Sometimes it can be difficult to homeschool（进行家庭教育）on your own. That's why it's 1 to connect or have a support group that will help you succeed in homeschooling.The first step is to find a(n) 2 that has similar goals and ideas as you. Maybe they homeschool in the same way, use the same curriculum or have the same ages of students.It's important to make sure that you decide what you're looking for out of a support group and then you can go and 3 for it using the Internet or local organization. Do you want your group to just support homeschool families and parents or do you 4 want to hold classes? Are you organizing around a 5 event like field trips, a topic, or classes themselves?If your homeschool support group is just for parents, consider advertising 6 . Getting together a group of homeschooling parents can really help you to 7 ideas that will help improve your homeschool program and can help you succeed in the long run. If you're going to include 8 in your support group, make sure to organize them by 9 level so they're with other students of the same age.If you want to include classes as a part of your homeschool group, you need todecide what type of 10 you'll offer, enrichment, art, athletic, or even core curriculum. Identify a teacher early on and a leader. You don't want to be the 11 leader in your homeschool group. You want to find people that you can trust to 12 alongside you.Communication is the key. You want to set up an email group, a phone chain and maybe even website to keep everyone 13 .

E49.A50.FWe recently surveyed 500 people on their reading preferences and the reasons for those preferences. According to our findings, 42% of the respondents preferred reading e-books for reasons including that e-books are generally cheaper, more convenient and their information is more up-to-date. Almost 50% of the participants said they preferred paper/hard copy books because they are used to this mode of reading and find note-taking much more convenient. Finally, 10% of the survey participants indicated a preference for audio book reading,stating it is better for their eyes and allows them to simultaneously do other activities such as housework. Our survey showed that while people s reading habits are becoming more diverse, the important thing is that people still continue to read.Version 1language of international communication in many fields. Because of its usefulness, English is now learned by billions of people everywhere.As far as I m concerned, it is of great importance to learn English, for the simple reason that, serving as a universal language, English enables us to communicate with people from all over the world, and equally importantly, learn about foreign cultures.Reasons people learn English vary. Some take it up out of interest, and enjoy the challenge of learning a new language. Others learn English to get a promising job requiring English languageskills.A recent experience showed me just how important learning English could be for my future. Last year, I had the honour of giving a welcoming speech to the British teachers on behalf of my school. I spoke fluent English and this left a deep impression on the guests. The guests were so impressed that they invited me to join a 3-month training programme in England for free. While in England I not only developed some practical skills but also gained invaluable overseas work experience.All in all, emphasis should be placed on English studies as it is good for our future.Version 2Thlanguage of international communication in many fields. Because of its usefulness, English is now learned by billions of people everywhere.I am one of those billions of people learning English. Of course part of my reason for studying English is one of the requirements of my education system. If I want to be admitted into a university, then English is essential. It is also important for my future. My dream is becoming a scientist and most important science research is written in English, even when the writer is from a non-English speaking country. In order to understand the research and to become familiar with the latest scientific ideas, I must know English well.Besides work benefits, knowing English can bring great enjoyment. Many people who love pop music and movies also like learning English because so many great songs and movies come from America and Americans use English.In my school, we have started a movie club, where each week one member brings a movie to watch and then we discuss in English. This is really a great experience because it not only helps to improve our English but it s also a great way to learn about the culture of foreign countries.5[] 1。

2014年广东高考英语试题及答案解析
Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Marin. It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days.“Here’s the idea,” Anne says. “Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says, “Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can.”The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later. Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act. Let it be yours!31. Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her?A. She knew the car drivers well.B. She wanted to show kindness.C. She hoped to please others.D. She had seven tickets.32. Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she _________.A. thought it was beautifully writtenB. wanted to know what it really meantC. decided to write it on a warehouse wallD. wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom33. Who came up with the phrase according to the passage?A. Judy Foreman.B. Natalie Smith.C. Alice Johnson.D. Anne Herbert.34. Which of the following statements is closest in the meaning to the underlined sentence above?A. Kindness and violence can change the world.B. Kindness and violence can affect one’s behavior.C. Kindness and violence can reproduce themselves.D. Kindness and violence can shape one’s character.35. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. People should practice random kindness to those in need.B. People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others.C. People should practice random kindness to strangers they meet.D. People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver.CLike many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family.Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria?I had no idea. But I was about to find out.After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.36. What do we know about the author?A. His university education focused on the theoretical knowledge.B. His dream at university was to become a volunteer.C. He took pride in having contributed to the world.D. He felt honored to study English literature.37. According to the Paragraph 2, it is most likely that the author ________.A. discussed his decision with his family.B. asked previous volunteers about voluntary workC. attended special training to perform difficult tasksD. felt sad about having to leave his family and friends38. In his application for the volunteer job, the author ________.A. participated in many discussionsB. went through challenging survival testsC. wrote quite a few papers on voluntary workD. faced strong competition from other candidates39. On arrival at the village, the author was _________.A. asked to lead a farming teamB. sent to teach in a schoolhouseC. received warmly by local villagersD. arranged to live in a separate house.40. What can we infer from the author’s experiences in Nigeria?A. He found some difficulty adapting to the local cultureB. He had learned to communicate in the local language.C. He had overcome all his weaknesses before he left for home.D. He was chosen as the most respectable teacher by his students.DScientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents (洋流). Most do it using satellites and other high-tech equipment. However, ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way --- by studying movements of random floating garbage. A scientist with many years’ experience, he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States. There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear.Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes — about 60,000 in total — fell into the ocean in a shipping accident. He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back. As expected, the company told him that they didn't. Ebbesmeyer realized this could be agreat experiment. If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed, he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents.The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing(海滩搜寻) because winds and currents join here, and as a result, there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area. Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed. In a year he collected reliable information on 1, 600 shoes. With this data, he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents, and publish the findings of their study.As the result of his work, Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean.

can play very difficult musical pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them．He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts．Then he thinks about the notes in his head．Two years ago，he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata（奏鸣曲）by Beethoven．He surprised everyone around him．Amazed that he remembered this long and difficult piece of music and played it perfectly，his teachers say Samuel is unbelievable．They say his ability is very rare，but Samuel doesn't even realize that what he can do is special．Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents，but music teachers told him he should study music instead．Now，he studies law and music．Samuel can't understand why everyone is so surprised．"I grew up with music．My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar．About two years ago，Isuddenly decided to start playing the piano，without being able to read music and without having any lessons．It comes easily to me﹣﹣﹣I hear the notes and can bear them in mind﹣﹣﹣each and every note，"says Samuel．Recently，Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college．The piece had more than a thousand notes．The audience was impressed by his amazing performance．He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can't play it．Samuel says confidently，"It's all about super memory﹣﹣﹣I guess I have that gift．"However，Samuel's ability to remember things doesn't stop with music．His family says that even when he was a young boy，Samuel heard someone read a story，and then he could retell the story word for word．Samuel is still only a teenager．He doesn't know what he wants to do in the future．For now，he is just happy to play beautiful music and continue his studies．26．What is special about Samuel Osmond？A．He has a gift for writing music．B．He can write down the note he hears．C．He is a top student at the law school．D．He can play the musical piece he hears．27．What can we learn form the passage？A．Samuel chose law against the wish of his parents．B．Samuel planned to be a lawyer rather than a musician．C．Samuel thinks of himself as a man of great musical ability．D．Samuel studies law and music on the advice of his teachers．28．Everyone around Samuel was surprised because he．A．received a good early education in musicB．played the guitar and the piano perfectlyC．could play the piano without reading musicD．could play the guitar better than his father29．What can we infer about Samuel in Paragraph 4？A．He became famous during a special event at his college．B．He is proud of his ability to remember things accurately．C．He plays the piano better than many professional pianists．D．He impressed the audience by playing all the musical pieces．30．Which of the following is the best title of the passage？A．The Qualities of a MusicianB．The Story of a Musical TalentC．The Importance of Early EducationD．The Relationship between Memory and Music．31．（10分）It was a cold winter day．A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth （收费站）．"I'm paying for myself，and for the six cars behind me，"she said with a smile，handing over seven tickets．One after another，the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed，"Some lady up ahead already paid your fare．"It turned out that the woman，Natalie Smith，had read something on a friend's refrigerator："Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty．"