73:D.考查上下文的理解能力.从空前一句话的意思(她现在和叔叔生活在一起,叔叔穷得连自己的孩子都不能负担学业.但是苏秋菊的学业很不错.)判断,此处最佳选D(她展示了她的书法天赋,把她的名字的那三个汉字写得既整齐又漂亮).
74:G.考查上下文的理解能力.从空前一句话的意思(早在1999年,曾参加了有当地妇联发起的一项帮助贫困家庭的孩子上学的运动.)判断,此处最佳选G(他被孩子们的穷苦困境打动,决定倾其所有来帮助一个女孩.).
75:E.考查上下文的理解能力.从空前一句话的意思(对我来说,孩子们的教育们是最重要的事.)判断,此处选E(孩子们辍学的想法让我晚上睡不好觉.)和后面的语境结合(我得在九月份开学前筹集到足够的捐款.)

10.We often see wind-horse flags in Tibetan areas.They are long cloths on which pictures of horses and scriptures(经文)are printed.People often put these flags on top of houses,or leave them where a vehicle accident happened.They prevent evil spirits from injuring people again.
    A wind-horse flag can be white,yellow,red,green or blue.These five colors symbolize the five elements that form the world; earth,water,fire,wind and sky.Another explanations that red is the sun,green is the grassland,yellow is the earth,blue is the sky,and white is the cloud.
    The wind-horse flag originated with a monk who obtained a scripture from India.When he crossed a river,he carelessly dropped the scripture into the water.He quickly saved the scripture and spread it out on a big rock to dry as he sat in meditation(默想).Suddenly violent thunder sounded like drums.The monk felt liberated(解放的)from all of his sadness,and when he opened his eyes he saw that the scripture had been blown into the sky by a strong wind.Finally,he went straight to heaven.
In order to honor the spirit of the monk and the Buddhist scripture,people printed the scripture on a piece of cloth and hung it up between the sky and the earth as though the scripture was flying in the sky.
    We also know why people put the wind-horse flag on the top of mountains and houses.The Tibetan ancestors had a very great idea about chanting scripture.They thought people not only could chant scripture,but also the five elements.The wind-home flag is a good example of how they use the wind to blow the flag,which means that the wind also chants scripture.
60.The second paragraph is mainly about the wind-horse flag'sA.
A.colors         B.styles            C.materials         D.functions
61.What happened when the monk meditated?B
A.He felt very sad about his mistake.
B.The scripture was blown into the sky.
C.He was punished by the gods.
D.Many wind-house flags were flying.
62.According to the passage,the origin of the wind-horse flag is based onC.
A.a historical event                  
B.an ancient custom
C.a religious tale                    
D.a vehicle accident
63.Why do people put wind-horse flags on the top of mountains and houses?D
A.The wind-house flags are safer there.
B.The wind-house flags can be nearer to the sky.
C.People can see the wind-house flags more clearly.
D.People believe the wind can also chant scripture.

Ugly died in my arms but I sat and held him thinking about how one ugly little thing could so change my opinion about what it means to have true pureness of spirit,to love so totally and truly.He had been hurt on the outside,but I was hurt on the inside,and it was time for me to move on and learn to love truly and deeply.
Many people want to be richer,more successful,well liked,beautiful,but for me,I will always try to be Ugly.

8.Everyone needs friends.We all like to feel close to someone.It is nice to have a friend to talk,laugh and do things with.Surely,there are times when we need to be alone.We don't always want people around.But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.
No two people are the same.Sometimes friends don't get along well,which doesn't mean that they no longer like each other.Most of the time they will go on being friends.Sometimes friends move away,then we feel very sad.We miss them much,but we can call them and write to them.Maybe we would never see them again,and we can make new friends.It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them.Families sometimes name their children after a close friend.Many places are named after men and women,if they are friendly to people in a town.Some libraries are named this way.So are some schools.We think of these people when we go to these places.
There's more good news for people,if they have friends.These people live longer than those people if those don't have friends.Why?It could be that they are happier.Being happy helps you stay well.Or it could be just knowing that someone cares,if someone cares about you,you will take better care of yourself.

