At the age of 13, I remember that my father would take me on short outings on Saturdays. On the way 31 from these trips, Dad frequently 32 at the Dairy Queen for 10-cent ice cream cones. Not every single time, just often enough. I couldn’t 33 it, but I could hope and 34 from the time we started heading home to that 35__ where we would either go straight for the ice cream or turn and go home 36 . That corner meant mouth-watering excitement or 37 . One day, we were 38 home, and I was hoping and praying for the beautiful sound of his 39 . It came. “Would you like an ice cream today?” “That sounds 40 , Dad!” But then he said, “It sounds good to me too, son. Would you like to 41 me today?” “Twenty cents!” I thought to myself, “I can afford it. I got 25 cents’ pocket money and some extra for odd jobs. Well, 42 it is enough, ice cream isn’t a good use of it.” Therefore, I said, “Well, in that case, I guess I’ll 43 .” My father just said, “Okay, Son.” But as we headed home, I realized how wrong I was and begged him to 44 . But he just said, “That’s okay, we don’t really need one.” I felt 45 for my selfishness and ungratefulness. He didn’t mind, or 46 act disappointed. From that I 47 generosity goes two ways and gratefulness sometimes costs more than “thank you”.

Every year, when the air turns sharp, I think about my mother. She was always the first to point out the signs of autumn. There were lessons to be learned from nature in the fall. To mother, autumn was a great book that she’d make up a sea of stories. “You must remember,” she would say, “that the leaves which die in the fall are born again in the spring.” Balance and counterbalance; harmony and disharmony; lose and renewal. These seemed to be the themes that ran through my mother’s stories ─ and her life. A memory: when I was seven, on the night of my mother’s fortieth birthday, she took me outside to stand beneath a bright moon. “Look through these,” said my mother, handing me a pair of binoculars(双筒望远镜). “You see that reddish part? That’s the Sea of Tranquility. And the blue shadow to the side? That’s called the Ocean of Storms.” Then she said something about how in life it was necessary to learn to navigate both. My mother loved the wind. When I was growing up, she would often recite this poem to me: Who has seen the wind? Neither you nor I, But when the trees bow down Their heads, The wind is passing by. There’s an old photo of my mother, who is about ten years old, holding the small gray cat. The wind is blowing her long and dark hair. This girl who loved the wind is smiling — perhaps at the feel of the breeze touching her face. As I smiled at the child my mother was, I could think of her without deep feelings of sadness and loss. I thought I could begin to find my new place in the world without her. And so I sat the other night on the floor of my room holding my mother’s handbag. I had brought it home with me from the hospital on the day of her death, but had not been able to open it. Inside, along with the wallet and photos of her grandchildren, I found a folded piece of paper upon which my mother had written these lines from nature writer Wendell Berry: “Always in the big woods when you step off alone into a new place there will be, along with curiosity and excitement, a little nagging of dread. It is the ancient fear of the unknown, your first bond with the wilderness you are going into.” Just the sort of thing Mother would say, who could still teach me after all these years. I went downstairs and opened the door. And suddenly a breeze blew in. “You’ve been six years out of the wind,” I thought. Then I found myself saying, to no one in particular. Who has seen the wind? Neither you nor I, But when the trees bow down Their heads, The wind is passing by. 51. Why was my mother always the first to point out the signs of autumn? A. Because she believed autumn was the best season of a year. B. Because there were lessons to be learned from nature in autumn. C. Because only then could she make up stories. D. Because the evening sky was more interesting. 52. What were the themes that ran through my mother’s stories — and her life? A. Balance and counterbalance. B. Harmony and disharmony. C. Loss and renewal. D. All the above. 53. What did my mother love? A. The sky. B. Little animals. C. The wind. D. The poem. 54. What could I find without my mother? A. My new place in the world. B. A folded piece of paper. C. The poem she loved best. D. The wallet and the photos. 55. Which do you think is the best title of the passage? A. A great mother, a plain living B. I’ll never forget my mother C. A gentle breeze and a cat D. The girl who loved the wind

Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself. Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world. The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it. It might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can't run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true. The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way. Good luck! 56. You need to build a positive self-image when you______. A. dare to challenge yourself B. feel it hard to change yourself C. have a high opinion of yourself D. are unconfident about yourself 57. According to the passage, our self-images ______. A. have positive effects B. are often changeable C. are probably untrue D. have different functions 58. How should you change your self-image according to the passage? A. To change the way you think. B. To make your life successful. C. To understand your own world. D. To keep a different image of others. 59. The passage is mainly talking about______. A. how to prepare for your success B. how to build a positive self-image C. how to face challenges in your life D. how to develop your good qualities 60. Who are the intended readers of the passage? A. Parents. B. Educators. C. Adolescents. D. People in general.

