I have thus searched the country within a dozen miles of where I live. In imagination I have bought all the

15、farms, one after another, and I knew their prices.The nearest thing that I came to actual owner completed the sale with me, his wife changed her mind and wished to keep it, and he offered me additional dollars to return the farm to him. However, I let him keep the additional dollars and sold him the

16、 farm for just what I gave for it.The real attractions of the Hollowell farm to me were its position, being about tow miles from the village, half a mile from the nearest neighbor, bounded on one side by the river, and separated from the highway by a wide field. The poor condition of the house and f

17、ences showed that it hadnt been used for some time. I remembered from my earliest trip up the river that the house used to be hidden behind a forest area, and I was in a hurry to buy it before the owner finished getting out some rocks, cutting down the apple trees, and clearing away some young trees

18、 which had grown up in the fields. I wanted to buy it before he made any more of his improvements. But it turned out as I have said. I wasnt really troubled by the loss. I had always had a garden, but I dont think I was ready for a large farm. I believe that as long as possible it is better to live

19、free and uncommitted. It makes but little difference whether you own a farm or not.31.What do we know about the author?A. He wanted to buy the oldest farm near where he lived.B. He made a study of many farms before buying.C. He made money by buying and selling farms.D. He had the money to buy the be

20、st farm in the country.32.Why did the author decide to buy the Hollowell place? A. It was of good market value. B. It was next to the highway. C. It was in a good position. D. It was behind a nice garden.33.The underlined words “the loss” in the last paragraph refers to _. A. the money the author lo

21、st in buying a farm B. the sale of the garden in the Hollowell place C. the removal of the trees around the house D. the failure to possess the Hollowell place34.What does the author believe as important in life?A. To own a farm. B. To satisfy his needs.C. To be free from worries. D. To live in the

22、countryside.B You are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they”

23、are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individual

24、s who might like to control their lives, but they dont let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they dont blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred moment of life is a gift and that storms ar

25、e a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish in anger, guilt, and other emotions that ca

26、use othersand even themselvesto feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.In reality, all of us play the vic

27、tim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then

28、accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.35.What does t

29、he word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to? A. People and things around you. B. Opportunities and problems. C. Creators and their choices. D. Victims and their sufferings.36.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. Creators and victims face quite different things in life.B. Creators and victims ar

30、e masters of their lives.C. Victims can influence more people than creators.D. Compared with victims, creators are more emotional.37.The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that _.A. strong attachment to sufferings in life pulls people into victimsB. people need family support to deal with challe

31、ngers in lifeC. it takes creators quite a long time to get rid of their painsD. ones experiences determine his attitude toward life38.What is the authors purpose in writing this passage?A. To define victims and creators.B. To evaluate victims against creators.C. To explain the relationship between v

32、ictims and creators.D. To suggest the transformation from victims to creators.CAs demand for power and fuel grows steadily in the coming decades, we must consider every possible energy source at hand if were to meet the worlds needs. And because clean natural gas is found in great plenty, there is l

33、ittle doubt that it will play a major role on the world energy stage in this century, much like oil did in the last. But, like oil gas reserves are concentrated in just a few places in the world, usually far from where theyre needed most. And thats only part of the challenge. The world has had well

34、over 100 years to search for oil and to build the necessary facilities to bring it to market; the natural gas facilities, particularly when it comes to liquefied natural gas (LNG), is not nearly as developed.So what needs to be done? On the supply side, producing nations need policies that allow for

35、 better development of their natural gas in an open, stable business environment, not one in which the rules of game change without warning. The sustainable development to ensure theyll have enough supplies in the future, that means building the related facilities, including LNG stations. This, in t

36、urn, will require coastal areas to allow these necessary, but not necessarily pretty, facilities to be built in their backyards. And energy companies have a responsibility to be good neighbors in those areas by operating these facilities responsibly and safely. They must also continue to put in the

