Our friend could not 40 the operation, which put him into deep 41 . I didn’t know how to help him because I didn’t have any money either. 42 , I never lost hope. Instead I tried to think of other 43 and told him not to worry because everything would be all right. Before I left the hospital, I talked to the surgeon and asked him to do the surgery, saying I would pay the expenses the next day 44 I had that kind of money. Well, I must have been 45 because the surgeon agreed to do it! But how was I going to get that much money? All I knew was that I needed to help my friend! Although it could be 46 to deal with this kind of situation, I decided to make some efforts. I tried to borrow money but failed. I tried 47 my things but no one wanted them. Then I had the idea of talking to my 48 . I asked him if I could have my next two months’ salary in advance—without even thinking on how I would 49 for two months with no money. He was surprised and asked me the reason. I told him that I had a friend who was really in need. 50 I convinced him too and then he gave my two months’ salary without any 51 ! Upon getting the money, I ran to the hospital and paid all the bills. My friend didn’t know how to thank me. I just said, “Come on! Give me a 52 !” Friendship may not only be found at the happy moment but sometimes you can find it on the 53 time in your life!

It was 10 p.m.—two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy. “You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said. “Dad!” cried the boy. “There will be other fish,” said his father. “Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were in sight in the moonlight. He looked again at his father. Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed. He threw the huge bass into the black water. The big fish disappeared. The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish. That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place. And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish ... again and again ... every time he has an ethical (道德的) decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult. 56. From the text we know that the father _________. A. didn’t love his son B. always disagreed with his son C. disliked the huge fish D. was firm and stubborn 57. The successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because _____. A. they might catch a big fish there B. it was a most popular fishing spot C. he was taught a moral lesson there D. their children enjoyed fishing there 58. What does the story imply (suggest)? A. It is easy to say something, but difficult to do. B. An ethical decision is always easy to make. C. It’s hard to tell right from wrong sometimes. D. Fishing can help one to make right decisions.

They were examined at the start of the study and again one year later. If kids’ mothers expected them to take more risks and be more rebellious,higher chances of risky behavior were seen. This was also true when kids had bad expectations of themselves. “Sometimes parents expect more negative behavior from their children than they should based on the children’s history of behavior, ” Buchanan said. “Parents shouldn’t be naive (无知的) about the possibility of bad behavior,” she said,“but it’s also a mistake to think that children who are well-behaved will naturally become rebellious at the age of 13. ” “By thinking risk-taking or rebelliousness is normal for teenagers and showing that to their children,parents might add to other messages from society that make teenagers feel that they are strange if they are not willing to take risks or break laws,” she said.“This can mean,for example,that when parents expect teens to drink before they turn 21 or to do other risky behaviors,kids are less likely to refuse to do so later in their lives.” On the other hand,parents’ expectations that teens can exhibit good behaviors and refuse to behave badly or to take risks could help reduce the possibility of bad behavior,Buchanan said.“As a parent,you should put expectations on your children carefully.” 63.What do we know about the study? A.Only mothers were examined. B.Participants were examined twice. C.250 people were examined in the study. D.Christy Buchanan was the only author of the study. 64.What does the underlined part “This was also true” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A.The kids were more likely to take dangerous behavior.

D.Mothers expected their kids to behave badly. 65.Children may be more rebellious if________. A.they know parents think risk-taking is normal B.parents put little expectation on them C.they behave well before they turn 13 D.they are asked not to take risks 66.What might be the most suitable title for the passage? A.Risk-taking is normal for teens. B.Why are my teens behaving badly? C.Don’t expect too much from your teens. D.Bad expectations lead to bad-behaving teens. D Among various programs, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television.And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one is different in style(风格).But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows. Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of “rubbish talk”.The contents on his show are as surprising as can be.For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level.Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people’s lives. Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its top.But Oprah goes in the opposite direction.The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality(质量) of life.Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors. Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society.Jerry ends every show with a “final word”.He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show.Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable. Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone.The show’s main viewers are middleclass Americans.Most of these people have the time, money, and ability to deal with life’s tough problems.Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with the young adults of society.These are 18-to-21-year-olds whose main troubles in life include love, relationship, sex, money and drug.They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show’s exploitation. 67.Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey are __. A. more interesting. B. unusually popular. C. more detailed. D. more formal. 68.Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant, people who watch the shows____. A.remain interested in them. B.are ready to face up to them. C.remain cold to them. D. are willing to get away from them. 69. Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show? A.A new type of robot. B.Nation hatred(憎恨). C.Family income planning. D.Street accident. 70. We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows_____. A.have become the only ones of its kind. B.exploit the weaknesses in human nature. C.appear at different times of the day. D.attract different people. 第三节任务型读写(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分) Of the hundreds of self-change techniques that have been suggested over the centuries, perhaps only a dozen are totally different. Researchers have tried to see which ones work best. Three techniques deserve special mention: they’re powerful, simple and easy to learn. what’s more, individuals who have made successful changes in their lives—changes in eating habits, career paths, coping strategies, and so on—often rely on one or more of the three techniques.To get yourself started in a new direction, try the Three M’s: Modify(改变)your environment The power of modifying one’s space has been well displayed in studies since it was reported in the 1960s for the first time. Psychologist Richard Stuart showed in the 1960s that overweight women could lose pounds by modifying both their eating behavior and “stimulus environment” — for example, eating from smaller plates and confining all food to the kitchen. People who have never tried this are astonished by the enormous effect it often has. I’ve known several people who have overcome nail-biting simply by buying 50 nail files and distributing them everywhere: in their pockets, their desks and their bedrooms. With a nail file always within reach, they tended to groom rather than bite. To change yourself, change your world. Monitor your behavior I’ve been reading research studies on self-monitoring for 20 years, and I’ve conducted some myself. The fact is, if you monitor what you do, you’ll probably do better.Weigh yourself regularly and you may well start to lose weight. Keep a record of what you eat and you’ll probably start eating more wisely. A study by Canadian researchers showed that teenagers arrived more promptly at a swim practice when they were given an attendance sheet to record their arrival times. Sonya Carr and Rebecca Punzo reported that self-monitoring improves academic performance of emotionally disturbed children in reading, mathematics and spelling. Dozens of studies have similar results, all inspired by heightening our awareness of our behavior. Make commitments When you commit yourself to another person, you establish a possibility of reinforcement (后效强化);you’ve automatically arranged for a reward if you stick to it and a punishment if you don’t. It puts some pressure on you, and that’s often just what you need. For instance, if you want to exercise more, arrange to do it with a friend. If you don’t show up, your friend will get angry, and that may be just the ticket to keeping you punctual (准时的). In 1994 Dana Putnam and other researchers showed that patients who made written commitments were far more likely to take prescribed medicine than patients who hadn’t There’s good news here for all of us. We can meet many of the demands and overcome many of the challenges of life with simple skills that anyone can master and that don’t require willpower-in other words, with skill, not will. 单项:Keys: 21 – 25 BCADD 26 – 30 CABCA 31 – 35 AACCA 完型:Keys: 36 –40BCACD 41–45 ACBBD 46–50ADCBA 51– 55CBDAD 阅读:56 – 58 DCA 59 – 62 DDCB 63 – 66 BAAD 67 – 70 BACD 任务型读写: 81.similar 82. successful 83. environment 84. benefit 85. within 86.
