mules（骡子）or by air. we chose the first. up early, my husband and i and our three children couldnt wait to get started. we decided to walk along a lovely path named bright angel trail. as we set out, i was shocked at how narrow the path was. and i couldnt help noticing that the other tourists werent like us. they had heavy backpacks, water bottles, and hats. but as usual we were dressed. as the sun rose higher, arizonas famous heat seemed to roast (烘烤) us. there was no shade and our legs were aching. we decided to go back, with the girl on my back and the boys far behind. by the time we finally got back, our legs were like jelly.the next day, after wed had a long rest and a good breakfast, we were ready for another view of canyon by air. after our last walk, this would be the easiest thing in the world.we called to each other excitedly as the plane took off and circled around the canyon. but the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed（翻转）the plane around, pretending he was going to hit the ground. i shouted, “stop, take us back!” when we finally arrived back on land, once again our legs were like jelly. we hardly spoke as we drove back.as i said, there are three ways to view the grand canyon. we never tried the mules, but personally id suggest a fourth: buy yourself a good magazine like national geographic. that way, you can see the canyon, without fear or tiredness.21. which of the following is true according to the second paragraph?a. they made a careful preparation before the trip. b. the children were more joyful than their parents.c. bright angel trail was not as lovely as they expected.d. the summer heat prevented them from enjoying the meal.22. the underline expression “our legs were like jelly” probably means _.a. we were weak b. we were unhappy c. we were dissatisfied d. we were disappointed23. which of the following best describes their canyon trip by air?a. it proved to be frightening. b. it was more comfortable.c. it turned out to be exciting. d. it made each of them tired.24. we can infer from the passage that_.a. experiencing the canyon on mules would be the best wayb. one needs to dress less when visiting the grand canyonc. the writer was not serious when she made the suggestiond. the whole family narrowly escaped from the air accidentbwhen former american president bill clinton traveled to south korea to visit president kim young sam, he repeatedly referred to the korean presidents wife as mrs. kim. by mistake, president clintons advisers thought that koreans have the same naming customs as the japanese. clinton had not been told that, in korea, wives keep their family names. president kim young sams wife was named sohn myong suk. therefore, she should be addressed (称谓) as mrs. sohn.president clinton arrived in korea directly after leaving japan and had not changed his culture thinking patterns. his failure to follow korean customs gave the impression that korea was not as important to him as japan.in addition to koreans, some asian husbands and wives do not share the same family names. this practice often puzzles english-speaking teachers when talking with a pupils parents. they become puzzled about the students correct last name. placing the family name first is common among a number of asian cultures.mexican naming customs are different as well. when a woman marries, she keeps her family name and adds her husbands name after the word de (of). this affects how they fill in forms in the united states. when requested to fill in a middle name, they generally write the fathers family name. but mexicans are addressed by the family name of the mother. this often causes puzzlement.here are a few ways to deal with such difficult situations: dont always think that a married woman uses her husbands last name. remember that in many asian cultures, the order of first and last names is reversed (颠倒). ask which name a person would prefer to use. if the name is difficult to pronounce, admit it, and ask the person to help you say it correctly.25. the story of bill clinton is used to _.a. improve us-korean relations b. introduce the topic of the textc. describe his visit to korea d. tell us how to address a person26. when a woman marries in korea, she _.a. continues to use her family name b. uses her husbands given namec. shares her husbands family name d. adds her husbands given name to hers27. to address a married woman properly, youd better _. a. use her middle name b. use her husbands first name c. ask her which name she likes d. change the order of her names cteens dont understand the big fuss (小题大做). as the first generation to grow up in a wired world, they hardly know a time when computers werent around, and they eagerly catch the chance to spend hours online, chatting with friends. so what?but researchers nationwide are increasingly worried that teens are becoming isolated (孤寂), less skillful at person-to-person relationships, and perhaps numb (麻木) to the cheatings that are so much a part of the e-mail world. “and a teens sense of self and values may be changed in a world where personal connections can be limitless,” said sherry turkle.another researcher, robert kraut, said hes worried about the “opportunity costs” (机会成本) of so much online time for youths. he found that teens who used computers, even just a few hours a week, showed increased signs of loneliness and social isolation. “chatting online may be better than watching television, but its worse than hanging out (闲逛) with real friends,” he said.todays teens, however, dont see anything strange in the fact that the computer