A gentle wind blew through Jennifer’s hair. The golden red sun was  36  . She was on the beach, looking up at the ball. She was amazed by its   37  , deep red in the middle,  38  fading into yellow. She could hear nothing but the  39  and the seagulls flying up above in the sky.

The atmosphere  40  her. After all she had been through, this is what she   41  . “It’s getting late,”she thought,“I must go home, my parents will be    42  where I am.”She wondered how her parents would react, when she got home after the three days she was  43  .

The sun had set by now and it was getting  44 . She tried to imagine having her favorite  45 on until she saw her front door. It seemed different.   46  had taken care of the outside garden for days. She was   47  : her father was usually so strict about keeping everything clean and tidy, and  now… It all seemed    48  . She couldn’t understand what was going on.She entered the   49 . First,she went into the kitchen where she saw a(n)  50  written by her father. It said:“Dear Ellen,there is some coffee ready,I went   51  .” Ellen was her mother but-where was she? On the right side of the hallway was her    52   room. She went in. Then she saw her mother,lying on the bed sleeping. Her

 53  looked so tired,as if she hadn’t   54   for days. She was really pale. Jenny just fell asleep beside her. When Jennifer woke up she found something  55  . She was in her cozy bed in her nightclothes.

It felt so good being back home. Suddenly she heard a voice.“Are you feeling better now, dear? You know you got us very, very scared.”

 Texting in the street—your funeral

Millions of people are putting their lives at risk by texting their friends as they walk along busy streets, reported the Daily Mail.

One in ten  41  users has already been  42  because they are so lost in their phones that they fail to  43  lamp-posts or cars, according to Joanna Lumdsen of Aston University.

To test the danger of texting while  44  , Lumdsen did an experiment in which volunteers followed a  45  path while trying to  46  in a message on the phone.

Around them, screens  47  up instructions to avoid stepping on  48  colors on the floor.

She found that people missed one in five  49  because they were so busy with their phones.

“In  50  life this means that one in five lamp-posts or moving cars is  51

to go unnoticed by people  52  and walking,” she said.

Her research is looking for ways cell phone makers could improve the  53

of phones to make texting on the move  54  . That could  55  easier-to-use voice operated phones, or phones that respond to gestures.

“The safest thing is  56  people not to text while they walk along,” she said. “ 57  a lot of people in business are  58  to carry a mobile phone and be in  59  24 hours a day, seven days a week. They are under pressure to reply to calls  60  , and to respond to text messages and emails straight away.

13【题文】“Hurry, Mommy! Let’s go trick-or-treating!” My daughter waited by the door in her pink princess skirt while I prayed in the living room. Usually I liked taking her out on Halloween, but this year I was sad. I was worried about my mother, who was in China on vacation. I got a call that afternoon that she had slipped and fallen on the hard floor of her hotel and broken her leg. She was taken to a hospital in Beijing. Mom was nervous because she couldn’t understand any of the doctors. If only I could do something to help her!

I knew I couldn’t let my worries spoil my daughter’s fun. There was nothing I could do for Mom except pray, I thought. We left the house and went down the block. I was so upset that I hardly took notice of the kids around me. There came the man to whose son I’d once given piano lessons. “Hello there,” I said, greeting him and the boy at his side.

“Hello,” the father answered. “Having fun?”“I’m trying,” I said. “Why, what’s wrong?” he asked. I told him the whole story. “My mother, in China, broke her leg and didn’t understand any of the doctors. And I’m too far away to do anything!” I said.

He raised his eyebrows. “Beijing, you said?” he asked. I nodded. He smiled. “Believe it or not, my sister is a doctor at an English-speaking hospital there. If you want, I’ll make a call right away and we’ll try and get your mom transferred (转移).”

A few days later I sat in the living room with my daughter as she finished the last of the candy. “Mommy, how far away is China?” she asked. “Not as far as I thought,” I said.

41.What did the author’s daughter want to do?

A.Pray with the author.

B.Enjoy herself outside.

C.Play a trick on her mom.

D.Go to the theatre to see a play.

42.What was the author’s mother worried about most?

A.She couldn’t get used to the life in Beijing.

B.She was hurt in the leg badly while travelling.

C.She was too old and weak to pray for her daughter.

D.She couldn’t make herself understood by the doctor.

43.The author hardly took notice of the kids around because _____ .