37、billions of dollars needed to build the complex transport and storage facilities required to bring more gas to market. Expanding and diversifying energy sources by using more natural gas could lead to lower fuel prices and to greater energy security. Weve taken some steps to get started, but we need

38、 your help to get the rest of the way.39.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Gas played a major part in the 20th century.B. Natural gas facilities are far from satisfactory.C. Gas reserves are widely spread around the world.D. Necessary facilities are ready to bring gas to mar

39、ket.40.The underlined word “one” (in Paragraph 2) refers to _. A. the gas supply side B. the business environment C. the gas consuming nation D. the policy for gas development41.The main purpose of the passage is to _.A. warn people of the lack of power and fuel B. discuss the importance of oil and

40、natural gasC. call for better use and development of natural gasD. instruct people how to make use of energy sources42.The passage might be followed by a paragraph about _. A. what kind of help you can offer B. where energy sources are concentrated C. which countries are in great need of gas D. what

41、 problems of energy sources we may faceDHow Room Designs Affect Our Work and FeelingsArchitects have long had the feeling that the places we live in can affect our thoughts, feelings and behaviors. But now scientists are giving this feeling an empirical basis. They are discovering how to design spac

42、es that promote creativity, keep people focused and lead to relaxation.Researches show that aspects of the physical environment can influence creativity. In 2007, Joan MeyersLevy at the University of Minnesota, reported that the height of a rooms ceiling affects how people think. Her research indica

43、tes that higher ceilings encourage people to think more freely, which may lead them to make more abstract connections. Low ceilings, on the other hand, may inspire a more detailed outlook.In additions to ceiling height, the view afforded by a building may influence an occupants ability to concentrat

44、e. Nancy Wells and her colleagues at Cornell University found in their study that kids who experienced the greatest increase in greenness as a result of a family move made the most gains on a standard test of attention.Using nature to improve focus of attention ought to pay off academically, and it

45、seems to, according to a study led by C. Kenneth Tanner, head of the School Design & Planning Laboratory at the University of Georgia. Tanner and his team found that students in classrooms with unblocked views of at least 50 feet outside the window had higher scores on tests of vocabulary, language

46、arts and maths than did students whose classrooms primarily overlooked roads and parking lots.Recent study on room lighting design suggests than dim light helps people to loosen up. If that is true generally, keeping the light low during dinner or at parties could increase relaxation. Researchers of

47、 Harvard Medical School also discovered that furniture with rounded edges could help visitors relax.So far scientists have focused mainly on public buildings. “We have a very limited number of studies, so were almost looking at the problem through a straw,” architect David Allison says. “How do you

48、take answers to very specific questions and make broad, generalized use of them? Thats what were all struggling with.”43.What does Joan MeyersLevy focus on in her research? A. Light. B. Ceilings. C. Windows. D. Furniture.44.The passage tells us that _. A. the shape of furniture may affect peoples fe

49、elings B. lower ceilings may help improve students creativity C. children in a dim classroom may improve their grades D. students in rooms with unblocked views may feel relaxed45.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means that _. A. the problem is not approached step by step B. the

50、 researches so far have faults in themselves C. the problem is too difficult for researchers to detect D. research in this area is not enough to make generalized patterns46.Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?CP: Central Point P: Point SP: Sub-point（次要点） C: ConclusionEHumans

51、 are naturally drawn to other life forms and the worlds outside of our own. We take delight in the existence of creatures and even whole societies beyond our everyday lives.This sense of wonder is universal. Look at the efforts that scientists have made to find out whether life of some kind exists o

52、n Mars, and the popularity of fantasy literature or movies like The Lord of the Rings. This sense of wonder draws us to each other, to the world around us, and to the world of make-believe. But have we gone so far in creating worlds of fantasy that we are missing the pleasure of other worlds that al

53、ready exist all around us?Human beings, as biologists have suggested, possess an inborn desire to connect with and understand other life forms, However, people, especially in big cities, often lead rather isolated lives. In a study of British schoolchildren, it was found that children by age eight w