Very early on the morning of June 29, 1991, a heavy fog hung over the wheat field in southern England. Carrie and Morgenstern were watching the field. Although they could see nothing through the thick fog, they kept their cameras running. By 6 a.m. the fog began to lift. A remarkable pair of circles was seen in the wheat field. Rushing down the hill, they found that the wheat within the two circles had been flattened into precise clockwise swirls. Stalks (麦秆) were bent but not broken. Outside the circles the wheat was untouched. It had been silent all night. Although the field was muddy, there were no footprints or other marks. The circles seemed to have come from nowhere. “I can’t explain it,” admits Mike Carrie. Carrie is not alone. Since the early 1980s, more than 2000 circles have appeared in farmers’ fields. Most circles form at night between May and August. Some believe the circles are caused by hedgehogs(刺猬) or deer. Others attribute them to the UFOs. “The circles are messages given by those who come from outer space,” says Michael Green. “Perhaps they are trying to get in touch with us.” Pat Delgado has made researches on crop circles since 1981. He believes that they are caused by “some form of earth energy”. In several circles, he recorded an unusual noise which seemed to have been made by some “electronic”. Most scientists think that there’s no scientific basis to back up Green’s or Delgado’s theories. Some of them say, “We think they’re nothing but a hoax(骗局).” In September 1991, Doug Bower and Dave Chorley claimed that since 1979 they had made circles throughout southern England to fool people who believed in UFO. “We got down on our hands and knees and used an iron bar, so that it looked as though a UFO had landed there.” Since the early 1980s, Dr Terence Meaden has visited more than 1000 circles. Now he thinks he may have the answer. He believes true crop circles are made by vortex. When it hits the ground, it flattens the crop in spiral patterns. Each northern summer, these surprising formations turn British cornfields into artists’ paintings. “Crop circles are an amusing part of the silly season—though farmers might not agree,” says Royal Society’s Sir Francis Graham-smith. 61. On the morning of June 29, 1991, Carrie and Morgenstern hoped to _______. A. record an important thing B. see something funny C. find nature’s secret D. draw a conclusion 62. Mike Carrie was at what he saw. A. satisfied B. amused C. surprised D. interested 63. Most scientists consider the supernatural theories of Green and Delgado are_______. A. meaningful B. reasonable C. instructive D. against the law of science 64. The crop circle phenomenon _______. A. has come to an end B. makes scientists puzzled C. is a bad thing D. makes farmers amused 65. What is the best title of this passage? A. A Clever Hoax B. A Thick Fog C. Crop Circles D. Earth Energy

Going shopping seems easy, but actually it takes a lot of learning, especially in America. In fact, many Americans who are not so well-off often shop at “sales” or at special stores that sell things at low prices, which you may find interesting. In America, the important rule of dressing is that one should change his or her clothes every day. For example, in an American college, neither professors nor students are seen in the same clothes two days in a row. So you may find it necessary to buy more clothes than you have in China. While you are shopping in the States, you will discover that prices range considerably from time to time. The purchase of used, second-hand clothing, furniture, or other household articles may be an excellent way of saving money. Most second-hand clothes are of pretty good quality. If you are going to settle down in the States and want some furniture, you may go to a “loan closet”, where furniture rents at low cost, or you may also go to a “furniture exchange” place in the community. Sheets, blankets, and other bedclothes go on sale in most communities twice a year. Advertisements for “white sales” on bed linen, towels, etc., often appear in January, as well as in May, June or July. Once or twice every season, there will be “garage sales”, where you can get almost anything, from a yacht to a pair of shoes, at low prices. Prices at “discount stores” and “thrift shops” are also as low as you can imagine. When shopping for food, you should look for special prices for various items that are put on sale weekly. To economize, it would be a good idea for you to plan the weekly menu according to what is on sale, including in it the meats, vegetables, fruits, etc. that can be bought at special prices that week. Exchange and return policies vary from store to store. You should also keep in mind that exchange and return policies for sales items can be different from standard store policies, especially if the price of the items has been reduced. Ask the merchant about their exchange and return policies before making your purchase. Obtaining an exchange or a return without a store receipt is often difficult. So, to save yourself the headache, you’d better hold on to any paper or other proof of purchase. 66. People shopping in America will discover ________. A. American goods are excellent B. most clothes come from China C. prices vary much sometimes D. used clothes are of poor quality 67. A person who needs furniture can ________. A. exchange their goods for furniture B. settle in a place that has furniture C. get some free of charge D. rent some at low cost 68. At a “white sale”, one can buy ________. A. almost anything B. meats, vegetables, fruits C. bed linen, towels D. shoes at low prices 69. Garage sales are held ________. A. once or twice every three months B. once or twice every year C. from time to time D. in January, May, June or July 70. What does “any paper or other proof” in the last paragraph refer to? A. The exchange and return policy. B. A store receipt. C. A sales item. D. The standard store policy.

Fathers who were spanked (打屁股) as children are less likely to spank their own children than mothers who were spanked when they were young – they spanked their children very little, according to a study. Researchers wanted to find out whether parents nowadays follow the practices of their own mothers but found parents today were showing a lot more affection (喜爱) for their children, reading to them more and spanking them less. “We are surprised that the second-generation (代) mothers seem to learn a lot about parenting skills from their own mothers, while fathers don’t follow their mothers so much,” said researcher Jonathan. The study of 1,133 young adult parents found big changes in parenting practices. Generally speaking, the second-generation parents were much less likely to spank their children than their own parents who often spanked them. The second-generation mothers who were spanked at least once a week when they were young were found to be nearly half more likely to spank their own children, compared to mothers who weren’t spanked as young children. Fathers spanked as children were less likely to spank their own children. The study found only 28% of the second-generation fathers spanked their children, no matter whether they had been spanked by their own parents when they were young, compared to 43% of the second-generation mothers. “A little spanking seems to stop fathers from spanking their own children later in life,” said Vespa. “The evidence (迹象) shows that mothers are much stricter with their children in the family than fathers today. Fathers spank their children little because the experiences of being spanked deter them from doing that.” In general, the amount of affection that parents show for their children has increased greatly over the generations. 60% of fathers and 73% of mothers in the second-generation show their children much affection and praise them every week, compared to only 40% of their own parents showing affection weekly. Reading to children has also increased clearly. Nowadays the second-generation mothers read to their children much more than their own parents. 71. What’s the researchers’ purpose in doing the research? (No more than 15 words.) _____________________________________________________________________ 72. What do the second-generation mothers learn from their mothers? (No more than 10 words.) _________________________________________________________________________ 73. Please explain the underlined word “deter” in English. (No more than 3 words.) __________________________________________________________________________ 74. If the second-generation fathers were spanked by their parents when they were young, what influence can this experience have on them?
