Leaning against my parents’ wardrobe(衣柜) in the bedroom, I, six years old then, 21 to their casual talk about budgets and paychecks. I 22 that my family was poor.Their money talk continued, and a thought 23 me: Dad had to 24 for me. While the story of my birth ranked as a bedtime favorite, I had never considered hospital bills, the meals I’d eaten, or the25 of my clothes.―Daddy,‖ I interrupted, ―how much did I cost?‖ ―Oh, let me see. About a million dollars.‖A million dollars! Because of me, Dad 26 two jobs. Because of me, he wore 27 jeans, drove an old car, and had his shoes 28 over and over again.I went to the kitchen. From a shelf, I took my granny-shaped 29 , which held every penny I owned –seven dollars. I pulled the bank’s plug out, and30 the coins into my hand. I had often 31 with these coins in secret and I felt secure pleasure in just knowing they were there.Whether the topic had changed when I returned to my parents’ bedroom, I didn’t32 . Tugging ( 用力拉) on Dad’s shirt, I33 out my first payment on a million dollars.―Here,‖ I said. ―Maybe this will34 to pay for me.‖―What?‖ Dad’s confused look35 my own. Didn’t he remember what he’d said? Didn’t the sight of me 36 him of how much I cost?My tear-filled eyes finally made 37 to him.Dad knelt down and pulled me 38 . ―You didn’t cost a million dollars, but you’re39 a million million dollars. And if that’s what I’d have to pay for you, I would do it.‖Today, I often pull out this memory, think about it and feel the 40 of it in my heart.21．A. heard B. watched C. listened D. joined22．A. pretended B. accepted C. concluded D. confused23．A. occurred B. hit C. came D. left24．A. apply B. apologize C. send D. pay25．A. style B. price C. material D. quality26．A. gave up B. worked C. lost D. offered27．A. old B. new C. expensive D. beautiful28．A. repaired B. washed C. sold D. bought29．A. coin B. bag C. bank D. suitcase30．A. carried B. sent C. returned D. poured31．A. quarreled B. played C. worked D. laughed32．A. notice B. see C. worry D. mind33．A. ran B. put C. held D. set34．A. get B. reach C. come D. help35．A. matched B. surprised C. increased D. confused36．A. ask B. remind C. warn D. teach3 45 637．A. senseB. troubleC. understandingD. money 38．A. downB. upC. awayD. close39．A. selling B. buying C. worthD. saving 40．A. heightB. lightC. coldD. warmth第二部分 阅读理解:（共两节, 满分50分）第一节（共20小题; 每小题2分, 满分40分）阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的选项（A 、B 、C 和D ）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卷上将该项涂黑AThe evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on well with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly-held image of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmoniousthan it has ever been in the past. ―We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seem to be about their families,‖ said one member of the research team. ―They’re expected to be rebellious (叛逆的) and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There’s more negotiation (商议) and discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don’t want to rock the boat.‖So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends. ―My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,‖ says 17-year-old Daniel Lazall, ―I always tell them when I’m going out clubbing. As long as they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with it.‖ Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees. ―Looking back on the last 10 years, the re was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.‖Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments, ―Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change fromhelping out with the family business to taking it over.‖ 41．What is the popular image of teenagers today?A. They worry about school.B. They dislike living with their parents.C. They have to be locked in to avoid troubles.D. They quarrel a lot with other family members.42．The study shows t hat teenagers don’t want to________.A. share family responsibilityB. cause trouble in their familiesC. go boating with their familyD. make family decisions43．Compared with parents of 30 years ago, today’s parents________.A. go to clubs more often with their childrenB. are much stricter with their childrenC. care less about their children’s lifeD. give their children more freedom44．According to the author, teenage rebellion ________.A. may be a false beliefB. is common nowadaysC. existed only in the 1960sD. resulted from changes in families45．What is the passage mainly about?A. Negotiation in family.B. Education in family.C. Harmony in family.D. Teenage trouble in family.BA year ago August, Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan. His wife,Gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria, but work for Dave was scarce, and the price of everything was rising. The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift — $ 7,000, a legacy (遗产) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident. ―It really made a difference when we were going under financially.