15.While many Chinese overseas artists are switching to other more profitable fields,Huang Shanye,a painter of the Zhuang ethnic group,stands out as an exception.His art has gradually earned him fame over the course of his more than 20 years in the United States.He was even able to leave behind his steady job as an art teacher and fully devote himself to what he describes as a pursuit(追求) of beauty.
The common theme of Huang's many works lies in the combination of traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques."I apply Chinese calligraphy(书法),paper cutting,facial makeup of Peking Opera--all the things that I can find in traditional Chinese culture--to Western oil painting,"Huang said at an exhibition held recently in his home county of Montgomery,Maryland in the US,where friends and neighbors had come to view some of his work.
One of Huang's works in the show,which had been featured on the exhibition's flier(广告传单),served as a good example.Titled In Harmony,the painting shows two green dragons facing one another on a golden plate--a characteristic of Chinese tradition.Huang decorated the surface with the words"peace"and"dragon",both in Chinese and in English.Michele Cohen,director of the Betty Mae Kramer Gallery,pointing to Huang's In Harmony,says:"I think this work really shows how an artist can combine one tradition with another,and it really comes out in a mixed form."
In 1998,American composer Silas Huff met Huang at an exhibition and was moved by Huang's sketch Tapestry of Dreams,which was later realized into a large-scale work consisting of a dozen 1-by-1-meter panels of paintings describing the traditions and longings of Huang's people.
Inspired by the work,Huff composed a 25-minute symphony(交响乐),Spring Song Festival,made up of Chinese folk melodies.Ten years later when Huff and Huang reconnected,Huff was able to bring two ballet schools on board and create a ballet based on the symphony.The work was performed at LaGuardia Performing Art Center in New York in the spring of 2009,with Huang's Tapestry of Dreams as a background.
64.What is the theme of Huang's many works?A
A.The combination of traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques.
B.The difference between traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques.
C.The advantages of traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques.
D.The disadvantages of traditional Chinese elements and Western painting techniques.
65.We can inferC.
A.Huff composed a 25-minute symphony,Spring Song Festival after he arrived in China.
B.Huff composed a 25-minute symphony,Spring Song Festival because he graduated in China.
C.Huff composed a 25-minute symphony,Spring Song Festival,because of Huang's work.
D.Huff composed a 25-minute symphony,Spring Song Festival because of money.
66.Which is the best title of the passage?A
A.A Pursuit of Beauty
B.The Life of an Artist
C.True Friends
D.The Differences of Art
67.Michele Cohen,director of the Betty Mae Kramer Gallery,A.
A.thinks highly of Huang's In Harmony.
B.pays no attention to Huang's In Harmony.
C.wants to buy Huang's In Harmony.
D.criticizes Huang's In Harmony.

5.American society is not nap(午睡)friendly.In fact,says David Dinges,a sleep specialist at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine."There's even a ban against admitting we need sleep."Nobody wants to be caught napping or found asleep at work.A proverb says:"Some sleep five hours,nature requires seven,laziness nine and wickedness(邪恶) eleven."
Wrong!The way not to fall asleep at work is to take naps when you need them."We have to totally change our attitude toward napping,"says Dr William Dement of Stanford University,the godfather of sleep research.
Last year a national commission(委员会) led by Dement put forward an "American sleep debt" which one member said was as important as the national debt.The commission was concerned about the dangers of sleepiness:people causing industrial accidents of falling asleep while working.This may be why we have a new sleep policy in the White House.According to recent reports,our President is trying to take a half-hour nap every afternoon.
About 60percent of American adults nap when given the opportunity.We seem to have"a mid-afternoon quiet state",or"a secondary sleep gate".Sleeping 15minutes to two hours in the early afternoon can reduce stress and make us refreshed.Clearly,we were born to nap.
We Superstars of Napping don't nap just to make up for the lost sleep after a night shift(夜班).Rather,we take it,whenever,wherever and at whatever time we feel like it.I myself have napped in buses,cars,planes and on boats; on floors and beds; and in libraries,offices and museums.
56.It is commonly accepted in American society that too much sleep isA.
A.unreasonable B.unfit      C.harmful      D.unfriendly
57.The research done by the Dement commission shows thatC.
A.Americans who sleep too much usually get into debts
B.the commission blamed the national debts on people's sleep
C.not enough sleep is no good for Americans and their country
D.napping at work has caused America many industrial and traffic accidents
58.The writer writes this passage in order toD.
A.warn us of the risks of napping
B.show us the dangers of sleeplessness
C.introduce a national commission on sleepiness in America
D.convince the readers of the necessity of napping
59.From the passage,we can learn that"American sleep debt"is the result ofA.
A.the wrong attitude the Americans traditionally hold toward sleep
B.the sleep policy made by the American government
C.the rapid development of American industry
D.the Americans'worry about the dangers of sleepiness
60.The last paragraph tells us that it isD.
A.preferable to have a sound sleep after a night shift
B.good practice not to nap at work
C.essential to make up for lost sleep
D.natural to take a nap whenever we feel the need for it.

That evening,she was invited to a birthday party which lasted till 2o'clock in the morning.Without company,Agatha walked home along the quiet street.Suddenly from the shadow of a dark building,a tall man with a sharp knife in his right hand ran out at her."Good morning,lady,"the man said in a low voice,"I don't think you wish to die here!""What do you want?"Agatha asked.
