3.Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches(路沟) along the  highway I travel daily to work.
    There is one particular blue flower that has alwayscaught my eye.I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours,the afternoon sun is too warm for it.Every day for  approximately two weeks,I see those beautiful flowers.
    This spring,I started a wildflower garden in our yard.I can look out of the kitchen  window while doing the dishes and see the flowers.I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers.
    Every day I drove past the flowers thinking,"I'll stop on my way home and dig them.""Gee,I don't want to get my good clothes dirty…"I had wanted to stop and dig them but I didn't make it anyhow.My husband even gave me a folding shovel(钎)one year to be used for that expressed purpose.
    One day on my way home from work,I was saddened to see that the highway  department had mowed the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone.I thought to  myself,"Way to go,you waited too long.You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring.''
    A week ago we were shocked and saddened to know that my oldest sister-in-law has a terminal brain tumor(脑瘤晚期).She is 20 years older than my husband and unfortunately,because of age and distance,we haven't been as close as we all would have liked.
    I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us.I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us.
    And yes,if I see the blue flowers again,you can bet I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.

10.Since the beginning of the Internet era it has been pretty widely accepted that when you join an online service,whatever data you put into it belongs to you.That's the way things were-until Facebook came along.Facebook took a different approach.Until recently,everything you put into Facebook-photos,messages,wall posts,your profile info,and,most significant,your address book-could not be exported anywhere.In effect,you didn't own your data.Facebook did.
In October it relaxed things a bit with a policy that lets you export most of your stuff,with one glaring exception:the e-mail addresses of the people on your contact list.All you get is a list of names.Facebook says it can't let you take your friends'e-mail addresses because that information doesn't belong to you; it belongs to your friends.Of course this is rubbish.The reality is that Facebook wants to make it difficult,if not impossible,for you to leave.
Now that policy has sparked a fight between Google and Facebook.Google is steamed because its users can,and often do,export their Gmail contact information into Facebook.But those people can't bring Facebook info back into Gmail.
Earlier this month Google declared it would block exports of its data to services that don't reciprocate -meaning guess who.In a countermove,Facebook hacked around Google's roadblock so its users could keep pulling data from Google.
Google said it was"disappointed"with Facebook's behavior.It also created a warning screen to tell Gmail users that if they export their information to Facebook they won't get it back.
Both companies declined to comment on the record for this story.But what's really going on is that they're at war.Google views Facebook as a threat to its business and has been trying to launch a social-networking service to compete with it.Facebook has rounded up 500million people and intends to generate billions of dollars in revenue(收益) by gathering data about them and selling it to advertisers.
Facebook's position with rival tech companies boils down to this:if you want access to all the information we've collected,strike a deal with us.Microsoft and Yahoo have done that,and now,like magic,they can export Facebook contact info into their systems,while Google still can't.
Remember the early days of the Net,when everything was going to be open and free,and we were all going to share information in a techno-utopia?That was great until people realized that their user data could be turned into gold.Now there are billions at stake,and nobody is playing nice anymore.
41.Before Facebook appeared,people generally believed thatC.
A.they can join any online service at their own will
B.their online information belongs to online service providers
C.they own all the data they put into online services
D.their online service providers should keep their online info secret
42.What does the author think of Facebook preventing its users exporting their e-mail address to other online  services?D
A.It can ensure the safety of its users'information.
B.It has quite reasonable explanation.
C.It is one example often seen in online services.
D.It makes leaving Facebook hard for its users.
43.What's the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 4?A
A.return the favour      
B.update in time     
C.expand widely     
D.guarantee their rights
44.What action did Google take to deal with the threat from Facebook?B
A.It united Microsoft and Yahoo to fight against what Facebook did.
B.It planned to create a social-networking service to fight Facebook.
C.It warned its users of danger of giving away information on Facebook.
D.It created a program preventing Facebook's hackers browsing its site.
45.What does the author say about the Net in its early days?D
A.The data on it was the tool for people to make profit.
B.It didn't allow people to share the information on it.
C.It made people in danger of revealing their privacy on line.
D.All the information it provided was accessible and free of charge.

