32．This sweater fits me，but I can’t afford to buy ________.I have to choose ________ which is cheap enough for me.
A．it；that B．that；it
C．it；one D．that；the one
解析：选C。考查代词。句意：这件毛衣我穿很合身，但我买不起它，我得挑一件对我来说够便宜的。第一空指代前边提到的那件sweater，要用人称代词it；第二空泛指一件毛衣，要用one，相当于a sweater。
33．Gone are the days when China，a major economic power in Asia today，________ at the mercy of others.

请阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
He wasn’t sick.He wasn’t old.And he wasn’t losing.He had a very good final season and won his last game in 2008.And then he walked away.
Lloyd Carr is 66 years old and he walked away at the age of 62.That’s a few years earlier than retirement (退休) age in America and many years earlier than some college football coaches say goodbye.How was Carr，who coached University of Michigan，able to leave so easily?
“It can be intoxicating，” Carr admits.“The Saturday afternoons and the crowds.And when you win，there’s nothing like it.”
But the job needs hard work.The pressure to win.The endless training.The hours are so long that sleeping at the office is a normal thing.I reported Carr’s career at Michigan from 1995 to 2007.I saw him run onto the field before 100,000 cheering fans，saw him enjoy a share of a national championship with a 12－0 season.
And when I visited him recently in retirement，the difference was noticeable.He seems much calmer，relaxed，more at peace.He says，“As much fun as it is，there’s a period when you have other things to deal with.”
Carr knew he wanted to travel，see the world，read more，do other work.He is now connected with a children’s hospital，does some speaking，plays golf，and enjoys relaxing with his wife，Laurie，and their many grandchildren.
Several of today’s big-name coaches are all about Carr’s retirement age.Nick Saban turns 59 this month.Jim Tressel is 57.Frank Beamer is already 63.None of them seems to be slowing down.
So when，I ask Carr，is the right moment to leave such a great job?
He thinks.Finally，he says，“When you love it and can still walk away from it.That’s the right moment.”
【解题导语】 Lloyd Carr在其职业生涯的高峰毅然选择了隐退。
56．Lloyd Carr stopped working as a coach because he________.
A．was too old

C．had other things to experience
D．followed others’ examples
解析：选C。细节理解题。通读全文，尤其是第五段As much fun as it is，there’s a period when you have other things to deal with可知，Lloyd Carr在其职业高峰期隐退是因为他还有很多别的事要做。故答案选C项。
57．The underlined word “intoxicating” in Paragraph 3 probably means________.
A．exciting B．disappointing
C．surprising D．puzzling
解析：选A。词义猜测题。根据后面的“The Saturday afternoons and the crowds.And when you win，there’s nothing like it.”可知，观众、赢球都是令人兴奋、高兴的。故答案选A项。

A．was always free after retirement
B．was a failure as a football coach
C．missed the time when he coached
D．enjoyed his retirement life very much

B
Because of a tsunami (海啸)，which has killed more than 500 people，a sunken ship that may be several centuries old has been found off Indonesian islands recently，officials said Thursday.The ship contained many green and white ceramics (陶器)．
The fishermen who found the ship believe the Oct.26 tsunami off the Mentawai islands lifted the 20-foot-long ship from the bottom of the ocean and pushed it closer to the coast，said Mr.Yosmeri，who heads West Sumatra’s Maritime and Fishery Department.
Wooden ships filled with ceramic pots，golden necklaces and valuable spices for centuries made voyages on Indonesian waters.It is a key trade route linking Asia with Europe and the Middle East.The pots，jugs and bowls found last week still need to be tested to determine their origin and age，Yosmeri said，but he added that they are similar to what have been found inside sunken Chinese ships.
Local fishermen said they found the wooden ship after spotting its mast (桅杆) 4 miles from the beach off Pagai Island，which was hardest hit by the tsunami.They jumped into the water and found several well-preserved jugs and pots in a ship.They said there were more treasures in the body of the ship.
Pictures of the ceramics have been sent to the capital，Jakarta，and teams of researchers will be sent to the area soon to carry out a more careful search，Yosmeri said.
【解题导语】 印尼渔民发现了一艘沉船，船上有大量的陶器等。

