I was having no problem understanding and municating with any of them with one big exception: my boss is from England and English, spoken by British people, will always be my biggest challenge.In 1998, I moved to the Bahamas. And I realized I was lost when it came to small talk. Thank God, it did not take me long to have personal conversations.

Its kind of funny when you experience that, especially since I lived most of my life in Germany.Three years ago I met my husband, who is from Liverpool. The first couple of months I had headaches just from concentrating so hard on what he was saying. One part of our conversations in the beginning of our relationship became famous in our circle of friends. Let me share it with you: here we are, sitting on the sofa, having a nice conversation and during that conversation he asked me: “Honey, how many holes do you have in your ear?” Strange question, I thought but answered anyway.“Three in my left and two in my right.” I answered. I had not even finished my sentence when he broke out in fits of laughter. When he finally caught his breath, he said, “Honey, my question was how many holidays do you have in a year?” and started laughing again.Even though I have lived and worked in an English Speaking country now for over eight years, there are still words I dont know. There are still times when I cant find the right word to express myself.28.

How my husband taught me EnglishDIn many countries the standard of living enjoyed by their people has increased rapidly in recent years. Sadly, not everyone in these countries is so fortunate and many people in rich countries are homeless. The reasons for homelessness are various, but poverty（贫穷）is undoubtedly one of the main causes. The homeless people may have bee jobless and then been unable to pay their rent and so no longer have a roof over their heads. Often, the fact that unemployed people get help from the government prevents this from happening, but not always. Some homeless people are mentally ill and have no one to look after them. Some are young people who, for one reason or another, have left home and have nowhere to live. Many of them have had a serious disagreement with their parents and have left home, choosing to go to a city and live on the streets. Sometimes they have taken such action because they have been unable to get on with a step-parent. Many homeless people get into the habit of begging to get enough money to stay alive, but many of the general public refuse to give anything to beggars. Often they are moved on by the police, being accused（指控），whether rightly or wrongly, of forceful begging. There are many who disrespect homeless people. Some cynics（愤世嫉俗的人）declare that homeless people choose to live the life which they lead. But who would willingly choose to live in a shop doorway, under a bridge or in a cardboard box?32.According to the text, what causes some people to be homeless? A. The increased standard of living.

If you believe you dont have the ability to succeed, then you dont. 36 The moment you decide to give up or stop working toward your goals, failure is born. 37 Most people give themselves an out without even realizing it. They are willing to work hard on reaching their goals, but only until the going gets too rough or their energy dies down. Dont do that! 38 Never quit, never admit failure, and never lose heart.Dont believe in a clear finish line for goals. Its a good idea to set a general timeline (时间表), but remember that something will be beyond your control. 39 If you lock yourself into a given timeline, you might make yourself feel like a failure! Instead, get a general idea of when youd like your goal to be pleted. Then take it one day at a time and focus on making progress instead of reaching the finish line in as little time as possible. Be sure that you dont see difficulties as failures. Difficulties mean only one thing: its not time for your goal to be pleted yet. Thats it! It doesnt mean you failed; it doesnt mean youre weak; it doesnt mean youll never achieve your goals. 40 Youve got to keep moving forward and find a way over, around, or through the difficulties. A. Never give up on yourself. B. Failure only exists in your own mind! C. Thats exactly how failure makes us feel. D. It simply means you have not done enough yet. E. You can never say exactly when your goal will be reached. F. Make up your mind to make your goal happen, no matter what! G. Work hard towards your goal, and you will be likely to get good results.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四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 It was a cold evening and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway.
