The boy walked a long way, and finally came upon the beautiful castle where the wise man lived.On entering the main room of the castle, the boy was quite surprised: tradesmen coming and going, people chatting in the corners, and a small orchestra pla

18、ying soft music. The wise man talked with everyone, and the boy had to wait for two hours before it was his turn.The wise man listened carefully to the boys explanation of why he had come, but told him that he didnt have time just then to explain the secret of happiness. He suggested that the boy lo

19、ok around the palace and return in two hours.“Meanwhile, I want to ask you to do something,” said the wise man, handing the boy a teaspoon that held two drops of oil. “As you wander around, carry this spoon with you without allowing the oil to spill.”The boy began to walk up and down stairs of the p

26、sC Arriving in Sydney on his own from India, my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children. During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone

27、. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport. He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying

28、to settle down in a new one. Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husbands name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can that had been left out on the footpath. My husband rushed to their h

29、ome to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents（文件）. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half

30、-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend. That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.28. What did Ras

31、hid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?A. Find a house B. Go shopping C. Join his family D. Take a vacation29. The girls parents got Rashids phone number from_.

Turning Trash to Treasure. C. Living in a New Country. D. In Search of New Friends. DIts really true what people say about E

33、nglish politeness: its everywhere. When squeezing (挤过去) past someone in a narrow passage, 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 sometimes u

34、navoidable, and the bus driver is only doing his job. I used to think the same way, without questioning it, until I started traveling to the British Isles, and here are some more polite ways of communicating with people in UK.People thank each other everywhere in England, all the time. When people b

35、uy something in a shop, customer and shop 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 employees for doin

36、g 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 (批评) others. Even when I was working and mistakes were pointed out to me, my employers emphasized several

37、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 more likely to tr

38、eat 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 are a bit tightfisted.32. What is the authors attitude towards English politeness?A. He thinks it is unnecessary. B. He thinks little o

39、f it.C. He appreciates it very much. D. He thinks it goes too far.33. What can be inferred from the passage?A. German men never treat a woman to dinner.B. The author think its unnecessary to say “thank you” to the bus driver.C. In Germany, employers often say “thank you” to employees for their job.D

40、. Germans think it is unnecessary to thank workers because payment is enough.34. We can learn from the last paragraph that Scottish men _.A. like to fight with each other B. treat women in a polite wayC. are as generous as English men D. are unwilling to spend money for women35. The author develops

41、the text through the method of _.A. making comparisons B. telling stories C. giving reasons D. giving examples第三部分 完形填空（共20小题；每小题15分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness.

Finally they fell dead in fear and ex

45、haustion. According to the _49_ people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the _50_ of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to _51_ themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering (闪烁) not far away. Dont
