    People are so busy these days that many have no time to cook. This is a problem, because many families love home cooking! A family meal brings everyone together. In some families, meals are often the only time everyone sees one another at the same time.
    Another reason people enjoy home cooking is that it is often a way of showing love. A parent who makes some cookies is not just satisfying a child's sweet tooth. She or he is sending a message. The message says,“I care about you enough to spend an hour making cookies that you will eat up in no time.”
    There is also something about the smell of home cooking. The smell of home cooking pleases people of all ages. It makes most of us feel good and loved—even if we are the ones doing the cooking! Next time you smell a cake being cooked, stop for a moment and pay attention to your mood.
    1. Fewer people cook now because _________.
    A. they have no time.               B. they are not busy.
    C. many people don't like cooking.    D. they don't like family meals.
    2. A parent spends an hour making cookies __________.
    A. just to satisfy her or his child's sweet tooth    B. only to send a message.

    3. The writer thinks the smell of home cooking makes us _________.
    A. feel happy                 B. interested in cooking
    C. pay attention to our mood     D. love others
    4. What's the main idea of this passage?

    第三部分：阅读理解（第一节15小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，共40分）
    第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项
    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 take better care of yourself.
    61. The first paragraph tells us __________.
    A. none needs friends                      B. we always need friends around us
    C. making friends is the need in people's life    D. we need to be alone
    62. Which of the following is what the writer doesn't say in the passage?

    D. People like their friends very much if they get to know them.
    63. Which of the following is the most probable place people name after friendly people?
    A. A house.      B. A room.       C. A library.      D. A village.
    64. If people have friends, they would live longer, because __________.
    A. they feel happier and healthier      B. they get a lot of help from their friends
    C. they take better care of themselves   D. both A and C
    65. This passage tells us __________.

    Several years ago, I read a book Your Money or Your Life, written by Joe Domingguez and Vicki Robin. The major theme of the book is the idea that if you want to cut your spending, you’ll have to begin by stopping trying to impress other people.
    The authors divide people into two groups : people whose opinions you care about, and people whose opinions you don’t care about one way or another. It’s easy to stop caring about people whose opinions you don’t care about. Who cares what they think ? As long as you’re not doing something truly immoral —— something that might potentially create a negative reputation for you —— it doesn’t matter what they think.
    But shouldn’t you impress other people whose opinions you do care about ? Anyway, they are people you want to meet : customers, friends and family.
    The answer is that you don’t need to impress those people with expensive, shiny things. The relationship you’ve built with them —— or you’re going to build with them —— is based on you, not on the material items. They’ll either like you for you or they won’t.
    To put it simply, take care of the basics. Keep yourself clean. Keep your weight under control. Wear reasonable clothing. Work on your communication skills. If you have them covered, you don’t need to invest time and money in impressing other people.
    Coming to this realization is incredibly valuable. It drops your clothing budget. It drops your automobile budget. It drops your electronics budget. It drops your housing budget. You don’t need a shiny car, an iPhone, or a＄50 haircut.
    Yes , you may actually still want one or two of these things, but the impetus(动力) comes from what your personal values are, not what other people around you seem to value or what marketing messages you receive.
    For some people, it seems impossible. Their social cues come from advertising-laden media and from friends who also get their cues from advertising-laden media.They believe they need a slick cellphone and ＄100 casual clothes. Their self-worth revolves around that little burst they get from impressing others.
    People should learn to break through that situation. In short, don’t play socially by the tiring old rules that revolve around needing to impress people. Instead, spend your time on things that bring real value to you and give real value to others.
    66. Which of the following behaviours is “immoral”according to the second paragraph ?
    A. Caring about other people’s opinion.      B. Dropping your clothing budget.
    C. Copying existing works.                 D. Obeying the traffic rule. 67. To build relationship with others, you should pay attention to the following EXEPT _______.
    A. dressing casually                       B. learning about weight control
    C. improving communication skills           D. being a tidy person
    68. As for people we care about, what does the author advise us to do ?
    A. To impress them in a proper way.          B. To buy them special gifts.
    C. To spare more time to be with them.     D. To impress them with shiny things.
    69. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ?
    A. An iPhone is totally unnecessary in our life.
    B. Your family members’opinions are always worth caring about.
    C. Learning how to impress others helps people save money.
    D. You should always be aware of what other people around you seem to value.
    70. What is the best title for the passage ?
    A. Whose opinions do you care about ?           B. Two different groups of people.
    C. My favorite book : Your Money or Your Life    D. Stop trying to impress other people.

