    Friendship is unconditional and uncritical, based only on mutual respect and the ability to enjoy each other's company. These authority figures never saw the way one of us could do something outrageous（令人不可容忍的）, and the rest of us would joke about it for days. We could have fun doing absolutely nothing at all—because the ____ 21____ we provided each other with was enough. Rather than discussing operas, Lewinsky, or the weather, we enjoyed just ____22____ each other without any one of us trying to outsmart the others. Still, I realize that these adults had a____23____ to be concerned about the direction my friends were____24____; I also was concerned for them, but I wasn't about to ____25____ them.
    Many times I would advise my friends that some activity may be ____26____ or to think things through before doing something, but I would never claim to hold the moral high ground and to condescend(屈尊) to them. When Marvin would begin rolling joints, when Alisa would tell me she skipped school because of a hangover, or when Merriam would tell me that her new boyfriend was in a street gang, I expressed my discomfort with their ____27____. However, I never ____28____ them with the threat of taking my friendship away. Contrary to the commercials on television, you can have ____29____ who use drugs. In fact, probably everyone does without ____30____ it.

    Part Four: Writing
    Section A (10 points)
    Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage.
    The art of growing dwarf （short） trees， or “bonsai” as their Japanese planters call them， is increasing in popularity in the United States. Growing bonsai can make a fascinating hobby for anyone who enjoys plants and creating beautiful effects with them. However， how can we meet the goal of making such a kind of art？ This maybe is the problem for many of us.
    There are， in fact， four important guidelines to follow in growing bonsai. First， one must be careful in choosing the type of tree. Not all species of trees can be made into bonsai， since the growing conditions are unusual.
    Second， one must be careful in choosing the size of the container the bonsai will be in. This is necessary because the major growth of bonsai is kept confined to the tree’s trunk and leaves， not its root system.
    Another thing the bonsai-grower must do is to trim （修整） the roots and branches of the tree periodically （定期地）。 Unless this is done， the plants will look unnatural. The Japanese ideal for bonsai is not to have the proper proportions and will have trees which are just like normal trees in everything， but in small size.
    The last thing one must do is to be careful to keep the miniature （small） tree well-watered， or it will die.
    As one can see from above， the art of bonsai-growing is one which requires a certain amount of time and effort. The satisfactions that growing bonsai brings can be great， however. Imagine having such a tree in your living room and passing it down through several generations of your family. That is exactly what bonsai-growing is all about： establishing a tradition of beauty which lasts for years and years and is a symbol of the beauties of the natural world.
    Title： 71. ___________
    72. _________
    		To teach people how to grow bonsai
     
    Guidelines
    		Aspects
    		73. ___________
    The  74.___ of  tree
    		75. ___ species of trees can’t be made into bonsai
    The size of the container
    		The bonsai’s 76._____ is confined to its trunk and leaves
    77. _____  trim
    		It will make the plants look 78. _________.
    Enough water
    		It keeps the plants 79. _________.
    80. ________
    		Bonsai-growing establishes a tradition of natural lasting beauty.

    The Monster of Lake Tianchi
    The "Monster of Lake Tianchi" in the Changbai Mountains in Jilin province, northeast China, is back in the news after several recent sightings. The director of a local tourist office, Meng Fanying, said the monster, which seemed to be black in colour, was ten metres from the edge of the lake during the most recent sighting. "It jumped out of the water like a seal—about 200 people on Changbai's western peak saw it," he said. Although no one really got a clear look at the mysteriouscreature, Xue Junlin, a local photographer, claimed that its head looked like a horse.
    In another recent sighting, a group of soldiers claim they saw an animal moving on the surface of the water. The soldiers, who were walking along the side of the lake, watched the creature swimming for about two minutes. "It was greenish-black and had a round head with 10-centimetre horns", one of the soldiers said.
    A third report came from Li Xiaohe, who was visiting the lake with his family. He claims to have seen a round black creature moving quickly through the water. After three or four hundred metres it dived into the water. Ten minutes later the monster appeared again and repeated the action. Mr Li Xiaohe said that he and his family were able to see the monster clearly because the weather was fine and the lake was calm.
    There have been reports of monsters in Lake Tianchi since the beginning of the last century, although no one has seen one close up. Some photos have been taken but they are not clear because it was too far away. Many people think the monster may be a distant cousin of the Loch Ness monster in Scotland. They also think that there might be similar creatures in other lakes around the world. Scientists, however, are sceptical. They say that the low-temperature lake is unlikely to be able to support such large living creatures.
    Lake Tianchi is the highest volcanic lake in the world. It is 2,189 metres high and covers an area of about ten square kilometres. In places it is more than 370 metres deep.
    76. How many sightings of the monster does the article report?
    _________________________________________________________________________________
    77. Who saw the monster clearly, and why?
    _________________________________________________________________________________
    78. Which description of the monster is most detailed?

