Some even win local talent competitions as children, but only a few such early successes and dreams turn into reality. Jessica Andrews is one of the few whose dreams have come true.Andrews, first taste of success came at the age of 10. She won a talent competition in her home town of Huntingdon, Tennessee, singing I Will Always Love You, originally sung by Whitney Houston. Houston's version of the song appeared on The Bodyguard sound track, which happened to be the first album Andrews ever bought.Within two years, talk of Andrews had spread to Nashville and caught the attention of producer Byron Gallimore, whose credits include work with Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Jo Dee Messina. With Gallimore signed on to produce, Andrews soon had a recording contract (合同)with Dream Works' Nashville label. Andrews' professional career was launched with 1999's Heart Shaped World, recorded when she was 14 years old. The album included the country hit I Will Be There For You, which also appeared on The Prince Of Egypt. She followed up the release of the album by touring as a support act for such country superstars as Faith Hill and Trisha Y earwood.With the release of 2001's Who I Am, Andrews became a star in her own right. The album was certified (证明)gold for sales of 500,000 copies. Andrews returned in April 2003 with Now, an album that she promised would show a new side of the young artist. "This album has a very different feeling for me," she said. "It's a lot more personal and there's a confidence that wasn't quite there on the first two. I feel especially connected to this group of songs."21. What's the meaning of the underlined word “launched" in the fourth paragraph?A. Aimed.B. Sent.C. Started.D. Set.22. Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage?A. The Bodyguard was the first album Andrews ever bought.B. After Andrews sang Who I Am, she became a star in her own right.C. I Will Always Love Y ou was originally sung by Whitney Houston.D. Now expresses a new feeling of Andrews.23. Which of the following may NOT be Andrews' album?A. Now.B. Heart Shaped World.C. The Prince of Egypt.D. Who I Am24. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Jessica Andrews' LifeB. Jessica Andrews' DreamC. Jessica Andrews' SongsD. Jessica Andrews' Success as a SingerBOne year, my school report made my parents angry. On Christmas Eve, all the presents were stolen, along with our TV. My parents told me that there were no presents because Santa was very angry with my behavior over the past year. The next year on Christmas Eve I slept downstairs with a plastic sword waiting for Santa to make sure that he didn't steal the new TV. The next morning, when I woke up, I saw Santa standing there. As soon as I saw that there were no presents, I grabbed my plastic sword and ran at him, shouting angrily: "THIEF! THIEF!"JackWhen I was young, we always had a specific room for the Christmas tree. My mom never really liked the location, so one year she moved the tree into another room. I was convinced that Santa would not know where the tree was and would get lost in our house. I was worried that he would be mad and put me on the "bad" list and would not give me any gifts because he couldn't find the tree. I came up with the idea to make signs leading from the fireplace to the tree. They said things like: "Tree this way" or "Santa, put the gifts over here." When my big brother saw them he began to laugh his head off.LucyDoes everyone remember going to the mall and sitting on Santa’s lap to have his picture taken at Christmas time?Well, I used to think that if I did that, Santa would get mad because he would have to go all around the world and give every kid the chance to have his picture taken with him. Of course his lap would hurt and he would be very fired. I thought he might keep a copy of the picture and that would be how he decided who would be on his naughty list.My mom couldn't get me onto Santa's lap until she made him promise I wouldn't end up on his naughty list.Lydia25. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Belief in SantaB. The Excitement on ChristmasC. Christmas GiftsD. Christmas Celebration26. The real reason why Jack's TV was taken away is that ______________.A. his parents were too carelessB. his parents thought he had watched too much TVC. Santa Claus was not satisfied with Jack’s behaviorD. Santa gave the TV to another child as a present27. Which of the following is NOT the reason why Lucy didn't want the tree to be moved?A. Santa would not know where the tree was.B. Santa would be angry and would not give her any gifts.C. Her big brother might laugh at her.D. Santa might think she was a "bad" child.CMUMBAI, India —The children in their party clothes on the stage were very excited when they received the award. And the two of them said, "It’s unbelievable!"Nine-year-old, Rubina Ali, and Azharuddin Ismail, 10, were living a very different life and obviously loving every minute of it. The two, some of the child stars of the Oscar-winning Slum dog Millionaire(《贫民窟的百万富翁》)movie, know the Indian slums very well. That was where they grew up, and it is where they will return at the end of their Hollywood dream trip.But before going back home, there was an interview with the host, Ryan Seacrest. During the interview they smiled and repeated their disbelief in what was happening to them. To their surprise, their movie won first place in the Oscars. When the two received the award, it was late morning in the children’s home city of Mumbai, where family, friends and many fellow residents of the slums watched the result from Hollywood."I don’t really know what the Oscars are," Rubina’s mother said. "I’m just glad my daughter looks happy, though she told me she missed Indian food.""Our children lead a dog’s life," Rubina’s mother said, pointing out the rubbish everywhere, the open drains (下水道) and the lack of education opportunities.In a few days they will be back in Mumbai and back in the slums which aretheir home. Fortunately, according to media reports, the movie’s director, Danny Boyle, has promised to help the children chosen from the slum and make sure they will go to a proper school.The two don’t need to worry about their daily lives because of the Oscar success of Slum dog Millionaire.But the poverty and lack of opportunity —the central theme of the movie—is always all around.28. Which of the following is NOT true about the two children?A. They were both excited about receiving the award.B. They had been having a difficult life in India.C. They were interviewed before they went back home.D. They were the only two child stars in the movie, Slum dog Millionaire.29. What can we infer from the text?A. The two children have played in other movies before.B. Rinoms’s mother also went to the Hollywood.C. Rubina may not get used to the American food.D. They will travel to other countries before returning home.30. What will happen to the two children after they return to India?A. They will go back to the miserable life.B. They will play in movies as famous actors.C. They will leave school to learn acting.D. They will have a better education.31. According to the author, the value of the movie is that ________.A. it has been given an Oscar AwardB. it has made the two children famousC. it has become popular all over the worldD. its central theme has become known to the publicDThere were more than 3billlion passenger pigeons—a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing.Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands, Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century ,the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by American’s need for wood, which scattered (驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wi pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time , a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.32. In the 18th and early 19teh centuries, passenger pigeons____.A. were the biggest bird in the worldB. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environmentD. were the largest bird population in the Us33. The underlined word “ undoing” probably refers to the pigeons’ ____.A. escapeB. ruinC. liberationD. evolution34. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A. To seek pleasure.B. To save other birds.C. To make money.D. To protect crops.35. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A. It was ignored by the public.B. It was declared too late.C. It was unfair.D. It was strict.第三部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1分,满分20分)As a general rule, all forms of activity lead to boredom when they are performed on a routine(常规)basis. As a matter of fact, we can see this 36 at work inpeople of all 37 . For example, on Christmas morning, children are excited about 38 with their new toys. But their 39 soon wears off and by January those 40 toys can be found put away in the basement. The world is full of 41 stamp albums and unfinished models, each standing as a monument to someone’s 42 interest. When parents bring home a pet, their child 43 bathes it and brushes its fur. Within a short time, however, the 44 of caring for the animal is handed over to the parents. Adolescents enter high school with great 45 but are soon looking forward to 46 . The same is true of the young adults going to college. And then, how many 47 , who now complain (抱怨) about the long drives to work, 48 drove for hours at a time when they first 49 their driver’s license (执照)? Before people retire, they usually 50 to do a lot of 51 things, which they never had 52 to do while working. But 53 after retirement , the golfing, the fishing, the reading and all of the other pastimes become as boring as the jobs they 54 . And , like the child in January, they go searching for new 55 .36.

