My husband had just bought a new washing machine for me. I decided to use it the  21  day, and I washed a lot of things. Everything worked  22  , but I couldn't find 23  of my husband's socks though I had looked 24  for it.
The next morning, I got ready for 25   as usual. When the bell rang, the students came in. I greeted them and told them   26  we were going to do  27  .
When I turned  28   to write on the blackboard, the class burst out 29  . They laughed and laughed. They laughed so much, in fact, that I was  30   the headmaster would be in to see all this.
I asked the class to  31  , but the 32 I talked, the more they laughed. So I thought I had better pay  33   attention to them and continue to write on the blackboard. When I did this, they laughed even more.
Before long, the teacher who had the room next to   34   came to see 35   all the laughter was about. When he came in, he started  36  , too.
"Good  Heavens ! "I said. "Will   37  please tell me what is so  38 ?"
"Oh, God," said the teacher, " you have a brown 39 stuck to the back of your shirt. "
So that's   40   I found my husband's missing sock.
"Oh, well," I said to the class, "let's just say  you have had an unforgettable lesson on static electricity(静电)."

For most of the day construction worker Sidney Smith and his brother – in – law Joseph Chambers had been   21  along the banks of Lake Waco with little   22 . Chambers suggested they go home, but Smith 33  that there were still several hours of daylight 24  and there was one other place they might try a bit longer before  25 .
Smith drove his pickup(小货车)a couple of miles along the 26 road to get to the other side of the lake. This road, in the truest sense, was a path wagging in the heavy 27 area. Even with the sun still high in the cloudless sky, the 28 of trees formed a leafy 29 over the road and it suddenly seemed  30 in the evening.
“A guy could get lost and nobody would ever find him,” said Chambers.
Smith smiled, “We’re 31 there.” He said. A few seconds later, the smile was  32  from his face.
“What the hell is that?”
  He braked to a stop. Less than twenty feet away was what appeared to be a  33 .
  For several minutes the two men sat in the pickup 34 to decide whether they had happened to 35 someone’s bad practical joke or something far more serious. Smith with his brother-in-law got out of the pickup and  36 walked towards that thing some distance before them.
It was a young man who was already dead. They had got to tell 37 . Back into the pickup, Smith backed the pickup down the road 38 he could turn around, then 39 back. With the dead young man still on his mind, Smith felt as if he was going to be sick. God, how he 40  they had given up fishing and gone home early.

Alice, my friend’s daughter, goes to an expensive private school where she has a friend, Jane, who is on a full scholarship at this school. Jane has   36  economic resources—her father has been dead for years and her mother works   37  a maid. Although her mother works very hard, she can       38  __ support the family. Jane is very bright and gifted at   39  and that’s how she has got the scholarship, which included a(n)   40  for things like lunch, school uniform and music lessons.
Alice became friends with Jane and would   41  talk to her at lunch. She did it that way in order to avoid the other kids   42  her. 
On her birthday last month, she   43  her new friend to her birthday party, but Jane said she couldn’t come.  Alice wanted her to be   44  so much that she   45  on her coming. Eventually, the girl said, “I don’t have any   46__ clothes that I could wear at your birthday party.” After a brief pause, the girl remembered, “I have a   47  from my piano performance,” and asked, “Could I   48  a skirt from you?”
Alice was happy that her friend would be   49  to come and hurried home to ask her Mum    50  she could lend her friend one of her skirts. To her surprise, her Mum said, “No.” The daughter was very   51  and angrily said to her Mum, “   52  I could, I would give my friend all my clothes.” The Mother didn’t understand why her daughter should have had such an outburst as she’s normally very well   53  
Finally, Alice explained to her Mother her friend’s   54  .  Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said, “Yes.” She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with Jane but to feel proud of her   55  with her. 
So the true friendship seeks to give, not to take; to help, not to be helped; to minister, not to be ministered to.

Packaging is an important form of advertising.A package can sometimes motivate someone to buy a product.For example, a small child might ask for a breakfast food that comes in a box with a picture of a TV character.The child is more interested in the picture than in breakfast food.Pictures for children to color or cut out, games printed on a package, or a small gift inside a box also motivate many children to buy products or to ask their parents to buy for them.
Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing.Food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this.Although a similar product in a plain container might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish, because they believe the container is free.However, the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product.The size of a package also motivates a buyer.Maybe the package had “Economy Size” or “Family Size” printed on it.This suggests that the larger size has the most product for the least money.But that is not always true.To find it out, a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic unit.
The information on the package should provide some answers.But the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often an advertisement.The words and pictures do not tell the whole story.Only the product inside can do that.
小题1:From the passage we know the buyer pays more attention to __________.
A.the size of a container
B.a container with attractive picture
C.a well-designed container
D.a plain container with low cost
小题2:What suggestion does the author give in the passage?
A.It’s not good to buy the product which is sold in a glass or dish.
B.The quality of a container has nothing to do with the quality of the product.
C.The best choice for a buyer is to buy a product in a plain package.
D.A buyer should buy what he needs most rather than a well-designed package.
小题3:What is the best title for the passage?
A.How to Package a Product.
B.How to Make an Advertisement.
C.How to Sell Product.
D.How to Treat the Package Wisely.