takes up a central place in their social lives. “school is busy and full of pressure. theres almost no time to just hang out,” said parker rice, 17. “talking online just kills time.”teens say they feel good about what they say online or taking the time to think about a reply. some teens admit that asking someone for a date, or breaking up, can be easier in message form, though they dont want to do so. but they insist theres no harm.28. the researchers argue that _.a. teens may develop a different sense of valuesb. nothing is wrong with teens chatting onlinec. teens can manage their social connectionsd. spending hours online does much good to teens 29. teens think that talking online can help them _.a. use computers properly b. improve their school workc. develop an interest in social skills d. reduce their mental pressures30. the text mainly deals with _.a. teens pleasant online experience b. teens computer skills and school workc. the effects of the computer world on teens d. different opinions on teens chatting online 31. the purpose of the text is to _.a. describe computer research results b. draw attention to teens computer habitsc. suggest ways to deal with problem teens d. discuss problems teens have at school dlast year more than one million filipinos worked abroad as servants, nurses, sailors and in other difficult but low-paid jobs. southeast asians leave their poorer countries for their richer neighbours.many of these wage-earners return in the end. in the meantime, they send home huge amounts of money in the philippines case, over 10 % of its gdp. between january and november, the amount was up 18 % on the same period of 2005. poverty and unemployment are still high in the philippines and other labour-exporting (劳务输出) countries. they would be far worse but for this outflow of bodies and inflow of dollars. as for those asian countries that import (输入) labour, as in europe, falling birth rates mean they are going to need more foreign workers.on january 13th leaders of the association of southeast asian nations (asean) signed an agreement to help migrant (流动的) workers with the realization that the flow of labour between their countries is a growing problem that they cannot blame on outsiders. a 2005 study showed that 8.4 million southeast asians worked outside their home countries, but this did not include the huge numbers of indonesians doing so without papers. so the true total is probably rather higher.of the ten asean countries, the philipines, indonesia, myanmar, cambodia, vietnam and laos export labour, singapore and brunei import it, and thailand and malaysia do both. sziraczki of the uns international labour organization points out that, in the next ten years, the total labour force of the worker-exporting countries should grow by about a third. it makes sense to work on the problem before it gets out of control.people in the receiving countries seem to be worried about competition for their jobs. most thais said their government should admit no more foreign workers, and a few thought otherwise. even in singapore, just over half of people are against admitting more foreign workers. malaysians think that the increase in foreign workers has worsened crime rates (犯罪率).32. it can be inferred from the case of the philippines that _.a. the country is asias main source of migrant workersb. labour exports lead to a 10 % growth of its gdpc. the outflow of labour helps solve its social problemsd. the country both exports and imports labour force33. the flow of labour is a growing problem because _.a. there is a greater flow of labour than reportedb. more indonesians work abroad without papersc. some countries suffer from low birth ratesd. the asean is against admitting foreign workers34. for the labour-importing countries, the flow of labour may lead to _.a. higher birth rates b. lower crime ratesc. greater money inflows d. stronger job competition35. the writer of the text seems to _.a. support the flow of labour between countriesb. report fairly on the question of labour flowc. express his worries over the aseans decisiond. regard the outflow of labour as a serious problem 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。forgivenessto forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. when someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. however, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. people who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research._36_ try the following steps:calm yourself. _37_ you can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.dont wait for an apology. many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. they may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things the same way. _38_ keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.take the control away from your offender (冒犯者). rethinking about you hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. instead of focusing on your piled feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you._39_ if you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love. you may want to write a letter to yourself from your offenders point of view.dont forget to forgive yourself. _40_ but it can rob you of your self-confidence if you dont do it.a.why should you forgive? b.how should you start to forgive?c.recognize the benefits of forgiveness.d.try to see things from you offenders angle.e.for some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.f.to make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique.g.if you wait for people to apologize, you
