Of all my memories I have one that I would consider a perfect childhood memory.In my neighborhood there is a large lake with a small island in the center of it for as long as I could remember. It had been every childs dream to get to it, It was to be our greatest adventure. We named it Alligator Island, because of the alligators(鳄鱼) that were removed to live on the island and in the surrounding lake.One day when I was about 10 years old, I was helping my friend Erika clean out her garage and we discovered a blow-up raft(皮筏). Naturally we had to wonder if it would stay a float in the water, so we decided to blow it up and find out. After a few hours of taking expelling the wind from our lungs, the rubber boat was finally ready to test. We took it to the pool and some enough, it did float. Immediately we began making plans to visit Alligator Island with our new means of transportation.We decided to ask Erikas brother and another of our friends to come with us. Since the lake was across the street from Erikas house, we did not have to pull the raft far and soon we were on our way to the island.About halfway to A1 we began to get nervous about the possibility of alligators really being in the lake and we tried to turn around, but none of us knew how to use the paddles very well. After a few attempts, we realized how silly we were and continued onward. When we finally did reach the small land mass, it was not anything special. Just a few trees, some dirt, and insects. But the excitement and pleasure of actually achieving our goal were al we needed.Needless to say, we were the envy of the neighborhood for quite some time. This is my perfect childhood memory and it is something I doubt I will ever forget for as long as I live.56.

Alligator IslandBWhat do Harrison Ford, Mel Gibson and Philcollins all have in common? They were all bullied(欺负)at school.If youre being bullied, it doesnt mean there is something wrong with you. You have a right to feel safe. If you are being bullied at school, it is the schools responsibility to stop it. If you are being attacked outside of school, the police have the responsibility to help you.The bully is the one with the problem.A lot of bullies are already being bullied themselves. They feel powerless and so they look for ways to feel tough at school or in the street.Often, the bully is envious of other kids, so he picks on those who are cleverer, or those kids who have cool dress or more money. Usually bullies dont like themselves, so they take out their frustrations(沮丧)on someone else, you.What can you do?* Look calm and confident even when you are not! You can practice this in the bathroom mirror.* If possible, ignore the bully. Bullies want a reaction(反应)if you dont seem upset, or angry, theyll often leave you alone.* Walk away. Just because a bully starts an argument doesnt mean you have to hang around and finish it.* Avoid being alone. Bullies are cowards(懦夫)who only pick a fight when they know they can win. If you are with friends, they are more likely to leave you alone.Get help!Tell an adult you can trust. This doesnt mean you are weak. In life you often need to get help from other people. When you have a broken leg, you get help from a doctorit doesnt mean you are weak. If you are being bullied you also get help. Bullies want you to keep quiet.

His wife, Gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria, but work for Dave was scarce, and the price of everything was rising. The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift$7，000，a legacy (遗产) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident . “It really made a difference when we were going under financially.” says Dave.But the Fusses werent the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive unexpected legacy from the Hatches.

They could go out to a bar or pub, they could enjoy a good meal or they could go to a club. Thats what may have happened a few years ago. However, new research has shown that three times as many Britons would rather stay in and cook a meal for friends than have a wild night out. These people are being described as the Stay Home and Entertain Friends (SHEF) brigade(队，组).Mark is an IT manager from Manchester and could be described as a SHEF. “I like to socialize with my friends, but going out every weekend can be really expensive. Weve found another choice; head to the local pub for one or two drinks, then go back to one of our homes for food, drink and some music. Much less trouble and more fun than going into the city center and struggling to get a taxi at 2 !”The survey also found that twice as many men as women associated romance with home-cooked, candlelit dinners with their partners, claming that this was a perfect way for a great Saturday night.According to another study by insurance company More Than, people are also turning to their homes as a source of entertainment and a shelter from the stress of modern living. The new “staying in” culture is driving increased spending on home improvement and entertainments systems within the home. Many people in the UK have set up home cinemas with plasma screen(等离子屏幕)televisions, satellite televisions and DVD players.Maybe, soon the popularity of this trend of staying in will decline and going out will become the new staying in!71. What would be the best title for the text?A. Trends in Britain Are Always Changing. B. Staying in Is the New Going Out.C. Staying in or Going Out? D. Stay in and Enjoy the Romance.72. A SHEF is a person who _.A. is very generous to a friendB. tries to save money by having meals at homeC. entertains a friend at homeD. invites a friend out for entertainment73. It can be learned from the text that men prefer to stay at home because _.A. they feel more pressure from modern lifeB. they like the romantic atmosphere with their partnersC. they dont like to socialize with their friends at weekendsD. their partners dont like them to go out74. The author thinks that _.A. the popularity of this trend of staying in will be increased as time goes onB. people neednt go out with everything at homeC. people will have different trends at different timesD. the trend of staying in will stay fixed for a long time75. The underlined phrase “staying in” in the last sentence of the passage probably means _.A. experience B. force C. SHEF D. trend第卷(共 45分)第四部分 书面表达(共两节，满分 45分)第一节 阅读表达(共 5小题，每小题 3分，满分 l5分)Man