Many people often say there is more stress in today's society than in years past. In fact, these people are comparing our lives with that of the cave man, who didn't have to worry about the stock market or the atomic bomb. They forget that the cave man worried about being eaten by a hear while he was asleep, or about dying of hunger--things that few people worry much about today.
Actually stress is a normal state of affairs, and it's important that people understand what they are talking about when they speak about stress. Whenever anyone experiences something unpleasant, for lack of a better word they say they are under stress. Yet there is such a thing as pleasant stress--as in the case of the Olympic winner at the moment of his glory, or a conductor as his orchestra performs particularly well. They are just sending out excitement, and they are giving off all the stress hormones exactly the same as if they were in low spirits or had just heard of a death in the family. We call the pleasant or healthy kind "eustress” and the unpleasant or unhealthy kind "distress".
Then how can people deal with stress? The secret is not to avoid it but to "do your own thing". It implies doing what you like to do and what you are made to do at your own speed. For most people, it is really a matter of learning how to live and how to behave in various situations, to decide: “Do I really want to take my father's business or be a musician?” If you really want to be a musician, then be one.
64. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A. Modern people experiences more stress than the cave man.
B. The cave man experienced more stress than modern people.
C. People don't suffer more stress today; it's just that they think they do.
D. Modern people have the same worries as the cave man did.
65. In which of the following situations will you feel "eustress"?
A. Your favorite football team has lost an important game.
B. You have failed an important examination.
C. You are informed of an accident of your best friend.
D. You have won the first prize in an English competition.
66 The purpose of writing the passage is to let us know _________________________.
A. stress does not necessarily refer to unpleasant experience
B. distress is what people call the pleasant kind of stress
C. an Olympic winner feels the same stress as one who loses a family member
D. people will feel eustress and distress at the same time
67. According to the passage, how can people deal with stress?
A. Do things that you really want to do.    B. Do whatever you're expected to do.
C. Try to do things successfully.          D. Refuse to do whatever you're told to.

第二部分:阅读理解(共20小题,每小题2分,满分40分)
第一节:阅读下列短文,然后从所给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中选出最佳选项,并写在答题纸上.
Every spring scores of people flock to the Buzzard Festival(秃鹫节) at Hinckley, Ohio. They come to watch for buzzards. Most would be glad just to take a look at a buzzard. If they do see one of these “flying garbage cans”, it will probably be circling high in the sky. From there it can watch the ground for signs of the waste and the dead animals on which it feeds.
The buzzard is the ugliest bird in the United States. In fact, it may well be the ugliest bird in the world. It has a small, bare, pink head. Its thick body is covered with dark, rough feathers.
In spite of its looks, the buzzard is important to the people of Hinckley. It is their first sign of spring. After a winter in the south, buzzards return to their homes in the north. In the Hinckley area, they always return on March 15. No one knows why. But they have come back to Hinckley Ridge on that day, sure as clocks work, for at least forty years.
The excitement starts in February. By the middle of March it has reached a high peak. Bets are placed. Prizes go to the person who sees the first buzzard. Radio stations and newspapers tell of the coming festival. And on the weekend after March 15 the people of Hinckley hold their Buzzard Festival.
The people come and look around. They chat. They eat their pancakes and sausages. Then they drive past Buzzard’s Roost on Hinckley Ridge.
A lot of them stop near the road at the stand set up to give information to visitors. There they can hear, from a recording, the main facts about the buzzard. They can see a stuffed buzzard. They can look at some pictures taken of buzzards in other years. With good luck and a strong pair of field glasses, they may sight one or two live buzzards high in the sky.
Buzzards may be ugly. They may be “flying garbage cans”. But in Hinckley they are just as welcome as the swallows are in Capistrano in California. It would be a sad spring indeed if the buzzards ever failed to come back to Hinckley Ridge.
61.A good title for this story would be _________.
A. The Hinckley Buzzard Festival             
B. Buzzard, the Ugliest Bird
C. Why the Buzzard Has a Pink Head          
D. The Return of “The Garbage Can”
62.The buzzard is called the“flying garbage can”because it _________.
A. is ugly                                  
B. eats waste and dead animals
C. looks like a garbage can                    
D. collect rubbish on the ground
63.The surprising thing about Hinckley’s buzzards is that _________.
A. they spend the winter in the south
B. they come very close to the town
C. they return on the same day each year
D. both buzzards and swallows return to Capistrano on March 15
64.At the information stand, visitors to Hinckley’s Buzzard Festival can _________.
A. feed their pancakes and sausages to buzzards
B. easily see a live buzzard
C. take some pictures with the background of live buzzards
D. learn some facts about the buzzard

Come prepared: When you arrive at a race, your bike should be in race-ready condition.
Chain Management: Chain damage is still the number one problem with mountain bikes. Keeping your chain clean and well-oiled will help, as will frequent chain replacement. Periodic inspection of your chain for wear, stretch and damage may save you a long walk home.
Packing Tape: This can be used for rims trips, boots for fractured tires and a dozen more makeshift repairs. If you've flown to the race, it also saves you from having to borrow tape to close up your bike box for the flight home. Other musts: safety pins and plastic zip ties.
Pre-race: Visual inspections before any serious off-road ride, carefully examine the area where the tire hooks onto the rim and remove any foreign objects which could cause premature(比预期早的)tire wear.
Tire Pressure: Check tire pressure before race start. The recommended pressure is noted on the tire sidewall, usually 40 lbs., many racers run 50 lbs., or more for less rolling resistance.
Be Self-Contained: Make sure you are self-contained. Bring your own drinking water, food and first aid kit. Also have tools, spare parts, tubes, quick fills and a chain tool. Never suppose you can just borrow these items from a friend.
Post-race Visual Inspections: Inspect your bike after completing each event, especially before competing in a downhill event. Re-inspect before packing your bike for the trip home.
Have Fun!
73. This passage is written for those who _______.
A. go in for outdoor activities                        B. love cycling in other places

C. to bring less while racing                          D. to have higher tire pressure
75 The passage is organized in order of _______.
A. importance             B. time                      C. readers' interest       D. place

A. a foreign tire is a guarantee for the cyclist to win the race
