　　I had my first job at the age of thirteen, when a friend of my mother’s who owned a book shop hired（雇傭） me for six hours a week to help her in the shop. I was very 　35　 　to earn my own pocket money and my parents 　3 6　 　interfered（干涉）with how I spent it, even when I was spending it foolishly. They believed that by earning money, spending it, and learning from the 　37　 , I would become more mature（成熟的） and responsible about how to handle work, relationships with others, and money.
　　Like many American parents, my parents also let me and my brothers do things over which they 　38 　　a great deal. When I was sixteen, for example, after I finished high school and before I entered university, I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around Europe. My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great 　39　 　for me. In the end, my father won the argument（爭(zhēng)論） on
the 　40　 　that I limited（限定）my traveling to France, my mother’s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins spread out through the country who could 　41　 　shelter（住處）and help if I needed them.
　　Three years later, my younger brother decided to 　42　 　a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean. Again my mother was very worried and not eager to see my brother leave school, but my father encouraged him and my brother had a(n) 　43　 　year working his way on trains and ships to 　44 　　passage to different ports and cities, and discovering many fascinating places and people.
　　These kinds of experiences are probably rare（稀少的）for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly common. Most parents start 　45　 　their children at a young age to do small things by themselves. By the time they have finished high school, many American kids have already had part-time jobs, traveled around the US or other countries on their own, have selected the university they plan to attend and maybe even 　46　 　on their future career, and so on.
　　35. A. anxious　　 　　　B. content　　　 　　 C. proud　　　　　 　　 D. hopeful
　　36. A. never 　　　 　　 B. ever　　　　 　　 C. always　　　　　　　 D. even
　　37. A. problems　　 　　 B. mistakes　　　　 　C. disappointment　 　　D. failure
　　38. A. helped　　　 　　 B. supported　　　 　 C. shared　　　　　　　D. worried
　　39. A. journey　　　 　　B. experience　　　 　C. decision　　　　 　　D. possibility
　　40. A. situation　　 　　B. agreement　　　 　 C. gesture　　　　　 　 D. condition
　　41. A. promise　　　　　 B. afford　　　　　　C. provide　　　　 　　 D. serve
　　42. A. set　　　　　 　　B. put 　　　　　　　C. take 　　　　　 　　 D. keep
　　43. A. unusual　　　 　　B. hard　　　　　　　C. strange　　　　　 　 D. busy
　　44. A. accept　　　 　　 B. earn　　　　　　　C. find 　　　　　　 　 D. search
　　45. A. bringing　　 　　 B. forcing　　　　 　 C. pushing　　　　 　　 D. protecting
　　46. A. worked　　　 　　 B. decided　　　　 　 C. carried　　　　　　　D. tried

　　　　　　　　　　　　　Just a Quick Nap（打個(gè)盹兒）
　　Do you feel a little sleepy after lunch? Well, that’s normal. Your body naturally slows down then. What should you do about it? Don’t reach for a coffee! Instead, take a nap.
　　It’s good to have a daily nap. First of all , you are more efficient（有效的） after napping. You remember things better and make fewer mistakes. Also, you can learn things more easily after taking a nap. A nap may increase your self-confidence and make you more active. It may even cheer you up. But, there are some simple rules you should follow about taking a nap. First, take a nap in the middle of day, about eight hours after you wake up. Next, a 20-minute n ap is best. If you sleep longer, you may fall into a deep sleep. After waking from a deep sleep, you will feel worse. Also, you should set an alarm clock. That way, you can fully relax during your nap. You won’t have to keep looking at the clock, so you don’t oversleep.
　　Now, the next time you feel sleepy after lunch, don’t get stressed. Put your head down, close your eyes, and catch forty winks.
　　50. After taking a nap, you may feel more 　　　　.
　　A. tired　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B. confident
　　C. sleepy　　　　　　　　　　　　　D. excited

　　51. The proper period of time for taking a nap is 　　　.
　　A. the shorter the better　　 　　 B. as long as you like
　　C. the longer the better　　　　　 D. about twenty minutes

