I had always been proud of my skill with a gun. I never missed hitting a deer, or a duck on the wing.That day we went out hunting. The doctor was holding his rifle, moving carefully toward a deer. I was straight behind him. My plan took shape right there and then. And at my side watching was my hunting dog, Jerry. I kept my eyes on the doctor. He came to a sudden stop, motionless. He was now a perfect target.I raised my gun, carefully watching him. The moment he fired would be my signal. It had now come. He raised his rifle… For a second, a fierce silence… I pressed the trigger. I saw the fl ame leap from my gun and heard the loud report… There was a low whimper (悲吠声), and a mass of fur…The doctor quickly lowered his gun, and turned around. “You saw that deer too?” Then he noticed what lay between us—Jerry. The dog lay there with his head between his paws. His eyes still kept staring at me. The doctor ran toward Jerry and looked down at him with an extremely painful look. “How terrible!” he moaned… “This beautiful creature… Oh, Henry, you must be feeling awful! ”We stood close together for a time, speechless. At last he said, “Henry, that dog must have made an impossible leap to get in front of that bullet.”The long silent moments at Jerry’s graveside (墓地) were extremely painful. They brought back everything in clear and sharp detail. But I would never let it disappear from memory. I would keep it as green as the ferns (羊齿植物) I placed on the small headstone of Jerry’s grave, for it’s Jerry that stopped my wrong.56. Which of the following do you think is “my plan”?A. My plan was to shoot the doctor when the doctor fired his gun.B. My plan was to take the doctor by surprise.C. My plan was to shoot the deer before the doctor could make it.D.

Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The writer would bear what he had done to Jerry in mind forever.B. J erry’s death was beyond the writer’s expectation but it did make him think.C.

According to the passage, we can infer that Jerry died because ______.A. an accident happened in the huntingB. his owner was carelessC. the two men hated each otherD. he made out his owner’s planBPeople can be addicted to different things —e.g, alcohol, drugs, certain foods, or even television. People who have such an addiction are compulsive; i,e, they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy. According to psychologists, many people are compulsive spenders: they feel that they must spend money. This compulsion, like most others, is irrational—impossible to explain reasonably. For compulsive spenders who buy on credit, charge accounts are even more exciting than money .In other words, compulsive spenders feel that with credit, they can do anything. Their pleasure in spending enormous amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that they get from the things they buy .There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things they don’t n eed just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budgets, but they are really playing an exciting game: when they can buy something for less than other people, they feel that they are winning. Most people, experts claim, have two reasons for their behavior: a good reason for the things that they do and the real reason.It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business-people, stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business: they c onsider people’s needs for love, power, or influence, their basic values, their beliefs and opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods.Psychol ogists often use a method called “behavior therapy” to help individuals s olve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money.60. According to the psychologists, a compulsive spender is one who spends large amounts of money_____________.A. and takes great pleasure from what he or she buys.B. in order to satisfy his or her basic needs in lifeC. just to meet his or her strong psychological needD. entirely with an irrational eagerness61. According to author, the compulsive bargain hunters are in constant search of the lowest possible prices__________.A. because they want to save money to help their budgetsB. because they can openly boast of their triumph over others in getting things for less moneyC. and will not have money problems if they can keep onto their budgetsD. because they feel satisfied if they can get things for less money than others62. Which of the following is true?A. All people spend money for exactly the same reason that they need to buy things.B. Business people and advertisers can use the psychology of money to increase sales.C. Business people understand the psychology of compulsive buying better than scientists do.D. Compulsive bargain hunters do not have problems with money.63. The article is mainly about____________.A. the psychology of money-spending habitsB. the purchasing habits of compulsive spendersC. a special psychology of bargain huntingD. the use of the psychology of spending habits in business64. From the passage we may safely conclude that compulsive spenders or compulsive bargainhunters___________.A.. are really unreasonableB. need special treatmentC. are really beyond remediesD. can never get any help to solve their problems with moneyCFor most of the 20th century, the solution to the mystery of the original Americans --- where did they come from, when and how? -- seemed as clear as the geography of the Bering Strait, the climate of the last ice age, and the ubiquity (普遍存在)of finely wrought (磨制的) stone hunting weapons knows as Clovis points.According to the ruling theory, bands of big--game hunters tracked out of Siberia sometime 11,500 years ago. They crossed into Alaska when the floor of the Bering Strait, drained dry by the accumulation of water in a frozen world's massive glaciers, was a land bridge between continents, and found themselves in a trackless continent, the New World when it was truly new.The hunters, so the story went, moved south through a corridor between glaciers and soon flourished on the great plains and in the southwest of what is now the United States, their presence widely marked by distinctive stone projectile (抛射) points first discovered near the town of Clovis, New Mexico. In less than 1,000 years, these Clovis people and their distinctive stone points made it all the way to the tip of the south of America. They were presumably (大概)the founding population of today's American Indians.Now a growing body of very interesting evidence is telling a much different story. From Alaska to Brazil and southern Chile, artifacts and skeletons are forcing archaeologists to abandon Clovis orthodoxy (传统观念) and come to terms with a more complex picture of earliest American settlement. People may have arrived thousands to tens of thousands of years sooner, in many waves of migration and by a