She makes such good use of her other 36 , including her “sixth sense”, that she rarely gives the impression shes 37 anything.Michelle looks after her children pretty much like the rest of us, 38

16、that she doesnt push too hard on them, 39 really benefit a lot from her relaxed attitude. She knows when to clean the house. She moves around so fast that often 40 dont realize shes blind.I 41 this the first time after my six-year-old daughter, Kayla, went to play there. When Kayla came home, she wa

17、s very 42 about her day. She told me they had baked cookies, played games and done art projects. But she was 43 excited about her finger-painting project.“Mom, guess what?” said Kayla, all smiles. “I learned how to 44 colors today! Blue and red make purple, and yellow and blue make green! And Michel

18、le 45 with us.”To my great 46 , my child had learnt about color from a blind friend!Then Kayla continued, “Michelle told me my 47 showed joy, pride and a sense of accomplishment. She really 48 what I was doing!” Kayla said she had never felt how good finger paints felt 49 Michelle showed her how to

19、paint without looking at her paper.I realized Kayla didnt know that Michelle was blind. It had just never 50 in conversation.When I told her, she was 51 for a moment. At first, she didnt believe me. “But Mommy, Michelle knew exactly what was in my picture!” Kayla 52 . And I knew my child was 53 beca

20、use Michelle had listened to Kayla describe her artwork. Michelle had also heard Kaylas 54 in her work. We were silent for a minute. Then Kayla said slowly, “You know, Mommy, Michelle really did see my picture. She just used my 55 .”Indeed, she uses a special type of “vision” that all mothers have.3

24、ople say about English politeness: its everywhere. When squeezing past someone in a narrow aisle, people say “sorry”. When getting off a bus, English passengers say “thank you” rather than the driver. In Germany, people would never dream of doing these things. After all, squeezing past others is som

25、etimes unavoidable, and the bus driver is only doing his job. I used to think the same way, without questioning it, until I started travelling to the British Isles and came to appreciate some more polite ways of interacting (交往) with people.People thank each other everywhere in England, all the time

26、. When people buy something in a shop, customer and retail assistant in most cases thank each other twice or more. In Germany, it would be exceptional to hear more than one thank you in such a conversation. British students thank their lecturers when leaving the room. English employers thank their e

27、mployees for doing their jobs, as opposite to Germans, who would normally think that paying their workers money is already enough.Another thing I observed during my stay was that English people rarely criticize others. Even when I was working and mistakes were pointed out to me, my employers emphasi

28、zed (强调) several times but none of their explanations were intended as criticism. It has been my impression that by avoiding criticism, English people are making an effort to make others feel comfortable. This also is showed in other ways. British men still open doors for women, and British men are

29、more likely to treat women to a meal than German men. However, I do need to point out here that this applies to English men a bit more than it would to Scottish men! Yes, the latter (后者) are a bit tightfisted.56. What is the authors attitude towards English politeness?A. He thinks it is artificial.

30、B. He gives no personal opinion.C. He appreciates it. D. He thinks it goes too far.57. What can we learn about customers and retail assistants in Germany? A. A customer never says thank you to a retail assistant. B. Its always a retail assistant who says thank you. C. They may say thank you only onc

31、e. D. they always say thank you to each other.58 We can learn from the last paragraph that Scottish men _. A. are more likely to be involved in a fighting B. are more polite than English men C. treat women in a polite way D. are not so willing to spend money for women59. The author of this text is m

32、ost probably _. A. an Englishman B. a German C. a Scottish man D. a Welshman60. The author develops the text through the method of _. A. making comparisons B. telling stories C. giving comments D. giving reasonsBTim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New Yorkhe i

33、n computers, she in special education. “Teaching means everything to us.” Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about lifes purpose.Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Li

34、brary, a program started by Dolly Partons foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singers home town of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire.” Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, “as

35、 a reminder”Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on . The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went

36、to Dollywood for a looksee. “We didnt want to give the children rubbish.” says Linda. The booksreviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists, and Dollywood board membersincluded classics such as Ezra Jack Keatss The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdneys Llama Llama series.Satisfied, th

37、e couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative：“This program introduces us to books Ive never heard of.”The Richters spend about $400 a mont

38、h sending books to 200 children.“Some people sit there and wait to die.” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”61What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?A. His health problem.B. His love for teaching.C. The influence of his wife.D. The news from the

39、Web.62What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?A. Give out brochures.B. Do something similar.C. Write books for children.D. Retire from being a teacher.63According to the text, Dolly Parton is _.A. a wellknown surgeonB. a mother of a fouryearoldC. a singer born in TennesseeD.