A.she was calling her mother

B.she felt very sad at that time

C.she was about to give a lesson

D.she couldn’t find her daughter

44. We can infer from the text that _____ .

C.the author was a famous music teacher in the town

14【题文】It is winter in many parts of the world. For some areas, that means snow. Maybe even lots of snow. If you don’t have to drive in it or remove it, snow can be very beautiful. When snow covers everything around you, the world looks like a “winter wonderland”. That is the name of a very popular song about winter. Richard Smith and Felix Bernard wrote the song back in 1934. There are hundreds of recordings of this happy song.

But winter is not always such a beautiful and happy time. It’s cold outside. You try hard to keep warm. The days are darker and shorter. The sun rarely shines. The leaves on the trees are brown. It isn’t surprising that some people are sad in winter. And some people dream about being somewhere else where it’s warm and pretty—like the state of California. The Mamas and the Papas recorded this famous song “California Dreaming”.

During the 1960s, many other famous rock groups released songs about winter. Here is a poetic song by Simon and Garfunkel called “A Hazy Shade of Winter”. They sing about life and hope and possibilities.

In 1968, the group Blood, Sweat and Tears recorded this gentle, sad song about winter. They sing about a lost love and forgotten memories in “Sometimes in Winter”.

In the early 1990s, Tori Amos wrote and recorded the beautiful song called “Winter”. She enjoyed singing about winter when she was a child.

Finally, on a happier note comes this song written and recorded by Fountains of Wayne in 2003. They sing about a snowstorm in a New England town. Nothing unusual there. But instead of being sad or tense about the snow, they write a song about it.

49. The underlined sentence “For some areas, that means snow.” probably means 

_____ .

A.In some areas, when it’s winter, it must snow

B.In some areas, it often snows in winter

C.In some areas, it’s important to snow

D.In some areas, people like snow in winter

50. According to the second paragraph, winter is _____ .

A.beautiful and happy

B.happy and warm

C.lovely and hopeful

D.cold and sad

51.Which of the songs can bring us hope of life?

A.Winter Wonderland.

B.California Dreaming.

C.A Hazy Shade of Winter.

D.Sometimes in Winter.

52.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.Winter in different areas.

B.Different ideas about winter.

C.Songs about winter.

D.Winter is cold but happy.

15【题文】A number of scientific studies have suggested that repeatedly heading a football could increase the risk of developing dementia (痴呆症) in later life.

In 2002, former England international footballer Jeff Astle died aged 59. A coroner (验尸官) said that Astle died from a brain disease likely to have been caused by “repeated small damages to the brain” related to heading a heavy leather football.

Dr. Scott Delaney, research director of emergency medicine at McGill University Health Center in Montreal, Canada, has also researched soccer-related head injury and agrees that head-to-head or elbow-to-head blows are the real risk.

In 2007, Delaney carried out a study on footballers aged between 12 and 17 that showed they were half as likely to be concussed (使脑部受到震荡) wearing headgear (帽) than without.

He said youngsters have a higher risk of head injury than adults because their heads are thinner and less able to absorb shock. To make matters worse, their neck muscles aren’t as well developed and they often lack the correct heading technique that can help throw away the force of the ball.

Delaney recommends that children wear headgear when playing football and says his two eldest children wear head protection playing the sport. But he admits that children can be unwilling to be the first to wear head protection—especially when their football heroes play without it.

While headgear can protect footballers from being concussed during a match, no one knows the long-term effects of repeated “sub-concussive” blows to the head.

Delaney says that while there is indirect evidence that a career in soccer can lead to dementia, no one has yet found a sure link between the two. He says proving a link would mean monitoring hundreds of footballers for three or four decades—and that would take a lot of funding.

57.Which might be the best title of the passage?

A.Playing football may lead to brain damage.

B.Repeated small damages to the brain.

C.Footballers should wear headgear when playing. .

D.Evidence to dementia.

58.According to Delaney’s research, what is the most risky injuries to head?

A.Long-term effects of blows.

B.Wearing head protection.

C.Underdeveloped neck muscles.

D.Head-to-head or elbow-to-head blows.

59. Children are unwilling to wear headgear because they think _____ .

A.headgear is harmful to their heads

B.headgear influences their skills

C.they should follow their idols

D.they mustn’t lead the fashion

60.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _____ .

A.Delaney has studied dementia for three or four decades

B.few footballers would like to be studied in the research

C.funding is important in order to carry out the research.

D.no one can find the link between playing football and dementia

16【题文】根据短文内容,从短文后的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。

Are You Ready for College?

