In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didnt have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed where he was. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didnt, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldnt lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he couldhe huddled(蜷缩) in his cave and slept.The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldnt find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls survival show Man vs. Wild. Thats where he learned the tips that saved his life, In each episode(一期节目)of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.When Grylls heard about Nicholas amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.21.

When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing(内化) your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives, but they dont let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they dont blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual (精神的)growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities, yet their experience of life is quite different. Victims are trapped in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause othersand even themselvesto feel like victims, too. Creators choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives.In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the sadness, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life.In every moment and every situation, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.32. What does the word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?A. Opportunities and problems B. People and things around you. C. Creators and their choices. D. Victims and their sufferings.33. According to Paragraph 2, creators _.A. handle ups and downs of life wisely B. possess the ability to predict future lifeC. seem willing to experience failures in life D. have potential to create something new34. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. Creators and victims face quite different things in life.B. Victims can influence more people than creatorsC. Creators and victims are masters of their lives.D. Compared with victims, creators are more emotional.35. What is the authors purpose in writing this passage?A. To define victims and creators. B. To evaluate victims against creators.C. To suggest the transformation from victims to creators.D. To explain the relationship between victims and creators.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处得最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” Lao TzuIf you are in a city where everyone rushes, realize that you dont have to be like everyone else. You can be different. You can walk instead of driving in rush hour traffic. You can be on your iPhone or Blackberry less, and disconnected sometimes. Your environment doesnt control your life you do. Im not going to tell you how to give you a step-by-step guide to moving slower. 36 1. Do less.Cut back on your projects, on your task list, on how much you try to do each day. Focus not on quantity but on quality. 37 Save smaller, routine tasks for later in the day, but give yourself time to focus.2. Have fewer meetings. 38 And they eat into your day, forcing you to squeeze the things you really need to do into small windows, and making you rush.3. 39 When you do the important things with focus, without rush, there will be things that get pushed back, and that dont get done. And you need to ask yourself: how necessary are these things? What would happen if I stopped doing them?4. Practice mindfulness.Simply learn to live in the present, rather than things so much about future or the past. When you eat, fully appreciate your food. When you are with someone, be with them fully. When you are walking, appreciate your surroundings, no matter where you are.Try these things out. Life is better when unrushed. 40 A. Remember the quote: if nature can get everything done without rushing, so can you.B. Pick 2-3 important things or even just one important thing and work on those first.C. The world likely wont end if you dont pass one of the examinations.D. Meetings are usually a “big waste of time”.E.

Give yourself more time to get ready and get there.第三部分：语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从4160各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Life has been sort of tough lately for Shannon Baker and her little family.