40、 a computer programmer64Why did the Richters go to Dollywood?A. To avoid signing up online.B. To meet Dollywood board members.C. To make sure the books were the newest.D. To see if the books were of good quality.65What can we learn from Tims words in the last paragraph?A. He needs more money to help

41、 the children.B. He wonders why some people are so busy.C. He tries to save those waiting to die.D. He considers his efforts worthwhile.CIn the fall of 1985, I was a brighteyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere.

42、 Twentyone years later I am still a brighteyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65.She was the first in our family to reach that goal.But one year after I started college, she developed cancer.I made the choice to

43、withdraw from college to care for her.It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children.In 1999, we adopted our first son.To lay eyes on him was fantasticand very emotional.A y

44、ear later came our second adopted boy.Then followed son No.3.In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 8！Our home was a complete zooa joyous zoo.Not surprising, I never did make it back to college fulltime.But I never gave up

45、 on the dream either.I had only one choice: to find a way.That meant taking as few as one class each semester.The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them.There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should se

46、t an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina.It took me over 21 years to get my college degree!I am not special, just singleminded.It always struck me that when youre looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks hu

47、ge, but when youre in the midst of it, it just seems normal.Everything you want wont arrive in your life on one day.Its a process.Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.66When the author went to Howard University, her dream was to be _.Aa writer Ba teacherCa judge Da doctor67Why did the author

48、quit school in her second year of college?AShe wanted to study by herself. BShe fell in love and got married.CShe suffered from a serious illness.DShe decided to look after her grandma.68What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 4 and 5?AShe was busy yet happy with her family life. BShe ign

49、ored her guilty feeling for her sons. CShe wanted to remain a fulltime housewife.DShe was too confused to make a correct choice.69What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph?AFailure is the mother of success.BLittle by little, one goes far.

50、n, half done.70Which of the following can best describe the author?ACaring and determined. BHonest and responsible. CAmbitious and sensitive. DInnocent and singleminded.DSince the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Braincomputer interface (BCI) technolog

51、y could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a persons thoughts.In the laboratory, Tavella operated the

52、 wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.“Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuri

53、es or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles.” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from

54、 the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep

55、improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”He says his team has

56、 set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.71BCI is a technology that can _.A. help to update computer systemsB. link the human brain with

57、computersC. help the disabled to recoverD. control a persons thoughts72How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?A. By controlling his muscles.B. By talking to the machine.C. By moving his hand.D. By using his mind.73Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Pa

58、ragraph 5?A. scalpcomputercapwheelchairB. computercapscalpwheelchairC. scalpcapcomputerwheelchairD. capcomputerscalpwheelchair74The team will test with real patients to _.A. make profits from themB. prove the technology useful to themC. make them live longerD. learn about their physical condition75W

59、hich of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Switzerland, the BCI Research CenterB. New Findings About How the Human Brain WorksC. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the DisabledD. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries第二卷第四部分写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Learning t

60、o save money when youre young is an important lesson. All good lessons arid habits begin early, and saving is a skill that everyone needs. Many peopleadults includeddo not have a good sense of saving for the long run. I have been lucky to learn this lesson early because I have had a grass-cutting bu

61、siness since I was 10 years old. Of the money I make I spend about 10 percent and save the other 90. Making sure you save and dont spend too much is a good way to build up wealth. I have put my earnings in a bank. Many teens I know spend all the money they earn so it never has a chance to grow. Youn

62、g people should realize that their teenage years are a great time to begin saving. At high school many parents pay for almost everything, so your expenses can be small. If you have a lob, you should have fun with some of the money. But you should also save some so that it will grow. Then you can beg

63、in planning for your future. When you spend money, you not only lose that money, but also lose the interest you could have earned by saving it. After high school, college is expensive and then real life begins, with expenses such as food and rent. If you can hold onto a good percentage of the money

64、you earn as a teen, going to college and buying a house will be much easier._, the more time the money has to grow. If you are in your thirties without any savings, you will always have to struggle. The earlier you begin saving, the easier it is to create a nest egg. Later in life it can be hard to

65、start saving because general costs of living are more expensive and you may only have enough to pay your bills. If you want to buy a house and have a family, you need money to start with, which comes from saving. Many say money cannot make you happy, and this is true. But money can help you to lead

66、a secure life. Saving early will mean you will have to work for fewer years when you are older. It will also allow you to spend time doing the things that you want to do. In addition to this, it will mean you can live the way you want to without worrying. 76.Whats the best title of the passage? _77.

67、Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one? As long as you save early , youll do less work to live well at your old age. _78.Please fill in the blank in the passage with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.(within 10 words) _79 According to the passage,.what do you think of saving ?(within 30 words) _80.Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese. 第二节：书面表达（满分25分）请你用表格中所给的关键词写一篇关于“考试作弊”的议论文。要求：1词数120左右。2意思连贯，观点清晰，行文流畅。欢迎广大教师踊跃来稿，稿酬丰厚。
