    Freshmen, eager to get home for the Chinese New Year, queue up at the railway station for hours．Days later, they squeeze into a crowded train and dream of the home-cooked meals and love they'll enjoy once they arrive home．This, they say, makes all the trouble of getting home worthwhile.
    However, many freshmen come to find that home is not exactly how they remembered it．Living away from their parents has exposed them to a new life of freedom – one that within hours of arriving some begin to miss．Household chores（家务活）and complaining parents are just a few of the things that can ruin students' winter fantasies．“My parents still treat me like I was in senior high,” Song Ying, a 19-year-old freshman at Shandong University, complained．“I get an earful from them every day.”
    During her first term away from her Hubei home, Song missed everything – from her parents cooking to the city bus．She cried and ached to sleep in her own bed．So, upon finishing her exams, she fled home, thinking everything would be just as it used to be．But she was wrong．Now, she spends entire days at a friend's home to “avoid all the restrictions”．She logs online to update friends' profile on SNS, skips meals and sleeps in – just like she did on campus.
    Things have been even tenser at home for Luo Ruiqi, a 19-year-old freshman at Beijing Jiaotong University．Instead of moving to a friend's house, though, he has decided to challenge his parents' rules for his right to be an adult at home．When they complained about the amount of time he spent in the toilet, Luo said he decided “enough is enough” and lost his temper．He feels guilty about his attitude, but he still argues that he is grown up enough to live by his own rules．“I just want to live my own way of living, wherever I am,” said Luo．
    Recent graduates like Wang Kai know what Song and Luo are going through．But Wang, who graduated in 2008 and now works in Beijing, says students should value the time spent with their family and “just try to be nicer.” Wang says he acted the same way when he first returned home from college, but now, living 1,500 km away from his hometown in Hunan, he regrets his behavior．He realizes that his parents meant well．And, looking back, he says that “the way of living that we got used to on campus is not that healthy anyway”.
    Parents, meanwhile, are more understanding than you might think．“Living on their own in a strange place can be hard –we've been there before,” said Luo's father．“We want to make sure that they are healthy and happy．Sometimes maybe we just worry too much.” As for the tension that's arisen between father and son, Luo senior laughed and said, “It's not a problem at all – he's my son; we work things out, always.”
    1．Having read the passage, we can infer that home is now a(n) ___________for most freshmen.
    A．birdcage                     B．paradise
    C．temporary station in life               D．open house
    2．Why are things even tenser at home for Luo Ruiqi during the Chinese New Year?
    A．He has to spend entire days at a friend's home to “avoid all the restrictions”.
    B．He has decided to go against his parents for his right to be an adult at home.
    C．He feels guilty about his attitude towards his parents.
    D．He has wasted much money his parents gave to him.
    3．According to the text, there exists a main problem between parents and children that_______.
    A．parents want to bring their children under control as before.
    B．children look down upon what their parents always do.
    C．their way of life is apparently different now.
    D．they are always misunderstanding each other.
    4．Who the text implies is mainly responsible for the bad parent-child relationship?

    5．What does the underlined part in the 2nd paragraph probably mean?

    Watercolor is the oldest paints known. It dates back to the early cave men who discovered they could add lifelike qualities to drawings of animals and other figures on the walls of caves by mixing the natural colors found in the earth with water.
    Fresco(壁画), one of the greatest of all art forms, is done with watercolor. It is created by mixing paints and water and applying these to wet plaster(灰泥). Of the thousands of people who stand under Michelangelo's heroic ceiling in the Sistine Chapel, very few know that they are looking at perhaps the greatest watercolor painting in the world.
    The invention of oil painting by the Flemish masters in the fifteenth century made fresco painting go down-hill, and for the next several centuries watercolor was used mainly for doing sketches(素描) or as a tool for study. It was not until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries that English painters put back watercolor as a serious art form. The English have a widely-known love for the outdoors and also small, private pictures. The softness of watercolor had a remarkably strong attraction for them.
    The popularity of watercolor continued to grow until in the twentieth century. The United States passed England as the center for watercolor, producing such well-known watercolor artists as Thomas Eakins and Andrew Wyeth.
    小题1:What is the passage mainly about?
    A．The gradual weakness of fresco painting.
    B．Oils having more power or influence over watercolor.
    C．The rediscovery of watercolor in England.
    D．The start and development of watercolor.
    小题2:The first watercolor artists were ______.
    A．early cave menB．Italian fresco artists
    C．Flemish mastersD．English artists of the 18th century
    小题3:In 16th and 17th centuries the artists thought ______.
    A．watercolor was more costly, but was better
    B．oil painting lasted less long, but clearer and brighter
    C．watercolor was not suitable for finished works
    D．oil painting was difficult to use
    小题4:According to the passage, watercolor painting was put back in England because ______.
    A.it was easy to use outdoors                      B.it was a strong medium
    B.it was extremely bright in color               D.it was well suited to popular tastes
    小题5:What would the next paragraph most probably deal with?
    A．The works of famous American watercolor artists.
    B．The weakness of oils as popular paints.
    C．Techniques of producing watercolor.
    D．Modern American oil painters.