D．was lifted by a tsunami
解析：选D。细节理解题。结合文章首段Because of a tsunami...及第二段the Oct.26 tsunami off the Mentawai islands lifted the 20-foot-long ship from the bottom of the ocean可知该船是被海啸从海底翻起来的。
61．The pots，jugs and bowls will be tested so that people can know________.
A．where they were from
B．what they were made from
C．how they were made
D．who made them
解析：选A。细节理解题。根据文章第三段第三句The pots，jugs and bowls found last week still need to be tested to determine their origin and age可知要做进一步的检测来确定这些陶器的来源和年代。
62．What will the researchers do next?
A．They will try to find out the value of the treasures.
B．They will come to study at the place of discovery soon.
C．They will take more photos of the treasures.
D．They will send these treasures to Jakarta.
解析：选B。细节理解题。根据文章最后一段teams of researchers will be sent to the area soon to carry out a more careful search可知选B项。
63．Where can you most probably read this passage?
A．In a children’s book.
B．In a science novel.
C．In the latest news.

解析：选C。文章出处题。本文是一篇新闻报道，报道了印尼渔民发现了一艘沉船，船上有大量的陶器等。故C为正确答案。
C
If you want to succeed in life，you need to express the proper body language，with or without having to say anything else.You will certainly notice a whole new reaction from people if you use the power of body language.
Relax your shoulders，keep your hands at your sides (never inside your pockets) and breathe slowly.Have a warm，welcoming facial expression as if you look forward to communicating.Depending on the situation，you may smile when appropriate.
Face the other person or your audience and keep eye contact as much as possible throughout the talk.Nodding and tilting (倾斜) your head closer can show that you are listening.
Do not fold (交叉) your arms，look down at the floor or put your hands in your pockets.These can show that you are uninterested.If you have any comments，you can show them in negative but respectful ways like raising your eyebrows.
A lot of your body language can show how confident，interested，bored，angry or nervous you are.Keeping your head up throughout the entire conversation can show that you are very much into the conversation at hand.
You may feel free to use a few hand gestures to emphasize (强调) a point.If you’re enumerating things，it’s better to use each of your fingers as you mention each item to help your audience keep track.
Pacing will help you create more ground if you have a larger crowd to communicate with.It will also show confidence on your part as you think of more things to say.
Be very careful when touching the other person since you are crossing the boundaries (界限) of body language through actual contact.Remember that in body language，it is your body that does the talking for you.
【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了身体语言在人们生活中的作用。
64．According to the text，if you find a listener raising his eyebrows，he may________.
A．try to show his anger
B．want to give his own opinion
C．not understand what you say