    79. When was the monster first sighted?

    The effects of rapid travel on the body are actually far more disturbing than we realize. Jet Lag is not a psychological consequence of having to readjust to a different time zone. It is due to changes in the body’s physiological regulatory mechanisms, specifically the hormonal systems, in a different environment.
    Now that we understand what Jet Lag is, we can go some way to overcome it. A great number of the body’s events are scheduled to occur at a certain time of day. Naturally these have to be regulated, and there are two regulatory systems which interact.
    One timing system comes from the evidence of our senses and stomachs, and the periodicity we experience when living in a particular time zone. The other belongs in our internal clocks (the major one of which may be physically located in a part of the brain called the suprachiasmatic nucleus) which, left alone, would tie the body to a 25-hour rhythm. Normally the two timers are in step, and the surroundings tend to regularize the internal clocks to the more convenient 24-hour period.
      If, however, you move the whole body to a time zone which is four hours different, the two clocks will be out of step, like two alarm clocks which are normally set together, but which have been reset a few hours apart. Whereas the two clocks would normally sound their alarms together, now they ring at different times. Similarly, the body can be set for evening while the sun is rising.
    In time the physiological system will reset itself, but it does take time. One easily monitored rhythm is palm sweating. A man flown to a time zone different by 10 hours will take eight days to readjust his palm sweat. Blood pressure, which is also rhythmical, takes four days to readjust.
    What can we do about it? It is not feasible to wait four days until the body is used to the new time zone. Fortunately there is a short cut. It relies on two things-the power of the stomach to regulate the timing of other events, and the pharmacological actions of coffee. The basic assumptions are:
    Coffee delays the body clock in the morning, and advances it at night. Coffee at mid-afternoon is neutral. Protein in meals stimulates wakefulness, while carbohydrates promote sleep. Putting food into an empty stomach helps synchronize the body clock.
    46. What is jet lag associated with?
    A. Psychological change.           B. Physiological change.
    C. Inexperience of rapid travel.      D. Unfamiliar environment.
    47. What helps us to adjust to a 24-hour rhythm?
    A. Alarm clock.                  B. Suprachiasmatic nucleus in our brain.
    C. Signals from outside of the body.   D. Our senses and stomachs.
    48. What do we know from the fifth paragraph?
    A. A person moving to a different time zone will suffer from high blood pressure.
    B. A person moving to a different time zone will sweat a lot.
    C. Moving to a different time zone will affect both palm sweat and blood pressure.
    D. If the rhythm of blood pressure and palm sweat are not in step, there will be jet lag.
    49. What should we do if we want to stay awake?
    A. To take coffee at three o’clock in the afternoon.
    B. To have meals that contain lots of protein.
    C. To have some carbohydrate drinks.
    D. To stop putting food into our stomach.
    50. How can we cure jet lag?
    A. To sleep for days.      B. To wait for self-recovery.
    C. To drink tea.          D. To get something to eat.