    C
    Have you noticed that the majority of human beings seem to focus on the negative? Bad news is often seen in the newspapers, television shows and magazines, but good news are often overlooked.
    I saw a woman I was not very familiar with. She is a beautiful woman; every time I see her, I am struck by the smile on her face that can light up a whole room. So at one time I walked up to her and said, “You know, you are like liquid sunshine! Every time I see you, you give me so much joy.” I was not quite prepared for her reaction. She was blown away. Her eyes seemed about to shed tears, and she said, “That is so sweet! That is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me!” It was as if nobody had ever told her how beautiful her appearance was. I was extremely moved by the moment I had shared with this woman.
    Why not take notice of the positive and spread a little sunshine? When you are looking for beauty, you will begin to see it more and more. When you discover it, don’t be afraid to appreciate it. Not only will it make them feel good, it will make you feel good as well. I truly believe the saying, “What goes around, comes around.” When you show kindness and sincerity, you will receive it back. You may even discover — much to your surprise — that you become the friend of someone you would never have expected to get along with.
    65. The woman had tears in her eyes because __________.
    A. the man’s behavior was so rude
    B. she was nervous about the man’s words
    C. the man told her the fact she didn’t know
    D. she was so excited at the man’s praise
    66. Which of the following can take the place of the underlined sentence in the third paragraph?
    A. The wise appreciate one another. 
    B. Respect yourself, or no one else will respect you.
    C. There is kindness to be found everywhere.
    D. Everybody should learn to praise others.
    67. The best title for the passage probably is _____.
    A. Pay attention to the positive   B. Everyone likes to be praised
    C. Spread a little sunshine       D. Each of us has good points

    Mobile phones should be banned from cars altogether, according to Dr Hole, senior lecturer in psychology, Dr Hole has emphasized the worrying combination of mobile phones and cars in his new book, The Psychology of Driving.
    Mobile phones, fatigue(疲劳) , eyesight, drugs and age are among the issues considered by Dr Hole as he examines the factors that influence on driving. The book explores the role of each of these elements in increasing the chances of an accident and was inspired by the author's conversations with road safety experts across the country.
    He says: “The government should have banned mobile phones in cars altogether. It has sent out the wrong message by forbidding hand-held phones because this gives the impression that hands-free phones are safe. The problem with mobile phones is not vehicular(车辆的) control and only having one hand on the wheel, but rather it is taking away attention from what is happening outside the car.”
    Myths(荒诞的说法) about older people making worse drivers and claims(说法) about an improved reaction time among younger people are explored in the book. Questions about how drivers decide what to attend to while driving, the role of a driver's expectations in determining what they see and how they respond to the road are among the areas covered in the book. Satellite navigation systems and new design aimed at transforming cars into a mobile office, are among the modern developments which he says now compete for driver's attention behind the wheel.
    Dr Hole says: “We need to be very careful about how we go about handling modern technology in cars, because we are opening a Pandora's Box. When anyone is driving there is a lot of information outside the car and if there is too much going on inside, then there is a danger of overloading the driver.”
    1. Dr Hole’s strong belief that mobile phones should be banned from cars lies in __________.
    A. the inconvenience of having only one hand on the wheel caused by mobile phones
    B. the correct message of getting rid of hand-held phones sent out by the government
    C. the increase of chances of accidents
    D. the advice given by some road safety experts        
    3. Which of the following is not included in his book?
    A. Hand-free phones are safer than hand-held phones.
    B. What drivers have to attend to while driving.
    C. Whether older age and slower reaction is related.
    D. Bad eyesight is one of the factors of causing an accident.                   
    3. Which of the following is true?
    A. Older people are better at preventing accidents.
    B. Younger drivers’ reaction time is relatively shorter.
    C. It is a myth that some old people can still drive.
    D. A driver’s expectations are not covered in the book.
    4. What can we know from the underlined sentence?
    A. What is going on outside is of equal importance to what inside.
    B. Modern developments call for drivers’ attention behind the wheel.
    C. Satellite navigation systems require more cars as mobile offices.
    D. Modern technology is responsible for the distraction (分心) of one’s attention while driving.

    I spotted (发现;认出) him at the checkout counter, bagging at No.14. His arms shook violently as he placed a carton (纸板箱;纸盒) of eggs into a plastic bag. He wore a yellow plastic name tag on which he had written “Jerry” in kindergarten penmanship (书法). He looked middle-aged but his mental age must have been about 12.
    Ever since I smiled at him the first time he bagged my groceries at my local supermarket, Jerry has followed me around like an adoring fan. His lack of boundaries makes me uncomfortable. I don’t know how to avoid being noticed by him. I don’t want to speak to the manager — my complaint could get him fired. So I start avoiding him.
    There are other grocery stores, but I choose this one because it employs people with disabilities, from which my brothers have also suffered.
    Last Wednesday after I finished choosing what I wanted, I turned around and drove my cart to Checkout No.3, hoping Jerry would not notice me and stay at No.14.
    “Paper or plastic, ma’am?” Jerry’s soft voice surprised me from behind. “Paper, please.” I noticed that the checkout stand created plenty of space between Jerry and the clerk. In this situation, he knew where to stand. The clerk said to me: “＄27.30, please.” I handed my own cart, signed my receipt and stepped around the counter, where Jerry was holding my last packet of biscuits. He came towards me, stopping an inch from me. He was too close. I wanted to dash out of the store and leave behind the packet. Instead, I stood with my hand frozen on the cart. His eyes looked lonely — I knew they would follow me after I left the store. I wanted to apologize for my coldness. “I’m …I’m sorry.” A tiny voice inside me said. I tapped my head with my hand as if I had forgotten something. “Forgive me. I’m from New York City. I’m not used to people being so helpful.”
    He laughed. I laughed. His eyes brightened. “It’s my job, ma’am. I like it.” he said. When he offered to push my cart, I didn’t care but nodded deeply. 
    44. The author feels uncomfortable because _______________ .
    A. Jerry is like an adoring fan to her
    B. Jerry is mentally younger
    C. Jerry’s handwriting is terrible
    D. Jerry is too close to her without proper distance

    A. Jerry offered to pay my biscuits
    B. Jerry was left behind with a packet of biscuits.
