Therefore, how you s

16、pend your “dash” is important. Recently I 36 about a little girl named Hope. After learning more about her life, I couldnt help but feel it was not by 37 , nor happenstance, that she had been named “Hope”. The strong feeling of sympathy and generosity 38 in her young heart made a lasting impression

17、on me and countless others. 39 I never had the opportunity to meet her, I wish I had. It seems as though she was wise beyond her tender years and very, very special. Hope was a twelve-year-old girl who was 40 a “wish” in early December 2010 by the “Make-A-Wish” Foundation after being 41 that she had

18、 a rare type of bone cancer. However, when she found out that more than 150 42 in her area were waiting for their wishes to be granted (实现), she unselfishly used her wish to 43 that those children have their wishes granted. She also asked that it be done 44 January 16, 2011. Unfortunately, however,

19、the organization informed her that her 45 request could not be granted as the funds (资金) were simply 46 . They calculated that they would need to raise more than one 47 dollars in thirty days in order to grant her wish. 48 , but not discouraged, she turned her disappointment into an enthusiasm that

20、inspired caring 49 to take up helping grant the wishes of the other children, and eventually 50 as well. Newspaper columnists and reporters for radio and TV stations 51 the story of this caring young girl who had 52 the hearts of so many and as word spread, the community was challenged. Committees w

21、ere formed and schools, corporations and various organizations assisted in 53 money to help make Hopes dream come true.Her efforts were not in vain as they continue to help others, not only 54 , but spiritually and emotionally as well. At the gathering to celebrate her life, “A Celebration of Hope”

22、on January 16, 2011, the 55 was made that they had indeed received donations totaling more than one million dollars. Her wish had been granted!36. A. heard B. thoughtC. cared D. talked37.

26、at parents can employ with their kids, is to frame tasks and responsibilities in the context of what the end benefit is for them. I call this strategy WIIFM (“Whats in it for me?”).When a teen can combine an understanding of WIIFM with a sense of passion about achieving a goal, barriers will start t

27、o fall away. At our teen summer camps, we arrange an event near the end of the 10-day session that helps campers identify an important life goal and mentally break through their biggest barrier to achieving the goal.We pass around 12-by-12-inch pine boards. We tell campers that this activity is not

28、about breaking a piece of wood. Its about how you can get what you want in your life. Its about breaking barriers to grab on to your goals. They have the power to break through any barrier. It has nothing to do with body size or physical condition. The skinniest, smallest teens will break through th

29、e board almost as easily as the big ones.We talk to the campers about the reasons they might have had for not reaching their goals in the past. Maybe they got lazy and decided it wasnt worth the effort. Maybe they failed and let their fear of failure hold them back. But this exercise is about puttin

30、g the past where it belongs. Today is about making new choices.By this point in the program, we ask them to think of the goal theyve set for themselves and write their goals on the boards. Then they write the possible obstacles which may hold them back on the opposite sides. An inch of pine now stan

31、ds between them and their dreams.The facilitators and their teammates gather around. The support is strong. One by one, they break through the barriers and grab their goals! All around us teens are laughing, crying, hugging, and holding up the broken pieces of their boards. The confidence shown on t

32、heir faces is beautiful.While arranging such an activity in ones home is almost unrealistic for parents, the value of helping a teen break through a personal barrier simply by being there as moral support can not be overestimated. More help for parents in the form of videos and articles is available

33、 at our website, in our blogs and in a monthly e-newsletter.56. The 12-by-12-inch pine boards are used as _.A. materials to test ones muscles B. signs of goals in ones life C. assessments to show ones progress D. symbols of barriers in ones life57. We can learn from the passage that through the even

34、t the campers _.A. become hard-working B. get moral support C. gain confidence D. set right goals 58. Which is the best title for the passage?A. The Power of WIIFM B. Whats in It for MeC. The Importance of Goals D. Motivational Strategies59. The passage is intended for _.A. teens B. parents C. campe

35、rs D. tutorsBService Foods makes it easier for cooks to reduce mealtime complaints. Service Foods is so confident that they can reduce complaints, in fact, that the company is offering a series of mealtime complaint-reduction tips. According to a representative of Service Foods, complaints can occur

36、 when busy cooks serve substandard, low quality meats. As products sit in packaging in the meat case at the store, the meat can age out too much. The natural flavor disappears, and it can be replaced with an undesirable strange flavor. According to Service Foods, complaints from children are common

37、when you serve substandard meats. Kids may not have the words to describe why they dont like the meats, but theyre certainly willing to express their displeasure. By serving meats from Service Foods, complaints can be reduced. Service Foods meats are all natural and organic, meaning the meats have n

38、o chemicals or water or colorings that could change the taste. And the meats are flash-frozen right after cutting, so they wont taste strange to your children.If youre facing different types of complaints, Service Foods may still be able to help you. Some families have mealtime boredom. The same mea