    Determined to make school more related to the workplace, Roosevelt High School in Portland, Oregon, developed a school-to-work program. In their first year, students are offered some job pathways in natural resources, human services, health care, business, arts and communication. The following year, each student chooses one of the pathways and examines it in depth, spending three hours a week watching someone on the job. Such a program is also in practice in some other states.
    The school-to-work program is built around a partnership(伙伴关系). For example, Eastman Kodak, a major employer（雇主） in Colorado, introduces students to business by helping them construct（建设） a model city using small pieces of wood. “The children use the models to decide on the best place to set up schools,” says Lucille Mantelli , director for Eastman Kodak in Colorado.  Kodak introduces math by teaching fifth graders to use their pocket money properly.  They also provide one-on-one job watching experiences and offer chances of practice for high school juniors and seniors. “Students come to the workplace two or three hours a week,” explains Mantelli. “They do the job for us. We pay them and they get school credits (学分). We also give them our views on their performance and developmental opportunities.”
    In these partnerships, everybody wins. The students tend to（倾向于） take more difficult courses than students in schools that don’t offer such programs. Business benefits（获益） by having a better prepared workforce needed in future years. “It’s a way for us to work with the school systems to develop the type of workforce we’ll need in future years,” Mantelli continued. “We need employees who understand the basics of reading and writing. We need them to be good at math and to be comfortable working on a team.”
    “Our theory is that they can learn as much outside the classroom as in. All students have the ability to change the world, not just to live in it. To do that, they have to know how to solve problems and use critical（批判的）thinking skills. We need to encourage them to dream about jobs that go beyond what they see today,”  concludes（得出结论） a school-to-work program organizer.
    58. Using the example of Eastman Kodak in Colorado, the writer shows us ____.
    A. what the school decides to do 
    B. why the students get paid for their jobs 
    C. where the students have their math class 
    D. what role the business plays in the program
    59. The main purpose of the school-to-work program is to _____.
    A. offer students more difficult courses             
    B. introduce new job opportunities to schools
    C. improve relations between students and teachers 
    D. make what students learn in school related to the workplace
    60. According to the text, Lucille Mantelli is ____.
    A. a math teacher                 B. a school designer      
    C. a company manager          D. a program organizer
    61. What does the writer mean by saying “…everybody wins.” (Paragraph 3)?
    A. Students get school credits by taking examinations.
    B. Both students and business benefit from the program.                  
    C. The working conditions of the company have improved greatly.
    D. Every teacher and student gets paid for working outside the school.

    In our life, we have rarely expressed our gratitude to the one who'd lived those years with us．In fact, we don't have to wait for anniversaries to thank the ones close to us —the ones so easily overlooked．If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is this: give it now! While your feeling of appreciation is alive and sincere, act on it．Saying thanks is such an easy way to add to the world's happiness．
    Saying thanks not only brightens someone else's world, it brightens yours．If you're feeling left out, unloved or unappreciated, try reaching out to others．It may be just the medicine you need．
    Of course, there are times when you can't express gratitude immediately．In that case don't let embarrassment sink you into silence —speak up the first time you have the chance．
    Once a young minister．Mark Brian, was sent to a remote parish of Kwakiuti Indians in British Columbia．The Indians, he had been told, did not have a word for thank you．But Brian soon found that these people had exceptional generosity．Instead of saying thanks, it is their custom to return every favor with a favor of their own, and every kindness with an equal or superior kindness．They do their thanks．
    I wonder if we had no words in our vocabulary for thank you, would we do a better job of communicating our gratitude? Would we be more responsive, more sensitive, more caring?
    Thankfulness sets in motion a chain reaction that transforms people all around us—including ourselves．For no one ever misunderstands the melody of a grateful heart．Its message is universal; its lyrics transcend （超越） all earthly barriers; its music touches the heavens．
    53．In the first paragraph the writer mainly encourages us      .
    A．never to overlook our close friends in daily life
    B．to express our sincere thanks timely to those around us
    C．to wait for a proper occasion to show our thanks
    D．to increase the world's happiness by saying thanks
    54．According to the writer,      could be the best way to prevent ourselves from being left out.
    A．seeing a doctor to find the right medicine we need
    B．expressing our thanks as much as we can
    C．showing others actively we are interested in them
    D．speaking up the moment we have the chance
    55．Mark Brian's story is mentioned in the passage in order to show the fact that       .
    A．the Indians didn't have any words for appreciation
    B．the Indians were particularly generous to others
    C．Mark Brian's set the Indians an example to show thanks
    D．some people may express their thanks through different approaches
    56．What message does the writer intend to communicate in the last paragraph?
    A．Thanks is of great importance in developing harmonious relationship．
    B．One grateful heart is surely to deserve another good one in return．
    C．Thankfulness which goes beyond all barriers is universally understood．
    D．Human beings would misunderstand each other without appreciation．