The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down．Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home．When it stayed on her mind for days，she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down．"I thought it was beautiful，"she said，explaining why she'd taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters，"like a message from above．"Her husband，Frank，liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students，one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson，a local news reporter．Alice put it in the newspaper，admitting that though she liked it，she didn't know where it came from or what it really meant．Two days later，Alice got a call from Anne Herbert，a woman living in Marin．It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper，after turning it around in her mind for days．"Here's the idea，"Anne says．"Anything you think there should be more of，do it randomly．"Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools，leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town，and giving money secretly to a proud old lady．Anne says，"Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can．" The acts of random kindness spread．If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid，who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later．Like all great events，kindness begins slowly，with every single act．Let it be yours!31．Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her？A．She knew the car drivers well．B．She wanted to show kindness．C．She hoped to please others．D．She had seven tickets．32．Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she．A．thought it was beautifully writtenB．wanted to know what it really meantC．decided to write it on a warehouse wallD．wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom33．Who came up with the phrase according to the passage？A．Judy Foreman．B．Natalie Smith．C．Alice Johnson．D．Anne Herbert．34．Which of the following statements is closest in the meaning to the underlined sentence above？A．Kindness and violence can change the world．B．Kindness and violence can affect one's behavior．C．Kindness and violence can reproduce themselves．D．Kindness and violence can shape one's character．35．What can we infer from the last paragraph？A．People should practice random kindness to those in need．B．People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others．C．People should practice random kindness to strangers they meet．D．People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver．36．（10分）Like many new graduates，I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do．My degree，with honors，in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical．I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow，but I had no idea how to do that．That's when I learned about the Lighthouse Project．I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers．I knew it would be a lot of hard work，and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time．In short，I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly．Neither did my family．Eventually，however，I won the support of my family，and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application．After countless interviews and presentations，I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone．Several months later，I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty．I would be going to a small village near Abuja，Nigeria．Where？What？Nigeria？I had no idea．But I was about to find out．After completing my training，I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation．Though the local villagers were poor，they offered their homes，hearts，and food as if I were their own family．I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse．For the next year or so，I taught in that same schoolhouse．But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me．Sometime during that period，I realized that all those things that had seemed sostrange or unusual to me no longer did，though I did not get anywhere with the local language，and returned to the United States a different man．The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever．36．What do we know about the author？A．His university education focused on the theoretical knowledge．B．His dream at university was to become a volunteer．C．He took pride in having contributed to the world．D．He felt honored to study English literature．37．According to the Project Lighthouse，it is likely that the author A．Discussed his decision with his family．B．Asked previous volunteers about voluntary workC．Attended special training to perform difficult tasksD．Felt sad about having to leave his family and friends38．In his application for the volunteer job，the author．A．Participated in many discussionsB．Went through challenging survival testsC．Wrote quite a few paper on voluntary workD．Faced strong competition from other candidates39．On arrival at the village，the author was．A．Asked to lead a farming teamB．Sent to teach in schoolhouseC．Received warmly by local villagersD．Arranged to live in a separate house．40．What can we infer from the author's experiences in Nigeria？A．He found some difficulty adapting to the local cultureB．He had learned to communicate in the local language．C．He had overcome all his weakness before he left for home．D．He was chosen as the most respectable teacher by his students．41．（10分）Scientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents （洋流）．Most do it using satellites and other high﹣tech equipment．However，ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way﹣﹣﹣by studying movements of random floating garbage．A scientist with many years'experience，he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States．There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear．Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes﹣about 60，000 in total﹣fell into the ocean in a shipping accident．He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back．As expected，the company told him that they didn't．Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a great experiment．If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed，he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents．The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing（海滩搜寻）because winds and currents join here，and as a result，there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area．Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed．In a year he collected reliable information on 1，600shoes．With this data，he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents，and publish the findings of their study．As the result of his work，Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean．He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts，with 500subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand．They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves．41．The underlined phrase swap meets in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to．A．fitting roomsB．trading fairsC．business talksD．group meetings42．Ebbesmeyer phoned the shoe company to find out．A．what caused the shipping accidentB．when and where the shoes went missingC．whether it was all right to use their shoesD．how much they lost in the shipping accident43．How did Ebbesmeyer prove his assumption？A．By collecting information from beachcombersB．By studying the shoes found by beachcomberC．By searching the web for ocean currents modelsD．By researching ocean currents data in the library44．Ebbesmeyer is most famous for．A．traveling widely the coastal cities of the worldB．making records for any lost objects on the seaC．running a global currents research associationD．phoning about any doubtful objects on the sea45．What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage？A．To call people's attention to ocean pollutionB．To warn people or snipping safety in the oceanC．To explain a unique way of studing ocean currentsD．To give tips on how to search for lost objects on the beach．第二节信息匹配（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息，请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑46．（10分）首先请阅读某大学提供给学生的项目信息：46．I grow up in a very big family．My parents

Not only can this habit make your neck or back ache, but it may also make your fat, increase the risk of heart disease and even cause death.（专家建议）To prevent these problems from happening, Professor Zhang pointed out that those who sit too much, such as students and office workers, should form some good habits in life, such as going to school or work on foot or by bike rather than by car, taking the stairs instead of the elevator and standing while talking on the phone. He particularly reminded us that we students should stand up to do some activities during break time rather than sit for hours.第二节读写任务（共1小题，满分25分）（概括原材料）So worried was the author that he found it difficult to rid himself of concerns and worries. However, while sitting by a lake and enjoying the peace of nature, he felt at peace with himself. (With the mind full of concerns and worries, the author drove to a lake. Sitting on a bench and enjoying the peace of nature, he/she rid all the worries of himself/herself and felt at peace.)（主题句，承上启下，说明有忧虑）The experience of the author reminds me of my years in high school, which is a very worrying time for us students.（产生忧虑的原因）Crammed schedules, endless examinations and expectation from parents and teachers are the main causes of my concerns and worries.（产生忧虑的影响）Sometimes, I am too worried to focus on my studies. Worse still, my health also suffers because of worry.（主题句，承上启下，说明有采取措施）Since too much worry has a bad effect on our studies and lives, effective means should be taken to deal with it.（具体做法）As for me, I usually share my feelings with people around me, like my parents, teachers or friends. Besides, I often free myself from worries by listening to music or doing physical activities. If I still cannot rid myself of worries, I'll have a good cry and then try to concentrate on my studies.（保持好心情的重要性）When we are free of worry, we can become healthier, study more efficiently and get along better with other people.（总结）In a word, only when we have a good mood can we grow up happily and healthily.。

Sometimes it can be difficult to homeschool（进行家庭教育）on your own. That's why it's 1 to connect or have a support group that will help you succeed in homeschooling.The first step is to find a(n) 2 that has similar goals and ideas as you. Maybe they homeschool in the same way, use the same curriculum or have the same ages of students.It's important to make sure that you decide what you're looking for out of a support group and then you can go and 3 for it using the Internet or local organization. Do you want your group to just support homeschool families and parents or do you 4 want to hold classes? Are you organizing around a 5 event like field trips, a topic, or classes themselves?If your homeschool support group is just for parents, consider advertising 6 . Getting together a group of homeschooling parents can really help you to 7 ideas that will help improve your homeschool program and can help you succeed in the long run. If you're going to include 8 in your support group, make sure to organize them by 9 level so they're with other students of the same age.If you want to include classes as a part of your homeschool group, you need todecide what type of 10 you'll offer, enrichment, art, athletic, or even core curriculum. Identify a teacher early on and a leader. You don't want to be the 11 leader in your homeschool group. You want to find people that you can trust to 12 alongside you.Communication is the key. You want to set up an email group, a phone chain and maybe even website to keep everyone 13 . Whether you find a local group to join or 14 one of your own, having a support group can really help you 15 in homeschooling.1.A.accessible B. important C. evident D. natural2.