　　For as long as I can remember, Grandma’s plentiful tomato garden has been a sign of summer’s end. Each September, just as the decreased heat of the sun suggests cooler days, Grandma requests (ask for something) my help in her tomato garden. I’m sure that she cannot pick tomatoes without my youthful eyes and quick mind. She says we need to examine each tomato and agree on its readiness for picking. While Grandma’s request for my help in the tomato garden is always the same, her desire for my help seems to increase each year.
　　Grandma has eyes for finding even the tomatoes hidden by undergrowth and other tomatoes. I, however, just turn circles looking for the ones I think Grandma will like. I spot what looks like a ripe（成熟的）tomato, head in its direction, and then get sidetracked by another that appears to be equally ripe. I usually end up watching Grandma and trying to stay out of her way, which seems the only way my eyes and mind are useful.
　　There we are, lost in the tomato vines（藤）. Grandma’s eyes are always knowing, and they are no different in the vegetable garden. From afar she spots (notice) what looks like a ripe tomato. As she walks toward the garden, she evaluates the tomato for a second time, but from a different angle. I already know it will end up in the basket with the pile of others Grandma has carefully chosen. However, Grandma acts as if she needs a final look to be sure. She calls me to her side, kneels beside the vine while enjoying the warmth of the fading sunlight on her face, and grasps the tomato in her hand. She turns each round, red ball toward the sunlight before disconnecting it from the vine with a half-hearted smile.
　　She then looks at me. I nod my head and smile. Grandma assumes I smile in agreement with her tomato selection. I know I smile, instead, at her.
　　52. Why does Grandma ask the author to go to the tomato garden with her?
　　A. He can help pick more tomatoes.
　　B. He can learn the hardship of labor.
　　C. She enjoys staying with him while working.
　　D. She tries to share tomato harvest with him.

　　53. The second paragraph shows that the writer _________.
　　A. isn’t good at picking tomatoes
　　B. doesn’t like to stay with Grandma
　　C. thinks his eyes and mind are useful
　　D. is trying to be out of Grandma’s sight

　　54. What’s the best title of the story?
　　A. Gardening—good for my Grandma.　　　 B. Growing Grandma.
　　C. Gardening—good for my growth.　　　　D. Picking tomatoes.

　　A recent study offers a picture of how dangerous it is to get a lift from a teenage driver. Indeed, a 16-year-old driver with three or more passengers is three times as likely to have a fatal（致命的）accident as a teenager driving alone. However, the possibility of death for drivers between 30 and 59 decreases with each additional (added) passenger.
　　It was also found that the death rates for teenage drivers increased greatly after
10 p.m., and especially after midnight. With passengers in the car, the driver was even more likely to die in a late night accident.
　　Robert Foss, a scientist at the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center, says the higher death rates for teenage drivers have less to do with “really stupid behavior” than with just a lack of driving experience. Both he and the author of the study believe that the way to help solve the problem is to have states setting up so-called graduated licensing systems（等級(jí)執(zhí)照制）. A graduated license requires that a teenager first prove that he/she is able to drive in the presence of an adult, followed by a period of driving with a limited number of passengers, before graduating to full driving on his own. About half of the states now have some sort of graduated licensing system in place. The systems have reduced teenage driver crashes（相撞）, according to recent studies.
　　55. Which of the following situations is most dangerous according to the passage?
　　A. Adults giving a lift to teenagers on the highway after 10 p.m.
　　B. A teenager driving after midnight with passengers in the car.
　　C. Adults driving with three or more teenage passengers late at night.
　　D. A teenager getting a lift from a stranger on the highway at midnight.

　　56. According to Robert Foss, the high death rate of teenage drivers is mainly because __.
　　A. their preference for driving at night　　　 B. their lack of driving experience
　　C. their careless way of driving　　　　　　　 D. their driving with passengers