54、ere much more familiar with characters from television shows and video games than with common wildlife. Without modern technology, a small pond could be an amazing world filled with strange and beautiful plants, insects, birds, and animals. When we lack meaningful interaction with the world around u

55、s, and sometimes even with our families and friends, we seek to understand and communicate with things that exist only in our imaginations or on a computer screen. The world of makebelieve is not necessarily bad. But when the world of fantasy becomes the only outlet for our sense of wonder, then we

56、are really missing something. We are missing a connection with the living world. Other wonderful worlds exist all around us. But even more interesting is that if we look closely enough, we can see that these worlds, in a broad sense, are really part of our own.47.The popularity of The Lord of the Ri

57、ngs proves _. A. the close connection between man and the fantasy world B. the wonderful achievements of fantasy literature C. the fine taste of moviegoers around the world D. the general existence of the sense of curiosity48.What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3? A. People a

58、re far less familiar with the world of fantasy. B. The world around us could serve as a sound of wonder. C. The world of fantasy can be mirrored by a small and lively pond. D. Modern technology prevents us from developing our sense of wonder.49.If our sense of wonder relies totally on the world of m

59、akebelieve, we will _. A. fail to appreciate the joy in our lives B. be confused by the world of makebelieve C. miss the chance to recognize the fantasy world D. be trapped by other worlds existing all around us50.What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To show us the hidden beauty in our world.

60、 B. To warn us not to get lost in the fantasy world. C. To argue against the misuse of the sense of wonder. D. To discuss the influence of the world of makebelieve.第二节 补全对话(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) Excuse me, madam. Do you mind if I ask you some questions? I need your help to complete a survey.Of course no

Like many yo

65、ung athletes, she had Olympic dreams, but a serious illness kept her from competing in the Games. The disappointment didnt stop her from going forward. Instead, she became interested in marathon swimming. A brilliant athlete, she was wellconditioned for spending long periods of time in the water. As

66、 a longdistance swimmer, she would compete against herself and the obstacles presented by distance, danger, cold, and exhaustion.2For ten years Nyad devoted herself to becoming one of the worlds best longdistance swimmers. In 1970, she swam a tenmile marathon in Lake Ontario, setting the womens reco

67、rd for the course. In 1972 she set another record by swimming 102.5 miles from an island in the Bahamas to the coast of Florida. Then she broke a third record when swimming around Manhattan Island in 1975.3Nyad attempted to swim the distance between Florida and Cuba in 1978. Though the span of water

68、 is less than 100 miles wide, it is rough and dangerous. After battling the water for two days, she had to give up for the sake of her own health and safety. Even so, she impressed the world with her courage and strong desire to succeed. For Nyad her strength of purpose was just as important as reac

69、hing Cuba. That is how she defined success. It didnt matter that her swim came up short; she believed she had touched the other shore.4When Nyad _, she continued to try new thingstraveling the world as a reporter, writing books and giving public speeches about her life. Diana Nyad works to inspire o

70、thers, just as she did when she swam the waters of the world.56.What prevented Nyad from taking part in the Olympic Games? (No more than 5 words)57.What does the underlined word “obstacles” mean? (1 word)58.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words.(No more than 10 words)59.Why did Nyad bel

Therefore, if we stress cooperation too much, there would be no progress. In my opinion, all are importan

73、t and necessary. Lets take the competition at school for example. Even a gifted student wont make a remarkable progress if he is in a class without competition. Thats because competition, and rather, challenge is a driving force made him go forward. On the other hand, if we dont cooperate with each

74、other, its impossible for us learn from each other. And thats why most of the great discoveries or inventions in the modern world are the result of cooperation.To conclude, those who laugh last are the people who can successful cope with the relationship between competition and cooperation.第三节 书面表达(

After getting the work done, we put up a board reminding people to protect the trees. Before leaving we took some photos to record our green action. Seeing the lines of trees, we all had a sense of achievement. We feel its our duty to protect and beautify our environment.