‖ says Dave.But the Fusses weren’t the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive unexpectedlegacy from the Hatches. Dozens of other families were touched by the Hatches’ generosity. In some cases, it was a few thousand dollars; in others, it was more than $100,000.It surprised nearly everyone that the Hatches had so much money, more than $3 million — they were anelderly couple who lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm.Children of the Great Depression, Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of saving. They thrived on (喜欢)comparison shopping and would routinely go from store to store, checking prices before making a new purchase.姓名 座位 准考证………………………封………………………………………………… 线………………………………………封………………………………………………… 线Through the years, the Hatches paid for local children to attend summer camp w hen their parents couldn’ t afford it. ―Ish and Arlene never asked if you needed anything.‖ says their friend Sandy Van Weelden, ―They could see things they could do to make you happier, and they would do them.‖Even more extraordinary was that the Hatche s had their farmland distributed. It was the Hatches’ wish that their legacy — a legacy of kindness as much as one of dollars and cents —should enrich the whole community and last for generations to come.Neighbors helping neighbors — that was Ish and Arle ne Hatch’ s story.46．According to the text, the Fusses ________.A. were employed by a truck companyB. were in financial difficultyC. worked in a school cafeteriaD. lost their home47．Which of the following is true of the Hatches?A. They had their children during the Great Depression.B. They left the family farm to live in an old house.C. They gave away their possessions to their neighbors.D. They helped their neighbors to find jobs.48．Why would the Hatches routinely go from store to store?A. They decided to open a store.B. They wanted to save money.C. They couldn’t afford expensive things.D. They wanted to buy gifts for local kids.49．According to Sandy Van Weelden, the Hatches were________.A. understandingB. optimisticC. childlikeD. curious50．What can we learn from the text?A. The community of Alto was poor.B. The summer camp was attractive to the parents.C. Sandy Van Weelden got a legacy from the Hatches.D. The Hatches would like the neighbors to follow their example.CResearchers Look Behind the Tears to Study CryingMany people found themselves unusually moved by the historic presidential inauguration（就职演说）last week in Washington. Watching the huge crowds, we saw laughter, cheers, hugs---but also many tears.It made us wonder why do people cry? Surely tears must be good for us—away to calm the mind and cleanse the body. Yet studies show that crying sometimes makes people feel worse.Three researchers in Florida and the Netherlands recently looked more deeply into the subject. They examined detailed descriptions of crying experiences. Psychologist Jonathan Rottenberg at the University of South Florida says they wanted to study crying as it happens in everyday life, not in a laboratory.The team analyzed information from the International Study on Adult Crying. As part of that study, three thousand people in different countries, mostly college students, wrote about recent crying experiences. They noted causes, surroundings and any people involved in the event. They also reported how they felt after they cried.Professor Roaenberg says the research showed that all crying experiences are not created equal. Crying does not always make a person feel better, he says. About ten percent of people reported feeling worse after they cried.But a third felt better after crying. And a majority reported the experience as helpful.The research showed that people who cry alone may not do as well as those with others around. People who reached out for emotional support at the time---and received it---reported better results from the crying experience.But Professor Rottenberg says those who felt shame or embarrassment while crying were less likely to report that crying had been helpful.Research has shown that women cry more often and more intensely than men. But it may not have better effect, says the psychologist. The new findings, he says, did not show that a person’s sex was an advantage of beneficial crying. In other words, just because women cry more does not mean they are more likely to have a ―good‖ cry.The paper entitled ―Is Crying Beneficial?‖ appeared in December in Current Directions in Psychological Science and there is more to learn. Jonathan Rottenberg says the science of crying is still in its infancy. 51．Why did the author mention the presidential inauguration in Washington in the first paragraph?A. Because he was impressed by the laughter, cheers, hugs and tears．B. Because he wanted to introduce the topic about crying．C. Because he wanted to show peop le’s dissatisfaction with the result．D. Because it was the historic moment that many people cried52．How did the researchers carry out the research?A. They studied crying experiences not only in everyday life but also in labs．