His father worked for an airline. For the first 16 years of his life, Wheeler and his family lived in many different countries.In the early 1970s, Wheeler met a young woman named Maureen. They soon married. Before getting jobs, Tony and Maureen wanted to travel. They took a year-long trip from London，through Asia, to Australia. On the trip, they visited places like India, Iran, and Afghanistan. Tony and Maureen arrived in Australia，people asked many questions about their trip. To answer these questions, Wheeler wrote a guidebook called Across Asia on the Cheap. The book told people about different countries weather，customs(风俗）, and places to see. But unlike travel guides in the 1970s, Wheelers book also talked about places most tourists did not go. He also wrote about unusual things to see and do. The book was very popular.Wheeler and Maureen started a company called Lonely Planet. They continued travelling. They wrote guidebooks for each place they visited. Today, 400 people work for Lonely Planet. The company has over 650 guidebooks. Wheeler still writes about travel “hot spots” (for example, Cambodia in Asia and Croatia in Europe). For more information, read the books!21. Which trip was Tony Wheelers first guidebook about?A. The United Kingdom. B. From Asia to England.C. From Australia to Afghanistan. D. From England to Australia.22. Why did Tony Wheeler write his first guidebook?A. He needed the money. B. His wife asked him to do it.C. Many people asked questions about his travels. D. He liked writing books.23. How was Across Asia on the Cheap different from other travel guides?A. It talked about places most tourists did not go.B. It was longer and more expensive.C. It told people about a countrys weather，customs，and places to see.D. It was the first guidebook about Asia.24. The passage mainly talks about _.A. a great traveler and his books B. a tour of different countriesC. a great writer and his family D. different kinds of companiesB Do you want to know something about the history of weather? Dont look at the sky. Dont look for old weather reports. Looking at tree rings is more important. Correct weather reports date back only one century, but some trees can provide an exact record of the weather even further back. It is natural that a tree would grow best in a climate with plenty of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight and rainfall would limit the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable to an unfavorable climate can be determined by reading the pattern of rings in a tree trunk. To find the weather of ten years ago, count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings, then it is certain that plenty of sunny and rainy weather occurred. If the rings are closed together, then the climate was bad for the tree.Studying tree rings is important not only for the history of weather, but also for the history of man. In a region of New Mexico you can find only sand-no trees and no people. However, many centuries ago a large population lived there. They left suddenly. Why?A scientist studied patterns of dead tree rings which had grown there. He decided that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees. Trees were necessary to make fires and buildings. So, after the people destroyed the trees, they had to move. In this instance studying tree rings uncovers an exciting fact about the history of man.25. It is understood that in a favorable climate _. A. tree rings grow together B. tree rings grow far apart C. trees in New Mexico will grow big and tall D. people can cut down most of the trees in New Mexico26. The scientists are interested in studying tree rings because they can tell _. A. whether in that area the climate was favorable or notB. whether a particular tree was healthy or notC. whether people took good care of the trees or notD. how old the trees were27. By studying the dead tree rings, the scientist discovered _. A .where the people had left. B. what the people used to eat C. how the people left D. why the people had to leave28. The people had to leave the region of New Mexico because _. A. they had cut down all the trees B. there were many trees there C. they had no water D. bad weather stopped the growth of treesCI arrived at the bus station much too early for the London bus, which was not to leave until five to twelve. I pushed through the crowds, looking for somewhere to sit down. Scores of people were standing about, or struggling along with their bags and the cases to find the right lines. There was a party of school girls. I could see teachers trying to keep them in order. But there was nowhere for me to sit. I stepped into the station buffet. I looked up at the clock there. It was only twenty to twelve. I found a seat opposite a large mirror on the wall. Just then a friend of mine called Jim came in and sat with me. What time is your bus? asked Jim. Oh, theres a plenty of time yet, I answered. Oh, Ill get some drinks then, said Jim. We talked while drinking. Then I looked at the clock again. Good heavens! Its going backward! I cried. A moment ago it was twenty to twelve and now its half past eleven.You are looking at the clock in the mirror, said Jim. I could kick myself for being so stupid. I had not realized that the marks for one and eleven on the face of the clock were the same. The next bus was not to leave for another hour. I have never liked mirror since then.29The London bus left _.A. at five to twelve B. before five to twelve C. after five to twelve D. until five to twelve30The writer went to the station buffet because _.A. he was thirstyB. he saw the station buffet was not so crowdedC. it was still early for his bus and he couldnt find a place to sit at the bus stationD. he had changed his mind; he wouldnt go to London31The writer sat _.A. behind a mirror B. facing a mirrorC. under a mirror D. near a mirror32What time was it when the writer looked at the clock again? It was _.A. half past eleven B. one thirtyC. twelve twenty D. twelve thirtyDFebruary has long been a month of romance. With the sweet smell of roses in the air, romantic films hit cinemas and love stories fill newspapers and magazines. On the 14th day, it is a custom for a boy to take his girlfriend out to dinner, buy her flowers and chocolates, write poems, sing to her or even spell out her name with rose petals! This is what you see on Valentines Day, a day named after Valentine who was a priest in the third century Rome. When the emperor (皇帝) decided that single men could become better soldiers than those with wives, he didnt allow marriage. But Valentine continued to perform marriage ceremonies for young lovers in secret. When his actions were discovered, the emperor sentenced him to death. While in prison, it is said that Valentine fell in love with the daughter of his prison guard. Before his death, he wrote her a letter, which he signed “From your Valentine”, an expression that is still in use today. Valentine died for what he believed in and so he was made a Saint (圣徒), as well as becoming one of historys most romantic characters. Nowadays, Valentines Day is also popular among Chinese young people. Some students are planning to make Valentines cards for parents, teachers and friends. Others want to hold parties at which they will exchange small gifts and eat heart-shaped cakes. The idea is to have fun and encourage people to share in the spirit of St. Valentine.33. Why did the emperor in Rome not allow marriage in his country? A. Because there were few women in his country at that time. B. Because he thought men without wives could be better soldiers. C.

Valentines Day is also popular in China now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。The Art of ConversingIn a world of 6.5 billion opinionated, arguments are sure to happen. 36 But arguments can often lead to positive change- if you argue correctly.Argue well37 In a healthy argument, ones own goal should be to make the problems clear, to communicate the upset behind the problems, and to really move toward a solution. The minimum goal should be to preserve（维护）the relationship well enough to keep communication alive.What not to do Nothing kills a healthy argument like a personal attack, and personal attacks are a big no-no if you want an argument to end positively. For example, while I was making a public speech, someone interrupted and then correct me. 38 I completely lost my temper（脾气）, attacking that person directly and personally. Clearly I shouldnt have done that.Dont be afraid of the heatIts true that personal problems must be left at the door. 39 Conflict（冲突）is acceptable in an argument as long as you stick to the subject. Attacking the other person is not useful. That kind of argument closes down the willingness on both sides to keep talking. 40 If you do find yourself in the thick of one, listening with an open mind can bring about a quick end to the argument and perhaps a positive solution.A. I later ended up in an argument.B. Many people see arguments as a bad part of life.C. Learning how to voice a different opinion works.D. Unpleasant arguments are just around the corner.E. But that doesnt mean arguments wont get heated.F. There certainly is such a thing as a “healthy argument”.G. By actively listening, many arguments can be avoided.第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节:完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Onestormynightmanyyearsago,anelderlymanandhiswifeenteredasmallhotelinPhiladelphia.Tryingtogetoutofthe41_,thecouplewenttothefrontdeskhopingto42forthenight. “Couldyou43giveusaroomhere?”thehusbandasked.