　　In the Caucasus region（高加索地區(qū)）, nearly 50 out of every 100,000 people live to celebrate their 100^th birthday, and many don’t stop at 100! By comparison, in America only 3 people in 100,000 reach 100. But these Caucasus people aren’t alone. The Pakistani Hunzas, who live high in the Himalaya Mountains, and the Vilcabambans of the Andes Mountains in Ecuador seem to share the secret of long life too.
　　These peoples remain healthy in body and spirit despite the passage of time. While many older persons in industrial societies become weak and ill in their 60s and 70s, some Caucasus people aged 110-140, work in the fields beside their great-great-grandchildren. Even the idea of aging is foreign to them. When asked, “At what age does youth end?” most of these old people had no answer. Several replied, “Well, perhaps at age 80.” The very youngest estimate was age 60.
　　What accounts for this ability to survive (live) to such old age, and to survive so well? First of all, hard physical work is a way of life for all of these long-lived peoples. They began their long days of physical labor as children and never seem to stop. For example, Mr. Rustam is 142 years of age. He remembers his life experience: the Crimean War of 1854; the Turkish War of 1878; the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917. His wife is 116 years old. They have been married for 90 years. Mr. Rustam has no plan of retiring from his life as a farmer. “Why? What else would I do?” he asks. Oh, he’s slowed down a bit. Now he might quit (stop working) for the day after 6 hours in the field instead of 10.
　　All these people get healthful rewards from the environment in which they work. They all come from mountainous regions. They live and work at elevations（海拔）of 5,000 to 12, 000 feet(1,660 to 4,000meters) above sea level. The air has less oxygen and is pollution-free. This reduced oxygen environment makes the heart and blood vessel（血管）system stronger.
　　Another factor（因素）that may lead to the good health of these people is their isolation. To a great extent, they are separated from the pressure（壓力）and worries of industrial society.
　　Inherited（遺傳的） factors also play some role. Most of the longest-lived peoples had parents and grandparents who also reached very old age. Good family genes may, therefore, be one factor in living longer.
　　Finally, although thes e three groups don’t eat exactly the same foods, their diets are similar. All of them eat little animal meat. Their diets are f ull of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, cheese and milk. They never eat more food than their bodies need .
　　It is clear that isolation from urban pressure and pollution, clean mountain air, daily hard work, moderate diets, good genes, and a youthful approach to life all lead to the health and remarkable long life of all these people.
　　57. What is the main idea of this article?
　　A. Cause and effect of long-lived life.
　　B. People in the world enjoying a longer life.
　　C. Factors leading to the health and long life of people.
　　D. A desc ription of several societies where people living a long life.

　　58. “Th e idea of aging is foreign to them” means that _________.
　　A. they don’t care much about their age
　　B. they have no idea of how old they are
　　C. they won’t say anything about their age until they are asked to
　　D. the idea of getting old has never come into their mind

　　59. How do you think the writer feels about these long-lived people?
　　A. He is much impressed with them.
　　B. He doesn’t care a bit about them.
　　C. He hopes that they will live a still longer life.
　　D. He doesn’t think their life is full of pressure and worries.

　　As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult. 　60　 　Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!
　　With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about making choices. In this way you can make healthy balanced decisions. 　61　 　You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you.
　　Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. 　62　 　But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself.
　　It is also perfectly natural at this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens.
　　This period is a part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey. There will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not even see all of your classmates again.
　　You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. 　63　 　So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely.

　　On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Clarke, dressed for going out, took her handbag with her money and her key in it, pulled the door behind her to lock it and went to the Over 60s Club. She always went there on Thursdays. It was a nice outing for an old woman who lived alone.
　　At six o’clock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke in her house? How? Had somebody got in? She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign of forced entry. Had anything been taken? She went from room to room, checking. Yes, some things were missing — her small radio, her spare watch, a camera. That was all, she thought; but she couldn’t be sure just yet. She was annoyed, of course, but rather glad that nothing had been thrown about.
　　Over a cup of tea she wondered whether someone might have a key that fitted her front door — “a master key” perhaps. So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened. Was anyone watching her movements? On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time, dressed as usual, but she didn’t go to the club. Instead she took a short cut home again, letting herself in through the garden and the back door. She settled down to wait.
　　It was just after four o’clock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle（壺）of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire（金屬絲）appeared through the letter-box, and then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the knob（門把手） on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand. There was a shout outside, and the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove. The wire fell to the floor, the hand was pulled back, and Mrs. Clarke heard the sound of running feet.
　　That evening she reported the matter to the police. They were not too pleased, but they came and took away the wire and the skin. “It was only self-protection,” she told the officer. “An old woman must try to look after herself.” With the help of a doctor, the police found the man and recovered Mrs. Clarke’s things. She has become something of heroine at the Over 60s Club.
　　64. When did Mrs. Clarke go to the Over 60s Club?

