did you see the garden that took the master gardener ten years to create?” the boy was embarrassed, and replied that he had observed nothing. his only concern had been not to spill the oil.“then go back and observe the wonders of my world,” said the wise man. the boy picked up the spoon and returned to his exploration of the palace. this time he observed all of the works of art on the ceilings and the walls. when he returned, he described in detail everything he had seen. “but where are the drops of oil?” asked the wise man. looking down at the spoon he held, the boy saw that the oil was gone.“well, there is only one piece of advice i can give you,” said the wise man. “the secret of happiness is to see all the wonders of the world, and never to forget the drops of oil on the spoon.”21. when the boy arrived at the castle, he .a. received a warm welcome from the wise manb. had already missed his chance to talk to the wise manc. was shown around the palace by the local peopled. didnt expect to see so many people around22. the wise man gave the boy two tasks in order to .a. show him how to observe the wonders in the worldb. teach him the secret of happinessc. make him learn from his mistakesd. let the boy enjoy his palace and garden23. we can infer from the article that “the drops of the oil on the spoon” probably refer to .a. the beauty of ones natureb. the fortune a person possessesc. the responsibilities one has to take ond. the great opportunities in life24. what would be the best title for the article?a. lesson about happinessb. the secret of happinessc. learning about happinessd. searching for happinessbour kids are amazingespecially compared with everybody elses (who seem to cry all the time). how do you show your love for your kids this holiday season?

a1 and 3b2 and 4c1 and 2d3 and 427this passage is written for _. aparentsbchildrencthe teachers dthe bosses cto err is human. to blame the other guy is even more human. common sense is not all that common. why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse? these three popular misquotes (戏谑的引语) are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature. to err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people dont want to accept the responsibility for the problem. perhaps it is the natural thing to do. the original quote about human nature went like this: to err is human, to forgive, divine (神圣的). this saying mirrors a deal people should be forgiving of others mistakes. instead, we tend to do the opposite-find someone else to pass the blame on to. however, taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity. common sense is what we call clear thought. having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan. common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine. common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything. people say that in a large company, “the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing.” and what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? one of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people get the idea that its okay not to be totally honest all the time. there is a corollary (直接推论) to that: if good excuse is “good” even if it isnt honest, then where is the place of the truth?28. according to the passage, which of the following seems the most human?a. to search for truth. b. to achieve ones ideal. c. to make fun of others mistakes. d. to criticize others for ones own error. 29. according to the author, what is a sign of a mans maturity?a. doing things his own way. b. bearing responsibility for his mistakes.c. making as few mistakes as possible. d. thinking seriously about his wrongdoing. 30. what is the authors opinion about a good excuse?a. making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy. b. inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas. c. a good excuse is as rewarding as honesty. d. bitter truth is better than a good excuse. 31. what would be the best title for his passage?a. mirror of human nature b. to blame or to forgive c. a mark of maturity d. truth or excusedpeople from east asia tend to have more difficulty than those from europe in distinguishing facial expressions-and a new report published online in current biology explains why.rachael jack, university of glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly (均匀的) across a face as westerners do, easterners fix their attention on the eyes. “we show that easterners and westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,” jack said. “westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽略) the mouth.”according to jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. as a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.the researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 western caucasian and 13 east asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. they compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.it turned out that easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did westerners. “the cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions,” jack said. “our data suggest that whereas westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.”in short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. from here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, easterners and westerners will find themselves lost in translation.32. the discovery shows that westerners _. a. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth b. consider facial expressions universally reliable c. observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways d. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions33. what were the people asked to do in the study?a. to make a face at each other.b. to get their faces impressive.c. to classify some face pictures.d. to observe the researchers faces.34. what does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 6 refer to?a. the participants in the study.b. the researchers of the study.c. the errors made during the study.d. the data collected from the study.35. what can be the best title for the passage? a. the eye as the window to the soul.b. cultural differences in reading emotions.c. effective methods to develop social skills.d. how to increase cross-cultural understanding.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。every student has tests when they are at school. but have you ever been so worried about the tests that you cant fall asleep at night? have you ever felt sick or had a headache during a test? 36 this worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. you may feel angry, frustrated, scared, or afraid - which can give you a stomachache or a headache. 37 good or normal stress might happen when you are called to answer a question in class or when you have to give a speech. this kind of stress can help you to get things better done. 38 but bad stress can happen if the stressful feelings keep going over a long time. you may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is ill, if you are having problems at school, or if you are going through anything else that makes you upset every day. 39 40 that means making good decision about how to spend your time. if you are only dealing with school stuff and have no time to play, you can get stressed. make sure you keep your self in mind: sleep, exercise, leisure and food. if you take care of yourself and get enough sleep and food, and if you exercise and leave time for fun stuff, you will probably be less stressed out!a. however, there are two different kinds of stress. b. can you tell a kind of stress from another one? c. the best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced life. d. that kind of stress isnt going to help you, and it can actually make you sick. e. since bad stress is harmful for us, youd better try to change it into good stress.f. if so, then you know what stress is. stress is what you feel when you are worried or uncomfortable about something.g. for example, you may do a better job on your test if the stress pushes you to prepare well before the test. 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、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。 after graduation from college, i started to sell. soon i discovered that the41expression i had beenwearing since childhood meant sure42. i knew it wasnt going to be easy to43that expression on myface left by so many years of hardship. it44a complete change in my view on life. here is the45itried. each morning during a fifteen-minute bath, i46to cultivate (培养) a big, happy smile. i found out,47, that it couldnt be a forced smile48just for the purpose of putting dollars in my49. it had to bean honest-to-goodness smile from down deep50, an outward expression of happiness from within!lets see51starting off with a good fifteen-minute workout of the smile muscles52me during theday. before entering an office i53think of the many things i had to be54for, work up a big smile andthen enter. seldom did it fail to get the same smile55from the person i met. i also found that it56peoplewhen i passed them on the street to give them a57smile. give every living soul you meet the best smile you have58smiled in your life, and see how much betteryou59and look. its one of the best ways i know to60worrying, and start living. when i began doing this, i found i became more welcome everywhere.41. a. happy42. a. success43. a. wear44. a. made up45. a. method46. a. determined47. a. therefore48. a. introduced49. a. opinion50. a. outside51. a. when52. a. helped53. a. could54. a. ready55. a. in general56. a. greeted57. a. cheerful58. a. never59. a. prove60. a. keepb. worriedb. friendshipb. showb. brought inb. exampleb. hurriedb. howeverb. developedb. honorb. upwardb. howb. upsetb. mightb. eag
