li leidear li lei, many famous people were not so good when they were young. edison, a famous scientist, did poorly in his studies when he was a young boy. but, as an adult, he made many inventions that helped a lot of people. when i was at young age, i didnt do well at school. i just kept working hard, and at last, i succeed. you should take it easy and try your best. tomorrow is another day. i believe you can do better. mr. wise 51. li lei feels worried because _.a. he doesnt like going to school b. he is not as good as most of his classmatesc. his father doesnt like him d. he doesnt want to work hard52.li lei writes this letter to _.a. ask for some help b. find a pen palc. tell his father his problem d. let all his classmates know it53.in mr. wises letter, “tomorrow is another day” means “_”.a. tomorrow is the weekend b. one can get good friends tomorrowc. tomorrow is the same as today d. there are a lot of hopes in our livesb a punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the correct time and is never late for anything. an unpunctual man never does what he has to do at the right time. he is always in a hurry and in the end loses both time and his good name. a lost thing may be found again, but lost time can never be got back. time is more useful than material things. in fact, time is life itself. an unpunctual man is always wasting his most important things as well as others. an unpunctual person is always saying unhappily that he finds no time to answer letters or return calls. but the man who really has much to do is very careful of his time. he knows that he can not finish all his work unless he carefully does every piece of work.being unpunctual is the sign of disrespect (不尊重) towards others. if a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the time when he should be there, he keeps all the other guests (客人)waiting for him. usually this will be thought as a great disrespect to the host and all the other guests.not like a punctual person, an unpunctual one cant do his duty wonderfully, whether it is public or personal. imagine how it would be if those who should do important tasks failed to be on time. a man who is known to be often unpunctual is never believed by his friends.54. the chinese meaning of the word punctual in this passage is probably “_”.a.听话的 b.守时的 c.守纪律的 d.能干的55. which of the following is true according to the passage? a. an unpunctual person often has more time. b. an unpunctual person has more work to do. c. a punctual person often has a busy life. d. a punctual person often does his work wonderfully.56. when you are invited to dinner, youd better arrive there_. a. in a hurry b. after the host c. at the decided time d. before other guests57. from the passage, we learn that an unpunctual man usually _ in the end. a. saves time for others b. leaves his family and friends c. gets his chances and knowledge d. loses his time and good namecsam and joe were astronauts. there was once a very dangerous trip and the more experienced(有经验的) astronauts knew there was only a small chance of coming back alive. sam and joe, however, thought it would be exciting though a little dangerous. “were the best men for the job,” they said to the boss. “there may be problems, but we can find the answers.” “theyre the last people id trust(信任),” thought the boss. “but all the other astronauts have refused(拒绝) to go.” once they were in space, joe had to go outside to make some repairs(维修). when the repairs were done, he tried to get back inside the spaceship. but the door was locked. he knocked but there was no answer. he knocked again, louder this time, and again no answer came. then he hit the door as hard as he could and finally a voice said, “whos there?” “its me! who else could it be?” shouted joe. sam let him in all right but you can imagine that joe never asked to go on a trip with sam again!58. most of the astronauts dont want to go on the trip because _.a. there was little chance to go b. they werent experienced enough c. they thought it was too dangerous d. it wasnt exciting enough59. why were sam and joe chosen? a. the boss wanted them to get more experience. b. the boss trusted them more than anyone else.c. they were the best people who could go. d. they were the only men who wanted to go.60. the writer tells this story to _.a. show the easy side of the astronauts life b. show the funny side of astronauts lifec. make people laugh at all the astronauts d. make people think61. which of the following is not true?a. life in space is kind of dangerous. b. sam and joe were the best astronauts in their bosss eyes.c. joe finally got into the spaceship. d. joe would never go to space with sam again.d“how are you?” is a nice question .its a friendly way that people in the u.s.a greet each other. but “how are you?” is also a very unusual question. its a question that often doesnt need an answer. the person who asks “how are you?” hopes to hear the answer “fine”, even if the persons friend isnt fine. the reason is that “how are you?” isnt really a question and “fine ”isnt really an answer. they are simply other ways of saying “hello” or “hi”.sometimes ,people also dont say exactly what they mean. for example, when someone asks “do you agree?” ,the other person might think, “no, i disagree. i think youre wrong.”but it isnt very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “im not sure.” its a nicer way to say that you dont agree with someone.people also dont say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. for example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say “ive to go now. ”often, the person who wants to hang up gives and excuse:“ someones at the door.”“something is burning on the stove.” the excuses might be real, or not. perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesnt want to talk any more, but it isnt polite to say that. the excuse is more polite ,and it doesnt hurt the other person.whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, of finishing a talk, people dont say exactly that they are thinking. its an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and its part of the game of language.62.when a person disagree with someone, it is polite to say“_”. a.you are wrong. i disagree. b. im not sure. c. im sure i disagree. d. no, i disagree.63.a polite way to finish talk is to say“_”.a. you have to go now. b.i want to hang up. c.i have to go now. d.i dont want to talk any more.64.when a person says “ive to go now .someones at the door.”, the person may be _.a .giving an excuse b. hurting someones feeling c .ill d. asking you a question65. the rule of the game of language is probably“_”.a. always say what you mean b. dont disagree with people.c. never say exactly what youre thinking. d. be polite.第卷(共50分).任务型阅读。（每小题2分，共6分）阅读下文并回答问题。mr. smith had two sons .one is seven years old, and the other is five. one morning during the holidays, when he was cleaning the car, his younger son came and asked him for some money for sweets.“sweets are bad for your teeth,” mr. smith said. “take these two oranges instead ,and give one to your elder(年长的)brother,” one of the oranges is quite a lot bigger than the other one ,and as the small boy liked oranges very much, he kept that one for himself, and gave his brother the smaller one.when the other boy saw that his brother had a much larger orange than his own ,he said to him, “its selfish(自私的)to take the bigger one for yourself. if father had given me the oranges, id have given you the bigger one.”“i know you would,” answered his brother.” thats why i took it.”66. what did his younger son ask for?