8.Finding the right school for your child is a process.You will want to read about the school,talk to any friends who are involved in the school and,most important of all,visit the school.
The first step in finding out about Indian Creek is to request an information packet.We will be happy to send you a packet containing a brochure(小册子),the fee structure and an application.The packet should answer most of your general questions about the school.
In order to get a true sense of Indian Creek School,you should come for an Admission Tour,which includes a personal meeting focusing on your child,a tour of the building and the classrooms,and a discussion of the curriculum(课程).
This visit is no less important if the child for whom you are seeking admission is a teenager than if he or she is a three-year-old one.Every school has a different"school climate."If you visit two or three schools,you will notice that each"feels"different.You know your child best and you will quickly develop a sense of whether a school is the right match or not.
The initial point of entry for Indian Creek Students is at the pre-kindergarten level for three year olds.
Children must be three years old by August 31st.
We also have major points of entry from grade six to grade nine.At each of these levels,we open new sections and accept students in addition to those moving up from our own lower grades.
There are scattered(零散的) openings available throughout the program due to attrition(学生流失).Once an opening occurs,students spend a day at ICS,part of which includes admission testing.

A.getting an information packet
B.taking an admission tour

A.having a meeting with the children
B.decide on the design of the classrooms
C.talk with the school about the courses
D.choose the weather suitable for study

15.There is no doubt about it.The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously.I don't mean while you're unconscious.I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in.
That is how I learnt the 30,000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world,mother tongue.I just pick them up.But some of them may be misunderstood.Now,to misunderstand does not mean not to understand.To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.
The 5% mislearnt of all the words we"know"will be the least frequently used words,as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt.Some of the misunderstanding may live with all our lives,without knowing that we got them wrong.
Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one's own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning.They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game."There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across,"they will say."You have to practice guessing what the word means from the context."
This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work.It may succeed in many cases,but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.
And what's more,there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves.Our learners'dictionaries usually have many meanings.A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible.
Don't guess!Look it up!

68.It is certain that the best way to learn new words isD.
A.to learn them by oneself
B.to learn by living in an English-speaking world and using them frequently
C.to guess them from the context
D.to get more separate meanings of each word
69.The underlined word"them"in Paragraph 2 refers toA.
A.the 30,000 words
B.English teachers
C.misunderstood words
D.frequently used words
70.Which of the following is most likely NOT true?D
A.Some of the words the writer knows must have been misunderstood.
B.Most of the 30,000 words the writer learned are frequently used ones.
C.How many words the writer got wrong are not known.
D.All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.
71.It can be inferred thatB.
A.when somebody is conscious,he or she usually can't learn new words by heart
B.we must use the words as often as possible in order to master them
C.it's the best way to learn new words that one should only guess their meanings from the context
D.only dictionaries can help us learn language well.

12.Habits,whether good or bad,are gradually formed when a person does a certain thing again.He is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly,and then a habit is formed.Once a habit is formed,it is difficult,and sometimes impossible,to get rid of.It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits.Children often form bad habits,some of which remain with them as long as they live older.Persons also form bad habits lasting as long as they live,and sometimes become ruined by them.
There are other habits which,when formed in early life,are of great help.Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life,such as early rising,honesty and so on.
Among the habits which children should not form are laziness,lying,stealing and so on.These habits are all easily formed.Unfortunately older persons often form habits which could have been avoided.
We should keep away from all these bad habits,and try to form such habits as will be good for ourselves and others.

49.are formed little by little.C
A.Good habits                        B.Bad habits
C.Both good habits and bad habits    D.Neither good habits nor bad habits
50.The underlined word"them"in the first paragraph refers toA.
A.bad habits    B.good habits    C.children  D.other persons
51.Generally speaking,it's difficult for one _____ and easy for them _____ which should be avoided.B
A.to form bad habits;to form good habits
B.to form good habits;to form bad habits
C.to form such habits as wilI be good;to get rid of bad habits
D.to get rid of bad habits;to form good habits.