65．The underlined word “enumerating” in the text may mean “________”．
A．considering B．judging
C．numbering D．discussing
解析：选C。词义猜测题。从倒数第三段的it’s better to use each of your fingers as you mention each item to help your audience keep track.可知，在列举或者计数的时候，要使用手指来帮助听众跟上，故选C项。
66．What’s the author’ s suggestion if you have a larger crowd to communicate with?
A．To walk at a slow pace.
B．To shake hands with every person.
C．To look down at the floor.
D．To fold your arms.
解析：选A。细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句可知，如果与“你”交流的人比较多，建议“你”能慢慢移动步子去跟不同的人交流，故A为正确选项。
67．What is the most suitable title for the text?
A．The power of body language
B．The attraction of body language
C．The origin of body language
D．The understanding of body language
解析：选A。标题归纳题。文章第一段尤其是第二句就点明了文章的主题。本文主要介绍了身体语言在人们生活中的作用，它可以帮助人们在交谈中反映你的内心世界的喜怒等，故A项符合主题。
D
Getting kids interested in science at an early age is very important.It’s easier than you think.Science does not have to be something mysterious.It is happening all around us，and you can use everyday things to encourage your children’s interest and enrich their knowledge.
Most parents don’t believe that they can help their children with science.In fact，you don’t need an advanced (高级的) scientific degree.All you need is a willingness to try，to observe (观察) the world，and to take time to encourage your children’s natural curiosity(好奇)instead of compelling them to learn from a book.
You can help by having an active attitude toward science yourself.Ask your children questions about the things you see every day.Then listen to their answers without judging.It will improve their confidence (信心)，and help you find what your children do or do not know.
You can turn everyday activities into science projects.For example，don’t just say how bright the moon is on night.Ask questions like “Why is it brighter tonight？”or “Why does its shape change？”You can observe what the moon is like throughout a month，and naturally turn that activity into a science project.For a child that likes cooking，try making a cake and asking why the cake rises.
Different kids need different kinds of science projects.A rock collection may interest your young daughter but your elder son may need something else.Fortunately，it’s not hard to find plenty of fun projects.Knowing your children is the best way to find enjoyable learning activities.Here are some more tips：
—Choose activities that are the right level of difficulty.If you are not sure，pick something easy since you don’t want to discourage a child.
—Read the suggested ages on any project or book，but then make sure that the activity is proper for your children.
—Consider how well the type of project matches your children’s learning styles.Is the project meant to be done alone or in a group? Will it need an adult’s help?
—Choose activities that match your environment.A city full of bright lights at night may not be the best place to study the stars.
—Let your children help choose activities.When children pick something they are interested in，they will enjoy it and learn more from it.

“Everybody loves a bargain.” is a well-known saying.One person’s useless, ugly, or broken object can be another person’s bargain.That is why so many Americans do not throw things away.They put them outside their house.They put on a “For Sale” sign.And, as simple as that, they have a yard sale.
The sellers put a paid announcement in a local newspaper.It tells when and where the yard sale will take place.These sales are very popular during weekends in spring, summer, and autumn.Early in the morning, all the things to be sold are carried out of the house.Then they sit all day in the sunlight－like tired guests at a party－waiting for someone to take them home.
Just about anything can be sold at a yard sale. Sometimes, there are more clothes than anything else. Cooking equipment is also popular. So are old toys, tools, books，tables, and chairs.Then there are objects called “white elephants”．A white elephant is something that you think is extremely ugly or useless.It may be an electric light shaped like a fish.You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it.To someone else, however, it might be a thing of beauty and joy.
Some people go to yard sales to find a special thing that they collect.It may be old toy trains, for example, or paintings of dogs.Experts say more Americans are collecting old things now than ever before.Most people who go to yard sales, however, are not looking for anything special.They might buy an object simply because it costs so little.They enjoy negotiating over prices, even if they really do not need the object.Later, they may hold their own yard sale to sell all the things they have bought.
【解题导语】 本文是说明文，介绍美国的旧物大甩卖。它不仅给人们提供获得廉价品的机会，而且还是一些人“淘宝”的机会。

A．something that can cause a feeling of pain
B．something disliked by the owners while appreciated by others

73．Most people go to yard sales to ________.

B．look for something special
C．find a bargain
D．kill their time

A．It may not be held when the weather is very cold.
B．It can last for a whole day.
C．It is usually held with a party.

解析：选C。正误判断题。分析文章第二段可知，C项与原文信息不符，故选C。文章第二段最后一句是比喻旧物就像在晚会上疲惫的客人等待着有人带他们回家，而不是真正地举行晚会。

My Out-of-class Activities
My spare time is full of interesting activities.I read all kinds of books in the reading-room whenever I have time，so that I can learn a lot in the library besides in class in this way.Sports and games keep me healthy and strong enough to deal with all difficulties.Among all sports，volleyball is my favourite.I often play volleyball with my classmates.Sometimes I take part in social practice with my classmates outside of the school.For example，we go to plant trees in spring.In this way，I gain a lot of social experience and learn to contribute to the society.
Out-of-class activities are quite necessary for us students.Through these activities we can learn many things that can’t be learned in class.