When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research._____56_______ Try the following steps:Calm yourself. ______57_______ Y ou can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.Don’t wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. _____58_______ Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you._____59______ If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. Y ou may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.Don’t forget to forgive yourself. _____60______ But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don’t do it.A. Why should you forgive?B. How should you start to forgive?C. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.D. Try to see things from your offender’s angle.E. For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.F. To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.G.

He was a big man, and he was strong from pulling the nets and fighting the seas for his catch. When you got close to him, he smelled like the ocean. He would wear his old canvas, foul-weather coat and his bibbed overalls. No matter how much my Mother washed them, they would still smell of the sea and of fish.'' His voice dropped a bit. ''When the weather was bad he would drive me to school. He had an old truck which was older than he was. You could hear it coming for blocks. As he drove toward the school, I would shrink down into the seat hoping to disappear. Then he would lean over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing for me. Here, I was twelve years old, and my Dad would lean over and kiss me goodbye!''He paused and then went on, ''I remember the day I decided I was too old for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean toward me, but I put my hand up and said, 'No, Dad. I‟m too old for a goodbye kiss. I'm too old for any kind of kiss.''''My Dad looked at me for the longest time, and his eyes started to tear up. I had never seen him cry. He turned and looked out the windshield (挡风玻璃). 'You're right,' he said. …You are a big boy....a man. I won't kiss you anymore.‟''Frank got a funny look on his face, and the tears began to well up in his eyes, as he spoke. ''It wasn't long after that when my Dad went to sea and never came back. It was a day when most of the ships or boats stayed in, but not Dad. He had a big family to feed.

