（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）aone morning more than thirty years ago, i entered the track kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the humblest(卑微的)to the most powerful came for breakfast. i noticed am empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat disheveled. he was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. i asked if i might join him. he agreed quietly and i sat down to have my breakfast.we cautiously began a conversion and spoke about a wide range of things. we never introduced ourselves. i was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. so as i rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, i asked,“my i get you something?”“a coffee would be nice.”then i bought him a cup of coffee, we talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee, finally, i rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. at the door i met one of my friends. he asked,“how did you get to know mr. galbreath?”“who?”“the man you were sitting with. he is chairman of the board of churchill downs.”i could hardly believe it. i was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the worlds richest and most powerful men!my few minutes with mr. galbreath changed my life. now i try to treat everyone with respect, no matter who i think they are.56. what does the underlined word “disheveled” mean?a. unfriendly. b. untidy. c. gentle. d. kind.57. the author bought coffee for the old man because a. he thought the old man was poor b. he wanted to start a conversationc. he intended to show his politeness d. he would like to thank the old man58. how did the author probably feel after he talked with his friend?a. proud. b. pitiful. c. surprised. d. regretful59. what is the message mainly expressed in the story?a. we should learn to be generous.b. it is honorable to help those in need.c. people in high positions are not like what we expect.d. we should avoid judging people by their appearances.bit is hardly surprising that clothing manufacturers （生产商）follow certain uniform standards for various features（特征）of clothes. what seems strange, however, is that the standard adopted for women is the opposite of the one for men. take a look at the way your clothes button. mens clothes tend to button from the right, and womens from the left. considering most of the worlds population-men and women are right-handed, the mens standard would appear to make more sense for women. so why do womens clothes button from the left?history really seems to matter here. button first appeared only on the clothes of the rich in the 17th century, when rich women were dressed by servants. for the mostly right-handed servants, having womens shirts button from the left would be easier. on the other hand, having mens shirts button form the right made sense, too. most men dressed themselves, and a sword drawn from the left with the right hand would be less likely to get caught in the shirt.today women are seldom dressed by servants, but buttoning from the left is still the standard for them. is it interesting? actually, a standard, once set, resists change. at a time when all womens shirts buttoned from the left, it would have been risky for any single manufacture to offer womens shirts that buttoned the right. after all, women had grown so used to shirts which buttoned from the left and would have to develop new habits and skills to switch. besides from the right, since anyone who noticed that would believe they were wearing mens shirts.60. what is surprising about the standard of the clothing industry?a. it has been followed by the industry for over 400 years.b. it is different for mens clothing and womens.c. it works better with men than with women.d. it fails to consider right-handed people.61. what do we know about the rich men in the 17th century?a. they tended to wear clothes without buttons.b. they were interested in the historical matters.c. they were mostly dressed by servants.d. they drew their swords from the left.62. womens clothes still button from the left today because . a. adopting mens style is improper for women b. manufacturers should follow standards c. modern women dress themselvesd. customs are hard to change63. the passage is mainly developed by .a. analyzing cause b. making comparisons c. examining differences d. following the time ordercwinners clubyou choose to be a winner！the winners club is a bank account specially designed for teenagers. it has been made to help you better manage your money. the winners club is a

be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on earth? these are questions that, understandably, are very often asked.perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup(基因构成) as human beings. what drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? the wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible.nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified and prepared for. without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger. with knowledge, we can lessen its effects.exploration also allows minerals and other potential (潜在的) resources to be found. even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. resources may be more than physical possessions. knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. the techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. we have already benefited from other spin-offs including improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems. even non-stick pans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products (副产品) of technological developments in the space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist.while many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. while space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. the danger exists, but knowledge can help human being to survive. without the ability to reach out across space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist.while earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets. it is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future.68. why does the author mention the questions in paragraph1?a. to express his doubts. b. to compare different ideas.c. to introduce points for discussion. d. to describe the conditions on earth.69. what is the reason for exploring space based on paragraph2?a. humans are nature-born to do so.b. humans have the tendency to fight.c. humans may find new sources of food.d. humans dont like to stay in the same place.70. what makes it possible for humans to live on other planets?a. our genetic makeup.b. resources on the earth.c. the adaptive ability of humans. d. by-products in space exploration.第二节

72 so we must make some plans before study. and we should certainly carry out these plans in our study. 73 our notes are much thinner than the books so that we can learn them by heart easily and can often review and read them. we may also record our notes on tapes so as to listen to them easily.reading a newspaper is the best thing to improve your english. 74 it will help you keep in touch with a lot of subjects in english. 75 learn by heart the whole sentences and the phrases that contain the new words so that we may know how to use the words.if time permits (允许), we may read a mini chinese-english dictionary carefully from cover to cover, which may help us widen our sight and master (掌握) knowledge in all way
