16.Dear John,
My name is Amber and I want to share my story with you because what you've shared about life and positive energy has changed my life.This past year has been one of the hardest for me.I felt I was stuck in a position that had nothing to do with what I wanted to do with my life.In January,after two years of being together,my boyfriend left me.
I read your blog every morning as I drink my coffee at work,but it wasn't until this March that I told myself"no more negativity"as you taught readers in your blog.
Since then I've got into new habits at work to keep my energy positive.When people walk in the front door,I'm the first face they see,so I smile big when I say"good morning"to them,especially on Mondays.Instead of waiting for someone to ask me for help,I offer it with an open mind.The CEO noticed my change and offered me the executive assistant position that I wanted.
One of the biggest things I've taken to heart from your blog is changing my opinions on my job.Yes,it was not an important position,but when I was passionate (热情的) about it,I could make my life fulfilling.
All in all,I have to thank you somehow for having the passion to help others because it truly is inspiring to me.So thank you so much,John.My life has changed because your words pointed me in the right direction,Take care!
Sincerely,
Amber

28.Amber wrote the letter mainly toD
A.introduce herself to John            
B.talk about her bad year
C.ask for some advice                
D.express her thanks
29.We can infer from the passage that AmberC
A.didn't like her boyfriend            
B.spent a lot of time online
C.wasn't satisfied with her job         
D.received very good education
30.What does Amber's change tell us?C
A.Practice makes perfect.
B.Bad luck doesn't exist long.
C.A positive attitude is rewarding.
D.A friend in need is a friend indeed.

分析 本文是一封感谢信.安伯感谢约翰通过激励性的博客使自己对生活有了崭新的认识.

解答 28.D推理判断题.根据文章最后一段的第一句"All in all,I have to thank you somehow for having the passion to help others because it is truly inspiring to me."可知,安伯写信的目的是为了表达感谢他的博客给他带来的巨大帮助,故选D项.
29.C推理判断题.根据文章句子 I felt I was stuck in a position that had nothing to do with what I wanted to do with my life..可知过去的这段时间里我一直在做一件与我喜欢无关的工作,可推知安伯之前对自己的工作不满意,故选C项.
30.C推理判断题.根据文章句子The CEO noticed my change and offered me the executive assistant position that I wanted.和Yes,it was not an important position,but when I was passionate (热情的) about it,I could make my life fulfilling.可知正是因为改变了自己的态度,所以我的生活发生了很大的改变,我也获得了自己想要的工作.也就是积极的态度可以给我们的生活带来的回报,所以答案选C.

6.It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams,the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life,but manners on the road are becoming terrible.Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel.It is all right to have a tiger in a cage,but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter.
Road politeness is not only good manners,but a good sense.It takes the most cool-headed (头脑冷静的) drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when they are forced to face rude driving.On the other hand,a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting.A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions.But such behavior of politeness is by no means enough.Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However,misplaced(用错了地方的) politeness can also be dangerous.A typical example is the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time.The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.
An experienced driver told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in a traffic stream without causing total blockages( 拥堵) that give rise to unpleasant feelings.Unfortunately,modern drivers can't even learn to drive,let alone(更不用说) master the roadman ship ( 公路驾车技能).Years ago,experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give and take( 互谅互让) from all road users.It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.

21.The passage mainly talks aboutC.
A.traffic jams      B.good manners
C.road politeness   D.modern drivers
22.Troubles on the road are often caused byB.
A.traffic jams
B.the behavior of the drivers
C.the great speed of modern life
D.terrible road conditions
23.According to the writer,a good driver shouldC.
A.encourage children to cross the road whenever they want to
B.beat back when forced to face rude driving
C.be able to recognize road politeness when he sees it
D.join in a traffic stream quickly however other people feel
24.It is not right for drivers toD.
A.master the roadmanship
B.join in a traffic stream
C.give a friendly nod in answer to an act of politeness
D.encourage old ladies to cross the road whenever and wherever they want to.