Dear Mike,
　　I’m sorry to hear that your bag has lost on the playground. You don’t have to worry about it. I think it may be picked by a student or a teacher. Perha ps he’s trying to find the owner of the bag. You’d better go to Found and Lost to look for it, and you also can write a Notice: your name, your telephone number and what’s in the bag. You should believe your bag must belong to you.
　　I hope you can find it as soon as possible. If you find it, please call me.
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Yours,

　　重難點(diǎn)解析：
　　22. B?？疾閯?dòng)詞后接人稱代詞的賓格形式。問句中的David是一個(gè)人，故排除D?！八钡馁e格為him。
　　23. C?？疾橐话氵^去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語態(tài)。
　　24. B?？疾榍閼B(tài)動(dòng)詞may表示許可或征求對(duì)方的許可，有“可以”的意思。
　　25. A。想得到對(duì)方肯定回答時(shí)，用不定代詞something。
　　26. D?？疾樾稳菰~的最高級(jí)。
　　27. D。考查詞組tell the difference between A and B“說出A和B的不同之處”。
　　　　　 此處tell意為“辨別，判斷”。
　　28. C。考查選擇疑問句。就是先把一般疑問句結(jié)構(gòu)寫出，然后在其后加上“or + 選擇部分”。
　　29. A?？疾檫^去進(jìn)行時(shí)。由met可判斷事情發(fā)生在過去，只有A符合語境。
　　30. C。在具體某一天的上午、下午或晚上用介詞on。
　　31. A。考查句型“the+比較級(jí)…，the+比較級(jí)…”表達(dá)“越……，越……”。

　　33. B?？疾閍sk sb. to do sth.“請(qǐng)/讓某人做某事”。
　　34. A?？疾橐蓡柧渥髻e語：疑問詞后的句子用陳述語序。
　　五、完形填空（共12分，每小題1分）

　　重難點(diǎn)解析：
　　35. C。anxious “焦急的”；content“滿意的”；proud“自豪的”；hopeful“有希望的”。
　　　　　 因?yàn)樽约簰赍X自己花，當(dāng)然是值得驕傲與自豪的了。
　　36. A。從下文看她的父母很開通，支持孩子獨(dú)立自主，給孩子鍛煉機(jī)會(huì)，所以判斷它們不會(huì)干涉孩子
　　　　　 如何花零花錢的。故選A. never“從不”。
　　37. B。根據(jù)上下文，可知作者的父母給孩子充分的鍛煉機(jī)會(huì)，哪怕是犯錯(cuò)誤。這里指即使他不理智的
　　　　　 花錢，父母也不會(huì)干涉；好讓他在錯(cuò)誤中吸取教訓(xùn)，學(xué)會(huì)合理地消費(fèi)。故選B。
　　38. D。從第三段第二行“Again my mother was very worried”可知。
　　39. B。A. journey 旅行，旅程；B. experience 經(jīng)歷；C. chance 機(jī)會(huì)；D. possibility 可能性。
　　　　　 從文中以及最后一段“These kinds of experiences…”可知作者希望通過獨(dú)自旅行鍛煉自己
　　　　　 對(duì)自己的成長(zhǎng)來說應(yīng)該是一次難得的經(jīng)歷。
　　40. D。on the condition“條件是”。
　　41. C。provide“提供”。母親的親屬分散在法國(guó)各地，都可以為他提供幫助。
　　42. C。take a year off“請(qǐng)一年假”。
　　43. A。因?yàn)榈艿苁侵鲃?dòng)選擇邊打工邊旅行，因而他一定覺得這樣的經(jīng)歷unusual“不同尋?！保?br>　　　　　 而非 hard“艱苦”，strange“奇怪”或 busy“繁忙”。
　　44. B。這里passage指“乘船或飛機(jī)的航程，旅行，旅費(fèi)”；earn passage to different ports
　　　　　 earn and cities“自己掙錢到各處旅行”。
　　45. C。bringing“帶來”；forcing“迫使”；pushing“促使”；protecting“保護(hù)”。
　　　　　 這里指父母推動(dòng)孩子做自己想做的事，而不是強(qiáng)迫，故選 C。
　　46. B。decide on sth.“決定某事”。
　　六、閱讀下列短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選擇最佳選項(xiàng)。（共26分，每小題2分）

　　C篇：
　　52. C。本題從第一段可知奶奶和她一起摘西紅柿。理由是我的youthful eyes and quick mind。

　　53. A。第二段我找奶奶可能會(huì)喜歡的西紅柿，找到一個(gè)熟的，伸手去摘，卻摘回另外一個(gè)。
　　　　　 可知他很不善于干這種活。

　　D篇：
　　55. B。由第二段可知答案。