39、ls, served in the same way, week after week, can be incredibly boring and hard to look forward to. When it comes to these complaints, Service Foods has the answer right on the web. Just go to and youll find a long list of recipes to try. Some of these recipes are made in demonstration format, so you

40、 can watch the video and get step-by-step instructions on how to prepare the meals. By following these recipes from Service Foods, complaints relating to boredom can certainly be reduced. While Service Foods knows complaints at mealtime can never be totally eradicated, as picky kids will always be p

41、icky kids with concerns, the company is doing everything possible to deal with the problem and get cooks the help they need.60. Service Foods can solve mealtime boredom by _.A. serving flash-frozen meat B. expressing childrens complaints C. instructing different ways of cooking D. supplying natural

42、food without chemicals 61. The underlined word “eradicated” in the last paragraph can be replaced with _.A. covered B. removed C. reduced D. accepted62. From the passage we can learn that Service Foods can do the following EXCEPT _.A. cook food for picky kids B. teach how to prepare meals C. provide

43、 natural and organic meat D. help reduce complaints about foods63. What will the readers probably do after reading the passage?A. Pay for Service Foods service. B. Buy organic meat from now on.C. Write recipes for Service Foods D. Answer complaints on the web.CTo whom it may concern,This letter desc

44、ribes the worst travel experience I have ever had. The problems we had were the result of poor management and thoughtless employees. Your airline should be ashamed of treating its customers so poorly.On January 5, we arrived in Denver from Houston and checked in for our next flight. It wasnt long be

45、fore the agent announced that our flight would be delayed because of a mechanical problem. The equipment was in Aspen, and they expected it to be repaired soon.Soon shortly turned to much later, and during the delay, weather temporarily closed the Aspen airport. The weather cleared in Aspen and the

46、plane took off very late for Denver. While it was in the air, the agent announced that the plane would be used for the next flight and that our flight was being cancelled.This cancellation struck me as being unfair. There was a mad scramble(争先恐后) as the 50 or so passengers scheduled for our flight f

47、ought for seats on later flights. When the dust settled, we were wait-listed on the 9:00 flight the next morning. We had to spend the night in the airport.Coming home was no better. Because of a mechanical problem, it looked like we would miss our connection in Denver. The agent assured us they woul

48、d hold the Newark flight for us. Needless to say, the flight to Houston taxied out as we pulled into the gate. Arrangements were made for us to take the next flight, so we sat in the airport for 5 hours. When we finally arrived in Houston, our skis were missing. As of this writing, the skis have not

49、 been found.Nothing you can do will make us feel better about our flights. If you are a responsible business, however, you will do what you can to see that passengers in the future are treated better.With great displeasure, Phyllis Dooley64. When Phyllis wrote her letter, she felt _.A. tired B. fool

50、ed C. annoyed D. ashamed65. What was Phyllis destination when she left home on January 5? A. Denver. B. Houston. C. Aspen. D. Not mentioned.66. What happened to Phyllis on her day coming home?A. She took a taxi to Houston airport. B. Her flight to Houston was cancelled. C. Her flight was delayed for

51、 five hours. D. She missed her connection in Denver. DIt is football time again. Currently, the qualifying rounds are being played to decide which countries will send teams to the next World Cup. Some Soccer is becoming more and more popular on a worldwide scale and these qualifying legs are causing

52、 much excitement.The game is popular at club level as well. Many fans go every week to support their teams, whether the event is a home or away one, hoping to get a result. They all hope an attacking game, with a lot of goals being scored. Obviously, they do not want to see a boring, defensive match

53、 where the players are aimlessly passing the ball to each other.Sadly, not all the action always takes place on the ground. All too frequently, there is action in the stands, too. Football supporters, most of whom declare their loyalty by wearing their team colors, in the form of shirts, are not kno

54、wn for their quiet behavior. They are often very noisy, shouting noisy encouragement to their team and singing deafening songs.There is much rivalry between supporters. Mostly, this is good-natured, but trouble can easily arise. Fans get angry if they feel that a referee has made a wrong decision, p

55、erhaps giving one of their team a red or yellow card unfairly, or perhaps failing to notice a foul committed by a member of the other team.When trouble breaks out in a football crowd, it can be difficult to control. Stadium officials often seat the opposing fans in separate parts of the ground as a

56、precaution against fighting. However, preventing trouble is more difficult outside the ground. In the worst cases, riot (暴乱) police have to be called in.Unfortunately, there are some fans who enjoy this violent aspect of football. These football hooligans(流氓) really enjoy a running battle with the p

57、olice, and call up other people to throw stones and bottles at them. They regard football not only as a sport, but as an excuse for trouble makings. Inevitably, their behavior spoils the reputation of the game.67. The qualifying rounds are played to_.A. make the game more exciting B. attract soccer

