I ’m an operating engineer ，running crane in New York City . I was in the countryside, playing golf when we got the call that a plane had 36 the World Trade Centre. We checked out of
the hotel immediately and started 37 our way downtown. When I got home, I called the rescue center and they told me to come 38 and get on the 39 list.
The next morning I went down to the 40 at about 5 A.M., and four hours later I 41 the call to come down to West Street. I called my wife and told her not to 42 me, and that I would stay in 43 with her . I took the subway . It stopped at West Fourth Street, so I had to 44 the rest of the way .
And somewhere in there I became 45 that I was going into something I 46 . I once worked there in 1966 for the 47 of the World Trade Centre. On halfway on September 12, I was frightened to see the World Trade Centre was a huge pile,
maybe ten 48 tall. And it was burning. I started to ask 49 in which my crane might be 50 a whistle blew suddenly warning us of some danger. I saw people running away and I really didn’t know what to do. So I did the same, too. It was as if they had 51 the bulls go in Spain and we were running through the street. People falling down, people 52 them up as they came by, and carrying them, just to get them out of the way, because something was extremely 53 . I didn’t even look back. We stopped running when we got to the Battery T unnel, and I caught my 54 and said, “Oh, my God, I’m going to 55 .〞
Then I settled down a little bit, thinking about what we should do next. As we started again we knocked into a fire chief officer and we asked, “What can we do to help you?〞

第三局部：阅读理解〔一共20小题；每一小题2分，满分是40分〕
阅读以下短文，从每一小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项里面选出最正确选项，并在答题
卡上将该项涂黑。

A
Rising above the names
I was shopping in the supermarket when I heard a young voice.
“Mom, come here! There’s this lady here my size!〞
The mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to apologize.
I smiled and told her, “It’s okay.〞Then I talked to the boy, “Hi, I’m Darryl Kramer. How are you?〞
He studied me from head to toe, and asked, “Are you a little mommy?〞
“Yes, I have a son,〞I answered.
“Why are yo u so little?〞he asked.
“It’s the way I was born,〞I said. “Some people are little. Some are tall. I’m just not going to grow any bigger.〞After I answered his other questions, I shook the boy’s hand, and left.
My life as a little person is filled with stories like that. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents.
It takes only one glance to see my uniqueness. I stand three feet nine inches tall. I was born an achondroplasia dwarf〔侏儒〕. Despite this, I did all the things other kids did when I was growing up.
I didn’t realize how short I was until I started school. Some kids picked on me, calling me names. Then I knew. I began to hate the first day of school each year. New students would always stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs.
But I learned to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life. I decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. What I lacked in height, I made up for in personality.
I’m 47 now, and the stares have not diminished as I’ve grown older. People are amazed when they see me driving. I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I remind myself, “Look what else I have — a great family, nice friends.〞
It’s the children’s que stions that make my life special. I enjoy answering their questions. My hope is that I will encourage them to accept their peers (a person of the same age, class, position, etc.) , whatever size and shape they come in, and treat them with respect.
56. Why did the mother apologize to the author?
A. Because the boy ran into the author.
B. Because the boy laughed at the author.
C. Because the boy said the author was fatter than him.
D. Because the mother thought the boy’s words had hurt the author.
57. When did the author realize that she was too short?
A. When she grew up.
B. When she was 47 years old.
C. When she began to go to school.
D. When she met the boy in the supermarket.
58. Which of the following word can best replace the unde rlined word “diminished〞?
A. dismissed
B. increased
C. decreased
D. discriminated
59. How does the author feel about people’s stares?
A. Angry.
B. Calm.
C. Painful.
D. Discouraged.

The United States federal government had two young men in the state of T ennessee arrested on October 22 on unknown charges.
In court documents published on Monday, it came to light that the men had discussed attacking an African-American school and killing 14 of them.
Another crime was about planning to murder Presidential candidate Barack Obama. According to their affidavits〔口供〕, the suspects’ “final act of violence〞would be when they attacked Obama while wearing white suits and top hats and driving “their vehicle as fast as they could toward Obama shooting at him from the windows.〞The two suspects are Paul Schlesselman, 18, of West Helena, Arkansas and Daniel Cowart, 20, of Bells, T ennessee. According to the court papers, they met last month over the Internet through a friend. Schlesselman and Cowart are believ ed to share “very strong views〞about White Power.
Schlesselman listed “being racist〞as his occupation on his MySpace page. He further wrote: “I’m white. I’m proud. I get angry. I like guns.〞
Cowart also had a MySpace page on which photos of guns were presented under a heading of “My Guns〞. On his page he wrote, “Better to die quick fighting on your feet than to live forever begging on your knees.〞
Some have questioned the pair’s ability to carry out the charged pl an, but authorities have been very concerned about Obama as the first black presidential candidate from a major party.
“We honestly don’t know if they had the ability or the skill to carry out the kind of plan that they talked about,〞said Malcolm Wiley, of the United States Secret Service in an interview with The New York Times. “But we take any threat seriously no matter how big or how small it is.〞
Cowart and Schlesselman are scheduled to appear before a judge on Thursday.
60. The passage is mainly about _________.
A. Americans’ attitudes towards Barack Obama
B. two young men planning to commit violence
C. the violence in the United States
D. the disadvantages of the Internet
61. From the passage, we can know that the two young men________.
A. shot 14 students in an African-American school
B. came from the state of Tennessee
C. were proud of Barack Obama
D. have not been sentenced yet
62. Which of the following shows the right order of the events?
a. The two suspects were arrested.
b. The two suspects will be tried in the court.
c. Cowart set up his MySpace page on the Internet.
d. Malcolm Wiley was interviewed by The New York Times.
A. a; b; c; d
B. d; c; b; a
C. c; a; d; b
D. c; a; b; d
63. What can we infer from the news?
A. The two young men strongly believed that the president should be a white man.
B. Most of the white people in the United States don’t like Barack Obama.
C. The two young men planned to shoot President Barack Obama.
D. The two young men were innocent in fact.