    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.

    In ancient China tea was probably used as a relish(开胃小菜) and as a medicine. Tea was first brewed(煮泡) as a medicine around 2,700 BC in the western mountains of China. Tea was likely seen as healthy in part because it was made with boiled water, which is safer to drink in an area of polluted water.
    Tea drinking, and commercial cultivation(种植)，spread during the Tang Dynasty, 618-907, especially after a Buddhist monk(佛教僧侣), wrote a book on the virtues of tea, Cha Ching. Tea gradually became one of the seven basic necessities of Chinese life (The others are fuel, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar.)
    A Japanese Buddhist priest, Saicho, is believed to have introduced tea to Japan, when he returned from a visit to China in 805. In Japan tea drinking was considered medicinal, and became closely associated with Zen Buddhism(禅宗).
    Tea drinking also spread to Korea and Southeast Asia, and was taken over the Silk Road to Central Asia, Russia, and the Middle East.
    Dutch explorers became familiar with tea in the 1590s and were soon importing tea to Europe. In 1657 the British East India Company held the first public sale of tea in England, while that same year Thomas Garraway began offering tea at his London coffee house.
    In 1662 tea received a big boost(推进) in England when the Portuguese Catherine of Braganza, married King Charles II and introduced tea drinking to the British court.
    Gradually, the British fell in love with tea, and with the sugar that went in it. In 1665, less than 88 tons of sugar was imported to Great Britain. By 1700, it had increased to 10,000 tons of sugar. In 1768 the East India Company imported 10 million pounds of tea to Britain.
    1. Tea has been used as a medicine in China for _________.
    A. about 8,000 years      B. about 4,700 years     
    C. about 2,200 years      D. about 2,700 years
    2. Tea began to spread as a popular drink in China because of _______.
    A. the Silk Road              B. the basic necessities of Chinese life
    C. a famous book about tea   D. its association with Zen Buddhism
    3. According to the text, we can infer that Britain________.
    A. first introduced tea to Europe
    B. was the first country to trade with China for tea
    C. was the first country to have learned about tea from China
    D. may be the biggest imported country of tea in Europe even today
    4. What is the text mainly about?
    A. The history of tea             B. How tea was introduced to other countries
    C. China is the home of tea   D. The importance of tea

    What makes a house a home?
    Not size, of course. I’ve been in some of the grandest houses in America and it’s readily apparent no one lives there. Earlier this year in a mud hut in Ethiopia, where we sat on chairs next to the hostess’s bed—a home that had more warmth than any house I’ve been in since.
    Now John Edwards is exploring what makes a house a home in his just-released book-- The Blueprints of Our Lives. There Edwards writes, “ This is a book about homes, the values they rest on, the dreams they are filled with, and the people they have shaped. The houses and circumstances (环境) are different, but much of what you find inside will be familiar.”
    Whether you’re sitting in an airport right now, waiting to fly to your childhood home for Thanksgiving, or in your own home waiting for the relatives to arrive, you know what he’s talking about.
    We’ve lived in our townhouse for 21 years--the loose windows that make noise in the wind, the fireplace so shallow it holds only one log, the kitchen window that offers a view of the world passing by. It is where friends sit on the kitchen counter drinking wine while dinner is being fixed. I lived there for only 18, but it will always be my true home. Even the lamp in the west living room window, which I could see far down the road when driving home late at night, still shines.
    While all this talk about childhood memories can be warm and comforting, home is whom you’re with, not where you are. As Edwards writes, “ Home is family. Home is safety. Home is faith.”
    69. What would be the best title for the text?
    A. Home means everything            B. What’s inside makes us feel at home
    C. Home: The Blueprints of Our Lives   D. The importance of Houses
    70.   The purpose of the second paragraph is to _________.
    A.    mean the author likes living in grandest houses 
    B.   prove the author got along with the hostess
    C.   mean the feeling of a home isn’t related to the size
    D.   show the author’s different feelings about houses
    71. We know that The Blueprints of Our Lives ________
    A.   is the description of Edwards’s houses
    B.   is mainly about houses
    C.    helps us to understand the concept of home
    D.    is written by the author of the text
    72. According to the text, which of the following can make a house a home?
    A. The atmosphere you feel                B. The color of the walls
    C. The number of family members           D. The position of the home
