Every year on my birthday, from the time I turned 12,a white gardenia（栀子花）was sent to my house. No card came with it．Calls to the flower shops were not helpful at all. After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender's name and was just very pleased with the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper.
But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be, Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged this imagining. She'd ask me if there was someone for whom I had done a special kindness. Perhaps it was the old man who I looked afier when he was ill. As a girl, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy.
One month before my graduation, my father died. I felt very sad and didn't want to go to the coming graduation dance at all. And I didn't care whether I had a new dress or not. But my mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable. In truth, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia-lovely, strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery.

Sports can help you keep fit and close to nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should realize that sport you choose might have great influence on the environment.
Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also lots of water. Besides, huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses （球场）in good condition. This causes major environmental changes. For example, in the dry places of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for (为...承担责任） serious water shortage(短缺) in some local areas.
There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes, and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also help you stay healthy. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and keep thin.
Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener than by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be "green gyms." They are better replacements(替代) for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership(会员身份)． And best of all, it's free.
52. Which of following does the author most probably support according to the passage?
A. Bicycling around the lake.
B. Car racing on the road.
C. Playing basketball in a gym.
D. Swimming in a sports center.
53. What does the phrase "resource-hungry" in this passage mean in Chinese?
A. 广为流行的.
B. 亲近自然的.
C.低成本的.
D. 耗费资源的.
54. The author uses power walking as an example mainly because
A. it is an outdoor sport.
B. it is loved by many people.
C. it uses fewer recourses.
D. it is supported by experts.
55. The author writes the passage to_______.
A. show us disadvantages of golf.
B. encourage us to take part in green sports.
C. explain the major sports influence of popular sports,
D. discuss different kinds of environment-friendly sport.

The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. One hundred thousand people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives. The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker(面包师)in Pudding Lane, The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window in the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery(房)into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Paul's and the Guildhall among them.
Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire. People threw their things into the
river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.
The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out. After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect(建筑师), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow; but he did build more than fifiy churches, among them new St Paul's.
The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past.
56. The fire began in_______.
A. a hotel.
B. the palace.
C. Pudding Lane.
D. Thames Street.
57. The underlined word "family" in the second paragraph means_______.
A. home.
B. children.
C. wife and husband.
D. wife and children.
58. It seems that the writer of the text was most sorry for the fact that ________.
A. some people lost their lives.
B. the birds in the sky were killed by the fire.
C. many famous buildings were destroyed.
D. the King's bakery was burned down.

Making friends is a skill. Like most skills, you can improve it if you are patient. If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take action. You must first go where there are people. You won't make friends staying home a 71 .

附：什么样的考试心态最好
大部分学生都不敢掉以轻心，因此会出现很多过度焦虑。

想要不出现太强的考试焦虑，那么最好的办法是，形成自己的掌控感。

1、首先，认真研究考试办法。

这一点对知识水平比较高的考生非常重要。

随着重复学习的次数增加，我们对知识的兴奋度会逐渐下降。

最后时刻，再去重复学习，对于很多学生已经意义不大，远不如多花些力气，来思考考试。

很多老师也会讲解考试的办法。

但是，老师给你的办法，不能很好地提高你对考试的掌控感，你要找到自己的一套明确的考试办法，才能最有效地提高你的掌控感。

有了这种掌控感，你不会再觉得，在如此关键性的考试面前，你是一只被检验、被考察甚至被宰割的绵羊。

2、其次，试着从考官的角度思考问题。

考官，是掌控考试的;考生，是被考试考验的。

如果你只把自己当成一个考生，你难免会惶惶不安，因为你觉得自己完全是个被摆布者。

如果从考官的角度去看考试，你就成了一名主动的参与者。

具体的做法就是，面对那些知识点，你想像你是一名考官，并考虑，你该用什么形式来考这个知识点。

高考前两个半月，我用这个办法梳理了一下所有课程，最后起到了匪夷所思的效果，令我在短短两个半月，从全班第19名升到了全班第一名。

当然，这有一个前提——考试范围内的知识点，我基本已完全掌握。

3、再次，适当思考一下考试后的事。

如觉得未来不可预测，我们必会焦虑。

那么，对未来做好预测，这种焦虑就会锐减。

这时要明白一点：考试是很重要，但只是人生的一个重要瞬间，所谓胜败也只是这一瞬间的胜败，它的确会带给我们很多，但它远不能决定我们一生的成败。
