just before the economy downturn – in this report, defined as 2006-2008 –were having trouble making ends meet. Just 37 percent were employed full-time and another 23 percent were working part-time, usually because they couldn’t find full-time work.But among those who graduated after the financial crisis, the numbers are far worse: only 16 percent of the classes of 2009-2011 had full-time jobs. An additional 22 percent were working part-time, and most of them wanted full-time work.Despite the continuing national conversation about whether college is worth it, given the debt burden it brings, most high school graduates without college degrees said they believed they would be unable to get good jobs without more education.“If I ever want to find a better job,” said Bethany McClour, 21, a part-time worker at the Children’s Place clothing store in Medfore, Ore., “more education is definitely important.”Getting more education is challenging not only because of the cost; others surveyed said college was also out of reach because of some family responsibilities. Many teenagers have to leave school early to support their families so as to lessen their parents’ burdens and make it possible for th eir younger siblings to receive better education. For them, college education is something beyond their reach.71. According to the survey, _____ .A. this generation of college graduates have little difficulty finding full-time jobsB. only college graduates can sometimes find full-time jobsC. high school graduates before the financial crisis sometimes can’t cover their life expensesD. high school graduates after the financial crisis have better job opportunities than before72. The main purpose of the passage is to_____.A. encourage high school graduates to continue college educationB. criticize the present college education system in the USC. urge the US government to create more job opportunities for young peopleD. show the situation of employment for American high school graduates73. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _____.A. many teenagers leave school early in order to earn more moneyB. education doesn’t always play an important part in landing a good jobC. it is actually impossible for some high school graduates to go to collegeD. college education is challenging because not everyone can graduate with honors74. What can be the best title for the passage?A. More young Americans out of school are also out of work.B. The more e ducation you’ve received, the better job you’ll get.C. Is college education worth it?D. High school graduates are going back to school.75. Which best describes the writer’s tone in the passage?A. Concerned.B. Enthusiastic.C. Doubtful.D. Angry.DA recent study, while showing a generally positive attitude toward science, also suggests a widespread worry that it may be "running out of control". This idea is dangerous.Science can be a force for evil as well as for good. Its applications can be used either way, depending on our decisions. The decisions we make, personally or collectively, will determine the consequences of science. But here is a real danger. Science is advancing so fast and is so strongly influenced by businesses that we are likely to believe whatever decisions we come to will make little difference. And, rather than fighting for the best possible policies, we may step back and do nothing.Some people go even further. They say that despite the moral and legal objections, whatever is scientifically possible will be done—somewhere, sometime. They believe that science will get out of control in the end. This belief is dangerous too, because it fuels a sense of hopelessness and discourages them from making efforts to build a safer world.In our interconnected world, the lack of agreement in and out of the world of science can lead to the failure to control the use of science. Without a common understanding, the challenges of"controlling" science in this century will be really tough. Take human cloning for example. Despite the general agreement among scientists on its possible huge effects on traditional moral values, some countries still push ahead with the research and development of its related techniques. The consequences are hard to predict.Therefore, discussions on how science is applied should be extended far beyond scientific societies. Only through the united efforts of people with hope, can we be fully safe against the misuse of science and can science best serve mankind in the future.76. What can we conclude from the recent study?A. People think highly of science.B. People hold mixed opinions about science.C. Science is getting dangerously out of control.D. Science is used for both good and bad purposes.77. According to the passage, what will happen if we hold that science is getting beyond control?A. The development of science will hopelessly slow down.B. People will fight for the best possible policies.C. The public will lose faith in bringing about a bright future.D. People will work more actively to put science under control.78. What does the underlined word “objection” in paragraph3 probably mean?A. respectB. disagreementC. supportD. concept79. The discussion should reach beyond scientific societies because _____.A. scientists have failed to predict the consequencesB. the ties between different areas need strengtheningC. united efforts are necessary for the development of scienceD. people need to work together to prevent the bad use of science80. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Science and its applications bring us more dangers than benefits.B. Science is strongly influenced by business.C. Mankind can completely take control of science with their efforts.D. The future of science won’t be influenced by the dangerous ideas.V. 单词拼写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）1.