Before you send in your college applications, keep this in mind: it’s not the norm (准则) in every culture for students to go to college right out of high school.

 65.  So if you find yourself applying for college simply because it’s the thing to do after high school, think again. Going to college right after high school may be the norm in your community, but it’s not the norm everywhere and it may not be the best decision for you.

 66.  Yes, higher education often gives young people a big advantage in the working world, but not always. A solid technical or business school application can give you an advantage as well, and if the environment seems like a better one for you than a traditional college campus, this might be your best choice. A lot of people lead successful lives with a high school education and years of work experience.

The price of a college or university education has become a serious burden for young people and their families.   67. In some cases, putting off college for a year or two while a student earns money full time can make sense.   68.  

  69.  Almost all students suffer from homesickness, but for some students, the transition may be too much to deal with.

A.Is going to college always the best choice for high school graduates?

B.Spend some time considering your choices before sending in your applications.

C.Besides, it’s quite possible that going to college is not the right choice for you.

D.During this time, the student can take a few inexpensive classes at a community college.

E. So students take massive amounts of loans, which can take decades to pay off.

F. Many young people have other choices, like military service, work experience,

community service or travel.

G. The transition from high school to college is an emotional challenge for almost everybody,

especially if you move away from home.

March 22, 2011   Tuesday                                       Sunny

Today is World Water Day.In the morning, we had a class meeting talking about what to do on this special day. Finally, we reached an agreement and immediately began to make preparations for the afternoon’s activities.

At 2:00 p.m., we went to the neighboring community to hand out leaflets, calling on people to save water. Around 3 o’clock, the expert we invited gave an excellent speech on the current water crisis in China. He talked about the drought in the Southwest and the severe shortage of water in our city. The speech had a strong appeal to all the people present, including me.

After the speech, we had a discussion with our neighbors about various ways of saving water in our daily life. I suggested turning off the water tap immediately after using it, and a granny came up with the ideas of reusing the water from kitchen, for example, the water after washing fruits and vegetables can be used to water flowers and so on.

Today, I have had a better understanding of the importance of saving water and really learnt a lot about saving water.

Tess still stood hesitating like a swimmer about to make his dive,hardly knowing whether to return or move forward,when a figure came out from the dark door of the tent.It was a tall young man,smoking

 He had an almost black face,though red and smooth.His moustache was black with curled points,though he could not be more than twenty, three or—four.There was an unusual force in his face,and in his daring rolling eyes.w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.

 Well,my beauty, what can I do for you?’said he,coming forward.And seeing that she was quite m a loss:'Never mind me. I am Mr.d’Urberville,.Have you come to see me or my mother?’

  This differed greatly from what Tess had expected.She had dreamed of an aged and dignified face.She tried to keep calm and answered —I came to see your mother, sir.

  I am afraid you cannot see her—she is ill in bed, replied the representative of the house;for this was Mr.Alee, the only son of the noble family.’What is the business you wish to see her about?’ w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.

 “It isn't business—it is—I can hardly say what!”

 “Pleasure?”

 “Oh no.Why, sir if tell you, it will seem—”

 Tess's sense of a certain ridicule was now so strong that, despite her general discomfort at being here,her rosy lips curved(弯曲)towards a smile, much to the attraction of the young man.

 “It is so foolish,she stammered(急急巴巴地说):“I fear 1 can't tell you!”

  “Never mind;I like foolish things.Try again,my dear’said he kindly.

 “Mother asked me to come,’Tess continued;and,indeed,I was in the mind to do so myself. But I did not think it would be like this.I came,sir, to tell you that we are of the same family as you”

“Ho! Poor relations?’

“Yes.”

“Stokes?”

“No; d’Urbervilles.”

“Ay, ay;I mean d'Urbervilles.”

“Our names are worn away to Durbeyfield; but we have several proofs that we are d’Urbervilles. The local scholars hold the view that we are, —and—and we have an old seal(印章)and a silver spoon marked with the same castle as yours. So mother said we ought to make ourselves known to you, as we’ve lost our horse by a bad accident; we can hardly make a living.”

“Very kind of your mother, I’m sure,” Alec looked at Tess as he spoke, in a way that made her uneasy.  “And so, my pretty girl, you’ve come on a friendly visit to us, as relations?”

“I suppose I have,” looking less confident and uncomfortable again.

“Well—there’s no harm in it. Where do you live? What are you?