58、fans at club levelC. raise funds for the organization D. select the teams for the next rounds68. What do football fans hope to see?A. A home game . B. A defensive game. C. An exciting game. D. An evenly matched game.69. Riot police are called in_.A. to stop fighting occurring outside the ground B. t

59、o separate the opposing fans inside the groundC. as a precaution against trouble inside the ground D. as a precaution against fighting outside the ground70. It is implied in the last paragraph that_.A. football has a poor reputation B. football hooligans are crazy about the games C. football fans en

60、joy spoiling games D. football can be an excuse for troublemaking第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Leap YearLeap year is a year that has 366 days instead of the usual 365. It normally occurs every four years, always on an even-numbered year. The extra day is added to our

61、 shortest month. That is the second month of the year, which in non-leap years has 28 days, two fewer than any other month. 71 Leap year is also called the bissextile year. 72 In our calendar system there is a need for a leap year because the solar year (the time it takes the earth to go around the

62、sun once) is actually slightly more than 365 days long. That extra dayFeb. 29 every four yearshelps correct the difference between our calendar and the solar calendar.Leap year was first made part of the calendar by the ancient Roman leader Julius Caesar. His astronomers had calculated the length of

63、 the solar year to be 365 days and six hours. So Caesar declared that an extra day be added to the calendar. 73 Caesars adjustment, however, was not entirely accurate because his astronomers year exceeded the true solar year by eleven minutes and fourteen seconds. By 1582, a difference of ten days h

64、ad developed between the calendar year and the true solar year. To correct this error, Pope Gregory XIII ruled that every fourth year would continue to be a leap year except for century years that could not be divided evenly by 400. By this system, century years such as 1700, 1800, and 1900 were not

65、 leap years, but the year 2000 was a leap year. 74 Persons born on Feb. 29 celebrate their growing up a little differently from the rest of us. 75 But if they go strictly by the calendar, they have only one-fourth as many birthday celebrations as most people.A. This is done every four years. B. This

66、 is its formal, or scientific title. C. This may seem complicated, but it works. D. They acknowledge that they get older each year.E. The leap year was introduced in the Julian calendar in 46 BC.F. When you see Feb. 29 on a calendar, you know that year is a leap year.G. In a leap year, the extra day

67、 is added to the second month, giving it 29 instead of the usual 28 days.第四部分：书面表达（共两节，35分）第一节 情景作文 （20分）假设你是光明中学高三 (1) 班的学生李华。请根据以下四幅图的先后顺序, 给你的美国笔友Mike回一封英文邮件, 介绍你高三开学第一天的一些情况。注意：1. 开头和结尾已为你写出。 2. 词数不少于60。Dear Mike,Thank you for your email and I am glad to learn that you are enjoying your new scho

72、your new school life. As requested, I would like to briefly introduce my first day of Senior Three.As usual, the new school year started on September 1st. I went to school early, anxious about my first day of Senior Three, the last and most important school year before going to university.It started

73、 with an opening ceremony. Our principal gave us a speech, encouraging us to be confident. After that, we went back to our own classroom to have a class meeting. Our class teacher introduced the plan of the new semester and several other things that we need to be aware of. Then we were asked to disc

74、uss in groups about how to manage our time more efficiently. In the end each group reported their results to the class, and I was honored to present on behalf of my group. That is what the first day was like. I will keep in touch when I have more to tell you.I have to stop here, and I look forward t

75、o more of your stories.Best wishes!Li Hua 第二节 开放作文（15分）三、Possible versions1.As can be seen in the picture, one thirsty crow is busying himself throwing stones into a jar in order to raise the water level for drinking. The other crow, however, has already started drinking from its own jar with the he

76、lp of a long straw.The message conveyed in the picture is clear. In pursuing a dream, we might focus on only the traditional way of making it come true, forgetting that there may be creative ways. As indicated in the picture, the crow using the straw gets water far earlier than the one following the

77、 traditional way of throwing stones. The latter may not be able to even get any water at all before the former empties the whole jar. No matter how “thirsty” we are, we should always try to find a “straw” first.2. As is shown in the picture, a crow has been flying back and forth, picking stones and

78、throwing them into a half-filled jar. However, on the edge of the other jar stands another crow, drinking the water at ease with a straw, which proves to be more efficient and less time-consuming.The cartoon, directly and humorously, tries to convey that we should keep a creative and open mind at al

79、l times in our lives. As is often the case, people tend to tackle a problem with the same solution once it turns out to be effective, just like the crow on the right. Accustomed to the conventional way, they fail to take other alternatives into consideration, let alone trying to be innovative. Howev

80、er, as time goes by, ideas that used to be creative may go out of date and should be replaced with fresh ones. Therefore, by no means should we be confined by conventions or routines. Instead, we should all learn from the crow on the left, which is more open-minded and makes the most of a “modern device”a straw. So stay creative. Stay hungry for changes. Only when we “think outside the box” and try out some new approaches can we keep up to date with the ever-changing world and will a new realm of possibilities open up to us.