number of routes. Their ancestry may not havebeen only Asian. Some of the migrations may have originated in Australia or Europe.65. What is the main idea of the text?A. Hunters from Siberia crossed the Bering Strait 11,500 years ago.B. The Clovis people may not have been the first to arrive.C. Clovis points were first found in New Mexico.D. During the last ice age, the Bering Strait was dry land.66. The Clovis people are named after the place where ________.A. they first camped in North AmericaB. their tents and burials were first foundC. they crossed into North AmericanD. their stone points were first found67. Scientists now believe that native Americans originally came from _______.A. Siberia in a single migration about 11,500 years agoB. all parts of North and South AmericaC. Europe onlyD. many places, including Siberia, Europe, and AustraliaDBabies are not just passing idle time when they stare goggle-eyed at the television—they are actually learning about the world, U.S. researchers said. Parents may want to limit what their babies see on television, based on the study, said Donna Mumme, assistant professor of psychology at Tufts University in Boston, who led the research. “Children as young as 12 months are making decisions based n the emotional(情感的)reactions of adults around them,”Mumme said in a statement. “It turns out they can also use emotional information they pick up from television. This means that adults might want to think twice before they speak in a loud and harsh voice or let a baby see television programs meant for information about the world. A mother urging her baby to eat some “yummy”soup on a brother crying in fear when a dog approaches can influence a baby’s reaction. Mumme’s team tested babies to determine. If television has the same influence, showing actors reacting on a videotape to objects such as red spiral letter holder, a blue humpy ball, and a yellow garden hose attachment. Babies aged 10 months or 12 months were later given the same objects to play with. Ten-month-olds did not seem to be influenced by the video but the 1-year-olds were. When the actors acted neutrally or positively to an object, the babies happily played with them. But if the actor had seemed afraid or disgusted, the babies would avoid the object.68．Psychology is the study of .A．human’s society and its growthB．human’s hopes had dreamsC．human’s mind and behaviorsD．human’s languages and cultures69．Which of the following is Mumme’s conclusion?A．Small babies should not be allowed to watch television programs.B．Adults need to think twice before they act in front of small babies.C．TV programs provide small babies with all the information they need.D．One-year-olds can be emotionally influenced by TV programs.70．Mumme reached his conclusion by .A．measuring the time babies spent in front of TV.B．making TV programs and advertisements for kids.C．showing actors how to react to blue bumpy ballsD．observing small babies’ reactions to TV programs71．Which of the following may the study lead to according to the researchers?A．Parents may want to limit what their babies see on television.B．Actors may try to behave themselves well in front of babies.C．Babies may be allowed to choose what they see on TV.D．Scientists may stop ignoring babies’ emotional world.EWhen my father died, one of the tasks that fell to me was to sort through the minutiae (小东西) of his life and decide which objects to save and which to throw away. Now I look at the objects of my life as if I were dead, wondering, what will my children do with the human skull(头盖骨) that sits on the bookcase next to my desk in my study? I couldn't blame them if they threw it out. They've been wanting to do that for some years, but will they know how much can be learned from living with a skull? And what about my books? Surely they can find some place in their apartments for ten thousand books. However, I know they will look at the white, plastic head of a horse on my desk and throw it into a rubbish bag without a thought, never knowing that it is the only piece remaining from the first chess set I owned. It is me at age twelve.But that is the order of things. The final decisions about who we were are left to those who knew us least--our children. I was the closes to my father and knew him well, and yet, only when I was going through his study did I learn he had collected picture postcards of hotels. Had he ever shown the huge scrapbook to anyone? And what was I to do with it now? What was I to do with all the objects that had been him? The grieving (sad) part of me wanted to put everything in my car and take it home. However, I filled rubbish bag after rubbish bag with old newspapers, magazines, paper clips, etc, apologizing to his spirit as I did. I could not throw out the thousands of slides he had taken on his travels. I brought the slides home, though I will never look at them. And I brought home the postcards, too. I brought twelve boxes of my father home.Every object of our lives is a memory. How many boxes of me will my children keep?I look at these objects that are me and know, too, that they are symbols of how alone I am, how alone each of us is, for no one knows what any object means except he or she who owns it.Only I have the memories of when and how each one was acquired; only I have the memory of taking it home like one of my newly born children from the hospital. I look at the objects that are me, and the memories are warm. I look at the objects that are me and know that I'm going to miss me very much.72. What does "that" in the first paragraph refer to?A. His children have been wanting to put the skull in their apartments.B. His children have been wanting to throw away the skull.C. His children have been wanting to have a look at the skull so much.D. His children have been wondering why he keeps the skull.73. What can you guess the writer will probably learn __ from living with a skull?A. that his children don't like himB. that his children like him very muchC. that life is short and one should value itD. that his children admire their unique father74. The writer apologized to his father's spirit because .A. he couldn't take all his father's objects home and would throw many awayB. he could not throw out the thousands of slides he had taken on his travelsC. he didn't take good care of his fatherD. he couldn't understand his father75. Why does the writer feel "each of us is alone" while looking at these objects that are him?A. Because he feels only we ourselves understand why we keep the objects.B. Because he feels the people around us don't know when we get the objects.C. Because he feels our children will take away the objects after we die.D. Because he feels our children don't like the objects.第二卷 (非选择题，共35分)第四部分：写作(共两节，满分35分)第一节：对话填空(共10小蹰，每小题1分，满分10分)请认真阅读下列对话，并根据各题所给的首字母的提示，在答题卡右栏中标有题目的横线上，写出一个英语单词的完整、正确的形式，使对话通顺。
