I seek friends whose qualities illuminate (照亮) me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share.When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors.We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Lets start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changed into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair (失望) and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despair disappeared and then we parted. We_gave_London_to_each_other.For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the others dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell .” We have never met.It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist (心理学家), who will only fill up the healing (愈合的) silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.语篇解读：本文讲述了作者所喜爱的朋友类型，以及她在不同时期与不同的朋友共同度过的美好时光，表达了她对与朋友共度的时光的珍视。21In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to_.Abecome serious about her studyBgo to her friends house regularlyClearn from her classmates at schoolDshare poems and stories with her friend解析：选D细节理解题。第二段说，作者读八年级时有个好朋友，她们在学校都少言寡语，回家后就在一起写诗和故事，然后大声朗读。后来毕业了，她们都成了社会型的人，她们的小说与故事就不写了。22In Paragraph 3, “We gave London to each other” probably means “_”Aour exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of usBwe were unwilling to tear ourselves away from LondonCour unpleasant feelings about London disappearedDwe parted with each other in London解析：选A句意猜测题。从该段的叙述看，作者和她的朋友当时在伦敦，都很绝望，但他们互相勉励，一起寻找美好的事物，直到他们绝望的感觉都消失了，“我们把伦敦给了对方”，显然这里表示“我们”在伦敦的这段时间互相关心与勉励，一起寻找生活的美丽，因此本题选A。23According to Paragraph 4, the author and her friend _.Acall each other regularlyBhave similar personalitiesCenjoy writing to each otherDdream of meeting each other解析：选C推理判断题。从该段内容可知，我们写长长的信给对方，出现在对方的梦里，从来未曾见过面，因此C项正确。A项文章未提及；B项不符合文意，文章只是说她们在某些方面相似；D项也不符合文意。24What is the best title for the passage?AUnforgettable ExperiencesBRemarkable ImaginationCLifelong FriendshipDNoble Companions解析：选D主旨大意题。本文介绍作者人生道路上的几个朋友，这些朋友与她一起写诗作文，和她一起探讨人生，尽管有些素未谋面。在心情压抑的时候，她宁可独自一人，她把充满激情的时光保留着，送给最好的朋友；她寻找能照亮她的生活的朋友。从这些内容判断，本题选D，品质高贵的朋友。BHip hop has started a culture since the time it originated. Millions of people around the globe have been influenced by the hip hop culture. Hip hop music and hip hop dance have rewritten the music and dance trends since the olden days. The music industry has seen the appearance of hip hop artists that have gained popularity among youngsters.The hip hop period is divided into two eras the old school hip hop(19701985) and the golden age hip hop(19851993). Hip hop music has originated from the AfricanAmerican and the West African music. In hip hop music, the singers individually make a sound with their voice over the beats. The old school hip hop artists always focused on introducing themselves and even the guests over the music. Later, this introduction became more varied and the method was more rhythmic with rhyming lyrics (歌词) from the AfricanAmerican culture. There were various messages that were included in the hip hop music such as stories on crime, drugs and violence.One also saw the appearance of break dance, which is a street dance style that has also developed gradually with time. This formed the base for the hip hop style of dancing as well. The hip hop dance gained popularity as it offered a platform to express ones creativity. Hip hop gave one a chance to dance freely without sticking to the rules that are required in ballroom and jazz style of dancing. Along with the dance, the hip hop style of dressing also gained popularity along the way. The hip hop look was never complete without big jeans, loose Tshirts and heavy jewelry.We can see how the hip hop culture has developed since the olden days. Many argue that the present style of hip hop may not always reflect the pure form. But despite all the disagreements, one cannot argue with the fact that the hip hop is very popular even till today.语篇解读：本文主要介绍了嘻哈文化的发展历史。嘻哈文化包括嘻哈音乐、嘻哈舞蹈以及嘻哈服饰等。自诞生以后，它很快风靡全球，让成千上万的人为之着迷。25It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that _.Athe hip hop period is divided into three partsBhip hop music was based on American cultureChip hop music could have negative influence on the youngstersDthe golden age hip hop singers introduced themselves over the music解析：选C推理判断题。由第二段最后一句可知，嘻哈音乐里包含了各种犯罪、毒品和暴力的信息。由此可推知，嘻哈音乐可能会给年轻人带来负面影响。26Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?AThe main part of hip hop was break dance.BPeople liked the hip hop style of dressing.CHip hop dance was developed from jazz style of dancing.DTight Tshirt is one of the essential parts of the hip hop look.解析：选B细节理解题。由第三段倒数第二句可知，嘻哈服饰也很流行，即人们喜欢嘻哈服饰，故答案选B项。27What formed the base for the hip hop style of dancing?AHip hop music.BBreak dance.CStreet dance.DJazz style of dance.解析：选B细节理解题。由第三段前两句可知，break dance为嘻哈舞蹈的形成奠定了基础。28What does the passage mainly talk about?AThe history of hip hop.BThe style of hip hop.CThe influence of hip hop.DThe popularity of hip hop.解析：选A主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了嘻哈文化的发展历史，包括嘻哈音乐的发展、嘻哈舞蹈的演变以及嘻哈服饰的出现等，故答案为A项。CIts not quite a rat.Nor is it a squirrel, or a mouse. Its definitely a rodent (啮齿目动物), and its also a brandnew family of mammals.The locals of the Southeast Asian country of Laos (老挝) call the creature a khanyou. The kha nyou has long body hair, short legs, and a hairy tail less thick than a squirrels. Theyre vegetarians living in the rocky hills of Laos, and they come out at night, but for more information, youll have to ask the Laotian (老挝人)“It was for sale on a table next to some vegetables. I knew immediately it was something I had never seen before，” said Robert Timmins, a researcher for the Wildlife Conservation Society. Timmins was working in Laos to stop people from selling endangered animals when he spotted the species. Criminals who trade illegally wildlife can make a lot of money, but they also push the animals closer to disappearing from the planet.The khanyou lives in karsts, or rough rocks. Mark Robinson, a scientist with the World Wildlife Foundation, set out with Laotian villagers to find a few more of the rodents for study. They climbed onto a karst, trapped with rice, and caught several.“To find something so unusual in this day and age is just extraordinary，” said Timmins. “For all we know, this could be the last remaining animal family left to be discovered.”Its great to discover an entirely new family of animals. Humans, for instance, belong to the same family as great apes, chimpanzees, and gorillas.So even though khanyous look like rats, theyre really very different. The last time scientists discovered a new family of mammals may be in the 1970s, when they found new bats in Thailand.Timmins seems to have the gift for finding new animals in Laos he discovered a new species of rabbit there in 1999.Scientists call the khanyou Laonastes aenigmamus, which means “mysterious mouse that lives among the stones.” But if thats too hard, Timmins and Robinson suggest you call them“rock rats”语篇解读：这是一篇科普类短文。本文介绍了有关动物种类发现的最新动态一种貌似老鼠，却与老鼠不同的全新的哺乳动物被发现了。29Which of the following is not the name for this new creature?AKarsts.BKhanyous.CRock rats.DLaonastes aenigmamus.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第四段的第一句话“The khanyou lives in karsts, or rough rocks.”可知karsts并不是这种动物的名称。30Which of the following cannot describe the new species of rodent?AThey live among the rocky hills of Laos.BThey live on meat of other animals.CThey look like rats but are of different kind.DThey are a new species.解析：选B细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“Theyre vegetarians living in the rocky hills of Laos .”可知，它们是食草动物。31Which of the following is the last discovery of new species of mammal except the rodent?AA new kind of bats.BGreat apes.CA new kind of squirrel.DA new kind of rabbit.解析：选A细节理解题。根据倒数第三段最后一句可得到答案。32It implies in the passage that_.Afinding a new animal family in Southeast Asia is easyBfinding a new animal family in modern time is extremely rareCin Southeast Asia new species of animals are often discoveredDanimals that look like the same are of the same family解析：选B推理判断题。根据第五段可知，在现代，由于某些原因(如环境污染、人类捕杀等)，发现一种新的动物种类是很罕见的。DI still remember my hands and my fingers still remember what used to lie in store for us on our return to school from the holidays.The trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves.“Get that all swept up！” the headmaster would tell us.“I want the whole place cleaned up, at once！” There was enough work there, to last over a week.Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands, our fingers, our nails.“Now see that its done properly, and be quick about it，” the headmaster would say to the older pupils, “or youll have to answer for it！”So at an order from the older boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops.If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected, the big boys