The local elementary school had just let out and I found myself behind a school bus as I was driving home. The bus 16 (stop) by a house sitting on top of a hill.A little girl no more than seven years old jumped down the bus steps and started running up the driveway toward the house.I looked up the hill to see 17 she was going and saw her Dad waiting for her. As she got closer and closer her Dad smiled and knelt down to greet her. The second she got to him he folded her in 18 powerful arms and gave her a huge hug.My eyes watered a bit as I watched this scene and remembered all the times 19 my own children had ran into my arms with 20 (smile) faces. Every single hug from 21 was a fountain of youth and a treasure of joy.My lovely trip down memory lane was interrupted when I heard the car 22me sound its horn（喇叭）. I saw 23 school bus quickly pulling away. I started to follow it again with a 24 (light) spirit than I had before. I took that beautiful moment and stored it 25 (safe) in my soul where I knew it would remain forever.Ⅱ阅读 (共两节，满分50分)第一节阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AMy grandfather died more than twenty-five years ago. I was fifteen. He was kind, strong, fair, and very funny. When I was a young musician, he was my biggest fan. I played my violin for him when he visited, and he loved everything, but each time he had one request. “Could you play …Amazing Grace‟?” he asked, full of hope and with a twinkle in his eye, because he knew my answer was always, “I don‟t know that one!” W e went through this routine at every major holiday, and I always figured I‟d have time to learn it for him later.About the time I entered high school and started guitar, Grandpa got cancer. The last time I saw him alive was Thanksgiving weekend in 1985. My mom warned us that Grandpa didn‟t look the same anymore and that we should prepare ourselves. For a moment I didn‟t recognize him. He looked so small among all the white sheets. We had all gathered in Ohio for the holiday, and I‟m sure we all knew we wer e there to say good-bye. I can see now that Grandpa held on long enough to see us each one more time. I remember how we ate in the dining room and laughed and talked while Grandpa rested in his hospital bed. I wonder if it was sad for him to be alone with our voices and laughter. Knowing Grandpa, he was probably content.The next morning I found my moment alone with him. I pulled out my guitar, tuned to his appreciative gaze, and finally played for him “Amazing Grace.” I had worked on it for weeks, knowing it never mattered whether I actually played it well and choosing not to believe as I played that it was my last concert for my biggest fan. The cancer had stolen his smile, but I saw joy in his eyes. He held my hand afterward, and I knew I had done something important.I argued with people all through college about my music major. I was told by strangers that music wouldn‟t make me any money and it wasn‟t useful like being a doctor. But I know firsthand that with music I was able to give my grandpa something at a point when no one else could.26.At first the author didn‟t play …Amazing Grace‟for Grandpa because ____________.A she hadn‟t learned it yetB. she found it difficult to playC. she disliked playing it.D. her grandfather was just joking.27. From the last sentence in Paragraph 2 we can infer that ____________.A. Grandpa treasured love from familyB. Grandpa was used to living aloneC. Grandpa was too weak to feel anythingD. Grandpa was optimistic about his health28. When the author finally played “Amazing Grace” for Grandpa, ____________.A. she made him smile joyfullyB. she knew she must play it wellC. she brought him love and comfortD. she believed she could play it many times for him.29. What is the author‟s attitude toward her music major?A. DisapprovingB. RegretfulC. DoubtfulD. Positive30. Which of the following was true according to the passage?A. The author was 15 when she wrote the article.B. The author has a great affection for her grandfather.C. The author prefers to be a doctor rather than a musician.D. The author is confident that music will make her much money.BIt's almost impossible to go through life without experiencing some kind of failure. If you have a fear of failure, you might be uncomfortable setting goals. But goals help us decide where we want to go in life. Without goals, we have no sure destination.Many experts recommend visualization(形象化) as a powerful tool for goal setting. Imagining how life will be after you've reached your goal is a great motivator to keep you moving forward. However, visualization might produce the opposite results in people who have a fear of failure. In his article, researcher Thomas Langens showed that people who have a fear of failure were often left in a strong negative mood（消极情绪）after being asked to visualize goals and goal attainment.So, what can you do instead?Start by setting a few small goals. These should be goals that are slightly, but not overwhelmingly, challenging. Think of these goals as "early wins" that are designed to help improve your confidence. For example, if you've been too afraid to talk to the new department head (who has the power to give you the promotion you want), then make this your first goal: Plan to stop by her office during the next week to introduce yourself. Or, imagine that you've dreamed of returning to school to get your MBA(工商管理硕士), but you're convinced that you're not smart enough to be accepted into business school. Set a goal to talk with a school counselor or admissions officer to seewhat's required for admission.Try to make your goals tiny steps on the route to much bigger goals. Don't focus on the end picture: getting the promotion, or graduating with an MBA. Just focus on the next step: introducing yourself to the department head, and talking to an admissions officer. That's it.Taking one small step at a time will help build your confidence, keep you moving forward, and prevent you from getting overwhelmed with visions of your final goal.31. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ____________.A. the fear of failureB. the difficulty in setting goalsC. the reasons for failureD. the importance of setting goals32. The opinion of Thomas Langens is used to ____________.A. tell the results of setting goalsB. prove the limitations of visualizationC.draw the readers‟ attention to the topicD. stress the importance of visualization33. The fourth paragraph is developed mainly by ____________.A. analyzing causesB. making comparisonsC. following the order of spaceD. giving examples34. When setting goals, you should ____________.A. concentrate on your final goalsB. talk with your department headC. begin with some small goalsD. have confidence in your success35. What is the main theme of the passage?A. Skills to set your goals.B. Ways to overcome your fear of failure.C. Having a goal is vital to success.D. Visualization is a powerful tool for goal setting.CMy friend Kathy and I were going to Colorado Springs for holiday. The only problem was, I didn't have any luggage to pack my belongings in.My friend Debbie offered to lend me a suitcase that belonged to her father, who had passed away long ago. “I don't know if you'll want to use it,” she said so gently, “it's very old, worn out, and such an ugly yellow color.” I was so touched by her offer to lend something that belonged to her father, but I was also concerned about the possibility of it being damaged or lost. She insisted that I take it. So with the suitcase safely in hand, I boarded the train with Kathy.We spent two days and one night on the train, sleeping in our seats. As we slept, we were awakened at times, by the noises of the train pulling in and out of the stations.The next morning we eagerly awaited the announcement: Next stop, Colorado Springs. But suddenly, there came another announcement over the loud speaker. “During one of the overnight stops, many pieces of luggage were mistakenly removed from the train and left at the wrong location.”Kathy and I just looked at each other, as I felt the disappointment swell. Could my worst fear be coming true, was Debbie's suitcase lost?Just then two train conductors passed our seats. One of them jokingly said to the other, “Did you ever see such an old, ugly, brighter yellow, piece of luggage in all of your life?”Before the other conductor could answer, I screamed, “YES, MY SUITCASE MADE IT!”The two conductors stopped in their tracks! and, very red in the face, couldn't seem to apologize enough for having insulted my suitcase.When I returned it, I couldn't wait to get the suitcase back into Debbie's safe hands. She asked, “Did everything go well on the trip?” Somehow, I just couldn't resist telling her what had happened. She laughed heartily.When I recall the golden suitcase, I'm reminded, that like the suitcase, we can see ourselves as too old, useless, worn out, and of little value. Or, we can take a closer look and realize that we are one of God's most valued creations -- unique, and holding inside our most valuable possessions -- that of love, faith, hope, and wisdom.36. After borrowing the suitcase, the author was worried about ____________.A. its appearanceB. its sizeC.its colorD.its safety37. Hearing the announcements, the author____________.A. was happy to reach the destinationB. felt angry at the service on the trainC. feared that the suit case might be lostD. asked the conductors to look for the suitcase38. How did the two conductors feel when the author claimed her suitcase?A. Puzzled.B. Embarrassed.C. Astonished.D. Amused.39. From the last paragraph we can learn that ____________.A. a friend in need is a friend indeedB. God helps those who help themselvesC. inner beauty is more important than appearanceD. a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step40. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The Golden Suitcase.B. An Unforgettable Trip.C. A Warm-hearted Friend.D. Two Impolite Conductors.DA deal has been signed to turn by-products from a Scottish distillery（酿酒厂）into fuel for cars.In what is declared to be a world first, the Tullibardine distillery in Perthshire has linked up with a spin-out company from Napier University in Edinburgh. They plan to use bacteria to feed on the "leftovers" from the whisky（威士忌酒）making process. This will produce butanol which can be used to fuel vehicles.More than 90% of the stuff that comes out of a whisky distillery is not whisky. It is leftovers like draff and pot ales（酒糟）- both produced in the early stages of the process. They are high in sugar and are currently used for things like fertiliser and cattle feed. Napier University's Biofuel Research Centre (BfRC) has already shown that the right bacteria can feed on those by-products to produce butanol - a direct replacement for vehicle fuel. Now the spin-out company, Celtic Renewables, and independent whisky producer Tullibardine have signed an agreement. Together they will apply the process to thousands of tonnes of the distillery's leftovers.Professor Martin Tangney, founder of Celtic Renewables, said: "Our partnership with Tullibardine is an important step in the development of a business which combines two important Scottish industries - whisky and renewables. This project shows that creative use of existing technologies can utilise resources on our doorstep to benefit both the environment and the economy."Douglas Ross, managing director of Tullibardine, which spends £250,000 disposing of its by-products every year, said: "We are delighted to be partnering Celtic Renewables in this creative business, the obvious benefits of which are environmental. It takes a cost to us and turns it into something that has social as well as commercial value."The project is being supported by a grant（拨款）from the Scottish government's Zero Waste Scotland initiative. Celtic Renewables said it eventually aimed to build a processing plant in Scotland, with the hope of building an industry that could be worth £60m a year.41. According to the passage, ____________ will be used to take the place of petrol.A. whiskyB. whisky leftoversC. butanolD. draff and pot ales42. How do people deal with whisky leftovers at present?A. They throw them away.B. They use them to feed people.C. They use them to feed bacteria.D. They use them for crops or cattle.43. What does the underlined word “utili s e” in the fourth paragraph probably mean?A. Make use of.B. Get rid of.C. Use up.D. Find out.44. It can be inferred from the passage that____________.A. the government either supports or opposes the projectB. the technology has not been widely used yetC. the project will benefit both the environment and the economyD. the project has brought great profit to the company第二节信息匹配(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息, 请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。
