A

Before I started school, people felt that I was not going to be successful. At the age of four I started speech lessons because basically I could not speak well enough for anyone to understand me. The story goes downhill from here.

The first grade was a struggle. I not only had difficulty speaking, but also felt nervous about the fact that I was expected to learn to read and I just couldn't do it. The second grade was not much better. I still struggled with the inability to read. It was in the third grade that the school district built a new school close to my home. I remember going there with my parents and helping to get the school ready so that we could move to the new one. However, things were still not much better as far as my schooling was concerned and did not get better for the next two years.

It was in the fifth grade. Mrs. Wakefield was my teacher, and if ever there was a teacher that deserved a

gold star, it was her. She did not make me feel defeated. On the contrary, she did her best to let me know that I could be whatever I wanted to be. And that is just what I did.

For the past 22 years, I have been a fifth grade teacher. Because of Mrs. Wakefield's influence on my life,

I am now encouraging students who have had difficulties in their lives to believe that they can overcome any difficulty and become someone. I have won numerous awards up to now, such as Teacher of the Year. I owe it all to one fifth grade teacher who believed in me and challenged me to be all that I could be. 56. The writer ______ when he was in the third grade.

A. did better in reading B. began speech lessons C. went to a new school

D. received a high award

57. We can learn from the passage that the writer ______. A. is a very successful teacher now B. thinks teaching is a challenging job C, has solved problems with his own effort D. works in the same school with Mrs. Wakefield 58. What is the writer's purpose in writing the passage? A. To express his devotion to his work.

B. To show his respect to a special teacher. C. To share his leaching experience with us. D. To tell us his story of overcoming difficulties.

B

People living in the UK take quite a few holidays abroad and in this country each year. Choices made

about where to go, how to get there and what to do while there can either benefit or harm the environment.

While on holiday

Many of the things you can do to he greener on holiday will be the same things you can do at home—but

there arc also sonic extra things too, like avoiding gifts made from endangered plants and animals. Here are some suggestions:

●Making the most of locally produced food and drink, and local activities and attractions will support

people in the area you are visiting and reduce the need for further environmental influence from transport;

●Switching off any air conditioning, heating and lights will help reduce climate change effect;

●Save water—some countries suffer from water shortages and saving water can help avoid damage to

our natural habitats （栖息地）. Endangered species （物种）

Some gifts and foods available in some countries can be made from endangered plants or animals. Check

before you buy, but if you doubt, avoid animal and plant gifts. More details of the types of products to avoid and illegal trade hotspots can be found on the Souvenir Alert webpage. Making a positive contribution to the place you are visiting

There are ways in which your holiday can help support local people and the environment;

●There are many opportunities to volunteer and help with projects that conserve and improve natural

habitats;

●When you are away, or if you are looking for somewhere to visit, you can support projects or attractions

which protect wildlife, such as nature reserves and conservation projects. 59. According to the passage, we can ____ to help reduce climate change effect.

A. make good use of water C. save electricity

B. buy local food and drink D. go around on foot

60. We can infer from the passage that ____.

A. it is not easy for people to travel abroad

B. not everyone can tell an illegal souvenir C. green holidays have been accepted by people D. volunteer work is a must for protecting natural habitats

61. The passage is mainly about _________

C

Some people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?

Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbooks (平装本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.

Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books., science textbook, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets. 62. It can be inferred from the passage that ________. A. TV programs are a main provider of knowledge B. cinemas are the best choice in getting information C. reading is a cheap way of learning and having fun D. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself

63. What does the sentences ―Television has not killed reading, however‖ underlined in the second paragraph suggest?

A. People only need reading, though. B. Reading is still necessary today.

A. travel dos and don'ts B. the harm done to the environment C. greener choices for holiday D. tips on protecting endangered species

C. Reading is more fun than television. D. Watching television doesn’t help reading. 64. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Fewer and fewer people will buy books. B. A good dictionary should be kept in every home. C. Books with hard covers sell better than paperbooks. D. More people like TV programs about famous men.

D

Moods (心情), say the experts, are feelings that are likely to become fixed, having effects on one’s outlook(way of looking at things) for hours, days or even weeks. That’s great if your mood is a pleasant one, but a problem if you are sad, anxious, angry, or simply lonely.

Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out; sometimes, though, there is no one to listen. Scientists offers a lot of tranquilizers(镇静剂) and anti-anxiety drugs. What many people don’t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug methods to make you free from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs, and have the added benefit of being nonpoisonous(无毒的). So next time you feel out of sorts, don’t head for the drug store―try the following method.

Of all the mood-changing self-help techniques, aerobic exercises (有氧运动) seem to be the best cure for a bad mood. ―If you could keep the exercise, you’d be in high spirits,‖ says Kathryn Lance, author of Running for Health and Beauty.

Researchers have explained biochemical and various other changes that make exercises compare favorably to drugs as a mood-raiser. Physical work such as housework, however, does little. The key is aerobic exercises – running, cycling, walking, swimming, or other repetitive and sustained activities that increase the heart rate and circulation(循环), and improve the body’s use of oxygen. Do them for at least 20 minutes a time, three to five times a week.

65. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.

A. when one is in a bad mood, he or she must not work very well. B. the best way to overcome a bad mood is to talk to oneself C. some drugs are more effective than physical exercises D. taking drugs is at risk of being poisonous

66. The phrase \

A. put things in order

B. are in a bad mood

C. search for tranquilizers D. want a mood-raiser

67. Which of the following best describes the organization of this passage? A. An exercise and its importance are explained B. A problem is examined and solutions are given C. Two different views of a problem are presented D. Recent developments in medicine are described 阅读七选五（请将答案写在答题纸上）

__1__This was not because the woods and fields were always far away, but because they were too far from the city to permit people to make a day trip between morning and nightfall.

__2__ He decided to turn his little school house into a dormitory for the summer holidays. Anyone who brought his sleeping bag and cooking equipment along could stay there for a very small quantity of money. The idea was a success. A few years later, the school house was much too small to hold the many young people who wanted to stay there. __3__ This was the first hostel.

Today, young students and workers of every country can meet in the hostel and get to know each other. When young people arrive at the hostel, they have only to show their cards of membership in a hostel organization in their own country. __4__

Often, at the evening meal, a group of boys and girls from various parts of the country or world will happen to meet at the same hostel. They may put their meal together and prepare a dinner with many kinds of dishes. Sometimes a program will be organized after the meal with dances, songs, or short talks followed by a question period. __5__ For this reason, a few weeks spent ―hostelling‖ can be just as useful a part of one’s education as classes in school.

A. In 1970, a young German school master had an idea which changed this situation. B. People can stay in the hostel if they brought enough equipment with them. C. One can learn a lot about other places, just by meeting people from those places. D. As a result, a dormitory was set up in an old castle nearby.

E. For years, children in the industrial areas of Europe seldom left their cities to see the beauties of the

countryside.

F. More and more young people went to the hostel for summer holidays. G. This card will permit them to stay in a hostel all over the world for low prices.
