When I took him my shoes, he at first told me, “I haven’t time. Take them to the other fellow on the main street ; he’ll fix them for you right away. ” But I’d had my eye on his shop for a long time. Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather, I knew he was a skilled craftsman. “No, ” I replied, “the other fellow can’t do it well. ” “The other fellow” was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys “while-U-wait”— without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys. They work carelessly, and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap (鞋带) you might as well just throw away the pair. The man saw I wouldn’t give in, and he smiled. He wiped his hands on his blue apron ( 围裙), looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said, “Come back in a week. ” I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boots off a shelf. “See what I can do? ” he said with pride. “Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work. ” When I got back into the street, the world seemed brand-new to me. He was something out of an ancient legend, this old craftsman with his way of speaking familiarly, his very strange, dusty felt hat, his funny accent from who-knows-where and, above all, his pride in his craft. These are times when nothing is important but the bottom line, when you can do things in any old way as long as it “pays”, when, in short, people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption(消费) rather than a way to realize their own abilities. In such a period it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done. 56. Which of the following is true about the old cobbler? A. He was equipped with the best repairing tools. B. He was the only cobbler in the Marais. C. He was proud of his skills. D. He was a native Parisian. 57. The sentence “He was something out of an ancient legend. . . ”(Paragraph 7 ) implies that _____. A. nowadays you can hardly find anyone like him B. it was difficult to communicate with this man C. the man was very strange D. the man was too old 58. According to the author, many people work just to _____. A. realize their abilities B. gain happiness C. make money D. gain respect 59. This story wants to tell us that _____. A. craftsmen make a lot of money B. whatever you do, do it well C. craftsmen need self-respect D. people are born equal (B) Chelsea Clinton, the 31-year-old daughter of former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, is stepping into her own spotlight. According to the New York Times, NBC has hired Clinton to become a full-time special correspondent(记者) for NBC News. Her feature stories will reportedly be used in the “Making a Difference” series, which runs on “NBC Nightly News”. The sections attract people who volunteer to improve the lives of others in their communities. When Bill Clinton won the presidency in 1992, the first lady asked the press to keep Chelsea out of the public eyes. As a young adult, Chelsea continued to avoid media attention in order to attend college and quietly enter the business world. Once her mother decided to run for the presidency in 2007, however, Chelsea made hundreds of public appearances, mostly on college campuses, to support the campaign. More recently, she has worked for New York University and promoted her father’s latest book. She is currently pursuing a doctor’s degree at Oxford. Clinton is the second daughter of a president hired by NBC News; Jenna Bush Hager, daughter of former President George W. Bush, works as a correspondent for NBC’s “Today” show. 60.

About ninety years ago most people shopped in small stores that were owned by one person or a family. Women went from the bakery to the butcher’s to the grocer and went on to the fruit and vegetable seller in order to get their food for the week. Then, about sixty years ago, supermarkets were born. In a supermarket, people could get all the different kinds of food they needed without going to different stores. The next big change in shopping in the United States was the shopping mall. A shopping mall is a group of stores under one roof. Because malls allowed people to shop without worrying about the weather, they soon became very popular. The mall became a place for people to socialize in addition to shopping. If you walk through a mall, you will see older people sitting, chatting and drinking coffee. Malls are places for teenagers to hang out. Many teens will often just “go to the mall” and spend time with their friends. The recent change in American shopping was the superstore. Large chain stores such as Wal-Mart, Office Depot and Toys“R”Us have been built all across the United States. Because they are so large, they can buy goods at a great discount and sell them much cheaper than smaller stores. Sometimes, when they are built near small towns, many of the small town stores have to close. They just cannot compete with their giant neighbors. And now, online shopping is becoming more and more popular all over the States. People are too busy to go to the physical stores, so they go shopping over the Internet. Online shopping has lots of advantages. For instance, online stores are usually available 24 hours a day. Searching or browsing online shops can be faster than browsing the physical stores. While, online shopping also has its disadvantages. People are at higher risk of being cheated on the part of the merchants than in a physical store. And privacy of personal information may be let out. 68. Which of the following shows the right order of shopping development in the United States? ①small stores ②superstores ③shopping malls ④shopping online ⑤supermarkets A. ①②③④⑤ B. ①⑤②③④ C. ②③④①⑤ D. ①⑤③②④ 69. Which is the place for people to spend time with others according to the passage? A. Small stores. B. Shopping malls. C. Supermarkets. D. Superstores. 