Like distance runners on a measured course, all of us will move through time in a roughly predictable pattern.
In the first stage of our lives, we develop and grow, reaching toward the top of physical vitality (energy).
After we grow up, however, the body begins a process of gradually wearing out.
A new awareness of physical fitness may help lengthen our years of health and vitality, yet nothing we do will work to stop the unavoidable force of aging.
Most of the changes of aging take place deep inside the body. The lungs become less able to take in oxygen. Powerful muscles gradually lose their strength. The heart loses power and pumps less blood. Bones grow easier to break.
Finally, we meet a stress, a stress that is greater than our physical resistance. Often, it is only a minor accident or chance infection (a disease caused by virus), but this time, it brings life to an end.
In 1932, a classic experiment nearly doubled the lifetime of rats, simply by cutting back the calories (unit for measuring the energy value of food) in their diet. The reason for the effect was then unknown.
T oday, at the university of California at Berkley, Dr. Paul Seagle has also greatly lengthened the normal lifetime of rats. The result was achieved through a special protein (蛋白质) limited diet, which had a great effect on the chemistry of the brain. Seagle showed that within the brain, specific chemicals control many of the signals that influence aging. By changing that chemical balance, the clock of aging can be reset.
For the first time, the mystery (something that is difficult to understand or to explain) of why we age is being seriously challenged. Scientists in many fields are now making striking and far-reaching discoveries.
An average lifetime lasts 75 years, yet in each of us lies a potential for a longer life. If we could keep the vitality and resistance to disease that we have at age twenty, we would live for 800 years.
68. What does the underlined word “it〞refer to?
A. Physical vitality.
B. Stress.
C. Aging.
D.Physical resistance.
69. The author believes the following EXCEPT that_________.
A. human’s life pattern is predictable
B. physical fitness can’t stop the force of aging
C. human’s lifetime will last longer than 75 years
D. all of the changes of aging take place deep inside the body
70. How did Dr. Paul Seagle lengthen the lifetime of rats in his experiment?
A. By limiting the protein in their diet.
B. By cutting the calories in their diet
C. By resetting their clock of aging
D. By keeping their physical fitness
71. What is probably the best title for the article?
A. Two Great Experiments
B. The Mystery of Human Life
C. Ways to lengthen Human Life
D. The Breakthrough in the Study of Aging

Census figures (调查数据) published last Friday indicate that the number of women in management jobs rose by 95% between 1980 and 1990. Most evidence shows that women are still in the lowest class of management and in the lowest-paying industries.
I first noticed that girls were different from boys when I was about 4 years old. No experiences either in my personal life or in my business life have caused me to change my opinion. Throughout my adult life, however, I have had to evaluate again and again these differences between men and women and how they affect the way men and women relate to one another and to the environment in which they work. Working with women has given me deep understanding I would never have gained in any other way.
Women are working at a decided disadvantage in the business world created by men to make things comfortable for men. To me, this means men often understand the rules without having to be taught or even having to think about them. It is not so easy for women. If I may fall back on typically male sports terms, women have had to learn both the game and the game plan at the same time.
At least in my own observation, women in business tend to be more honest than men.
A direct question to a woman often results in a direct response. This quality makes it more difficult for women to “yes〞an employer. It also makes women more trustworthy than the men who often can’t, or won’t, give a straight answer to a question. Women are also more open than men about their feelings, their ambitions, and everyday situations in the office. This makes them easier to be hurt than men. Traditionally, women in business have been more severely judged than men. They have had to be better in a job than a man to get ahead.
72. What is this passage mainly about?
A. the unfair treatment the working women suffering in business
B. the differences between working men and women
C. the qualities of the working men and women
D. the author’s pity on the working women
73. The author mentions the “sports terms〞to show that __________.
A. women are more diligent than men
B. women are often looked down upon by men
C. women are slower in learning new things than men
D. men always make things comfortable for themselves
74. How many good qualities of women are mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. Two.
B. Three.
C. Four.
D. Five.
75. Which of the following will most probably be the first sentence of the fifth paragraph?
A. For example, I have interviewed many people for the job of advertising salesperson.
B. Another difference between working men and women is that men take more chances.
C. Of all the differences that I have noticed, one in particular stands out.
D. On the other hand, men also enjoy more rights than women.

Recently our school has conducted a survey among the students about how parents
treat their children.
According to Chart 1, three behaviors from parents are considered most welcome among the students. 33.5% of the students feel happy that their parents trust them, laying a basic foundation for family communication. 31.7% are content to be in the equal position with their parents when they are talking with each other. What’s more, 22.7% feel happy to receive constant praise or encouragement from their parents.
As is shown in Chart 2, 32% of the students think their parents expect too much of them, especially in their studies, putting great pressure on them. While all parents love their children and want the best for them, with too much pressure, however, some children will feel they have failed if they are not accepted at a top school or university.
I think parents should have practical expectations for their children. This way, the children will feel more confident about themselves and really make a difference in the future.

One possible version
In the picture, two goats are tied to each other with a rope. They both see some grass in opposite directions, and try to pull to get their own food. They are unsuccessful, because the rope is too short to allow them to eat the food at the same time.
The picture is trying to tell us that cooperation is better than conflict. Both of the goats want their food at the same time, which has formed a conflict between them. However, if they decide to cooperate and eat the grass on the left first, and then the grass on the right, they will both be able to get their food. Thus things will turn into a
“win-win〞situation.
Therefore, remember that sometimes our goal is not that we get something and the other gets nothing, but that all people get what they want. Cooperation will benefit everyone.
