class president of James Hillhouse High School，remembers the attack on Pearl Harbor like it was yesterday.On December 7,1941，Pegnataro said，he and his friends were skating when they heard over the radio that America had entered a state of war.Going to war meant no party any more.Pegnataros carefree high school life suddenly came to an end.“Most of us went right into the service after graduation，” Pegnataro said.“We graduated in June and were in the army in July.”Of the 1,585 students at James Hillhouse High School，less than 300 are still alive today and many of them never made it back from war.Pegnataro，who is now 87，decided that along with their 70year class reunion (重聚)，they would also hold that party they never got to have.About 70 people from around the country came to dance on Sunday.“It was excellent.Everyone there just had a great time，” Pegnataro said.“Those that came guessed it might be their last one.”Pegnataro said he_was_on_cloud_nine to bring his wife of 53 years back to the party，and he introduced her to each of his classmates.“Everyone was very excited at the party.Though we had been separated for so many years，the war brought my class closer together，” he said.“We missed out on the party that we should have had.And the 70th reunion was a very important event in our lives，” Pegnataro said.“We all made it.”25When Pearl Harbor was attacked，Pegnataro_.Awent into the army at onceBwas skating with his parentsCwas having a Christmas partyDwas still a high school student26The underlined part “he was on cloud nine” meant Pegnataro_.Awas on a plane Bfelt very happyCwas not comfortable Dcame at nine oclock27What can we learn about Pegnataros class reunion?AIt meant a lot to Pegnataro and his classmates.BIt took place 70 years after he got married.CIt was held in Pegnataros high school.DFew people came to the reunion.28What would be the best title for the text?APegnataroa man of knowledgeBJames Hillhouse High SchoolCAn unusual partyDWar and peaceCIn our daily life，it is necessary to make small talk in certain situations.It helps to fill time between people when it is completely quiet.You may not feel like talking with someone else or you are very shy at the beginning，but it is sometimes thought to be rude to say nothing.People use small talk almost every day.It usually takes place when you meet someone you dont know at all or someone youre not familiar with.For example，waitresses and hairdressers often make small talk with their customers.If you happen to be outside when the mailman comes to your door，you might make small talk with him，too.Most often，small talk happens in places where people are waiting for something.For example，you might talk with another person who is waiting for the bus to arrive.People also make small talk in a doctors waiting room，or when they are waiting in a line to buy something.At the office，people make small talk in elevators or lunchrooms，especially if there is a lineup.Mingling is often required among people who dont know each other very well at a party.In other words，they are expected to walk around and talk with others.The most common time for small talk to happen is the first time you see or meet someone on a given day.For example，if you see a coworker in the lounge (休息室) you might say hello and discuss the sports or weather.However，the next time you see each other you might just smile and say nothing.If there is very little noise，it might be the right time to start a pleasant conversation.If someone is reading a book at the bus stop，it is probably not a good idea to start a conversation.Another good time to make small talk is during a break in a meeting when there is nothing important going on.However，it is important to recognize the signal when the other person wants the conversation to stop.29The underlined word “Mingling” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by_.AHonesty BPolitenessCConversation DUnderstanding30The third paragraph mainly talks about _.Ahow to make small talkBwhen to make small talkCwhere small talk happensDwhy people make small talk31The author develops the last paragraph mainly by_.Agiving explanations Bproviding examplesCtelling stories Ddiscussing questions32We can learn from the text that small talk_.Acan help to break the silenceBwont happen among strangersCis often thought to be unnecessaryDalways makes people uncomfortableDAn old car carried Elvis Presley and his parents out of Mississippi to a better life in Memphis，Tennessee.However，life did not improve for thirteenyearold Elvis，who was immediately recognized as being different from the other teens in his neighborhood.He talked with a thicker southern accent than his classmates.Even the way he dressed set him apart.He wore bright colors instead of the more traditional styles other students preferred.Not surprisingly，young Elvis avoided social situations.One of Elviss few pleasures was music，an interest that his mother，Gladys Love Presley，supported by buying him a guitar.He made his first demo (样本唱片) album the summer after graduation，but instead of offering it to a record company，he gave it to his mother.After Presley performed at an audition (试音)，singer Eddie Bond shook his head and told the eighteenyearold，“Youre never going to make it as a singer.” His confidence shaken，Presley took a job at Crown Electric Company，driving a delivery truck.Months later，a studio asked Presley to perform the song Without You.Although the owner of the studio，Sam Phillips，was impressed with Presleys performance，he did not like the way he performed the song.At Phillipss suggestion，Presley recorded two other songs，Thats All Right and Blue Moon of Kentucky.These two singles helped him land performances at local clubs.Although he was not earning enough to give up his day job，it was a start.The future looked bright when Presley landed a fourweek performing tour in Las Vegas，but the tour was cut in half because of poor ticket sales.Sadness turned to hope when Presley was asked to perform on the Grand Ole Opry，a live radio show.But he was refused after only one performance，and the manager Jimmy Denny told him，“You are going nowhere，son.You ought to go back to driving a truck.”Perhaps the sadness led him to release Heartbreak Hotel the following year.The song topped the R&B，pop and country music charts (排行榜)，and started Presleys great career.He became one of the most successful and popular singers of all time.33.Young Elviss life in Memphis can be described as_.Alonely BexcitingChappy Dbusy34Whats the main idea of Paragraph 3?AElvis Presley found it difficult to find a job.BElvis Presleys music won the support of his mother.CSam Phillips helped Elvis Presley start his music career.DSam Phillips made Elvis Presley popular all over the country.35What does the story of Elvis Presley tell us?AAll roads lead to Rome.BIts never too late to learn.CSuccess never comes easily.DActions speak louder than words.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。How do you stay true to yourself when youre surrounded by friends and/or family that have an