11.It was raining as I ran out of the church,eager to get home and play with the gifts Father Christmas sent me.Across the street was a gas station,which was closed for Christmas,but I noticed a family standing under the narrow overhang to keep dry.I wondered briefly why they were there but then forgot about them as I couldn't wait to see my gifts.
Once I got home,there was hardly any time to enjoy my gifts.My grandparents were still waiting for us to have Christmas dinner together at their house.As we drove down the highway,I noticed that the family was still there.
The closer we got to my grandparents'house,the slower the car went.Suddenly,my father U-turned and said,"I can't stand it!""What?"asked my mother."It's those people back there at the gas station,standing in the rain."
When my father pulled into the station,I saw there were five of them:the parents and three children-two girls and a small boy.Then we learned that the family was waiting for the bus to Birmingham,where the man planned to find a job.
"Well,that bus won't come along for several hours.Winborn's just a few miles away,and there is a shed(棚) with a cover there,"my father advised."I will run you up there."
Then they climbed into our car.My father looked back and asked the children if Father Christmas had found them.Three sad faces gave him his answer.
"Well,Father Christmas said he was having trouble finding you,so he just left your toys at my house this morning.Let's go to get them first,"my father said.All at once,the three children's faces lit up.
When we arrived at our house,one girl spied a lovely doll,that little boy took a ball,and the other girl picked up something else.That was the Christmas when I learned the joy of making others happy.
21.At the gas station the family might feelA.
A.anxious
B.disappointed
C.frightened
D.ashamed
22.The three children received Christmas gifts thanks toB.
A.the author    
B.the author's father

D.their grandparents

A.knew that family very well
B.got lost on the way to Winborn
C.sent that family to Birmingham
D.was happy to help those in trouble

8.Sally Donovan is cooking when a paper plane flies across the kitchen and lands at her feet.She picks it up,unfolds it and finds a child's sketch (素描) of a tear-stained face with a speech bubble saying:"I'm sorry I was naughty-I'm a bad person."
   Sally,42,draws a big smiley face on the back of the paper with"I love you,Rose,and we're always going to look after you."Then she folds it up and launches the plane back into the living room where her nine-year-old daughter is watching TV with brother Jamie,13 and dad Rod,40.
Jamie often makes pictures for his parents too-like the one showing a swift river with them on one side and him trapped on the other side.
It's one of the many unusual ways that Sally and Rob have learned to communicate emotionally with their abused children in an astonishing eight-year journey of hope,healing and love.
Jamie was just four and half-sister Rose one when they were adopted by the Donovans in 2005.The youngsters had been taken from their natural mother and placed in foster care after a series of cruelty and neglect.They were left alone,hungry,and witnessed home violence on a regular basis.
Sally and Rob spent three years trying for a baby before deciding to adopt,and were well aware of the youngsters'poor background.But they were still unprepared for raising a child permanently scared by abuse or the lack of support on offer.
But now Sally has written a brilliant and heart-touching account of their family struggle in a book called"No Matter What".Sally said:"These kids come to you with a story that what happened to them was their fault-because they are bad and unlovable.To show them they are loveable and none of it was their fault takes a lot of time.They both still say"I'm bad".Jamie is less stuck on it now but whenever life deals him a knock,he will fall back into‘that happened because I am stupid,I'm rubbish,I'm bad'."
Sally's book is humorous,heart-touching and so wildly honest that academics,charity bosses,parents and adoptees are praising it as a major contribution to child welfare work.
21.Sally and Rob adopted the two children mainly becauseC.
A.they knew the children's background very well
B.they wanted to help the children out of trouble
C.they couldn't have children of their own
D.they couldn't bear the cruelty done to the children
22.Why did the two adopted children still say"I'm bad"?C
A.They know clearly they are not lovable enough.
B.They often put the situation in an embarrassment.
C.What they suffered rooted deep in their minds.
D.They are honest of what they have done.
23.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?B
A.Rose was a baby when adopted by Sally and Rob.
B.Sally has written a book about how to adopt children.
C.Jamie still blames himself for whatever happens to him.
D.There is still a long way to go for helping the children out.
