I was the youngest son, with four brothers and four sisters. By the late 1960s, most of us were married and had families of our own. I worked full time and also had a part-time job on a tree farm. One day, while I was visiting my parents in late summer or early fall, Dad mentioned hed always wanted a maple tree for the yard. Mom agreed that it was pretty. Since it was hard for my parents to go shopping, I figured this was a great opportunity to get them something theyd appreciate. I also thought if they wanted one tree, two would be even better. I checked the price at work and decided it was a bit more than I could afford but all of my brothers and sisters agreed to chip in (凑钱). In northern Ohio, you dont plant maple trees at Christmas, so we decided to surprise Mom and Dad with a special Christmas in October before the ground froze. Then my sisters went into action, planning a big holiday turkey dinner.On the chosen Sunday, we all met at my house and loaded the trees in a pickup truck. I dressed up as Santa Claus. Then off we went, nine cars loaded with people and food. When we arrived at my parents house, Dad came out of the back door, thinking something was wrong. He and Mom were amazed when we told them why we were there.When Christmas rolled around, of course, we couldnt go to our parents house empty handed, so Mom and Dad got double presents that year. Almost half a century later, I still drive by the old farmhouse and smile when I see those big, handsome trees and remember giving a special gift to special people on Christmas in October.21.

Planting Maple Trees for Parents BAn Interview of Michelle BlinksWhat were the best things about Los Angeles?One of my favorite things about Los Angeles is the weather. I hate the cold and it never really gets that cold there. Plus, most of the time its usually sunny. I also loved going to the beach during the summer. Theres so much to do at the beach, but my favorite thing was going with my friends and having a picnic on the sand.Where were the worst things about being there? I definitely disliked that you had to drive everywhere to get around because the city is so spread out. Los Angeles has a ton of traffic and sometimes it takes a long time to get somewhere close by just because the streets are crowed with traffic. Also, a lot of people complain about the pollution.Was it easy to meet people?I think people there are pretty nice in general, but normally you only meet people through school or through work. I went to school there so thats how I met most of my friends. I guess you could also try meeting people by going out to clubs or bars.What did you usually do there?If I was with my friends, wed go out to dinner, see a movie, or sometimes go out to a club. Theres always something to see or do in Los Angeles whether its a museum exhibit or a concert, so we were rarely bored.25. What is the weather like in Los Angeles? A. Very cold.B. Hot all the time.C.

But in Asian countries like China, Japan and South Korea, many people wont post pictures on social media without editing their faces with photo editing apps such as Meitu Xiuxiu.According to The Telegraph newspaper, these hugely successful, homegrown photo editing apps specially focus on two clear psychologies (心理) of Asian users, and in particular, women: the eagerness to post selfies and the desire to look whiter than they really are. As the US style website Mic put it, “What actually makes a good selfie comes from what we consider beautiful, and that is greatly different by culture.”Photo editing apps play to Asian womens dreams of achieving a more “Westernized” look that comes from having a more oval-shaped (瓜子形的) face, whiter skin and bigger eyes.With the slide of a finger, the apps let them change their faces, just like they are having plastic surgery (整容).Without a doubt, editing facial characteristics with an app has become something that people do for fun, and it isnt harmful in most cases. But it is important to know that “the gap between reality and our online lives is widening as we sit on our phones playing plastic surgeon”, The Telegraph noted.28. The underlined word “selfie” in Paragraph 2 is a kind of _. A. a smartphone app B. a new websiteC. a self-taken pictureD. a web post 29. What makes photo editing apps successful? A. Meeting the users need inside their hearts. B. Asking people to post their photos online. C. Asians wishing to look whiter than westerners. D. Asians need to look better than they really are.30. What do Asian women wish to look like? A. A round and white face with big eyes.B. An oval-shaped face with white skin. C. An oval-shaped face with bright eyes.D. A round and white face with beautiful teeth.31. What can be concluded from the last paragraph? A. People can make plastic surgery using smartphones. B. Using editing apps does no harm to people. C. Editing apps may have a bad effect on real life.D. Editing apps has become a necessary tool.DGrowing up in one of the poorest communities on the south side of Atlanta, US, not many people expected much of me, so I had to expect something of myself.On my 13th birthday, I bought a poster of Harvard to hang in my room. Being at Harvard became what I dreamt about: I saw myself attending class in Sanders Theater, studying in Widener Library and eating in Annenberg Hall. Id begin my day by asking myself these two questions: “What do I want in my life?” and, “Are the things I am doing today going to get me closer to that life?” Reminding myself of my goal each day made it easy to say no to the same choices I saw other teenagers making, because those paths wouldnt have gotten me closer to my goal. I found that being poor could not take away my power to decide what I choose to do with my day. Asking myself those questions gave me the energy to study just one more hour on my SATs when my friends were asleep; and it gave me the determination to send just one more scholarship application when 180 others had already turned me down. Every day I could feel myself getting closer and closer to my goal as my writing got better, my SAT score increased, and my scholarship checks started coming in. March 31st, 2011, an email arrived from Harvard. The first word was “Congratulations!” A month later, Harvard invited me to visit the campus where for the first time I got to see inside Sanders Theater, tour Widener Library and eat dinner in Annenberg Hall. Who you are today is the result of the decisions you made yesterday, and who you will be tomorrow will be the result of the choices you make today. Who do you want to be tomorrow? 32. What does Paragraph 1 infer? A. The city of Atlanta is not a good place to live in. B. Many people believe that the writer will succeed. C. The author grew up in the north side of Atlanta. D. Living in a poor area didnt stop her dreaming.33. Which was the writers goal of working hard? A. Being admitted to Harvard.B. Attending class in Sanders Theater. C. Studying in Widener Library.D. Eating dinner in Annenberg Hall.34. Which didnt help the writer stick to her goal? A. Asking herself two questions every day.B. Touring in the Harvard campus. C. Reminding herself of her dream. D. Refusing to do what she shouldnt do. 35. What can we learn from the writers experience? A. Success starts with believing in yourself. B. Youll never regret doing the right thing. C. Who you are begins with what you do.D. Youre responsible for your own actions. 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。One morning last week I looked out of my study window and saw that it was a fine day. No, it was a wonderful day: the sun shone down from a sky without even a single cloud.But later that day, hard at work at my desk, I heard a loud noise on the roof. Turning to the window, I saw that the sky was now the color of charcoal (木炭). Two minutes later the rain poured, making rivers of water. 36 Its extremely variable (易变的). Go ahead with your picnic in the local park by all means, but dont suppose that because the sun is shining now, it will be when you open your pack of sandwiches. 37 The weather in Britain is not always bad. 38 This is one of the biggest reasons why the British talk so often about the weather.