70. Why can the superstores sell products at much lower prices? A. Because they can buy goods at a reduction in price. B. Because they are across the United States. C. Because they sell all kinds of products people need. D. Because they are built near small towns. 71. What’s the disadvantage of online shopping according to the passage? A. Wasting time. B. Fixed prices. C. Leaking personal information. D. No chance to do physical activities. (E) It is easy for us to tell our friends from our enemies. But can other animals do the same? Elephants can! They can use their sense of vision and smell to tell the difference between people who pose a threat and those who do not. In Kenya, researchers found that elephants react differently to clothing worn by men of the Maasai and Kamba ethnic groups. Young Maasai men spear animals and thus pose a threat to elephants; Kamba men are mainly farmers and are not a danger to elephants. In an experiment conducted by animal scientists, elephants were first presented with clean clothing or clothing that had been worn for five days by either a Maasai or a Kamba man. When the elephants detected the smell of clothing worn by a Maasai man, they moved away from the smell faster and took longer to relax than when they detected the smells of either clothing worn by Kamba men or clothing that had not been worn at all. Garment color also plays a role, though in a different way. In the same study, when the elephants saw red clothing not worn before, they reacted angrily, as red is typically worn by Maasai men. Rather than running away as they did with the smell, the elephants acted aggressively toward the red clothing. The researchers believe that the elephants’ emotional reactions are due to their different interpretations of the smells and the sights. Smelling a potential danger means that a threat is nearby and the best thing to do is run away and hide. Seeing a potential threat without its smell means that risk is low. Therefore, instead of showing fear and running away, the elephants express their anger and become aggressive. 72. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE about Kamba and Maasai people? A. Maasai people are a threat to elephants. B. Kamba people raise elephants for farming. C. Both Kamba and Maasai people are elephant hunters. D. Both Kamba and Maasai people traditionally wear red clothing. 73. How did the elephants react to smell in the study? A. They attacked a man with the smell of new clothing. B. They needed time to relax when smelling something unfamiliar. C. They became anxious when they smelled Kamba-scented clothing. D. They were frightened and ran away when they smelled their enemies. 74. What is the main idea of this passage? A. Elephants use sight and smell to detect danger. B. Elephants attack people who wear red clothing. C. Scientists are now able to control elephants’ emotions. D. Some Kenyan tribes understand elephants’ emotions very well. 75. What can be inferred about the elephants’ behavior from this passage? A. Elephants learn from their experience. B. Elephants have sharper sense of smell than sight. C. Elephants are more intelligent than other animals. D. Elephants tend to attack rather than escape when in danger. 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共35分) 第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分) 第一节 短文填词(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分) 阅读下面短文,根据以下提示:1)汉语提示,2)首字母提示,3)语境提示,在每个空格内填入一个适当的英语单词,并将该词完整地写在右边相对应的横线上。所填单词要求意义准确,拼写正确。 Like most of my schoolmates, I have neither brothers nor sisters—in other ____ , I am an only child.

The topic of my speech today is “Being a good partner”. Cooperation is a good way for us to learn from each other as well as to save us a lot of time and energy. Thus we may complete our work successfully and efficiently. We will be lucky enough to find someone we like to cooperate with, which will make us feel very happy because we can stick together through thick and thin/share our joys and sadnesses. However, it can be difficult to team up with someone we dislike. In this case, learn to put up with some of his shortcomings and try to discover his strengths. How can we become a good partner? In my opinion, firstly, we should try to listen to others’ opinions. If he makes mistakes, try to point them out in a polite way. Besides, never force your ideas on others. Thank you for your listening! 版权所有:高考资源网(www.ks5u.com)
