youre wrong. he sees a lot. more than you or i do,” the clerk said. “his wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”i learned something about patience, courage and love that day. i saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without sight and the courage of a husband who would not allow blindness to change his life. and i saw the love shared by two people as i watched this couple walk away.24. the young couple were at an art museum _.a. to show their love b. to appreciate artc. to discuss paintings d. to describe paintings25. how does the writer feel about the wife in the first three paragraphs?a. the writer admires her patience.b. the writer hates her patience.c. the writer enjoys hearing her constant burst of words.d. the writer hates hearing her constant burst of words.26. according to the last paragraph, what did the writer see that day?a. the young mans patience, courage and love for the wife.b. the wifes patience, courage and love for the young man.c. the wifes patience, the young mans courage and their love for each other.d. the young mans patience, the wifes courage and their love for each other.ca popular saying goes, “sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” however, thats not really true. words have the power to build us up or tear us down. it doesnt matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves - the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.we all talk to ourselves sometimes. were usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. in fact, we really shouldnt be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.this “self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. so in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. we should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. the next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “good job!”often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. but we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others. for example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. and the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. or harsh（刻薄的）and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.words possess power because of their lasting effect. many of us regret something we once said. and we remember unkind words said to us! before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: is it loving? is it needed? if what we want to say doesnt pass this test, then its better left unsaid.words possess power: both positive and negative. those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. we can offer hope, build self-esteem（自尊）and motivate others to do their best. negative words destroy all those things. will we use our words to hurt or to heal? the choice is ours.27. the main idea of the first paragraph is that _.a. not sticks and stones but words will hurt us b. inspiring words give us confidencec. negative words may let us down d. words have a lasting effect on us28. there is no sense for us to feel embarrassed when we talk to ourselves because _a. almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselvesb. we can benefit from talking to ourselvesc. talking to ourselves always gives us couraged. it does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone29. the underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely _a. praise ourselvesb. remind ourselvesc. make ourselves relaxedd. give ourselves happiness30. the author would probably hold the view that _a. encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offersb. negative words may stimulate us to make more progressc. people tend to remember friendly wordsd. it is better to think twice before talking to others第二节：七选五（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。选项中有多项为多余选项。going camping is one of the best ways to get in touch with nature and enjoy the beautiful outdoors. however, thorough plans before a camping trip may be boring. just follow these simple camping suggestions to make your trip safe and rewarding.selecting a suitable tent_31_when determining the size of your tent, you should take into account the number of campers as well as the camping equipment(设备) necessary for your trip. there should be enough room in the tent for the camping equipment._32_importance of foodwhile camping, you will need enough food to give you enough energy for your outdoor activities. _33_you should use a two-burner stove to do all your cooking. insist on simple cooking during your trip to reduce cooking time.enough sleep.all campers should have enough sleep during the night. nights are generally cooler than the days so you need to have enough warm clothes to feel comfortable to sleep during the night. _34_extra air mattresses(气垫) may be included in your camping equipment to make your bed more comfortable._35_keep these camping suggestions in mind and make sure you are fully prepared to enjoy your camping trip.a. when buying a sleeping bag, check that you feel comfortable in it.b. the best camping trips belong to those people who prepare the best.c. the comfort level in a tent determines the success of a camping trip.d. thus you must have an efficient arrangement for your food preparation.e. if you have a habit to eat in bed, you might train yourself not to do it during camping.f. the size is the most important thing you should carefully consider when choosing a tent.g. it will destroy the mood of the entire camping trip if you dont have enough money.第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完型填空（共20个小题；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，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。the wagon train (马车队) had been traveling for weeks now. emily was getting tired tired of not having a comfortable bed to sleep in or a 36 home. she was also 37 because there was never anything fun for a girl of her age to do. mama promised it wouldnt be too much longer, 38 the trip seemed to take forever.then, one day, a rabbit caught emilys eye. maybe she could 39 it, and then shed have a pet! emily ran after the rabbit into the woods behind the wagons, but it 40 . emily looked for it, and at last she 41 . she turned to go back, but 42 looked familiar (熟悉的). she started in one direction, but it was the wrong 43 . emily tried another direction, but soon found that that was 44 , too.emily was 45 . what if she couldnt 46 the wagons?