7 89 10B. They collected the crying experiences of the students at the colleges ．C. They studied the crying experiences of grown-ups from various countries ．D. They noted their own crying experiences and compared with others ． 53．We can learn from the passage that ．A. it may be better to cry alone than with others aroundB. some support from others may make crying helpfulC. women who cry more often may have better effects than menD. the effects will be better if you feel shy while crying54．The underlined phrase in the last paragraph probably means ．A. in the early stageB. in a secret stateC. in the first placeD. in good condition DMost of us spend our lives seeking the natural world. To this end, we walk the dog, play golf, go fishing, sit in the garden, drink outside rather than inside the pub, have a picnic, live in the suburbs, go to the seaside, buy a weekend place in the country. The most popular free time activity in Britain is going for a walk. And when joggers (慢跑者) jog, they don’t ru n down the streets. Every one of them automatically heads to the park or the river. It is my firm belief that not only do we all need nature, but we all seek nature, whether we know we are doing so or not.But despite this, our children are growing up nature-deprived (丧失). I spent my boyhood climbing trees. These days, children are robbed of these ancient freedoms, due to problems like crime, traffic, the loss of the open spaces and strange new ideas about what is best for children, that is to say, things that can be bought, rather than things that can be found.The truth is to be found elsewhere. A study in the US: families had moved to better housing and the children were assessed for ADHD (多动症). Those whose housing had more natural views showed an improvement of 19%; those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%.A study in Sweden indicated that kindergarten children who could play in a natural environment had less illness and greater physical ability than children used only to a normal playground. A US study suggested that when a school gave children access to a natural environment, the entire school would do better in studies.Another study found that children play differently in a natural environment. In playgrounds, children create a hierarchy (等级) based on physical abilities, with the tough ones taking the lead. But when a grassy area wasplanted with bushes, the children got much more into fantasy play, and the social hierarchy was now based onimagination and creativity.Most bullying (恃强凌弱) is found in schools where there is a tarmac (柏油碎石) playground; the least bullying is in a natural area that the children are encouraged to explore. This reminds me unpleasantly of Sunnyhill School, with its hard tarmac, where I used to hang about in corners dreaming about wildlife.But children are frequently discouraged from involvement with natural spaces, for health and safety reasons, for fear that they might get dirty or that they might cause damage. So, instead, the damage is done to the children themselves: not to their bodies but to their souls.One of the great problems of modern childhood is ADHD, now increasingly and expensively treated with drugs. Yet one study after another indicates that contact with nature gives huge benefits to ADHD children. However, we spend money on drugs rather than on green places.The life of old people is much better when they have access to nature. The most important for the growing population of old people is in quality rather than quantity of years. And study after study finds that a garden is the single most important thing in finding that quality.In wider and more difficult areas of life, there is evidence to indicate that natural surroundings improve all kinds of things. Even problems with crime and aggressive behaviour are reduced when there is contact with the natural world.Dr William Bird, researcher from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, states in his study, ―A natural environment can reduce violent behaviour because its process helps reduce anger and behavior that people might regret later.‖ Wild places need encouraging for this reason, no matter how small their contribution.We tend to think human beings are doing nature some kind of favour when we are protecting nature. The error here is far too deep: not only do humans need nature for themselves, but the very idea that humanity and the natural world are separable things is damaging.Human beings are a species of animals. For seven million years we lived on the planet as part of nature. So we miss the natural world and long for contact with non-human life. Anyone who has patted a dog, stroked a cat, sat under a tree with a glass of beer, given or received a bunch of flowers or chosen to walk through the park on a nice day, understands that.We need the wild world. It is necessary to our well-being, our health, our happiness. Without other living things around us we are less than human. 55．What is the author’s firm belief?… 线………… 线A.