But when he learned that the school district was going to offer a Mandarin class, he quickly changed his mind.''I thought it would be more useful than Latin,'' said Cheatham, who is now in his second yearof studying the language.He speaks Mandarin to order food at Chinese restaurants and can read Face book posts from his Chinese-speaking friends.While it's a difficult language to master, the high school junior, who plans to study computer engineering, thinks it will be a valuable thing in his career.''Chinese is a good language to know, especially with China becoming a growing power,'' he said. Many experts agree that proficiency in a language spoken by a billion people worldwide will give American students an edge in the global economy.''People are looking at China as our next economic competitor, and interest in Mandarin is growing,'' said Marty Abbott, executive director of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. ''We're seeing it in all parts of the country.''The number of students studying Mandarin in public schools nationwide in grades 7 through 12 grew from 20,000 in 2004-2005 to 60,000 three years later, according to the council's most recent survey.Abbott estimates that as many as 100,000 students are now studying Mandarin, in public and private schools, throughout the nation.She said the US government has considered Mandarin to be an ''important needs'' language and provides professional development programs for teachers.''Our government wants to increase our language ability for national security and economic competitiveness, ''Abbott said.At the same time, the Chinese government is spreading knowledge of the Chinese language and culture through Confucius Institutes established in many states.The Confucius Institute at the University of Texas in Dallas, founded in 2007, opens Confucius Classrooms at 11 local public and private schools where more than 700 students are learning Mandarin.61. Why does the writer mention Thomas in the passage?A. To tell us how changeable he is.B. To introduce the topic of the passage.C. To introduce his college life.D. To tell us Latin is less popular now.62. Many experts in America agree that _______.A. Mandarin is becoming more beneficial than LatinB. Mandarin is very difficult to learn for most American studentsC. Mandarin will be of some help to American students in the global economyD. China is a competitor of America in culture63.

Because Mandarin is very helpful in the global economy.D. Because the Chinese government has tried his best.64. From the passage we know that Confucius Institutes _______.A. have trained 100,000 students to learn Mandarin in AmericaB. provide professional development programs for teachersC. have been established in many states in AmericaD. were founded in 200765. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. An increasing number of students in America are learning Mandarin.B. Confucius Institutes have been established in many states in America.C.

China now is becoming a growing power.CYou don't need to get in a time-traveling machine to see how technology will reshape our lives, such as the way we shop.Several new technologies that are to change your buying habits already exist.Let's see what's in store for your future shopping.Try it on, virtually (虚拟的).Want to shop online for a new pair of eyeglasses? You don't need to guess which pair looks best on you ---use the eBay Fashion iPhone app (程序)to try a pair of eyewear you're checking out on a picture of your face.But what if you want to buy something bigger? Thanks to Microsoft Kinect's motion tracking camera, you can cover clothes on your screen body.You can even choose the background of your virtual fitting room to enrich your shopping experience.Get a perfect, custom fit.Everyone's body is shaped differently.To get a perfect fit, you sometimes have to get your clothes changed.But by using 3D scanning technology, all the clothes you buy will fit your body perfectly.Some companies scan your body using High-tech to get the most accurate measurements, so they can make special clothes just for you.High-tech shopping carts and checkout counters.High-tech shopping carts could, in time, be a common sight in malls and supermarkets.Microsoft Kinect-enabled carts are currently under test.The cart can follow you along the aisles (通道), controlled merely by your movement and your voice.In China, a supermarket chain introduced tablet-equipped carts that guide shoppers around the stores' aisles.In the United States, several supermarkets use a device called Scan It that gives buyers the freedom to scan purchases on their own while they shop.While it's great not having to line up at a checkout counter, we wouldn't mind it if the store used Toshiba's new Object Recognition Scanner.The machine identifies a product as soon as it's placed in front of a camera just by its shape and color, even if it has no bar code.66.What's the best title for this text?A.Ways for future shopping B.Influence of new technologyC.Inventions to change habits D.A new time-traveling machine 67.According to Paragraph 2, The eBay Fashion iPhone app can _____.A.make vivid pictures of our face B.help us sell more clothes onlineC.create us a virtual dressing room D.choose suitable eyeglasses for us 68.Which of the following can get the most accurate shape of our body?A.Object Recognition Scanner.B.The eBay Fashion iPhone app.C.3D scanning technology.D.Microsoft Kinect-enabled carts.69.The Object Recognition Scanner can identify a product more quickly by____.A.the customer's voice B.its shape and colorC.the customer's movement D.the bar code on it70.What can we infer from this text?A.Checkout counters will disappear from supermarkets in future.B.Buyers can use Scan It to go around the supermarket by themselves.C.High-tech shopping carts will be widely used in malls and supermarkets.D.The new technologies are only dreams that are impossible to come true.DIf you're in Florence, Italy, and see a man on a ladder wiping the dust off statues and buildings, don't worry.It's just Alessandro Ricci gathering material for his famous smog paintings.Ricci is not a common artist, because he used smog as the main medium of his artworks.Unlike other painters seeking fast recognition of their talent, he doesn't really care about "being this big artist".Instead he is more concerned about bringing attention to how much smog there really is in his home town and how it's destroying both its monuments and people.Although he did take a couple of art classes a few years back, he is mainly self-taught, doesn't work in a studio, donates most of his work, and refuses to play by the rules of the Florentine Art Gallery, which he considers dishonest.Alessandro Ricci believes selling his smog paintings will not only compromise his belief, but also oppose the very thing he's trying to do---raise awareness about smog pollution in this city.Alessandro lives with his parents nearby Florence, but almost every day he visits the streets of the city, and collects smog for his paintings.He gets it from several meters above ground, from clean surfaces like marble, plastic and stone, using damp pieces of cotton.Then he applies the smog directly onto a cloth and creates street scenes and reproductions of the
