三、完形填空（10*1=10分）
“You speak v ery good English.”
The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English. “You 31 very good English.” But the student answered, “ No, my E nglish is very poor.” The foreigner was quite32 at the answer, thinking he did n’t ma ke h imself 33 , or the student didn’t hear him clearly.
He s aid, “Yes, indeed, you speak it very well.” But the Chinese student still 34 saying “No”.35 the foreigner gave up and didn’t know what to say.
What’s wrong with the student’s answer?
It is because he didn’t accept a compliment(赞扬) as the American people do. He should say “Thank you” but not “No”. He actually understood what the American said. But he thought he should be modest.
In our country we think 36 modest is a virtue(美德) and showing off is a bad
behavior. But in the We st, if you are modest and say, “ No, 37 I can’t do it well,” then the others will take it for granted (理所当然) that you 38 cannot do it. If you often say “No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by39 . So in the West, one should always be confident(自信的). 40 self-confidence, he can’t go anywhere.

( )32. A. surprising B. surprised C. laughed D. laughing

( )37. A. I’m afraid B. I’m not sure C. I don’t mind D. I don’t know ( )38. A. hardly B. really C. badly D. luckily ( )39. A. another B. other C. the other D. others
( )40. A. With B. Without C. By D. Through
四、阅读理解(10*2=20分）
（A）
Mr. Jones opened a shop in Aston to sell writing paper, pencils and things like that. During the first month, very few people visited his shop. He sold little, and he could see that he was going to lose money.
One night, Mr. Jones sat by the fire and was worried after another very bad day. Suddenly he got an idea. He found a piece of wood and wrote the following notice on it in big letters:
“WHAT DO YOU THINK I GIVE AWAY PENCILS AND PAPER AND INK”
He put up the notice in front of the shop window before he went to bed. He slept better than usual that night.
The following day, many people came to the shop. Mr. Jones said good morning to them all happily and asked the first woman what she wanted.
She chose some writing paper and a pencil. As soon as he put them on her hands, she turned to leave the shop.
“That will be thirty cents(美分) please,” he said.
“Why?” she asked in surprise.
“That’s the price of the paper and the pencil.”
“But your notice says it’s free,” she replied.
“Oh no,” he said, “How can I make any money if everything is free?”
She took him outside and showed him the notice. “It is wrong, too,” she said. “There is the question mark after the word ‘think’.”
“There isn’t a question mark,” he said.
“But there should be one.”
“I’m afraid you’ve made a mistake,” Mr. Jones said. “You have read my notice in the wrong way.”
“Not at all,” said the woman. “It is quite easy to read. It says: What do you think? I give away pe ncils and paper and ink!”
“No,” Mr. Jones said. “You should read it like this: __42__ And the answer to the question is: Certainly not! So you really have to pay me thirty cents, you see.”
( )41. How did Mr. Jones most probably feel that night.
A. Confident.
B. Sorry.
C. Nervous (紧张).
D. Worried.
( )42. Which of the following sentences is the most suitable (适合) for the blank in the last paragraph?
A. What do you think? I give away pencils and paper and ink!
B. What? Do you think I give away pencils and paper and ink?
C. What do you think I give away? Pencils and paper and ink.
D. Ink and paper and pencils away give. I think you do what?
( )43.What can we infer(推断) from the story?
A. Mr. Jones agreed to let the shoppers get things for free that day.

（C）
Some people have to use public transport. Some of them dislike it while some love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport(公共交通).
British people use trains a lot. This is especially so for people who are travelling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a very high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to get to Paris. It is faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and lowly for many reasons, such as speed limits(速度限制) and traffic jams. However, when you are travelling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam for a train.
Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of travelling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track.
What is more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services(服务) for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs (电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phones. ( )47. The main idea of the passage is that ________.
A. British people enjoy public transport
B. it's fast to travel from London to Paris
C. trains in Britain provide fine services for their users
D. trains are a good form of public transport for Londoners
( )48. In traffic jams on the road, ________.
A. drivers can drive fast
B. drivers can drive carelessly
C. cars are not moving fast
D. cars will stop working
( )49. Londoners often travel by train because trains are ________.
A. old and slow
B. quick, clean and comfortable
C. fine and important
D. fast, safe and comfortable
( )50. What can we know from the passage?
A. We can travel from London to Paris in less than 2 hours.
B. We can do our work with personal computers on the train.
C. We have to wait till we get off the train in order to have some food.
D. The trains are only checked for quality reasons before they are used

Dear Mr. Frank,
I want to apply for the position of the manager of the DIY Club in our school.
The school life here is as interesting as that in Britain. My new classmates are humorous and generous. Every day, we have enough time for after-school activities.
I study hard and do well in science, and I’m kind to people. I’m willing to offer others help.
DIY is one of my hobbies. I often make sandwiches myself, repair computers, fix the bike and so on. Also I’m interested in making presents myself. I think it’s
important for teenagers to be able to do things on our own.
I can’t wait to join the club. Please trust me that I can make an excellent leader of this club!
Yours sincerely,
Anne。
